Kansas Population Gains Since 1940
The population of Kansas has been rising in the last eight years, but its birth rate has dropped in the last year. The death rate has been almost unchanged.
This is shown by the latest reports of the census bureau and the public health service.
Births in Kansas during the first six months of 1948 were 19,749, compared with 21,619 for the first six months of 1947.
The Lawrence Camera club will meet at 7:30 p.m. tomorrow at the Community building.
Club officers will be elected. There will also be a demonstration and discussion of different types of cameras. Don Crawford, club member, said.
The civilian population of the state on July 1 was estimated at 1,953,000, an 8.7 per cent increase since 1940. The national rate of increase was 10.6 percent.
Reports show little change in the state's death rate. During the first six months of this year, 9,564 deaths were reported. There were 9,755 deaths during the same period last year.
Camera Club Will Elect

Governor Frank Carlson will be in Lawrence at 3 p.m. tomorrow. He will tour Massachusetts street for about two hours and discuss campaign issues for re-election with Lawrence voters. He will finish his discussions with an hour's session in the Eldridge hotel immediately following.
The governor will attend a dinner at the Castle Tea room at 6:30 p.m. tomorrow and will talk to the party workers and candidates there. Charles A. Edmundson, Republican county chairman, will preside at the dinner.
NROTC Offers $6,000 Course
The navy's new scholarship program offers educational opportunities valued at about $6,000 during a four year college term. Capt. W. R. Terrell, commandant of the University N.R.O.T.C., said Monday in a special broadcast over KFKU.
L. C. Woodruff, dean of men, and James K. Hitt, registrar, also discussed the program.
Fifty-two colleges and universities will have the programs, and about 2,000 men will take part in it this year, Captain Terrell said. Scholarships are available for men between 17 and 21 who can pass the physical and mental examinations.
Applications for the program may be obtained from any high school office in the state, Captain Terrelle sa d. They must be received by the Educational Testing service in Princeton, N. J., before Monday, Nov. 15 The test will be given Saturday, Dec. 11.
Regular students take two summer cruises at sea and one aviation indoctrination cruise, Captain Terrell explained. They must accept a commission for two years after graduation. At the end of that time they may be offered a reserve commission for four more years or their regular commission will remain in force.
Must Face Responsibility Malott Tells Accountants
Addresses by three faculty members from the School of Business and a welcoming speech from Chancellor Deane W. Malutt were featured at a special meeting of the Kansas City chapter of the National Association of Cost Accountant Tuesday. The program was arranged by John Blocker, professor of accounting.
Chancellor Malott spoke on the responsibilities the American people face as citizens. "We must make ourselves better informed on national and international affairs," he said. "How many of us really know what went on in the three national political conventions in Philadelphia this summer?" he asked.
He pointed out that the four great freedoms, the freedom of speech, the freedom of the press, the right of assembly, and the freedom of worship, are more important in this election year than any technical problems. "If we should lose our freedom, it would be lost from the world, as we are its stronghold."
Alpha Chi Omega sorority presented several songs, under the direction of Ann Hogue. Miss Hogue and Martha Weed had solo parts in two numbers. Patricia Perkins presented a skit.
"The student must have a broad, academic and cultural background as well as a knowledge of accounting techniques," he said. "The obligation of the school as to teach all students to recognize problems that arise every day, to diagnose these problems objectively, and to take purposeful action."
Leonard H. Axe, dean of the School of Business, spoke about present day education in accounting. He said the school was faced with the problem of developing in the students a philosophy of life for dealing with a constantly changing world.
"Our future in accounting, in industry, and perhaps in the world may depend upon our ability to adapt ourselves to changing techniques and organization," said Edward G. Nelson, associate professor of accounting, in a talk on "Human Relations in Business."
The final speaker was Ivan M. Farmer, instructor in accounting, who presented a paper on "differential costs."

"He was that foreign student—He says I'm the only girl that understands him."
Graduate Tests Begin Oct. 25
Any student wishing to take the graduate record examination must register at the guidance bureau by noon tomorrow.
The tests are of value to students nearing graduation who plan on graduate or professional study said Glenn Cole, counselor at the bureau. Graduate and professional schools, especially in the East, request that these examination results be submitted by students seeking admission.
The tests cover eight general subjects, mathematics, physics, chemistry, biological science, social studies, literature, fine arts, and general vocabulary. In addition to taking all of the general tests, each candidate takes an advanced test in his major field of study.
The examinations are sponsored by the Educational Testing service of New York, a non-profit organization. The past year 22,000 students over the United States took the tests. A charge of $10 is made.
A personal report is given those taking the test along with an interpretative leaflet which provides information in evaluating their performance.
The tests require about seven hours and will be divided into two periods. The first will begin at 1 p.m. Monday, Oct. 25, the second at 8 a.m., Tuesday, Oct. 26. Both will be held in the Pine room of the Student Union.

ASC To Seek Financial Report From Union
A financial report from the Memorial Union for the 1947-48 fiscal year will be requested by the All Student Council. The resolution was proposed by Robert Bennett, treasurer, and was passed unanimously by the council Tuesday.
Recommendations for appropriations were made by the finance committee. Applicants who are dissatisfied with the recommendations may appear at the finance committee meeting Saturday. If still dissatisfied, they may then appeal directly to the A.S.C. Appropriations will be voted at the next council meeting.
Prizes totaling $5,000 have been announced by the James F. Lincoln Arc Welding foundation of Cleveland. They are in connection with an engineering undergraduate award and scholarship program held annually by the foundation.
The request will be made in order to show Union receipts and expenditures for the information of the council and students. The resolution stated that such information would promote relations between the Union and the student body.
Recommended by the finance committee for the following sums were, Y.M.C.A., $300; Y.W.C.A.,
$250; Alpha Phi Omega, $400; International club, $75; Mortar Board,
$150; Ku Ku's, $110; K.U. Amateur Radio club, $150.
An amendment was passed raising the Jayhawk magazine reserve fund to $4,000 from $2,000. A rider to the amendment stipulated that the $4,000 may not be used without the consent of a majority of the A.S.C.
New council members sworn in were Frank Rozich, division II; Marjorie McCullough, division III; Aldo Aliotti, representative at large; and Robert Thayer, Inter-Fraternity council.
Student court appointees approved by the council are Stuart Dean Mitchelson, Donna Munn and Joe Bailey.
J. H. Nelson, dean of the Graduate school and advisor to the council, announced that the Yugoslav student selected to receive the A.S.C. foreign student scholarship had been denied a visa by the State department because he had no relatives in this country.
$5,000 In Prizes Offered Engineers
Austin Turney, Sue Webster and William Conboy are members of a committee which will work with Dean Nelson in selecting a foreign student to receive the scholarship.
The contest is open to students of all branches of engineering. First prize is $1,000, second is $500, and third is $250. There are 74 other prizes.
Institutions in which the three top awards are made to students will receive amounts of money equal to those awards. This money is to be used to establish scholarships in the departments in which the award winning students are registered.
Rules and further information can be obtained from the dean of the School of Engineering and Architecture.
