More and more college papers are
beginning to dabble editorially in out
side affairs. There is no reason why
. college editors should be barred from
expressing their opinions on national
and international affairs and problems
as well as purely campus affairs.
It has been the policy of the editor
this year to get away from as many
petty campus "kicks" as possible, and
discuss in the columns assigned to him
' as editor problems that more deeply
pertain to the campus at large and to
students as students, as citizens of
the state, and as citizens of the nation.
The recent discussion of National
. Defense Day by the press of the conn
try has also been made the subject
of comment by college editors. An edi-
torial from the Harvard Crimson deals
with the celebration in a very practical
light. We can do no better than to
print the words of the Harvard editor,
"A short month ago the United
States celebrated a National Defense
Day with great show of mpck-mibiliza-
tion, much waving of flags, and a flood
of rhetorical exhoration by generals
and others who should have known bet
ter. This week, in Berlin, military
leaders of the two great worrior-coun-
tries of Europe, whose quarrels have
been the great obstacle to peace for
three hundred years, are leading t
world peace congress in the denuncia
tion of war. General Verraux, of
France and General Shoenaich, of Ger
many attack their own trade with true
military straightforwardness.
"While Secretary Wilbur, of the
Navy, invokes a highly intelligent
posse of sheriffs to enforce his censor
ship of a realistic play concerning the
Marines in the trenches, on the ground
that it disparages the romance of mili
tary life and may discourage enlist-
ment, General Shoenaich, German
commander on the Rumanian front,
calls fools 'and cowards the officers of
the old regime who still cling to the
old militaristic ideals. While the en
tire strategic staff of the United
States Army goes on speaking tours to
persuade the voters to enlarge , the
. regular army and create a large citi
zen army, General Verraux, command
er of the sixth French corps, urges a
general strike against war. even a
strike of generals. '
"America, long considered the most
defenceless great nation in the world,
has just swallowed two bitter doses of
jingoism without blinking. European
countries, where a vigorous military
class has long been the tradition, finds
its warlike ideals trampled upon by
their former defenders. Perhaps this
reversed balance of trade in military
illusions may mean a reversal of mili
tary strength; as Bertrand Russell in
sists, the United States may become
the only great military nation in the
world. The unsophistcated ear of
American public opinion is still fasci
nated by the blare of warlike demons
tration, and the jingo is still the her
ald of patriotism."

Check flashing is absolutely unlaw

as excuses for students to cash bad

a check to secure money is caught in

THE CASE OF CHECK FLASHING
The story in the last issue of The
TAR HEEL concerning the " case of
check flashing at the University Cafe
teria has been mistaken in its meaning
by a good number of students.
In justice to the management of the
cafeteria it should be stated that the
Arrested Student
Has Been Released
ine student wno was arrested, on aj
charge of cneck-flashing was released i
Wednesday on bond furnished by Mr.
Strowd. He has now returned to Ashe
ville to go to work. Many who have
become acquainted with the circum
stances of, the case have expressed much i
sympathy for the former student.
Investigation shows that the student
while' self-dependent has the backing of
several prominent citizens of Asheville.
These, it was learned, have aided him
financially from time to time. When
arrested he stated that he intended to
take up the checks as soon as he re
ceived expected aid. Tbat this was
probably his intention is shown by the
fact that on entering school this fall
he took up two overdraft checks With
which he bought meal tickets, last spring.
His sympathizers, cite the lack of in
vention he displayed as proof that he is
not an instinctive or practiced criminal
and that his intentions were not dis
honest or he did not realize the serious
ness of his offense. All the checks writ
ten by him show no attempt to conceal
his handwriting. The names signed to
the checks were ficticious and not
forged. He gave most of his checks to
one nrm rather than to several which
