Van Dyne.

Editor the Missourian: In the de-
parture of Van Dyne. the Tigers lost
one of their best football players and
a man of whom much was expected
this season.
Although he left at time when his
services to the team were most needed,
we cannot help admiring his splendid
spirit. He was confronted with two
duties. One demanded that he give
his best to the football team. The
other called for loyalty to his pa
rents in this time of their need. The
two duties were inconsistent.
Turning his back on his duty to
the team and ignoring the honor and
popularity, which are the rewards of
a successful football player. he an
swered the call to the greater duty.
This shows the true nature of the
man.-G. S.

R. B. PRICE IS STRONG

Columbian, Student in Fif-

HE'S A LIFE MEMBER
Thinks Idea Will Attract
Alumni-Sees No Com
petition With "Y."

RIB. Price, ST., an old friend Of the
University, is enthusiastic in his
praise of the new Missouri Union plan.
He believes in it so thoroughly that
he has recently taken out a life mem
bership.
Il am heartily in favor of the Union
because believe it will make a bigger
and broader University" says Mr..
Price. "Of course. back in the fifties,
when l was a student in the Univer-
sity we had no need for such an Or
ganization, for there were only 120
students and s professors. We all
knew each other then, but since the
growth of the University some such
plan as that of the Missouri Union
is a necessity"
THE Union will get the alumni into
closer touch with their alma mater.
Graduates who have lost interest in
titt SCnOOl Will COluc DdCh W SOiuIilUld
to visit the scenes of their college
days, because they know they have
home here and will find a hearty
welcome. With renewed interest, the
alumni will boost for old Mizzou' as
never before. Graduates from high
schools all over the country will be
attracted to the University because of
the Democratic spirit which the Union
will institute"
When asked if he thought the Union
would in any way conflict with the
YM.C.A, Mr.. Price said that he did
not believe it would. THE Y.M.C.A.
and the Union have different fields.
Both are necessary. and there will be
no rivalry" he says.
Because of the greater sOciability
and democracy that will result from
the new plan, l think it is good
movement. Other large universities
have accomplished a great deal by
some such plan, and am glad to see
the University of Missouri take such
a progressive STEP"

bition question is again to be decided
for good or bad. It is hoped that an
amendment assuring statewide pro-
hibition will be added to the constitu-
ton. Now comes the work Of the
mems organization. It has pledged
itself to spread the cause and exercise
the influence which it possesses in
the right way. Prohibitive measures
in Columbia in the past have come
with the aid Of such voters. There is
little question about the vote here.
Yet the work of the Third Amendment
Association IL an example Of concen-
trated effort to make the public de-
cision the right one.
From now until the deciding day,
the association will lose no chance to
throw its influence q little farther.
Such an association working in all
the cities and towns of Missouri would
have no difficulty in deciding the vote
Of the whole state in favor Of the
amendment so much desired by those
who have the welfare of the people at
heart.

THOMAS H. BENTON

A recent campaign statement by
former Governor Herbert s. Hadley
brings to mind the life and character
OF one of Missouri's greatest states
men. Thomas H Benton.
Leaving college in North Carolina,
he came to this state soon after the
war Of 1872, during which he had
served in the army and had been
mixed in a fight with Andrew Jack
son, afterward one of his closest po-
iitical and personal friends. Previous
Iy, in the Tennessee legislature, he
had forced through bill giving the
slaves the same right of trial by jury
as a white man.
As editor of the Missouri Enquirer,
Benton fought for Missouri's admission
into the Union and in 1920 was re-
warded by being the first senator
chosen from the new state. During
his thirty years Of service in the
Senate he obtained much favorable
legislation for the western country
and aided greatly in those years of
development.
In the Mexican crisis of 1S47, by
reason of his position in Congress and
his knowledge of the southern coun
try. Benton became the closest ad-
wiser of President Polk and changed
the administration policy Of master
Iy inactivity" to one Of vigorous prose-
cution of war. His Spanish, learned
while a young lawyer in St. Louis,
helped him here, as at other times.
His opposition to the Wilmot Pro-
viso. the state rights bill of Calhoun.
led to his defeat in the Missouri Legis-
lature of 1S4s, although his brilliant
campaign had seemingly assured his
reelection. Later he was elected to
the House, but retired when his
branch of the Democratic party lost
power.
In 1856 Benton made his last effort,
a vigorous campaign as an indepen-
dent candidate for governor, an Office
through which he hoped to regain his
seat in the Senate. He was defeated,
however. and two years later, after
completing his History of the Work
ing of the American Government from
1920 to 1850" he died in Washington.
Fully 10000 persons attended the
funeral services in St. Louis.
Benton studied questions of govern
ment assiduously and was an authori-
ty on financial and industrial con-
ditions In this country. A command
ing intelligence and a liberal culture
made him a leader Of men; immense
activity. with this vigorous leadership,
made him more than a mere legisla-
tor-a far-seeing statesman and
great man.

WORKING FOR PROHIBITION

Following the lead of the larger
cities of the state, Columbia now has
an association organized to promot,
the Third Amendment. This body Of
workers, in cooperation with the
W. C. T. u, is doing all in its power
for the cause of statewide prohibition
for Missouri. True, this band of fifty
leading citizens can work only as a
local body, but If all cities and towns
would follow the lead of Columbia and
its association prohibition would be
coming at a faster pace than has been
thought.
Attempts at prohibition in former
years have shown that definite plan
OF procedure must be used in order to
down the whisky interests. 1t takes
organization to do this. The W. C. T.
u. has worked continuously to do
away with the evil. It has made its
presence effective in many states, but
Missouri has been among the list of
those states which have held out
against all efforts. The women's Or
ganization has been handicapped be-
cause of the lack of suffrage. None

He arose at 5.45, took an hour to dress,
and left the Astor Hotel with Carl d.

The Governor walked three blocks

II was so early that the Governor
