Hoies for Peace

fesses that his life's work is where his people need him most,

University
'Too ; ig i
For NSA
The University is "a little too
big" for the National Student As
sociation, Leonard Richards, the
Association of Independent Men's
delegate to the recent NSA re
gional convention, said Wednes
day night.
"It is true that NSA conventions
are broadening and interesting,
but the value just isn't there,"
Richards said in giving his con
vention report to the AIM Board
of Governors.
Richard said that the University
was the only large school repre
sented in this region of NSA.
"We were on two different
levels when we were discussing
student government problems,"
Richards said.
The delegates from small col
leges could not comprehend some
of the student government situ
ations at the University, he said.
As an example he cited the prob
lem of independent students ver
sus fraternities.
"It was inconceivable to the
delegates from smaller schools
that there was no friction be
tween independents and fraterni
ties," Richards said.
"Unless we can persuade some
other large school in the area to
join, NSA is not of particular
value to us," Richards said.
There was no discussion on his
report. Robert Solomon, Chairman
of the National Independent Stu
dent Association committee, re
ceived a vote of thanks from the
board for his services as commit
tee chairman.
William Johnson, third semester
pre-medical major, will take over
as NSA chairman.

CLE HERS
By ANN LEFT
rman of the Philippine delega
tion to the UN.
He wore a charcoal gray suit;
plain except for a small red in
signia on the la Pel which he
quietly explained was the Legion
of Honor—highest award of merit
that can be bestowed by the gov
ernment of France.
"It is true," the General said,
"that the present immediate pur
pose of the UN is to avoid World
War 111, but it has a more long
range and greater purpose than
that.
_ Mission Is Peace
"Its mission is world brother
hood and world peace," he said.
While this world brotherhood
and peace has been a dream of
mankind since the beginning of
time General Romulo said, the
UN has not yet been able to prove
if it is capable of fulfilling this
mission.
"The UN hasn't been given a
chance—either to fail dismally or
to succeed completely," •he said.
However, the General said, the
UN is already a decisive factor
in the world today, particularly
in the fight of communism versus
democracy.
World Judges
"The very fact that Russia is
in the TIN is a great achievement,"
he -said. "When Russia speaks in
the UN, and the way she acts and
re a c t s to our answers, let the
world judge for itself."
General Romulo said he has
been actively interested in the
problems of world government
ever since he did graduate work
in the United States and the
League of Nations was founded.
Was Disappointed
At that time, he said, he was
gravely disappointed that the U.S.
did not join the League. How
ever, he said, he was sure even
then that ultimately the con
science of the U.S. would . prevail
and she would take a place of
leadership in world government.
General Romulo answered free
ly any questions asked concerning
world affairs, but refused to com
ment on domestic issues, such as
Universal Military Training.
"As a guest enjoying the hos
pitality of your country," he said,
"I do not wish to comment on
your internal problems."
He said laughingly that he
didn't want to be accused of fol
lowing the Republicans or the
Democrats.

AIM Proposal
May Control
wri, , king Code
The proposed constitution of the
Association of Independent Men
will probably establish a board
of control to regulate drinking in
organized independent living un
its in town. AIM President Robert
Dennis told the AIM Board of
Governors Wednesday night.
Dennis said the provision would
be in keeping with a recent rul
ing of the Senate sub-committee
on social affairs which asked AIM
to enforce the social drinking
code in such houses.
There are no such houses, at
this time. Dennis said, but there
is a probability that some will
develop in the future, he said.
Beaver House was a house of this
type before it became affiliated
with the Interfraternity Council
this week.
Thomas Kidd, constitutional re
visions committee chairman, said
the proposed constitution would
be presented to the board early
in February.
