Why resist your burning d Mrs. O'Leary's fast bur but when you see hard to resist, don't even make it easy t desires ... and a charg MAM AT LIBERTY By ARLINE LEWIS West Germany, almost 11 years after World War II, functions un- der an imposed democratic gov- ernment whose success is of prime importance. Walter Vogel of Stuttgart, Ger- many, studying on a Fullbright; scholarship, commented that to succeed in the experiment of de- mocracy, his country must have the help and understanding of the West. "Because of Germany's loca- tion," he said, "intercourse both diplomatic and economic with her neghbors is necessary." Studying Mechanical Engineering Vogel, 27, studying mechanical engineering, graduated from the Technical University of Stuttgart. Arriving in the United States for the first time this August, he speaks with only the barest trace of an accent. He attributes his excellent command of the language to high school studies and a two month visit to England. Growing up under the Hitler regime, the talludark-haired stu- dent was able to observe the con- fusion and uncertainty that reign- ed at the onset of the post-war government. "By the time the war ended most of the German people were relieved. They were convinced that defeat was imminent, and "noth- ing remained to be defended." Intellectual Disillusionment Intellectual disillusionment ac- companied the physical desolation. "Ideals had been destroyed and there was nothing, no one to be- lieve in." "The younger generation, men - U ilesi res? ri got her nothing, a smart suit or coat that's try. Our prices o satisfy your burning e account helps, too. ANN ARBOR and women from the age of 18 to 35, in particular, were confused. Having been reared in the ideol- ogy of the Third Reich, they saw their past condemned and their future dim," the visiting student said. Abstination from any politi- cal association was the immediate reaction. Younger Generation Apathetic Apathy clung to the younger people for at least five- years. Then improved economic condi- tions facilitated social contacts in youth movements and church groups. Through these agencies an interest in the political life of Germany was kindled. Vogel, who will participate in an ISA sponsored discussion entitled "Guinea Pigs in Democracy?" at 7:30 p.m. tomorrow, continued tracing the results of the Allied instituted de-nazification pro- gram. "The relief felt at the end of the war changed to resentment, POST-WAR GERMANY: Fulbright Scholar Discusses Nation's Problem CLEARANCE of CASUAL, SHOES Joyce Casuals * Old Maine Trotters * Town & Country 685 and the United States lost quite a bit of prestige," he said "Democracy," the engineering student remarked, "is safeguarded in the present government by Ger- many's temporary Constitution, the Basis Law, which insures Civil rights, a democratic party system, a, more responsible Parliament, and in general attempts to alleviate the weakness that allowed Hitler's assumption of power. Orientation to Government Equally important as the politi- cal reforms, is the attempt to encourage the politically shy Ger- man to take an interest and re- sponsibility in the governing of his country. "The average Ger- man," commented Vogel, "doesn't like to be in the spotlight." Orientation towards government has been necessarily integrated in- to the educational system. School children spend several hours a week learning how their govern- ment works and often observing i in action. Germany has no roots for de mocracy, no great national heroe, or historically sanctioned principl around which to rally her politica fervor. A responsible youth awar of the means and ends of thei governme'nt 'may well provide th link to secure democracy. Michigros Parade Bill Miller, Michigras parade co-chairman, announced that a list of all men's and women's houses working on the parade will appear today and Friday in the Michigras office in the Union. Miller encourages represen- tatives of all houses not yet signed up to consult the list and make arrangements to join forces with any house that does not have a partner. Assembly Workshop analysis,v Michigan State University Con- ference and Assembly Ball were among the topics discussed at the Assembly Dorm Council meeting Monday at the League. The appropriateness of having an Assembly Workshop at this time of year was left open for suggestions or criticisms from As- sembly members. It was agreed that the discus- sions were excellent but better audience participation could be achieved by more publicity and by extending open invitations to in- dependent women on campus. Some of the members thought it was a bad time to have the Workshop because of the strain of final exams which linited the number of girls who could attend. MSU Conference All house presidents are invited to attend the Michigan State Uni- versity Conference to be held Feb. 24-25. A meeting will be held before the conference to propose discussion topics pertinent to Uni- versity functions and activities. Fire hazard of candles at the Christmas formals was one of the topics discussed at the Board of Governors meeting. The Board announced that defi- nite plans have been drawn up for the new Womens Dorm. The length of construction time for the Dorm will be from 16 to 18 months. Also getting under way are the plans for a new Coed rooming house. The Student Planning Committee met with the architect to discuss proposed construction plans.- All independent houses have been asked to plan house activities for the evening of Assembly Ball.- Assembly Ball general chairman is. Sandra Marx. The rest of the committee will be announced soon. Orientation Leaders Orientation leaders are needed for second semester. If you are interested contact Pat Mooney. The question of replacing As- sembly representatives by corridor representatives was left open for member discussion.+ It was thought that corridor representatives are an important1 link in the chain of communica- tion and should have more to do' with Assembly directly. Nothing definite was decided upon.+ 0 * * * JGP-There will be a meeting of the Junior Girls Play program committee at 5 p.m. today in the League. * * * J-HOP TICKETS - Tickets for J-Hop may be purchased from 1 to 5 p.m. today and tomorrow at the Administration Building.
