Probe Inefficiency Not Free Discussion
Kansas did it, and now both Okla haoma and Colorado are going to investigate their state universities—for communists. As long as they must snoop, why not pick on the following type of instructors?
First, plenty of professors are so lax that a student can take and pass their courses without doing any independent thinking. Because he does not teach his students anything and is not respected by them.
Dictatorial teachers, furthermore, discourage any original thought by asserting that their views are the only correct ones. Any other opinion not agreeing with this type of intolerant instructor's view is absolutely wrong and not to be considered.
Armament Program To Bluff, Not Fight
Students being instructed by such lax, intolerant, and incompetent members of a faculty are more susceptible to the propaganda of communists and fascists than if an able professor mentions or even explains the principles of communism or fascism and challenges the student himself to decide what views he wishes to hold.
A string of degrees, moreover, does not insure an individual's ability to teach concomitantly. A class often wonders just what an instructor is trying to teach. Effective and effective teaching ability do not necessarily correlate.
No sufficient number of soldiers could be transported by planes to "mop up" or take possession of areas attacked. Nor could it be transported from bases with sufficient equipment to prevent the United States from mobilizing her trained reserves, including the National Guard, so that an adequate defense
The fact that the United States is on the brink of a great armament program is more significant in its military considerations.
careful analysis can give only one answer to the question of the vulnerability of the continental United States to European or Asiatic powers. Geographical location and the natural wealth of the United States render it impregnable to conquest by any foreign power even with the present "inadequate" army and navy. Although this is a day of "flying fortresses" and long range military aircraft of all kinds, it is inconceivable that any of America's potential enemies could launch an attack against this country with sufficient surprise or effectiveness.
While it is possible that a fleet of airplanes could span the ocean from Europe and even possibly Asia, it must be granted as true that such a force would be weakened by the length of the flight alone. The corps of the army are now known to have used this country against the few truly long range planes in existence in the world. Granting that such a force could escape defending planes and defending anti-aircraft, the utmost that could be accomplished be a questionable battle destruc tion for enemy forces at areas by explosive bombs and the terrorizing of a great part of the populace.
of the coast could be set up to pre-vent the landing of enemy troops, even if their transports were able to clude the United States navy.
The significance then of the armament program is not to be found in the military importance for the defense of the continental United
Rather the program is calculated to lend weight to the newly vigorous foreign policy of the United States. In assuming a strong voice in international affairs, the government of this country must possess physical strength sufficient to back its vocal expressions if it is to be influential in the game of world politics.
Social Security Number An Aid
Toppek, Kan., Jan. 31. — (UP)—William A. Murphy, director of the state unemployment compensation department, warned compensation claimants today to include their social security benefits in his department "or suffer unavoidable delay" in obaining their money.
"Inclusion of the social security number enables the correspondence section to locate data on the claimant's status for benefits by immediate reference to the proper files," the director explained. "Lack of the number necessitates delayed identification procedure."
Claimants who refer to their state social security account number are assured prom attention and the knowledge that mistaken identity will not delay their quest for information or benefit. Murphy added.

They used it the other night for one of the astronomy laboratory classes which wanted to look at the moon. Everybody had looked into it, but one young man hung back. "It's your turn next," Mr. Storer, the astronomist, informed him. "I don't want to," the student re-lied.
"Why not?" asked Professor Storer.
The boy glanced up at the rickety, high flight of stairs mistrustingly. "I've got aliphia."

Why is it that people say a student who works himself to death is all played out?

My! My! How times do change!
Only a few months ago the government was busy arresting foreign spies because they were stealing our military secrets. Now it seems that the government is handing over our military secrets grants to another group of foreign spies.
Many students have been running over to the city to see Alfred Lant and Lymn Fontaine scintillate in "Idiot's Delight". Some final-fagged freshmen think the play is being presented for their special benefit.
Jim Bell received his first fan letter yesterday, but instead of being pleased, he seems to think he is disgraced. Bell shouldn't take the matter so much to heart. He ought to read some of the things people say about columnists—and on paper, too.
The sports editor of the Fort Hays State College paper takes the Kansas to task for what he calls slurring remarks about Kansas State. We don't know anything about the slurring remarks, but we do know that if the sports editor of the Hays paper intends to take up everything he hears about Kansas State, he certainly has a job cut out for himself.

Thought for the morrow: Does anyone know the origin of the Campus expression "88"?
Since our contemporary on the front page has been lazing through final week by bribing people to appear as "guest conductors," we decided to try the same trick today in order to finish our final in what we kid ourselves into believing is a "blaze of glory." So in our most appealing manner, pauper of bon mots Joe Brown, purveyor of cherry phosphates, and the sage of Washington county refused to accept the honor. He claims he is giving his mind a complete rest during the interim of semesters, something that everyone agrees it needs. We made another attempt, but Jay Simon, Esquire, was buvy getting ready to transfer to Pittsylvania and already been deployed. Finally, we decided to do its ourselves. Today is this department's seventy-eighth anniversary, so if any irregular Italian verbs show up within its lines, blame it on old age and the Romance Language department.
There will be a lot of new faces on the Hill next semester but one familiar face, almost an institution, will be missing. We refer, of course, to the rubescent features of Joe Cochrane. Cochrane was the closest to the gentleman-and-scholar combination that Hoshington, Kansas, ever produced. Not for many a moon will we forget the afternoon we battled over a bridge table until the early hours of the evening, only to go down to glorious defeat at the hands of a couple of Kappa's who played contract for blood. Viva Cochrane, say we!
Safar Flying is Australia — (U.P) — "Story First" is the slogan adopted by the Minister of Civil Aviation who has purchased at a cost of $170-000 seventeen Adock Cathode direction finders. According to the ministry, no other country in the world has or contemplates such a widespread system of air navigation aids.
