RECOGNISES ITS Fi4Lt/£ "HON/ SOIT" TO HAVE ITS OWN OFFICES A t a of the Students' Representative Council last week it MM decided to continuo publication of "Honi Soil" as a weekly news- paper, in spite of a present financial lass. Members of the council agreed that the journal had established itself as an integral part of the student life of Sydney University, and was fulfilling a definite purpose. In view of these facts, the council has decided to back the venture financially until it can be proved to advertisers that a display in the columns of "Honi Seif is a business preposition. Fully-equipped offices will be provided for the journal in the S.R.C. ! In l(* short existence. "Ilonl Knit" has itruvi'n to an extent nut fwcwep by ltd founders. Its purpose has be- come f«r more serious. Published under the aegis «f «he K,R.t'. since the beidnning of I^ent Term this year. It haw been more or less on probation with the new student organisation. By Ms action lust week the council has ahoun that It Is convinced of the ne- cessity fw the publication of an official Journal. It la the aim of the editorial com- mittee to keep before its readers all developments affecting the student body a s a whole. Each week all news Items of general Interest will be chron- . Icled. A complete reorganisation of the literary staff I* a t present being ef- fected. on the lines of a metropolitan ; dally, and when this has been com- pleted. readers will be assured of a i news service which covet.« every phase of University activity. | "Honi Kelt" Is also the iiied**ini for i the expression of student opinion. All students should look upon its columns as being open to them. The Journal cannot achieve anything without the support of every member of the stu- dent body. Everyone reads it. Why cannot everyone write for It? Students may regard "Honi Suit ' a s their calendar. It publishes every week not only u very complete Ust of coming events, hut also Important . I'nlverslty announcements. In addi- tion. it is kept posted with the latest information from the Appointments Hoard, through the courtesy of the Student Adviser. Brlgadler-Oeneral Maekay.

Salmon, a graduate of Sydney I'nlverslty. has been appointed I'rofessor in charge of the Department •f l.atin at McMaster I'niversity In 'anada. Mr. Salmon took his B.A. degree at Sydney University In 1S23 w i t h first- class honours, and the I'nlverslty Medal both in classics and in English. He then proceeded as Woolley Tra- velling Scholar to Emmanuel College, t'ambrldge, where, in 1927. he obtained a first-class in the classical tripos, part II. Elected to the Emmanuel Re- search Studentship, he went to the British School at Home, where h e w a s ngaged for two years In historical research. After returning from Rome to Cambridge, he was appointed Act- ing Professor of Classics at Acadia I'nlverslty, Nova Scotia, for the year 182S-1M0. Though he has Mt been able to complete the publication of the researches carried out by him In Italy. Mr. Salmon has contributed a number of important papers to the "Journal of Roman Studies" and the "Classical Quarterly." S.R.C. MEETING LARGE CREDIT BALANCE " A meeting of the S.R.C. was held In the Committee Room, the t'nlon. on Wednesday. June l«. After a prelim- inary warning by the president. Dr. Itaylilon. that in future those who came In not having on their wedding garments would he cast forth again. Ki porta were received from sub- committees appointed to Inquire Into matters connected with "Hermes" and "Honi Soil." It was decided that "Hermes should be Issued one week before the conclusion of the present term, in the present form, save for a few minor alterations. "Honi Bolt" Is also to be carried on in the present form until the end of the year. I t w a s agreed that the work done by the Council's own newspaper during Com- metn. week hud lieen Invaluable. A committee, consisting of Messrs. A. G. Smith. II. \l. Storey, and A. L. Cohen was appointed to act In the matter of the llyman Memorial Fund. It was resolved to send a letter of condolence to l>r. Huxley upon the death of Ills brother. The Hon. Treasurer reported a large credit balance, the exact dimensions of which are not certain at the pre- sent moment owing to the fact that many payments ami Uohllttles are still outstanding. Mr. tl. Smart was appointed Assist- ant Hon. Business Manager of S.R.C. publications. Some discussion took place with re- gard to the iHtssihllity of securing rooms, for the S.R.C. other than those at present in use lb the Sports I'nlon office. It was decided to carry on with the present rooms and to make pro- vision therein for the staff of "Honi Soli." This Is a much-needed re- form. as the staff has at present no place to write or edit "copy." Aovc Act 4, AtcWUUi\tL AuAUmtflUfcii + tHttu* uv WINE IV. "HCRMES" In one of his engaging diatribes. II. I.. Mencken sports with the thesis that democracy is a form of government intended to deify the congenital stupidity of the masses of mankind. Humanity being composed chiefly of half-wits, the divine leavening of de- mocracy gives to the normal half-wit both the power of selecting governors, nd relief from the mental effort of governing by the comfortable process of delegation. Menc ken uses hyperbole >urt emphasis, but it is plain that contention holds more than half the truth, a s a little observation serves to demonstrate. Most citizens a r e a s iiicaimble of assuming an intelligent part in the government of a state a s a milch cow. and lack that quadruped's amicable contentedness. Yet democ- racy credits all citizens with the re- lulsite skill and spares them the acid test conveniently by asking of them selertion alone. Its justification Is the hypothetical natural genius of man- kind to select wise governors, and It presents the futility of the masses as springing, not from congenital Incom- petence. but from an inspired economy of effort. Whatever one may think of democ- racy. its is clearly the political fashion of the age. and has many decades of life ahead of it. Intermittently critics like Mencken flay its fallacies unmer- cifully. but they are voices crying in paradise, inaudible in the wilderness. since human beings display an In- veterate habit of muddling through most of the problems of life, there Is no great demand for ear-trumpets. Moreover a sense of humour preserves most enlightened people from the worst horrors of the demos. Still, the Zeitgeist is the most puis- sant of all transforming processes; and opinions and modes of thought held universally are apt to mould, con- sciously or subconsciously, practically every manifestation of contemporan- eous Ideation. One would imagine, for example, that a University would be less susceptible to the determinations of mediocrity than most Institutions. Being composed of people who must attain a certain degree of mental effl clency before they can assume the status »f undergraduate, who are taught by others holding high intellec tual qualifications, and spend their days in developing their know-ledge and intelligence, one might be par the fallacies of democratic governrnen would have scant embodiment. Vet in the University of Sydney such is obviously not the case. Assuming that delegation of activity, as virtual delegation of opinion, la the principal characteristic of democracy, we And amongst ourselves ready evl dence of contamination. What hap pens when we have an apt occasion for expression, such as the publication of "Hermes"? We start with tlK ac curate assumption that literary ex presslon is racy of undergraduate soil. I'.abit then prompts ua to look about for some representative organisation, and in this year of grace ltU w e a r e overjoyed to discover a perfect spec I men in the highly constituted S.R.C We hand over to them the control of our own vehicle of expression. They gravely accept the responsibility as tlielr indigenous duty. They appoint an Editor, and a staff consisting of delegates from each of the lesser bodies of delegates, and we await In sublime fatuity a propitious expres sion of undergraduate experience. The fact is, of course, that with venture like "Hermes" democratic or- ganisation is a sheer illusion. The undergraduate body delegates certain individuals to control the journal. In- dividually some of them might by accident possess interest and skill in such things, but collectively they ob viously cannot make it a child of their brain. Acting as delegates, they ap- point an Editor. That Is a perfectly justifiable exercise of their delegated power. But then they present him with a staff, consisting of a further twitch of delegates. Apart from the liersonallty of the Editor, the whole venture becomes a perfect systole and diastole of delegation, with the Indi- vidual undergraduate, who writes the units which eventually compose either a meritorious edition or a bedraggled one, thrown hopelessly out of touch with the personality of the journal, and facing nothing more Inspiring than the Editor's Box. A literary tra- dition liecomes ho|»eless. Instead of lieing provoked by a literary fellow- ship, it degenerates Into a process whereby Individuals write if they hap- pen to think of it. put their lucubra- tions into the Editor's Box. from whirh they are taken and perused by an Editor and a wrongly devised set of assistants, and published if they be considered not too jejune. These things would not happen if we refused to carry delegation to Its logical conclusion, the surrender of S.R.C. PRESIDENT Narrow Escape from Injury Or. F. W. •ayldon, president of the Students' Representative Council, had a narrow escape from serious injury late on Sunday night when a motor car in which he was a passenger came into vio- lent collision with a motor bus in New South Head Road, Res* Say. The car was driven by Mr. B. Bryant, third year engineering student, who as accompanied by lb'. Bayldon anil Mr. H. I). llaffan. a freshman. The ty was proceeding to St. Vincent's Hospital. It was raining heavily at the time, and visibility was extremely had. The bus was travelling In the same direction, but was obscured from Bryant's view. After crossing O'Sulllvan Road, the offside of the car collided with the rear side of the bus. and the whole of the I sidy work of the car on the side on which the collision occurred was torn off. The car con- tinued on its way In a spiral skid and ie to a stop in front of the bus with IU Mi Passengers In the bus were amazed see all three occupants of the car emerge from the wreckage, p-yond a few scratches, all had escaped injury. IN COLLISION I POLITICS AND RELIGION "ULTIMATE CRITERION OF TRUTH ' PROF. ANDERSON'S VIEWS "It is a delicate undertaking for a professor to speak cn religion and politics," said Emeritus Professor Francis Anderson, .VI.A., in an address at the Annual Public Meeting of the Australian Student Christian Movement in the Great Hall last Friday. Professor Anderson went on to say that religion and politics were dan- gerous subjects, but It was more dan- gerous not to speak on then-. "Sotus people think." he added. individual enthusiasm. Once we give ourselves over to systems of delega- tion. it is admittedly difficult to fore- stall such surrender. The natural ten- dency Is towards a surceaae of indi- vidual activity. But. of course, enthu- siasm cannot be killed outright. People who have an interest in drama will still become members of S.l*.D.S. Those who have musical tastes will Inevitably associate themselves with the Music and Glee Club. Those who manifest cacoethes loquendi will at- tend I'nlon Night debates. These and kindred groups are ready media nf individual enthusiasm, and quite the brightest aspects of undergradu- ate life Into the bargain. The danger is that they may become Infected with the common aloofness which our weakness for delegation obviously induces. It is conceivable that some of them might become appanages of the S.R.C. Such is the plight of "Hermes." Every undergraduate is not an actor, a musician, a debater. And every undergraduate is not prompted to set ner. nor does he wish to digest the experiences of others so expressed. The underlying fallacy In the present administration of "Hermes" lies in the assumption that every undergraduate is so interested. Otherwise the device of a representative staff is not only unfortunate, but unintelligent. it anaesthetises the goose that lays the golds* egg, and no self-respecting goose will lay eggs, particularly golden eggs, under an anaesthetic. The un- dergraduate who Is prompted to set out his experiences In a literary man- ner. and who finds acute Interest In the similar ideas of others, is simply brolight down to the level of the un- dergraduate who would sooner have ^ toothache. They both iiossess the privilege of putting contributions into the Editor's Box. Instead of being encouraged to enter a literary fellowship where he may develop under sympathetic con- ditions. the undcrgrad. with a literary bent. along with the rest, is made de- cently remote from the journal's per- sonality. Naturally enough, we have no reasonable grounds for believing that the first New "Hermes" will be any Iletter than the last Old "Hermes." If the magazine has built up In Its iwlmy days any sort of a n arresting tradition, or had developed an intri- guing liersonallty. mayhap not all the multitudinous S.R.C.'s could have de- flated Interest In it. But our present anxiety about "Hermes" Is. after all. ltased upon our realisation that it seldom attained that piquancy, and the pious hope that careful therapy might achieve It yet. How do we go aliout It? Democrati- cally. of course. Why give thought to a literary or any other tradition? Just execute a deed of conveyance to the S.R.C.: it will devise a beau- tifully consistent scheme for Its con- trol. a nice, thoroughly representative staff, one from each—If winter comes, an shivers be far behind? All students of the University of TennesMe have organised them- selves into county club*, the pur- pose being to form a closer contact between students in the University and the people in the counties way back home. Rep reeentatives elected by each eeunty club send a weekly letter, which is published in the county ime >7 counties are receiving news of their State University by these meana. Physios and ReHfrion Professor Voawilsv's Viow "Physics will have to be brought into loser contact with philosophy," said Professor Vonwiller, in an address on The Significance of Modern Physics for Religion,' in the I'nlon Hall on Thursday. . . Work on the structure of the atom." he continued, "makes chemistry branch of physics. From the early days, physicists have carried out their experiments on dead matter. I think that w e a r e on the eve of a change. Physicists will have to take Into ac- count some indeterminate factor. I suggest that this factor will be similar to the life-factor in biological science. In view of this I think that biology will eventually become a branch of change would have to be made In the physicist's philosophy. Certain mat- ters which had been accepted as axiom - itic had to be cast aside. "In the early days the experimental physicist." he said, "harboured a kind of scorn for the philosopher, defining him as one who tells us what every- body knows in language which no- body understands." Professor Vonwiller went on to say that two centuries ago Newton estab- lished mechanics on a firm basis. Laws established after this were mathemati- cal. Later one scientist postulated that If t h e position of every particle In the universe and its velocity at any one instant were known, then some i per Intellect would lie In a position | to predict the future, providing he had the facts and ability to apply cer- . tain laws. In the light of recent a d - j vances in atomic physics, this was; not a satisfactory statement. A know- j ledge of the initial state at one In- , stant was no criterion for the future.' The question for the physicist to-day | was to tind the probability of the change in state. The physicist was like j that religion and ['"lilies are on par- llel lines, which on being prolonged never meet. This is foolish and dan- gerous. Religion isolated from social nd public activities, liecomes sterilis- ed. a mechanical exercise or a mere ntimentation. On the other hand, social and public activities, uninspired by a sense of higher issues, degenerate fad or fashion, a game of party grab or a class war. where envy, hatred and uncharitahleness has full play." Professor Anderson added that It ad been said that a Professor of Phil- sophy should have no politics a n d n o religion. This enly meant fhat, he, like all true teachers, should free him- self from partisan or sectarian preju- dices. It did. not necessarily mean that religion was outside his beat. There is nothing outside the philosophic beat." he added. "Philosophy la the intellectual attempt to understand the universe. The philosopher is more conscious than others of the limita- tions of knowledge and the defects of the merely Intellectual view." There is no object or problem. Pro- fessor Anderson went on to say. on which a purely intellectual view was possible or complete. "We feel that we are greater than we know." .This did not mean that the heart was higher than the head, sense and reasoning, but that the human spirit was more than all Its partial manifestations. Sense and reason, head and heart, imagination and intuition were all necessary if w e were to read the whole It'iW. tbe per- fect vision. "The late poet laureate. Dr. Bridges, said in his last and finest work. A Testimony of Beauty'." Professor An- derson concluded, "that because phil- osophers lacked vision, they lacked the Way. But philosophers were not the only persons who miss the Way. There were diversities of gifts and divisions of labour and we should not quarrel with the philosopher because he was not also .1 poet. The heart of Dr. Bridges" ^Testimony of Beauty' put in - " the idealist philosopher. Lotze. His teaching was that the abstract reason ilone cannot penetrate to the inmost core of reality. The ultimate criterion of truth was to he found in the highest emotions of the spirit and in a faith born of that emotion."' the statistician—lie could not make a precise prediction. Quoting Sommerfelil. Professor Von- willer said that "neither the material- istic nor the spiritual monism has hitherto solved satisfactorily the hy- brid nature of the organic existence In body and soul. Now we see a like dualism enter Into the foundation of physics. If In physics both kinds of consideration really prove to be In- dls|iensable. then this might perhaps throw a half-light on the infinitely more difficult question, to be attacked with Infinitely more caution, that of the mutual working of body and mind."
