THURSDAY MORNING, SEPTEMBER 19, 1935 TO WARN THE YOUNG The billions of dollars that Congress has appropriated for work relief will have to be paid back sometime. Whether that debt, in the form of bonds, comes due in ten, or twenty, or thirty or fifty years it is the young generation of today on whom the burden will fail. The older generation, those who are so nonchalantly taxing the future incomes of the country, will not have to endure taxes that are overwhelming. They may not even be here to listen to the condemnation of the American citizen who will be paying off the debt incurred by the Congress of 1925. Since it is the younger people of the country who will face the problem of paying back these billions of dollars, they should raise their voice in protest against the expenditure of these appropriations for anything but permanent projects. Since livelihood must be provided by relief work, this work should go into projects that, with care, will last. The erection of school houses, the construction of permanent highways, the grading of crossings are all things that this generation will have to provide sometime during its life. Why, then, should they not be constructed with these billions of dollars, so that additional taxes will not have to be paid for these things at the time when the money now appropriated will be being paid back? It is unfortunate that the government ever considers putting men to work along the side of a highway, cutting weeds, and similar other projects that are entirely temporary, when the only excuse for the expenditure of the appropriations in that manner is to hand out a dole to the men so employed. It is up to the younger generation, the people who will meet the heavy burden of taxation that recent appropriations are providing for, to lift a warning hand when anything but the most permanent kind of projects are considered. They must insist upon projects that will be helpful and useful to them, and that will be lasting enough so that the burden upon them in the coming years will be as small as possible. If they do not, they will find themselves oppressed by the taxation resulting for work that has given them nothing, and with the additional taxes for permanent projects that will be necessary before their lifetimes are finished. Post mortem tribute to a statesman: The Congressional Record without Huey Long will become as dull as the American Mercury became without H. L. Menken—Arch Jarrell in the Arkansas City Traveler.

They Lose Their Rights They Lose Their Rights —The Daily Illini Many of the citizens of the United States have elected to remain in Addis Ababa despite the gathering war clouds. That is their privilege and no one has a right to deny them that privilege unless it be the Ethiopian government. However, it should be made clear to them and to the world at large that they remain in the danger zone under attack. This means that even if there is a lot of difference if each and everyone of the civilians in that country are blowed to small bits when the impending attack happens. Perhaps it would seem that such an attitude is unworthy of a true American and, furthermore, inhuman and heartless. Maybe so, but it would seem proportionately more inhuman and heartless if those in Ethiopia should bring the United States into another world conflict. If such a thing should happen each and every one of them, they would be responsible for more than 10,000 deaths and no one could how many billions and billions of dollars wasted. Surgeons still cut off arms and legs to save the lives of all patients and no one exclaims 'how terrible or how bad' that the attack could be. The nation not leave those who willingly risk their lives to whatever fate finds them, in order to save the nation from the most deadly disease it can have? Perhaps the other option is better than valor, bravery and discretion is the better part of valor. Campus Opinion Articles in this column do not necessarily reflect the opinion of the author. Articles and opinions of authors are lengthy and are subject to cutting by the editor. Contributions are welcome. Editor Daily Kansan: Yesterday a puzzled freshman voiced his bewilderment in regard to R.O.T.C. I should like to give him and all others my opinion which has come from three years on the Hill. The freshman wrote of defending his country. Two terms always arise dealing with this question—patriotism and preparedness. Now let us face this question. If it was war, and we are our country in legalized killing or it is more patriotic world peace. You will be told that the way to avoid war is to be prepared. But history shows us that before the World War every great power was prepared. The United States was a constant propaganda for preparedness and thus the world. In investigating the underlying causes of all wars we find that there are no purely defensive wars. Even the United States entered the World War not "to make the war more just" but to protect money invested in Allied countries, thus making it easier for Joining the R.O.T.C. won't put a person in the same position as Hitler's Brown Shirts, but the R.O.T.C. serves the same purpose in providing a reserve army of cannon armies, using force in building his reserve army the military uniforms used all these associations as a handsome uniform and uses appeal illustrated in the military bells, etc. H.D. Editor Daily Kansan; In answer to Puzzled Freshman, may I present viewpoint of one who has taken work in the ROTC and is proud to have done so. In the first place all this work was accomplished by a blasted forth by a group who must draw attention to themselves through any device possible. The congress declares war, the military forces do what they can to stop it. Through it all, that group to which ACA. empowers them, then the other depending which way the wind blows. The course presented by the Department of Military Science and Tactics, enables any young man who is physically and mentally fit to gain the necessary training and technical knowledge to become a member of that most patriotic organization, the Officers Reserve Corp. True enough, many members do not take full advantage of these opportunities, but to the man who as a patriotic citizen must be able to be of extraordinary service to his country both in peace as well as in the event of national emergency, the R.O.T.C. offers an opportunity not to be passed up. Puzzled Freshman, take work in the Department of Military Science and Tactics. Be the patron that your father is. That training will be of最慷 able worth to you and to your country—LR. Editor Daily Kansan: In these times of international stress the question of peace and war is often uppermost in our minds. It is our generation that will bear the brunt of any war that may be forced upon us. We all want peace. The attitude of the state department in the recent Ethiopian-Standard Oil Concessions affair is indicative of our stand for peace. But can peace be made secure by warlike gestures and military preparations? We want no war with Japan, yet we parade our whole fleet at the Japanese door. In 1895 a naval officer named Seymour "friendly gesture," held maneuvers off our coast. For more than a century we have had cordial, almost fraternal relations. We know some high army officer suggests fortifications for this country. Is it for the purposes of peace and defence that we desire to train college men in the use of arm? Proficiency in the handling of machines promotes their use. Will not it be useful, for example, to train a navy officer? History says yes. The Prussian military machine of the latter nineteenth and early twentieth centuries; the present Japanese military machine, upon which shoulders the responsibility for the bombardment of Shanghai and Guangzhou in 1895; its powerful war machine are but recent examples. Shall we aid in the building a powerful machine in the country—our contribution toward world unrest and war?

Articles of Confederation Provided Unity for Colonies, Graduate Writes "A common error in the histories in the remark that the Articles (of Confederation) failed. Had the Aristocracy fallen apart. As it was, the Articles held the states together under one government—shadowy as it may have been—until the Constitution took off. Therefore, the Articles did not fall." Thus Miss Isabel Marie Julien of Olhae summarizes her study of histories and original documents relating to the drafting and ratification of the Articles of Confederation, immediate predecessor of the Constitution of the United States, in a study recently filed in the department of history at the University of Kansas, in fulfillment of requirements for her master of arts degree. The Articles of Confederation were proposed at the meeting of the Constitutional Congress in 1776, in the wake of the War of Independence, and were completed and adopted by the 13 colonies two years before the conclusion of the war. The Articles were in force, then, from March 1, 1783, through the latter years of the war, and until adoption September 17, 1787, almost 150 years ago. The Articles of Confederation originally numbered 18, and provided a NOTICE All who are interested in the Special Meal Plan---representative legislative body, an executive committee, and set up machinery for collecting money for the common defense.
