Circular
The circular quoting old Col
legian articles to attack Arthur
H. Reede, Democratic candidate
for Co'ngress, brought vigorous
protests yesterday both from
lieede and from several groups on
campus.
"Distributed by mail, the circu
lar was published by a group
calling itself the "Ex-Service
men's Civic' League of Blair.
County, Penna." It carried six
reproductions of the Daily Col
legian and old Penn State Col
legian nameplates, and implied
that Reede .was "subversive,"
a "pacifist," a "radical," and
"Communist." It quoted articles
as far back a 5.1933.
Charge Big Expenditures
Another election development
was the announcement' by the
Democratic state committee that
it would submit figures on Re
publican campaign expenditures
in Centre, Blair, and Clearfield
counties to a Senate investigating
committee. The Democrats
charged expenditures "at least
five times more than normal" in
the primaries.
Reede, professor of economics
and commerce at the College, re
leased a statement citing the
pamphlet for what he called "li
belous references to me." Other
protests against the circular in
cluded a bi-partisan statement
from 85 of Reede's colleagues at
the College, one from the Penn
State Christian association, and
one from the Daily Collegian.

Erickson Opposes Appropriations
For Delegates To NSA . Congress
Senior class president . John
Erickson, speaking before cabinet
Thursday night, called the NSA
student congress held in August
merely "an intellectual discussion
of political philosophies."
Erickson's charge resulted when
NSA representative William Klis
anin stated that in his opinion
Penn State "missed something"
by not sending its alloted seven
delegates to the nine-day conven
tion, in Michigan.
Cabinet had previously passed
a report on the convention pre
sented by Klisanin.
Accusations
Erickson based his accusation
on the report as discussed by
Klisanin, which he said, did not
list achievements of the type
which would have warranted
spending money to make the trip.
Erickson said that, for his part,
he was glad cabinet had not ap
propriated money to send a dele
gation to the convention.

inately $350 would have been re
quired for the seven delegates.
Davis also pointed out that cab
inet agreed last spring to allocate
money for projects on this cam
pus which would acquaint stu
dents with the NSA instead of
spending the money for 'the con
vention trip.
According to Klisanin's report,
some of the topics discussed by the
delegates were student rights and
cooperation with foreign students
through the World Student Ser
vice fund and othermeans. The
convention also condemned the
taking of loyalty oaths as a pre
requisite to teaching, etc.
