THE PUBLISHER RESIGNS THURSDAY, APRIL 11, 1935 Joe Doctor, Publisher of The Kansan since February 22, submitted his resignation from that office at a meeting of The Kansan Board Tuesday afternoon. The issue at stake was a matter of interpreting the power of forming policy. The immediate difficulty was the Publisher's feeling that recent editorials did not represent his view on the peace strike planned for this Friday. Mr. Doctor submits the following statement to The Kansan: My resignation is in no wise due to the fact that I am in favor of war and against the cause of peace. I stand for orderly and intelligent methods of working for peace, but I cannot favor any movement dedicated to the disorder of disrupting the conduct of educational institutions, which are not supposed to be the ground for any private group to organize strikes. The Kansan Board has voted six to seven in favor of supporting the action of the strikers, which I feel gives the school the precedent of letting any group of individuals, whether they be Democrats, Republicans, Fascists, or Socialists have the privilege of calling students out of class on strike on any pretext whatsoever. Joe Doctor Readers of the Kansas City Times' account of Joe Doctor's resignation from the Kansan Board should be set right on a point or two. The Board did not "persist in its policy of advocating a University 'strike' Friday as a demonstration for world peace," as The Times said. It never had such a policy. The Board recognized the strike as an effort toward the cause of world peace. IRON, BLOOD, AND PROFITS The Columbia Spectator, student paper of Columbia University, recently charged that Dr. Nicholas Murray Butler's pronouncement condemning Friday's student peace strike was typical of the interests which the trustees of the University represent. "This action on the part of Dr. Butler was furthermore characteristic of the actions of a man who turned Columbia University into an armed camp in 1917," said the paper. The corporations of which the trustees are directors, says The Spectator, include the Remington Arms Company and the United States Steel Corporation. Doctor Butler was also named as corporation director. The president of Columbia continued further with a reiteration of his belief that the United States should support the World Court and take a more active part in international cooperation. Answering this statement, the students asked the pertinent question: "Is Doctor Butler aware of the fact that his own faculty long ago laid bare the illusion that pacts, courts, and international conferences could stop the war surge?" When confronted with the student arguments, five trustees of he university scoffed and termed he reasoning "ridiculous and childish." Is it childish for anyone to take a definite stand against a system which predetermines the fate of the citizens of the world to a mass death in fighting the battles of a few selfish interests? Certainly there is no joke to the grim besti-lities of conflict. Maybe the student proposal to strike at Columbia is the only means of calling attention to the existence of an impending fact—war. rectors of Columbia University is The selfish attitude of the discernially indicative of the policy followed by our industrial leaders. If someone questions their attitude of discreet silence as regards the actual horrors of war, they at once advance the charge of childish prattle. War is anything but childish prattle. Its imminence is a reality. Perhaps this fact cannot be impressed upon the minds of the public other than by means of a mass demonstration. Why should we side with a group of self-centered, profit-seeking business leaders, who believe that suppressed peace movements would mean a few million dollars in armament and supply exploitation?

Campus Opinion Editor Daily Kansan: The next peevice will probably be heard within a few days. It will concern the Kansas Relays. The authorities have seen fit to have the relays during the Easter vacation. We venture to say that they would have not done it, because they have the money from the tickets, they would be more considerate of the students' wishes. In a recent issue of the Kansan we read of another student voicing his opinion against the student activity ticket. Joseph Sutton is suing the Union operating committee to collect damages for being forced to pay ten cents to be admitted to the mid-week vacancies. This peeve is only one of many against the whole idea of being forced to buy the activity ticket. The Kansas Relays are the one thing on the Activity Ticket for the spring sessentier that appeals to the students When students want to go home for a well deserved vacation and also wish to the reef, it is plain to see that they Lawrence's Bargain Theatre PATEE 10c - 15c A New Romantic Team Flashbok Across the Screen in the Picture Sensation From the Stage Success.
