‘Strike’ Threatens Washington State
Students March in Protest To Asserted Misuse By President
PULLMAN, Wash., May 5—CD-Quick action by student conservatives tonight narrowly averted a “strike vote” of 3000 excited Washington State college students and gained another 24 hours for the college administration to meet demands of the Students’ Liberty association.
Ten student representatives who met with President Ernest O. Holland came out of the conference this afternoon, angry because he had conceded only two of their eight demands, and went to the men’s gym to report to a mass meeting.
One faction clamored for the strike Wednesday, as threatened unless the manifesto was answered immediately. Others, who won the meeting after a hard debate, set Thursday morning as the deadline.
More than 2500 students marched across the campus in a protest parade today, carrying placards and singing. A sound truck and 75-piece band led the parade. More than 100 placards and banners were carried by the marchers.
Excerpts from other signs: “This may be a cow college, but we’re not contented”; “convent or college?”; “Germany has Hitler. Italy has Mussolini, we have Ernie” (President E. O. Holland); “Annie’s rules are not needed any more’' (Dean of Women Ann!e Fertig); “freedom from Fertig’s foolishness.”
