SORORITIES ARERUNNING SCARED
Ed. Note : The following was reprinted from the October 13t hissue of "The Varsity", Toronto's campus paper .
Sororities on the University of Toronto campus are run -
ning scared this week following charges by a negro studentshe tried to join a
bership .The Varsity intended to print
Barbara's story on Oct . 9 .The women's inter sororit y
group, Pan-Hellenic, asked th epaper to wait until they had ameeting.
A representative of Pan-Hel-lenic, Mari Snyder, said the Pan -Hellenic would issue a statement .
The Varsity withheld publi-cation for four days .
No statement was issued, othe rthan "No Comment" by Pan-Hel-lenic .
"Some students are of theopinion that on such a largecampus one vote makes no dif-ference," stated Meekison .
"This is not a good way t ofeel if you are at all interestedin your government . -
If no one voted there wouldbe no government, " continuedthe president .
"The meeting can be called t oorder and business brought for-ward unless the quorum is chal-lenged," said Meekison .
This means that any newbusiness can be brought up andpassed with the knowledge an dapproval of only a few students .
For example, the Engineersintend to bring up an amend-ment to the constitution at to -day's meeting .
Instead of one vote for eac hmember of the AMS, the Engi-neers propose :
Two votes to each active mem-ber in good standing of the En-gineering Undergraduate So-ciety .
One vote to each active mem -ber in good standing of the fol -

Barbara Arrington, 21, saidthe president of two of the soror-ities took her for a "walk aroun dthe block" and told her no onewould bid for her if she tried tojoin .
Before this, both sororities ,Kappa Kappa Gamma and DeltaGamma and publicly expressedinterest in having Barbara intheir chapters .
The executive members of th etwo sororities made it clear therewere no discriminatory clause sin their constitutions .
On the morning of the firstof a series of teas held to allowthe members and the prospectivemembers to look each other over ,Mary Jose Baker, president o fKKG, took Barbara for a littl ewalk .
The conversation that too kplace was rather confused .
Mary Jose said she wanted tosave Barbara any possible 'em-barrassment' and told her if shecontinued rushing, she would no tbe bid for by any sorority.
One reason given Barbara wasthat she had not been recom-mended by a member of the sor-ority chapter in New York, herhome town.

On Campus DemocracyToday the students of this university have the opportunity
to decide the fate of the Fall General Meeting .
The Student's Council has tentatively decided to abolish
the fall session and to carry all business to the general meetin g
'-next spring.
This has been done, they claim, because the student body
'as failed to show an interest in the meeting in past years.
If business is to be legally transacted during the meeting, 15
.per cent of the student body must be present . If there is no
{quorum, the $400 spent in setting up the armouries is sheer
waste.
Council also states that in past years there has not been
enough business in the fall to warrant a general meeting .
The Ubyssey feels that the termination of the fall genera l
meeting is an undesirable precedent . There is no good reason
• :why the meeting cannot be held closer to Christmas, by which
time more controversial topics will have had a chance to
develop and student interest in university affairs will hav e
correspondingly increased .
A good example of this is the resolutions which the leader-
„ship conference produced . If today's meeting had been planne d
for sometime in November, these resolutions could then have
`been discussed by the student body.
Apathy is generally held responsible for a citizen's loss
of democratic rights and it naturally follows that the same
apathy can restrict a student's freedom .
The various ways by which students on this campus can voic e
their opinions and grievances are limited . They can vote in stu-
dent council elections, they can, if they obtain 100 signatures an d
the approval of the student 's council, hold a general meeting ;
they can obtain 500 signatures and by-pass the council; or
they can speak up at the existing general meetings .
As it is no simple matter to obtain 500 or even 100 signa-
tures, and as voting for council elections does not, in reality,
solve current campus problems, the only sure way the students
can express their will is through the general meetings . Hence,
if one of these meetings is abolished, freedom of speech on th e
campus is limited to one general meeting in the spring . And
,by that. time it is obviously too late to accomplish anything
- worthwhile for that term .
We therefore urge the student body to attend today's gen-
oral meeting in the armouries so that (a) its opinion on this
main issue can be heard, and (b) there will be a quorum .
TOTEEfDS
By HENRY HAZLIT TEd. note: Due to increased
interest in the study of econo-mic philosophy, induced bythe current competition be-tween the USSR and the West-ern powers, we feel justifiedin printing the following in-formative article from News -week magazine .
* * *Adam Smith's "Wealth of
Nations," published in 1776 ,had tremendous influence onpractical policy; but that influ-once did not reach its peak un-til 50 or 60 years later . KarlMarx's "Des Kapital," pub-lished in 1867, has also, alas ,had tremendous influence —yet even that influence did no treach major importance unti la half century after publica-tion .
These examples illustrat ethe truth of Lord Keynes' ob-servation, in his "General The-ory," that "the ideas of econom-ists and political philosophers ,both when they are right andwhen they are wrong, aremore powerful than is corn- ,monly understood . Indeed thewhole world is ruled by littl eelse . . . Not, indeed, immedi-ately, , but after a certain inter-val . . ."
- -Today conservatives and tru e
liberals are entitled to takesome comfort- from this reflec-tion. For though in practicalpolitics, especially in America ,the assumption of statism, so-cialism, paternalism, and in-flationism were never moreprevalent, there are increasin gsigns in the academic and in-tellectual world of a turn inthought . If we confine our at-tention merely to what hashappened so far in 1959, I d onot think one could name ayear in the last 30 in which so
LETTER SThe Editor,

The Ubyssey ,Dear Sir :
Are we intelligent (and Ihope maturing,) students ableto make up our own minds byobjective consideration and per-sonal thought or are we apath-etic subscribers to perniciouspropaganda methods of mas spersuasion? I refer to the meth-ods used by certain studentson October 5th, 1959 to "en-courage" others to give blood.
To make my point clear , ;wish to state why we give bloodGiving blood is a sincere, per-sonal and VOLUNTARY act .Its purpose is to help our fel-low-men and is, in itself, anoble ded meaningful onlywhen motivated by genuin epersonal conviction .
Mass persuasion methodssuch as used today are to beadhorred . The real act of giv-ing blood must not be sullie dby a raucous loudspeaker unitsupported by a chorus of carhorns heckling the students inimperious maner to "get outand , bleed." Is such a sincer eplea?
Where does the persona lmotive of giving blood dis-appear to when we are soordered" to donate? - -Let's no tgive blood merely in order t obe a MOB-MEMBER BLEED-
NIK."
many consciously conservativebooks of high quality have ap-peared .THE 1959 RECOR D
Some of these have alread ybeen mentioned in this column .They include "The Roots ofCapitalism" by John Chamber-lain; "Power Unlimited—TheCorruption of Union Leader -ship" by Sylvester Petro ; "ThePublic Stake in Union Power, "a collection of sixteen lecturesby leading economists, editedby Philip D. Bradley, and "Pro-tracted Conflict," an analysisof Communist strategy, byRobert Strausz-Hupe and asso-ciates .
But there are many otherimportant books that I have nothad the opportunity to reviewor discuss . In the purely eco-nomic field there is "Manage dMoney at the Crossroads," ananalysis of the European experi-ence by Melchior Palyi, one ofthe most devastating attackson monetary planning andbuilt-in inflation that has ap-peared in a generation. Morelargely in the political fieldthere are "The Rise and Fal lof Society" by Frank Choco-rev; James Burnham's "Con-gress and the American Tradi-tion," and Allen Drury's pow-erful Washington novel, "Ad-vise and Consent ." In the inter-national field of the cold wa rthere is Willi Schlamm's "Ger-many and the East-West Crisis"—a best seller in Germany it-self.
Then there are books in th emore general fields of the arts,culture, morals, and education .Outstanding among these are"The Freudian Ethic, an Ana-lysis of the Subversion ofAmerican Character" by Rich-ard LaPiere, professor of so-ciology at Stanford, and "Th e

Editor ,Dear Sir :
It is only to be expectedthat when the Chancellor o four glorious University is alsofinancially concerned with th esuccess of the B.C.E. Transi tsystem that students wouldbe subjected to more than th eusual inducements to "take th ebus . "
However, as a dedicated be-liever in the concept of huma ndignity, I think we shouldrecognize this challenge to ourfreedom of choice and reactaccordingly.
I hereby beseech, yea entreatall students to defy the Uni-versity and the RCMP in al lmatters concerning parking .
Marks can't be withhel dfrom any large proportion ofthe student body and we al lcan't be put in jail .

-Leif -Ostensoe, 1st La wDear Sir:
Last week, as has happenedmany times before, a wellknown political figure visite dthe campus to discuss Canadianpolitics . The meeting developedinto nothing more than an air- --ing -of the "-party line" an doffered nothing - constructive
House of Intellect" by JacquesBarzun, provost of ColumbiaUniversity .SEMANTIC PROBLE M
Though most of the booksmentioned above are by uni-versity professors, they all re-pudiate one or, another of thestatist - socialist - Jacobin - ne wdealist - unbuttoned - "liberal"ideology that has dominatedAmerican economic, political ,cultural, and academic lifesince the days of the New Deal .But one problem is that thereis no entirely satisfactory nameeither for the philosophy whichis being rejected or for the newphilosophy which, in contrast ,is now being expressed .
This is illustrated by two ofthe books that must stand highon the list . One is "The Evolu-tion of a Conservative" byWilliam Henry Chamberlin ;the other is "Up From Liberal-ism" by William F. Buckley Jr .Both authors call themselve sconservatives . C h a m b e r l i nwrites: "Conservatives shouldstand strongly for a govern-ment of limited and divide dpowers, kept in equilibrium bya system of checks and bal-ances." Yet this was a centraltenet of the liberalism of theeighteenth and nineteenth cen-turies. Buckley brilliantly ex-coriates a philosophy he callsLiberalism, yet nearly all thedoctrines he decries are the op-posite of those of traditiona lliberalism. Notwithstanding 'th epresent confusing state of thevocabulary with which we are
compelled to deal, a turn of
thought away from paternal-
ism, statism, and socialism, andtoward conservatism and self-
discipline is increasingly per -
ceptible .

EDITO Rto the students of this campus .I have been at this Universityfor a few years now and amgeting fed up with the sloppyattitude of those political fig-ures who have not the decencyto indulge in enough researchto bring some constructivepolicy before us. Any parro tcan shoot the party line o rpromise bigger and betterthings than wie are now wit-nessing. I have tackled - thisproblem in my own groupand feel that we have rem-edied the situation . We .haveevidence that this . is not thecase in all political clubs onthis campus .
Perhaps all political organ-izations have to share theblame for the political stag-nation on this campus . Withsuch sloppy interest and think-ing as that lately exhibited,those who take no interest inpolitics may be doing a grea tservice to Canada by forcin gParty "Mouthpieces" to thin k
clearfly for themselves . Letpoliticians"dig" for their votes .When we areconvinced byintelligent effort, not only wil lour leaders be well informe dbut we -wil be also .

port to the idea and would of-fer tangible aid .
NIGHT BEFOREThe night before, in a specia l
plenary session, the congres sgave its assent to a scheme putforth by the University of To-ronto, which called for a tri-ennial assembly, with a budge tof $100,000 to discuss themes o fgeneral interest to all Cana-dians .
Mr. Douglas also asserted thathe would be prepared to strong-ly support any application to th eCanada Council, and that hewould further be prepared towrite supporting letters to oth-er possible contributors .

In -presenting Toronto's pla nto the session, Walter McLean ,U. of T. S .A, .C. president, saidthat all present services of N .F . .C .U.S . were valuable, but notenough to approach full justi-fication of the Federation .
Said McLean, " N F C, U Sneeds a raison d'etre . Is yourfaith in NFCUS great enoughto enable you to take a leap sothat you, and your fellow stu-dents, may be heard, and seenas a body? Let it never be saidof us that we were afraid to ad-vance boldly . "
The greatest opposition to theplan came from Peter Vita ofSir George Williams College ,who pointed out to the session ,"I feel that if we are fightingfor scholarships, then we can-not have a seminar, because thismoney ,should . be used to helpthe students through school . 'CULTURAL ACTIVITY

eluded that it should be foun dout not because Canada suffersbut because of the effect on theGeneral Assembly.
Don Johnston of McGill, oneof the two students at the Ni-geria Assembly, described it a s"lacking dynamic quality" andfelt that apathy .was omnipres-ent . He said "the majority of
was Inter- speakers limited themselves tonational General Secretary Bee- platitudes of praising the worksnerd Ducret, who had been sum- of WUS and justifying the ex-m'oned to this assembly by the istence of the . assembly . "
OLD BUDDIESHis impression was of "old
buddies getting together, thanksto WUS travel allowances ."
Johnston recommended tha tthe relationship between WUSof Canada and the internation-al level should be kept unde rreview- and "if this relationshipproves to be a liability rathe rthan an asset, steps should betaken to execute our own inter-national program through oth-er channels"
Resolutions presented Mon -day by the international affairscommittee approved the motio nthat the international secretar-iat be requested to submit an-nually progress reports of al lWUS projects to the GeneralAssembly, the National Com-mittees, and the local commit-tees .PROBLEMS
Most of Saturday was givenover to the discussion of prob-lems in the General Assembly.
Bernard Ducret, who had beensumnijoned in the event of thisdiscussion, told -delegates • thatthe assembly shouldn't be to oimpressed by . difficulties andthat too much emphasis shouldnot be placed on the GeneralAssembly .
"We should forget the irrele-vant personal difficulties in th eface of the . two . problems, h esaid . . '
Other business of the assem-bly :
1. The assembly approved thesite of the 1960 seminar, to beheld in Israel:
2. The Treasure Van has beentaken over as a WUSC sub-com-mittee and Mrs. Ethel Mulvaney .has been withdrawn to a posi-tion on the committee which ad-ministers it .NET ASSETS
Net assets of the Treasure Vanwhen it was turned over to WUSC were over $15,000 .
The Conference sent congratulations to the Canadian Govern-in proposing the scheme of ex-ment for its "excellent initiativechange of students between com-monwealth countries."
Dr . . Andrew Stewart, nation -al president' of WUSC, told del-egates the claims of WUS mustbe presented to the Canadianstudents in terms of their ow nenlightened self-interest .
He also warned that too oftenthe local WUSC committees em-phasized raising money insteadof concentrating on the real rea-sons and objectives of the organ-ization.

For years manyscientists have been trying t ofind the connecting link be-tween the South African near-men or ape-men, Australopithe-cus and Paranthropus, and trueman as we know him, from theprimitive Pithecanthropus i nJava and China on the one hand ,and the more advanced humans ,Atlanthropus, of North Africa ,and the skulls from Steinheimand Swanscombe in Europe o nthe other . Now at last we havegot this link .
"Here -is one of the missin glinks we have all been waitin gfor to bridge this gap . The newOlduvai skull represents theoldest well-established s t o n etoolmaker that has ever beenfound anywhere . We discoveredhim on living floor with ex-amples of the very primitivestone culture called Oldowanand the bones of animals, birds ,and reptiles that formed par tof his diet . This news was re -leased for the first time to m yscientific colleagues at thefourth Pan-African Congress o fPre-history at Leopoldville las tweek . "
(The report of Dr. Leakey' sannouncement to the congres swas published in the "Guardian "on August 24 .)
Leading anatomists, physica lanthropologists, palaeontologistsand geologists examined thespecimens . All were agreed tha there at last was a stone tool-making man who was a "man "from the point of view of tool -makers, but in other respectslinked with the Australopith ecinae near-man—the bridge be-tween near-man or ape-man andhirnself .
Dr . Leakey expects the skul lto go to the British Museum .He will give its definite age onreceiving the result of data hehas sent to an undisclosed estab -lishment in California which ha sthe only machine in the worldwhich can provide the precis eanswer.
