) RLD NEWS IN BRIEF STALIN ANSWERS Up to 11 o’clock Last Night. QUESTIONS ABOUT

Lusso Situation Tense

Lary of World News Taken from the Wire of the United Press

WASHINGTON�World tension mounted last night as the United State, awaited Russia’s explanation of her troop movements into

Iran and Moscow launching a new "war of nerve*" in the explosive

Middle East. Usi officials, making no secret of the situation’s gravity,

considered the reported movement of three Russian combat columns

into Iran as potential threat to Turkey and oil-rich Iraq as well aa

to Iran. In Teheran Premier Ahmed Ghavagn Essultaneh said he is inves-

t. gating rumors that the Russians are marching on the capital of that

-,untry. Turkish Embassy sources expressed alarm over reported Russian

troop movements In Iran but well informed British quarters said the

Russian movements now were believed to be smaller than originally

reported from Washington.

Pauley Withdraws Nomination WASHINGTON�President Truman yesterday reluctantly with-

drew his nomination of Edwin W. Pauley to be undersecretary of the

Navy, thereby ending a six-weeks Senate battle that split Democratic

ranks and forced Secretary of the Interior Ickes out of the adminis-

tration. In a letter to Pauley the President declared, "You stand before

your countrymen after vicious and unwarranted attacks with integ-

rity unscathed, with ability unquestioned, with honor unsullied."

Strikes Settled CHICAGO�Settlement of months-long strikes at General Motors

Corp. and General Electric Co. last night gave the nation’s economic

picture its brightest hue of the year. To brighten the picture further the Transport Workers Union in

Louisville unanimously approved a company-union agreement ending

the six-day strike against the Louisville Railway Co. and voted to

return to work today.

End Of Strike Hailed WASHINGTON�Settlement of the GM strike was hailed by

Secretary of Labor Lewis B. Schwellenback esterday as "A very defi-

nite victory for the people of the United States." "By the time the

year is up," he predicted, "we won’t inv.,. any labor difficulties. Both

sides will be in a better position to know what the future has in store

for them."

Churchill Speaks Friday Night NEW YORK�Winston Churchill, whose Fulton, Mo., speech was

the subject of a blunt attack by Generalissimo Joseph Stalin yesterday,

will speak on a national network broadcast Friday night.

Chinese Reds Repelled CHUNGKING�Nationallat troops of the 22nd army defending

Mukden beat back the first large-dicale communist offensive aimed at

wrestling the city from Nationalist control in a bitter three-hour battle

before dawn yesterday. Only three’ armed Russian soldiers remain in the city, guarding

the few supplies left at the railroad depot by Soviet troops who evacu-

ated Mukden March 7-10.

Safeguard A-Bomb WASHINGTON �Congress moved to strengthen legislation to

safeguard the nation’s atomic secrets by giving Be detector tests to

all workers at the Oak Ridge, Tenn., atomic bomb plants, it was an-nounced yesterday. �

Labor Settlements WASHINGTON�The wage stabilization board yesterday approved

an 18V2 cents an hour wage increase for 100,000 employee of the four

big rubber companies which are closely related to the steel and auto-

mobile industries.

Vandenberg Objects WASHINGTON�Sen. Arthur II. Vandenberg objected yesterday

to Sec. of Commerce Henry A. Wallace’s statement Tuesday that his

proposal, calling for a military board to serve as adviser to the pro-

posed Atomic Energy control commission, has "potentialities to deliver

us into the hands of Military Fascism."

Goering Testifies NUERNBERG�Herman Goering took the stand today in his own

defense and testified that he and Adolph Hitler modeled the absolute

power of the Nazi government on the example of the United States.

Cardinal’s Body Leaves Eirie SHANNON AIRPORT, Eirle�The body of Cardinal Glennon left

his native Ireland last night in a Trans-World airways plane bound

for St. Louis, where he will be burled Saturday in the cathedral he

built during his 42 years as Archbishop.

Cotton Margins Increased WASHINGTON�In order to curb speculation and force clothing

on the market, economic stabilizer Chester Bowies last night ordered

futures cotton margins on all exchanges increased to $30 a bate.

Nye Accepts Nomination BISMARK�Former Sen. Gerald P. Nye yesterday accepted nomi-

nation to fill the short term Senate post vacated last year by the

death of the late Sen. John Moses.

CHURCHILL SPEECH Moscow radio reported yester-

day an interview in question and answer form between a Pravda reporter and Generalissimo Josef Stalin. The interview, regarding Mr. Churchill’s recent speech at Fulton, Missouri, ran to wit:

Q. How do you assess the speech of Mr. Churchill which WILY made in the United States?

A. I assess it as a dangerous act calculated to sow the seeds of discord among allied govern-ments and hamper their cotrper-ation.

Q. Can one consider that the speech of Mr. Churchill’s is dam-aging ’to the cause of peace and security?

A. Undoubtedly: yes. In sub-stance Mr. Churchill now stands in the position of a firebrand of wen, and Mr. Churchill is not alone here. He has friends not only in England, but also in the United States of America. In this respect one is reminded remark-ably of Hitler and his friends. Hitler began to set war loose by announcing a racial theory de-claring that only people speaking the German language represent a fully valuable nation. Mr. Church-ill begins to set war loose by a racial theory, maintaining that only nations speaking the English language are fully valuable na-tions, called upon to decide the destinies of the world. The Ger-man racial theory brought Hitler and his friends to the conclusion that Germans, as the only fully valuable nation, must rule over other nations. The English racial theory brings Mr. Churchill and his friends to the conclusion that only nations speaking the English language, being the only fully valuable nations, should rule over the remaining nations of the world. In substance, Mr. Church-ill and his friends in England and the United States present nations not speaking the English lan-guage with something like an ultimatum ---’recognize our lord-ship voluntarily and then all will be well. In the contrary case war is inevitable.’ But the nations have shed their blood during five years of cruel war for the sake of liberty and the independence of their countries and not for the sake of exchanging the Lordship of Hitler for the Lordship of� Churchill."

Vocalist At Erin Dance Appleby Band Will Feature Top Singer Vic Selvey, At Friday Dance Vic Selvey, formerly with top notch bands in and around Chicago,

is featured male vocalist with the Clyde Appleby band which will play for the St. Patrick’s Day dance Friday evening. The dance is under the combined auspices of the freshmen and sophomore classes and will be held at the Civic Auditorium from 9 to I a. m.

"Wearin’ of the green" will be the theme carried out in the deco-rations for the dressy affair, A. the sophomore class are handling the publicity for the dance, the decoration* are under the direction of the freshmen, with Virginia Mahon as chairman. Aiding Miss Mahon on the committee are Jean Kinney, Elsie Lee and Betty Kin-ney.

sale in the Library arch and from class representatives for $1.20 per person. In charge of the ticket committee are Stephen Voorhees and Louise Ramos.

TRYOUTS FOR PLAY TONIGHT . The first tryouts for "Tonight

We Improvise," Pirandello com-edy which will be presented May 2, 3, and 4, in the Little Theater by the San Jose Players, were held yesterday afternoon at 4 o’clock in the Little Theater. Fur-ther tryouts will take place this afternoon, same place, same time. All interested persons are asked to be present.

There are 40 or more parts in the play, many of ’them very small, .according to Mr. James Clancy; speech instructor who will direct the production. No experi-ence is necessary to take part.

Complete scripts for the play are on reserve in the Library.

"Tonight We Improvise" is something definitely unusual, ac-cording to Mr. Clancy, especially in the way of presentation. Un-like the conventional play, "To-night We Improvise" does not stop for intermission and allow all concerned to take a few minutes’ rest, but goes right on, with the actors providing entertainment for the audience both in the audi-torium and the foyer. Some mem-bers of the audience even have speeches, it is said.

The plot of the play itself is "different," says Mr. Clancy. It concerns the difference between a person being himself and acting for the benefit of other people.

ANY VACANCIES? .Attention Students: Are you

vacating your room or apart-ment at the end of the quar-ter? If so, will you please notify the Dean’s office? In doing so you will be helping to alleviate the serious housing shortage.

Financial Adviser For Veterans Lists Administration Law

Mr. Harry Brakebill, veterans’ financial adviser, says that many questions have been directed to the Business office as to the items that will be furnished veterans attending college under the pro-visions of the GI Bill and Public Law 16.

The following regulations are quoted from the Veterans Admin-istration bulletin:

"Pursuant to the law and sub-ject to the allowable maximum expenditure for any one person, books, supplies, and equipment will be furnished by the training institution to persons enrolled in courses of education or training. Such items will consist only of those which are required of other students pursuing the same or comparable � courses, and in no instances greater in variety, qual-ity or amount than are required of other students.’

"Items which are commonly used for personal purposes, such as fountain pens, typewriters, ten-nis racquets, etc., although also used in connection with the course of education or training, will not be provided by the Vet-erans Administration.

EXTRA SESSION OUT THIS YEAR

Plans for an additional Summer Session which would last for four weeks have been dropped as a result of a survey which showed that few students would partici-pate.

The regular Summer session will still be held for the usual six weeks, July I to August 9, and students Will take as many as nine units.

Red Cross Contributions Coming Slowly According to Business office his opinion of the organization,

records $317.49 had been con-tributed by students, including organizations, and $731.00 by fac-ulty members to the annual cam-pus Red Cross drive by yesterday afternoon at 5 o’clock. The drive has been in progress since Monday and is scheduled to end tomorrow.

If the college is to fill the quota of $2200 by that time, say leaders Owen Broyles, economics instructor, and students, Pat Dun-lavy and Jackie George, both stu-dents and faculty members must contribute their share to the fund as soon as possible.

Students are asked to raise

$700 of the total; the faculty and employees, $1500.

Mr. Milton Rendahl, social sci-

ence instructor and former em-ployee of the Red Cross, asked for

declared, "Like every large or-ganization, the Red Cross makes

mistakes. I have heard many tales

regarding such errors, generally advanced in defense of refusal to

become a member. Some of them

are no doubt true; but as every student knows, the ’I know a man’ type of anecdote is not achnissable evidence and must be rejected by persons who strive toward ra-

tional behavior. I am personally convinced that Red Cross errors are less numerous and less flag-rant than is the case with most other organizations of similar size and purpose.

"There is no question in my mind but that the American Red Cross is worthy of the continued support of every citizen. It is es-sentially democratic in its organ-ization. Membership is open to all, and all members are encouraged to participate in policy determina-tion. This Is not true of every organization which appeals to us for funds. The strength of the Red Cross lies not in its paid pro-fessional staff, but in the people who volunteer their money and their services to achieve socially desirable goals in which they be-

. . . EDITORIAL . . . ’No Reward But A Thank You’

Fourteen years ago, in 1932, there was organized a new honor

society for sophomore girls. The object was to maintain an annual

succession of girls who, during their freshman year in college. had

shown interest in school activities, leadership, sholarship and char-

acter. Members would give their services wherever needed at school

functions, aid in campus drives and strive to maintain the high stand-

ards of student cordiality, general helpfulness and concern.

And for 14 years, under the guidance of Miss Margaret Twombly

of the Health department, the Spartan Spears have been perpetuat-

ing themselves in service graciously given without reward other than

a few "thank you’s."

The girls who wear the familiar white skirts�or, in winter, blue

�with gold blouses are for the one year representatives of as fine

a service organization as any campus can boast. Their accomplish-

ments are many. At the beginning of each quarter, but especially

at the opening of school- in the fall, Spears perform their greatest

single task in assisting the Health department with physical exam-

inations. Miss Twombly estimates that autumn quarter of last year

the Spears put in a minimum of 300 hours. Many of the girls returned

to San Jose from their homes a week early and worked as much as

five hours a day the six days preceding registration. And on "Reg"

day they serve too, directing and helping students in the gymnasium.

Over a period of years, Spartan Spears have donated, from their

own funds, obtained from weekly dues and profits at their traditional

Spardi Gras "coke" concession, a total of four beds in the Health

Cottage, complete with mattresses and side tables�at a cost of about

$120 apiece.

Spears assist with catering for Homecoming celebrations, Fresh-

man Orientation day programs, and annually act as waitresses for the

Patrons’ dinner. Recently Spears took the main burden of guide work

for the visiting day of local high school seniors to the college campus.

The Registrar’s office has benefitted from the help given during

the war, when Spears kept the records ’of Spartans in the services

up to date, and managed arrangements for the sorority-made service

flags which now hang in the Morris Dailey auditorium. Hundreds

of hours have been spent by Spears working in the Red Cross Sewing

room, as well. Latest contribution was $100 given to the Memorial

Chapel fund.

In fact, if one wished to recount all the activities of our Spartan

Spears, he could go on for pages: but when he finished, the Spears

would have done a couple of more things.

And through the years, the experience in service seems to stay

with the girls who have been Spears, and they go on in the helpful

track they took during their sophomore year. Adele Abeyta, a Spear

of former years, is right now serving in the Health Cottage, helping

to tide the Health department over the nurse shortage. Miss Abeyta

has just been discharged from the Army after four years in the South

Pacific.

Words of appreciation are for the most part vain and of little use; but the Spartan Daily with full sincerity and deep appreciation

can say to the Spartan Spears, along with the chorus of the many

to whom their assistance has meant so much, "THANK YOU; AND

MAY FUTURE GENERATIONS OF SPARTAN SPEARS SERVE WITH

EQUAL GRACIOUSNESS AND GENEROSITY." �Webster

THRUST and PARRY

COME TO OUR FORUMS Thrust and Parry and Mr. Pearson:

,Why do you always level your

attacks against the Soviet Union

and so obviously omit such Fascist

strongholds as Franco’s Spain?

Certainly our boys haven’t been

fighting Fascism abroad for the

past three years and then to have

somebody here at State continue

Hitler’s unfinished business of di-vide and conquer with the intent of embroiling us in a senseless

war with Russia.

It seems to me that you pos-

sess little factual knowledge re-

garding Soviet Russia. We have

been having sonic very interest -

Mg forums on this subject, but

at each one of these you seem to

be conspicuously absent.

HAIL, THE TELETYPE! Dear Thrust and Parry:

Orchids to the Daily. Now we can save our nickles and still know what’s going on in the world beyond Washington Square. The teleprinter was a wonderful invention and now we have one too.

We also like the idea that we can go into the "Pub" and watch the "printer" at work. But some-thing that came over the wire today has us worried�is the beer shortage really so acute that this summer will be spent in partak-ing of that insipid beverage known as lemonade? Tell us it isn’t so!

But, seriously, being able to read a summary of the latest news while we jog down the halls to our 10 o’clocks, gives us the feeling of the "well-informed" be-ing. And after all, someone --namely our parents�told us that that was what we had been sent here for anyway.

We are now happily awaiting the day when the Daily starts a comic strip.

Veteran Fred Dohr visited Mr. L, C. Newby in his intermediate German class Friday. Back in 1936 he was taking German from Mr. Newby and when he was inducted into the Army he was chosen, from among many others, to take an extensive course in the lan-guage because of his ability. Later Dohr became a member of the Army’s secret service and went into Berlin. He was telling the class and Mr. Newby some of his experiences. COOK VISITS

DAY EDITOR�this issue�BONNIE GARTSHORE

To Ensure World Peace Russia has as much basis for fear of the United States as the

United States has of Russia. Two big nations existing in a state of fear are dangerous to the peace of the world.

The existing suspicion between the two countries has resulted in Russia protecting her interests eve-ywhere possible, building up a wall of secrecy around her, and leading her to suspect the same of the United States. Nothing could be more likely to confirm their suspicions

than continuance of an American attitude suggesting the absurd fantasy that there is no Russian -American problem.

The Soviet Union as well as the American people would welcome a firm and forthright declaration of some official policy. Both countries ore suspicious of all this soft talk and would be relieved to know what

our policy really is instead of suspecting what it might be at its worst.

Russia fears that America will become the bulwark of reaction,

using her prestige and resources to push forward her ideas of govern-

ment and economy, while at the same time the United States believes the USSR still harbors the thought of Bolshevizing the world. We fear Red imperialism and the abolition of private property.

Russia seems more intent upon building up her own Socialistic

state and setting it as a model to the rest of the world. For mere

security reasons Russia has a new geopolitical outlook which is concern-

ed with surrounding herself by favorable governments. In part this would eliminate the fear of her neighbors becoming spring boards of

attack. Russia’s interest in post-war Germany is not to destroy her

people but to smash her military power so she will be free from the

aggressive ambitions of a strong state.

Cooperation with Russia doesn’t mean the United States should yield to every Soviet desire, but there should be enough cooperation

to prevent a situation which would inevitably lead to war. It is neces-

sary, too, that the State department make some official declaration

as to its policy towards Russia. �Frates

LIBRARY ARTS READING ROOM ADDS ELEVEN VOLUMES OF FOLK SONG

By WALT CRANOR

The Arts reading room of the Library now has 11 volumes of Folk Songs, recorded by the Li-brary of Congress. These records are of folk songs taken from all over the United States. The first six volumes were collected by Mr. Allen Lomax, while the rest were done by Mr. James Weldon John-son and Mr. B. A. Botkins.

For many years, the folk songs of the United States have been of an interest to foreigners visit-ing the U.S. In the countries of Europe, and especially in Ger-many, collections of recordings of folk songs have been made. In Germany, they were collected to show the different dialects of the German language.

GREAT VARIETY This collection includes folk

songs from all over the United States. Some of them have never been heard any further than five miles from the place where they originated. There are really only four types of folk songs in the collection; that is, Anglo-Ameri-can, Afro - American, Bahaman songs, and Songs from Irquois’ Longhous, the latter is found in volume six.

The Anglo-American folk songs include ballads, shanties, play and dance songs, and fiddling. The Afro-American folk songs include spirituals, work songs, ballads, calls, blues, game songs and re-ligious songs. The Bahaman songs are the French ballads and dance tunes and the Spanish religious and game songs that are found in the United States.

20,000 REQUESTS A widespread and deep interest

in our native music still exists members of the Daily staff in and this has scarcely been tapped his classes, Dr. Raymond Barry, and certainly not been satisfied.

(Continued on Page 4) The Library of Congress received

20,000 requests for further infor-mation about these records when the announcement about them flrst came out.

Allen Lomax started recording songs with his father, John Lo-

max, several years ago. They have

recorded over 10,000 songs, many of which had never been heard more than five miles from the prisons, corrals or lumber camps where they were recorded.

OWN RECORDER Lomax carried his own record

ing machine with him when hi. went in search of folk songs, and often times he got his recordings right from the native singers, litural4 in their back yards. This would accord for some of the noisy roughness of some of the records.

In volume eight of this col-lection is found the Negro work songs and calls. These are very interesting, as they are taken from songs sung by the head man of a work gang. The words to these songs are actually in-structions to the workers put to music. Every step of a certain job is covered by the singer and the workmen follow his directions No two verses are the same.

NOTICE Next meeting of the San Jose

detachment of the Marine Corps League will be held Friday, March 15, at Brown’s Hall, 1352 Lincoln Ave., Willow Glen, 8 p.m. There will be an initiation of new Ille111-

BASEBALL SEASON TO OPEN FRIDAY

Sun Jose State’s 1946 baseball season officially opens tomorrow afternoon when the Spartan horse-hiders tackle the St. Mary’s Gaels of Moraga valley at 3 o’clock on the latter’s diamond.� -- -

The following day Coach Ralph Johnson’s squad will cross the bay to engage the San Francisco State Gators at Ocean View Park. Game time is set for 2:30..

San Francisco State is consid-ered to be the tougher of the two opponents the Spartans will tackle. The ’Gators have chalked up two impressive wins, one over San Mateo JC 8-4, and the other over San Francisco JC by a 9-4 count.

GAELS HAVE SPLIT On the other hand, the Gaels

have split their first two games. St. Mary’s lost to Stanford a couple of weeks ago 3-11, but came back last Sunday to dump the Broncos of Santa Clara 9-5.

Santa Clara outhit the Gaels 10-7 but at the same time com-mitted nine errors, which con-tributed heavily to their down-fall. St. Mary’s .has a couple of good chuckers in Rial and Mul-lins, and a good short stop in Vinther.

Harm Wedemeyer carries the heavy bat for the One’s. He is currently batting in the clean-up spot behind Galvin�the man of basketball renown. "Wedey" will be remembered as the Gaels’ rep-resentative on the 1945 All-American grid machine.

S F S SATURDAY Coach Ralph Johnson will bring

his forces back to San Jose Fri-day night for a one night stop, and then return to the bay area Saturday to match talents with the Gators of SFS.

11 any of you Spartans or Spar--tanettes are around San Fran-

cisco, don’t forget to drop over

to Ocean View Park at 2:30 Sat-

urday afternoon. You’ll see a lot

of good baseball.

SOFTBALL LEAGUE TO BEGIN EARLY IN SPRING QUARTER

If everything goes according to plan, the 1946 softball league ought to get under way about the second week of the spring quarter.

Ed Louden has agreed to Lan -die the scheduling of games again this year, but doesn’t want to take the responsibility of having the equipment on hand at game time. That should be left up to the respective managers of the different clubs.

Louden will handle the general management of the, league, and as has been the practice in past years, the Spartan Daily will Sponsor the tournament.

If team managers of the dif-ferent fraternity entries and in-dependent clubs could get in touch with Louden, a meeting could be arranged to determine league rules this year.

Eligibility concerning varsity baseball players, type of pitching that is to be used, and number of players allowed on a roster, all have to be decided on in the very near future. The Spartan Daily is still open to receive entry lists from the different clubs.

SAN JOSENITA HANDICAP TODAY

By VROOM All entries having spent a good

night in their stalls munching

hay, the annual running of the San Josenita Handicap will take plat* on the Spartan oval south of town at 3:30 o’clock this afternoon.

Starter Bud Winter stated that Bill Perry has been living in the boiler room for the past two days in an effort to lose an approxi-mate 75 pounds and should be in top form if he has any strength left to leave the boiler room.

EVENTS TODAY Events to be run off this after-

noon include the 75-yard dash, 70-yard hurdles, 150-yard dash, 352-yard dash, high jump,. discus and javelin. Schedule of tomor-row’s events will be announced in tomorrow’s edition.

The four class presidents will be on hand to coach their respective entrants to a cinch victory with complete disregard to the rest of the field.

Times for the hoofers should be good if the weather lends a kind hand to the performers. Yester-day’s cool breezes kept most of the competitors in the stable with

the exception of a short exercise lap under the direction of stable boy Marvin "Monster" Langholff.

LONG SHOT Bookies are running wild, what

with the uncertain odds placed on the entries yesterday but it is rumored you can spend the rest of your life in comfort for a fin

FREE AIR

Much is said, usually, about the roaring March winds. And the lion that March comes in as and then goes out like a lamb. Up to yesterday we weren’t able to say anything in particular on the sub-ject because of the balmy days we’ve been having. But yesterday had our glorious, most favorite weather. The wind was an icy blast and it blasted the clouds out of their gathering blanket and swirled them all over the sky. The photography students were out getting cloud pictures but we wanted to cut school and run up to the foot hills. It was a perfect day for just walking and walk-ing! So we sat through a couple of lectures and toyed with a tyre-wiiter and spent the golden mo-ments of our youth in a musty office.
