And So We Have Beer Youth Must Be Served They Shall Not Die In Vain Socialism or Capitalism?
Gold Embargo Lifted
Today is a foaming day in the history of the American people. The return of light wines and beer was celebrated last night just as 01’ Ben struck midnight. Many an American home in the “chosen” states served cold beer, pretzels, cheese, and rye bread. During all the celebration last night, there was a mark of temperance and a degree of moderation. Daily new states are joining the ranks and throwing off the yoke of restraint and are adopting the national enactment on beer. The cry of the Florida Legislature is “Beer by May.” And they may have it, if enough legislative trading and swapping is carried out.
Florida's house of representatives reflects the young Democratic movement throughout the country. An average age of the representatives probably would find them 10 years younger than a Florida house of four years ago. Along with the new deal in national and state politics a tendency has been to introduce new blood. The old-line politicians are yielding, making place for the new. The young Democratic and Republican clubs throughout the country are making felt their voting power. A most striking example of the force of an organized minority of the youth of a country is reflected in the Hitlerites in Germany. Made up mostly of youngsters, com paratively speaking, this despotic force is ruinously ruling the Fatherland. It is the tendency for youth to be liberal; old age is conservative. But it is often that youth when given responsibility becomes conservative. A proof of this is shown by the fact that our own Roosevelt has been called liberal,—or even progressive,—but so far he has been nothing but conservative.
America suffered a great loss this week in the tragedy that took the mistress of the air, the Akron. We can replace the lighter-than-airship but never will we be able to return the gallant men who were swept to death with it. The highest tribute that we can pay to these heroes lost in the cause of aeronautical development is to resolve that the goal toward which they strove shall not be forsaken.
This week the philosophy classes were priviledged to hear Paul Porter, field secretary for* the League for Industrial Democracy. His gospel is “produce for use and not for profit.” He proved a very interesting speaker but like all preachers of socialism he had no regard for opinion other than his own. Governmental changes are not brbught about by seizing power and forcing obedience. Changes are brought about by evolution, not revolution. This government is in a state of change all the time. Nothing is permanent; yet we should not make too hasty generalizations and be too quick to tear down. This country is not ready to adopt socialism; nor ever will It will accept some of its principles, but as a whole, no.

Florida University Sends Approval For Current Year
Credit for Work at University Of Miami is Officially Guaranteed
Notice has been received from the University of Florida that regular residence work of the University of Miami will be fully accredited. Previous to this a committee has come down to make a personal visit and investigation, but this year a written report was considered sufficient.
“This simply repeats for the current year the same approval we have gotten from the University of Florida since we opened,” said Dean Henry S. West, of the Liberal Arts school, in a statement to the Hurricane representative. “We feel that on the basis of our faculty records of experience, the courses we are offering and the manner of conducting all of our academic program that we fully deserve to receive the vote of approval of the state university.”
This announcement is' important to all students, but especially to those taking teacher training work and the teachers of the community, because it again assures them that all work done in this university, either campus or extension courses, will have recognition by the state university. This judgement is also of interest to students who wish to transfer to another college as it means that credits will be accepted without discount. Similarly Miami graduates have the continued assurance of admittance to the graduate departments of other universities and will be accepted as candidates for degrees.

The club has arranged a seven weeks program: the members present papers, the topics for which are selected in their science major. Two of the papers will be read at each meeting, held Tuesday afternoons from two to three o clock.
Members of the committee are working on new membership plans for next year, and a permanent program is being outlined.
C. E. Starr, chemistry instructor, has been accorded faculty membership.
At the meeting to be held April 11, papers will be presented by Robert Weinstein and Jane Ward-low.
Lambdas Give Bridge
The Lambda Phi sorority entertained with an informal bridge-tea in the sorority room Thursday from two to four. Miss Beryl Chapman was in charge assisted by members of the sorority.
Socialism was the subject of a recent address given before the Philosophy class by Paul Porter, a field director of the League for Industrial Democracy.
“I believe,” Mr. Porter said, “that the boom days mark the highest peak that the era of capitalism will reach, and that from now on it will decline by a series of rises and falls as it began until it dies out entirely.” Mr. Porter expressed the belief that Socialism will take its place.
In advocating socialism and pointing out the weaknesses of our present capitalistic system, Mr. Porter said that he admired a Missouri mule because he would stack, yet the American people will never starve in sight of a hay-go hungry in sight of a grocery-store.
Under the Socialistic system everyone would be provided with the necessities of life for a minimum of labor and there would be a great deal of leisure time for man to reflect and advance socially and scientifically.
