Students Should Meet Cliques Tomorrow
Lion and State Parties will hold clique meet
ings tomorrow night. Students who remember
that political parties are what their members
want them to be will attend one of the two
meetings.
These first few weeks of the semester have
been marked with charges and counter-charges
of corruption in politics. Practices which for
merly were only hinted have come to the stu
dents' attention, and the reactions were both
amazed and shocked. Now we are about to em
bark on the serious business of nominating and
electing class and class clique officers.. Now we
have two party cliques, both with legally elect
ed heads, looking forward to a long strong,
taxing— and honest—campaign:
Campus political parties, as any other campus
activity, are molded by the people who take
part in them. If students are apathetic enough
to regard politics as something not worth
bothering about, is it any wonder that “con
tinuing dynasties” of leadership develop among
the minority of students who are interested in
politics?
Political parties, to keep alive to keep pro
gressing, and yes, to keep honest, need new
blood. They need the freshmen class as a whole
to become actively interested in them and will
ing to work. And, even more, they need the
upperclassmen who “know the score,” know
what’s to be done on campus, but who, in the
past, have let someone else worry about how
student government is to work.
Clarifies CPA Status -
TO THE EDITOR: It is unfortunate that in his
recent criticism of the Central Promotion
Agency, Diehl McKalip did not bother to look
below the surface.
As in any new organization, certain bugs turn
up after a trial period of use. Perhaps, if he had
taken time to inquire rather than to criticize,
Mr. McKalip would have found out an earnest
effort being made within the agency to iron
out these defects.
At the present time, CPA is awaiting the com
pletion of the Hetzel Union Building wherein
is provided adequate operating space which it
presently lacks. New production equipment is
being secured so that CPA can finally provide
complete, inexpensive, and professional work.
Perhaps, again too, if the publication Mr. Mc-
Kalip represents had provided—as it did for
most other organizations—an informative ar
ticle in the beginning of the year; or perhaps
even if it had provided some coverage at pres
ent, it would not be necessary to give this ex
planation.
Last year was a period of orientation and
experiment. This fall has been devoted to cor
recting and strengthening the operations of the

Tomorrow night’s clique meetings will be
open to all students. There are very few en
graved invitations issued. It’s an open house.
Basically ihere's little difference between the
two parties; they both depend on their member
ship from semester to semester. Past records
are impressive but unimportant. It's the new
life, the new program each semester that de
termines their worth.
Students who complain about corruption,
who don’t like what they read and hear about
campus politics should try to do something
about it. The best way to work is from within.
Both parties need candidates. Both need com- ,
mittee members. Both are willing to give the'
opportunity to. work to those who sincerely
want it.
Under the new elections code, students must
' attend at least one party cliqiie meeting prior;
to the final nomination meeting. Party registra
tion will be conducted by the clique member
ship committees under ;the supervision of the
elections committee prior to the meetings to
morrow night. There will be no party member
ship lists until then.
. The number and calibre of students included
in those lists tomorrow night will determine the
quality of politics at the University this se
mester.
Anyone interested in bettering politics, bet
i tering student government, and bettering the
University will attend one of the two clique
meetings tomorrow night

On Committee of 50
TO THE EDITOR: Your recent (Thursday) edi
torial makes a few statements which , should be
cleared up. At no time did I refuse to release
the names of the Committee of 50. The first
time you asked for this information, you re
ceived it. At no time did our committee meet
in secret. A member of the press was present at
every meeting save one, and they were in
vited to that one.
As you know, a group of 50 people is too
large for working out policy matters. Hence,
we set up an executive committee from the
Committee of 50, and that group was named
< early in the game. We felt that it would serve
no purpose to release the names of the full
membership of the committee. However, when
we were asked to do so, we did.

Tension Mounts
In Israeli Dispute
By J. M- ROBERTS JR.
Associated Press News Analyst
The world has been so preoccupied recently with Southeast Asia,
Formosa, and the battle for Germany that growing tension between
Israel and the Arab states has attracted little attention.
Oddly enough, the tension has increased,in almost direct ratio
to talk of peace. . • i 1
Israel has been greatly disturbed by two factors the British
agreement to withdraw troops
from Suez, where they stood be
tween Israel and the Egyptian ar
my, and resumption of Anglo-
American arms shipments to the
Arab states.
On Sept; 17 the ambassadors of
the eight Arab states appealed to
the great powers to give them
greater military and economic aid
to deter Israel from any attack.
On Oct. 2 Britain offered to
sponsor peace talks, especially
between Jordan and Israel, de
signed to settle the border dis
putes which have led to so many
shootings.
This week Israel offered before
the United Nations to make non
aggression pacts with the Arab
states guaranteeing territorial in
tegrity and political independence,
banning all hostile acts and agree
ing to settle all disputes through
negotiations.
The only Arab reaction so far
was an immediate statement
on the floor of the General As?
sembly by the Egyptian dele
gate that "it is impossible for
one moment to consider the
peaceful intentions of Israel as
' genuine."
And there it is!
Israel is convinced that the
Arabs are interested in arms sole
ly to put themselves in position to
resume the war which was halted
in 1948 by a UN-negotiated armis
tice.
The Arabs are convinced that
Israel’s immigration policy, which
seeks -to concentrate most of the
world’s Jews in Palestine, means
that eventually the new state will
tend to burst its bounds, impinge
further on Arab lands. They see
in Israel’s dynamic development
the creation of a situation in the
Middle East almost identical to
the one created in Europe during
the last century by the rise of
Germany.
The suggestion has been made
ihai tension might be somewhat
relaxed, at least in the field of
religious differences, if Israel
permitted implementation of
the UN resolution of 1947 to
make Jerusalem an internation
al city with its shrines open to
aIL The Jews say the Arabs
killed off that idea, as they did
the original partition plan of
which it was a part, when they
resorted to wax in 1948. Jerusa-
SATURDAY; OCTOBER 9. 1954
the News
lem is now divided, with the
Jews holding the part in which ,
they are most interested.
One thing needed in connection
with the new arms shipments to
the Arabs is a renewal and new
emphasis on the Anglo-Freneh-
American post-armistice state
ment that-they wil countenance
any more war in ..'the area. They
have sufficient influence to, en
force it on Israel, especially be
cause of her economic dependence
on the United States. They might,
instead of selling arms to the
Arabs, put them on a lend-lease
basis with a threat to yank them
out if they are used for any ag
gressive purpose.
