FRIDAY MORNING, OCTOBER 18, 1935 TO THE PEOPLE OF KANSAS To the people of Kansas: Please raise the salaries of our professors. Not that they are starving. They can live on the salaries they are now receiving. But when we lose good professors to neighboring schools thus causing a heavy faculty turnover, which is not conducive to a good faculty, it is time to do something. We, the students of the University, came here to get a good education. Just how can we get that education under present conditions? We are not merely asking for higher salaries for our professors. We want the best men that we can get and we want them to stay here. There is only one way to do that. Pay salaries equal to the salaries of other schools of equal standing. The University of Colorado, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, Ohio State, Oklahoma, Texas, and Wisconsin are all paying higher salaries than are being paid here. In fact, they range from an average of 20.8 per cent higher for instructors to 36.2 per cent higher for professors. And besides that, the number of students for each professor is increasing thereby causing crowded classes and making difficult the matter of personal attention. In 1915 the average number of students per instructor here at the University was 14. By 1932 it had increased to 18 and at the present time is much higher. And poor teaching and research facilities are also instrumental in driving professors to other schools. Naturally a good professor must spend time in reading and keeping up on current advancements made in his particular field. Funds for these facilities have been cut tremendously and even now there is no room in the new library building to place new books and periodicals as they are received. So we must say to the people of Kansas: Better our University so that we can get the education we desire. A cat poisoner will soon be at large in Milwaukee. A trust fund of $40,000 to care for 18 cats until the cats are dead, after which it goes to people, has been created—K, C, Kansan. ACCIDENTS While the matter of safety upon the highway is being discussed, it might be well to note actual facts that have been tabulated by the National Safety Council for the year of 1934. Approximately 78 per cent of the motor vehicles involved in fatal accidents were passenger cars, 17 per cent were trucks, the remainder other types. Official reports showed that only 7 per cent of cars in fatal accidents were defective; careful research however, indicates that vehicular defects contribute in about 15 per cent of the accidents. Five or six per cent of the vehicles in fatal accidents are reported as skidding. Blow-outs figured in about 1 per cent of the fatal accidents. The peak hour of fatal accidents was 7 to 8 p.m. The most non-fatal accidents occurred from 5 to 6 p.m. Fatalities were most numerous on Saturday and Sunday. October had the most deaths in a five-year average. November was second. Four out of five fatal accidents occurred on dry roads. And four-fifths of all fatal accidents occurred in clear weather. Statewide reports show 25 to 30 per cent of fatal accidents occurring at intersections. Drivers between the ages of 18 and 19 years of age have been found to have the most fatal accidents, while drivers 20 to 29 years of age rank next. As college students are included in this age group the report of fatal accidents is nothing for them to be proud of. In fact they should attempt, by careful driving, to change these figures. Members of the League have chosen the side they will support in enforcing sanctions against Italy. Steps must be taken to punish Italy for their aggressive actions and the League almost unanimously has signified their consent to be bound by the covenant. Switzerland has decided to remain neutral. CHOOSING UP SIDES Baron Aloisi, Italian spokesman in Geneva, presented a defense for Italy in a speech before the assembly by stating that his country had been denied a hearing. He said that the Italians had outlined in a detailed memorandum not only its grievances against Ethiopia, but also the judicial and political situation concerning Ethiopia's relation to the League. Neither the council nor committees, during these last months, have taken into account this memorandum. Aloisi also stated that this nonrecognition of the validity of Italian arguments wounded the conscience of the Italian people. His plea however failed to alter the decision of other League members. Austria and Hungary have asserted that they will not support the League in its action against Italy. From this it appears that Austria has at least two allies. This however, presents another problem, namely that of punishing these two countries for failing to uphold the League's action. With England leading the League on the one side, and Italy still following her aggressive policy, a majority of the countries have voiced their decision against Italy. Now all that remains is to decide on some definite form of action. Several million votes undoubtedly await the first candidate whose slogan promises a pork chop in every pot. - Topeka Capital.

Conventions are used throughout the text. Editor Daily Kansan: In the last few issues of the Kansan, I have noticed the "Campus Opinion" column has become somewhat of a "Personal Slender" column. Shouldn't an argument be based upon the principle involved in the controversy rather than resorting to personal derogation to effectuate a hirr opinion? If the Kansan is interested in the moral or intellectual level of a certain individual or group of individuals, Rather than that, I think we are interested in a judicious arbitration of all disputes, considered in the light of open minded and unprejudiced opinion. If this is not possible, I suggest the head bend be changed. Editor Daily Kansan The manager of the theatre opened his mouth. Those words fell from his anistore lips: "Well, listen, fellows. I saw this film served Sunday, and, aside from a little propaganda for the Communists, there's nothing at all you care about." We stuck to our New Republic. "Well, perhaps I could arrange a screening of the show for you," the showman said in an interview on Monday, wrong, no ahead. "We'll come." (We've waited-a whole week today, and no screening in night.) "Another thing," the courteous gentleman said, "Till you give me a campaign book for you to look over. Jim, go get one, with the seal." We said good-bye, and while waiting for the screening, I looked over the book. One quotation was in the editorial column yesterday.

There is a whispered rumor about the campus that Professor Crafton and his production staff in Fresher theatre are about to be defendments in a case involving shattered nerves, loss of appetite, and a state of perseverance. A young lady who made an after-dark skirt to the stage of the University playhouse. After-Dark Visit to Playhouse Stage Brings Chills and Shivvers to Coed The facts of the case closely resemble in their mysterious detail, the shadowing atmosphere that is found in the pages of Poe. It was the evening of October 13. The theatre was darker than usual, and the curtain was lowered to the foullights, while full moon made a glow light across the auditorium. The girl entered. Two weeks before she had failed to receive a cooveted joint in the coming production of *False Gate*'s and as she conceived her work, she had been coming to the theatre each evening between **$20** and **7** to sit in the darkness and protest that she watched herself play. On this particular evening, however, the solace of the dark was not enough, and dreams cried to become reality. She wished she had been able to stay in the stage. She believed the know how to raise the curtain. It would be satisfying to actually step onto the stage and pretend that she was playing to a full audience, held广场-bound by her charm. While she wasn't exactly frightened, she was admittedly disturbed. She turned, and trying to make for a way back, she saw her brother. She became confused, and discovered, in She moved hesitantly toward the rear of the stage. It was chattered than she had thought. She moved still further, paused and listened. She thought she heard a sound like low breathing up high among the flys. Uproot-the-soil-post-days are over at Southern California. Last year, Southern Cal didn't have an outstanding team and they were beaten frequently on their home field.

They believe that it will take a howling victory to break these down. Mr. Mussolini does things in a ther- outhern fashion. He starts at the bottom and works up.

Package of ten fits in purse Only a few women knew dark stage of a University playhouse. It wouldn't have been so bad if the breathing sound had been there too. It seemed to follow her about, the warm air of it touched her neck. Its warmth seemed to be reaching out, and seemed to be reaching for her. Wildly she fluttered this way and that. The strain was becoming too much. RICKERD-STOWITS Drug Co. She knew that in a moment she was going to screen. But she didn't want to screen, because there was probably nothing there, and then she would feel awfully silly. She paused audaciously. She felt something. It felt like a stomach. It hurt her. It hurt her arm. And then a terrible bruise he heard. He breathed the hearing . . . "THE REXALL STORE" 847 Mass. Phone 238 There is no doubt that she screamed. Someone turning on the stage lights a moment later found her clapping the hands of an Egyptian goddess who will preside in the Kumaas Players' production of "False Gods."
