International Idealism
Eighteen years ago Germany and the Allied and Associated powers signed a treaty to end the greatest conflict the world has ever seen. Inculcated in it was an outline for the present League of Nations. Despite the good provisions in this portion of the agreement, the other terms of the pact were such as to bankrupt Germany within the space of a few years.
Recently Germany moved a part of her regular army into the demilitarized zone of the Rhine valley and in doing so broke the last binding provision of the Treaty of Versailles. Hitler now tells the League that Germany is ready to enter providing that treaty's provisions, except those formulating the League itself, are scrapped. In his own queer way he believes he is offering the nations of the world a plan for peace.
Looking at the situation from an unethical standpoint one simply can't conceive of France as a member of the League, giving in to such a proclimation. It doesn't help that they evidently won't stop until success is reached.
But now is not the time to forget international ethics. They should be remembered at all costs. If France and the other members of the League agreed to admit Germany and scrap the Treaty of Versailles, it would probably be the greatest peace move of modern times.
The present indications, however, are that France will never forgive and never forget. With such a petty nationalistic policy predominant, in that country and others, all hopes for international idealism and ethics are utterly lost.
League of Nations health experts report the "average diet deficient in almost every country." Maybe in that case the world owes its present troubles primarily to indigestion.

Stephen Foster Night
According to the Indiana Daily Student, what promises to be one of the finest programs to be presented on the University of Indiana campus this year is the "Stephen Foster Night" which will be held March 12. The program will include the singing of familiar tunes written by the man who was, and still is considered by many people, America's greatest melodist.
Why not a "Stephen Foster Night" here at Kansas? It should be deemed a privilege to be afforded some means of paying a slight tribute to the man whose melodies were made familiar to us as far back as the elementary grades. His tunes still remain very much alive, and probably will live on forever. We feel that every student of the University will join us in asking for a "Stephen Foster Night."
Georgia Fire Brand
Some of Rome's announcements of what is happening in Ethiopia lead us to suspect that Mussolini has hired an American politician to do his claiming - TheCincinnatiEnquirer.
For months now a slender, black haired, tempestuous Georgian has been engaged in skirmishes with the Administration, taking occasional shots at the White House. Today he is ready for a heavy campaign which he intends to carry far beyond the borders of his own state. Governor Eugene Talmadge does not say specifically that he will oppose Roossevelt for the Democratic Presidential nomination but he does say that "any man who denies he would like to be President is either crazy or a liar and I am neither."
Not only has he a platform on which to stand but also he carries the indorsement of many pure-blood Georgia Democrats. His views denounce "regimentation" of free citizens, call for a return to the Constitution and to the Democratic platform.
The Talmadge movement can be summed up, however, in the words of Mark Sullivan of the New York Herald-Tribune. "It is just possible that a third party movement confined to the South might carry one or two states and subtract ten or twenty or thirty electors from Mr. Roosevelt's strength. That number of electors might be material for a close election, for the total number of electors is only 531 and the number required to win is 206."
A Moscow chauffer, charged with driving while intoxicated and held responsible for killing a horse and injuring three persons, has been ordered shot. We tremble to think of the consequences of such a drastic method of dealing with reckless motorists in this country. One result, at least, would be a marked decline in the population.—Kansas City Star.
More Worries
Dr. Alex Hrdlicka has been researching lately and has found unpleasant news for all, men and women alike. His research work has been conducted by applying tape measures to persons.
Dr. Hrdlicka is advising prospective brides and bridegrooms to choose mates with small ears,
noses, and mouths. He is forewarning them that as people grow older, their features grow larger. If a woman marries a man with a long, broad nose, by the time they are old his nose may be so big that she cannot find the rest of his face.
It is not only distressing to brides and prospective husbands, but all young people, married or unmarried can now start trying to find out how to keep themselves from being all nose, ears, and mouth when they get older. As if there were not enough beauty problems to face!

If the sororities and fraternites believe it necessary for their freshmen to study for several hours each day at the library would not be possible for these same groups to enforce quinquefees for their members? Because these freshmen are included into the building each day, they will be able to hangout and a date spot. The few people who do enter the library for the purpose of studying find that they have entered one of the noisiest buildings on the campus.

Editor Daily Kansan:
I should like to offer an apology to the Society of Pachacamac for an opinion I have held consistently for three years. In the past I have felt, and I think not erroneously, that the organization was indeed a society, i.e., a group of individuals bound together for the benefit of its members. I shall not attempt to corrober the fact that I am not with the opposition for this very reason, and because some sense of justice rebelled against the above policy.
The complete reversal of policy announced by Pachacamac in yesterday's Kanan meets with my heartiest approval, and I think the leaders of it should be compelled to accept it. It is also one of the progressive policy. While the move is, in effect, a copy of the primary ballot conducted last spring by PSGL this attach no sigma to it, nor should it detract from the credit due it. To follow a precedent set by the legislature, the Governor should accept a trail I have never before witnessed in Pachacamac.
A doubt, based on the past and on the organization of Pachacamac, yet remains in my mind concerning the sincerity of the move. If it is merely an attempt to copy the cloak of free-thinking progress without embedding it, it I should endure it, but until I have tangible reason, then the value of the move again, I apologize.
Editor Daily Kansan;
With the beginning of another HII political campaign, the Pachacamac party comes forth with something new, or at least it was new until the PSGL inaugurated it as a part of their campaign last year.
PSGL, in following closely the ideas which students turned on in the straw bailouts which they alone distributed last year to the men students, was able to formulate a program which the students themselves in reality made and this year the PSGL council has put into effect. This program was fought at all times by the Pacchianists both when they had a majority on the council and also when they have tried to block the progress of the council even though it is which PSGL councilmen were elected, the same kind of a platform which they now wish to stand upon.
Yet now they are turning to the very ideas which the students called for last year, to the ideas that they have all年turned a dear ear on in this year's council and are saying in effect "Elect us on the MSC because we have been elected." The program is indicated by your vote at the last MSC election but ideas which we have turned down at every turn because they were given to PSGL instead of Pachacamayo" That is why I doubt the sincerity of theAre. We are to believe that we have been caught in the movement for better students and they just brought up this piece of strategy to camouflage their true moves? Will they put such reforms into effect if they are elected after fighting against them all year in the council? And who can doubt that the vote in this council will lead a straight party vote on the most of the program of PSGL?
Clark Howerton.

Trained Frogs
Heed Call of Woman
For Feeding
Oakland, Calif.—(UP) -Mrs. Kathryn Varieis is the "frog woman" of Oakland. She is not interested in frogs purely for commercial motives. She is interested in them psychologically, emotionally, intellectually and socially.
Mrs. Vorbeis declares she always has and a peculiar power over frogs from the time she is a girl, when she hitched them to toy wagons. Now all she has to be to sing "Nette Grey" and the 3,000 frogs in her pond will go the goose-step tied up for feeding time. Mrs. Vorbeis must that she charges really this that
Perhaps one of the reasons is that Mrs. Vorlebsi has devised a secret formula for feeding frogs, and perhaps it is merely the call of the food that makes the frogs come in a hurry. Mrs. Vorlebsi thinks not. She believes it is her power over the frogs. She believes their memory, their intelligence, their memory, their affection for persons they like and their marks antipathy for those they don't like.
Mrs. Vorkhela has named some of her most responsive frogs. They include Raincoat, Cook-eye, Butter, Blind Boy, Chameleon, Snake, and Water Lizard. Each one will respond to its name.
The "frog woman's" power over her pets is especially conspicuous in winter time. When the water is cold the frogs embodied themselves in the mud at the
