of international relations, in discussing the gloomy prospects of an i early peace settlement for Germany and Austria by the Big Pour foreign ministers.
FAILURE NO SURPRISE Branding the failure of the four j powers to agree as “hardly surprising.” Dr. Berkes declared that it may be inadvisable at the present to conclude a pei*oe treaty since it: “would involve concessions that nei- i ther side would uphold for very I long, lead only to further difficul- j ties, bad faith, and violation oi : i treaty commitments.”
Dr. Berkes stated he believes it ! would not be difficult for the Uni- j ted States and Russia to agree on
German-Austrian settlements if
they had more confidence in each other, but lacking that confidence, it would perhaps be wiser to ad- ; joum and await a more favorable I atmosphere for conclusion of the treaties.
stumbling blocks
He explained that the stumbling blocks in German settlements are •
mainly reparations and forms of i government. The Russians want a Jpnge •mount ot Npanuou, re- i
gardless of who ultimately pays for them. The United States doesn’t mind how much Germany is obligated to pay, so long as some means can be found enabling her to pay them herself, and still miantain her own vital imports.
Defending the American stand in that it includes “every consideration j of justice, common sense and his-i torical precedent,” Dr. Berkes stated that Russia's stubbornness com-i monly can be seen as a device to gain a voice in Germany's industrial i section, delay the settlement, and I embarrass the western powers.
‘NO ADVANTAGE’

Texas Trips Troy s Horse; Leads Drive
The Trojan warhorse stumbled, slipped, and almost fell to his knees yesterday as the University of Texas Longhorns broke into an early $209 —$34.82 lead in the World Student Service fund “battle of dollars.” which got under way at noon.
The four-day race, which runs until 4 p.m. Friday, came about as a result of a challenge extended by SC and accepted by Texas last week as to which school will be more willing to give to the WSSF cause. This cause is to help the poverty stricken students in Europe and Asia.
According to unconfirmed reports received yesterday, people down Austin way are beginning to hum a ditty which sounds something like. “The Trojan Horse, He Ain’t What He Used to Be.”
Furthermore the Texans expressed little doubt but what the final results will be tallied in favor of the Longhorns.
WSSF ‘Trojanality’
Contest Opens Today
The polls will be open from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. today for voting in the “Trojanality Man” contest.
Price for each vote is one cent and each student may vote as many times as he wishes. All money derived from the election will be donated to the WSSF.
Candidates are Johnny Davis, Hank Workman. Bob Graham, Doug Essick, and Bill Winn.
The polls in front of Administration will be open today, tomorrow, and Thursday. The winner will be announced Friday noon.
As a result of recent student comment concerning the service of the Student Union cafeterias, Robert D. Fisher, financial vice-president, yesterday announced plans for a | complete check on SC eating conditions within the next 10 days.
Mir Fisher said that reports saying service in the two Student Union cafeterias is not of the same quality as that in the new universi-! ty cafeteria will receive attention, j. Clarifying the point that thecafe-: terias are operated by the univer-| sity. Mr. Fisher said that all employees are under direct supervision of the administration. He wishes | to correct the impression that Mc-1 Donnell s restaurants operate a concession here.
OPERATING AT LOSS
Mr. Fisher disclosed for the first , time that the cafeterias are operating at a loss at present, regardless of the fact that all food for the j three restaurants is purchased in bulk.
In spite of the rising cost of ' food- every effort is being made to keep meal prices as low as possible for the students; therefore we have not seen fit to serve more of the : expensive varieties of food.” Mr.
! Fisher said.

Supplementing the campaign of many ASSC solons, the majority of Trojans recently polled spoke in favor of changing the student council legislature from the present form
of functional representation to proportional representation.
Student reaction to this question was close, with good arguments presented for both types of legislature. Twenty-nine of 65 students favored a shift to proportional representation. 24 believed the ASSC should

With proportional representation the senators would be allocated according to the number of members of the various organizations, and, supporters believe the entire student council would operate as an integrated body with little haggling and concern over the preferences of individual political groups.
