Students Initiated
SU Fee Campaign
(Ed Note: This is the third in a series of fiva
editorials designed to present the background
and clarify the issues on a subject which has
been the issue of much discussion, the pro
posed Student Union building and the $7.50
student fee recommended to the College Board
of Trustees by All-College Cabinet and ap
proved by the trustees, in 1950.)
111. Student Representation
The charge that students were never consulted
on the Student Union assessment looks pretty
shabby at this stage, since it was the students
. who initiated the SU campaign, and students
who carried it through to its conclusion through
13 years of hard work. The charge .becomes even
more shabby in view of the fact that there were
five students on the College's Student Union
committee.
The charge becomes somewhat more ragged
in view of the fact that as early as Nov. 11, 1949
a 13-man committee of All-College Cabinet was
appointed to study the SU matter. On it were
the All-College president, the presidents of the
Association of Independent Men, the Interfra
ternity Council, Panhellenic Council, Leonides.
the freshman and sophomore classes, etc.
It would seem to us that this is a reasonable
cross-section of student opinion.
How is the student body fo be consulted on
such problems? Should the SU committee have
held a convocation of 10,000 students in Rec
reation Hall? The republican representative
system of government under which we func
tion has worked as well as can be expected in
'a mass society. It worked well this time too.
Band Played Red
From Harrisburg we learn that the marching
band of post 23, American Legion, played sev
eral numbers in the rotunda of the state capitol
in support of the Pechan loyalty bill.
We have never heard the post band perform,
but we are quite certain that its music probably
made much more sense than the arguments of
some of the proponents of the loyalty oath.
We wonder too if the band played "The Only
Red We Want is the Red in the Red, White,
and Blue"?

Britain Scuttles
Whether Britain knows it, or not, she is doing
a very nice, job of scuttling the North Atlantic
Treaty Organization troop program.
Spurred on by selfish national interests,
Britain has refused to let her troops partici
pate in a joint troop setup with the Western
European nations because she would have to
giie up some of her sovereignty to make the
program work.
Under the , NATO agreement, the European
nations set up a combined troops system oper
ated by a coordinator chosen by representatives
on the troop control board who are in turn
chosen by the participating countries. Thus
Britain would have some say, but, as she points
out, not the whole say onhow her troops would.
be used.
Since Britain is' the strongest nation in
Western Europe, the combined troop organiza
tion may as well be forgotten because the other•
countries are now taking Britain's lead and
dropping out.. Had Britain taken the lead and
advanced• the cause of the troop program, the
other nations would have followed suit.
The combined' troop organization is an inte
gral part of the NATO program,. a part of the
program without which NATO will become
loose and ineffectual. Just what will become
of the troop program now that is has been
scuttled by Britain is not clear.
It is difficult to understand just why Britain
chose to drop out of the program rather than
let her troops cooperate with those of other
Western European nations. Surely Brit4in real
izes that if Europe is in danger, then she too will
be in danger and might as well throw in her lot
with the others.
There is always the: hope that Britain will
reconsider, especially if the United States insists
on reconsideration, for Britain is about to ask
the U.S. for another billion dollar loan.
But whether 'she thinks it over or. not,
Britain has shown that she has no confidence
in working and cooperating with other nations
for a . common goal—ift this case Western
European security. She has all but scuttled
the troop program. Let's hope she can find her
way _clear in the future to drop the old pre-
World War I nationalisni and stand . with the
other nations of the world in international
brotherhood.

Sources in, the Political Science departmenVwho prefer not to
be quoted, feel that opponents of the Pechan - loyalty' oath bill have
profited by the move to submit the bill to a bi-partisan committee.
It is significant, according to these sources, that the bill could not
muster sufficient strength for either party to take a unified stand
on. the measure.
Had the bill been voted upon •
yesterday, as wa s expected,
most observers felt the bill de
finitely would have passed. In
what form the bill will come .
out of the committee is un
certain, but there will surely
be some changes made— for
the good, we hope.
- Incidentally, the Daily Colle
gian feature editcr was in Har
risburg yesterday on a class trip
and happened to talk with some
of the le g islators. When it was
mentioned that she was on the
rally Collegian staff, she reports
that several of the legislators•
