UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN BUT PROF. HIGGINS SCENTS SOCIALISM Says State Employment of Lawyers Foreshadows State Control of All Business In a recent address before the Bar Association of Milwaukee, Christian Dosherfer, president of that organization, stated that there is something wrong with the administration of the law in America today. He said that too much attention is given to the interests of the client, and not enough to the ends of justice. As a remedy for this condition, he suggested that the attorneys should be paid out of a public fund. When asked today concerning his opinion of the proposition, Prof. W. E. Higgins said "If it is proposed to furnish an official prosecutor and an official defender, the individual party concerned in the litigation is deprived of freedom of choice in what society now recognizes is a state where the parties cannot permit the parties' liberty of choice, but to provide that the expense of litigation shall be borne by the state, then the volume of litigation will enormously increase." "If private business in dispute by litigation is to become entirely the public business of the state, then the private business which gives rise to the matters in litigation must just as logically become the business of the state, and private enterprise be abolished. Without the proposed measure, the proposed measure, it appears to me that the proposal is but a step, in the direction of state socialism. New Books in Library.

Price of Municipality League is Kept Busy Instructing Towns This week has been a busy one for Prof. R. R. Price, secretary of the Kansas League of Municipalities. Five Kansas cities have given valuable legal advice. One town was told how it could compel a citizen to build a side walk in front of his property, and another how to handle its sinking fund. The law for extending the corporate limits was pointed out to one while another was told how to issue and sell bonds for city water works. Every day information of this kind is sent out by Secretary Price and often the acknowledgement of the receipt of this advice is an inquiry on some other question.

SHAAD TELLS HOW TO THAW PIPES Explains New Method o Foiling the Plumber by Electricity When the water pipes are frozen up and the plumbers are busy; use an electric current to thaw the plumbing. The severe cold weather this winter has caused this system to become prevalent in the north. An electric transformer with an alternating electric is needed. These are applied to the frozen pipes so that a circuit is formed; and thus quickly melt the ice. "This method has proved to be satisfactory in the northern states," said George C. Shad of the Electrical Experiment Station yesterday, "but as a rule the pipes in Kansas do not freeze up like those farther north, and the plumbers here do not prepare for their jobs." The success of the University of Wisconsin has been given credit for inventing this method, over a decade ago." There are two ways of thawing pipes by electricity—applying a local current through the transformer, and getting the current from storage batteries. The former is the more economic and satisfactory as the batteries are difficult to move from place to place. A local current however, is not sufficient for the plant or electrician. Terra Cotta drain pipes, non-conductors of electricity, can be thawed when a wire has been run through them. The ordinary one-inch water pipes can be tawhed in a few minutes,but the length of time increases with larger pipes The actual cost of thawing is materially lessened, and the plumbers do not have to spend all their money and the electrician shares his profits. The electrical method can be used in thawing any kind of pipes. Gas pipes when frozen can be successfully thawed without danger.
