Telephone 935; Office Hours--3-5 daily, 103 Iowa Ave "I have never had a policy. I have simply tried to do what seemed best each day as each day came." --Lincoln. Night Editors Marian Dyer Beth Wellman HEED THE BELLS Last year The Daily Iowan conducted a campaign against professors who held their classes overtime. The publicity given the offenders has tended to mitigate the evil and their precision on dismissing a class has been more or less commendable. Yet several of the same offenders are endeavoring to offset the loss of the old habit by convening class before the designated hour. To take up a class before the last bell has rung is a more serious offense than to hold a class over time for it involves tardiness of the student who may be counted absent and eventually have to take a course in red tape before being excused. It not only takes unnecessary time of the student but necessitates the busy moments of the administration in providing excuses. The curriculum provides the hour at which classes shall be convened and dismissed. To disregard the rules is a serious error on the part of the professor. If he will take up and dismiss the class at the prescribed hour the student will have no alibi. As it is there is reason for censure. Professors should be just and heed the bells. THEY SHALL Belief that Germany will sign the peace treaty with the Allies continues to grow in Paris despite German objections and subterfuges to sidestep the conditions of the terms. Several notes have passed from the Hun delegation in Paris to the Allied council, but the attitude taken by the Allied leaders is "Sign or quit." Baron Hartmann von Richthofen, a Democratic member of the National Assembly and a secretary of the German embassy in Washington from 1908 to 1911, declares in Boersen Zeitung that Germany must sign the terms under protest. "We cannot avoid signing the terms," is the appeal of Die Frieheit, the party organ of the independent Socialist party. "Not signing," continues Die Freiheit, "means the retention of our prisoners, the occupation of our raw material districts, the tightening of the blockade, unemployment, hunger, and death en masse. . . . . . Peace as hard and as oppressive as it may be, is a necessary assumption for the possibility of rebuilding our social and economic life in the spirit of the revolutionary proletariat." The German who appreciates the Allied position realizes that it is futile to do other than comply. Vigorous measures have already been prepared by the Council of the Four and should the German delegates refuse to sign, the Allies are ready to enforce an immediate economic blockade, which would produce conditions far worse than those within the empire now. Marshall Foch is now at the front and the combined armies of the Allies are ready to advance should the enemy refuse to comply. IOWA FROSH DEFEAT NORTHWESTERN TEAM Belding Is Individual Point Winner With 16 Points in Telegraphic Meet Iowa freshmen won from Northwestern freshmen in their dual meet held last week by the score of 79 1-6 to 55 5-6.
