Results of Investigation Should Satisfy All
The University administration and the Board of Regents are to be congratulated upon the methods and the results of their probe for "un-American" activities conducted by a special Regents investigating committee last year. The summarized report of their findings indicates what can be done by an impartial investigating body to allay unfounded suspicions when it functions without bias and in the interests of all concerned. Although suggesting that there may be some activity leaning both to the extreme left and to the extreme right at the University, the report declares, "However, we do not believe these activities are present in any greater degree than in other large universities."
It would be futile to contend—ostrich-like—that any public institution as large and as democratic as the University of Kansas will exist without a small percentage of thinkers whose ideas run contrary to those of the majority. Always in any place or at any time, there is a minority that refuses to let itself be run over by what it regards as the charitowheels of mass thinking. Usually the minority is vociferous in its demands and statements. However, as the report of the committee says, it would be the height of absurdity to condemn the entire school as "communicistic" because several of the students have "communicistic" leanings.
Furthermore, the investigating committee commending the whole-hearted co-operation given it by the University administration, specifically emphasizes that the investigation has not disclosed that any member of the faculty has exceeded his authority in teaching theories of government, and that no faculty member is affiliated with any leftist organization.
The fact that Ralph T. O'Neil, past national commander of the American Legion and one of the three original members of the committee, is sending his son here this fall as a freshman would indicate that at least one member of the committee is not worried as to the future of democratic instruction given by teachers here.
As for that part of the report relating to the Daily Kansan's stand in favor of the Loyalist government in Spain, we hasten to point out that the Kansan had excellent company in its defense of the legal Spanish government. Surveys show that not only do a host of responsible journals and foreign correspondents in this country uphold the Loyalist cause, but the state departments of the democracies themselves—England, France, and the United States—have consistently refused to recognize insurgent claims to be the legal government of Spain.
Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt, wife of the president, has never hesitated to show her sympathies for the Madrid-Barcelona government. William Allen White has repeatedly asserted a similar stand in his editorials. Westbrook Pegler, conservative columnist, has made his corresponding position clear, as have William Rose Benet, Edna St. Vincent Millay, Ernest Hemingway, and hundreds of other leaders of intelligent thought in America.
Although none of the present members of the Kansan staff were active on the paper when "these highly partisan editorials" were written, still, like our predecessors, we know about Spain only what we read in the papers, hear from the lips of recognized authorities on the subject, or glean from the writings of trained observers on the ground. These sources agree that the people of Spain are preponderantly willing to defend their existing government with their lives, and that the insurgent cause is motivated by medieval concepts of government and is kept alive solely by bayonets in the hands of Moorish pagans, and conscripts from the dictatorships of Germany and Italy. Can the Kansan then be said to have erred in choosing the loyalist cause as perhaps the lesser of two evils in the outcome of the Spanish dilemma?
But all this is incidental. The report of the investigating committee has been completed. We hope and believe that the results are satisfactory to all concern, that the stigma of "red" cast hastily and unthinkingly upon the campus of the State's largest university has at last been removed, and that the committee has spared the school the folly of an un-Ameircan witch-hunt.
Does Campus Harbor Marijuana Smokers?
How many "hop-heads" do you know?
"The Kansas City Star has charged that these (marijuana) cigarettes are being smoked by students in Kansas City high schools and the University of Kansas," says the current issue of Look magazine, under a picture of a
Comment
marijuana peddler arrested in Worcester, Mass.
Would that our accusers would be a little more explicit as to the sources of their information. The writer, who may or may not know Lawrence as well as any student on the Hill, has spent four years on the campus without meeting any "reefers" or even being offered a single "joy-smoke."
The accusation sounds very much as if it had been motivated by the same type of "enterprising" journalism which last year touched off the recently completed "red" investigation at the University.
Investigation of this latest charge against campus morals would probably reveal about the same degree of un-substantiation.
Campus Opinions-the WIFE.
Editor, University Daily Kansan;
The editorial, "Are Self-Supporting Students All Lairs," attracted my attention, and I have this statement to make, which, if the author of the article wishes, may be asow to as being the truth, the whole truth,
A few years ago we were faced with the fact that in order to attain the top rung of the ladder to success my husband would have to return to Kansas University and attend a graduate school, so each time something better in the way of a promotion was available, the question always was asked. "You can become a professor at Kansas University always negative, we decided to do something about it."
But the author of the editorial took out eight hours each day for sleep. I cannot recall that my husband has ever had eight hours of sleep, except an occasional Sunny afternoon. If we had to go to bed for beer, a movie is attended once in every six weeks if we eat beans to make up for the extra expenditure; we never invite or entertain guests except on Saturday or Sunday. We are often on summer (I admit he did not feel like doing it) my husband worked to earn the money necessary to meet the oncoming enrollment fees in the spring and the long weeks of lost sleep, penalty pinching and starvation," he worked during his Christmas vacation and also Thanksgiving, has already made his plans for doing that same thing.
My job of keeping the home comfortable, quiet during study hours, orderly, and serve good, wholesome nourishing food and most of all keep his spirits and courage built up, has been an experience that has taught me to appreciate the value of a meal as the author of that article) if that the lettuce under a salad is not eaten it can be served shredded for the next meal, that a fifty cent roast will be delicious as a hot meat dish the first day, as cold sliced roast the second day, then after one day in the refrigerator while a vegetable plate is served, it will make a delicious meat platter.
It has taught me that I can remodel a dress that has been torn. I am not going to wear it very becoming dress and (more shocked) the coat I wear into the largest church in the city was given to me, and was remodeled by me two years ago. Yes, I are wearing
But I can assure the doubtful author that I have had more fun in the past year, and I am enjoying life so much, that I would not trade places with the wealthiest person on the Hill.
Next June when the seniors move slowly down that long Hill, there will be one wearing a cap with an orange tassle who has been chosen freshman honor student, who has made one honorary fraternity, was on the dean's honor roll, and last spring among the honor students. The students self-supporting." And I am very proud indeed to be.

Women Offer Diverse Opinions on W.S.G.A
**AGENT**
For two weeks the roving repsite has been approaching various Hill women to ask the rather delicate question, "What do you think of the W. S. G. A., and does it function as self-government?" Representative answers have been chosen for publication. The survey, however, does not pretend to be representative for women were chosen at random for the literary building at the mortal Union library, and various Hill "spots."
Women who gave their opinions might be divided into classes, Class A—whose names precede their answers, and Class B—ho for various reasons preferred to have their names unknown. Class A—ho for
Bv Agnes Mumert. c'40
Margaret McCoy, c39: "I really do not know an awful lot about it. I think the W. S. G. A. is a good thing to have. Since most of the girls turn out for elections, the offices are representative"
Dorothy Houston. c 39: "I think the girls have pretty much to say about governing themselves—that is, girls in sororites or dorms. It is a different matter for girls living in rooming houses, however."
Karene Ogle, c'41; "I don't think we have self-government, and from talking with other girls on the job that has made them feel they the same way about it."
Ruth German, c. 39: "I don't think the W. S. G. A. does much. I suggest they get down to business. There aren't enough students who know enough about the organization. They look up to those who make the rules without realizing they could have a part in it."
Mildred Evenson, c41: "Independent students should be elected to W. S. G. A. offices. but I don't believe they ever have been. If it's going to be self government, the women represented instead of just groups."

Try as we would like to, we can make no excuses for the base-horn player who left for Washington and Chicago. We should tell T. O. should know better than that.

A man in the western part of Kansas, The Scott City Chronicle relates, says that nothing good came from ending his son to college except that it caused the boy's mother to quit ragging about him.
Harold Addington, editor of this paper, is in Wisconsin, ostensibly at a journalism convention, so we have no fear of him wielding the blue penel on our copy this morning. But we'll like to throw an orchid to Adl for his sell article in the first issue of this magazine. The latter articles have been written for that magazine, but we've never read them.

On second thought, the number of orchids we we've tossed today amazes us. We must be slipping or maybe we've seen the light. Everything is all sweetness and light. Pollyanna the Glad Girl—that's us.
Helen Hoffman, c. 39: "We have self government to a certain extent. It is limited. I don't believe independent women are represented as much as morality women."
No. 1, Class B, who was interviewed in front of the library, says, "Our house representative announces that there is going to be a meeting of the W. S. G. A. and then reports what we think will happen to link the organization does a thing."
Anonymous Opinions
No. 2 was definitely critical: "Frankly, I can't think of a thing that the W. S. G. A has done that affects me personally. What have they done besides have to tears? And the elections! When I get a ballot they asked me what house I belonged to, and then put a number in red pen on it, if the girls have these numbers, so it's able to check up on how each house voted. I believe they did this in the dorms, too. Four houses worked together last year, but the combines are entirely different this fall. At the Freshman Commission election many of the houses sent their upperclass pledges to vote. Then they voted twice by tearing their ballots in two. Oh, yes, my house gave me an entire list of girls to vote for."
Remark Lack of Interest
No. 3, a freshman, believes that "Many of the rules are made more because of opinion than because of what the students want or need, so how could you call it self-government? The W. S. G. A. apparently loves the Hill and loves many girls on the Hill know much about the organization."
No. 4, talked casually while having dinner in one of the Hill "dives," "I think the W. S. G. A. is a good organization to a certain extent," she doesn't think the girls have taken enough interest in it, especially new girl's.
No. 5 says: "The theory of the organization is remarkable, but that is about as far as it goes. I think women should be trained to think for themselves and to realize that they will have to make their own decisions about turning out their work and staying out late when they get out of college. If a woman is over 21 and a senior in college, and can't make such personal decisions, when she is going to be able to?"
