UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN VOLUME XXXIV Landon Closes Fiery Campaign With Vote Appeal The Official Student Paper of the University of Kansas Governor Speaks From Topeka; "We Must Hold Line of Democracy," He Urges Topeka, Nov. 2, (UP)—Governor A.M. Linden,洪开campaign for the presidency by urging the voters to go to the polls to tomorrow and "vote as Americans for the future of America." Declaring that the voters will not go to the polls classified as workers, farmers, or recipients of relief but as "Americans," London in a simple, 800-word speech, expressed his faith in the decision of the voters. "The world needs a free America," the Republican nominee said in a radio address from the executive committee of Democracy. We dare not fail." "Everywhere I have gone I have seen great numbers of men and women who have given both time and money in making clear, as they understand them, the issues that face the country," Landon said. "To these men I want to pay trib- tute. There has been no campaign in many years in which they have sensible of their responsi- bilities." on the SHIN by alan asher It is with great sorrow that I must give the obituary at the hurial services of Mrs. Heinz's progeny. My nerves are jangles with grief and my heart is filled with bereavement for after all, next to William Zupanc. I was closest to her in her hour of need. Bill, who is not only a ventilator and betraying politician, but quite a hand at the art of administering medical aid to less ill children, has been the last. He reports that some person or persons should be prosecuted for their vicious treatment of Mrs. Heinz and that the tragedy was by no means her fault. At any rate, Mrs. Heinz will not hear the patter of young feet upon the North Administration driveway as the poor little fellows were never able to stand. And he should cry with me for tomorrow Mrs. Heinz may die, who knows, and besides Steven David is still without a nameake. One of the A T O lads thought that he would pull a whisker on the churches of Lawrence when registering by purporting to be an agnostic on the religion card. A few years later, he went from the Unitarian Church office with the following not written on the inside: "Agnostics welcome, rather desired, perhaps you would call me an agnostic. You will find no theistic flavor here." The note signed by the Rev. H. Lee Jones. + + + NUMBER 39 One pair of the campus round-abouters has asked me to issue a warning to the more demonstrative students of this school to beware of the lonely road bordering the street where I was sitting at the moon or something a few nights ago and were held up by a stranger with a gun. It was reported that the lad in question lost all that he had but the girl just laughed and laughed; cause she now all the time that it was a water-gun. Word comes that Prof. and Mrs.Hullinger watched the last football game through bionicules while seated cozy behind the Union fan. The Rumor Runner has it that the professor likes to do things the hard way. As yet no news has come as to the identity of the girl who appeared at the Miami Triad party in the green Robin Hood conspiracy and Casanova's are still, hounding me. I don't know why this column has to be used as a lost and found department but I certainly am. How did she come from the student body for the sake of my own peace and tranquility.

But should you say, "Brother, can you spare your Kansan?" said brother immediately becomes a beast, frowns upon you, and displays other definitely unsociable traits—for you are asking for something very near and dear to you.

KANSAS Comment News Behind the Bars 15 DECEMBER are lamenting the cruel fate of the prison reformer Sigal Suspicion, victims of reactionary politics, whose football prospects for this season have been destroyed. Correction Commissioner Edward P. Mulroney has ordered abandonment of charged admissions to Sing Sing's football games. The striped ruzzle-dazzlers will be the famous Alabama Pits to the professional leagues will not be able to pay transportation for visiting teams, and it is an established custom that Sing Sing players never go visiting themselves. The reformers, demanding the removal of Mulrooney, consider this a terrific blow at penological progress. They think he is taking the road back to the whipping-post. The prisoners think Mulrooney has a better memory than the reformers. has a better idea. Never again, will Sing Sing be able to administer the Thuggingday day baiting which it gave the New York cops when Mulrooney was city police commissioner. "Oh Freedom! What Sins--" In a speech before the Inland Press association at Chicago a few weeks ago, Elisa Hshan, general counsel of the American Newspaper Publishers Association, charged that the National Labor Relations Act "reeks of Hitlerism at its very core," and said that the Nazi "containment" for the suppression of the press must be the same man who covered the pages of the Editor and Publisher for October 10, 1950, counsellled publishers to ignore the Labor Board and violate, if necessary, the National Labor Relations Act. Mr. Hshan is not a journalist. Attorney Hanson knows that his charge is tripod-distilled silice juice. That there is suppression no one can deny. But these efforts emanate not from Washington but from the very camp that howls about a nonexistent New Deal dictatorship. It is entirely fitting that Mr. Hannon delivered his speech in Chicago where the only flagrant case of "regimentation" occurred when a newspaper which daily prints Westbrook Peger's column suppressed two installments in which Pegler criticized Governor Landon. in which Ferguson the same pro-Landon patriots reserve the right to attack Roosevelt as a Judas or a Juda, a Stalin, a musculist, and their fulminations find their way into print. (Hiler is neglected, for American Nazism are supporting Landen). Then they deny service, jail and deportation. They bldgdomen for strikers and gags for teachers. They cry "Hiliterism" insures demand the technique and terror of Hilderian. Most often when you look behind the eries of "New Deal regimentation" and "Preserve freedom of the press," you will find a selfish and ulterior motive for the bellowing. What this element of the publishing gentry hold, and want to hold, is a chief name of "freedom of the press" to be wield to smile down the book (particularly the American Magazine Guild) memencing the only freedom with which the predatory group is concerned. The King Edward III-VII-Mrs. Simpson romance continues on its merry way, but a new angle has appeared. It seems that since the British press has placed itself under a voluntary censorship, members of the English government are like to see the United States at the same. Recent reports indicate the British are contemplating zeroth request to this effect to Washington. Can the British be so naive as all that? English be no svae in that he doesn't mind the publicity, maintaining that he is doing nothing of which he is ashamed. The voluntary censorship came about because the majority of newspaper publishers—along with various cabinet members—decided that it should be for the best if the case were left alone. Now rumors concerning the romance- $A$ such it can be called—are prevalent in all parts of England. Even the radio stations carry nothing about it, and in last two weeks Time magazine's accounts of the affairs have been torn from all copies arriving in England. It would appear that treating the story in an A actually Attorney Hanson's definition of freedom of the press means the freedom to pile up gains, the freedom to hire and to exploit and to fire employees at will and the freedom to crush all opposition of those threatening their profitable and "patriotic" liberties. A member of the Editorial II class. What Price Freedom ordinary way would have been the better course. Many way would have been better. But to expect the peace of the United States to soft-pedal the story because English statements would prefer it is almost incompressible. For one thing the government has no control over the press, and other thing, the press just won't stand for it. If it a case of some grave international matter, the proposed request might seem reasonable, but as it is only something to ponder, unbelieving, wondering the while whether English statements are not overrated. About the only business men who enjoy slack business are pants manufacturers.—Topeca Daily Capital. Must This Go On? The tale of the old man in the high silk hat is be coming as popular, and as tiresome, as the knock knock series. Every politician has a different version of the story and seems to feel compelled to use it in at least one speech. President Roosevelt was the first to describe how an elderly gentleman fell off a pier into the ocean. Upon being rescued, he was profuse with his thanks but afterward returned to complain because his high silk hat had not been saved. Soon after, a Republican speaker retold the story adding that the old man had been pushed in so as to make the resources appear here. Norman Thomas contends that the hat was saved and is now being cleaned and blocked preparatory to uiving it back as a Christmas present. to giving it back as a Christmas gift. Al Smith is the latest to bring forth his version. He says that after the New Deal rescued the old man "they took his pants by taxation and other ways." It is doubtful if this is to be the last of the series but it would be a relief to pick up the account of a political speech with this parable conspicuous by its absence. Mussolini allows no books criticizing him to be circulated in Italy. He's not going to allow an author to make a live out of him. -Toppea Daily Capital. Campus Opinion SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 1. 1930 The organized houses on the Hill claim to give the girls who are there all of the privileges they have at home and yet a girl is not allowed to entertain a date in the house after eight o'clock during weekdays. Instead, if they wish to study or work driven to one of the "student housing" rooms, Yes, it has even the point where a girl must make a choice, which has become to be not even a choice. Perhaps my home is different from the homes of all the other students, but my mother has never told me that I could not entertain a boy in my home to seek some "joint".

"In a little detail and a half the chemical engineering depart- ment is from a subordinate department limited to the continues "In a little over a year and a month has grown from a subordinate of Professor Kinney's office in the basement of the Chemistry building to become an independent department with a student membership in the American Institute of Geological Engineers, occupying the time of the original floor space. It has developed a new laboratory, is completing the installation of an experimental distilling system, and now offers a master's degree." For these remarkable developments Professor Kinney served as professor and seniors in the chemical engineering department full credit. "Don't believe what you hear about CSEP workers," Professor T. H. Marshall advised today as he reviewed the phenomenal development of the chemical engineering department and contemplated its future. "These boys has been splendidly." "They are as energetic as any other student," he went ahead to explain, "and any loading on their part is due to faulty management." Students Installed Apparatus Because of increased enrollment in the chemical engineering department. Professor Marshall was brought to the University in the fall of '35 to aid in the development of an adequate laboratory. He began work immediately. In the spring of '36 the senior chemical engineers took an active part in the development of the new laboratory. They installed and ran tests on fluid-flow apparatus, evaporators, heat transfer apparatus, filtration apparatus, centrifuges, furnaces, mining, storage and reaction tanks, and distillation apparatus. Even this new laboratory was not sufficient to meet the needs; so in the summer of '36 the laboratory space was more than doubled and a new still was purchased. As the ceiling was only 13 feet high and the still was almost 28 feet height an extrascope was made through an excavation of Oread lime—and the remainder of the way through blue shale. through the standard Vulcan Model A-1 still modified by Professor Marshall to incorporate five glass sections in the rectifying column so that the active process of rectification may be seen at pressures of 40 pounds gauge or under high vacuum, is being set up by CSEP and graduate students under Professor Marshall's direction. The still may be used as a simple still batch distilling still, continuing distilling column only, or exhausting and rectifying column. This combination of distillation units cost the department $4,000. Master's Degree Offered Master's Degree Offered With the new laboratory and other facilities the department has undergone where a Master's degree was offered. At the present time four graduate students, namely; Harold Leven, Chicago Beddingfield, Chicago majoring in chemical and metallurgical engineering. The still, which may now be seen in the process of erection, should be finished within a month. Experimental operations will begin only after calculations are made for the complete operation. The installation of the still alone presents many problems. Among these are the creep of a scaffold around the still the length of floor space, install of compressed air, high pressure steam, electricity, and fee lines. Other aparatus which the department is planning to install includes is a new experimental multiple effect evaporator and a new rotary dryer. A single effect evaporator will be purchased first and the second, third, and fourth, will be added as appropriations permit. This progress forms the basis for the department's application to student membership in the American Institute of Chemical Engineering, and it must continue to show room for growth in order to return the membership.
