"Y" Cabinets
All members of the Soph
omore and Junior-Senior
"Y" cabinets are asked to
meet this morning at chap
el period on the steps of
South . building; to have
group pictures made for the
Yackety Yack.
Since the time of his appoint
ment Dr. Connor has been busy
setting up the organization and
supervising completion and
equipment of the building.
Offices
Temporary offices in the new
Department of Justice building
which is adjacent to the Ar
chives building were used until
the latter ' building could be oc
cupied. On November 8, 1935,
the first records were trans
ferred here.
Even though these records are
no longer in active use by the
departments of government,
they are important for research
and historical purposes. The na
tional archives has now taken
into custody 15 such collections.
It has been estimated that there
are about 112,000,000 docu
ments in the collection.
Views University
No longer a member of the
faculty, Dr. Connor is in a position-to
observe the University
and its progress from ah un
biased view. He believes the
University to be extending its
influence and reputation, espe
cially its reputation for research
and its liberal attitude toward
social and economic problems.

"Y" GROUP HEARS
WOODHOUSE TALK
Democracy Must Come,
States Professor
"Democracy is one of the most
misunderstood things in the
world today," stated E. J. Wood
house, professor of political sci-
ence, at a meeting of the Junior
Senior Y. M. C. A. cabinet last
night. "But democracy is bound
to come, it is like an irresistible
tide.
"One of the most forgotten
things about democracy is that
it implies the highest and finest
kind of leadership. To me, the
government is best which guar
antees the best security for
everyone, not certain masses,
and guarantees everyone a
chance to develop himself.
Democracy Inborn
"Democracy cannot be denied,
it's natural. It's inborn. We may
never . see, our . grandchildren
may never see democracy, but
it's bound to come. . It's the nat
ural instinct of everyone to want
to lead his own life," continued
Woodhouse.
"I believe in freedom and in
dividualism, but freedom and co
operation must go hand in hand.
Democracy, to me, is coincident
with Christianity. You have the
democratic principle and philos
ophy in the Golden Rule.
"I, personally, will be disap
pointed in President Roosevelt if
something isn't done about 11
million unemployed. Democracy
implies spending every cent of
money if it is needed to give
every man a chance to develop
himself."
