Current English

Main currents of opinion In England today, and the attitude of the
English people towards foreign influences and events were discussed
by Maj. C. Douglas Booth, of London, British officer, author and authority on British foreign policy, In
an address at 3 o'clock Monday afternoon at McVey hall to students,
faculty and guests of the University.
The Influences of imperial and
reactionary leaders, such as Winston Churchill, who believes in territorial expansion, and Lord
the Hearst of England,
were presented as opposing the liberal and labor parties which are
paciflstic and idealistic. "Between
these two extremes stand the great
mass of the British people," said
Major Booth. "This group was not
conscious until recently of Britain's
tremendous loss of prestige In the

would be extremely close. In the
senior election, the Independent
combine's leader expressed confidence throughout the day.
Members of the Mens' Student
council, which conducted the election, stated after the vote count
that they regarded the election as
being one of the "cleanest" as well
as perhaps the closest in campus
politics history.
The tactics used by the various
parties during the day showed the
uneasiness under which the "bosses"
labored. The combine's leaders talked excitedly and ran up large telephone tolls, telephoning to fraternity and sorority houses. They received the votes from these organizations in almost solid blocks,
counting the persons as having
voted for their particular candidates as the voters marked their

tallots.

America has been a Rip Van Winkle, but now
her score or more years is over. She has been
awakened from her long sleep by a philanthropic Englishman and is ready to continue her
progress with open eyes and renewed energy.
David Low, famous British cartoonist, is the
Englishman to whom America owes this newly
acquired spirit. To him goes the credit for finding us in a rut and graciously helping us to see
the way out.
It is unbelievable that we did not realize our
symbol which
trouble was in the
stands for our United States Uncle Sam. For
years we have been struggling blindly along, says
Mr. Low, represented by a lanky,
Yankee from down East, whom we have long ago
outgrown.
It is readily seen, as our English friend points
out, that the people of our country have become
citified and sophisticated, and that although the
picture of Uncle Sam was appropriate when
Thomas Nast, the great American cartoonist,
first drew the gentleman, he is now
That is the rut which we were in handicapped by an out of date symbol. To aid us in
coming once again into our own, Mr. Low sugman with horn
gests that a brisk business-likshoes and sporting a
rimmed glasses, sharp-toetuxedo would better represent this growing, aggressive, young country.
An Englishman has taken the first step in
modernizing our national symbol, but the
American people are quick to learn. We will
not be caught asleep again. There are other
out of date symbols which we can be the first ti

made to represent the prevailing mode of each

the country by wearing shorts and holding a
tennis racket high above her head and several
tennis balls in her left arm.

Everyone knows that our national bird, the
eagle, is becoming very scarce. Yet we still find

we have been overlooking the fact that there arc

United States. A popular election must now be
held to determine if it will be canaries or buzzards on our coins in the future.
