Barbarism is not a German, a Japanese, or more recently a Rus- sian characteristic; it is, unfor- tunately a characteristic of man. I am willing to swear in any court that I have never been, am not now, nor ever intend to be- come, either a Communist or a Nazi. I only hope that I will not .r be designated a war criminal, and shot, after the next war, by who- ever happens to win. -Harold Wolf * * * China Policy... To the Editor: THE FAR EAST should be con- sidered with the same import- ance as other areas. After all, Communism is a global problem. In the nations of Asia, there ex- ists great strategic importance, much potential manpower and many vital raw materials, all of which would be crucial in the event of an all-out-war. Granted that the cost of a strong far east- ern program would be consider- able, it should be remembered that we are spending a great deal in the European program. In com- parison to Europe, only a trickle of fmilitary and economic aid has been given to Formosa. Yet those who favor limitations or reductions in the European program are labeled isolationists, while those who favor increased aid to the Nationalists are regarded as desiring an ex- parded -war. The United States policy toward China has been a long succession of blunders. It began with the Yalta agreement which enabled Russia to get control of Manchuria for the benefit of the Chinese Communists. Another blunder was our failure to supply a miltary mission in China to coordinate and improve the efficiency of the Na. tionalistuarmy, as we did in Greecs and Turkey. Trhe Marshall mis- sion was a ridiculous and totally unrealistic approach to the prob- lem. In seeking to unify the Na- tionalists and the Communists we were playing directly into the Communists' hands, since Com munist infiltration into the eas European governments led to their downfall. Chiang should be com- mended for turning the program down. After Chiang refused to go along with Marshall's program, the U.S. added insult to injury by cutting off all aid to the National- C ists for nine months. When the n military aid was resumed, it camex too slow, 'too little and too late r to save Chiang. If we fail to help free China, r within the next several years seri-e ous consequences may occur. First, Chinese soldiers may be sent to invade such important countries t as Indochina, Malaya, India andr Japan. Secondly, a complete con- 1 solidation of Communist powert may eventually occur in China.I Thirdly, in the event of World War III, Russia would have additional manpower from the Chinese, part of which could be used in Europe. -Ed Levenerg, '52 S* * Dining Classroom . . To the Editor: T HE DAILY series of articles on Ann Arbor restaurants hasr been very interesting. In the con-1 luding article, Francis C. Shie,1 manager of University Service En- terprises, is quoted as saying "The dining room is as much a part of the educational process as the classroom." This can be used to argue, as hea does, in favor of forcing students to pay for Residence Hall meals regardless of whether theymeat there or not, so that economies of mass buying and cooking can be passed on to students. It must be equally educational for students to eat out with their many friends. 1They should be able to do so with- out being subjected to the penalty of paying for two meals while in- creasing the food waste because their appetites take them out of the dorm. Many educational dis- cussions take place over a restaur- ant meal. A broad social relation- ship should take students away from routine habitation of dorm living. Meal time is a grand time - to enjoy a different meal and to be y with non-dorm friends. It would be much more educa- - tional to allow Resident Hall stu- e dents the freedom of eating where e they please with whom they - please. Instead, these students t must conform to narrowly regi- mented eating schedules and food that receives similar preparation day after day. The students should be allowed to eat in different places in order to avoid the tire- some routine of scheduled eating of scheduledly prepared foods. This could be done easily by signing up for meals a'weeknin advance. From the University's argu- ments, however, it appears that their dining rooms fear allowing students their natural freedom of choice. If the Resident Halls just serve half-way decent meals they would not have to worry about most of the Ann Arbor competi- tion. University mass buying pow- er would still be far greater than the local restaurant's and econo- mies still maintained. The object is not to make money on the din- ing rooms, although there has never been proof that a profit isn't made. The point to be made is that students should be allowed their choice in eating their meals. What objection could there be to insti- tuting a policy where the student is not penalized for eating out? -R. C.
