GOVERNOR
IS HEARD ON TES
NEW PATRIGTISLI
Former Chief Executive Of
Colorado Says That War Is
Subject To .Will Of Man.
MAN ABLE TO PREVENT IT
William E. Sweet former
governor of Colorado, : spoke
Sunday morning at 11:00 at the
Methodist church on the sub
ject of "The New -t Patriotism."
Mr. Sweet's address was heard
by approximately 800 studenls
and townspeople. He ! spoke
again Sunday night on the sub
ject of "A Valid Christianity
for Today."
.Mr. Sweet began by saying
that there is a new patriotism
in America which does riot con
sist of marching ; in battalions
and wearing uniforms.' "The
old belief that war was inevi
table," continued the speaker,
"kept all nations in a constant
state of preparedness." :
' "War," declared Mr. Sweet,
"is subject to the will "and pur
pose of man. And we are not
powerless to prevent it." ; He
believes that a vast number of
people who say that war is in
evitable are absorbed in the war;
system of today and that- the
redaction of armaments is often
retarded because the manufac
turers of warring tools are fight
ing for their revenues.
Speaking of the Kellogg Bri-
and peace' pact, Mr. Sweet said
that "if the United. States ever
goes to war, we must say that
this peace pact is but a scrap of
paper." Mr. Sweet was highly
in favor of the League- of Na
tion and stated that Woodrow
Wilson, although severely critir
cized, was right in going to Paris
to incarnate his own ideals. He
closed by saying that he thought
that this Kellogg-Briand peace
pact would help to bring an ever
lasting peace between nations.
In his talk Sunday night, Mr.
Sweet spoke chiefly of the so
cial imDlications of Christ's
philosophy of life. Both of the
talks made by Mr. Sweet were
well attended by both students
and townspeople.

Head Of Department Of Jour

List Of Questions Submitted
To Newspaper Institute.
Oscar Coffin, head of the Uni

requests for th6 questionnaire
he submitted to North Carolina
editors and publishers at the
newspaper institute here last
week. Following is a copy of
the questionnaires
I "What is the place of a rea
sonably libnest and independent
North Carolina newspaper in
the sort of family fight to be
settled perhaps, on June 7?
"There being no way to avoid
over-emphasizing the news val
ue of - the disturbance, where
may, one find a fence to" mount,
and if so, is this policy advisa
ble? . "What shall be done by a
neighborly editor with bad-tempered
communications?
"Why should anybody publish
for Arthur Talmadge Abernathy
he's one of many personal
abuse of a man he'd be only too
glad to serve on a reception com
mittee with? : ;
, "Are North Carolina news
papers going to allow themselves
to be used for rekindling the
Smith-Hoover fires of bigotry
and intolerance? ,
"Is there anything less intel

positive harm than for a free
press to submit to being covered
up with verbal refuse by a lot
of numbskulls who have nothing
more to do with their time than
to devote it to bawling out other
roughnecks who have been re
tained by the defense?
"Where are Santford Martin's
Forty Immortals and what are
they now doing?" '
Wants Glandon Drive
Maintained By Town
Dr. W. C. George of the Caro

before the board of aldermen
with a request, now being con
sidered, that Glandon Drive,
one of the roads to Gimghoul
Castle, be made a public ; road
and be " maintained henceforth
by Chapel Hill.
The requirements of publicly
maintained roads within the city
are that they be surfaced with
at least six inches of disinte
grated stone, and be properly
drained. Glandon Drive does
not meet either of these require
ments. Fraternity Notice

Police Will Arrest
Townspeople Using"
Out-Of -State Tags
The police . department is in
vestigating several cases where
automobiles owned by residents
of Chapel Hill are being driven
with out-of-state licenses; ac
cording to John M. Foushee, city
manager, who adds : : that : the
state law allows but two months'
use of a foreign tag by one who
takes up residence here.
"There are some cases where
people from out of state have
become bona - fide residents,
sometimes even leasing homes,
but are driving their cars with
foreign licenses. Only those who
can show a real residence else
where will be allowed to use tags
other, than those issued by
North Carolina," says Foushee.
The new town tags, for which
there is a fee of $1.00, will be
issued on June 1st and will run
to January 1st, this year, thus
putting them into the, same fis
cal year period as the state tags.
The new tags will be black let
ters on a white background,: it
having been impossible to secure
tags of a. Carolina color scheme
that were guaranteed to last. A
total of 565 Chapel Hill tags are
now in use.
Village Council
May Reconsider
Old Zoning Law
A public hearing on the peti
tion of Mrs. A; E. Brown to so
alter the zoning plan as to per
mit the sale of her property at
Ransome and McCauley streets
to a college fraternity, vill be
held in the city hall on Wednes
day, February 29, according to
John M. Foushee, city manager.
"At i this time opportunity
will be given for anyone to
speak for qr against the pro
posed change," says Foushee,
and we cannot tell whether the
petition will be granted.
The zoning plan - has been a
benefit to both the fraternities
and the private home owners of
Chapel Hill, according to Mr.
Foushee, who points out that the
fraternity men keep different
hours and make more noise than
the average householder. "To
all of which," he adds, "no one
can object when zoning is prop-
erlv handled.
"From time to time in, state
legislatures in the : south, laws
are proposed abolishing frater
nities, as was the case in South
Carolina until recently. One of
the sources of such proposals is
the person whose home is near
a fraternity house. By adhering
to a plan of ' zoning, such ob
jections are reduced to a mini-
mum.
Henderson And Green Speak At
f New York Dinner For
- Noted Irishman.
SHAW FAILS TO ATTEND
Says Blood Sacrifices Are Not
In His Line ; Advises Fast
Instead Of Feast; -
Bernard Shaw stands forth
today as the greatest writer of
his age," Dr. Archibald Hen
derson, official biographer of
Shaw, declared here ,: Saturday
night at a dinner in tribute to
the noted Irishman.
The dinner was given by the
Town Hall Club, and was at
tended by a notable assemblage
of dramatists, novelists and
other admirers of Shaw? Francis
H. Sisson, president 'of the Town
Hall Club, presided, and Dr.
Henderson was toastmaster.
Other speakers included Mrs.
Richard Mansfield, the famous
actress; Paul Green, the play
wright, who is a member of the
faculty of the University of
North Carolina ; Norman Thom
as, the " former socialist candi
date for president ; and V four
representatives from the New
York Theatre Guild, Theresa
Helburn," the executive director ;
Lawrence Langner, .founder and
director ;. Philip Moeller, the pro
ducing director, and Dudley
Diggs, the actor. ;
Dr. Henderson had : urged
Shaw to come" to . America to at
tend the dinner and -the' famous
playwright sent the following
characteristic reply " which Dr.
Henderson read: -
"A dinner! How horrible! I
am to be made the pretext for
killing all those wretched ani
mals and birdsand fish ! Thank
you for nothing.: Now if it were
to be a fast instead of a feast :
say a solemn three days absten
tion from corpses in my honor,
I could at least pretend to be
lieve that it was disinterested.
Blood sacrifices are not in my
line." V;;-i; ::;
Dr. Henderson, in his address,
described Shaw as "The first
great economist in letters known
to history. His novels are ex
ecrable almost as bad as the
best of Dreiser ; his art criti-1
cism is mediocre ; his ; musical
criticism delightful his dra
matic criticism the best of its
kind. His great triumphs have
come in the field of the . drama ;
but in the generally accepted
sense, Shaw is not a dramatist at
all. His plays, which he calls
debated-dramas, are not studies
of human beings, their destinies
and tragedies; they are devas
tating literary exposes of social
and economic institutions." -"Shaw
began his life as the
Bad Boy of literature ; he is end
ing it as the Grand Old Man of
Europe. But the habits of his
youth persist. He still commits
the youthful indiscretion of
thumbing his nose and spread
ing his fingers out at the hal
lowed traditions of society. He
still makes a great verbal racket
with his battering at doors long
since flung upon by his own
gate-crashing. He still bela
bors idols long ago tumbled
from their Dedestals. These
j peCcadilloes, pardonable in child-
hood, are sometimes as pamtul
to the admirers of his genius,
as the sight of a respected
grandmotherj gaily bedight in
in the manners" and the raiment
of the flapper."
Le Cercle Francais will meet
tonight at 7:30 in the Episcopal
parish house. -

HOUSE PRAISES
LEE IN ADDRESS
Executive Secretary Points To
Lee As America's. Greatest
Military Figure.
In commemoration of the
birthday of Robert E. Lee,
January 19,"R.' B. House, execu
tive secretary, spoke in chapel
yesterday on certain aspects of
the career of the noted south
erner. ' , v -
Although Lee's greatness has
been appraised by much vary
ing opinion, Mr. House deemed
it unnecessary to find his prop
er place in the scale of histori
cal figures, but declared that he
must at . least be considered
America's greatest military fig
ure. The speaker turned to the
later part of Lee's career for the
finest expression of his charac
ter. Pointing to his struggle
against overwhelming odds, Mr.
House showed the Confederate
leader to be undoubtedly the
outstanding figure of the Civil
War. He then put Lee from his
place in this greatest of Ameri
can - military , art among the
greatest military geniuses of
history. In the opinion of the
speaker Lee's was no less an il
lustrious career for the side he
chose or for his having lost.
However, Mr. House decried
the measuring of Lee : by his
military achievements alone. The
promptness with which he ad
justed his thinking to the situa
tion after defeat "was empha
sized by the speaker. Mr. House
pointed out that he willingly
and unselfishly turned his mind
to the problem -of the moment.
He declared that outstanding in
Lee's life was the fact that he
kept up-to-date in his thinking.

UNIVERSITY'BAM)
' ONE OE TEN BEST
AMONGLIEGES
Information Received From Ex
ecutive Secretary Of Kappa
Kappa Psi Band Fraternity.
CHOSEN AFTER SURVEY
The University of North Car
olina band has been chosen as
one of the ten college" bands de
serving special recognition , for
their work.
This information was contain
ed in a letter recently, received
by T. S. ; McCorkle, director . of ,
the band, from Scott P. Squyers,
executive secretary of the Kap
pa Kappa Psi band fraternity.
This organization at a national
meeting recently held, made the
selection as a result of a general
band survey. '
Mr. Squyres visited Chapel
Hill last winter .and made - a
thorough investigation at to the
type of work the band is doing.
This investigation led to the se-
ection of the U. NT C. group,
Mr. Squyres stated in his letter.
"The University band has.
tried to point the way to a high
er type ofmusic," Mr. McCorkle
stated. "Of course, 'the music -that
is suitable for playing at
he games is more or less univer
sal in type, but in concert work
he band has found and used a
considerable variety of music
hat is very much worthwhile." "
The Asheville paper after a
concert there last year, spoke
of the band as "a symphony of-
chestra without strings." It
was this phase of the work that
particularly interested Mr.
Squyres when he visited here. -
The band will play several out
of town concerts this year.
Since no auditorium is available
for a campus program,- it is like-
y that spring " "weather will
bring about several stadium con
certs. . . t
Kappa Kappa Psi is attempt
ing to arrange for a national
college band contest next year,
similar to ihe one now conducted
for glee clubs. '' The University
band has already promised to
support this contest when it is
inaugurated.
