TO TAKE PART
IN WAR STRIKE
10 Per Cent of CoIIegianS

NEW YORK. April 1O.-One hun
dred thousand college students, a
vociferous 10 per cent OF American
enrolment, will strike, parade.
hold mass meetings and otherwise
voice their diSapprovsl Of war, for
one demonstrative hour day after
tomorrow, United Press survey
showed today.
The strike. widely advertised by
flaming posters calling upon youth
to make solemn protest against the
black pail Of war that today en-
circles the world, will have the
sanction Of several college presi-
dents. and in many cases will be
turned into a dignifled chapel serv-
ice at which resolutions will de-
nOunce the makers Of war.
No single organization has con-
troll over the days demonstrations,
and there IS no central authority
for the strikes. Among other organ
izations. however. which have lent
sponsorship for individual programs
are the Student League for Indus
trial Democracy. the National Stu
dents League. the Methodist Youth
Group. the League Against War and
Fascism and similar organizations.

Americans" some groups led by foot
ball heroes, urging patriotism, pro-
lection and preparedness as a
means TO end aggression.
Let Youth Blow OFF Steam
Many university heads, preferring
to let youth blow off steam, not only
have sanctioned the demonstrations
but have encouraged them. Charges
that such strikes are the work OF
Communists and "pinks" have been
met by student declarations that
war is a destructive force to all
humanity, and, If youth can find a
way out Of it, so much the better.
Approximately 10000 of the dem
onsrating students are in South
ern and Middle Western colleges
and universities. The East, includ-
ing New York which is regarded as
the center of more radical student
groups, will furnish a greater part
of the remaining 100 1000. Inc
farther West the movement travels,
the weaker 1t becomes.
Oflcials at the University Of Viz
GINA met the strike" by deciding
to sanction the movement, suspend
classes for one hour, and invite the
entire student body Of 1900 to eXer-
else their lungs in chapel.
More than 1850 students at the
Milwaukee State Teachers College
will do likewise. and it will be a
''convocation" instead of a strike. "

NEW MARRIAGE LAW

An opinion issued by the attorney
general holds that under the new gin
marriage law of Montana six days
must elapse from the time OF the pre-
sentation of health certificates and ap-
plication for a license to the clerk of the
district court. before the license can
be issued. The attorney says that we
may surmise that the legislature in
tended a delay Of only three days, but
if that was their intention there are
no words in the statute from which
such intention may be gathered. In
another opinion the attorney general
states that the new law does not repeal
former laws permitting the application
fer marriage licenses by mail.

Fort Benton, Montana, was the cradle of Fort Whoop-Up, Alberta, and
Fort Whoop-Up was the pogenitor of the city of Lethbrdge, Alberta. Mon
tanans, therefore, had a lively interest in the Golden Jubilee which Leth-
bridge staged July %, 20 and a. in which the days OF 1885 were recalled.
Fifteen years before Iethbr1dge was born, Nicholas Sheran went to Fort
Benton. There he made friends with Hamilton and Healy, two traders who
had been carrying on business with the south Alberta Indians at Fort
Whoop-Up, at the junction Of the Belly and ST. Marys rivers, from 1867.
Sheran went north to visit Healy and Hamilton and incidentally to search
for gold in the mountain streams Of southern Alberta
He did not find gold, but he found coal, in 1870, opening up the first coal
mine in Alberta. He hauled it by bull team to Fort Benton, and later to

Government or out will attempt to
consolidate privilege against their fell
lows. New invention and new ideas
require the constant remolding Of our
civilization. The functions of Govern
ment must be readjusted from time to
time to restrain the strong and pro-
tect the weak. That is the preserva-
ton Of liberty itself.
Virtue, Reason and Law
Divisions Of Bill Of Rights.
We ofttimes interpret some provi-
sions of the bill of rights so that they
override others. They indeed jostle
each other in course of changing ma =
tional life-but their respective do
mains can be defined by virtue, by
reason, and by law. And the freedom
Of men is not possible without virtue,
reason and law.
Liberty comes alone and lives alone
where the hard-won rights Of men are
held inalienable, where governments
themselves may not infringe. where
governments are indeed but the
mechanisms to protect and sustain
these principles. 1t was this concept
for which Americas sons have died
on q hundred battlefields.
For 20 years In the service of my
country at home and abroad I have
dealt with the backwash of war and
revolution. I have had poignant duty
to observe the beginning and the
march of forces which lead to the
overthrow of liberty in many lands.
I have known the men who fought
bravely to save humanity from these
catastrophies. I have one conclusion
from it all.
Liberty never dies from direct at
tack. No one will dare rise tomorrow
and say he is opposed to the bill of
rights. Liberty dies from the en-
croachment and disregard of its safe
guards. Its destruction can be no less
potent from ignorance or desire to find
shortcuts to jump over some imme-
diate pressure. In our country, abdi-
cation of its responsibilities and pow
ers by Congress to the executive, the
reputation by the Government OF its
obligations, the Capitalization of au-
thority into the Federal Government
at the expense of local government,
the building up of huge bureaucracies,
the coercion or intimidation of citi-
Zens, are the same sort Of first sap
ping OF safeguards of human rights
that have taken place in other lands.

tralization of governmental powers

In the first 10 amendments to the

the principles Of freedom which the

Here is the cause of anxiety and con-
Germ to the thinking citizens Of the
United States.
George Washington, in his farewell
address, warned:
"One method of assault may be to
effect, In the form of the Constitution,
alterations which may impair the en-
ergy of the system and thus to under
mine that which cannot be directly
overthrown."
Yet every form Of constructive prog
ress can be developed within the spirit
and safeguards Of the bill of rights.
That is the only foundation upon
which progress may be permanent. All
other foundations are the sands of
disaster.
The Nation seeks for solution OF
many difficulties. These solutions can
come alone through the constructive
forces which arise from the spirit of
free men and women. The purifica-
ton of liberty from abuses, the res
toration of confidence in the rights
of men, from which come the release
Of the dynamic forces of initiative
and enterprise, are alone the methods
through which these solutions can be
found and the purpose Of American
life assured.
