Kansan
We Sit on a Desert Island Untouched by Public Funds
This fall campus dailies over the United States carry banner announcements of new college and university building programs made possible by PWA funds used in conjunction with state appropriations.
Recently, the Kansan carried a partial list of these building programs which included a new music building at a San Jose Teacher's College in California; a new physical science building and an administration building for the school of business at the University of Indiana; a natural history museum at the University of Minnesota; and new student dormitories at North Carolina, Indiana, Minnesota, and Oklahoma A. and M.
Meanwhile at the University, music practice rooms continue to be sandwiched between business and political science classes until the noises competing for students' attention often drown the sound of the lecturing professor's voice.
The department of chemical engineering and School of Medicine have so far overflowed their inadequate buildings that the engineers and medics travel from one end of the campus to the other to find classroom space. Administrative offices of the School of Business have been compressed into a newly partitioned room in the basement of Frank Strong hall to make room for business school classes.
Dyche Museum of Natural History continues to be closed indefinitely for want of further repairs while its valuable exhibits turn to dust and mould in cubic-hole houses, closets, and under the stadium. Independent students continue to be housed in antique rooming houses, where they pay high rents for inadequate facilities and insufficient service.
In view of these conditions, it is more than regrettable that the flood of public building funds watering other campuses continues to flow carefully around "Lawrence on the Kaw," buoying Mamut Ordell like a desert island—high risk and entrenched by its biosafety.
Will Congress Follow Dictates of Public Opinion
With European diplomacy limping these days and perilously close to slipping into a war pit at times, the American Neutrality Act assumes a prominent place in the list of measures on the roster of the next session of the United States Congress. Seventy percent of the American people believe that American participation in the World War was a mistake (American Institute of Public Opinion figures). Consequently, Congressional consideration of the Neutrality Act should be with an eye to keeping Uncle Sam out of another foreign war.
If these persons advocating less discretionary power for the Chief Executive are recognized in their desire, it follows that the "cash and carry" clause will be renewed when it expires in May, 1939. This clause says to beligert powers. "If you want any war supplies in the United States, boys, you geta pay cash and ship them in your own boats." Shipping munitions in American bottoms might easily lead the United States into another war and 95 percent of America votes—KEEP OUT OF ANOTHER WAR.
The main burr in the legislators' toupees is the first problem—that of discretionary powers for the President. If the boys in Washington put their finger on the public pulse and act accordingly, they will discover that 69 percent of the people favor stricter neutrality legislation while 31 percent want to extend the President's discretionary powers. The 69 percent point to the Far Eastern War as an argument that Neutrality should be made mandatory, whether a formal declaration of war has been drawn up or not.
What America wants and what it thinks it can get are two different things. Although 95 percent of the people want to stay out of war, only 57 percent believe that the United States could remain neutral if France and England should engage in war with Germany. The stricter the neutrality legislation, the better the chances of peace is the argument.
Glancing at a few more pertinent figures from the Institute poll, we see that 65 percent of the people sympathize with England and France, 3 percent favor Germany, and 32 percent have no preference. Seventy four percent favor a stronger naval, 69 percent a larger army, and 80 percent a stronger air force. Except in the case of armed invasion of the United States or its possessions, 68 percent of the people believe that a declaration of war should be laid before the country for a vote; 32 percent oppose a war referendum.
These figures are the vane in the wind of American public opinion. They show that America believes in preparedness and in peace. A Neutrality Act, stronger and with less loopholes, would go far towards eliminating the possibilities of war.
Comment
Medics' Methods Aren't Doctors' Ethics
"Political railroading and big time electoral organization ran riot in the School of Medicine elections . . . One party, with a fraternity majority, run away with the contest which was shrewdly plumed and deftly executed."
The Phi Beta-KI Phi Chi coalition won three offices before the Independents and Nu Sigma Nu cane'dates were hardly aware of an election, the University Daily Kansan further states.
There being no set rules for this election, the coalition presented a well planned list of candidates at a late hour. The Nu Sigs and Independents were forced to name their nominies before closing time, necessitating hurried and indiscriminate choices.
The defeated party has raised a cry for a fair electoral plan to govern future School of Medicine elections. Like all elections on the Hill, where political maneuvering dominates choice of candidates and election methods, definite rules drawn up beforehand will guarantee in some measure, fairness to all parties involved.

IT'S REALLY NOT A CAMOFLAUGE
When I subscribed to the Kanse it was with the understanding that I would receive five issues per week, each containing four pages of more or less relevant printed matter. You can choose from more or less relevant printed material, and one almost totally blank sheet number page 2. The typographical department, it seems, is at fault. Or are you so ashamed of your efforts to understand that you don't want anybody to read them? Or what?
Perhaps none of your other subscribers has noticed the illegible dimness of page 2. I happen to be one of them, and they are all pretty good, but the editors. Couldn't you speak to the printers about using enough ink on that page to make this possible.

The man who plays the radio in the Union building lounge was in a nasty mood yesterday morning. Radio programs this week are as bad as the ones last week he complained. Last week it was part of another country, and this week it was sporanous bawling for yellow baskets.

Owing to the abundance of green food, turkeys will be bigger this year, but the cranberry crop threatens to be the smallest in years. However the department of agriculture need not be alarmed. The situation will not bother those who take their turkeys and cranberries on a 50-50 basis—one turkey to one cranberry.

Foo Poo Goo has been organized by the boys down at 413 West 14th St. in the heart of the looped district. Notable executives of the fraiary are: Huck Wright, head mogul; Harey Branson, president of vice; Bilt Hill Barclay, secretary of large; George Clasen, chairman of internal revenue; and Joe Brown, social chairman.
MAESTRO RED BLACKBURN, who for so many years held sway over the swing situation at the University, has organized another band and will be be heard frequently during the coming social season. Hailing now from Kansas City, Red frankly admits that KU. is his favorite stomping groun . . . because the kids like to "hoe it down."
Came the payoff when Leesonads Galloway received a better drenching than initiates due to the inaccurate aim of some Alpha Chi. So the boys, not to be out-done, connected up a garden hose and returned the compliment thru an upstairs window.
Bob Galloway and Ernie Leeves vs. the Alpha Chi chapter was a result of the KU-KU initiation last Thursday night. Institute were being forced to trek about the campus serenading sororities, and the members were asked in advance have a goodly supply of water on hand.
