PAGE TWO UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS WEDNESDAY. APRIL 26. 1939 Kansan Comment 'Music Hath Charms--' As the annual music festival got under way at the University this week, appropriately one of our own alumni spoke to the Mount Oread student body about the fine arts and their use in everyday life. Karl Krueger's convocation address furthered the realization that music week is intended to benefit all of us, that it is not planned exclusively for the few hundred students of the fine arts department. Karl Krueger, one of the most distinguished and brilliant musicians in the Middle West, has during the last decade directed many of the great orchestras of the world. Particularly significant, then, was his tribute to the fine arts as a cultural force. Mr. Krueger expressed the wish that more people should actually enjoy art. And art, like fresh air, should be enjoyed daily. The orchestra director bemoaned the fact that many persons consider music to be exotic and impractical. Music, far from exotic in its nature, has a real and personal meaning for every person that loiters in its presence. Two kinds of music lovers—those who play and those who listen—pay tribute to its charms. Most of us who fall into the category of just listeners can do most to promote the art. In spite of grade points and term papers and the lack of sleep, every student can afford to spend some time listening to good music. Listening to good music might even get to be a habit—a pleasant habit that would add enjoyment to life. And a good way to discover the amenities of life is to attend some of the music week programs. What Price Co-Education? There are only three girls in the University. Search the jelly-joints and other mating-spots and you will find that there are more women per cubic coke than there are suitable men to escort them—but talk to them for a few enlightening moments and you will realize what we mean. They can all be classified under three standard types and each type is as unexciting as a second honeymoon at Niagara Falls. There is the Fad girl. Her technique is based on the theory that everything new is best whether it is a slang phrase or a crazy new bonnet. This is all right in moderation, but a monologue consisting of nothing but trivia sprinkled with "honestly" and "86" is pretty trying after a hard morning in class. Then the clotheshorse angle is hard on Dad's pocket-book and probably worries her prospective husband. She may grow up some day. There is the Kareer-Mad girl. She is the intelligent, intent type engrossed with her dietetics or biochemistry. This is well and good, but must she constantly rub in the glamor of her life-work on any unsuspecting man who happens to mistake her for a different species. Finally there is the I Just Adore Men type. She is at least sincere. She came to college to marry and she admits it. She goes to classes to meet men; she is a social butterfly and loves flitting. All the girls not in this class either by choice or qualification nevertheless envye these carefree sisters. They have fun. Gosh darn girls anyway. And here it is spring. Palestine Problem Awaits Solution Aboard the steamer Assimi, somewhere at sea, are 270 Jewish refugees who were forced to leave Haifa, a port in Palestine, because they had no legal passports. Some 250 more Jews await a decision on their right to stay in the country. Today these people have no home, for they have been pushed from the totalitarian states and are acceptable in no country. What is England going to do about the situation in Palestine? Some policy, with a definite purpose and a strict adherence, must be formulated. Recently a conference made up of representatives of the English, Jews, and Arabs met in London. The result was nothing but bickering. The Arabs demanded control on the basis of population majority. The Jews demanded more territory and freedom from Arab domination. England suggested a compromise which was unsatisfactory to both Jews and Arabs. The English policy in Palestine has been anything but creditable. Time and again Britain has broken promises to both Arabs and Jews, leaving the air filled with hatred and mis-understanding. Action by Great Britain has been too slow and drawn out to allow any satisfactory settlement, leaving only an indefinite policy into which the country has been unable to co-operate. Because England is involved in European difficulties and because the Jewish problem of settlement is growing more tense, a strict Palestine policy is necessary at the moment. This policy should aid the Jews as well as give consideration to the Arabs. But above all it should be fair and tolerant. If Professors Could Only Speak-rope. Their fracas concerns us little." What college classes need is professors who not only know their subjects but can share this vast knowledge with their abysmally ignorant students instead of merely confusing them with a jumbled harangue in a monotonous monologue. Professors may be experts in their field but if they cannot shed some of their brilliance through the medium of clear concise English, they are failures as teachers. College professors admittedly repeat lecture notes year after year until they reach that ultimate rut known as stagnation. Students enroll with varying degrees of enthusiasm in their various courses, and the popular professor is the one with the "gift of gab." The professor who draws the students is the one who can talk intelligently and enlighteningly. Professors should have the same nature. Professors should hear themselves as others hear them. It is about time for some other territorial change in Europe. The map-makers have caught up again. Many persons will be in favor of the Brookings Institution's recommendations of wide tax changes by the Federal government. Provided, of course, the revisions change the taxes to somebody's shoulders.

Laban, c'29 When radio news commentator Boake Carter blew into town the other day mines a microphone, to air his pete拿 at a Kansas Rotarian convention the Daily Kansan sent a humor editor to find out what it was all about. But to the short, stocky, and red musotted owner of the radio voice that has held "American" elvers gured to receiving sets during 'countless coast-to-coast hook-ups'—it was far from funny. Editorial Staff U.S. Has Little Freedom Of Speech, Says Carter Since October of last year Boake Carter has flown 45,000 miles over the country speaking to audiences in key cities. Business Manager Edwin Browne Advertising Manager Orman Wanamaker Publisher ... Harold Addington "There is little freedom of speech in this country today," drenched curly haired Boake Carter in his characteristic British accent. "It is not very far from Europe's dictators—when the Federal Radio Commission sees to it that all commentators who do not agree on the policies of the present administration get put off the air." INSPIRED FOR NATIONAL ADVERTISING BY National Advertising Service, Inc. College Publishers Representative 420 MAUVIGNA AVE. NEW YORK, NY 10022 In speaking to the former Harvard professor, who was born in Russia and brought up in the atmosphere of the British foreign office where his father served in the diplomatic corps, it was easy to sense his resentment toward the Roosevelt administration. He feels that political policy does not warrant the censorship which he charges is placed upon the three major American radio chains. How much does this impact upon the fact that $3 per cent of the United newspapers ignore or criticize New Deal measures. "The only radio chain in the country exercising free speech at present is the Texas network which is managed, ironically enough, by Elliot Roseveil, the President's son," said the commentator. Subscription rates, in advance, $3.00 per year, $1.75 per semester. Published at Lawrence, Kansas, daily during the school year except Monday and Saturday. Entered as second class student at Lawrence, office at Lawrence, Kansas, under the Act of March 3, 1879. May Appoint 24 Reserve Officers When asked about the *possibility* of an European war, the radio voice said, "I don't look for an European war, but in the event that it does happen, I will inform you." If we ignore or critically analyze all propaganda that comes out of Europe. Their fracas concerns us little." Each man will receive two weeks training as a reserve officer between June 17 and 30. Those in the coast artillery will be sent to Ft. Sheridan, III, and those in the infantry will be trained at Ft. Leavenworth. Twenty-four members of the senior class in R.O.T.C. are expected to receive appointments as second lieutenants and Chief Corps of the United States Army. The men expected to receive appointments to the coast artillery are: James G. Bounds, e'40; Robert B Doollitt, e'40; Warren K. Fisher, b'39; Jesse E. Gamber, e'39; Myron L. Harries, e'40; Lester A. Haug, b'39; Ray G. Lawrence, e'29; Jot McCoy, e'40; Ots O. Perkins, e'40; Wilton Steele, e'40; James H. Sund, b'39; Martin K. Thomen, j'40; Dale W. Whitaker, c'40; Joseph A. Zishka, e'40.

Symposium In a further comment Carter said, "Russia, Italy and Germany are nothing more than a gang of thieves. They'll take what they can get from anywhere. Yet there is no reason for the United States to enter the scrap and make the world safe for anything." Perhaps the Kanan reporter took the wrong courses in economics but he thought that the Rome-Berlin split was a great deal to do with future America. "One of the best ways for the United States to remain out of war, European or otherwise, is to strive for a free international exchange of ideas and an attempt to keep emotion out of the news," he said. Sessions will be held in the University's new Student Union building. Arrangements have been made to take the delegates on tours of the psychological laboratories, the child development station on the campus, and the university museum, and the state capital building. This would be a good trick even if we don't do it. But it might be a little more than a matter of coincidence that Boake Carter is a nationally known news commentator for other reasons than his gripping and emotionally distinctive radio voice. The convention, held May 5 and 6 in Lincolne, is expected to be attended by more than four hundred psychologists from universities and colleges in the East and Middle West. Doctor Raymond H. Wheeler, of the department of psychology, will preside at a symposium on "Façer Analysis" May 6, when the fourteenth convention of the Midwest Psychological association meets on the campus of the University of Nebraska.
