Approval of these plans was never in any doubt, but the discussion of them gave scope for oratory. President William Green of the A. F. of L. elaborately denounced C. I. O. for splitting Labor's ranks...
...Passed a joint resolution introduced by Nebraska's Norris appropriating $150,000 for investigation by the Federal Trade Commission of propaganda circulated by private utilities against public ownership, after adopting an amendment offered by Utah's King broadening its scope to include an investigation of propaganda used by Government agencies against private ownership. Sent it to the House...
...physics. As the two are well defined, might it not be possible to separate them into two one-year courses? They would both take at least 8 hours a week of laboratory work and would preferably not be taken simultaneously. The chemical course would be of slightly broader scope than the present Chemistry 4, having one or two group experiments involving mass spectra and spectroscopy, and the lecture material might cover more advanced methods of analysis than laboratory facilities allowed in practical work...
Another alternative has been suggested since it is often objected that Physics C is overly elementary. Were this course limited in scope and approached from the standpoint of the application of calculus to simple physical phenomena, this difficulty would be remedied. This alternation would take advantage of the long neglected Mathmatics A prerequisite for Physics C, and would give students an easy introduction to the mechanism of mathematics as an implement in problems in the physical sciences. From that point undergraduates would be fitted to be carried on with less professorial guidance...
...inherent difficulty of the field precludes the possibility of drifting through. Concentrators feel. however, that the interest and enjoyment derived from a study of ancient Greek and Latin is ample compensation for this. Although the number of faculty men is large in proportion to the number of concentrators, the scope of the field demands a great many courses, and any reduction of the faculty would necessitate the omission of several valuable courses...
