Library Bans Display
Of Political Badges
The wearing of political
badges by any of the library
force in the University was for
bidden yesterday by officials of
the library following the appear
ance of several political buttons
on the lapels of members of vari
ous departments of the library.
Officials of the library gave as
reason for the order that the
library was merely following the
practice of all the best in the
country. The policy is, that
since the library is a public in
stitution and assistants are ser
vants of the public, it is inde
fensible to carry on propaganda
in such an institution.
JUDGE WINSTON
MAKES TALK ON
'THE PARTICULAR'
Brother of G. T. Winston Advises
Students to "Stick to Partic
ular" in ChaDel Talk.
R. W. Winston, brother of the
ate George Tayloe Wrnston, re
cently honored by the Univer
sity, and former lawyer, judge,
and legislator spoke to the as
sembly yesterday morning.
Judge Winston who retired at
the age of sixty and re-entered
the University, is well known as
a contributor to several national
magazines.
His subject was "The Problem
of the Particular." "In daily
ife," he said, "this could be ex
plained as the question of the
deadline of life. When we are
born, we are a unit of humanity.
As we grow older and our in
telligence increases, we branch
off in the particular or the in
dividual. We may join a church,
a political party, a fraternity, or
some particular organization.
Then there may be a desire to go
into the universe, but it is dan
gerous to attempt this;, we
should stick to the particular."
Winston listed several groups
of particulars to prove differ
ences in thought. The different
churches have different beliefs
There is a group in Germany,
about to gain control, who be
lieve that clothes are not appro
priate. He also told of a group
that think the political form of
government of today is wrong.
and that we should have a soviet
form of government.
judge Winston said that no
body can explain anything, that
nothing is explainable but the
best a person can do is to mix
up a very little of the universa
with the particular. He con
eluded by stating that a person
would neyer go wrong in stick
ing to the old family traditions

K. C. Fraser Reviews Activities
Of International
University History Professor Finds Hope for Achievement in
Armament Parley Despite Complexity of Prob-
(EDITOR'S NOTE: K. C. Fraser,
professor in the University history
department, attended the Geneva arms
conference during his leave of" absence
ast year. The following article is a
personal record of his impressions.)
The first session of the Geneva
Arms' Conference convened Feb
ruary 2, 1932 and adjourned
July 9, 1932. The Arms Con
ference itself was, contrary to
the general impression current
in the United States, a very care
fully prepared session. Prepara
tions had been made since 1926.
The accomplishing of disarma
ment is a function which was
later given to the League of Na
tions by the terms of the trea
ties of 1919, and the erecting of
ground work of the Conference
has been carried on under the
auspices of the League of Na
tions.
Problems ""which presented
themselves at Geneva in the first
phase of the Conference were
perfectly inevitable because of
the differences in the defense re
quirements of the fifty-five na
tions represented.. there.
Varied Plans Offered
Proposals for disarmament
were naturallv very varied in
character, indicating the pecu
liar interest of each of the states
making suggestions, the most
radical ot which was the pro
posal made to the plenary ses
sion of the Conference for com
plete and total disarmament im
mediately. The plan advanced
by the Soviet government of
Russia is considered in Geneva
as too far-reaching and is not
