Tri-Power Trouble
While the rest of the world sits around and worries about Germany and the Locarno agreements, it might be well for some of us to turn our attention to France. France is a strong nation and we see what Italy, Austria, and Hungary are.
Under the present European conditions any tri-power conference may well be viewed with alarm. There has as yet been no formal announcement as to the content of these discussions but those who are informed say the agreement involved no military obligations but merely strengthened the existing protocols between the three countries.
The agreements were made on political and economic bases entirely. The political agreement contained clauses strengthening the consultative feature of the accords of 1934 by bringing about more frequent meetings among the statesmen of the three countries. There was also stated a platform of the three countries in reference to the principle European problems. Certain well defined conclusions were understood to have been reached regarding plans of action in future event-utilities.
Perhaps there is nothing in this conference to cause alarm but chances are very good that anything might develop. When conferences start one can expect the present balance of power to be in a very precarious position and any upset of this balance might be very serious indeed.
Let Europe fight her own wars, is counsel being heard frequently these days. If Europe wants us to fight her wars, let her bring 'em over here.

What To Expect
The President of the United States, last week, broke one of etiquette's hard and fast rules. Democrats throughout the length and breadth of the land began to wonder about their leader's inaffiliability. They demanded an explanation.
Meanwhile cabinet members and notables, great and small, gathered in the lobby of Washington's Mayflower Hotel to attend the annual dinner to the President. As time passed the crowd became more and more restless and shifted uneasily from foot to foot. Didn't they know that it was from such incidents as these that international crises arose!
At that moment, however, the White House staff was ransacking the mansion's top floors for the President's pearl vest stools, indispensable equipment of a full dress waist coat. They weren't in his studios and no one—not even McDuille, his Negro valet—could find them. Mr. Roosevelt thought they had gone to the laundry; Mrs. Roosevelt wasn't sure but she did know it was getting late. Finally the President shipped in his black studs and proceeded to the banquet. The shocked audience hardly recovered from this rank breach of social etiquette.
The administration, however, points with pride to the fact that the buttons did turn up in the wash. They knew that their leader just didn't make mistakes and break rules without some good reason. Perhaps we can expect the reason for Roosevelt's policy to turn up in the wash of the 1936 election.

What to Write About
An editorial, they tell us, is the easiest type of writing because of the multiplicity of subjects about which it is possible to ramble on. But there comes a time in the affairs of editorial writers when all those subjects for some unknown reason dwindle down to one—What to Write About?
But, professors shriek out in protest, there are so many things! You must be an utter dunce not to be able to think of at least one thing. What about the weather? The whistling of the March wind through the trees? Spring, beautiful spring? He hurriedly conceal the expression on our faces and matter. Well but . . . Then Hitler, or another, Well but . . . Then Hitler, or another, hearing about them. There's been more tripe written about them in the last year than either one of them could read in a life time.
"What about the political situation?" they ask us. Well, what about it? All we know is that we are disgusted with the whole affair and realize that it's only a force anyway. Why should we write a long editorial explaining why such-and-such an official made such-and-such an act when we know that he's out to get all he can for himself and that's all?
And then there are those who tell us that our trouble is psychological. All authors come to such extremes at one time or another, and some are afflicted with it more often than others. Just sit down at the typewriter, they tell us, and write.
Write anything and this situation can soon be overcome. Some ingeniously recommend caffeine tablets and others sweair that a good shot of highgrade Bourbon is just the thing.
But we still can't think of anything to write about.

Editor Daily Kansan;
It is a well known fact that a country turns to Conservation when a crisis threatens. Should England turn conservative she would become openly hostile to the France-British pact. Naturally she would then be pro-immunist, but she would both at the same time? Both have dictates. Can she favor the one and sanction the other? Can England favor German imperialism as expressed by Hitler's Rhineland occupation and openly be hostile to Italy's imperialistic attitude? It may be that because England is definitely anti-Massachusetts she will not turn Conservative, but then, Germany is likely to make a decision she has in the Rhineland affairs that the Locust Pact and a treaty really doesn't bind a country to keep her promise.
Let us hope the Labor Party is successful for with such a victory one may still be optimistic regarding the probability of world peace, for then a treaty will be something more than just a "scrap of paper."

The Kansen apparently has unearned another issue upon which it can take a stand. Formerly confined to declaring forbicide against careless driving it has now enlarged its range and has come out treachantly against the use of firearms in school districts passed several structures upon the "liberal element" for rudeness for Henry J. Allen. It might have observed some principles of journalistic fairness in printing out the full details of incidents that occurred during circumstances. Students are taught, after all, to respect rigid adherence to fact especially in regard to controversial subjects. Mr. Allen's political halo was hardly able to restrain a certain amount of justified anger in his square-horn hour long distortion of fact and theory.
Some of the blame must be laid at Mr. Allen's door, After indulging in an absentee debate with Mr. Norman Thomas (faring somewhat better than he did in St. Louis with that gentleman present); he severely criticized Communism, Fascism, and "all other items" because the personal freedom under such system In the case of communism, for instance, foretendate between the principles of either system, made statements of "fact" which he could not sustain and declared against the "inclusion of radical thought in students by radical professors" although they could teach these things if they did not vary (Mr. Allen presumably had taught by Radical professors). Angel) (teacher of Marx according to Allemigh all those is Friedrich Engels and he was not Marx's mentor), Karl Marx (who taught Leon, stated Allemigh, although they never met) and which laid down the basic principles of Socialism as "free love, athleism and expropriation." This is not the place to refute such minutements. What those whose principles were outraged had the right to expect Mr. Allen to substantiate his statements. In reply to the first question, which would lead to sorely needed clarification of the terms the speaker used, Mr. Allen replied in the manner of the typical platform political haranguer who often had to explain his position. This level may be gauged from his definition of teacher "a teacher is one who teaches what is taught."
It is perhaps true that the librarians were over-camel in their questioning. It is equally true that Mr. Allen did little to inculcate the respect which comes readily to any speaker who is in command of his subject and his treatment of it. The Kansen in its statement that campus forges the treatment accorded V. Colston.
We appreciate that conservative men have a point of view and we would be the last to object to their presenting it. What we do object to is popular political discourse, which requires him to form a Forum committee engaged Mr. Allen it presumably was of the opinion that, since he was a former governor and U.S. senator he could present his point of view from a social and political philosophy; unfortunately it was not well known or uncritically termed of the Saturday Evening Post.
Rude, perhaps, but Mr. Allen called the tune.

Intramural Carnivals Have Not Always Been Acme of Propriety and Decency
By Dale O'Brien, c'37
Slobber with intent to kiss was a criminal offense in 1926. And the A.T.O.'s deposited you with peremptory finality in the housegate at the Intramural Carnival if you were guilty of trespassing between tbooties on the carnival floor also punishable with imprisonment.
However, our predecessors here were not always pamies. On occasion they conducted their carnivals as we would have this year's circus on April 2 conduction . . . and one "where you can find life as it is and drink it to the delight" advertising the frenzy of 221
In 1920 our elders staged a show that made University of Kansas history. They invited all the coal miners from Fitchburg to attend with no cost and put on any stunts they could perform. Traces of their dull still remain. The museum's new exhibit is *Filming*," a meticulized production which was filmed for the newreels (along with the remainder of the carnival) with a camera "upon which a shell had exploded during the war." Despite its battered condition, the cameramaster only clearly and pictures of the hoe-down were shown on the Pathe circuit.
Alpha Chi Sigma, chemistry fraternity, received highest honors that year for its distilling exhibition which was the cause of considerable exhilaration among students and督导ers were "glass blowing and chemistry ensembles" which dazzled the public."
The sensation of the evening was the Hula dance which was judged by five virile members of the faculty.
Fifteen hundred flocked to the carnival of 22 to gape wondrously at a clever pianist who put his back to the piano, stood on his head, rested his
A year later the carnival was uncensored and we can't print what went on except that the Sigma Nu wild man made the hit of the show.
British Bureaus Bring Bad Husbands Back to Baby
London—(UP) Five thousand marriages a year are expected to be saved in the wake of the recent emergency likely to be set up in Britain. A Home Office Departmental Committee has completed a report that it devised an action plan of dealing with matrimonial disputes
There is, it is said, complete agreement among the committee members as well as the preliminary and informal investigation and finalization for separation orders. Witness after wined urgently the necessity of measures between quarring husbands and wives.
There was recognition of the fact that in some cases, it might not be desirable to keep children together, but the prevailing view was that in the great majority of cases threatened homes and the happiness of families might be preserved.
The new "reconciliation agencies" probably will work under supervision of magistrates.
More than 10,000 separation orders are made every year in Britain and some social workers are convinced that it may be possible to halve this number if a sympathetic and determined effort is made.
The underlying principle of the recommendations will be that no application for a separation order should be heard in court until some attempt has been made to consult the parties and smooth out the differences.
Then, when a case does come to court it is proposed that it shall be heard by the court charged. Some members of the committee favor special courts, which have
Another recommandation will be for the establishment of medical and psychological panels to work in association with the magistrates' courts.

The year 1925 saw sentiment and romance creep into carnival conduct, and our forerunners re-encoded scenes from the west. The Sigma Chim, over entertaining, conducted the Slippery Golch dance hall and bar which was the hangout of a lady known as Lou.

List Rules for Getting Jol
Placement Assistant at Yale Offers Advice to Graduates
New Haven, Conn. — (U.P.) With thousands of youths looking for jobs and many more to join them upon graduation, the Yale University campus, June Ralph R. Wull, senior placement assistant at the Yale University bureau on education, cites 10 rules for getting a job.
1. Find out what you want to do.
An employer doesn't care what you're interested in.
2. Study yourself. What have you to offer a prospective employer? Remember, getting a job is largely a matter of "selling yourself."
4. Prepare the story of your experience and your capabilities carefully.
3. Study your market -- the places where you are likely to find jobs.

It is really an art that everyone should be proud to have. It not only shows your ability to talk intelligently, but it also shows you in many tight places. Think how much easier it is when a friend asks to borrow some money. You get your wallet or pocket-book, peer into it, rattle the keys or whatever you happen to have in it, look at the camera and ask if they like oysters with wheels on them do you? While he is searching for a kit-

5. Find out all you can about your prospective employer. Look up his business and know exactly what you can offer his organization.

6. Wear suitable clothes.
7. Be well groomed.
Have you ever visited an inane say num? The answer will probably be that time-worn, static one. "No, but when did they let you out?" Too disgusted to let them know you heard the remark, you might get along without their friendship, you explain very patience but coltly, that if you had had time to finish the statement you would have said, "Well then, have you even noticed how alike some of the conversations of present-day students and intimates of asylum are?" The past three or four years this type of conversation with students. No surprise or wonder is shown when someone sweeps down upon you with "I like nine fried," or "I am Honest Abe Lincoln." After quick thought, you will probably give a smacky answer as "I think so, too," or "Hold the phone." This could go on for too long to get down to the serious business of taking this, you find that it is hard to do.
8. Avoid Mondays, Saturdays and days before and after holidays
9. Look alive

10. Have something to say. Say it. Stop talking!
"Getting a job," according to Wulf, "is mostly selling yourself. You must show your prospective employer how you are going to benefit his organization. An interview shouldn't last more than 20 minutes. If you can't make your potential value apparent during this time, it is not likely that you will succeed." Wulf suggests utes—and this is a good point to remember whether you are interviewing for a job or conferring with an associate after you have obtained one!"
