was issued last, the Stucommit ice lias admitted
rcjiit--scniativc-

of tlie pajwr to its several meetings,
and has consented to let students sit in hereafter provided they are "orderly and keep silence."
This, we believe, is a satisfactory arrangement,
and one which will benefit Ixtth the SGA and
the general student body in the long run. As
long as the meetings are ojen, and as long as
the campus press is permitted to rcjxm (with
discretion, of course) the salient facts of all
SGA proceedings, there should be little danger
of harmful rumors arising.
Then, too, it seems to us the arrangement is
only just.
No. 10 of the Student Constitution states, "All meetings of the Student Legislature shall be ojien to anvone in the University,"
and since no mention is made to the contrary
concerning admittance to committee meetings,
one can only conclude that this ruling applies
as well to the Legislature's agencies.
By-la-

Correcting Still Another
Error Made Last May
Among the many minor changes which this
(hanging world wrought during the past summer was a complete renovation of this writer's
opinion of one Charles A. Lindlergh, aviator.
Back in May, before France fell and the British Lalior party found its voice, we wrote:
"Almost overnight. Colonel Lindlx-rghas
replaced President Roosevelt as the hero of this
generation. We admire him for his coolness and
for his courage at standing up in the face fit
hysteria to point out that the sane first step in
defense should be to ascertain what one is defendingand to determine then what we shall
need to assure this defense and how we shall ;
alxut it."
We wish here and now 10 retract this statement, not so much from vacillation as from inter disillusionment. We thought at the time
that Lindbergh was a cool head giving voice to
a logical approach to the solving of the nation's
dilemma. His speeches have since indicated thai
such is not the case. His. from all indications, is
a mind warped bv distrust of the common
his words utterances similar to those of the Men
of Vichy and the Cliveden Set, who mouth-feFascism in its infancy and have clothed and
sheltered it now that it is a man and has lx come
the F.urotean status quo.
And. now that we are enabled to view the
man in bitter reality not obscured by an emotional reaction against the "warmongers," we

coin idence. then, ihal his words should jive
with theirs.
Perhaps, too. one cannot discount as a
influence his wife, the daughter of a former partner of J. PierjMmt Morgan, and author
of a recent lok entitled Thr Wave nf the Future,
thesis of which is that the present war is a world
crusade bv the "Fores of the Future" against the
"Fortes of the Past." The former, as presented
bv Mrs. Lindbergh, are lxIdly similar to Fascism's
philosophy, the latter strangely reminiscent of
the Declaration of Independence. The democratic ideal, she savs. is finished, hence there is nothing left to do but accept the alternative: totalitarianism. These beliefs are only too similar to
those expressed bv her husband.
It is with sincere regret that we must come
to such conclusions alwmt Colonel Lindbergh
and his very intelligent family. We can still recall d.ivs when we Hew a model airplane labeled
"Lind." anl were proud of the fact it was ours.
And we thought and still think North To Thr
Orirnt a great hook.
But the world seems to have away of disillusioning one about the men and things he admires most. Such a process appears to have been
the case here, so we can only shrug, sweep up the
the debris, and wonder who or what it will be
next.

The Vice Of The People
By MARIANNE HEWITT

Leonard Bell, Delt, claims first
place in Lida Stoll's league; he went
to bat before anyone else even got
on the field, and isn't out yet. Now
he's waiting around for all the others to get struck out so he can really
start pitching. "Faint heart sometimes wins fair lady" is pretty sound
philosophy.

ing of being left at the altar, left

but from inferences drawn from
exchanges of national colleges received in The Kernel office, the
University was left somewhere when
it declined to accept the CAA training for the school last year because
of the liability involved in spite of
the fact that more than 90 percent of the student body endorsed
such training.
Now that the present crisis has

Even though he has been condemned by democracies as the greatest threat to free principles, in spite
of the ruthlessness with which he

Adolf Hitler this week was designated by the freshmen class of
Princeton university as the greatest living person in the world today
for the second consecutive year in
the annual Daily Prinetonian poll.
And Just to show everything was
on the square and no hard feelings
about the whole matter, the frosh
selected Winston Churchill, English
Prime minister, as the second
person. Either the freshmen
were in frivolous mood or had a
liberal sense of humor, because
"Superman" gained fifth place. Supreme Court Chief Justice Charles
Evans Hughes ranked as America's
greatest living.
President Roosevelt, Wendell Willie, and Secretary of State Cordell
Hull followed in that order. Willkie
topped FDR as the frosh preference
for president, with Browder and
Thomas backed heavily.
