Pechan Bill
Called an
inquisition 7
By Lynn Kahanowitz
Termed not a loyalty oath, but
a loyalty inquisition by Scott
Keyes, professor of economics,
the Pechan loyalty oath bill was
discussed at a public forum last
night.. . '
Neal Riemer, professor of. po
litical-science, termed-the bill
unnecessary, ineffective, and dan
gerous. He., said full-fledged sub
versives would not hesitate to go
underground'where they will be
come more dangerous. Also he
said, the bill will, force people to
get out of organizations which
are temporarily ruled by - commu
nists.
•The bill endangers- academic
freedom in providing for the sus
pension of a faculty member of
whom there is- a reasonable doubt
as to his . loyalty, said Riemer.
The most obnoxious part of the
bill is in the-determination of the
standards in ascertaining, reason
able doubt, he said.
Requires Questionnaires
Presidents of state supported
institutions - must, according to
the bill, turn in reports of the
loyalty of their staffs to the gov
ernor who controls the state’s
finances, Riemer pointed out.-
In order to collect the neces
sary information, the president
must either have his faculty fill
out questionnaries or pry into
their political lives, Reimer ob
served.
Col. Guy Mills, justice of ‘'the
peace, said that the oath only
requires an employee of . the
state to swear that he 'will not
become a member of any organ
ization whose purpose is to over
throw his employer. ; Mills.;;,said ;

Both Nuri Eren and Dr. Jan-Albert Goris, speakers in last night’s

- Eren, member of the Turkish
blamed most Americans’, skepti
cal attitude towards the organi

of thinking. He said that Ameri
cans have become so accustomed
to gadgets simplifying their life,
that the habit has permeated to
their mental processes also.
UN Different Gadget
Eren /continued the analogy by
stating'that when the UN, which
was a totally different gadget
from anything Americans were
used to, bogged down soon after
its inception, the American peo
ple lost confidence in the ability
of the organization to preserve
peace. '
The UN charter, Eren pointed
out, was formulated on the theory
that the world was ready for
peace. Thus most of the empha
sis was placed on the establish
ment of social, political, and eco
nomic groups, with the hope be
ing to reihove the’ causes of war.
But it soon became apparent
the Russians were seeking .new
territorial conquests, Eren ex
plained. By preying on the mis
ery left in the wake of the war
and creating new miseries among
the devastated people, they at
tempted to ruin the peace organ
ization of the UN, he said.
UN Changes Objective
The free world refused to eval

Eren said. Gradually the shift in
emphasis came about and the UN
