in which to expand world Communism and she gets a large area of protection from possible aggressors.”
Boorman then went back and outlined specific steps the two countries had taken together since the Red Chinese govern- j ment took over in 1949.
“In 1950 they announced a 30-year treaty of friendship, alliance, and mutual assistance as it was called which said they would fight together if either one was attacked by Japan or one of Japan’s allies,” he said.
“After the death of Stalin in 1953 two principles became evident: The increased flexibility of the Russian policy toward China, and the steadily rising role of China. They issued a ! joint statement in which they . agreed to consult each other on all -matters concerning either China or Russia,” he said.
of Englishmen because some critics were highly complimentary toward them and others
definitely were not,” said O’Connor.
The group started at Cambridge University about 1904 when several of them studied with the philosopher G. E. Moore. Later each of the group became eminent in their respective fields.
Some of the members of the Bloomsbury Group are John Keynes, economist; Leonard and Virginia Wolfe, writers; Clyde Bell, art critic; his wife, Vanessa, painter; and Rodger Fry, art critic.
Others are Duncan Grant, artist; Lvtton Stratchey, biographer; E. M. Forrester, novelist; David Garnett, writer; Desmond McCarthy, book critic for the London Times, and Raymond Mortimer. McCarthy’s successor on the Times.
Independence of Professor Question Labeled Dilemma
“Shall I denounce all the progress of the last 200 years including the industrial revolution or shall I denounce my own values and accept the system.”
This is the “Dilemma of the Professor,” said Dr. Harry Broudy, professor of philosophy and education at Massachusetts State Teacher’s college, at the Faculty Club luncheon yesterday.
“At no time in history has so much comfort been available to the average man for so little, effort and never it has been so hard to be really independent,” he said.
“The dilemma is brought
about by two things: I am devoted to a certain kind of discipline. Yet I am a representative of a culture living at its best.”
Independence Is Hard
“It is extremely hard to be independent in today’s world of interdependence,” Dr. Broudy went on. This system provides a pretty good house, a pretty good job, a healthy wife or husband, children, opportunities for amusement, travel, and education if you are willing to pay the price.”
“All you have to do is be willing to participate in mass interests, mass taste, and mass everything. You have to be a mem-
ber of the team or you’re out. The comfort we enjoy is based upon the Interdependence among people,” the professor said.
He stated that a person desiring to be independent could either fight or wait and do nothing.
“But fight who? You can’t fight pressures, atmospheres, complexities, and conditions. It is not tpeople you are fighting but a system, a system that is providing you with the greatest blessings.
“Or you can wait, and do nothing. Automation is developing so much leisure time that the turn to intellectualism wi< be the only alternative of boredom,” Broudy said.
