Much More Can Be Done
An intelligent student opinion beeded by a progressive health service has succeeded in getting facilities for a Wassermann test in the University. This may be marked as a victory both in its local aspects and in the nation-wide campaign toward the conquest of syphilis.
But it is merely the first of many possible victories. The next step, of course, will be the fullest student co-operation with the test to the end that it may have its greatest value in spite of the fact that it is not compulsory.
The Men's Student Council, the W.S.G.A. the men's and Women's Pan-Hellenic councils, the Y.M.C.A., the Y.W.C.A., and all other progressive organizations on the Hill could well go on record as urging their memberships and all students to take the test.
The next step, and one to be urged, is the establishment of compulsory tests for all public servants, which would include testing of all food handlers working where students are served, all barbers, clerks, etc.
The health service has supplied the facilities. They should be utilized to the fullest extent.
We Have It,
Let's Use It-
Our necessary non-participation in the Sino- Japanese conflict can be partially insured by invoking the neutrality law.
The law itself is powerless to prevent the American people from taking sides in the dispute, a division of sentiment which has already taken place. Propaganda has stacked American prejudice against Japan, and the recent story of the American flag's being thrown into the Whangpoo river from a Chinese-owned tug merely added to the sentiment of a public already sympathetic to anti-Japanese bilge wash,
The neutrality law may or may not favor the nation which the majority of Americans feel to be guilty. Evidence presented recently by Burton Crane, financial writer for the Wall Street Journal and the New York Times from 1926 to 1937, who spoke on the Campus, indicates that invoking the cash-and-carry provision of the law would seriously handecap Japan. Crane indicated that Japanese supplies of gold and credits could not possibly last beyond March.
But whether or not the neutrality act penalizes that nation whom John Public believes to be innocent, the United States must take steps to prevent her participation in the conflict.
The neutrality act cannot insure this non-participation, but it can assist. The machinery of the law is in existence. President Roosevelt must issue the proclamation that a state of war exists between Japan and China before the law can become effective.
Some action should be taken.
W. A. White Sees a Good Sign The Emmao Gazette
Times do change. Did you read that Chancellor Lindley of the University had been invited to speak to the farmers at their annual Farm Bureau meeting?
Did you think that you would live to see the day when the extension service, so closely linked with the agricultural college, would invite the prexy of the University of Kansas to participate in any of its functions? It may be that farmers will yet come to realize that there is a school down near the mouth of the Kaw which annually graduates some 800 or 900 students. We chanced to be on the campus of State college recently on the day that the Aggies met the Jayhawkers in football. There had been a veritable exodus. Buildings locked. The town deserted. They went out to bring home the bacon—and they did it.
The triumph is well worth its cost if on that victorious sally it was discovered that there is a friendly gray-haired counsellor down on the Kaw who is much interested in Kansas folk.
Garet Garrett's Wishful Thinking
In this defiication and the implied idea that all concerns function as does the Weirton enterprise, lie the main flaws in Garrett's reasoning.
With a degree of fervor which would have done credit to a patriot of World War days, Garet Garrett comes through in a big way for the cause of economic royalism in the current issue of the Saturday Evening Post. The Weirton Steel company is given a fine advertising boost, and all economic royalism is raised to the position of deity.
Garrett attacks the C.I.O. as an evil of the worst sort, and in the same breath couples the government with the C.I.O. as a big brother who stands back of anything the C.I.O. may do.
In an article so openly prejudiced, the veracity of Garrett's facts may well be questioned.
He mentions only a small handful of C.I.O. workers in the Welton mill. If the number were so small, would the government have felt the necessity of interceding?
Taking wages as the paramount object of a union, Garrett neglects the psychological need of a union for the feeling that it is a group to itself—unhampered by the guiding hand of its employer—and a member group of another still larger organization which has the necessary power to protect its members.
From a superficial observation, Garrett's reasoning may appear sound, but the weakness lies in attempting to parallel the conditions of all groups to those existing in the one used as the basis for Garrett's observations.

BUSINESS MANAGER ... F. QUENTIN BROWN
Columbia, Mo. Dec. 6—(UP) The "Thank-Gat-Its-Friday" Club, organized by students at the University of Missouri three years ago, has grown to have degrees and awards signs of becoming a national collegiate organization.
The latest chapter to be organized is at the University of Tulsa, where a group of students held initiation ceremonies recently.
Studs is the son of Pat Longigan, who by politics and a little shrewdness, has become a landlord and the propriator of a paint shop. He and his wife are Irish, and, in their own minds, devoted Catholic.
In the church schools, Studs learns nothing but knavery and a little sentimental religion. His youth is concentrated on getting tough in the Fifty-eighth street poolroom where he spends his days and as much as he dares of his nights from age 14 on.

The club was organized to provide weekend relaxation from studies. Its organizer was George Hilton of Dearborn, Mich., a student in the Missouri School of Journalism. It all began when Hilton walked into a delicatessen near the school, sat down in a chair, called for a glass of beer and exclaimed: "Thank God it! Friday."
He is tough enough, but has a soft spot in him easily touched by romance and vague impulses to be healthy and good. Never quite hard-boiled, he never runs re-verbal, even after several wardens establishing a character, good or bad, or a career that can last. His one great joy is that he once fought and whipped the neighborhood bully, thus gaining some notoriety, magnified by his egotism, in the eyes of his gang. But to be successful, he was as far as his imagination stretched. Only in this cheap,
A group of students thereupon decided to celebrate the release from weekly class routine. They have met regularly since for an informal evening of beer drinking and singing. The clubly record for draining a

This book is a minatory indictment of the existing social system. To make it so, Mr. Farrell used a sordid and distressing story as the basis for his unbearable brutal, as in the gang sexual enterprises of the poolroom boys. It is sometimes sickening, as is the wild org of intoxication and lust of a New Year's party. But, with a wrinkled branxtache,

there is in the "budget" girl who is an liberal with her affections as the man is with his money. If he takes her for a coke, he can hold her hand. If he takes her to a show he can put his hand on her. If she takes her to a dance, he can kiss her.
Then there is the "time passer" who sits in the car until the last curse sounds and then rushes home to tell the other girls all about it. Also there is the statistical girl who feels that "necking" is all right after the third or fourth or fifth date. And of course there is the prince who gets indignant and rushes wildly into the alphtenic house, the "personal daughter" is the type that worries about what Mother will say. Last but far from least is the "try-a-little-harder" type who really leads a man on.
With the smell of holly in the air and the realization that this semester is fast drawing to a finish, we've been looking through our notes for the semester and taking inventory. The results are rather puzzling, and we strongly suspect that a few other things are from looking over a few shoulders.

We find that not only can we count up to 10 on paper, but we can draw a picture of a rattlesnake ready to strike. Under the profound statement that culture is the sum total of socially transmittable results of living together we find a picture of life. There is no easy connection we have forgotten. We're taking orders now for the D. D. degree (Doctor of Doodling). The line forms at the Dean's office the day after finals.
Three Students Plead Guilty

Three students pled guilty and were fined $3 each in police court yesterday morning on charges of petty larceny. They were: Robert Blair, c'39; Dale Harpster, c'39; and Milton Brauer, c'40.
