POLITICS AT SUB-ZERO
The hydrant walkers' crew in a nearby municipality suggests to us that sometimes government, even in universities, can develop odd forms. The job of these hydrant walkers (did you ever see one?) is to cover certain territory during cold weather and report frozen hydrants. A friend, resident in the city for twenty-three years, never saw a hydrant being inspected.
The case of the poor hydrant walker helps us to clarify our views on student government. With the announcement of a new "party" (they resent the machine-sounding terms), we want to know what they will do with the present "hydrant walkers." Until the new group, or any group, advances a constructive and full program of government, we will consistently question all parties.
The requirement of any proposed reform in government must be the elimination of usualess and harmful functionaries. What we stand for is the abolition of hydrant inspectors. Know what we mean?
From the Missouri Notes column of the Kansas City Times reprinted from the Sedalia Capital, this paragraph: "William Allen White, famed Emporia, Kansas editor and sage, says no newspaper man should hold public office. We certainly agree with him, as on virtually everything he says. But did Mr. White come to his conclusion before, or after, running for governor of Kansas several years ago?"
IN DEFENSE OF MR. WHITE
The Kansas remembers, if the Sedalia Capital does not, that when Mr. White ran for governor of Kansas in 1924 on an Independent ticket, it was only after he had tried vainly to induce three different men to take the candidacy, and could not, and that he did not himself expect to be elected. The important fact, however, was that he was doing it for a cause, to keep the Ku Klux Klan out of Kansas politics and that he won his objective.
The system of treatment of convicted criminals in this country has often been criticized by the general public, but nothing seems to have been accomplished in the way of remedy for existing conditions.
"JUSTICE"
Most recent among condemnations of our legally established social protection is the charge of favoritism. The latest appearance of this phenomenon is in connection with the country's most publicized criminal, Hauptmann. Reports come from the death house in the New Jersey State prison to the effect that Hauptmann is being granted special privileges. Among these alleged deviations from established rule are special concessions regarding smoking,
admission of visitors, and the provision of two mattresses.
The prisoners' criticism of the presence of special guards, which provide company for the condemned man, should be dismissed, because the temperament of the Bronx carpenter might lead him to commit suicide.
As a result of these alleged exceptions to the rule, the prisoners in the death house have commenced a hunger strike. Are they justified, and have they any right to complain? The answer is obvious. They do have a right to complain. If three men are sentenced to death for three different crimes, that is no reason for difference in treatment. If one is entitled to more consideration than the others, the penalties should vary.

"Handy for Students"
Have you girls ever investigated this situation? And have you ever attended a council meeting on a Tuesday evening at 7 p.m. in room 5, Memorial Union building? No, you haven't—and neither have you. Yet, you sit back and gripe that someone is putting something over on you—passing bills behind your back that you have to put up with. Do you women have to be reminded again that you are all members of the Council, and are welcome to sit in an Council meetings? Let's hope not!

Editor Daily Kansan:
A good many students have said that student government is worthless and should be given up as it isn't doing any good. These students don't seem to realize the purpose in having student government, which is to try and let students run their own affairs as much as possible.
Since the Kansan has launched its attack on student government at the University I have heard several comments that should be corrected.
Perhaps student government hasn't

Sunday-Monday—"Maybe It's Love"
Our student councils are almost entirely responsible for bringing the Ted Shaw dancers here in an effort to have a better concert series during the second semester. On the other hand, the councils fell down in letting the Kansas Relays be held during Easter vacation.
Student government would, no doubt, be more effective if the W.S.G.A. and M.S.C. were combined into one small organization. It would be able to stand on a definite program with the backing of both men and women.
