Liberal DrivelShakespeare summed up perfectly the recent bleating s

of the campus Liberal Club . "Full of sound and fury signifyingnothing . " Absolutely nothing.

Liberals, "infuriated " over the recent NFCUS-sponsore d"political" speech of Attorney-General Robert Bonner passe da motion condemning the local branch of the national studen tfederation .

Mr. Bonner's speech was one of an excellent series o ftalks on Canada the campus NFCUS committee is sponsoringthis year. There was nothing political about hs speech . Hemerely outlined some of the problems facing the nation gen-erally and B.C . specifically in our rapidly expanding economy .It was more of a statistical review than anything else .

However, the campus Liberals, not unnatural, don't likeMr. Bonner and so they condemned his speech and his sponsors .

"This motion will start the ball rolling," commented Libera lClub President Darrell Anderson . "From now on the Libera lClub will continue to press for the collapse of NFCUS." It'sso long since the Liberal Club, or for that matter anyone ofthe campus political clubs, have done anything constructiv ethat the Liberals evidently thought they might as well d osomething destructive .

prepared statement whith wel t'given the paper, and Whichthe editor did not see fit toprint. If The Ubyssey wishes toquote individual opinions, wel land good, but we must mos tvigorously protest this ratherunderhanded trick of givingoficial endorsement to person-al opinions .

Briefly then, our stand wasthat the students of this uni-versity do not pay NFCUS$3000 per year to sponsor poli-tical speakers, when the poli-tical clubs bring the studentsthis service for nothing, ifthey consider this to be theirreal function, then by logicalimplication they have in fact ,no real function whatsoever.

It is the responsibility an dindeed the duty of the politica lclubs to sponsor politica lspeakers . This responsibility isfar removed from the concernof NFCUS, if they cannot findanything more profitable to do ,they have outlined their use-fulness .been around a long time!), o r

from its extent (the eight hun-dred million living Christians: .look at all the people and art 'and kinds and countries!) 'T oquote, in this unlikely context ,from Mrs . Browning, "Love sowrought can be unwrough tso." A faith grounded , just onsweep and numbers and colorand longevity is at their mercy .And, anyway, is that the basi sof a man's faith, that this i ssomething big and booming ?Nothing about truth or sin, o rinner satisfaction of the soul?

—Executive of Liberal Club .

Christianity"ith Scope

Life magazine, in its big year-end issue, gave to Christ-ianity that panoramic grandeur which it gives to every goldensubject it really likes: American food, American capitalism ,American musical comedies, America in general . Now it wasAmerican Christianity, with a little side glimpse at Christian-ity in colorful India and troubled Europe toward the end .

The pages were spread with()the Onward March of Faith. . . the Unprecendented Waveof Religious Observance . . .the Biggest U.S . Archdiocese

. . with splendid reproduc-tions of religious art, an dhymns, prayers, and creed i nmassive colored Gothic script .We looked for a word to des-cribe that grand, sweeping, in-clusive . colorful quality Lifegives to everything it touches ,and we remembered one ofa Hollywood producer is saidto use. He says, somewhat tothe mystification of his col .leagues, that every one of hi smovies must have it : "Scope . "Well, Life's 35 cent, 168-page ,double-barreled issue showe dthat Christianity—like Ameri-ca and Time, Inc .—has scope .

NOTICES

The attitude of the Liberal Club is akin to that of a spoile dbrat who flies into a tantrum when his mother won 't buy himan all-day sucker. Instead of trying to destroy NFCUS whydon't the Liberals help. try and improve it and make it aworthwhile organization .

Exit AttleeFROM THE NEW YORK TIMES

Soon after Clement Attlee became Prime Minister, a grou pof worried Laborites approached Foreign Minister Ernest Bevi nto ask if he or one of the other more dynamic chiefs wouldbe willing to take over from "Clem." "Hell," said Mr. Bevin,"I'm a prima donna, Cripps is a prima donna, and Morrisonis a prima donne . We're all a let of bloody prima donnas an dwhat 's needed is someone like Attlee to keep us in order."

For 20 years Mr . Attlee kept them in order . How he didit is a psychological - political question likely to intrigue futur eLabor historians . For Mr. Attlee does not conform to the con-ventional picture of a successful politician .

It was MacDonald's decision to form a National Govern-ment in 1931—which other Laborites called a "sell-out"—tha tpaved the way for Attlee's rise to leadership. As a result ofMacDonald's action, Labor went into the election of 1935 di-vided and with little power . It came out with still less . Attleewas one of three Laborite M.P.s with ministerial experienceto survive the election. Moreover Attlee—shy, selfless, hard -working, quietly effective—provided a sharp contrast to th e•rilliant MacDonald . Attlee was elected party leader in 1935 .

The rest has been front-page history—formation of the war-ime National Government with Chur:hill as Prime Ministe r:nd Attlee as deputy P .M . ; Labor 's sweeping election victory in945 ("This is incredible, " said Attlee as the returns poured in) ;is accession to the Prime Ministershp: his sponsorship of th ear-reaching socialist revolution (as bloodless, said London'sits, as Mr . Att'.,'e) : his decision to free India, Burma andeylon; finally, in ISa51, Laho s'e election defeat. and Attlee' ;alum to the rde of Laenie1 '

COURAGEIt took courage and plannin g

to treat this subject, for i tmeant picking and choosing ,delving into matters on whichevery reader has his feelin gand prejudice, balancing Cath-olic and Protestant, Billy Gra-ham and Harvard, and settin gaside a couple of pages inwhich to confine the world ,the flesh, the devil, and thetheologians .

To put nut such an issue wa sIto risk heartfelt criticism fro mevery sect and every side, athing editors are not oftenwilling to do . The risk was al lthe greater because Life n olonger contented itself wit hthe position of a detached on -looker, as it had in earlie rarticles on Hinduism, Budd-hism, and such : This time ,along with the words and pic-tures about the march and th echallenges, the rugged basisof American Protestantism an dAmerica's moral consensus, th etestimony of a devout Presi-dent and the Apostles' Creed ,could be heard the unmistak-able sound of drums .

FORTUN EIn an article in Fortune ,

Editor Henry Luce set fort hmore explicitly his hopes fo rAmerica a n d Christianity .(Again, it's a little hard to dis-tinguish .) By 1980, in his soar-ing vision, with our technicaldevelopment we may become"Collaborators with God incharge of evolution," we ma y"Christianize Atlas" and havea "spiritually oriented" evolu-tion, whatever that is; we wil lhave overcome the habit ofpoverty, perfected the HighOrganization of what Sciencecan do to Nature, and be readyfor a "greater Renaissance "that will not be pagan." Thatvision has Scope all right. Itis Life-like, and it goes wellin the burgeoning, wealth yFortune-extolled America fromwhich it comes . But how doesit differ from any other enthus-iastic boom—except maybethat in this full employmentboom of ours, God too is givena job as a collaborator? Aswe read Mr. Luce's glowingwords and those endless even-gelical pages of Life on Amer-ica and Christianity, we beginto yearn for something Christ-ian, and something American ,that is missing . The Christiannote that's not really there i scontrition ; some sense of a dis-tance between our nationalethos, our "evolution," ou r"collaborating with God," an dan ever-questioning faith . TheAmerican note that's missin gis a bit of frontier skepticis mand humor . After pages andpages of this sober stuff w ebegin to hear a very America nvoice, perhaps Mark Twain ' s ,saying as Life's parade marches Phonetoward that big blend of tech- and 0nology, Christianity, and Am -

ericanism in a great unpagan

Afro-Cuban Jazz came toUBC Wednesday in the formof Paul Suter's Sextet . AsAfro-Cuban jazz, it was a dis-tinct failure; but taken as aNorth American jazz quarte tplus two South Americandrummers, its successes wer econsiderable .

The group was attempting,as beret clad leader Suter in-timated, to fuse elements o fSouth American rhythm an dNorth American improvise djazz into something meaning-ful and fairly new .

BILLIOU SThe attempt failed . Latin

America was suitably repre-sented by bongos and congadrum ; American jazz was re -presented by four Vancouver-ites who played—and looked—very much like Americanjazz musicians. But North andSouth never really got togeth-er musically, and the resul tsounded something like a bi-lious Dave Brubeck Quarte twearing huaraches .

This is not to say that in-dividually, the musicians didnot play well . They did; andsometimes they played ver ywell indeed .

But something vital wa smissing; the good neighborpolicy went down in musica lflames .

PRECISEThe South American con-

tingent (Rodriguo and Ren eDel Diego on bongos and con-ga drum respectively) wer edriving and precise ; butthrough no fault of their own ,they contributed little . TheSextet was actually a thor-oughly North American jazzquartet, with two latin drumsadded ; and the whole was de -finitely no more than the su mof its parts .

and Suter's piano combine dto create a lovely, spun-glassmood, which was unfortun•ately shattered by the tenorsaxophone, which really didnot fit in on that particularnumber .UNSOLICITE D

Unsolicited advice to leade rSuter: stick to piano and leavethe MCing to Alec Templeton .Suter's MCing eforts, to pu tit charitably, were painful t owitness . They marred a per.formance that was, despitesome considerable discrepan•des, thoroughly creditable .
