Father Coughlin and his demagogic speeches are the stuff that revolutions are made of. Men will revolt, to use his unique phrase, to "drive the money-changers from the temple," or to abolish the power of gold, without worrying about the essential need of middlemen, or of a currency system. If his economic premises are inaccurate, he can reply he is not interested in teaching economics; but desires "to weave together the facts." It is a method which the Roman Church has never been afraid to use, in the fact of its own logicians. But his ideas...

If it is not true, then there is small defence for an unhandsome and elaborate system of secrecy. This system has existed too long. It has been without reason save of the most obvious sort. If this...

...announcement that the Student Council intends definitely to abolish the sophomore and junior elections will undoubtedly meet with the approval of all concerned. That these elections, purely nominal and honorary in character, have long forfeited any interest they may once have commanded is clearly shown by the small vote cast during the last few years. Since returns rarely represent more than one third of any class, the elections neither express a concensus of opinion nor justify the expense and trouble they entail...
