PAGE FOUR Editorial Opinion A Step Badkwards In establishing a housing list which Is not npn-dis criminatory, the State College Chamber of Commerce may feel it has made a mpve forward in the town Housing problem, but at the time it has taken a step back ward in the fight to eliminate discrimination in town housing. ; On the surface jit would appear that this list should prove beneficial to both landlords in search of a tenant ' and to -students who desire suitable living quarters. - But in actuality it may prove beneficial only to those ? landlords who cannot get! their names cin the non-discrimi , natory USG list and to those students who are well scrubbed whites. Thus, while providing a service* to some students, the. chamber will be doing a disservice to those students who may not be accepted as tenants by some landlords because of race, religion or creed. ! More important than the service of a housing list is the principle that a student must not be subjected, to barrassment and affront to human dignity by being re fused a place to. live because of his cblor or nationality. The list being by the Chamber of Commerce can cause this kind of embarrassment and affront. 1 " | Just last year the housing list maiijtairfed by the dean of men’s office, in which landlords were not questioned about any discriminatory practices, was abolished. ! Student government' then established a non-discrimi natory list on which only those landlords who .vouched tfiat they did not engage:in discriminatory practices were listed. 'ln an attempt to further close any avenues available for the continuation of discriminatory housing in Stale College, The Daily Collegian refused, to accept advertising from landlords who would not subscribe io a non-dia criminatory practice clause. We can find no fault with, the idpa of a housing list sponsored by the Chamber of Commerce. However, such a list must insure-tha't it does not allow discrimination to be perpetuated through it. Therefore,j we strongly object to this list in its present form, becadse in effect it con dones discrimination by State Collegi landlords. f A Student-Operated Newspaper S 7 Years of.

ROBERTS Associated Preps News Analyst In order to win j over the op ponents of the wide powers President is asking for- use in dealing with problems raised by the European Comnpon Mar ket, the administration is prom ising that there vyill never be any tariff eliminations. except those which contribute to an increase in American exports. There is a belief, ' however, that arrangements can be made with Europe for the eventual elimination of tariffs on per haps 80 per tjent of trade be tween the two areas, that being' the estimated amount of prod ucts on both sides which ac tually complement,'rather than being in competition with, the economy of the other.' , The automobile industry is being died ai a case in point.'

European tariffs on imports are tfcjree or four times as high as, those, imposed by the United‘Slates, yet are not a. major factor in export diffi culties which > are more in volved with styling, size and heavy gasoline consumption of American cars. | j And the industry is constant ly setting records despite the influx of foreign) carii This is cited as an of how Letters Foianini's Apparel Draws Comment TO THE EDITOR: It is def inately a shame that our stu dent government president is unable to wear a coat and tie to the meeting of USG. This is another precedent set by our] unconventional leader. It appeals that he is not trying t«i impress anyone or gain status for himself. He seems to be more interested in getting the job done. This is something, hitherto untried in student jjovemment. Are wa the students going to sit complacently by whUo some do-gooder tries to accomplish something irr student govern-' menl? Perhaps he should settle back and accept tl>e status and rec ognition due; him in ; this im portant position, and; perhaps he should wear a coat and tie. After all, all the big men on campus wea? them. It is .an outward manifestation of im portance. —Susan Chubak '64 WDFM Schedule SATUKDAT , i:00 Texaco Metropolitan Opera "fc :00 Hews * 6 rO5 Saturday at State •:&5 WeatheraciJpe 7:00 Hi-Fi Opt -h Hotiae t*oo Offbeat • 1:00 KTGOOB l:lt Kincr'a Carner lie clicking shutter Has Has spring really arrived with its warm days and periods of showers, so typical to the State College area?
