PAGE TWO UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS SUNDAY. OCTOBER 18, 1936 Comment Spain and Europe Editor's Note: This is the second of a series of editorials concerning the present situation in Spain and Europe. The history of the Spanish revolt is a story with many ramifications. There is the Catholic Church, the disastrous Rifflan campaign, the Rivera dictatorship, the 1931 revolt, the Asturias revolt. The Catholic Church is a large land-holder in Spain—and probably has been the largest employer, and the single largest educational institution. As a land-holder it has traditionally clung to that regime that would insure the greatest stability for its investments. As an employer it has paid some of the lowest wages in Spain. It is an unhappy fact that the Catholic Church in Spain had become little less than a leech sucking blood from the people. Some have even suggested that some church mission be sent among the priests of Spain to introduce them to Christianity. But it was its position as teacher that has earned it the undying hatred of Spain's millions. It inculcated reactionary doctrines—attitudes that were the chief force for keeping the inefficient Alfonso on the royal throne as long as he was. Its attitude is expressed in the following quotator from the New Catechism, printed in Barcelona dated 1914, a copy of which was in every church. Question: What sin is committed by those who vote liberal? Answer: Usually mortal sin So when Alfonso and his whole way went in 1931, the church was on its way too. Few people beyond the devout farm-laborers of Burges and Navarre provinces go to church any longer. The beautifully decorated edifices have no meaning for them. A corrupt regime whose final and devastating piece of stupidity culminated in the loss of 10,000 men in a single battle against the rebel Riff, Abd El Krim, saw its end in 1831. With it went the last remnants of the De Rivera dictatorship that had attempted to quiet working class protest and retain Alfonso on the throne. A Republican regime was instituted. Its Socialist and Republican founders gave the new republic a constitution unique in the annals of democracy. Spain was declared a workers' state composed of workers of hand and brain. War was outlawed save where sanctioned by the League. So devoted were the Socialists to the ideal of suffrage that they granted the ballot to women, whose narrower environment and relatively greater illiteracy caused a swing back to the Right parties. Spain saw several swings of the pendulum since then. There were two important revolts—that of General San Jurjo in favor of the monarchy and the Asturias Revolt. When history will forget all else about the early days of the Spanish Republic it will remember that in October, 1934, a band of Austrian miners, gouged to madness by seeing the Constitution violated by the Rightist regime of Lerroux and Rables took up arms. Their heroism is a classic. For days they withstood the trained troops from Africa. When the smoke blew over, several thousand had been killed, over thirty thousand Leftists were in jail all over the land, and the Moors had received their contracted-for three days of loot and rapine. The leader of these saviours of Spain was one, General Franco who then won his appropriate accolade, the "Butcher." As journalists penetrated into the region they found that the Leftists strangely enough hadn't burned churches and crucified priests. The Trade Unions had organized the region, centering around Oviedo, very efficiently. Even when the miners were dropping from lack of food they broke into no stores but bought what they could with their meager funds. The disorder came with Franco. As is so generally true in history—the bloodshed came with the reaction, not with the revolution. The news soon spread over Spain of the brutalities committed by Franco and supported by the government. The people seethed as they read of the purse raised by wealthy landowners for Franco and his Moors. For Moors had been used—their terrible name, one well-founded, was to have terrified the miners. It failed to, then, as it seems to fail, now. All the Leftist leaders lay in jail, Largo Caballero, present premier, among them, until the election last spring. That is the immediate preface to the present revolt. Somebody stole the mayor's hat. Political aspirants are exonerated. They would prefer to be in the mayor's shoes—Kansas City Kansan. Vote As You Please. But Vote The future of the nation rests on your shoulders now. You will choose your leaders, and you will pay the taxes they demand. Don't be content to let the other fellow make the choices and then sit back and gripe about rotten government. The thrill of being eligible to vote! Why should you let it die out simply because you are unfamiliar with the voting procedure for non-residents? The whole voting procedure has been made as simple as possible for students, and there is no reason why you, as a citizen of these United States, should not qualify yourself as a legal voter and fulfill your duty as a citizen by casting your ballot in the election on November 3. Failure to register before the primaries does not disqualify your vote, but if you expect to cast your ballot in the presidential election, you must register at the city hall before October 23. A special polling place will be set up in the Douglas County court house for students. Non-residents may vote their own county tickets by writing-in the names of their candidates in spaces provided in the regular Douglas county ballot. I tmkno no difference what your party is—whether you are a Republican, a Democrat, or a follower of one of the minor parties. Show your loyalty to that party by registering with the city clerk in the next eight days, and cast your ballot on November 3. In some persons nervousness manifests itself in ceaseless conversation. The same condition causes others to daub whipped cream on otherwise perfect pumpkin pie - Topeka State Journal. China has its gummen problem handled by Japan, which moves right in and takes charge of it. There is nothing like a good neighbor. -Kansas City Journal-Post.

Editor Daily Kansan The controversy between members of the University Daily Kansas and certain members of the University of Kansas football coaching staff is of deeper significance than whether or not they should be in college or in the university or lack of school spirit. The fundamental issue is whether the University Daily Kanaan, a student newspaper, is to be coerced into printing only those opinions which are favoured to them. The Kanaan's own paper does not, then, the Kanaan is no longer a free newspaper. It is necessarily important that students remain on terms of friendliness with those in authority. If this friendliness is lost, it is the student who suffers. With these facts often a student will interfere in development in a most insistent form. Free speech and free press go together. They are the aufkurses of freedom liberalists. They are to protect free speech, but they also oppress it, however, college students are not citizens and therefore are not qualified to express their candid opinions in free speech. I trust this will be printed in the The University Daily Kansan. Yours very truly. Herbert C.

This message in a news Kenan Kauai headline brings the realization that another University landmark is il danger of coming to the fate already suffered by North College and old Ski hall. The growth University had been running only 16 years when realizing the inadequate of the original North Campus, which would have General John Kuser escaped the erection of a newbuilding "sufficient to meet the need of the school for the university."

The older living in Lawrence knows the meaning of this. It remains, however, only as a ghostly legend, and the Callack house has become a favorite spot for investigation by curious students. The great expense of our United States before the white man came a few hundred years ago is a far different picture from the vast lands and ravaged resources of our country today. In a bird's eye view Mr. Chase shows this comparison, and in considering all the geographic and geological phases of this vast panorama he points out what destruction has been done, what is going on now and the inevitable outcome if we do not plan a strict conservation of our land resources, our national economic growth, and the movements of the past and of the present in other parts of the world are discussed. One day the two girls became ill with some disease, perhaps diphtheria which at that time was not understated. The girls died and were buried to the grave soon followed them to the grave, but it is believed he was striched with a heart attack. The mother, a very beautiful brunette, was very delicate and caught an astonishment as catastrophe, took to her bed, where she remained for several weeks. During this time she lost her mind completely. Since there was no sanatorium near, she remained at home with her husband. She remained at home while they wandered through the halls and rooms dressed in her white robe, with her long dark hair flowing, and continually called for her children, especially the son. This seemed to bring her pity. She went home and watched which the Callack place was sold. Catchall immediately returned to New Children All Died Mr. Callack, a wealthy man from New York, brought his wife and three children, two girls and a younger son, to Kansas the early part of this century. He then moved to Texas, building a hill a few miles northwest of Lawrence. He believed because of its fertile valley along the Kaw river, Lawrence would some day be a thriving city. They settled down to a peaceful life and were quite happy but for a short NOW! "The cooperation of all our people is needed to plan and support movements to conserve our resources and to re-build them already partially destroyed. American officials say the "strength of our nation is due to the continent of North America. It has moulded us, nourished us, fed its abundant vitality into our veins. We must be strong in our lives, we must without its strong arms about us. Shall we destroy it?" G.V.M. "Cone with the Wind" by Margaree Mitchell. (Macmillan Co. N.

See---not let her perish. The struggle to keep the plantation and to have all things she wanted of life comprise this long tale. Having no virtue but courage, she need her beauty and charisma to act in ways that would not be seen in ways. She is understood by the grateful Melaine, married to Ashley Willes, the gentleman of honor, whom Scarlett secretly loves. Ashley, a product of the days of slavery, struggles to rise struggle. Unlike Ashley, Rhett Burr realizes the trend of the times and capitalizes on the downfall by blockade running. The disowned son of a divorcee, Rhett, has been in bitter realist. He has all the qualities of a melodramatic villain, but strongly enough, Miss Mitchell makes him live. so much alike that, to me, he is of the real characters of American fiction. He was aunt Rhett, or even sons Rhett, are on canvas in the skillful hands of the author as she had them defy each other, marry and in turn love and hate each other.

GRACE MOORE ' The King Steps Out ' FRANCHOT TONE York with nothing but sorrows and sad memories. Nothing remained of the joy with which he had come to Lawrence Many persons have lived in this house and have added barns and other buildings, yet it has failed to serve as a good home, because it has brought little happiness to its owners, and always a curse to the youngest son. Patterson were the last known to occupy them. They had heard of the curse, but did not believe that it would harm their son. Not long after moving in, their son was stricken with some illness. He never moved. They left and never returned to this place again. It has remained empty to this day. The old Callack house is standing yet, and still possesses some of its original beauty. People have refused to live there and visitors have stolen furniture and other items manned over the fireplaces in every room and the stairway banister. There are no window panes and the old-fashioned cistern remains open in the room. They also formed to explore this building and its grounds at night, in hopes and also in fear that they might see the ghost of Mrs. Callack running through the house calling her children, as some said they have seen and heard her.
