CIVIC LEAGUE AND
SOCIALISTS CLASH
Friction Caused
By Misunderstanding
An apparent misunderstanding
between the Civic League and the
Socialist Club recently resulted in
a general confusion of facts re'
garding the unfortunate incident
that came as a consequence of this
misunderstanding.
The Civic League had, about a
week before its regular meeting,
arranged for Dr. Williams to ad'
dress its members. Meanwhile
Dr. Campbell, a prominent De-troit
Socialist, became available to
the Socialist Club, which learned
that he would be here on Wed-nesday,
March 15. The Civic
League was asked by the Socialist
Club to permit Dr. Campbell to
speak before its membership on
that' date, the date for which Dr.
Williams had already been sched-uled.
Stuart Sales, president of
the Civic League, suggested that,
since it was impossible for the
Civic League to change its speak-er
at that late time, the two clubs
should have a joint meeting at the
Playhouse on another date, and
hear Dr. Campbell.
Both Men Speak
A member of the Socialist
group, evidently misconstruing
Sales’ suggestion, requested Dr.
Williams not to address the Civic
League; and the Socialist Club
then planned to hear Dr. Camp-bell
with an audience augmented
by the Civic League. Several
members advertised the coming
meeting on bulletin boards and
blackboards. The Civic League
objecting to the general tone of
these announcements, explained
the situation to Dr. Williams, who
accordingly spoke as scheduled.
The Socialist Club was at the same
time addressed by Dr. Campbell.
Dr. Campbell’s subject was,
“Will America Have a Revolu-tion?”
Dr. Williams spoke on the
present banking situation. Some
of the friction between the two
clubs was based upon the relative
pertinence of the two subjects.
Vinsel Heads
Mayor’s Committee
On Unemployment
Dr. K. P. Vinsel, head of the
Political Science Department, has
recently been made chairman of
the Advisory Committee on Un-employment
Relief appointed by
Mayor Harrison. Other members
are Fay Marvin, Director of Pub-lic
Works; Owsley Brown, How-ard
Lee, and Harry Schacter. The
functions of this Committee are:
the coordination of the various re-lief
movements, the syncronization
thereof to prevent overlapping of
the work done by the various or-ganizations,
and the investigation
of new relief movements as to
their comparative efficiency and
value of the work produced.
The first step taken by the
Comffiittee was its approval of
the University of Louisville Serv-ice
School on Kfarch 16.

NEW N. E. A. POLICY
Educators Seek Voice
In Social Planning
The National Council of Edu-cation,
a policy forming group of
the National Educational Associa-tion,
has drawn up a set of resolu-tions
calling upon President
Roosevelt to create a national
council on social and economic
planning, in which educators as
well as representatives of labor, in-dustry,
and the professions should
have a part. An important sec-tion
of the resolutions reads “The
present crisis in education calls for
emphasis upon an unusual phase
of the responsibility of education.
The present infringement of the
rights of children is due mostly to
the breakdown of our adult social
order. . . . Education must at all
times concern itself with the social
and economic problems underly-ing
stability and progress if it is
not to see its work with children
largely nullified.” The resolutions
also ask for efforts in behalf of
nomadic unemployed youth.
TEACHERS SHOULD UNITE
Commenting on the present
status of education, Dr. Jesse L.
Newlon, dierctor of the Lincoln
School of Teachers’ College in Co-lumbia
University, said it was

COLONEL BRADLEY
BECOMES PROFESSOR
Word was received Tuesday,
March 14, of the appointment of
Dr. J. Franklin Bradley, Associate
Professor of English, as a Colonel
on the staff of Governor Laffoon.
The appointment is a reward
for the service Dr. Bradley rend-ered
the state in his round the
world trip two years ago. During
this trip which lasted for thirteen
months, Dr. Bradley visited a
great many foreign educational in-stitutions
and was received in the
courts of the royalty of Europe
and Asia. He served as an unoffi-cial
ambassador for Kentucky and
brought much favorable attention
to the state.
CALLS FOR SCRUTINY
The recently published twenty-seventh
annual report of the Car-negie
Foundation for the Ad-vancement
of Teaching, urging
economic retrenchment by the na-tion
s schools of higher education,
has aroused much discussion
among educators all over the
country. Declaring that “the at-tention
of university administra-tors
now needs to be focusecf upon
controlling expenditures where
hitherto it has been centered on
increasing income,” the report
stresses certain sound general ed-ucational
policies which will result
in definite economies. Among the
economy measures suggested were:
Economy in expenditures of all
kinds; reduction of the types of
courses offered by colleges when
similar courses are offered by the
“more competent” institutions; re-organizing
teaching to emphasize
the learner; adoption of the
share the work” movement
among faculty members to provide
maximum employment compatible
with the curtailment of classes.
After consideration of the re-port,
Dean Oppenheimer said:
“Great economies can be made in
colleges by intelligent readjust-ment
of courses, by improvement
in teaching, and by more intelli-gent
working with students. The
depression is forcing colleges to
examine programs and to utilize
what they know about improve-ment
in higher education in order
Williams Attributes
Bank Problems
To Three Causes
Dr. Charles W. Williams, head
of the Economics Department, ad-dressed
the University Civic Lea-gu
at the regular luncheon meet-ing
on Wednesday, March 15 on
“The Banking Situation Its
Causes and Effects.”
Dr. Williams attributed the
complete paralysis of the banking
system to three primary causes:
first, the government with its sys-tem
of divided control; second,
the present banking system; and
third, the American public, which
has effected such a great with-drawal
and redeposit of gold dur-ing
the past fortnight. The incon-stancy
of the public state of mind,
he said, has been largely respon-sible
for the rapidity of financial
and economic events recently.
The speaker advocated a pro-gram
of cooperation on the part of
the people. He favored govern-ment
regulation of the banking
system, though not governmental
guarantee of deposits.
At a business meeting held on
Tuesday, March 21, Tom Van
Arsdel was elected Secretary upon
the resignation of Mark Beau-champ.
John S. Moore addressed the
League on Thursday, March 23,
at a joint meeting with the Inter-national
Relations Chib.
