On Congratulating the Republican Party
The Republicans are t,o be congratulated.
hast week the GOP suffered defeat in many
areas of the’country—defeats that reflected the
voters' disapproval of the current administra
tion. Immediately following the election the
propagandists of the party began searching for
an escape, a way out, a means of throwing the
blame for the losses from the administration.
Following the Republican losses recently in
' c 1” h District of Wisconsin, Ezra Taft Ben
son, -wr :t*ry of agriculture, was put on the
spot by these propagandists. He was the scape
goat for the party.
But the GOP workers have decided not to
. use a party scapegoat to cover the election
losses last week; they have a new plan based
on the idea that a purge of someone who is not
in ihe party is better than a purge of one who
is. So now the Republicans have found z new
way out—an escape by covering the facts of the
elections with political name-calling tactics.
Ex-President Truman has been selected as the
target of these tactics.
The charges against Mr. Truman are typical
of all unreasoning attacks these days; he is
being branded as a sympathizer with Commu
-nists.
These tactics of name-calling are familiar to
the American people. They are • the tactics of
a senator from Wisconsin. In allowing the party
On Re-evaluation
The recent request that men’s hat societies
revise their constitutions to consider current
evaluations of student activities deserves con
siderable thought by hat societies.
Activities are not static situations. From one
year to the next some activities increase their
scope of operation and require more and more
time. On the other hand, some activities may
in the course of a year decrease the scope of
iheir activities and may become 'little more
than hollow shells having only a once proud
name.
In the course of Penn State history, the ten
dency seems to be more toward constant ex
pansion of activities rather than steady con
traction. This is only natural considering the
continued growth of the College.
Situations off the campus may alter the local
activity scene. Solely for the purpose of ex
ample, consider the existence of a Veterans
Club. Shortly after World War 11, a Veterans
Club found its way onto the campus. As the
number of veterans on campus decreased, the
pressure for a Veterans Club fell off and was
not resumed until last spring.
The consideration of these and other trends
by hat societies for either extending or restrict
ing membership will be indication of an organ
ization's having life, rather than being a staid
institution existing only for the purpose of
existing.

to use these tactics. President Eisenhower may
find many critics who will say he is moving
towards the type of isolation minded scare
mongers that lurk on that side of the politics
fence.
Yes, ihe Republicans are io be congratulated.
They have learned a loi since they have been
in office. If is too bad ihe lessons have been
taught by such negative thinkers as the'junior
senator from Wisconsin.
Two Doors?
Yes, Virginia, there is more than one door to
Sparks Building.
There are even people who get to nine o’clock
classes at nine o’clock.
Of course, this is a fact your young mind may
not be able to conceive since your only ex
perience has been with the South basement
entrance. Have faith. Keep hunting. And may
be someday you'll be able to get into Sparks—
limbs intact, face unbruised, arms unscratched.
For the hope of the campus is in you, Vir
ginia, and your young friends.
God willing, there may yet be a day when
students enter Sparks by the front entrance.
Till then, Merry Christmas.

Safety Valve...
Who's in Who's Who
TO THE EDITOR: It seems from this observer’s
point of view that the nominations to Who’s
Who Among Students in American Universities
and Colieges was not representative of those
students who have devoted themselves to the
furtherance of the College through their extra
curricular activities.
By glancing through the list of those chosen,
it is not difficult to see that some of our most
important leaders were overlooked. This situ
ation was brought about because it was felt by
ihe selections committee that all members of
All-College Cabinet should be included in the
nominations, thus leaving only nine places for
at least 15 other deserving seniors . . . These
awards should be made on ihe basis of service
to the College, not as an extra recognition to
those . . . elected to cabinet ...
This system of selection is definitely not the
most ideal or practical method of nominating
the outstanding members of the senior class
for recognition ...
It might be well for All-College Cabinet to
set up a committee to study the situation as it
is now and come up with a definite procedure
... so that only our truly outstanding seniors
will be nominated without prejudice or criti
cism.

Interpreting the News
The Soviets Open.
Another Door
The Soviet Union, with renewed emphasis on tl\e danger she
fears from American bases abroad, once more has opened the door
for the Allies to pin her propaganda hide to the wall.
The charge that the American bases surrounding her are evidence
of intent to make war has been brought up repeatedly by the Reds.
It was part of the old Stalin line,
designed to shroud the well known
fact that the rest of the world was
almost completely demobilized—
that the U.S. had withdrawn even
its traditional quota of Marines
from China and was anxious to
surrender even her occupational
duties—when Russian actions.pro
duced world rearmamament.
Ever since then one of the
chief ideas of Western diplo
j mats has been that there would
be no peace until Russia with
drew her troops from eastern
Europe.
Efforts to do something about
it have centered around Austria,
which seemed the easiest. East
Germany has also been on the
agenda, though without much
hope. The guarding of supply
lines to these occupied areas is
the technical excuse for the main
tenance of heavy Red army con
centrations '' throughout eastern
Europe.
In the last few days Russia has,
in a formal note about German
negotiations' and in speeches by
top leaders—President Voroshilov,
Deputy Foreign Minister Vishiri
sky and Defense Minister Bulgan
in—harped heavily on the bases
theme.
The Allies have available an
’immediate answer, which could
force Russia once more lo dem
onstrate that she is interested
in words, not deeds. '
The Allies could offer a new
“Baruch plan,” similar to the one
offered in an effort to set up con
trol of atomic - weapons. .They
merely have to say to Russia:
“All right, let’s all agree to
withdraw all military forces be
hind their home boundaries as of
August 1939, and set up a neutral
observation and control commis
sion to see that everybody ac
tually does it, according to a pre
arranged schedule.”
. Some the Allies would be ner
vous about saying it. It would
stop them from rearming Western
Germany, for. France would never
agree to that without the presence
of American troops as a check on
German resurgance.
But the point is, they would •
never have to do it. There isn't
a chance in 10,000 that Russia
would agree. Eastern Europe
has demonstrated only too re
cently that the Kremlin hold
on the satellites is ho hold at

all without enforcement by Rus
sian troops. Russia would never
dare risk getting out of Man
churia, with-Japan on one flank
and a very doubtful Red China
on the other. The Red goose
would be cooked in North Ko
rea.
Slmes Explains
Deans' Jobs
At Luncheon
Dealing with student cases of
misconduct is only one of the mi
nor jobs handled by the Dean of
Men’s office, Frank J. Simes, dean
of men, told members of the Fac
ulty Luncheon Club at their week
ly meeting held at noon yester
day in the Hotel State College.
Although reports of flagrancy
on the part of students is the
cause of most of the attention fo
cused on the Dean’s office, indi
vidual student problems require
a greater amount of time, Simes
said.
Authorized excuses, financial
assistance, student withdrawals,
and academic problems are some
of the many problems brought to
the attention of the Dean and his
staff. Simes explained that the
Dean’s office cooperates with ad
visers, and counselors in attempt
ing to solve these problems.
Disciplinary action taken by the
Dean of Men’s office is a result
of thorough investigation, and is
an attempt to benefit both the
student and’the College, the dean
explained.
The office of the Dean of Men
feels that it is deficient in one re
spect, dealing with men who live
in town, Simes said. He added that
he felt there was definite need
for a program which would en
able the - town student to benefit
by the services offered by the
Dean’s office as much as do the
fraternity and dormitory men.
