PaSe 2 THE DAILY UTAHCHRONICLE Friday, May 28, 1965 Letters To The Editor Morris Aligns With Nazis Dear Editor: In the "Chronicle" of May 26, you published a letter by Norman Morris, in which he vented his anger, bigotry and prejudice against human beings who do not measure up to his peculiar definition of Caucasian. THE ONLY good feature of his letter is that he does not call himself or the organization hedesires to form American for he is definitely not a part of the great tradition of our United States a country formed by all peoples of the human race and dedicated to freedom and the development ofall its inhabitants. May I invite Mr. Morris to attend synagogue services at any synagogue in the world, including Salt Lake City. His contention that a synagogue will not admit non-Je- is completely and absolutely false.

THERE IS no synagogue whichwill not admit any human being seeking entrance. The gates of prayer are always open to all. It is unfortunate that Mr. Morrishas written "the Jewish faith is open as an objective to vent our thereby aligns himself with the Nazisand Hitler and those who deemed it necessary to demonstrate how man can be a beast towards his fellow man by proclaiming his ideaof Caucasian superiority which resulted in bigotry, prejudice and death to millions. MR.

MORRIS should his thinking and become part of humanity and the human race, not a separate segment trying to be superior to others. He should expend his energies on improving the world for everyone and thereby help himself. Rabbi Stanley T. Relkin Negro Views Dear Editor: In answer to Mr. Johnson: I AM A Negro who has lived in Salt Lake City for several years too long.

Why am I still here? I don't know! The purpose of thisletter is to inform you of an experience I had with the LDS Church. WHEN I was a Boy Scout my troop was located in a local LDS Ward. It was necessary for me to attend (Mutual) weekly meetings in order for me to be a Boy Scout. Making a long story short, I was in the recreationhall one day when the Bishop called me to the side and told me that I could not come to the recreation hall again. The reason being I was a Negro.

WITH THIS experience and many others with the LDS Church, I have formed negative attitudes toward your Church. Subjectively, then, my views of the LDS Church cannot be false. Daily Oliver 'Thus Sayeth Dear Editor In a recent letter Multitulus pointed out the many virtues that can be implanted in society by all the members of that societybeing trustworthy, loyal, helpful, friendly, courteous, kind, obedient, cheerful, thrifty, brave, clean, reverent and especially obedient. The letter was a defense of the LDS Church. I WISH to direct my remarks not to either side of the church controversy but to the obvious in his letter.

"As a rule the fault finder lacks kindness, knowledge, wisdom, goodness andmanliness." Thus sayeth Multitulus. I would like to remind him that accord- ing to the doctrine of his Church, his Church's founder vas critical of what he saw in other churches andhis dissatisfaction led to the establishment of a new sect. THE SECT is the same one to which multitudinous belongs; perhaps multitudinous would like to change sects. It is a matter of his Church's doctrine thatthe government of the United States is God-inspire- d. I always understood that there was a war of protest following years of criticism, and more criticism following the war before the Constitution was established.

I might add that Jesus agreed with the contemporary status quo completely and was crucified because he was such ah uncontroversial character. I DONT blame Multitulus for not having the "manliness" to sign his real name to the letter.I'dbe embarrassed to have it printed too. May we please have more intelligent discussions in the future? S9 David L. McCann CON Around The Corner Finals Again In a little more than a week, students and faculty will ttgain undergo the quarterly ordeal of final examinations. For some students, preparation forfinals will be little more than a leisurely review of material that is already well-learne- and familiar.

For others, it will mean a hasty attempt to re-lea- rn material once read but long since forgotten. And for an unfortunate few finals will mean a frantic weekend of plodding through un- chartered and unknown areas of wisdomwhich somehow must become familiar and usable after a few hours' study. Though not many students would agree, it is probably a bit difficult for instructors to prepare their finals, though not nearly as hard as it is for their students to prepare for them. We suspect that the fairest finals are the most difficult to formulate. It would be easy to select a hundred or any number of true-fals- questions, for instance, from lecture notes, readingassignment, footnotes, etc.

But it would be much more difficult to give each of these questions an honest evaluation to see if it reflected the meat of the course. Essayquestions are even more difficult to formulate fairly. Oftentimes, a very broad question can be answered better by a student with little preparation but a good command of words and style, than by a well-prepar- ed student who is less gifted at writing. This is neither an indictment of the student nor of his instructor, but it should be taken into account in formulating and correcting the test. We also wonder if the final exam isn't given too much weight in the determination of the course grade.

Would equally weighted exams, given every two or three weeks, record a more accurate picture of a student's progress in learning? Somehow, we suspect that students who complain the loudest about unfair exams are those who have prepared themselves the least. Somehow, it seems a little unfair to instructors to take the time to test students on material they should know but don't. But whether or not the students are prepared, and whether or not the tests are fair, the tests will come, the students will take them, and the grades will be issued. We hope this quarterly ritual is worth all the trouble. sp Disruptions From The Left I JL 35' wanton aggression.

Doc (Editor's note: Following is an editorialfrom the "San Francisco Examiner" on May 19. Thearticle was sent in by a former University student, W. A.

Waters, class of 1951.) President Clark Kerr of the University of California was the first to say that Communists were involved in thestudent rebellion that rockedthe Berkeley campus last autumn. DURING THE period of greatest unrest, "The Examiner" published photographs of demonstrators andidentified several as members of the Communist Party. Now it is revealed that FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover told a congressional committee lastMarch that at least 43 individuals with Communist backgrounds played active roles in the explosive developments at Berkeley. DR.

STEFAN POSSONY, of Stanford University's Hoover Institution, told a Senate committee: "The radicalization" of American youth is proceeding beyond the wildest expectations of the Communists." THE EVIDENCE is clear, it should be convincing. The Communists are in our midst. They are active. They are destructive. THISISNOT to say that all who participated in the autumn of unrest at Berkeley were Communists.

Far from it. Mostof the participants were honest, honorable, patriotic young citizens pursuing what they regarded as legitimate aims. The Berkeley technique is one the Communists have long used. They seek out protest issues that have legitimate overtones. Then, through theskillful manipulation of loyal citizens they are able to mack their own divisive andalien purposes.

They let others do their dirty work. IN THE PAST they have either instigated or infiltrated demonstrations against our actions in Korea in Lebanon in Cuba in Laos and more recentlyagainst our actions in Viet Nam and the Dominican Republic. The Communists have involved themselves in petitions and parades against our nuclear tests ouratomc submarines our military appropriations. These activists were strangely silent, however, when the Communist powers gobbled up Estonia, Poland, Albania, China, East Germany, Czechoslovakia North Korea, North Viet Nam, Tibetand Cuba. THERE WERE no peace marchers when Communist tanks and guns crushed the revolt in Hungary by slaughtering tens of thousands of citizens who soughtonly a sliver of the freedom possessed by the most oppressed in our nation.

There were no protests last week when Red China detonated its second "dirty" nuclear bomb in the atmosphere. LET THOSE who tear up their draft cards andthose who preach against our nation's action in Viet Nam and the Dominican Republic take a long and searching look at the tragic pattern of appeasement that preceded World War II: Japan moved into Manchuria and we took no action. MUSSOLINI MOVED into Ethiopia and we took no action. Hitler moved intothe Sudetenland and we took no action. STALINMOVED intoFinland and we took no action.

The world paid a terrible price for appearing this kind of Utonians Arrive The new "Utonians" arrived yesteday, and the "Utonian" staff is understandably elated. We understand thatthis is the earliest the yearbooks have ever been out, and that the industrious staff even beat their own deadline, which was June 1. At first glance, the books look very nice. They're full of beautiful color photography, and the not entirely ial cover is at least a welcome departure from the weary procession of black or white covers of the past several years. The hard work of writing, editing, page makeup, meeting deadlines and advertising is familiar to the "Chronicle" staff too.

But the yearbook is a ones a year affair, and there's not a chance to use daily issues for gradual improvement and critique. We congratulate Kathie Snow and her hard-workin- staff for their work and success with the 1965 "Utonian."
