To the Editors of the CRIMSON:
My recent proposal that the Students for Eisenhower join the Political Forum precipitated somewhat of a furor among a number of the members of the former organization. Several, yielding to the rule of emotion, promptly stated that if the proposal were passed they would resign. To these people I can offer no arguments; their minds are closed. However, I would like to address myself to those members of SFE who have open minds and to the student body in general.
Any organization joining the Political Forum has much to gain and nothing to lose. On the plus side there may be considered the derivable benefits. Briefly, these are the opportunity to be in regular contact with the other participating members, to discuss problems which are common to all concerned, and to put to good use the mass of accumulated past experience. Most important, a participating group may become an integral part of the regularly sponsored forums, which were proved useful and worthwhile last Thursday night. . . .
Those who threaten to resign from Students for Eisenhower if this proposal is passed show themselves to be only "bread and butter" Eisenhower supporters. May I urge all of our members to consider the arguments rationally and prove that SFE is truly a clear-headed and independent organization. Morton Korn '57, Chairman, Students for Eisenhower.
