PAGE TWO UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN. LAWRENCE. KANSAS WEDNESDAY SEPT. 27, 1938 Kansan Comment Council Limits Dance Passes University students will welcome and applaud the M.S.C. proposal to limit dance passes of Council members. The bill not only is a sensible move in the right direction; it appears to be an acceptable solution to a touchy problem. By providing that former M.S.C. members still in school may retain their pass privileges as long as they are students, the bill avoids any ex post facto stigma. But it sticks a firm club into the immediate future by making the provisions applicable to present members. The proposal does more than take away dance pass privileges from many political have-beens who do not deserve them. It encourages managers of student dances by increasing the paying possibilities of school parties. Final approval by the Council, however, is still to come. Student opinion demands an affirmative verdict. Pigs as well as men are martyrs in the current war. Ham on-the-hoof is being used to detect mines laid by Germans along the Moselle-Luxembourg sector. And pork-chops are almost too expensive to eat in America. Why Not Roast Domestic Chestnuts? Europe is at war. No one can doubt this statement. England and France have committed themselves to a long war, fighting, they say, to rid the world of Hitlerism. Hitler claims that now German's demands are satisfied, and the continuation of the war lies in the Allies' hands. Europe has fought almost constantly for the past four hundred years. The difference to America now lies in the fact that communication facilities keep us constantly aware of the situation, bringing it closer to our shores than in the days when the Napoleonic wars were a constant rumor. America does not need to become involved in European power politics. Foreign offices may call our attitude provincial and nationalistic, but it is the sane and logical attitude. American newspapers have filled their front pages for the past month with war news or war rumors. So long as we have propaganda for breakfast, we will have nervous indigestion and war-fright. War is news, but America is news herself. Forgetting our nation's problems and progress does not solve anything. Why let our house burn down while watching a neighbor's frantic efforts to save his burning barn? We are entering our tenth year of depression, the solution of this problem is more important to our national economy and society than the European squabble. On the League of Nations Index of Recovery, Great Britain stands near the top with the United States in twenty-sixth position. British expenditures for the past ten years have been mainly for armaments while America paid millions for relief, apparently war preparation is cheaper for England's national debt increased only 4.6 billion dollars compared to 27 billion dollars in this country. The W.P.A. strike this summer opened many eyes to the present relief situation. The sooner Congress, newspapers, and citizens turn their thoughts and actions toward America and her problems the sooner those problems will be solved. Why borrow trouble? The Good-year Tire Company recently received a $192,516 "educational" order for military gas masks. Perhaps this is a new type of extra-curricular activity. University Poll Demands Peace The trend of balloting in the Kansan's poll of the campus on neutrality demonstrates clearly that University students uncompromisingly want peace. A staggering majority of the voters indicate they would keep the United States forces at home, even though defeat looms for the European democracies. In the recent Gallup poll, 40 per cent of those interviewed favored direct help to England and France should a German victory appear likely. In sharp contrast, less than 25 per cent of the Kansan ballots would take such action. This does not mean that the preponderance of sympathy lies with the Nazis. Rather, it demonstrates that the desire for peace outweighs any feeling of "brotherhood" which may exist toward England and France. As the poll shows, student opinion is somewhat undecided on American neutrality policies. It is virtually an even split between embargo and "cash and carry." One factor that may contribute to the uncertainty, however, is that many are not sure just what is meant by "cash and carry" while they understand easily the effect of prohibiting the sale of airplanes and munitions to nations at war. The significant trend in regard to this is that most of the students who favor keeping America out of war also oppose the sale of war materials, even on a cash basis. Again, there is a definite expression of the sentiment for peace. Regardless of the outcome of the opinion poll, enthusiasm over the straw vote is heartening. The keen interest of students in the position of this nation should be welcomed as a sign of better days ahead for American democracy. On the average convicts read more than any other group with the exception of teachers. And the lucky convicts don't have to bother with unresponsive students! EDITOR'S NOTE.

Ceilings Irlk To The Editor: You know, as a green, wondering, awe-inspired freshman at K.U. I find myself forever gawking at ceilings and walls, and inspecting floors in all the great University buildings. My wandering eyes have been snapping pictures of these spaces, except in one instance. The other day while ceiling gazing at Chancellor Malat's inauguration in Hoch auditorium, I noticed several unsightly murs (from seeping rain water, I presure) on the ceiling board. After admiring the walls, the stage, the beautiful curved wall, the staircase, that ceiling just sort of left a bad taste in my mouth. Can't the University afford to fit the roof, or put a new ceiling board? After all, when such a trivial item as this murs the otherwise perfect first impression of a building is shown in photographs while it spends a little money on Hoch auditorium?

It doesn't matter. eldom bless his existence the obe day, and spent his life looking a the United States. Guide I. doesn't sound interesting, but it was For instance, he found out what there is no money in Kansas. Looking at the names of postdocs listen in the U. S. Guide, he found cash i six different states, a Dime Box ii Texas, a Nickel and Penny in Kentucky, Money in Mississippi, Silent in Texas, Mills in nine different states, but not a cent in Kansas. Looking for beverages he found Coffee in Virginia, Cognac in North Carolina, Tea in South Dakota, Waters in Michigan, Sherry in Wisconsin, Champagne in Illinois, and Wells in Kansas and Nebraska. Looking further, he found some towns apparently named by graduates of the Kansas State Agricultural College at Fitchburg, Wyo.; Where Stole Oka Pilford, Wichita; Wheatfield, Ind and the Kansas State macaulde, Wild Turning to movie actors and actresses, your reporter found them dissected. Basil was in Kansas, but Rathbone was in New York, Ronald was in Washington, but Coleman was in Oklahoma. Mar was in Washington, and Tom was in Arkansas, who was in Arkansas, and Bierie over in Mizzou. Tarzan was in Texas. By the way, if you are ashamed of the name bestowed upon your home town, read these and feel reassured. Some of the outstanding names of budding little metropolises were Cowpens, Battlesi, Cald; Cad, Gau; Rugless, Ky.; Ordinary, Ky.; Jigger, Lac, Head Heo, Vaughn, Hoo; Colpo, Cap Flat, Ma; Mul Lick, Ky; Old Trap, N.C.; Passadamusk, M.; Tee-ween, W.; Pike, K.; Powen, Va; Wahoon, Neh; Wopowong, Cunn; Loco, Oka; and Lissie, Scurry, Priddy, Petty and Hico in Texas. There must have been an earthquake in America sometime, or perhaps we can blame it on the glaciers of the Great Ice Age. Arizona was in Louisiana, Texas was in Kentucky, Tennessee was in Illinois, Michigan in North Dakota, Maine in Vermont, New York in Alabama, Oklahoma, and Ohio, and there was a Michigan Valley right here in the home state. The most popular name for a town seemed to be Marion, found in 28 different states. Troy, Washington, and Chester tied for second with 27. Camera Club Plans Expansion Plans for a greatly enlarged photography society discussed and decided upon by the K.U. Camera Club at their first meeting in the Memorial Union building last night. New plans that were decided upon are: Actual photographic experiments to be carried on at the meetings; photographic "scavenger hunts"; group discussions on various graphic topics of interest; and photo "topic" contests every month. The aims of the Club are to enable each to learn what his or her shortcomings are in photographic technique, the grouping of persons of the same interests for the purpose of discussion of their hobby, photography and to make a contact between the divergence of interest in photography. For mathematically minded persons, there is a Sixteen, Mont., a Six in West Virginia, Eighty-eight in Kentucky, Fort-four in Arkansas Seventeen in Ohio, and Seven-six in Missouri, Missouri, to mention only a few. The Club now has its own dairy room which can be used by the members for developing their pictures at the club. The Club is an enlarger and a printer. Irrigation Water Tests To Be Made A study of the ground water supply in the Scott county shallow water Edward Garin, c. 42, president of the Club; urged a more active interest of the members, Garish said, "The success of this organization depends on the work of the members in securing new members and a greater willingness to enter into the group discussions." area is being made by Herbert Waite of the United States Geological survey, as irration from wells here increased during the past ten years. A decided increase in the number of wells during the past two years has made the survey necessary and Waite's work will determine the extent of the shallow water area and the quantity of water that can be used for irrigation without being detrimental to the wells. The monthly allowance for the C.S.E.P. has been increased by the federal government to $5,625. This is an increase of $15 a month over last year's budget and will allow an average of $15 a month to each student. More specifically, it amounts to nine additional jobs for this year. Assign 375 Jobs On C.S.E.P.; Hike Allotment At present 375 students from 850 applicants in the C.S.E.P. have received jobs, Miss Martha Tillman, a public health officer for the local NYA office, stated Monday.

After the attendant sees our criminal mug, he be a sucker to trust us with anything. The water is either getting worse or we are getting unused to it again. THE FAIR-WARNING OR DON'T SAY WE TOLD YOU DEPARTMENT. Next year there is going to be a campaign for daylight-saving time on this campus. If John Ranholt Tye can fight for his Spanish poets, we can fight for daylight-saving. Poland is undergoing its fourth partition in modern times, which ought to prove that it's not so much a problem for the state than keeping them there that counts. Aside to the K-Club: The wearing by the green has practically ceased. The answer to the question "What's Europe got that we haven't got?" is something to fight about. POSITIONS WE DO NOT WANT: That of the office boy of the editors of "Time" who will have to open all those letters pointing out that, immediately after the magazine said that General Werner von Friesch was not at the front, a German notice was issued stating that he had just been killed in an action before Warsey.
