Lies and Liberals
Sir.—We noticed in a recent Charter Club pamphlet two blatant misstatements of fact. The Executive of last year which was removed from office by the "cattle fair" General Meeting has been dubbed by the Chartists as "socialistic controlled." Simple reference to the personalities on that Executive and some elementary arithmetic will show the socialists in a minority of one to four.
Further it was the Debating Society, headed by our present President, that sent a telegram to the Democratic Students of the Prague University and not the Socialist Club who sent a telegram to Gottwald. It can be said of the leftist minority of the College that at least they do not back up their propaganda with conscious lies nor do they descend to the level of defacing the notices of opponent Clubs.
