acuteness of the situation, makes
ID vital. Our puhlic, parochial
elsmosinary, and particularly oul
State colleges are interested il
such program.
The College and The American
Way of Life
The college is part Of, and one
Of the chief agencies of American
institutions. Without the college,
there could be no real American
ism. Our colleges, constitutes the
work shop, the laboratories, the
experiment stations on life's high
way, where persons are making
ready for life's functions. The
aboriginals of this country, did not
establish a real American way of
living. The American way of life,
Is the patriotic way. Patriotism
is all but a synonym Of the word
America. When one thinks in
terms of America, We think in
terms of patriotism. What race,
group of races, individual or in
dividuals properly make up our
Americanism? The early settlers
Of this country, were the first
Americans, but their lack of ahil-
ity, tact, interest. education, plus
their perculiar instinct, robbed
them Of the glorious opportunities
Of ever becoming genuine Ameri-
cans, hence they established no
American way of life, no colleges
or institutions of learning. hence
no agencies had they to prepare
themselves for a democracy. Our
American colleges, gave the
American Abirginals supreme op-
portunities to build institutions,
which have given us the Ameri-
can way Of life. Ours Is a way of
democracy. A government of the
people for the people, by the peo-
pie. The American way of life
is opposed to the Totalitarian way
Of life. The dictator's way of life
is to force people from without.
The democratic way is to be mo-
tivated from with in, letting con-
science be the guide. There are
those who are watching the out
come, the contributions Of our de-
mocracy, the results of our Ameri-
can way Of life. There are those
who are interested in the type Of
loyalty the minority group will
give to the American cause The
minority group is also thinking
to see what the minority group
thinks Of the American way of
life during this struggle. During
these precarious times, these days
of stress and strain, days when
lynchings and all types Of cruel
treatments are being practiced, the
minority group is also thinking
when will the American way Of life
become way of safety equity,
justice, fairplay for every man,
regardless to race or color?
The American way of life, calls
for full participation in matters
of governmental operations, equal
salaries for all where the prepara-
ton and type of work is similar.

as a court argument yesterday to
holster another CANNES contention
that dogs living in apartments when
the Rent Control Act became ef1ec-
tive can't be evicted now.
Walter p. Armstrong, former pres

Sissy" won the first round. Chan
Gerry Court issued a temporary in
junction against custer by rental
agency.
Armstrong contended privileges in

In lease renewals. The agency's at
torney argued that Congress didn't
have dogs in mind when it passed
the rent bill.

Unanimous Approval
By House Speeds Bill
Toward Final Possoge

Obscured in the shadow OF such
spotlighted legislation as the $50-a-
month soldier pay bill. another
measure of financial importance to
fighting men awaited Senate action
today after winning unanimous
House approval.
Known as THE Soldiers and Sail
ors' Civil Relief Act Amendments Of
1912" it provides for the suspension
of many normal legal proceedings
and the extinction of certain legal
rights in favor Of servicemen while
they are in uniform.
The House approved it yesterday
with but little debate after Repre-
sentative Sparkman, Democrat, of
Alabama, its author and chief ad-
vocate. explained it was designed
to give relief to the boy who is
called into service" and to afford
him a reasonable time" after his
discharge to get on his feet finan-
cially.
The bill provides. among other
things, that it shall be illegal to
charge more than 6 per cent in
terest on any obligation incurred
by man prior to his entrance into
service and unpaid at the time he
enters, regardless of any previous
contract.
1t guarantees the payment Of

their property through failure to
keep up installment payments while
