Chafee Says Attainder Bills Remove Undesired Officials
Bills of attainer were developed to meet the problem of "getting rid of undesired high officials," Zechariah Chafe Jr., Harvard professor of law, said Tuesday in Fraser theater.
"Such bills were prohibited in the Constitution of 1787 in order to protect citizens from the states," he said, delivering the second in a series of three lectures on "Three Rights in the Original Constitution."
The theory behind such bills was to remove high officials who had committed some crime, but in actual practice in England the crime was alleged in order to remove the official, Professor Chafee explained.
The practice of using bills of attainder was dying out along with the custom of impeachment when the Constitution was written, he said. He added that problems that come under that type of legislation, he added.
"There is the problem of using legal procedure to get rid of the chief minister." Professor Chafea said. Bills of attainder are prohibited in the Constitution and impeachment is too cumbersome, he said.
Congress tried to oust three undesired officials by stopping their salaries. They sued for their pay and the Supreme court gave it to them, Professor Chafee said.
Dr. H. R. Wagenblast, director of the Lawrence - Douglas county health department, will speak on problems in public health at a meeting of the Bacteriology club at 7:30 p.m. today in 502 Snow hall.
The talk will deal with laboratory work in connection with public health. Dr. Wagenblast will emphasize the work of the Lawrence health department and the state laboratories in Topeka.
Health Director To Speak Tonight
Dr. Wagenblast received his doctor of medicine degree from the University of Kansas School of Medicine in 1939. He was associated with the National health department for one year before coming to Lawrence last July.
"Congress is looking for an informal substitution for impeachment," he said.
Another problem in this category is the use of test oaths for private citizens.
A business meeting will precede the lecture.
"There is the matter of investigating private citizens and condemning them." Professor Chafee said. "There is no attempt to have decent procedures for investigating committees."
Such measures only bring themselves into "disrepute" and bring our system of government "a great deal of harm." Professor Chafee stated.
"Congressional punishment of people before committees for contempt may accomplish their purpose in the short run," he said. "But legality in the long run will not save governmental measures that are detestable to large numbers of people."

Taft Wins In Wisconsin; Earns 24 Delegate Votes
Milwaukee, Wis.—(U.P.)—Sen. Robert A. Taft won an impressive victory in Wisconsin's Republican presidential primary today and regained ground in his battle with Gen. Dwight Eisenhower for the GOP nomination.
The Ohio Republican won 24 of the state's 30 delegates in what his supporters termed a "tremendous victory."
Gov. Earl Warren of California won six delegates and former Gov. Harold Stassen of Minnesota, who had promised half his delegates to Eisenhower, got none.
In the Democratic contest, which lost its luster when President Truman announced he would not be a candidate, Sen. Estes Kefauver of Tennessee easily defeated pro-Truman candidates Jerome Fox and Charles Broughton to take all the state's 36 Democratic delegates.
Taft gained an increasing lead over Eisenhower in Nebraska's Republican primary and apparently had won his first write-in victory.
Taft, who entered the Nebraska race at the last moment, appeared to have scored a significant victory in his first game, also his first major setback at the polls.
Both Taft and "Ike" were write in candidates in Nebraska. Harold E. Stassen was on the ballot, but running third.
Sen. Estes Kefauver (D-Tenn) won the Democratic primary test over Sen. Robert Kerr, who con-
tended today as she trailed by 10,000 votes.
Kerr said "The Senator has evidently won the popularity contest and I congratulate him." Kerr said he still was a "candidate for president," but had no immediate campaign plans.
2 Housemothers Reported 'Better'
The last-minute write-in campaign by Taft supporters paid off as the Ohio senator led nearly the way, Eisenhower came from behind twice during the night, but did not hold top position for long.
Two housemothers injured in an auto accident Sunday night when their brakes failed have been reported today by Memorial hospital as "better."
Mrs. C. E. Thomas, Phi Gamma Delta housemother, suffered a concussion and her condition is described as "air." Mrs. Frank M. Baird, Pi Kappa Alpha housemother, suffered cuts and bruises and is reported in good condition.
Kansas Voters Soundly Defeat Local Prohibition Proposals
Also riding in the car were Mrs. Edna M. Stewart, Kappa Sigma housemother, and Mrs. Edward H. Turner, Phi Kappa Sigma housemother, who were injured only slightly.
The 20 local option elections represented the first Wet-Dry balloting in Kansas since 69 years of statewide prohibition was repealed in 1948.
Kansas voters soundly defeated local option prohibition proposals in yesterday's 20 municipal elections.
In several cities the vote was close.
At Wellington, unofficial returns showed the Wets had a margin of only 19 votes, 1,674 to 1,655. Fredonia and 88-vote margin, 789 to 701.
Kansas' present semi-wet condition allows sale of liquor by the package, but prohibits its consumption in public places. The law legalizing sale of alcoholic beverages, applies to officers clauses 1948, contains a local option clause.
He said he had anticipated Dry victories in 12 of the 20 cities but was surprised by the "powerful showing of the Wets."
However, the Rev. Roy Holomon, leader of Kansas Dry forces, said in Topeka today it was only a "temporary setback."
A record turnout vote was reported in several towns, including Abilene and Goodland.
Goodland had a record-smashing
"We have not begun to fight," the Rev. Mr. Hololan said. "The decent people of Kansas will begin their battle all over again today."
turnout—the heaviest vote in the city's history. The final count favored liquor sales by 1,184 to 572.
Abilene, which favored the Wet issue by only 146 votes in 1948, gave liquor sales 1,460 votes as against 936 opposed—a Wet majority of 524.
Jayhawker Queen Contest Opens
The opening of the 1552 Jayhawkier queen contest was announced today by Win Koerper, editor-in-chief of the Jayhawkier.
All organized houses, as well as any other groups, may submit pictures of their candidates to the Javahwer.
The queen will be judged on beauty, wits, and all-around personality.
"However, this year, the emphasis will definitely be placed on beauty," Koerper said.
Details of the contest may be obtained from the Jayhawker office.
Debators Blast McCarthy Tactics
The major argument in the Missouri-Kansas debate on the topic "Resolved, that Sen. Joseph McCarthy (R.-W.is.) has done more harm than good for his country" was between the KU contention that Senator McCarthy was trying to rid the country of Communist infiltration and the MU statement that the senator has not proven a case.
The debate was held Tuesday night in the Little theater in Green hall between two Missouri university and two Kansas university debaters. The Missouri debaters were Carl Gum and Jim Windsor, sophores, and Win Koerper and Heywood Davis. college seniors.
"Senator McCarthy has introduced the big lie to the United States," Carl Gum said, adding, "when one man by malicious slander can cause us to lose our jobs, we are having our freedoms abridged."
He stated that Senator McCarthy first told other senators he knew of 205 Communists and that on successive occasions, he reduced the number to 57, to three, and finally
said he could not "at this time" disclose any names.
Jim Windsor said that out of all his accusations, the senator has only turned up one case and that in this case, he wasn't able to prove the man, John Stewart Service, was a Communist.
"He's shown little practical interest in getting rid of communists," he said. "The truth can be proven," he said, continuing. "Senator McCain had since 1850 to prove his statement and has not proved one single case."
Heywood Davis said Senator McCarthy has done two things for the American people. First, he has been the promoter of worthy endeavor and second, he has been the personification of the democratic ideal—freedom of speech.
"Senator McCarthy's primary concern is to rid the U.S. of Communist tendencies and those lenient toward Communists, especially in the government, and particularly in the state government," he said.
Win Koerper said that rather than
having been proved wrong, the senator has not proven himself right; that he has to base his statements on material to which we have no access.
"The communist party is seeking to influence the youth." he said. "Communism is not in every sense a party, but a conspiracy to obtain international dictatorship. We must use any means short of dictatorship to rid the country of that menace."
