The Death Knell
"Death to —not from Tuberculosis" has become the watchword of all Americans interested in the preservation of human life and the eradication all contagious diseases.
Tuberculosis is one of the worst enemies of civilized man. No person is safe from it until all are safe.
The-colleges of this country have been taking an active part in the early diagnosis and prevention measures which are the amunition with which the enslaver of human health can be overcome.
Letters From Servicemen
Several letters from Alfred alumni, now in the services, have been re- ceived by the Alumni Office. Exerpts from some of them follow:
Dear Mr. Spicer,
Being a "cadet," I am at no one address longer than two months dur- ing training—after that the periods will probably become shorter.
My next station, or post, will be advanced flying training which should bring those long worked for wings.
I have been receiving the Fiat re- gularly, so I am pretty well posted on the Alfred affairs. It is a particular enjoyment which greatly helps this one in receiving and reading news from Alfred. I believe we all feel that way who had a taste of the "Saxon"
environment, so any more news sent us will be greatly appreciated.

This year, only eleven years since the work was begun, over three hundred institutions have as a regular part of their medical pro- gram, compulsory T.B. skin testing or chest x-ray. During those same years the percentage of positive reaction on any one campus on which regular test- ing is maintained has decreased from 35% to 20.7%. Each year more and more cases of tuberculosis are being discovered at an early stage when the victim can be done the most good and his associates the least harm.

What Kind Of A Post-War World ?
by Prince Hubertus zu Loewensteirr The young men who have to leave school and give up whatever they had planned for their future, have a parti- cular right to ask. what kind of a world the statesmen will mould out of the blood and the tears of all the suffering peoples. Surely, it must be a world which in ethos and practice attempts to realize Divine and human, law as completely as mortals can do
—it must be a world, in whicn peoples and nations, individuals and groups may live according to their historic and personal vocation, a world, in which the sources of new wars and totalitarianism, of mental and econo- mic slavery are being closed; a world finally, which becomes conscious more of the inherent law of huinai..
brotherhood, and in which the teach- ings of Christ don't resound just from the pulpits, but become the guiding:
principles of all national and interna- tional activities.
For hundreds of years mankind, once reawakened to its divine origin has been longing for such a world—•
a mirror and type on earth of the Kingdom to come. Will we achieve it this time? Certainly not in t h e sense, that with the end of the war all problems will be solved and the- course, I want you to remember this i d e a l b e c o m es complete reality. It is Faculty guests were Dr. and Mrs. Id o n > t remember another thing in this

the essence of an ideal, never to find full realization within our human time-space relationship, for only at the- end of time will we attain to the great synthesis of the Two Cities, since St.
Augustin the very goal of all Christ- endom. But. what matters is the Ideal as such, and that men will be found, who in their generation fulfill the task which History has assigned to them.
With this in mind, we may outline a.
number of very practical tenets:
Since this war has Ibeen brought about by universal guilt, by a depar- ture from the rules of Life, a process stretching over many generation and manifested in its utter depravation by modern totalitarianism, only universal
! atonement can he the basis for the I future peace. This means a humbler advises his students to use^delibera- ia l l d c o u t r I t e a t t i t u d e o n t h e »a r t o f

Now we are no longer separate little factions pulling for various candi- dates. We are no longer interested in election politics. We are Alfred backing the leaders whom we have chosen.
The jobs of the new senate and the class officers will be difficult enougli even with the support of the every student on the campus; we cannot let them down.
In order to intelligently participate in the student governing program we should utilize every available means of discovering what is being done and how it is being done. We should attend meetings and hear what the issues before the senate are, we should discuss them at house meetings and express our personal views, individually and through our elected representatives. We should demand to know what action has been taken on every issue, what the

Before I close this column, there is one badly needed criticism to be made.
It is the deplorable condition of the telephone system in Alfred. First of all it is impossible to make a local call when the operator is a nervous wreck over a long distance call from Almond. Secondly, what this coun- try needs is cooperation, but when the operator cooperates in your personal calls that is to much. It is like the wire tapping system in Germany. Of course there is a good point in it be- i cause the operator always knows wluit time the second show begins, and who hasn't got a date and why.

If, when you turn on your radios these days, you hear a distinct rumble, don't be alarmed, because it isn't thun- der. And it isn't static. It's Marconi turning over in his grave.
The radio is a wonderful thing.
Through it we can bring into our very rooms world famous symphony and swing orchestras, operas, the voice ,of people from all corners of the earth, and yet what do we hear when we turn the magic dial? "Rinso white, Rinso white, Happy little washday song" or "Gimme a packa Beeman's Pepsin Chewing Gum, pleez." In nearly every inter-between station we are forced to listen to some simple little ditty, apparently designed to ap- peal to the more moronic percentage of the radio audience. Does the ave rage radio listener have a mental age of 10, so that he cannot understand things told to him in a simple direct way, but must have them sung to him?

"Hundreds of billets," the Naval statement said, await electrical engi- neers now engaged in work not essen- tial to the war effort.
Wartime expansion of the Navy has greatly increased the need for men with ultra-high frequency exper- ience, according to Capt. Kenneth G.

Applications will be accepted from qualified engineers up to 50 years of age with slight physical defects which

Hiking is a favorite sport these, balmy (brr!) spring days. Some claim, however, that said activity is unpatriotic in those days of shoe ra- tioning. In this connection we bow in deepest respect to a certain group of Alfred co-eds who, last week one day, padded home all the way from Almond with arches bare.
