Letter to the Editor
In a recent speech to advertising men in New England, Elon G. Borton, advertising director of LaSalle Extension University, advocated a recall of the idea of free enterprise—the American Way of Life, he called it—to the public. Extremely fearful of increased governmental control after the war, Mr. Borton believes advertisers can counteract the trend by selling "free enterprise" to the 130,000,000 American people.
In case Mr. Borton doesn't already know it, his idea is not new. In fact, it has been practiced ever since business men began howling about governmental control. Only recently, however, has the advertising campaign been intensified.
Magazines and newspapers carry full page ads expressing the hope that "our boys overseas may come back to the America they knew, and the American Way of Life," and stating that "America's Fifth Freedom is Freedom of Enterprise." Advertisers able to buy full page ads are intensely interested in impressing on the public's minds that free enterprise made America the powerful nation she is today.
Mr. Borton has a new angle, though, in advising advertisers against using the abstract phrase of "free enterprise" and in emphasizing that the people must be given the facts, "simply, truthfully and
Rock Chalk Talk
Food: Anna Mae Johnston, Miller hall, has nearly recovered from her Sunday evening "lunch" which consisted of (consumed in the order mentioned): fried shrimp on toast, olives, pickles, ginger ale, rhubarb pie, ice cream with chocolate sauce, and peanuts. Anna Mae probably rates second to Jac Nodler, Kansan news editor, who makes Dagwood Bumstead look like a sissy when she polishes off a self-styled "Mamie" sandwich—reading from bottom up—bread, mayonnaise, fried egg, bacon, lettuce, catup, peanut butter, jam, mustard, and bread.

Her only comment: A happy shriek of agony: Phyllis Riggs, 607 Louisiana, a typical occupational therapist, after seven weeks of human anatomy (OT variety) has finally touched a cadaver.
Stressing the Practical: Jay "Senator" Gunnels, 1603 Louisiana, received one of these "practical" gifts the other evening from Nadine Pot-
If the advertisers do as good a job on this as they have done on their products, and the American public is as easily influenced by fancy words and phrases as it has proven itself before, the manufacturers behind the campaign should have quite good luck with their political strategy which they clothe in an appeal to "Our American Way of Life."—A Student.
persuasively." It will be very enlightening to learn the true facts about free enterprise. Evidently Mr. Borton knows that some people are just a little distrustful of what is behind the phrase, "free enterprise." Some people think of it as the system which allows a few men to monopolize industries and set prices and to put other men out of business.
But there can be no doubt about it, the advertisers will continue to do their utmost to sugarcoat "Our American Way of Life." The campaign has been carefully planned and is backed by the tidy sum which members of the National Association of Manufacturers have left after they have paid their taxes.

ter, Westminster hall—an address book. It's a little unhandy to pack the K. U. directory around—and then there's no room for comments between names. The Senator will be remembered as founder of last year's "Wolves Unlimited" society. Some girls have this fact so well in mind that Gunnels finds it necessary to hire a chaperone for his dates . . . this, too, is practical—but expensive.
Roll Dem Bones: The Victory Speakers trip to Kansas towns was a profitable one for DG sophomore, Patty Creel. Thy say she plays a mean game—and for cold cash.
Doctor, try Dr. Pepper: Dr. C. F. Nelson, professor of biochemistry, stopped at an out-of-the-way gas station the other day and decided to enjoy a bottle of coke while his car was being serviced. The station man, not having any cokes on hand, proceeded to give Dr. Nelson a five-minute health lecture on the superiority of Dr. Pepper.

L. P. Cookingham, city manager of Kansas City, Mo., while in Lawrence yesterday to speak to campus groups on city government, was provided a sample of Lawrence government when he was given a red ticket for illegal parking.
Cookingham Uses Own Parking Ticket To Illustrate Speech
The court would not permit the guest to pay a fine, although he insisted, but they did let him take the stub from his ticket which he later used as an illustration in his speech to show how dishonest persons could beat the courts out of fines after the first one was paid.
The reason: the tickets are not duplicated numbered.
