"Business Is Fine" at the Book Store But Many Unclaimed Volumes Remain

Administrators D e n y Trots and Interlinears

Sought

"Business is fine," dec la red the R e v . W i l l i a m C . Meehan , O . P . head of the C o l l e g e B o o k Store, w h e n approached by a C o w l correspondent B u t the ob­ject of the i n t e r w i v e was not so m u c h to probe the success of the Store ' the deple ted pocketbooks of droves of students bear adequate wi tness to that) as it was to uncove r some of the deep, d a r k secrets of the yea r ly d i spens ing of hundreds of books to students.

It was d i sappo in t ing to l ea rn how un roman t i c are these secrets. In hope­less ly efficient fashion, it seems, the Store places its orders, takes i n the books f r o m the express company, and hands them out again to students—for a pr ice, of course.

Y e t the adminis t ra tors of the Store do have the i r problems Occas iona l l y they get caught short b y a sudden change of texts, a n d find themselves

w i t h books on hand for w h i c h there is no ready marke t . A few of these g l i s ten ing vo lumes are l angu i sh ing on the store's shelves. It was men t ioned d u r i n g the i n t e r v i e w that these books w o u l d m a k e a fine add i t ion to a s tu­dent 's l i b r a r y . ( H i n t )

T h e n there is the l i t t l e mat ter of a s m a l l moun ta in of d r a w i n g equip­ment, of w h i c h those i n charge of the store are desirous of d isposing. T h e o f f heard report that F r e s h m e n are i n the habi t of a s k i n g for in te r l inears and "trots ' ' is e m p h a t i c a l l y den ied at the book store.

One b l ack c loud on the serene hor­izon of a book-store keeper 's l i f e is the student w h o orders books and neglects to c a l l for them. The deposit sys tem tends to put a damper on this i n d i v i d u a l , but even this does not en t i r e ly curb h i m .

M r . James E . M a c D o n a l d , F a t h e r Meehan ' s assistant, asked it be made clear that i n the future, the store w i l l be open between classes on ly . I m p e r i ­ous knocks at other t imes w i l l be s tudiously ignored.

W h i l e the has ty ac t ion of the president and the senate has forestal led any effective protest agains t the sea t ing of Supreme C o u r t Jus t ice B lack , it i s not too late for a t ho rough examina t ion of the c i rcumstances of his ap­pointment and conf i rmat ion. Indeed, we mus t determine exac t ly where the fau l t lay before we can in te l l igent ly direct our efforts to pre­vent fu r ther such occurrences.

Thus , when M r . Roosevelt completely i g ­nores the questions of the elements he has an­tagonized, we cannot but en te r ta in doubts of his s incer i ty . It would almost seem that he is willing- to sacrifice the d i g n i t y and pres t ige of the nat ion 's highest t r i b u n a l mere ly to assure its assent to his p rogram. M a n y of the Sen­ators have pub l i c ly s tated that they voted to confirm B l a c k only because they had no t an ­gible evidence to substant ia te the accusat ion agains t h i m . W e must conclude e i ther that the president pushed the senate act ion despite a knowledge of B lack ' s K l a n af f i l ia t ion or tha t he d id not regard the suspic ion of i t , no ma t t e r how loudly voiced, as sufficient grounds to war ran t a probe. In any case he can not be too s t rong ly condemned.

B l a c k h imse l f was unjust to the president and the senate, for he took unfa i r advantage of t h e i r lack of in fo rmat ion . H e mus t have k n o w n that i f the t r u t h were made public he would never be confirmed. Then , in an ad­dress wi thou t para l le l i n the h i s to ry of A m e r i ­can ju r i sprudence , he said in one breath tha t he " d i d j o i n the K l a n , " and in the next that he had never " ind ica ted departure f rom m y steadfast f a i t h in the unfet tered r i g h t of ev­ery A m e r i c a n to fol low his conscience in mat­ters of r e l i g ion . " W e find i t ha rd to reconcile the two statements.

I f he cannot be unseated on technica l grounds, our only hope lies i n a con t inua t ion of the tendencies he followed i n the senate, where his conduct was l ibera l , progress ive , and unmarked by any instance of rac ia l o r re­l ig ious prejudice.

N e v e r were O l i v e r Go ldsmi th ' s famous lines, " w h i l e words of learned length and T H U N D E R I N G S O U N D amazed the gaz ing rust ics ranged a round , " even more s t r i k i n g l y applicable than on last T h u r s d a y at the pep r a l ly when for the f i rs t t ime an aroused s tu­dent body cheered and sang behind the con­certed efforts of the student cheer corps and the band

T h e d i sp lay of en thus iasm surpassed even our most fondest dreams. Its s incer i ty was beyond denial , i ts sp i r i t such as to foster new hopes i n the breasts of a l l , i ts voice a thunderous ovat ion of thanks and pr ide to and for the gal lant t eam. Its fe rvor once caught must have inspi red every footbal l p layer .

Gone was the old apathy, gone the old order of th ings . Out of i ts ashes arose a new pa t r io t i sm, a t rue re juvenat ion . T h i s new l i fe , i f continued, w i l l raise Providence College to new heights a th le t ica l ly . Too long sadly-l ack ing , let us hope i t is here to s tay.

s t i r r i n g his pot i n Europe . A s yet, i ts scath­i n g contents have not poured out in the i r ful l hor ror , a l though some has spil led over in to Spa in and the Or i en t w i t h devastat ing resul ts . W h i l e the w a r clouds have been ga ther ing , the U n i t e d States has been put t ing on an os t r ich act. W e have been h i d i n g our heads in the sand, or, more accura te ly , in the oceans, t r y i n g to convince ourselves that by c los ing our eyes to the proceedings we were isolat ing ourselves. B u t the wor ld is smal ler today than i t was a hundred years ago—smaller , indeed, t han i t was t h i r t y years ago. To those not a f r a id to cal l a spade by i ts accepted name, it is patent that for a na t ion w i t h as fa r flung commerc ia l interests as those of the Uni ted States , isola­t ion is impossible .

Recen t ly , however, s t a r t ing w i t h the Pres ident ' s now famous Chicago speech c a l l i n g for an in t e rna t iona l quarant ine of w a r l i k e nat ions and con t inu ing wi th Secre ta ry of S ta te H u l l ' s condemnat ion of Japan, and then the decision to take par t in a nine power con­ference, our d ip lomat ic policy has taken a rea l ­is t ic t u rn . A p p a r e n t l y , the adminis t ra t ion has reached the conclusion tha t it is t ime to aban­don the assumpt ion that the waters of the P a ­cific and A t l a n t i c are broad enough to remove us f r o m the zone of influence of conflicts on o ther cont inents .

T h e Pres ident bases his new pol icy on sound reasoning. A m e r i c a , he reasons, hates war , and earnes t ly desires peace. B u t , he con­t inues, the nat ion w h i c h desires peace has a n obl iga t ion to s t r ive ac t ively to ma in ta in peace. H e is r i g h t . S t r i v i n g for peace seems to us a fundamental du ty of any C h r i s t i a n nat ion.

S t . T h o m a s defined specific condit ions under w h i c h w a r is to be adjudged " jus t . " B u t , a p p l y i n g these principles to present and recent wars , i t seems impossible to t e rm any of t hem jus t . W o m e n and ch i ld ren ; the aged and the incapaci ta ted , cu l tu ra l and archi tec t ­ura l t reasures—al l these are as much a target of the cannons of war as the "flower of y o u t h " we so often m o u r n .

W i t h w a r be ing waged on such a basis , peace is yet more desirable than in fo rmer t imes. I t is g r a t i f y i n g , therefore, to see the U n i t e d States once more t h rowing i ts great i n ­fluence behind the move for peace. M r . Roose­velt and Sec re t a ry H u l l are both men of b r i l ­l iant a b i l i t y . W i t h the tremendous power of th is coun t ry behind them, and we assume tha t they w i l l have th i s support in so fine an en­deavor, they should be able to do much for wor ld peace.
