'Don't Bite Hand That Feeds-'
What's happened to the congressional measure to raise veterans' G.I. subsistence benefits? In the last regular session of congress a bill was introduced to up the ante. The measure was intended to help hard pressed veterans in college to live through the rising cost of living. It was needed, and there was no reason to delay action—except one.
That reason was that if congress passed the measure in 1947 it would not be fresh in the minds of veterans at the polls in 1948. So congress pretended to be interested in the bill, but took no action until it was too late to get anything done before adjournment.
Now congress can wait until late in the present session, pass the bill, and then shout to the veterans, "Look, see what we did for you—now you support us at the polls in November." We wouldn't bite the hand that feeds us, but the hand that bats us is another matter.
Swallow Carefully
Everytime the Bitter Bird, Dove, Eagle, or any of the other campus feathered publications spreads its wings we get an urge to put out a "bird" of our own. It would probably be "fowl," so we'll only speculate on the possibilities.
For instance, one wag wants to publish The Ostrich. This little gem would picture in each issue an ostrich with his head buried in the sand. The motto would be "Ad astra per aspera," or "To heck with everything."
Another chance for expression would be The Sitting Duck. This paper would go on no crusades, and each story would end with something to the effect of "The Sitting Duck stands for nothing."
One zealot with a crusading spirit was all for publishing The Goose, but his friends persuaded him against it.
"The Parrot" would be an appropriate name for a certain kind of
Roger Babson, nationally known business adviser and founder of Eureka's Utopia college, has deposited $5,000 and securities in each of 20 Midwestern banks, because he says they're safest in case of an atomic war.
We're wondering what good his cash will be after an atomic conflict when there's nothing left for money to buy. It's like a man saving his key to his house which has burned.

publication. Such a paper could repeat the rantings of either the extreme left or right. The only possible difficulty is that the opposing faction, whichever it be, might slip in and teach The Parrot some naughty words like "reactionary," "Faseist," "red," "obstructionist," "pink"—according to the opposite of the Parrot's view.

Pioneer's Passing
But most of all, we would like to publish The Swallow. The motto: "Read carefully and think twice before swallowing contents herein."
The passing of a great University pioneer is to be noted with regret. Dr. Frank Burnett Dains, who died Jan. 5, served the University for 32 years as a faculty member, and in that time he distinguished himself and the University with outstanding achievements in chemistry.
Although for 32 years a University faculty member, he first came to the University 55 years ago, having first served as an assistant professor in 1893. It's possible that he*taught three generations of students in many families.
His impressive list of achievements and honors includes Phi Beta Kappa, Sigma Xi, and many others. Through the service of men like Dr. Dains the University becomes great.

Fine Arts Bulletin Board Displays Bowl Pictures
The students you may have noticed this week crowded around the bulletin board to the west of the Fine Arts office are looking at Orange bowl pictures, clipped from Miami papers.
A group of new pictures are up today. Several shots of the band are included, one showing them on the field forming a large "K" for Kansas. Another shows Director Russell Wiley greeting Governor Frank Carlson at the game.
A profitable year of study in Mexico is available to college students, according to word received from Benjamin W. Van Riper, executive secretary, College Year in Mexico, Inc. "The value of spending at least one college year in a foreign country as a part of one's formal education is now pretty thoroughly recognized by administrators everywhere," he said.
May Study At Mexico U
Mr. Van Riper said that the College Year in Mexico provides Spanish, art, and business courses supervised by the National University of Mexico. Its location is the new Hotel Hernan Cortes in Cuernavaca.
The spring semester will open on Feb. 7. A student may earn 15 hours credit during a semester. A room in the hotel, meals, instruction and professional supervision are included in the $750 semester fee, Mr. Van Riper said.
