Kansan Comment
Detour
From War
Had a single optimistic note re-echored yesterday from the jubilation that sounded twenty-one years ago at the ending of the World War, it would have been a travesty on the tragic situation with which the world is faced. Armistice Day of 1939 sees the harvest of the seeds sowed at Versailles.
Today the United States walks again the precarious road that leads to war. Again the United States is needlessly blind when long run issues should be clear. War may not be inevitable for the United States, but if it is not to be inevitable, the country must turn from the path which it is following.
When the transfer of American ships to foreign registries follows the lifting of the embargo, when the news reels begin to show only one side of the conflict, when Americanism and Democracy are played up in those same news reels, when Allied sympathy creeps into the press, then the country is on the highway to war.
No one holds a brief for Hitler and the oppression for which he stands. The truth to remember, however, is that war with a specific government or individual alone is impossible. Any war with Hitler by the inherent nature is a war with the German people.
The social forces which created Hitlerism in Germany were formed at Versailles. Sympathy for the Allies should not camouflage the fact that there was a case for Germany in the last war and that there is a case for Germany in this war. Social, political, and economic chases produced Hitler. Is there any reason to believe that a twice-defeated Germany would be saved from the other Hitler at the hands of the Allies? The disillusion of the United States began at Versailles the last time. Must the country learn its lesson twice?
Granted that it is defeatist to say that we cannot stay out of war, it is equally wrong to minimize the gloom of the situation. The splendid isolation of an America, free and apart from the conflicts of Europe, a citadel of liberty may be a fantastic ideal, incompatible with the practicalities of the situation but splendid or not, isolation is preferable to war.
The steps which lead to war include financial involvement, emotional involvement, and political involvement. The three were not separated in the last war until post-war appraisement took place. They must be examined in examining the course of a government in a critical war period if the course of that government is to be understood and evaluated.
More rather than less stringent neutrality legislation is essential. Better and fairer public information is vital. Jingoism and war mongering can be defeated with accuracy of facts and information. Economic interests must be subordinated to human life. Political considerations must be superseded by common sense.
No miracle is going to keep us out of war. Anti-war sentiment alone cannot keep us out of war, although it may be a deterrent factor. This does not mean that there are not ways to keep out of war and easy ways with the mechanism of a democratic government. But they do require a turning back from the road on which the country has set out.
--for attending fractures. This treatment consists of removing foreign substance from the open fracture and enclosing the limb in a plaster cast without use of drug or antiseptic.
Armistice Day of 1939 has passed. Only its grim warning remains.
War Stimulates Medical Science
Conflict by bomb, shrapnel, and machine gun has one asset, for it offers doctors the largest experimental laboratory on earth. As in other war, the present European carrage provides unlimited research in the field. Not only must injured tissues undergo repair, but also diseased bodies. Civilians and soldiers gladly act as guinea pigs for a sympathetic staff of physicians and surgeons. The second World War may deal influenza its death blow according to a prediction of Lieutenant Colonel Hitchens of the University of Pennsylvania. Two remedies for influenza await mass trial. Should one of these cures prove successful, it will relieve the world of a common but dangerous sickness.
History of war medicine shows what energy doctors have put forth under stress. The story of yellow fever indicates that the Spanish American war served as a stimulus toward substituting a better treatment for a former one. During the World War, doctors contributed to the downfall of typhoid and to the advance of surgery of all kinds.
Investigation of medical practice in the late Spanish war reveals three important contributions to the science. A Spanish doctor perfected the Russian system of transferring preserved blood into the veins of dying men at the front. A nicotine acid came forth as a relief to victims of pellagra. And most significant to surgeons was the institution of a novel method
--for attending fractures. This treatment consists of removing foreign substance from the open fracture and enclosing the limb in a plaster cast without use of drug or antiseptic.
Medical science has proved that deepened necessity moves it faster than any other stimulus. The doctor's vigil does not end with peace. Neither does it shirk with the tremendous responsibility placed upon it by war. Against the many negative results of war, the advancement of medicine looms up as a positive gain.

In reference to William Allen White's article on the football situation we feel that he has unnecessarily degraded our Alma Mater. Mr. White seems to feel that K.S. men have more intellectual ability and brawn than B.C. men, and that several of K.S. men could make K.U. team, because K.U. has always had hifi scholastic standards.
Speaking of brawn the K.S. students were not spared even when no one was around to defend them. Even then they didn't get them all the way to Silo Tech. They needed their goal-post, but we immediately after our visit
Mr. White states that K.S.'s victory is as it should be. By this he implies that it is the usual thing for K.S. to beat KU, but statistics show that KU, has beaten KS. 22 times in 38 games, and tied 3 times.
It is very seldom that a coach's first year is high, successful, but we are confident that our coach will
We quote Mr. White: "Until the academicians of U. U. learn that the football championship should naturally belong to the State College at Manhattan, ... and if it fails, the sooner will in order in this state be restored."
Since in the past we have beaten them so many games and as this should be the only basis for company success, it is important to state statements. Of course if Mr. White wants to predict the future game results, it is his prerogative. Only time
The sooner these Silo technicians, grain grinders post pounder and pile drivers learn that football takes record of KU, against KS; 22 KU, won; KW, won 13. Against

Bing Campaigns For Alma Mater
Spokane. (UP)—If it weren't for cromer Bing Crow, one of the big independent colleges on the Pacific coast, Gonzaga University, might not have a football team next fall.
Crusby is an endearished alumnus of Gonzaga, so naturally he was putured when the institution's graduate manager, Claude McGraw, asked him if he would get more money they would be forced to suspend football in 1940.
The crooner received an organization formed in 1938, called the Bing Crosby-Gonzaga Associates. The headquarters of the club is at Hollywood. It's only purpose is to boost Gonzaga's revenue.
An initiation fee is charged each member of the club. Autographs of Crosby and the Bulldog's coach, John (Pungy) Hinton, and choice of a González home game games. Crosby's radio shows are given of members.
Gonzaga has been losing money on football steadily the last four years. Receipts at the gate were $30,000 below estimates during the period. The actual loss last season amounted to more than $4,000.
