GREATER THAN EVER FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 22, 1935 "The Constitution is gone," says Supreme Court Justice McReynolds. Gone because the Supreme Court upheld Congress in its power to fix money standards? What is the Constitution? Is it a document humanity must obey, or is it a document that must obey humanity? Are we to be slaves of a government, or is the government to be our obliging servant which adjusts itself to our needs? Many another nation has no written constitution to bind it to certain channels from which there can be no escape except revolution. Government is "of the people, by the people, for the people," not the masterwork of the people. If Justice McReynolds had said, "The Supreme Court is gone," then he would have cause for long face. It is not the Constitution that we need worry about, it is the men on the Supreme Court bench. The Supreme Court measures with justice and reason the functions of our legislators. If the majority of the justices say the gold clause is all right, it must be all right. Such legislation was needed at a time when the country was at the crisis of depression. What kind of a constitution would it be that would stand in the way of the welfare of the nation? The Constitution is not gone. It is still there, adjusting itself to the needs of the people over which it stands guard. One of the greatest criticisms of the document is its rigidity, but the recent decision has erased that. It has proven itself stronger than ever in the light of the nation's needs. Along with the earliest robins has come the activity in the sea of mud that serves as a front yard for Watson library. Buildings and grounds department gardeners have outlined what will one day be copies of cool green shrubberry. English and journalism majors are already beginning to wonder how the plotted shrubberry beds will affect the paths beaten with so much difficulty toward various parts of the campus. On look at the derby hats, the natty suits, and the general impeccable appearance of the members of the Kansas City Philharmonic orchestra which visited our campus, and college men begin to realize that they are not ultrafraultra in the matter of dress. Campus Opinion Editor Daily Kansan: As a member of the Kayhawk Club I do not know whether pride or disappointment is uppermost when I contemplate the political career of this organization. I do know, however, that I feel a touch of sentimental regret at the passing of the old Oread-Kayhawk party. My grief is lightened by a vague belief in Carlyle's idea that "all death is a boon" from the Phoenix fire death into the newer and better." So I have not been so badly affected by the decrease of the party as it has existed, but that I have been able to compose this lament, elegy, epitaph, or what 'have you: Weep for our O-K's. Lo, they are no more And weep, ye Oreads, both barbs and frat men. Weep, civic virtues, tall men, als Kayhawk withdraws from the political core. Let us all mourn, for though it was a bore. How charmingly re-echoed through our den (The Union basement) cries long in our ken. our ken. "May the bad frat machine exist no more!" The ashes rest in a lamented urn, I do these rest, united, mourned. Long may they rest, in merited re- pose For Kayhawk has done much since its first breath— Released the barb, who knew no where to turn. And fairly wrestled with the blank-blank foes. A new and better thing comes from this death. this death. A. Kaybawk A Kayhawk. COMMENTS —By the Editor JENNIE LEE SAYS WAR Jennie Lee is a famous English politician, expert in statecraft by the virtue of two elections to Parliament and a brilliant mind. If she says Europe cramming for another war, we support her, she know what she is talking about. But as we paused today to watch Mr. Van Horebeek lay a chalk line around a future shrubberry bed, we began to wonder what "Van" thought about it. He is a Belgian, you know, he was a soldier in the army that held up the German advance for 10 days. "Van" is not given to pessimisms, and his talk is straightforward enough to sound logical. When quenched on the subject of future war, he said "No" with a positiveness that would be even such sureness as Jennie Lee's. Van says that Europe has not forgot ten the last war—that the people realize nothing can be gained through war. As to militaristic dictators, Van believes they are doing the best they can, and that they are not half so militarized as the enemies wield on them on the last great battlefield, and as we are made to think. Now "Van" is no statesman. His business is to see that flowers grow on Mt. Oread in spite of the inconsiderate feet of students and the swift uncertainties of Kansas weather. But the view, as the opinion of one who has no political views to sir other than his own sense of what is right. POLITICAL RUMBLINGS Campus opinions have come tumbling in concerning the Hill political set-up. Either the Oread organization is trying our pages for a little free pre-campaign publicity or there is considerable feeling against the present regime, for they have all been decided pro-Oread-Kayhawk. We would like to see a few letters to the editor from the Pachacamacs. Being aloft from the cries of the rabble can be carried too far. Witness the G.O.P. PROFESSOR HOWEY AGREES WITH COURT We do not know if Professor Howey would take the job or not, but if he had been on the Supreme Court bench the decision would have been six to three in favor of the right of Congress to legislate on the gold standard. He would be as always, guarding the recent action of the Court. "Reasonable and good." Sometime when you have nothing else to do go over and bother Fred Ellsworth. Ask him to name a few of the alumni of our University who are out setting the world on fire in the old Horatio Alger style. You will find Mr. Ellsworth is almost bowed down by the weight of the responsibility of corresponding with famous people. You may feel you can name, has Kansas men near the top. Some of us who feel that perhaps college isn't worth it after all should feel differently an interview with the Alumni secretary. ALUMNI TO THE FORE The Daily Northwestern has started a drive on the "ismis" such as Communism, Nazi-ism and Facism. It's nice Kansas isn't bothered with such things, and all we have t worry about is jackrabbits. ROCK CHALKLETS Conducted by R.J.B.

We read in the papers that it took someone three years, four years, too, to wear out a Virginia mule. We think it must be an excellent idea for some Kansan reporter to interview the first robin as to his ideas. The first one is another of those else has something to say about it.
