DON 'T THINK : CONFORM

'l'hc day seems to be rapidly approaching when the so-called Ameri­l'an ri ghts or '' life, libert~, a nd the pursuit of happiness'' will .~e . r e­garded as transtic. Blue nosed reform ers and amateur politicians haYc taken the husiness of determining t he l'ules of the game of life upon themsclHs. 'l'hey have ought, by conniYance and legisla tion , to ·· l'cg-nlate c,·p1·yt hin g fro m the· makin" of. mince-pies in the private citizen's own homl' to d ictat ing the clays on which he may haYe l11 s shot's sh illl•d.

Th mayor of CollinsYille. New .Jersey. has b~ticked a measure t hrough t·o nt rolling the \\' earin g ot' knickers- in l1is domain. Today a fine of $2flfl wi ll be imposed upon any woman appearing in knicker s on the stn,l'ls o[ CollinsYill,c . Out of the magnanimity of his hear t he has di..tated that he \\'ill tche rate it one night a year: Rallowe'en. 'l'hat means t hat it is immoral and improper every day of the year except Halloll'c'en. On that day. by special indulgence, the·1!1 orals of t he ha ml et of Colli 11 s\'i ll c " ·ill not be outraged. But on 'rhanksgivin" or Jnly l~ourth the aet \\'ill be vicious and licentious.

In sout hel'll W isconsin the President of the village of Union Grove has pnt th e clamps on Sunday base-ball. Being a man of 78 years of age it is impossib le fo t· him to understa nd how the game of base-ball could br ,111ything less than.iniquitous if played on the Sabbath . There ar e hundreds of peo pl e younger than himself who can see 11{\ irreYe­r cncc in Su nday base-ba ll. Never-th e-le. s they are regardec_~'l1eretics and fa natics a uc1 a rc summa rily punished if t hey fail to abide by the dogmatism of th is patriarch.

A la ll' has just been passed in Ne\\· York ma kin g the shining of shoes ill ega l on Sun<la.,·. A wcstem Un iversity Im . decreed that co­eds must i•ither CO \' cr their knees or be expelled.

'l'he mo,·emcnt is g rowing toward complete suppr ession of such an ent ity as liberty. It :cems impossible to curb this maniacal ma king of Jaws. If it " ·ere t he leaders of so ·ial , intelligent welfare who were responsibl e fo r the making of these laws the situat ion would be ration11l. As it is. th e hardwa1·e merchan t who spends several months of th e year in th e state Assembly and t he balance of his time engaging in his business is t he man who is esta blishing the moral code fo r t he people who 11ncl crstancl infinite ly mo1·e about the sit uation than he. H e apJ ea r s at th e lcgislati,·e sess ion ll'ith some pet-pc('VC which is perha ps noth ing more t han an ha llucina tion. Having su<:ceeclccl in it he fee ls that he ha. contr ibuted· something to the moral welfa r e of the ll'orld. lli : ego is satisfied, · and fro m a political standpoint

· lw has gained a notch. Wh en the next election comes he will · be sent hack as a compensation for h is ac hicnmen t.' Meanwhile the stance of the ind i,·idual has been ,·educed to an a bsu1·d conformity to regula­tions that he neit her respects 1101· recoi,rnizes. ·wh ereupon more politi ­,ca l sate lli tes a1·e appoiu ted to ca 1Ty ou t th e impos itions.

'rh c thi nking indi"idual is the scape-goat. H · has long since learned what he ca n do for his ex pedient goecl. He will conform to what he heli c\'Cs is right. He· has lea rned tha t the best way is the r ight way. But when his p t·ivil cgc o[ thinki ng is taken from him he becomes a law breaker.

"Ch in a for Chinese" sePms to be the reason fo r the fuss in t he Orient. Good. idea to introduce some of that idea here. H istory for Historians, Biology for Biologists. lf we had to f ight for this knowl edl(1' it " ·oulcl be worth somctl1ing to us.

Seems like \\'e arc gett ing a bird's eye \'iCII' of t he wor ld from the faculty in t he assembly se. :ions. Great stuff from that distance. May­be t hey can help us out with some of the problems close r to us0
