PAGE TV0 THE, DAILY TAR HEEL Johnson & The Facts Of Political Life Senate Majority Leader Lyndon Johnson learned just lion far Texas is from Chicago lvhejj lie pi( k,ed up liis Sunday morning pa pcr. And the. country, ue think, saw the para doxical hej;innin of the m; presidential campaign. , The Democratic Senate Sender had just told Texas reporters on Saturday that he hoped hoth parties would shun foreign af fairs as a presidential issue and confront the world with Amity on foreign affairs. Meantime, in Chicago, leading Democratic presidential contenders, kd the greatest front al attack on the Administration foreign poli cy in the last two or three years. As New- York 'Limes reporter James . Reston so consent ly put it: "The paradox of this is that the three principal Democratic candidates lor the presidency (Stevenson, Havriman. aiid Kef'auver) have been leaders in the eleven-year campaign fo keep foreign policy out. of partisan politics, and they con tinue appealing for bipartisanship." Suppose the Democrats listened to the calm words of Senator Johnson and kept foreign po!i( v out of t lie campaign. What would this mean? As we see it, it would be just as wise' per haps more legitimate, since neither party has a pat answer) to keep the'ftirni problem -out of the i)V contest. After all, this is primarily a (juestion of stored surplus and low farm prices, and .thai is an economic, not a politi cal question. And then there's the oft-heard issue of se curity in government. Isn't this just a ques tion of fair administration of justice, of re vising the -present laws to provide for that? Thus, this miaht be termed a legal problem not a political one. We could go on in like manner about every single issue-either party could drag into tJie battle, including the Republican (and now Democratic) boast of peace and prosperity. And it would lie found that hone of the is sues are strictly political, that neither party has a sharp1ycontrasting manner of dealing with the issues. i - : : A Mighty Army On A Gomfrfajbeadvy The church of Cod, in the words of the!: old hymn, is "one in Faith, one in Hope, odeij, in Charity" a ic' "likti a mighty army, inarch ing as to war'K . . ; - j !

ED YODER Goeffingen Letter- Dave Mundy Once a German passes his "Abitur" at 19 or 20 he may en ter, if he can afford it, one of the universities or technical "Hoch seh.ulen." Although the tendency is now not so pronounced as earlier, students like to move on to an other university after a semester or two at one. German universi ties are located, at Berlin, Bonn, Erlangen, , Frankfurt an Main, Freiburg Goettingen, Hamburg, Heidelburg, Kiel, Kohn (Cologne), Mainz (Mayence), Marburg, Mu chen (Munich), Munster, Tubin gen and Wurzberg. Berlin and Goettingen, on the average, are the best even though Tubingen and Freiburg have more impressive theology facul ties. Heidelburg, thanks to ro mantic 'considerations "made in Hollywood," has more American students. Bonn, because it is the government seat and easily pro nounceable,' attracts many for eigners. Most of thein leave as soon as possible. -Communist Germany's univer sities are in .Berlin, Leipzig, Ro stock, Greifswald, Halle and Jena. The comparison between a univ ersity and technical "Hochschule' is roughly the same as the com parison between UNC and State College. They are located in Aachen, Berlin (Einstein's last professorship before leaving Ger many), Braunschweig, Darmstadt, Hannover, Karlsruke, Munctien, and Stuttgart. Thanks to the sound education al job already done, German uni versities have few of the prob lems besetting American univer sities. Humanities vs. natural sciences, broad general educa tion? Quatsch'TThat word" maans what you expect.) Students can take whatever courses they please. They may have one or two exams during their college career, but the big one is the final state or academic "Prnfung." I M); ' !. f I Universities' are organized Into .faculties: theology, mathematics natural science, Pilof hphy iMed-j Uciiic, forestry, atyriculWre', etc. Universities in th Catholic areas of Soufh Germany and the Rhine lariH have only Catholic theology1 faculties; Bonn has two theology faculties. Others are Trotestant. The co-ordinating body is the Senate, the members being elect ed from the faculties. Most mem bers are ordinary professors. The lecturers may have one or two representatives. Berlin's FreeUni versity has several student mem bers. The administrative and cer emonial chief, of the university is the Rector whom one addresses as "Magnificence!" All the uni versities are state institutions. The "Culture Minister" ofeach of the Federal Republic's states has the final decision on whether or not a professor will be employed. - The average age for becoming a full professor, at the sum of about $5,000 a year, is 47. In all of Germany there are only 20 professors under 39 years of age. The only was to become a pro fessor in Germany is to marry a rich wife. One becomes sfamous by living for a long time and hanging on to one's professorial chair. And a last note; the Goettingen University Library is open two hours a day, 4 or 5 days a week. It takes 24 hours to get a book from the collection of 2 or 3 million. 'Now If I Were Editor Of The Daily Tar Heel.

Roth men are personable and bear excellent reputations but it will be quite inv T0S5ibie even for GOP Chairman Leonard Hall tj confuse them with an egghead. In fact, an old-time reporter was heard murmuring: "Two less eliptical heads I have never seen." Raskin will also serve as a buffer state between two important Cliicagoans who are not very friend ly to each other. One is Jake Arvey, the Cook Cocnty leader, who first brought Stevenson into the Illinois political picture and helped elect him governor in 1948. Arvey is described as making a comeback in influence and importance. Stewart Alsbp 7 CHICAGO this last week in Chicago has been; of course, very ' much Adlai Stevenson's week. He has been front and center, while his two chief rivals, Averell Harriman and Estes Kefauver, to their visible annoyance, have been cast as supporting players, peeking shyly out from the wings. " Yet Stevenson's week has not been a complete success all,, the sam. Stevenson has, one great central problem as a political lea der. After a time, the American public develops a mental ima ge, which is often more carica ture than a faithful portrait, of any leading American politician. With a lot of help from Steven son's enemies, and a good deal of help from Stevenson himself, the public image of Stevenson is beginning to be that" of an intelligent but indecisive : man, honest but uncertain. Such a public image of Steven son could be politically fatal. Therefore, as many of his friends and supporters are well aware, his first objective must be to smash tile image, and replace it with an image of confidence and decision. Stevenson could have begun to smash the image last week. But he has failed to do so. On the contrary, the image of uncertainty, has been strength ened. To all questions about his plans for primaries, other than Minnesota, Stevenson answered that, he had not made up his mind. He even replied that he had not yet decided when asked whether he would go into Min nesota to campaign. The fact is that Stevenson is not only undecided in his own mind about his political strategy, he has also been receiving divid ed counsel.

He is seeking, counsel on foreign policy from Deaii Acheson; he keeps in very close touch with the scholarly Tom Finletter, formerly Secretary of the Air Force. There are several reasons for . Stevenson's con spicuously firmer grasp on his affairs. He himself has had an immensely active three years, traveling, writing and seeing people. In person and by mail they have registered an admiring confidence in him which has had its effect. ' ?AIso, in 1952 Stevenson did not feel strongly about General Dwight D. Eisenhower. He does feel strongly that President Eisenhower has not fulfill ed the hopes held out by and forhim; in fact, Stev enson is quite honestly indignant about much that has ben done and much more that has not been done and much more that has not been done. This means that a rather considerable body of inhibi tions which he did not mention publicly but which policy of minimum risk. d;iuu;-V m Foreign Students Arpu-: .
