Jakosky Sees Changed World
J. J. Jakosky, dean of the School of Engineering, spoke to the Rotary club of Kansas City yesterday at its luncheon in the Hotel Muelebach.
Dean Jakosky predicted that the trained administrator and technician will be the man of tomorrow. Because all nations are tending toward managerial governments, the outcome of the present war will be to determine whether "despicable management" or "democratic management" will reign. Asking "what way of life is indicated by basic changes in our social order," Dean Jakosky outlined four trends already underway which might answer this question.
"First, labor has increased its political and economic power through the ballot, but the worker's relative importance as a laborer has declined because of the advance of machinery.
"Second," the dean pointed out, "capitalists cannot stand the high tax regulations and will be replaced by skilled technicians running the big industries."
"Third, more profit-sharing will be adopted, for labor and capital have increasingly identical viewpoints.
"Fourth," Jakosky predicted, "more government spending, with specialized managers to do much of administration planning."
Dean Jakosky emphasized, "the chief reason why agriculture at present generally is unprofitable is because it is such an inefficient manufacturing industry." He suggested the solution lies in some type of collective farming, on a cooperative basis, and bigger farms.

Zanzig To Speak On Music Advancement
Mr. Augustus D. Zanzig, of Washington D.C., now employed by the treasury department of the U.S. government in organizing and advancing the use of music throughout the country in the war effort, will visit the University on Tuesday.
While here Mr. Zanzig will meet members of the School of Fine Arts music faculty, and music directors in the city school at a luncheon from 12:30 to 2:00 p.m. in the Old English room of the Memorial Union building. He will speak at this gathering, and during the day will meet and speak to the choral clinic class and seniors in public school music under Dr. Otto Miessner. At 4:30 the same afternoon, he will attend a rehearsal of the University a capella choir under Dean D. M Swarthout.
Mr. Zanzig was for many years in charge of the music work of the National Recreational Association, and has appeared frequently on the program of the Music Teacher's National Association and other large musical groups. He is the author of a number of books on music and its place in community work.

SAILORS, DANCERS----

gave an example of the old-fashioned pre-Martha Graham style of dancing to the melody of the "Blue Danube Waltz." The waving of and swirling of long, flowing dresses constituted the dance. The choreography was the creation of Jean Bliss, director of the ballet troupe.
Ferde Grofe's "On The Trail" gave color to the program. Don Michel played the violin solo, Anabel Keeler, harp, Wade Fite, obe, and Doraden Perry, trombone.
The climax of the program came with the entrance of the sailors' chorus to the tune of "Anchors Aweigh." As the color bearers came in at the head of the procession, the audience rose and remained standing until the chorus was in position and had sung, "Here Comes the Navy," to the piano accompaniment of Melvin Zack.
The evening closed, as it had begun, with the National Anthem. Mr. E. Thayer Gaston, assistant professor of public school music, led the audience in one verse while the sailors stood at attention.
Determined to get Improvement
Treece Warns Students
Several complaints have been received, Walker reported, some from those who remembered the epidemics which broke out during the last war when similar conditions existed. Dr. E. L. Treece, associate professor of bacteriology, told his students that the greatest threats for future epidemics were cholera, which has broken out in Missouri. During the last war the most devastating epidemic was that of meningitis.
Walker is an official recently added to the health unit staff. Since he has taken office, he has enforced the laws concerning garbage and trash disposal and has required that all outdoor toilets be torn down and reconstructed according to government specifications. He is determined that there will be a reform in the restaurant conditions.
Walker mentioned no eating places in particular, though he said, "There are two up on the Hill which, I understand, need investigating."
Following a preliminary investigation, Lawrence eating establishments have been given two weeks in which to clean up, according to a statement by Joe L. Walker, sanitarian for the Douglas county health unit. Walker said that there had been previous warnings which certain establishments had chosen to ignore. The situation has reached beyond city violation as the Navy men who take meals out during the weekend leave are involved. "Army and Navy authorities elsewhere have put such places out of bounds." Walker said.
Health Officer Warns Lawrence Eating Places
"If there isn't some improvement in sanitation, especially in dishwashing," he began, then lapsed out of his temporary threatening attitude, and said that he was certain that there would be improvements. What he said concerning the two week probationary period completes his warning. He admitted that it was "sort of a one-man job," and added, "I would appreciate any cooperation or any report on existing conditions."

Missionaries Evacuated... Former Student Returns From Chinese War Front
By Lucille Kadel
Three years of association with the Japanese in conquered Chinese territory has been experienced by a University graduate, Miss Ruth Daniels, recently returned from China after working 22 years in the missionary service.
While in China, Miss Daniels was connected with a school in Nanchang, about 90 miles south of the Yangtze river. During the invasion, the educational system underwent drastic change, said Miss Daniels. painted the word 'diplomat' in large white letters."
"There was only one high school left in the city. The other schools had been moved to safer areas. All of our school buildings, except the dormitory, were transformed to serve the wounded soldiers. Students had an opportunity to help the wounded. Girls wrote letters for the soldiers, gave programs, and did mending. Care for the soldiers was done after school hours." School was continued until the summer of 1938, when it was moved to the south," she continued.
Missionaries and Diplomats Leave.
The invaders took missionaries, and the diplomatic corps to Shanghai and gave them passage on ships. It was June when the ship left Shanghai. Not until August did Miss Daniels arrive in New York
When asked if the Japanese demanded that she and the other missionaries evacuate, Miss Daniels answered, "The Japanese asked if we wished to leave. We said 'no.' After several such opportunities, when the United States and Japan were at war, the Japanese gave us military orders to leave."
"Our guaranteed safe passenger ships were the only ones on the whole ocean that were lighted at night. White electric crosses were on the ends of the ship, and on one ship, was
Madame and Generalissimo Chiang Kai-shek made their headquarters during 1932 in Nanchang where Miss Daniels was working. She know them both, and remarked that "wherever they went, they won the people with their earnestness and sincerity," she explained.
The importance of the American missionary work was stressed when Miss Daniels told that the respect which the majority of the Japanese showed toward her and her friends was the result of their knowledge and experience with the American missionaries in their country.
"About ten years ago, the Generalissimo requested through the League of Nations advisers to help build the Chinese government. German advisers helped build the army. Denmark started a cooperative movement to help combat Communism. America gave health advice. Some of the Germans who helped, were not followers of Hitler, and regretted having to leave China," Miss Daniels said.
Missionary Work Important
Miss Daniels concluded, "There are good people in Japan, just as there are here. The reconstruction after the war must be made by cooperation with, not domination of, the good people here in this country. Otherwise, there will be another war."
