CHAPEL
Speaks Sunday
Gil son Says Douglas is
ViV'e, informed. Realist
(Miss Mary B. Gilson, one of the
few women pioneers in the field of
industrial relations and who resides
in Chapel Hill, is a long-time friend
of Senator Paul Douglas. Senator
(D.. 111.), will speak here Sunday
night at 8:30 in Hill hall on "Ethics
in Government." In the following
article for The Daily Tar' Heel, Miss
Gilson gives her impressions of the
Senator. Ed.)
By Mary, B. Gilson
For many years- prior to my
going to Chicago I knew Paul
Douglas as a virile, informed and
intelligent realist in the field of
economics. To those of us on the
firing line in factories, attempting
to solve daily problems relating
to management and labor, he had
an almost uncannily realistic un
derstanding for an "outsider."
This opinion of his was aug
mented when we heard him speak
at economic conferences and when
we read his books on wages, un
employment, labor relations and
other subjects of impelling in
terest to persons facing their im
pact and ramifications in the day's
work. But I shall not rehearse
his contributions as an author, a
college professor, a government
consultant, an incorruptible al-

I wish to soeak of him as a
rieighbor, friend, and colleague,
for I had the privilege of all these
relationships with Paul Douglas
and his lovely wife and congenial
companion, Emily Taft Douglas,
during the 10 years I taught at
the University of Chicago.
Paul Douglas was. a "good
neighbor" in every sense of the
word. His home was a real bless

There one was always sure of
good conversation, so sadly miss

shared his enthusiasm over a new

of the : Greensbora . Daily
Limping Duck Legislature,
Parties, Juggle '53 Budget
A little over half of the stu-
dent legislature last night ap
propriated $71,550 to 14 campus
organizations, after nearly three
hours of haggling over individual
items.
Absent from the meeting on the
roll-call were six UP members,
four SP members, one doubly-
endorsed, and one independent
member. However, the ranks of
he legislators thinned out ap
preciably as the evening passed,
until a sparse 29 (of 50) members
were present.
An amendment proposed by
Charlie Brewer, current head of
the Student Entertainment Com
mittee, to cut $3000 from The
Daily Tar Heel budget and add it
to the SEC appropriation, ac
counted for nearly two hours of
discussion.
The amendment was defeated
after hearing discussion from
Editor-Elect Barry Farber, pub
lications board member Walt
Dear, and editor Glenn Harden,
as well as many legislators.
Preliminary votes seemed to
split almost solidly along party
lines, but as the discussion grew
calmer, the amendment was de
feated. A second amendment proposed
by Brewer to cut $1000 from The
Daily Tar Heel and add the sum
to the SEC was also defeated,
after defeated amendment to the
amendment by Secretary Treasurer-elect
Ed Gross to add the
sum to the appropriated balance.
' A feeling of bitterness was evi
dent among SP legislators, whose
party -was roundly defeated in
Wednesday's elections. SP floor
leader Gene Cook referred at one
point in a heated discussion to the
"dead . duck" legislator, and
pleaded that its last acts be
sound.
SP legislator Bob Pace,' in a
reference to UP floorleader Bob
Gorham's "arbitrary handling of
the Carolina Forum budget" said,
"I -submit to you that this is the
way the UP manages things."
President-elect Ham Horton, a
member of the present legislature,
and other UP members, argued
at the beginning of the session
that discussion of the budget
ought to be delayed until the new
legislature takes office, two weeks,
from last night. The body defeated
the move, however, most UP
members voting with the SP to
