Supreme Court Upholds State Job Insurance Law
Washington, Nov. 23—(UP)—The United States Supreme Court today upheld New York's state unemployment insurance law in a split decision which the administration believed would bring favorable ruling on the vast Social Security program, into which it dovetaild.
Federal officials acted promptly to spread the job insurance plan by asking all states to pass statutes requiring about 8,000 workers in 19 states and the District of Columbia are protected under this type of plan which taxes employers to provide health care for the salary earners though out of work.
Chairman John G. Winn of the Social Security Board, said he hoped all states not yet in the system "will now proceed quickly toward enactment of the necessary legislation."
"The Social Security board stands ready," he said, "on invitations of any state to give every possible assistance in the formulation of an unemployment compensation law which will both meet the local re-requirements and their particular state and will conform with the national security act."

The Theta's buffeted them about at a buffet supper Sunday night. About 5:30 "Carruth" sent word to Herb Lodge, of the Phi Gam lodge, who was in the picture show, that he was invited. Herb, being rather annoyed at being asked so late replied that he would come as soon as the show was out. In the meantime, Jim Kell, one of the brothers, filled in for Lodge and when the latter returns, finds that she has a feed-bag. All of which reminds me of the time the Kappa Ski's couldn't figure out which one of the Delta Zeta girls to take to the former's party. But then, that was in the good old days.

The regular fellers always catch fits from everyone when they hire ghost writers. Bette Wasson, gossiping for the Sour Owl, is trying to find the lost column in that sheet. Wasson didn't write the column but her name was on it. That's why I always insist upon Stephen David either putting his own name or that of him to stop this column when he writes it.
The biggest hoax of the school year occurred over the week-end. One of the belles of the campus with a lad in town walked down town but seeing no picture shows that she was interested in, hopped a train to the City to get a coke (?). The gig comes when the girl called her landlady from the Lawrence station, and, feigning a long distance phone call, reported that she was in Kansas City and would be unable

Clarke is well-known in military circles because he sawites the flag during a battle. He is also an officer of an inspector-general of the U. S army to do so. In 1899, while Clarke was at the Army Corps, Clarke was shot in the right shoulder, and the bullet took the joint to pieces.

A caravan of 100 automobiles and taxis left Madrid just before dark carrying women and children from Greece to Turkey, where were to leave during the night.
Thousands of civilians hunted refuge in underground retreats fearing that a rebel airplane might take advantage of the clear night to pay another destructive visit such as the one at dawn today.
Officials believe that between 300,000 and 400,000 women, children and aged men are willing to leave Madrid if the way can be found to transport them without crippling the war and food transport service.

The communique formally accusing Germany of the attack was issued after a cabinet meeting tonight. The Loyalists also accused Germany of espionage in favor of the beginning of the civil war.
So important was the issue so considered that the cabinet stayed in session from 4:30 p.m. until 11:30 a.m. before making its sensational charge.

To Try and Bring
Back the Bacon
Paul Doll, president of the Mythical Seven, senior men's honor society at the University of Missouri, sent the annual challenge to Sachem to bring the football used in the 1915 K.U.-M.U. to Columbia on ambiguating with the agreement that to the victor belong the spoil."
The 1915 game ended in a 3-all tie. Beginning in 1916 and continuing to the present, the tradition between the senior men's honor societies of the two schools decrees that whoever wins the bitter battle succeeds to possession for another year of the coveted pigkin.
Paul Wilbert, 138. Frank Allen,
149, and John Phillips, c37, members of Sachem, will be guests of the team at the league games between halves at the game.
Last year when the Tiger unexpectedly tied the Jahewh, 0-0, Kansas retained the football by virtue of previous possession. Not since the days of "Jarring Jim" Bunch made his first start as a leader symbol. This year the Tiger peer more chance than ever to make good its challenge.

A. F. of L. War Rages
Tempa, Flas. Nov. 25—(UP) - A furious battle rung on the floor of the American Federation of Labor convention over the resolution committee's attack on the 10 "rebel" C. IO. Unions and a recommendation that their suspension be continued in effect indefinitely.
Although the committee bluntly and bitingly insulted John L. Lewis and his insurgents C.I.O. aides for "biting the hand that fed them" in the past, it kept the door open for future peace negotiations and invited the suspended union to return to the A. F. of L. fold.
San Francisco, Nov. 25—(UP)—The leaders of two Pacific maritime unions representing the Western licensed personnel of the American Merchant Marine tonight instructed their members to join the strike movement instituted on the guild and Atlantic courts by a majority of the union's Mates, Mates, and Pilots Association and the Marine Engineer's beneficial association.

Their departure from the plant opened the way to resumption of conferences to end labor difficulties. Company officials had refused to continue the conferences until the workers had left the plant.
In turn it was understood plant officials had promised not to resume operations until negotiations had been completed.
The sole issue remaining, it was reported, was the union demand that a so-called company union be disbanded. Departure of the employees from the plant made a solution seem likely.
Hopkins to Attend Council Of English Teachers
Dr. Edwin M. Hopkins, professor of English, will leave tonight to attend the 25th anniversary convention of the National Council of Teachers of English, which will be held at Staten Island in Boston, Nov. 26-28.

His son, Abdu'l-Baba, who was imprisoned until 1985, is chiefly responsible for the propagation of the faith. Today the movement, all embracing in its scope, is spreading swiftly throughout America.
Spanish People Torn by Passion For Democracy
—STEWART
Battle Between Fascism And Communism Misconception Fostered by Newspapers, 'Nation's Editor Tells Audience
"Passion for democracy is the most important movement in Spain today," said Maxwell S. Stewart, associate editor of the National, editor of the Public Affairs pamphlets, and an eye witness to the present revolution in Spain at the University auditorium last night.
Stewart said, "That this is a struggle between Communism and Fascism is a fundamental misconception fostered by the newspapers."
"The present revolution may be explained in terms ' $ \land $ ' the former monarchial leader' the large land owners, the $ \land $ , $ g, $ and the church a direct heritage of feudal times" said Stewart.
He based his assumption of the democratic principle on three facts, namely; the diversity of opposing parties, the need for a strong middle class, and the growing realization of a need for a better social order, more freedom of speech and education.
Spains' greatest problem today is her more than 3,000,000 landless peasants, and 2,000,000 others barely subist. According to Maxwell Stewart, "Spain's army is notably the worst in Europe where one officer is killed by a small minority with the aid of the Moors to dominate the masses."
"The Catholic church has always been active in Spanish governmental affairs. Today its monopoly of educational and governmental institutions is being combated by the Republican party. After three warnings from the United States, it has definetly taken a stand against the church in politics."
Land is Big Problem
Republican Party Weak
"This is definitely not a struggle between Communism and Fascism. The Republican party is not radical but conservative, weak and ineffective. Their attempts as a program program, shows this very clearly."
"The rebel's policies incorporate only the bad and none of the good qualities of fascistic movements, in other parts of Europe. It might be because of the reactionary party. If the rebel party should win, Mr. Stewart predicts that the labor unions will be crushed, civil liberties will be eradicated, and mild changes in the type of social organizations will result." The answer is "Europe only as a likely ally in case of war."
"What should the United States do?" is a problem which interests our citizens. "We must make it very clear through our government that the American people take a definite stand against dictatorships and influences against dictatorship."
Now Nation Editor
At present Mr. Stewart is the associate editor of "The Nation", and is also editor of the "Public Affairs Pamphets," a series of publications by the Public Affairs Committee, Washington. He is author of a number of foreign policy reports and economic problems.
In addition to these surveys, he has written extensively on foreign policy in the United States and in "Nation," "New Republic," "World Tomorrow," "Annals of the American Academy of Political and Social Sciences," and the National Education Association Journal.
The forum is sponsored by the student forum board elected by the M.S.C. and W.S.G.A. and is em- porated at University supervision.
