Average u. 5. University
likened 10 Dictatorship
BY the Associated Press,

cy lNe hSSOCldteQ eIeSS.
IOWA CITY, Iowa, Nov. 3O.-J.
Howard Arnold, assistant professor
of chemical engineering at the State
University Of Iowa, aroused wide
spread campus discussion yesterday
with the assertion that "the admin
istration of the average American
university approximates a Fascist
dictatorship"
Prof. Arnold gave his views in an
article he wrote for the Daily Iowan,
university newspaper
DR.. Virgil M. Hancher, president
of the university, said he had no
comment"
The administration of the aver
age American university closely ap-
proximates Fascist dictatorship,
operated ostensibly for the benefit
of the State, but actually for the
advantage of the administration, :"
Prof Arnold wrote. Faculty opin-
ion Classics S. U. I. Estate Univer-
sity of Iowa. as somewhat worse
than average.
THE system is inefficient; copied
from big business in the pre-1929
era, it lacks the vitalizing necessity
of showing suitable profit to the
stockholders at the end of the
year ."
Under the system, Prof, Arnold
asserted, "the primary objective a.
the administrators is the mainte-
nance and extension Of their own
power"

1ovarias Pledges Use
OF U. ). Air Material
To Defend Americas

1t. Gen. Manuel Tovarias Arroyo,
commander In chief of the Chilean
Army Air Forces, yesterday pledged
that all aircraft equipment obtained
from the United States will be used
In expanding his country's air power
and in furtherance Of strong hemi-
sphere defense.
Back from 45-day tour Of Amer
lean war industries and Air Force
installations, Gen. Tovarias told a
War Department press conference
chat his inspection had convinced
him that "the United States is now
N position to cope with any emer-
gency that may arise so far as mill
.ary aviation is concerned"
In addition to the development of
the Chilean air force to size suf-
ficient for economic and territorial
needs, the general predicted an
enormous" expansion OF CONNER
cial aviation between North and
South America after the war. Such
an expansion, he believed, would
aid greatly in bringing the two peo-
Piles together in all activities and
for this reason he was especially
interested, he said, in all facilities
possible being made available to
Chile for the expansion of its own
commercial airlines.
While Chile has not yet enough
aviation to meet its military needs,
he said, the United States has been
very generous" in allocating sup
plies, especially in view of the fact
that it is at war.
Accompanied by his military air
mission, Gen. Tovarias was conduct
ed through % States, into Canada
and sightseeing trip into Mexico
He was impressed by the extent of
our air industrial expansion and the
rapidly growing might of our own
combat air forces.
His first intention, on returning to
Chile, he said, was to incorporate in
his military training program the
methods employed in this country in
training pilots, gunners, bombardiers
and ground crews for combat.
Gen. Tovarias will leave Washing
ton in a few days and will visit
Panama and Brazil en- route home.
He will give reception for the
Chilean Ambassador and American
aviation officials Wednesday night
at the Hotel Statler and the next
day will be entertained in turn by
the Ambassador. Maj. Gen. Clay
ton Bissell, assistant chief of the
Army Air Force for air intelligence,
will be the host Friday night.

Soldier Gets Poetic

The other day we received a
letter from Private Steve Rakonza,
former member of UE Local 754
who is with a Fighter Squadron.
Private Rakonza has written a
poem dedicated to his girl, and
has requested that it be printed
in the Dayton Union News. We
are glad to oblige.
"A Soldiers Ode to His Girl"
AS I sit here and ponder of you
my love,
I a compare you with the stars
in heaven above
Because like them, you shed your
light
On my dreams and memories
Through the long, long night.
But like a storm that comes in the
night,
A war came along and shut off
your light,
It left me alone with a heart sore
and blue;
All the dreams are shattered, I
built around you.
So I sit here with a heart filled
with pain,
And wonder If you and I will ever
meet again.
IL we don't and fate DEGREES it 80,
The light of your smile will 90 on,
Wherever / 60.

BREMERTON AGAIN
SPEWSITS VENOM

Bremerton. Washington, Small
Navy Yard City on Puget Sound,
stepped out into front ranks this
week - with the setting up and
organization of the Bremerton
Branch of the National Asso-
ication for Advancement of Col
ored People.
Certain undue and hitherto un-
known wrinkles in the peaceful
life of the little Navy Yard city
were primarily responsible for the
'set-up" - which lost no time in
getting in shape to attack the
problems. These wrinkles, ii
seems, are the result of the ned
essarily heavy influx of Navy
Yard workers from nearly all
parts of the country = but most
predominantly from the South
including both racial groups. The
Southerners it seems - forget

coordination and cooperation of

brought along fronm the South
land their old prejudices and pet
schemes of discrimination - with
the usual unreasoning hatreds
and jealousies ready to be
turned loose on their brother A
mericans of darker skin.
The first symptoms of this were
discovered in quiet protest
against Negro workers occupying
rooms in the Duration Dormitor-
les out at 18th and Chester SITS.
The protest found sympathy with
the Dormitory management to the
extent that about 81 men in these
