Journalism Conferences Sponsored By KU School
Four regional high school journalism conferences will be sponsored jointly in the next two weeks by the William Allen White School of Journalism and Public Information and the Kansas State High School Activities association. In previous years only one conference has been held at the University, but it was decided to hold regional meetings this year to give more schools the opportunity to be represented.
The first meeting will be Friday at Wichita East High school. The program will run from 9:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. and will consist of an address, round-tables for students and teachers, a regional business meeting of the Kansas Council of Teachers of Journalism and a final session of all delegates at which subject matter taken up in the round-tables will be summarized. Dean Burton W. Marvin of the William Allen White School of Journalism and Public Information will preside, and Whitley Austin, editor of The Salina Journal, will speak on the newspaper and the community.
Meredith Cromer, journalism teacher at Wichita East High school, is in charge of arrangements for the Wichita conference. The same program pattern will be followed at the other three regional meetings.
The oortheast and east Kansas session will be held in Fraser hall Saturday. The speaker will be Dwight Payton, editor, The Overbrook Citizen, Overbrook, Kan. Arrangements for the Lawrence meeting are being handled by Charles Harkness of the University Extension.
The northwest Kansas meeting will be on Thursday, Oct. 5, at Ft. Hays State college. Henry Jameson, business manager of the Abilene Reflector-Chronicle and Associated Press correspondent in Europe during World War II, will speak. Professor Ralph Coder of Ft. Hays State college is in charge of planning the meeting there.
G. O. Watson, journalism teacher at Shawnee-Mission High school and president of the Kansas Council of Teachers of Journalism, will meet with teachers at each conference to set up regional K.C.T.J. groups. Plans will be made for an annual statewide K.C.T.J. meeting in cooperation with the University where K.C.T.J. was established.
The southwest Kansas conference will be held at Garden City High school on Saturday, Oct. 7, with Gervais Reed, publisher of the Garden City Telegram, as principal speaker. Arrangements are being made by A. H. Elland, principal of Garden City High school.

Armed forces personnel serving in Korea are entitled to full wartime compensation rates for an injury or disease incurred in the line of duty. Dependents of servicemen fatally injured will also receive full war-time compensation, according to Veterans Administration officials.
VA Announces New Benefits
The Veterans Administration, in response to numerous inquiries, stated that those who served in Korea may receive hospitalization, out-patient medical and dental treatment through the V.A. only if discharged under other than dishonorable conditions.
Servicemen may apply to have their premiums paid by the V.A. on up to $10,000 worth of commercial life insurance. Application for this waiver is made through military or naval establishments.
Dependents will also receive a death gratuity, a payment amounting to six months' pay of a deceased person. Reemployment rights also are extended to those engaged in the present conflict.
However, only veterans with service between Sept. 16, 1940 and July 25, 1947, are eligible for the G.I. bill benefits.
Veterans in this area may secure assistance through the V.A. regional office located at 1828 Walnut, Kansas City, Mo.
Japanese Students To Get KU Books
Japanese students will soon receive 24 boxes of text books, now on the way to the Far East.
University of Kansas students donated the books during the past spring after the Student Religious council issued a call. Council officials said the response exceeded their expectations.

The convocation began at 10:30 Monday morning and was held on the lawn of the college. After lunch, President and Mrs. J. L. Zwingle of Park college received the delegates and guests informally.

Upstairs Maid Vanishes From Park Avenue Homes
New York—(U.P).—Gladys, the upstairs maid, seems to be a vanishing American.
A survey of domestic help agencies shows swank East side town houses are looking for the "all-around girl" when it comes to servants. No longer does Madam have an upstairs maid, a downstairs maid, a cook, a butler and a chauffeur.
"The cook has to help with the housework and the upstairs maid has to wait on the table," said the head of an employment agency specializing in "high class domestic help." Park avenue residents that had five or six servants before the war now average two or three, according to the agency's estimate.
"Nobody brings a girl up to be a maid or a cook anymore," complained Eleanor Nielsen, who heads her own domestic employment agency, "I have plenty of butlers available, but I can't begin to fill the requests for a girl to do general housework."
Short supply isn't the only reason for the servant cutback in the high-ceilinged homes of the rich.
"They can't afford five or six servants at the salaries they have to pay now," one agency manager said. "Besides, they have to feed them, and with the cost of food today, well-to-do families don't like to add six people to the list of mouths to feed."
"The they have to pay more for them, so they expect more from the maid or cook." Miss Neilsen explained. "The girls get dissatisfied because they have so much to do, so they quit. Then we find them another maid and it happens all over again."
Even the advantages of free room and board have failed to entice many of the former domestic servants back from industrial jobs they first got during the war.
Time was when office hours were
long and a girl figured she would be better off with a maid's salary and a free roof over her head.
"Now office hours are so much shorter than a maid's that the girls just figure it isn't worth it," said Miss Neilsen.
A good maid, if anybody wants to apply, demands around $40 a week in Manhattan now, plus room and board of course. A butler gets at least $50.
"But even the butlers today spend less time looking dignified and more time doing odd jobs around the house." Miss Nielsen commented with a sigh.
The housing act of 1950 provides a guarantee of 60 per cent up to $7,500 for veterans buying a house with a G.I. loan.
