Eugene Cecil Van Wyck Will
Speak Today at 4 p.m. In
Memorial Hall
Emphasizing the fact that the
United States has much of value to
learn from the practices of modern
Sweden. Dr. Amandus Johnson
president of the Swedish American
Historical Museum, mode an address before the students and faculty of the University in
.,.,..
cation held yesterday at 10 a. m. In
mciuuruti nan.
Eugene Cecil Van Wyck will
speak at 4 p. m. today In Memorial hall on "Traveling Through
Sweden." All students and faculty members are cordially invited to attend.
Doctor Johnson commenced with
a short sketch of the history of
Sweden, citing especially that all
changes of government had been
made without revolutions that Involve bloodshed of any kind.
He also stated that the law of
Sweden is compiled into a single
volume In compact statements of
the nation. A unique feature of
the educational system Is that religion is instructed in all the
schools; hence, there is an uncon-Rclofollowing of such precepts
Through the linkage of law with
religion, there are, as a consequence, manv more
citizens In Sweden than In ocr
own country.
The irrelevancy of
many laws In the United States
was given as one of the muwa r.t
law disorders here.
Sweden is notable In her ,Hnra.
tional system and thus has a great
acai to orrer to other nations of the
world. She has gained much by
her association with our country,
but we, in turn, should seek out
her achievements.
The most Ideal type of education
is that of the masses, which is
practiced In Sweden. Common laborers are known to buy the best
books as well as newspapers.
Through this mass education some
of the most vital problems of the
world have been settled by Sweden
when controversies were still being
continud in many other nations.
Doctor Johnson was brought to

HERE SHALL THE KERNEL ALL
STUDENT RIGHTS MAINTAIN
MEET THE NEED
There arc two facilities, considered by most
authorities, .is necessary and vital factors in the
social and recreational life of every progressive
university, which are lacking upon our campus.
Tliey arc obviously an adequate ball room and
a swimming kk! of some kind. This belief has
consistently lccn expressed by The Kernel and
is concurred in by an overwhelming majority
of the student lxnly.

In planning the Student Union building,
which was originally considered with the idea of
meeting social and recreational needs of the
student body, the latter need has been definitely left out because it was believed that the funds
provided would prove inadequate for its inclusion. It was presumed that by eliminating the
swimming pool, more money could be applied
to the ball room and thus better facilities would

direct evidence did not check, and were excluded from the trial.
The Kernel docs not take the attitude of criticizing the courts for the sake of criticism alone.
Our laws must be upheld, and the dastardly
crime of kidnaping and murder must be cntled.
It is a regrettable fact to find our courts so manipulated by politics, however, that their decisions raise questions in the minds of the citizens.

The Lindbergh case is not closed. Roth Wilcntz and Hoffman will continue their political
journey, keeping the case open. Mr. Hoffman
is to be commended for certain aspects of his
participation in the case. In granting reprieves
to the condemned man, he allowed the defendant a chance to produce evidence which might
have saved his life.
The Kernel believes in the integrity of our
courts. The hope is strong that justice shall continue in the land of freedom, and that human
lives will not be the pawn of political players.
Justice must triumph.

However, as plans near completion, it appears that the idea of providing an adequate
