Doctor Barnes staUd that the
propaganda designed to involve us
in war when the second war comes
will be far more potent than it was
in 1914 and 1917.
"The wartime lying will be much
better in its technique." the speaker said, "and the belligerents will

about, and they already have a far
greater variety of things to lie with.

Also President McVey was teaching a course in sociology dealing
with the individual in a social organization and showing how the
economic and social forces affect
the individual.
The News contained a story dealing with the Woman's building, formerly President Patterson's home,
which had een decorated and furnished for the benefit of University
women and had been formally
opened in the spring of 1933. Since
the erection of the student union
building, the woman's building has
been turned into a faculty building,
replacing the faculty clubroom formerly in McVey hall.

World war was voiced yesterday by
Dr. Harry Elmer Barnes when he
addressed 1200 students of the
Summer Session at the second general convocation in Memorial hall.
"The main lesson for the United
States is that we should do all in
neutrality
our power to
.entiment in this country. We should
refuse to be drawn into any conflict
and spend our blood and dollars to
compensate for the blow to British
strength and prestige which was administered by the Tory gang in the
last year," he said.
"While on our guard against foreign propaganda likely to involve
us in war," continued Doctor Barnes,
"we must also be thoroughly alive to
the dangers inherent in the propaganda of those Americans who wish
to get the United States immediately involved in another war to make
the world safe for democracy.
"Specifically, we have reference
to the blandishments of the undoubtedly
'Common
Front Boys.' No sane person can
have any objection 'to a common
moral front in standing against the
forces of dictatorship.
But this is
something quite different from engaging in a second world war to
discipline foreign states whose political systems we do not happen to
like.
Indefensible
"The Comomn Front philosophy
was indefensible even before the
Munich conference, but it is utterly
ludicrous today. About the only
democratic states which remain are
a few small countries determined
beyond all else to maintain their
neutrality to the last ditch.
"To line up and shed our blood
in company with Tory Britain and
a France led around y the nose by
means of Tory finance would be as
to proabsurd as it was in 1914-1- 7
mote the cause of Democarcy in the
company of the Czar and his armies."

ARESAMG?

of a Young Man"
By John Dos Passos
Disillusionment in the ability of
the Communist party to solve the
economic ills of the nation furnishes the central theme for John
Dos Passos' latest novel, "The Adventures of a Young Man."
Dos Passos still holds the belief,
expressed in his earlier books, that
the capitalistic system must go, but
he now feels that the Communist
party is not the instrument for
removing our present scheme of
things.
Missing in "Adventures of a Young
Man" is the
style used
by Dos Passos In his "U. 8. A."
triology. No headlines and snatches
of song, no biographic poetry, no
bits of Impressionistic writing are
present to distract from the central
story, the life of Glen Bpotswood.
Spotswood, an earnest young radical, is an interesting character.
