'Fjoi^n Graduate oCounaelor. Friday, December 12, 1941 Not For Glory This .will be a ,long war. President Roosevelt, in his speech Tuesday tiight, warned America to prepare for a hat'd and long .siege. Jfe. .called. dppn, J&e. nation, fo,ftpipvr all its .rpspurpes into. J?u iMftyg a w ar ,f,rpnt which can withstand the .blitzkriegs df tfhe .Nazis. In establishing a sound war machine which will compactly endure the .onslaught pf bur enemies, the colleges of the United States will play an important part.. From the .cpllpges the nation •wiil ■,sxsyr its ne,w WP.SPpns, its .coordination .pi yast resources, and the training of social and economic. leaders. Because of the threat of a long war, colleges must , plan to operate on a pre-war basis—that of educating,men to direct the nation’s war industry. These men most step into .jrnpprtant positions to aid the ‘‘war of tomorrow.” ..Not pnly must the nation prepare physically for the.long war, but.it must train its manpower for increasing production of ships, tanks, and air planesr Colleges must turn out men who ajre capable of confidently stepping into industry to speed up ; production. These m'en. must have not only factual knowledge, but they must be able to plan and, foresee the needs of the w.ar. Th|e nation recognizes the need pf cpllege trained men in its war program. Our country can easily find a boy for the trenches but she runs .up against a stone wall when there is a lack of chemists to supply the. gunpowder or a need for petroleum research men to help con serve the oil supply. " Colleges, in a few months, will begin to find a scarcity in men students—students who believe that they must tenter the jvar now. These stud ents whp .leave will mean more to the “yvar ,pf tomorrow” as chemists, engineers, and petroleum engineers than-five of their kind in .the trenches. What they don’t realize is that there ate men needed to fight the war behind the-trenches. No man wants to be called a coward. No man Wants to be called a quitter. On the other hand! no man .likes ..to-be terndgd a fppl. And “he is a fool whp chaoses to serve ,his .country, his .own way.” Penn f-ltate is considered one of the key .defense •units of:the nation. Penn State offers more re search and , .defense training to industry than probably .any. pther college. .It’s .extension serv ice alonte jis responsible fpr .pjaie-weventh of > the total national .program and this year’s services will train approximately SOAPO men in national defense work for industry. ' Penn State needs its students. According tp President flalph .p. iHetzpl, “Th e ‘b.sst .spbg .col leges .can do is . maintain a normal 'To act impulsively at : this,time, np matter;ihow.npibie the motive, might do morej .harm-than .good. This is the time to keep our heads, to work ser ipusly .at pur given assignments, and by .doing so guarantee .our..unity, .strengthen .OW dfltapfc, and assure the. preservation .of the .democratic way.” We say, “If .Uncle Sam wants .you tp fight in the trenches, in the air, or at sea, y.pu ! li get your chance to fight for glory. Until ..then, if y.ou must fight, fight for national defense.” Plug! Elections are meant to be democratic. Some times, we wonder if they aren’t autocratic. The mural voting, which decides the dispensation of three class funds, was so Light yesterday that hardly more than 100 votes were cast. Even a hardened politician would shudder at that num ber. It’s easy to say yes or no.
