The ASC Cuts Expenses
The All Student Council is stressing economy in its appropriations this year. This program undoubtedly will bring criticism and complaints from numerous campus organizations whose appropriations have been reduced.
Stressing economy may seem strange in view of the fact that the council's total income will be greater this year than ever before. What is behind the action of cutting appropriations of individual organizations? It is a rare trait called foresight. The A.S.C. has started a program of retrenchment with its eyes on the leaner days that lie ahead.
The days of record-shattering enrollment at the University are almost over. Veteran enrollments already have dropped and probably will continue their downward trend. The University administration already has complained of mounting costs and decreasing income. The A.S.C. realizes that its income also will shrink in the not too distant future and so it is making plans to meet the situation.
To save funds from which to appropriate in the future the council must save and to save it must cut present appropriations to the bare minimum.
Other organizations on the Hill will do well to follow the A.S.C.'s lead and get ready for that proverbial rainy day. They should cooperate with the council and save money. Such conservation is good insurance. John Riley
Mrs. Truman is quoted as saying she would like for her husband to return to the senate. There are those who wish he had never left.
Russia wants the atom bomb outlawed as a war weapon except for defense measures. Naturally, the Soviets would use their own definition of defense.
Secretary of State Marshall says the United States will "stand pat" in Berlin. Perhaps he knows who is holding the trump card in this game.

Dear Editor
Read the Daily Kansan daily.
Without Rancor
We wish publicly to take umbrage at the student letter which deployed faculty abuse of library privileges. We do not deny that occasionally, in the course of our duties, we are compelled to read books. We believe that we are justified in reading books. Without rancor, we should like to point out that we do not have: (1) parking permits; (2) activity books; (3) convertibles; (4) walkouts; or (5) bank rolls.
Dear Editor:
In all humility, we petition for student generosity in this matter. If this complaint is too frequently and vociferously made, we predict that the library will remove the only faculty prerogative.
