People Sober Officials Say
Kansas voting wet has neither increased nor decreased the number of legal offenses in Lawrence, Robert B. Oyler, county prosecutor, and Charles Springer, city attorney, said
Mr. Oyler said, "I don't think there has been any noticeable change in the number of offenses as a result of intoxicants since the repeal."
The county prosecutor went on to explain that the number of arrests for drunken driving in the county has not gone up since the state voted wet. Also, the number of arrests which have been made for riotous conduct as a result of intoxicants in taverns has not increased.
Mr. Springer said that the same is true of the city. However, he pointed out that the city is not responsible for the enforcement of liquor law as it is the responsibility of the state to enforce this law.
The city prosecutor said that he has talked to the local police about the liquor question and all officers are agreed that the repeal has not affected the number of offenses.
Mr. Oyler pointed out that those who have been arrested for misuse of intoxicating beverages are the same people who were arrested during prohibition days.
Mr. Springer pointed out that the reason why some people may think more liquor is being consumed and that there is more abuse today of the privilege is that previously people did their drinking in more secrecy. Today Kansan's are more open about drinking and therefore some people have concluded that drinking is on an un-grade.
Both officials said that they thought the liquor laws were being well enforced. The county attorney said that he has had comparatively little trouble with violations and believes that throughout Douglas county the laws are being adhered to closely.

Miss Twente Talks To Social Club
Miss Esther E. Twente, professor of social work, told Social Work club members when they are graduated they may expect to get jobs comparable in pay to civil engineering, accounting, or newspaper reporting.
Professor Twente likened a social worker to a doctor in that a social worker must be acquainted with most phases and aspects of life.
The Social Work club met for a business meeting and subdivided into three special interest groups, casework, child welfare, and group work. The casework group will be in charge of the next club meeting, Thursday, Nov. 3.
An organization whose purpose is to secure a lasting world peace, has been started at the University. The organization is called the Youth of All Nations and Jerome Mirsky, assistant instructor in romance languages, is the K. U. representative.
The Youth of All Nations will seek to promote world peace through the interchange of letters between persons of the United States and other countries. Miss Clara Leisser, Minnesota author and chairman of the organization, said that an exchange of letters between countries can bring about the understanding that is essential to world peace.
World Youth Group Opens On Campus
New members are given a list of questions concerning their ideas on world peace and their personal likes and hobbies. Answers are mimeographed and sent to other members who may answer with their beliefs or personal tastes. Miss Leisser chooses a person in some foreign country with similar beliefs and encourages correspondence between the two nations.
Mr. Mirsky met Miss Leisser in New York City the past summer where they discussed plans for the group. He said the club is open to persons of all ages. One of the most active members is an 80-year-old woman.

Enumerators, the men and women who will ask the questions during two to six weeks of work, will be paid a nickel a person for getting answers. They will cover 40 to 60 households a day.
The year 1950 will end another decade and create the job of counting heads again by Uncle Sam. Taking the census is going to cost about $7\frac{1}{2}$ million dollars next year.

Some new questions have been added since the last census was taken in 1940. One which was placed in the census questionnaire only a few weeks ago is, "Do you own a television set?"
Routine questions will deal with name, address, age, occupation, education, income, veteran or non-veteran, home owner or renter. Every home owner will be asked, "Do you have running water?"
The census bureau has made elaborate plans to avoid missing anyone. Special enumerators will take the census at such places as hotels, hospitals, jails and prisons.
