Wages Of Education
Thinking of cutting that 8 o'clock class today?
We don't mean to alarm you by waking you up to the
facts this suddenly, but every hour you spend in class is
worth $30.
This figure comes from a recent issue of the New York
Times. It is based upon the extra income earned by those
with a college education. They estimate that the college gradu
ate averages between $5000 and $6000 annually as opposed
to approximately $3000 earned by the noncollege man or wo
man. Assuming that the average student spends about 2500
hours in class during his four years in college, and assum
ing that he can look forward to 40 years of employment after
his graduation, one arrives at the value of one hour spent
in class approximately $30.
What this campus needs is a good five-cent class, or stu
dent compensation policies for the spendthrifts.
Five Minutes More
With unaccustomed vitriol we herewith launch our cam
paign against the handful of instructors who habitually over
run the fifty minutes allotted for a class session. The class is
in their hands, they reason, until they see fit to dismiss it.
However, the three or four minutes extra they take to bring
the lecture to a polished close often means that several stu
dents will draw a tardy in the next class, particularly if the
two classes are at opposite ends of the campus.
We do not advocate the removal of class bells in favor of
.starting guns; students should be expected to wait out the
completion of a thought sequence.
But, logically, it is no more inconsiderate for a member
of the class to come in a few minutes late than for the instruc
tor to lecture over into the period intended for the changing
of classes.
V For Veterans Club
The Vets Club has been a veteran for a long time. Out
of action since 1950, the club behind Lenoir Dining Hall has
served as a foxhole for spiders and a storage room for furni
ture to be used in the new commerce buildings.
The club was closed because of lack of member support;
the vets moved out and sold their equipment to the Univer
sity, t
Now, the battle cry has been raised by vets who want
to start a campaign! to drive out the spiders and move back
in. t
According to CdL F. C. Shepard, veterans adviser, the
interest accumulating on the funds left by former vets is
being awarded yearly to the Scabbard and Blade for the
organization of a University Veterans Association.
With these things in mind, The Daily Tar Heel would
like to know whether or not the veterans on campus would
like for the club to be opened again, and whether the money
in the bank could serve as a starter fund for that purpose.
Let us hear from. you.

AI House-
Young
Democrats
"To every action there is a
contrary reaction." The typical
Republican reaction to the Dem
ocratic campaign seems to be
vindictive personal atttacks on
individuals. When they can find
nothing in the records of Adlai
Stevenson and John Sparkman,
when they cannot dispute the
facts, they assail persons who
discusses the campaign. Mc
Carthyism is their weapon,
clean-up their defense, corrup
tion their charge, but a con
sumptive thirst for office is
their campaign.
Their 's is the campaign base
on emotion; their's is the cam
paign in which 'they ask you to
vote for a label, "I like Ike,"
without thinking about the ad
ministration that will come with
Ike. They ask you to disregard
parties, at least until the elec
tion is over, and just vote for
a single man. There is no such
thing as a President separate and
apart from his party. His party
nominated him; his party will
run the administration and con
trol the patronage. A vote for
Eisenhower is a vote for a Re-
publican administration domi
nated by Robert A. Taft, Joe
McCarthy, Bill Jenner and the
GOP Old Guard who seem to
have won ascendency in the Re
publican campaign. A vote for
Eisenhower is a vote for a Re
publican platform which does
not guarantee to Agriculture
90 of parity, which rejects
Roosevelt and the New and Fair
Deal, and which would wreck
a foreign policy designed to aid
the Free World today to pre
vent an atomic war of tomor
row. Dwight Eisenhower, the great
General who helped execute that
foreign policy has now turned
against it and succumbed to the
Taft-MacArthur view on for
eign policy. As Wayne Morse
said: "the Eisenhower I sup
ported for the nomination is not
the Eisenhower who is dangling
and dancing from campaign
platforms at the end of political
puppet strings being jerked by
some of the most evil and rea
ctionary forces in American
politics."
General Eisenhower began his
campaign to win the nomina
tion as a great "crusade" to win
from Taft and the Republican
Old Guard. His great "crusade"
ended with Taft as they "tinkled
coffee cups ' on Morningside
Heights and the great crusade
became the great surrender."
Frcm that conference of Taft
and Eisenhower at the love-seat
at Columbia University came the
"joint statement" which Taft
admitted he dictated. Who has
changed; who has won ascend
ency in the Republican cam
paign? People who know Taft
know that he hasn't changed.
Taft, the cunning political
craftsman and the Old Guard
have control and that is the
"dangerous and reactionary"
force which Senator Morse fears.
But it is not the record of
Taft alone that thinking Ameri
cans need to examine. How
" about the Republican record in
1 Congress? Eighty per cent of
: the House Republicans voted
against the extension of Social
Security, 79 voted to cut soil
conservation funds, 64 voted
to cut flood control funds, 56
voted against the continuation of
90 parity for Agriculture, and
79 to end inflation controls.
How 'about foreign policy? They
voted against sending aid to
South Korea in 1949, something
designed to prevent the war
that followed. They voted to
send aid once the North Koreans
attacked, but now they bitterly
criticize our stand against Com
munism there. They voted
against sending any aid at all
military, economic, or technical
to our allies to strengthen
themselves against the threat
of Communism. And yet they
shout so much today about Com
munism. The housing shortage at Mich
igan State college has its com
pensations. One of the dormi
tories there is now housing
students of both sexes. Oldtime
students are saying they "never
had it so good."
'Amsterdam students want to
start their own gas station with
the help of the Shell company.
The station will be run ex
clusively by students. Amster
dam already has a student-run
movie house, the Criterion,
which has an excellent reputation.
The Washington Merry -
WASHINGTON Republi
can leaders put all sorts of pres
sure on GOP Senator Wayne
Morse of Oregon to keep him
from bolting to Stevenson.
Shortly before Morse issued his
statement deserting the Repub
lican ticket, Senator Fred Sea
ton of Nebraska, who has been
close to Morse in the Senate,
telephoned him from New York,
inviting him to travel on the
Eisenhower train. Morse de
clined. For more than a month prior
to this, however, a succession
of Republican leaders, includ
ing ex-Governor Stassen of Min
nesota, had come to see the
Senator from Oregon. One of
them dropped in on Morse just
after Eisenhower had endorsed
Senator Jehner in Indiana.
"The General didn't want to
make that endorsement," he ex
plained. "After he saw Jenner
he came back to his hotel and
said, 'That--I'd much rather
have punched him in the nose'."
This made Morse even less
enthusiastic.
"That shows him up more
than ever as a hypocrite," he
exploded. "At the same time he
said that, he also stood up and
told the .American people to
vote for Jehner.
"He did the same thing at
the surrender of Morningside
Heights to Senator Taft."
"That was no surrender," re
plied the Eisenhower emissary.
"That was arranged to save
Taft's face."
"What!" exclaimed the Sena
tor from Oregon. "Why Eisen
hower wasn't even given the
courtesy of being at the press

conference where Taft announc
ed the terms of the surrender."
The emissary argued that the
General was merely trying to
bring unity in the party. He
said he had to appease some
of the Old Guard and bring
about a united front. "But," he
continued, "You will be the man
he'll call to the White House
for consultation after he's
elected."
"On the contrary," replied
Morse, "If you read that Taft
statement issued after the 'sur
render,' you'll see that Eisen
hower agreed not to discrimi
nate against Taft people, and
you know'what that means. That
means the Taft people will be
running the party.
"I happen to have been the
first Republican to come out for
Eisenhower," Morse continued.
"But this is not. the Eisenhower
I know. I can't be for this Eisen
hower. Reach over and punch
the cash register: 'No sale'."
First efforts to keep Senator
Morse in line occurred prior to
Labor Day, when Eisenhower
leaders wanted the Oregonian's
help to swing the American Fed
eration of Labor over to Eisen
hower, or at least keep them
from endorsing Stevenson. To
this end, Governor Stassen, who
wrote the General's speech de
livered at the AF of L conven
tion, came down to Washington
and spent two and one-half
hours with Morse. However, he
made no headway.
"This man compromises with
his principles," argued the Sen
ator. "He has deserted the lib
eral wing of the Republican
Party in order to get elected.
GtpSX. THE WASSrol POST"

And that's what you did too,
Harold."
Stassen passed over this refer
ence to the fact that he was
once leader of GOP liberals. He
urged that Morse come to New
York and sit on the platform
with Eisenhower when he ad
dressed the AFL. But Morse said
no.
"That would just show that I
was giving my blessing to some
thing I didn't agree with," he
replied. "It's too late for me to
advise you on the General's
speech anyway. I've just been
invited by Bill Green to answer
it."
At this, Stassen nearly jump
ed out of his chair. After he
returned to New York, however,
another Eisenhower emissary
came to Washington to urge
Morse not to differ with Eisen
hower in the AFL speech he
was to make the following day.
"This is the hardest job I
ever had to do," said the emis
sary. "I'll make it easy for you,"
replied Morse; "Go back and
tell headquarters that I've
agreed not to change a single
line of my speech. I had plan
ned to rewrite it and make it
ten times tougher, but in view
of your visit I won't change it."
The speech as written and la
ter delivered,' of course, was
much tougher than Eisenhower
leaders wanted.
Senator Morse's final decision
to bolt the Republican Party was
made after Eisenhower toured
New Jersey. ;
"When I read those speeches
in New Jersey," Morse explain
ed to friends, "and saw the Gen-

More than a wisn, more than !
a pretty ideal of well meaning 1
philosophers, the United Nations
is a going concern. It is six years
old. It has not attained perman
nent world peace, or freed every
part of the world from hunger,
or accomplished perfect inter
national understanding not in
six years. But in this time it has I
taken longer steps toward the f
realization of these aims than
any other agency in the his
tory of mankind.
In Palestine, Kashmir, Indo
nesia, Iran, Syria, Lebanon, Ber
lin, Greece and Korea where
ever international conflict has
threatened the peace of the
world the United Nations has
explored every method for pre
venting war: by active media
tion; by orders to stop fighting;
by persuading disputing nations
to negotiate directlv and finally,
in the case of Korea, by calling
upon the armed forces of its
member states to combine and
halt an aggressor. This great
and growing congress of nations
has fought flood, famine and
sickness. It has sent missions of
experts around the globe to pro
vide technical assistance to
countries that needed it. It has
taken steps to curtail illegal pro
duction and distribution of nar
cotics. It has sent food and re
lief to distressed children. Its
charter provides the best hope
for future world-wide unity of
nations and people.
The United Nations is now
costing each American about
sixty cents a year. Do you think
it's worth the money? It needs
your sixty cents. But, above all
else, it needs your faith. Believe
in it with all your heart. Work
for it, give to it. Nothiag will
repay you more. The health
and progress and peace of the
world are the richest dividends
you can reap. No other divi
dends are worth anything with
out these.
