SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 25, 1934 CAMPUS PITFALLS That historical facts sometimes came to light in quite an inappropriate manner was evidenced Thursday night when the north cistern in front of Fraser hall stirred from the oblivion into which it had lapsed years ago, by caving in and swallowing up a section of the sidewalk that extended over the pit and a small evergreen that crew on it. Leslie Glass, a special student in the School of Engineering, happened to be descending the steps of Fraser had toward the cistern at the time of the landslide. He had stopped on the landing a moment to speak to Professor M E Rice. Otherwise, probably, he would have been passing over the cistern when the calamity occurred. This is the third of the University's four old water sources which have collapsed in the past three years and have had to be filled in. One of these still lurks beneath its grassy mask, waiting, as it were, to take someone unawares, as the north one so nearly succeeded in doing. The buildings and grounds force is filling in the north cistern, and, although it would require extra time and money to remove the false top from the south one and to fill it in now, it is probably only a matter of time until the work will have to be done, and then it might be too late. YOUTH CALLED TO ACTION It must be a case of "love thy neighbor" when W.S.G.A. adopts the custom of presenting men students loving cups. It is the young men and women who will suffer if war comes again. Your elders will prate of democracy and patriotism, of the glory of "giving all" for the honor of your country. But you will be the ones whose lives will be shattered just as they are beginning. It is up to you to take action, now, while war can still be prevented. There is plenty of peace talk in the air, and it is undoubtedly a good thing, for education is a fundamental part of any peace program. But action is even more important, action which will bring home to the local community and its political representatives the fact that young people want peace, are working for peace. Herein lies the value of such groups as the Peace Action Committee recently organized at the University. It would be very easy for these young peace workers to hold meetings and morn about the horrors of war. It is much harder to do the things they are doing—all the jobs which promise to promote the idea of peace. There's hard work and little glory in putting on peace plays for younger boys and girls. Writing to the congressmen of the state, asking whether they will vote funds to continue the munitions investigations, and getting this information into the papers before election time, brings no reward for the time and labor involved. There are hundreds of jobs like these to be done. big things and little, that gradually hammer the idea of peace into the men and women of a community, into its growing boys and girls, into the men who represent it politically. The young man of today who gives his time and effort to peace work is doing as much for his country as the one who fifteen years ago gave himself up to war, and his service will be that of prevention rather than cure. AIN'T IT A SHAME? So I says to him, he membry steps is terrible when they's snow on 'em and he says to me right back that they affect him the same way five days a week too since he works on the week-ends and can't study at the libery then and he probably wouldn't study on the week-end even if he did not have to work on them anyway. Then he says that last night his foot almost slipped clean through that scaffolding which is called steps over to the libery and if he had slipped through he would probably have broke his leg and then where would he of been. I says to him right away that I sure would have been awful sorry if he had biog his leg because he is a good friend of mine and fellows always feel sorry for their friends when something happens to them, especially if the thing which happens to them is that they fall down the liberty steps and break their leg. So he thanks me for feeling sorry for him even if he did not break his leg and says he's about to go over to some building where these fellows are and ask the libery steps, and I says that's a darned good idea and that they should have been took care of a long time ago. "Student Orators to Air Hill Problems."—headline. Some of them are musty with age, aren't they? POOR LITTLE RICH GIRL The responsibilities of parenthood are not to be passed off lightly; whenever they are the children are the losers. Whether rich or poor, the children are in the same boat when their parents fail to discharge their duties. Apparently the mother of Gloria Vanderbilt neglected the little girl. The resulting court battle has established the winners and losers in the financial aspects of the case, which very likely were the greatest points of contention. Gloria Vanderbilt has probably been given a chance for better development by the court order, but it restricts her freedom and she will always have its shadow hanging over her. Although the famous name and the fortune involved may confuse the issue and have some effect on the outcome, the fact remains that the mother must have neglected her duty in the first place; and harsh as the decision may seem to be to her, the little girl is the biggest loser in the end. This blight on her future is something forced on her. Articles in this column do not necessarily reflect the opinion of the University Daily Kawai. Articles over 200 word in length are only those submitted on any subject are invited. CAMPUS OPINION Indicative of this trend was an editorial from the Daily Illini reprinted in last Monday's Kansan. Its lack of literary literacy would be amusing were it not that the conclusions drawn were so simplistic. It was the "reeds" sole stock in trade as being "race prejudice, tyranny, violence, anarchy." Editor Daily Kansan: Having attained a measure of recovery and attained almost all of its success, the soldiers is now ready to gird its armor and give battle to subservient, "un-American" forces. If Soviet Russia is remembered for nothing else, it will be solely for its racial equality. There, absolutely no racial prejudice exists—it is a major arms. The various nationalities within the state are encouraged to develop their national and racial heritage. The majority of members of the state is as dead as the Czar under whom it flourished. In America, the Socialist and Communist parties are the only two to admit negroes to their ranks on the grounds that they represent the members of the negro race hold high positions. In 1323, the Communist candidate for vice-president, Ford, was a negro. Frank Crosswash, a negro, is the president of the Party and Nahler Walter is another negro who is a member of the National Executive Committee of the Young People Socialist League. How does the charge of race prejudice hold up the status of blacks? Of tyranny—who more than conservatives practice it? We need cully make mention of that slight tyranny thru which a boss holds in his hand the very means of a person's life—thru which his ability to live is gained—a job and that he has the power to resist. With this he can virally enslave a worker; with this he smash the labor union that may be starting up. And if his men refuse to listen to "reason," and go out on strike the Red scarce is taken out of the moth of the work, so that workers can run on the run for God, country (and profiteer). Let's remember too, the Espionage Actions of 1917 and the savage prosecutions of free speech under them; the barring of duly elected Socialists from the New York State Assemblies; the baning of vegetable gardens as being one of the Reds' attributes. suppose that Mo Tmoney in his 1891 year at San Quentin jail is reflecting tonight on the tyranny of his comrades.

My objection to the editorial is not that it criticizes radiologists, who have plenty of weak spots. If the Kkanan wants to give an intelligent presentation of the conservative side, vicious and dishonest editorials of the Daily Illini do not serve that purpose. By Mrs. Iwadie Ferguson at Tulopedia New Bed. I'm glad Kansas did not depart from her tradition. With so much of the country dripping wet in sentiment, the state that made Carrie Nation famous remains dry by popular voice. While the state has a glorious hatched, femininely flattered, hover over America. On with the revue of "Red-Witch Hunting, 1344-1329 style." On shades of Palmer, Lusk, Merriam, Sweet—in your names you'll soon be weeding out tyranny. Big business is fighting with a Chicago Tribune in one hand and to Liberty" in another. Hell and a thousand Fascist salutes for liberty. Stubborn Kansas Kansas today represents something solid, immovable, even severe, which the United States could not very well understand. She has been the butt of many a joke. A Red (And proud of it.) Eastern intellects, bounded on every side by a motely conglomeration of foreign expatriates, jumbled nationalities, men of every cult and color, have read her out of the Constitution many a time. But thank hewn she is still with us, the very core of some of America's American, symbol of the pioneer son. Refusing to be swept by the title of public sentiment or to be moved by thought of material gain, Kansas is faithful to her codes. May I, therefore, prophesy? When the last intellectual of our day has gone communitist or voodoo; when the last ism has been discredited and the last experiment has disappointed, the rugged windwheel of fear of Kansas will be in our midst; but the punishment to a cause that failed but is never lost. While I do not agree with the point of view which causes her to cling to prohibition, I am glad she ellipses. I consider her attitude one of principle and not of expedition. So much may not be said. I think, for the exponents of repel in the days when they were moved far more by personal desires than by artistic motives. But with fanas it is never so. Our Kansas Socialist Past Paul, K.U., graduate in 1928, an ex-editor of the University Daily Kanan and past-president of the Jupwhower Association labor secretary of the Socialist party. The Chicago headquarters of the Soci- society party, U.S.A., is distributing Porter's Commonwealth Plan as a complete alternative to the New Deal program. The new plan calls for nationalization of banks, public utilities and all basic industries including mining and manufacture of steel, textiles and automobiles. Owners of nationalized properties would be required to accept "Commonwealth Bonds" in be paid off in 30 years. The management association would purchase all stable products direct and supervise all processing of foodstuffs. In endorsing his plan Porter declares "The American people want more than mere criticism of the New Deal. They want a plan of action. We Socialists are sharply opposed to the artificial scarcity fostered by the NRA and the AAA. We want to operate facades and factions at full capacity in order to give everyone a job in society. We want to make the comforzers of life. The Commonwealth Plan outlines a practical method of putting this goal into effect." This shira challenge from the left, however radical, is more straightforward than Singh's EPIC plan which folded up when Raymond Meles advanced Roosevelt to advise Fletch to advance on the job she had acted without advisement.
