SUNDAY MORNING, JANUARY 19, 1936 GET WISE TO YOURSELF Old man winter has opened up again and covered the ground with a snowy blanket. To the farmer it means needed moisture for thirsty fields, to the artists it means the transformation of the landscape into a scene of glistenring beauty, but to a certain group of college students who haven't quite grown up yet, it means only more material for making snowballs. As a result of the activities of this group during the past few weeks, two windows have been broken in the chemistry building and one in the anatomy laboratory. At least two pairs of glasses have been knocked off and broken. Several drivers of cars on the campus have reported near accidents caused by poor vision or diverted attention from solitting snow balls. Throwing snowballs is a grand old institution — for grade school children, but when individuals reach college age and are supposed to possess an adult intellect, childish practices that endanger physical health and damage property should be obviated. American inventive genius has perfected an air - conditioned bed. But sound - proofing the snorer remains a perenially unsolved problem.—Kansas City Kansas. At least the Supreme Court didn't have to bother about knocking out those chain letters.—Cincinnati Enquirer. WE ASKED FOR IT Whether you know it or not, it is possible to compliment or explain a man and his policies without being in favor of everything connected with him or his politics. Take all this ballyhoo, for instance, that is raised about the Supreme Court showing the New Dealers where to off by repealing the NRA and the AAA. It is not at all surprising, in fact it is time to erase them from the books. But what is surprising is the fact that the voters have forgotten what took place when Roosevelt met his first Congress. He asked for and received extreme emergency powers to wipe out the depression, unemployment, and the circumstances that accompanied both. The cleanup campaign started. The New Deal was established. Jobs were created out of thin air; projects that had hated idle because of retrogressive partisan politics started, and unemployment began to decrease. Hurrals went up all over the nation. Then the unemployed began to increase and the cry "The New Deal is a flop" was twice as loud as the previous aplause. The fact overlooked in this instance was that numerous people still had small private resources to fall back on. When hundreds of banks were sunk without a trace, these people were wiped out and relief was necessary. Hunger will kill pride any day of the week. Now the President no longer needs his emergency measures. Unemployment is permanently on the wain; the banks have the creditable backing of the national government to keep them open; and the only way to eliminate the emergency measures is to declare their unconstitutional, and this the Supreme Court is doing. This fact was undoubtedly known to those opposed to the present administration. And what more subtle method could be used to eliminate strenuous competition in a future election than an eternal howl that the President is only two degrees removed from a dictator. This would be quite naturally be followed by "I told you so" when the Supreme Court did what had been planned and replaced the emergency measures. One cannot criticise the Republicans for their tactics, the Democrats would in all probability have done the same thing. The lamentable part lies in the fact that many voters are listening to calamity howlers and losing sight of the fact that the only way to erase measures that have served their purpose is for the Supreme Court to declare them unconstitutional. Thus it is, the repeals are nothing more than what had been planned in the natural course of events and is not leveled against the present administration as so many think. The three inch headlines merely signal the fact that the ballyhoo which accompanies every presidential campaign has started and not the actual election which has failed its duty. The depression is licked. An old-timer is one who can remember when there was some criticism of the government for its extravagance in giving away free seeds—Ohio State Journal. Open Letters to the Editor CHARGES OF STRONG-ARM TACTICS Editor Daily Kansas; Dear Sir: Apparently the mid-week controversy has been satisfactorily settled. I do not want to revive the argument, but I do feel that all the facts involved have not been made public which would justify the position I took on the matter. The Kansan stated the former price paid for mid-weeks to be $45. Mr McCreight's records on Student Organization Funds show the first mid-week cost $10. By 1931 the price was raised to $20. From 1933 to the present the price has been $25. All such dances were for one hour, and were played by twelve musicians. The records of the Auditor also show the Gingham Frolic, an hour and a half dance, was played by twelve men for $10 this semester, less than scale wage, and the Puff Pant Prom, a three hour party, played by 12 men for $40. Apparently the scale applies only to the Memorial Union building. There was another side to the controversy. Since the Musicians Union has been dominated by the two Phipps bands, the leaders of the Union and said bands have continually attempted to browbeat dance managers into running the dances according to their own dictates—or those of Phips. Phil McNight, a former舞者 manager, was ganged and badly beaten because he would not "play ball".Lydel Meyer was constantly harassed with threats for not following their demanded policies. The latest threat was from Joe Griswold, who told the Operating Committee last Tuesday that if the Committee did not accept his "compromise offer" the Union building and the University would be blacklisted, preventing Union Musicians from playing here on the Hill. Because of student insistence, the "offer" was accepted. I do not blame the rank and file of the Musicians Union for such racketeering and gangster methods to further their own aims. They merely follow the lead of their unscrupulous leaders. My fight was against the methods used by Phipps and his henchmen in recurring attempts to run the dances their own way, despite the decisions of those in charge of such activities to the contrary. Would not the Kansan and those students who campigned to return the musicians to the mid-week dances have accomplished more, had they attempted to rectify such a situation, rather than helping them to accomplish their nefarious designs?

GEOLOGICAL SURVEY FINISHES FORTIETH YEAR OF SERVICE New oil fields have been discovered, coal has been shown to exist under certain strata of rocks, lead and zinc fields have been aided in their development, and other mineral resources such as mineral waters, volcanic ash, and rock formations the state of Kansas by the operation of the State Geological Survey. Since 1895 the Geological Survey has maintained continuous identity. The headquarters of the organization are located by statute on the University of Kansas campus. The function of the university is to establish an industrial industry of Kansas in the same way that the State Board of Agriculture assists the agriculture industry. The Survey publishes many bulletins and maps that cover much of the state. These bulletins and maps cover a variety of subjects. The greatest practical use of these materials is for petus it has given to exploration for new mineral supplies. One report of last year on a western Kansas county led to considerable drilling and the discovery of several oil fields. These resources have been similarly added.

(Little, Brown, & Co., Boston). In this book which won the Atlantic Monthly prize for the best non-fiction manuscript submitted in 1855, Mansard Sandoz, the author, tells not only the story of her father, Old Jules, but also the story of a community, the upper section of western Nebraska. You should see the village of the settlers; the few good crops destroyed by droughts; the unmarried men alone in their dark, cold holes, poring over the matrimonial columns of the newspapers; the women, who, when the storms let up in the winter, could not escape the isolation as could the people. In the wind and the cold and the problem of clothing, shelter, food, and fuel. Among these people old Ols Jules worked for 44 years. He was an amazing man, this father of Mari Sandoz, who loved his priest, a visionary, a beast, a madman. Now $1.00 Kallet and Schlink He fought with all the settlers, yet he brought them in as peninsula home-seekers, and struggled against drought. He was determined to make them. He showed them cultivation and gave them the results of his experimentation with fruit. When it seemed that their land would be ruined by sheep, he bought a lot of the land to cover the tillable land of the entire range. He fought the cattlemens until at last they and their agents were sent to the penitentiary. And always he knew always his eyes burned deface.

Mari until she was breathes, he rode a horse for 120 miles without stopping; yet his hand on the twig of a half-grown pewer was gentle, and he was standing there with cholegian and gaze upon the hill overlooked the Running Water and his orchard. His fourth wife, Mary, remained with him. On the first day of their marriage he sat in her eyes full of tears, bitterly抱怨 that she kept back only a little of her savings. You wonder what concept of duty kept living with this man for the rest of his life. I review them from the vantage point of twice knowledge, my eyes mist. A gallant race and I salute them." Miss Sandos is truly an artist. Her style is sharp and vivid, almost hard. Her sensitivity to beauty is exquisite. She can put profound meaning into a few words. She makes her characters she. She emphasizes the true values of her characters, portraits, and she has the rare ability to effect this emphasis by implication. She has sympathy and tenderness for all of nature. She knows what brings the most pain to the human heart. She seeks out the beauty beneath coarseness and bessitality. She well known the role of cause and effect in human life.
