YOU CAN'T MOB WAR
Is it fair to draw an analog between the spirit that prevails in a strike and the attitude that people have when they enter into a war? Is it not reasonable to believe that the same persons who will follow the banner of peace in a parade against war may also foll low the fug when war is declared
If persons who are so desirous of putting on a demonstration to end war would allow their energy to be spent in a more peaceful way it is quite likely that a more lasting effect could be obtained. A strike has all of the symptoms of war.
Back in 1917 there were mass meetings and appeals to young men to go off to war. There were parades and bands. People cheered and the boys fell into the parade. It is easy to get folks into a parade.
Then too, there can be doubt a to the sincerity of persons who will demonstrate their feelings be hind a banner and a band—when they are cutting an 11:30 class A parade at 4 o'clock in the morning or even in the afternoon would do much more to demonstrate the sincerity of the students than one at an hour that allows a large per centage of the students to cut a class.
The Kansan does not believe in war. It is so peace-loving that it has been criticised for its stand. It has constantly upheld the cause of peace in its columns, and as a newspaper is determined to continue that stand. The Kansan is not willing to yield to the kind of hysteria that causes war, because it does not believe that it can accomplish the ends which are desired.
The sincerity of the leaders of the Strike against war is not "on the pan" by this paper. It is rather that the paper believes they are hurting their own cause. In the end they will have accomplished nothing except putting on a performance that will demonstrate to the persons who might be interested in war that the great crime of 1914, and for us of 1917, can be repeated. Many persons who will carry a banner can be cheered into waving a flag. You cannot mob war.
We still await that classic headline "Riot Breaks Out in Peace Meeting."
A GOOD USE FOR THE IDENTIFICATION CARDS
Student Identification cards can again be put to use in the election to the men's student council. The cards should be required as identification for all voters.
In years past there have been accusations to the effect that students voted not only for themselves, but for as many persons as they were able to, before their faces became familiar to persons who were sitting on the election
board. Other means of identification have been tried, but the one that offers itself this year is positive.
The Kansan knows that most of the students want an honest election, and feels that it is speaking for the students when it asks that the identification cards be used in voting this year.
THE "STRIKE" AGAINST WAR
In sharp contrast to the stories of howling mobs of European students who express their displeasure of political acts by making as much trouble and effecting as much destruction of property as possible, representatives of 17 organizations at the University of Michigan, meeting the other night to consider a strike against war and fascism, "unanimously veted the proposed strike and took definite steps to conduct a more conservative demonstration."
Indiana Daily Student.
No one wants war, university students least of all. But this does not alter the fact that if war should come, students would play no small part in it. A demonstration against war could accomplish no purpose that could not be arrived at in a saser manner. Student organizations at other colleges and universities might well follow the step taken by University of Michigan students.
A university or college is above all a place for sane, constructive thinking. Mere yielding to the spirit of the mob never has advanced the cause of any worth while project. While the proposed army is unable to resist ardy destruction, it must of necessity, be regarded as a futile step. Opinion against war can not be raised merely by demonstrations or public exhibitions by various groups that, unlike the general public, believe they have solved the problem. The only way to insure the safety of people in the city, by captating the public to its fruitfulness and its terrible after effects.

SPRING LOVE
Two young lovers in the park Spinning lines of polished hooey.

Spiming lines of polished hoes She, the laughing Booas-Doops; He, the gallant Hotcha-Phoebe; the crazy moon was shining.

And He, the gallant Hotchka
Was trying his best to pet her.
But She, the blase Boops,
the giddy, dizzy maiden;
The giddy, dizzy maiden;
Maiden, dizzy, giddy. She
Sat there while the moon was fading.
"Don't you love me, Sugar Pie?"
"No, my dear," she bravely said. "I'm just a trifle wearied
"I just want a nice weekend."
"All winter I've been true to you,"
She candidly went on.
"But now that spring has come again My heart's been won by a Singa-Song."

In regard to the program that the Pachacaeam party has recently endorsed, I would like to review with them and the other students an interpretation of their platform that has been ex-posed by a number of men on this campus.
Articles in this column do not necessarily reflect the opinion of the University Daily Kanun. Articles over 200 words in length are subject to cultiting by the editor.
The "Rising Sun" party, as is noticed, has pledged itself to identically the same program that was so conspicuously reviewed before a recent session of the Men's Student Council. This is about how much it takes, taken because it would be unhealthy for them to stand otherwise. They have followed the usual course that politicians follow—the more they talk the farther they are mired in their own words. After so much of procedure the farther it wakes up and does a little chaning.
CAMPUS OPINION
Editor Daily Kansan
For the first point, concerning the N. S.E.A., which is undoubtedly a fine organization from a Pachacamac viewpoint, I wonder if other students have ever given a thought as to just what the purpose of this program is. Council spent quite a sum sending its delegates to this year's convention that they might draw said convention to this

It is very pleasing to me to see that the Pacachamas recognize that there is a gap between faculty and student body and have so stated because I have been fearful that they did not see it that way. They could be called the Coach of the brunt of faculty refuse, had almost convinced me that the Pacachamas did not recognize the fact. However, whether they could do anything after it after so long playing the part of the paws in the hands of the chess-playing group "higher-up." I am a bit skeptical. It seems that a new group can do more to realize more equality in Student-Faculty relations than the present one that has the reins.

section of the country, the thing which ultimately was accomplished. This is a fine thing some say, an honor to our University to be hosts to the convention next year, and pass it on without further investigation. Just what does the average student know the N.S.F.A. to be and just what does it really accommodate? And the answer here have been the victims of the Student Council's desire to reward their leaders with a nice trip at the expense of the student body?
MRS. J. J. WHEELER, Corresponding Secretary.
The proportional representation that was adopted by the Council was a half-hearted measure to please the opposition that they ran into a year ago. I really don't believe that the Council did this out of sympathy for the opposition, but rather from the fear of being left out in the cold as a result of inactivity.
As far as unification of Student Sentiment, I wish to credit the Council with having consented to let the students have such invigorating meetings as the Hobo Day celebration, the Nightshirt Parade and the Intramural Carnival. And if they have the chance to do so again, if they have this practice next year,

The movies of world news which once held our attention and left us with the feeling that we had gained useful information, now are mureingly padded with "searce" heads and weighted down with the slag of armament propaganda. Of course the world is faced with an international crisis! The people should be constantly informed of the moves of every nation, but hysterical, one-sided

The same "blairy" that was gulped down in such large doses before the War, and which the people afterward wondered how they ever believed, is being administered again—and successfully, judging from the number of the men who continue to sit without protest from picture after picture of war maneuvers.
Peace has small chance when clever international forces take over the moving pictures as well as the press to hand the camera to people in line with their vile schemes.
