THE DAILY TAR HEEL FRIDAY, APRIL 25, 1941 PAGE FOUR 76 of U. S. College Students Believe America Is at War Now 'In Effect' Undergraduate Opinion Is Pessimistic Regarding: the war, campus opinion is again today on the pessimistic side.

Col lege men mark time in the classroom, awaiting their June 1 call to the draft army. Bull session topic number one is this: "Will we have to fight Ger many again? When?"

To bring campus thought into focus on a nation-wide basis Student Opinion Surveys of America present ed this question to a sampling of the enrollment: "Would you say that the United States is in effect already at war with Germany?" The results: YES said 76 NO said 24 (Only 1.3 per cent said they had no opinion on this issue). Three-quarters is a heavy majority and leaves no doubt as to the tenor of student opinion regarding our cur- ( rent part in the European conflict. This is not to say, however, that American students want to go to war. In numerous polls Student Opinion Surveys has found college youth favors doing all we can to stay out. A few months ago a majority disagreed with the general public (Gallup poll) in saying that it is more important to try to keep out of war than to help England, at the risk of being in volved.
