GIVE CULTURE
PROPER USES,
SAYS WRIGHT
Manitoba Professor Ad-
dresses Student Body Of
State University. AZ.

Modern inventions, discoveries. all
phases of modern culture should be
employed for the development of So
ciety and not for material comfort,
DR.. Henry w. Wright of the Univer-
sity Of Manitoba said today in add
dressing the faculty and student body
of the state university
DR.. Wright appeared at the school
in the annual interchange lecture
ships between the North Dakota and
Manitoba institutions. He was to
speak also at a meeting Of the depart
ment of philosophy this afternoon at
4 o'clock.
Man from the beginning had an
interest beyond his state, an interest
in advancement, DR.. Wright said. The
two greatest instruments in h for
ward movement of society in earlier
times were political authority and
accumulation Of private property.
These factors went together in the
forming of privileged classes.
A desire from the ruling classes
among the people for freedom sprung
up, however, and democracies were
man would be permanently relieved
from trouble through freedom was
not fulfilled. Troubles remained.
Important in the development Of
society today are the. social n po-
litical changes brought about by new
facilities of communication, ~transpor.
tation, etc. The development is such
that the people r estranged from
one another and from interest in the
whole. this because of the machinery
of. organization. The problem today
is not so much to help your neighbor
as to find him and become acquainted
with him. r.
The inventions and discoveries Of
the day lave given man unprecedent-
ed power over the life of the world.
The question is what is to be done
with this power. Is it to- be applied
for material comfort and advantage
ture in which all people may partici-
pate? The hope of humanity lies in
it's being applied for the development
of social culture. ~
In meeting this question the study
of human history becomes important
and urgent so that the vision of the
individual may become widened. The
present political and industrial sys-
TENS of the day must be modified if
social culture is to be given its place.
| Culture Is necessary for all persons
Zach mar must possess a knowledge
of the social and economic system,
must know the industry he serves, its
processes, its Importance. !.
The uses Of modern inventions and
discoveries must be placed under in
t%elligible direction and not on a COM
mercial basis in order that the best
may be brought before the people and
to bring the facts Of universal human
experience.

CUTTING ARMY
Gives Approval to Portion of
Bill Providing For Reduc-
ing Forces.

Washington, March 23.-The house
gave its approval yesterday to a pro-
vision of the army appropriation bill
which would require the reduction by
July of the regular army enlisted
strength to $4,000 men and then pro-
coed to enter. upon a prolonged dis
cussion of whether congress should
direct the return to United States of
certain troops stationed in China, Ha-
wall, the Panama canal zon and the
Rhine. Secretary Weeks has already
ordered the withdrawal of the troops
from the Rhine.
The bin provides that before the
beginning of the coming fiscal year
approximately $500 troops stationed
in Hawaii, 1000 men on duty in the
Canal zone and the entire force Of
500 garrisoned in China as wall as
all but 500 men and officers in the
army of occupation in Germany must
be brought back to continental
United States.
Representative Crqgo, Republican,
Pennsylvania, raised a point Of order
against the provision on the grounds
that congress was attempting to
usurp the power of the president to
direct troop movements. The point
OF order. however, was overruled by
ASVpAC SOAAIoSAVO LSll5" ASCpAOAA-
can, Ohio, presiding, who declared
that while he did SO with personal
regret" he believed congress in APP
propriating for maintenance of troops,
could properly place such limitations
on the president and war depart
nent.
!. A motion to eliminate the provision
from the bill was then made by Rep
resentative Rogers, Republican, Mas
sachusetts, but the house adjourned
before a vote was taken. The bill
will be taken up again Friday.
After extended discussion, the
house, by decisive majorities. reject
ed amendments which would have
fixed the maximum enlisted strength
at levels other than the 1850 re-
which framed the bill. Chairman
Kahn, of the military affairs commit.
tee. proposed that vpay be provided
for $4,000 men. exclusive Of 1000
Philippine scouts, Representative Sis
son, Mississippi, Democratic member
Of the subcommittee, in. charge Of
the bill offered an amendment tore
duce the maximum to 10000 while
, Representative Quinn, Democrat. Mis-,
sissippi, urged that = the number o.
enlisted men be slashed to $4,000.
Another amendment rejected by
the house was offered by Represents
tive Knutson, Republican. Minnesota
and would have given men stationed
outside continental United States tn
privilege Of demanding : their dis
charge from the military service whil'
the size of the army was being re
duced.. AS the bill stands, only thos'
on duty in this country would b.
eligible for discharge on application

has nothing Of the aesthetic shock
which the first cubists and futuristS
gave a generation accustomed only
to the tender extravaganceS of q
Monet or a Pissaro. The disturbing
effect of modern German painting is
entirely psychological.
The Transitional Stage.
The German painters are still feel
ing their way through the period OF
trouble. uncertainty and despair that
characterizes every phase of German
life and thought to-day. They are
struggling to free themselves from
the domination of the French mod
erns and are seeking out new art
forms and a new technique. This
era of experimentation. which is in
reality a new epoch Of Sturnt und
Drang. has as yet produced few re-
suits which have more than an
historical interest With the excep-
ton of an occasional drawing Of
Feininger, a canvas of Stegemann or
Hartmann-such as the latter's
Fruehling. now exhibited at the Ber-
liner Kunstaussteilung = German
painting is still in a transitional
stage. 49,
The explosive dynamism OF the
November group reminds one of the
putting of derailed locomotive. the
whirling of a power wheel from
which the belt has slipped. a ships
screw turning out. Of water
tremendous energy which has not
yet found it's channel. There Is not
one point of repose in the chaotic
canyases of GoetZ, Segal or Moller:
broken rhythms. shattered lines and
planes. anecdotal and abstract images
mingled pell-mell. tortured. confused.
contorted. The eye Of the observer
is thrown off the picture like a
tangent from a whirling circle. ''i
In their effort to escape from the
influence of French rationaiiSm in
painting, German artists are every

the old Germanic romanticism. Some
artists prefer the poisonous-pretty

like mad Boecklins: the majority.
however. have gone back to more
primitive forms of romanticism. An
almost sadistic exaggeration of the
fantastic, grotesque and horrible In
subject and technique has lined the
walls of the Berlin expositions with
a succession of Danses Macabres
