PAGE TWO UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS THE KANSAN COMMENTS Dr. Barnes Advises More Social Control Dr. Harry Elmer Barnes improved upon General Sherman's definition of war in his discussion yesterday afternoon in the Kansas room, stating that "war is an anachronism." Further, "it is the extreme example of cultural lag." If we use our science to kill off people more and more effectively, we will lose our civilization, predicted Dr. Barnes, and we will lose it much faster than did the Greeks and Romans, unless we bring it under social control. We have allowed our science and technology to get ahead of us, while our social institutions have remained archaic and inharmonious with the modern civilization, pointed out Dr. Barnes in explaining the reason for the cultural lag. There are only two ways out of this lag, according to Dr. Barnes. The bridge between advanced science and primitive social institutions can be made rationally and gradually by intellectual leadership and by education, or if modern reform is no longer adequate, there is revolution. The first way is preferable, of course, but Dr. Barnes warns that we may have waited too long and have "flunked by default." Education must be linked with social process to achieve this evolution, but since the educational institutions are among those that are most backward, it is a case of the blind leading the blind, Dr. Barnes pointed out. Therefore, the salvation of civilization lies in building up the social sciences to the level of scientific and technological progress. YMCA Members to Plan Program at Mass Meeting Members of the YMCA will have an opportunity to suggest a program the Y can sponsor for the coming year at a mass meeting of the YMCA at 4:30 Monday afternoon in the Union lounge, Thornton McClannahan, president of the YMCA, announced today. McClannahan urges members to bring all their ideas. NURSERY---everyone takes a half-hour nap. The rest period is followed by fruit juice and cod liver oil, and then by outdoor play until 11:30 am. when lunch is served. Then there is a long nap period until 3 or 3:30 p.m. After that the children eat and then play in or out of doors until their mothers call for them. Federal Aid to School continued from page one) Cost to the parents for this service is $3.50 a week for each child. This amount does not cover the actual expense of caring for the children, the remainder of the cost being made up by grants from the federal government in the interests of speeding war production. Miss Mary Elizabeth Evans, director, and three other full-time teachers instruct and care for the children with the aid of eight home economics students. WAR--paradoxes in our thinking that we must get rid of before we can make a good peace, said Dr. Barnes. One is our "lynching bee" complex. War can't be stopped by killing off international criminals, however villainous they may be. The real criminal is the war system. It has been perpetuated by the Versailles treaty and the Kellogg pact. Now we are (continued from page one) Rock Chalk Talk FRIDAY, DECEMBER 3, 1943 By BEVERLY BOHAN Borrowed Bar—from the Gamma Phil's who borrowed it from the Phi Bete's to provide atmosphere for an El Rancho party in honor of rushees. After fulfilling its purpose, the bar, deposited on the front porch, mysteriously disappeared. The Phi Bete's became querulous; the girls worried and suspicious. Finally one night, a hooded figure in the form of Shirley Henry presented itself at the Phi Gam-SAE door and demanded to see Mrs. Oakes, house-mother. Vic Costello, answering the summons, was quickly overwhelmed and La Shirley stamped through the house loudly calling for Mother Oakes. When that played out, she declared her intention of buying the house, so naturally she had to look it over. Meanwhile, sisters in the bond surrounded the house, soon discovered the worthy bar in the Annex, and gently bore it homeward—which story leaves little to surmise as to the long-debatable function of the Annex. For the records—we think is this episode from Mr. Howey's V-12 economics class. Mr. Howey was holding discussion, in the course of which he asked V-12 Illgner the same question Illgner had answered successfully the previous day. After careful and ponderous consideration, our hero replied, "Why, Mr. Howey, don't you know the answer to that? I just told you yesterday." While at the game—Wednesday night, a lull from the half brought considering an international police force to perpetuate it. Suggests Cooling-off for Year Dr. Barnes is against a harsh peace and the unconditional surrender policy set forth at Casablanca. These threats hanging over the enemy will have a psychologically bad effect on them. He blames Nazism in Germany upon the harshness shown the Germans after the last war. "The more moderate, reasonable, and modest peace given, the better it will be. People must have social justice and security for a basis of world peace. Once people have a stake in peace, there will be peace. A cooling-off period of one year after the war would lead to a better peace. We need to plan now for the peace. So far, Uncle Joe is the only one who seems to be planning, and we don't like his plans." Must Accept Russian Government The abolishment of international cartels, nationalism, and imperial- forth the following chant from a cluster of male spectators: Two-bits, six-bits, eight bits, a dollar What's the matter with the cheerleaders Why don't they holler! This verse was obviously devised for appearance's sake when one considers the figures cut by the new cheerleaders. "True love" brings to mind a picture of Betty Lo Perkins stamping the last letter after a long evening of correspondence catching-up. A glance at the stack of letters showed in sequence ensign, captain, lieutenant, and on the very bottom, Apprentice Seaman Danny Bachmann, (fliance). *** As a last tribute—to Reed Whetstone, the dead man of the Phi Psi badge, whose coffin was on order, whose chair was for rigor mortis to set in, who never moved for the six months he lived in the Psi house. Last Tuesday afternoon when the Psi's were scheduled for a football game seven team members had a sudden call from Uncle Sammy. On this momentous day, ailing but courageous Reed played a sterling game at right end in honor of his departed brethren, collapsing immediately thereafter and remaining in a coma. Last night his sorrowing brothers called in an osteopath to view the remains, meanwhile donning the robes of mourning and preparing his epitaph: "We know not when he passed, but we loved him all the same." *** ism are part of Dr. Barnes scheme for a peaceful future. He would have the world divided into regions having the same economic functions and geographical boundaries. These would include the British isles, Scandanavia, Central Europe, Russia, the Balkan states, and a region composed of Spain, Portugal, and France. He does not believe we are ready for a world federation yet. He advocates a federation of Canada with the United States. "We must conquer our anti-Russian feelings. We will have to accept her form of government, because she will not change it. There is no possible coalition that could conquer Russia. Already the British Tories are making plans to get the aid of Germany against Russia after the war. Russia will be busy for ten or fifteen years after the war building her country up again, but eventually will try for a world revolution," Dr. Barnes said. ★★ INDEPENDENT LAUNDRY AND DRY CLEANERS BUY WAR BONDS 740 Vermont Phone 432 LaGuardia Charges Federal Food Waste Washington, (INS)—M mayor F. H. LaGuardia of New York City charged the Senate Banking and Currency Committee today that government bungling of the food program is causing almost unlimited waste of many basic commodities through spoilage. "In New York alone, food costs have gone up 39 per cent since 1941 and the increased prices makes purchases prohibitive," the mayor said.
