News: DICK YOUNG For This Unit: Sports: HARRY HOLLINGSWORTH Co-Chairmen Syd Alexander was up to the Tar Heel office yesterday afternoon and told all the boys and girls to gather round for he had an unusual sight to show them. He reached in his pocket,, drew out a little egg marked Student-Faculty day, pushed a button .on the outside of the oval, and out popped two bright chicks, Sis Clinard and Ike Grainger. In running that day each year, which ties the bond be tween students and faculty a lot closer, the real work al most all behind the scenes is done by the co-chairmen. It's a tough job to put on a successful student-faculty day program tougher than it should be. But we think that Syd and the YMCA have made some good selections. Both Sis and Ike have a lot of go, and are right for the job. Lots of luck and make it the best ever, Sis and Ike ! Silence Is Golden Aycock dormitory's manag ers and council have devised a v plan for minimizing noise in the acoustically-perfect halls ' of the building between now and the end of the quarter. A strict "study period" is in ef fect from 7 until M o'clock each night, with vigilant councillors ready to silence any noisemakers. The dormi tory store frequently a source of noise in any dormi tory keeps its doors closed, but indicates it is open for business with a light outside the door which burns during business hours. . IRC Should Quit IRC and CPU leaders have finally reached a decision over their quarter - long dispute concerning the sponsorship of political speeches on the cam pus. The question, however, is not solved. When the controversy came up this year the Daily Tar Heel studied the matter from every angle and advised the IRC to withdraw. At the time the excellent' work that the CPU had done in the past was used to prove there is no need for a second organization to do the same type work. Checking back over CPU progress you will note that President Roosevelt, Norman Thomas, Earl Browder, and Ambassadors Dieckhoff and Troyanovsky and numerous other . national and foreign figures have spoken here from the CPU platform. It is safe to say that the CPU can continue to bring na tional figures to the campus. Why should another organ ization compete ? According to the new plan Bill Joslin, chairman of the CPU, and Manfred Rogers, chairman of the IRC, will work with mem bers of both organizations for the remainder of the year. Perhaps this is the best solu tion for the present. The Daily Tar Heel, however, would like to offer the same suggestion now it made be fore. Let the TOC " limit its work to other phases of the study of international affairs and leave the job of securing political speakers to. the CPU.

By Bill Joslin (Guest Columnist) From all sides we are painstak ingly aware that this nation is now in the throes of a huge rearmament designed to protect our democractic government from the menace of to talitarianism. While the gravity of the totalitarian threat is debatable, granted that we ' are arming our selves against it, I want to raise a few doubts about our preparations to save our democratic ideals. I continually note signs that we are compromising our democracy and the hard-won social gains of the past eight years in the very effort to defend them. Once we lose these sacred rights in the transition to a war-economy, no one knows when we will recover them. The unemploy ment and general economic chaos that will prevail when we revert to peace-time production and normal life will be so paralyzing that we will be forced to declare "a national emergency" and give someone vir tually dictatorial powers. How long he will keep these powers is ques-tionable-presumably until order is restored to our economic machine. The evidence to me all indicates that we are no longer pretending to be democratic in this business of rearming. We are told that all must be sacrificed for national defense our liberties and our jobs precisely the same demand that the totalitar ian nations make upon their citizens. Particularly are the labor unions be ginning to feel the pinch of national defense. Following strikes in the Vultee Aircraft plant and in sev eral others, wherein the laborers were demanding what they consid ered a reasonable wage scale, rumbl ings were immediately heard of leg islation to outlaw strikes in de fense industries. Governor Hoey and several reactionary Congress men came out openly for such leg islation. Perhaps labor has imped ed the defense program by striking for higher wages, but always work- NEYS BRIEFS ' by the Vnf vernent. .

The plane virtually buried itself, so great was its speed. days. ers have shortly returned to their jobs when granted a reasonable wage increase. Labor has demon strated its desire to work for national defense, but not at disproportionate ly low wage scales. Sidney Hillman and others have commented favor ably upon labor's willingness to co operate in stepping up production of goods vital to our defense pro gram. But now examine the behavior of the manufacturers who have been bidding for government contracts. Firms filling defense orders are al lowed a maximum of 10 profit. (Originally the upper limit was 7, but this figure was raised when many companies balked at the lower rates.) In addition, our govern ment and the British too, have been financing plant expansions in many industries on Sunday School terms. Yet many firms have flagrantly and openly violated the National Labor Relations act, despite a rul ing of Attorney General Jackson that all companies working on de . fense contracts must live up to its provisions. The War and Navy De partments in letting contracts have winked at these violations and plead- ed expediency and haste. j Only Monday the news appeared j mat tne xavy naa oeen experienc ing difficulty in securing bids for many of our sorely needed defense articles because firms filling orders were required to abide by the Walsh Healey act. (This act demands that companies holding government con tracts in excess of $10,000 must meet wage and hour standards determin ed by the Labor Department.) Some firms submitted bids on the condi tion that they be exempt from the provisions of this act. In many in stances defense contracts have been held up for weeks because no firm would accept a contract demanding j compliance with this government statute, n ere we una manutactur ers deliberately delaying our rearm- of stress they know they can do so with impunity while holding out for MONTEVIDEO The 20,000-ton British auxiliary cruiser Carnarvon Castle left Montevideo harbor today, an hour and fifteen minutes before ex piration of the 72-hour time limit set greater profits for themselves. On an order for 2,000 airplane clocks 25 bids were, anticipated by the Navy, but only one was submit- ted, and that one with a reservation of exemption from the terms of the Walsh-Healey act! For four months this contract was held up because of the exorbitant terms of this single bid; finally, it was let to the firm as a last resort. What sort of squawk would we hear if the laborers in any plant producing goods for national defense went on strike for sky-high wages for four months? All sorts of retaliatory measures would be taken on all workers everywhere, and yet manufacturers delay defense contracts and openly violate laws designed to protect the workers without a finger being raised against them. When confronted with these facts, I seriously question what we are at tempting to save in this country. It certainly appears that we are . pitching democracy and our precious social gains overboard and are meet ing big business interests on their own terms. As long as we are em barking on a "whole hog" defense program, let's proceed soberly, mak ing sure that both capital and labor, cooperate in it and contribute their share in the American way.

Most students realize the necessity for quietness and will restrain themselves. For their benefit, and as checks against less thoughtful residents, all dorm itories should adopt measures similar to those in effect in Aycock. nite means by which the groups could decide the problem of jurisdiction. Working with these difficulties in mind, representatives of both students and faculty have spent several years discussing the problem. Since the new plan' will be in effect for the remainder of the school year, it will temporarily at least, end the long struggle for complete student government. More than 60 coeds stormed the aeronautics department of the Uni versity of Minnesota to enroll for fly ing courses, but only five could be accepted.
