Book Display For W.A. White
William Allen White's birthday anniversary is being observed this week in Watson library by an exhibition of books and pictures. White was born Feb. 10, 1868 and died Jan. 29, 1944.
White was a student at the University in 1886. He worked on the old Kansas City Journal and the Kansas City Star, and later bought the Emporia Gazette for $3,000.
"His editorial, "What's the Matter with Kansas," won him national fame and his editorial on the death of his daughter won him the Pulitzer prize.
On exhibition are the two editors mentioned, two picture of White and a letter from him to Prof. W. H. Carruth, author of the book, "Each in His Own Tongue."
The books on display are "Autobiography of W. A. White—the Man from Emporia," by Everett Rich; "A Man from Kansas," by David Hinshaw; "William Allen White's America," by Walter Johnson; and "William Allen White of Emporia," by Frank C. Clough.
Learning is dangerous only when it stops, Max Foresman, assistant director of industrial relations of the Kansas branch of the Spencer Chemical company said Tuesday. He spoke to the Society for the Advancement of Management.
"The management at Spencer has begun to realize that men who want to keep on learning after their regular schooling is completed are worth helping."
He described to the members of S.A.M. the extensive educational program of the Spencer Chemical company.
Mr. Foresman said that the Taft-Hartley labor act is not going to cure any evils because management will depend upon the act too much.
"Cases of poor management pointed out as examples by labor are generally extreme situations. I am convinced that no other class is more concerned with the problems of labor than management."
SAM Told To Study
"Seniors in college should go on and obtain a master's degree if it is at all possible." Mr. Foresman said.
