"A NIGHT IN MADRID"
THE NIGHT BEFORE MURDER " was the
1936 variety of Night Before Christmas for
the people of Madrid. The .next day Spanish rebels let
loose as their present to the citizen's the heaviest bom
bardment of the siege.
While you and your family gathered around the
tree, families in Spain—or the members who were still
alive—hunted for shelter from the bombs and shells.
While you wondered whether you should eat an
other piede of turkey or save apace for plumb pudding,
people in Spain wondered whether they should save a
little of their meagre food supply or eat it while they
were still alive.
While "Sis" laughed over her new doll Spanish
mothers were weeping over dead children.
Tonizht one of those mothers will be here to speak.
With her will be two men, Prof. Pedro Villa Fernandez,
of New York University, and the Rev. Julian Hamlin, of
Nearly every important student and faculty orga
nization is represented on the local Spanish Relief Com
mittee which is sponsoring this meeting. It is being held
to enlist support for the drive for food, clothing, and
supplies for the civilian population of Spain which the
committee opens today.
Every student and every faculty member should be
:.)iitaiffini . iielted in this Meeting. InternationaLur . is
actually going on in Europe today. By the time of the
!exneetingi al'ileehiStiation , of war 'may •have.been-made.`,'
All three of the speakers tonight can tell you dra
matically'aboutthe causes, the nature, and the possible
results of that war.
Years ago we fondly believed that war in Europe
did not directly conern,us. The last war demonstrated
how false that belief was.
Everyone. who wants to relieve suffering and every
one who wants to know more about a subject- of vital
significance to himself should attend tonight's meeting.
And that includes just about everybody.
THE CASE OF GLENN FRANK
BECAUSE the University of Wisconsin, like our
own college, is a state institution, the fight there
between President Glenn Frank and Governor Phillip
LaFollette is of particular interest to us.
So many issues are involved in the case and so
many false ones have been raised that it is difficult to
judge the merits of each side. Phrases like "academic
freedom" come as glibly to the lips of reactionary edu
cators as does "freedom of the press" to the columns of
newspapers of the reactionary press.
Briefly here arc the facts of the case: Glenn Frank
has been president of Wisconsin for nine years. His
administration has not been completely satisfactory, but
it was not until recently that there was any concerted
more to get rid of him.
The presidency of the University is under the con
trol of the Board of Regents, a body of fifteen men ap
pointed by the governor of the state. Ten of the present
Board were appointed by LaFollette and eight of these
are in favor of dismissing Frank.
The question that this brings up is: "Are these
men opposed to Frank because he is an unsatisfactory
president or is it because he is a Republican, active in
politics, while they, and the man who appointed them,
are•members of the Progressive party?"
In either ease it would seem that there is no ques
tion of "academic freedom" involved since Frank is not
under fire for anything that he has said or for any
theories or ideas which he has professed. There is, how
ever, a very real question of "political domination."
We have tried in this country to keep our educn-
tional system free from political control. If, when the
Frank case is finally settled, it seems apparent that we
have failed to do this, then we need to reorganize the
system so that politicians can no longer control the af
fairs of a state university. But if an examination of
the facts shows that Frank is not fit to continue as
president, then 'his supporters (and it is interesting to
note how many men like Mark Sullivan and Walter
Lippmann who kept their typewriters discreetly in their
eases when Yale fired liberal Jeiorne Davis are now com
ing to the defense of Republican .Frank) should stop
their shouting about politics in education
Interlude
We were pretty hard up for copy last night so
wandered around to the Hugh Beaver room where a
meeting of the Spanish Belief Cornmittee was going
on. Some of t} more impassioned youths who guide
the destinies of this great sheet have been yapping at
our heels for weeks to get down off our Olympian
height and see what goes on about this
Somewhat tongue-in-eheekishly we listened to
the proceedings and gradually our tongue relaxed
(we won't carry that figure too far). What went on
at the Committee meeting was pretty boring—for
us. Dry stuff. about publicity, collection systems and
little details about the mass meeting tonight. The
atmosphere sort of got us though—all these earnest
people doing a hell ora lot of damn hard and time-
_Woodrow W. IHerly '3B
Francis H. Szymczok '3B
devouring work for Spain's devastated civilians whom
they never saw, probably never will. Why? -
What the hell do we care if Spain gets blown
dear off th emap, we here in America? What the hell,
we're safe!
But arc we? There's an old saying: "There, but
for the grace of God, go I." It's pretty true, too
We got to thinking about Spain, while the Com
mittee settled down to a hot argument about tactics
It came to our mind that the hottest fighting in Ma-
drill is centered about the University of Madrid—
("There, but for the grace of God.")
It's sort of hard to picture machine guns in Old
Penn State
Main though. A school the size of the U of Madrid
would have a college paper too ... and probably a
colunthist
We looked around the room again, at the earnest
faces of the men and women, co-eds, students giv
ing of their time and efforts to bring some measure of
relief to the hundred's of thousands of people who
are being subjected to poverty and desolation by the
rain of lead from the skies over Spain ("Every Time
It Rains It's Raining—Death from the skies."—Span
ish version) and we wondered.
Is this then the true end of education? The
raison cl'etre for Penn State and other institutions
of learning? To gain a feeling of kinship, of respon
sibility, of fellowship with persons less fortunate
than ourselves and to help our fellow humans even
iP there across miles of ocean—in Spain? Could a
higher eiiucation - liaial" . gretiter, - , more .noble'=aim
- thitn:this?:We doubt it. , ' """'
Penn State has a tradition—the "hello spirit."
Let's enlarge its scope a bit. Over in Madrid stu
dents, like ourselves, "searchers for truth," are de
prived of all that we have here. Yes, even of life it-
self! We can sympathize with ,them, sure. We can
do more. We can attend the mass meeting tonight and
we can given to the local fund. "Hello" Spain!
At Cornell, R. 0. T. C. students who did not re
turn their uniforms at the end of the year sent them
to Spain.
At Vassar, groups are knitting clothing for
Spain's dispossessed.
At colleges all over the country large sums of
money have been raised to alleviate the misery of
war torn Spain.
What will Penn State do?
Pickups
Overheard at the Committee meeting: "Not guns,
but food, clothing, medical supplies ... The headquar
ters in Nevi York with which we here in State Col-
lege are working presented three ambulances to Spain
at a huge meeting in Madison Square Garden last
Monday night .. . They have a warehouse where all
garments which are not in good condition are repaired
before being sent ... Thousands of pieces of clothing
sent already . .. Cold weather in Spain has aggra
vated the terrible conditions immeasurably . . .
There's no risk; the medical units, clothing and sup
plies are put on Spanish ships in New York harbor
... U. S. seamen run no risks, are not involved .. .
First time in the history of war that a civilian popu
lation has been subjected to a merciless and continu
al bombardment from the air ... Aid is needed des-
