'Thank You'--CSEP
Students Sign Letters to President Roosevelt
All students who are employed on federal projects on the University campus are signing a letter which is to be sent this week to President Roosevelt, expressing their appreciation for the assistance the CSBP has given them and expressing the hope that may be possible to continue the project next year.
It is understood that similar letters are being signed in other state institutions, and in state and denominational schools of Kansas.
Following is the letter:
My Dear President.
LAWRENCE, KANSAS. WEDNESDAY, MAY 23, 1934
we, the undersigned, as CSEP workers and as members of the Self-Supporting Students Association of California, press our appreciation and thanks for the opportunity that has enabled some of us to remain in school, and some of us to help others to fill out what would have otherwise been an skool out and an academy.
We are unanimous in hoping that you will be able to see the way clear to continue the CSEP next year.
In addition many of us have learned a new speciality, which undoubtedly will be of aid to us after graduation. We feel that the CSFP has been one of the most valuable successful projects of your administration.
Sincerely yours,
(Signed by all students working under the CSEP at the University of Kansas).
CWA Artists Recalled To Decorate Museum
Evolution of Animals i Kansas Will Be Shown in New Panels
Called back to continue the painting of backgrounds and murals for Dyche Museum when it opens next fall, the CWA artists, Miss Isabel Schreiber, Misty Loehr, with a graduate of the Kansas City Art Institute, resumed work today.
The artists first started in January and worked until April 28. During that period different panels showing the evolution of animals in Kansas from the Cambrian age to the Pleistocene age were created. The fossil cases to show the natural habitat of the animals when they roamed the plains.
One panel pictures several large Uintahiensiums, now extinct; several horses, which at that time were only 12 to 15 inches in height; several small monkeys, so small that they are playing on twigs of a bush about the size of the common spirea; and a squirrel about the size of the squirrel today, in a picture near a lake surrounded by flooded grasses. There are numerous in Kansas during the Eocene age, or approximately 20,000,000 years ago.
The painting of the development of the horse will occupy most of the artists' time during the next several weeks. The painting will exhibit the growth of the animal and will show changes in his stature from the beginning until the time he was first used as a domesticated animal.

This Year's Exchange
The talks given by Warden Amrine, who was formerly in charge of the Kansas State penitentiary in Lansing and who is today recognized as being one of the leading authorities on criminology in the country, were straight-forward discussions of the present day system of dealing with violators of law.
"In our penal institutions today there
"The trouble with our present system of penology is that we handle criminals on an emotional basis rather than with an attitude of reason, intelligence, and understanding sympathy," Warden M. F. Ainrue of the federal penitentiary of Fremont said in his addresses given before classes in journalism this morning.
"In the past 50 years we have made no improvements in our mental, moral and spiritual handling of criminals," she said. "Emotionally rather than intelligently."
"Criminals," he said, learn a cross section of society. They are not always poverty stricken people as we are often led to believe. Rather, they constitute types taken from all classes of society, and differ from other individuals only in the fact that they have criminal tendencies.
Each year a University of Kansas student goes to Germany, and a German student comes here for a year of study.
German Exchange Again Made Possible by Gift
Anonymous Donor Provides Fund for Fellowship Continuation
Heads of the departments have been asked to suggest suitable candidates from among the motors in their divisions, and most of the candidates are expected to come before the committee in this way. Any student who is qualified will be considered, however, if he applies to the committee directly. The candidates selected during the past four years have been unmarried men, graduates of the University, whose scholastic record is commendable. Considerable emphasis has been placed on their social and personal qualifications, enabling them to represent the University creditably abroad.
The Committee making the recommendations to the Chancellor consists of Dean F. B. Stouffe, and Profs. W.J. Baumpartner, H.B. Cady, H.B. Hungerford, B.A. Nash, H.C. Thurrau, and J. H. Nelson, chairman.
The Exchang Fellowship was first arranged in 1930, and the German students who have been here are Johann Frederick Wiedemann, Alfred de Chapaureau, Werner Brückman, and Heinz Puell, now in the University. In 1932-33, Dr Otto von Neumann, a friend and mentor of the University, made it possible for George Brandan, another German student to attend the University.
Cruelty in Prisons Gone, But Methods Are Still Unintelligent, Asserts Warden
Chancellor Lindley has just received word that money will again be provided by the anonymous donor making possible the German Exchange Fellowship next year. The committee on the German Exchange is now on the point of considering applicants for the appointment.
Harold Allen, 31, is now in Germany as the exchange student from the Uni-
are as many doctors and lawyers in proportion to the number of prison inmates as there are doctors and lawyers in proportion to the number of citizens outside prison walls," he said.
To prove his point that criminals are not all from the poorer classes, Amrine cited the fact that in one of the prisons in which he has been employed the prison commissary did a $8,000 business among ¥,000 inmates in one year.
Should Revise Parole System
In the opinion of Mr. Amrine, the system of parole should be revised. A parole board composed of upstanding business men appointed by the governor should not have charge of deciding the fates of criminals after they get into prison. Instead, the penologist said, a good parole board should be made up of a psychiatrist, a psychologist, a penologist, a doctor, and a broad-minded business man. This sort of parole board would be better qualified to handle criminals than are most of the boards appointed by state governors. Amrine declared.
"Of all causes which combine make a man into a criminal, environment is most important," the speaker said. He did not try to deny the importance

Activity Fee Plan Has Good Surplus For Second Year
Band Tour, Party and Identification Pictures to Be Paid For From Reserve Fund
The condensed financial statement of the student activity fee for 1833-'34 has been issued and shows that no deficits exist from the plan and a reserve carried forward for next year.
As a safety measure in the first year of the plan, the activities a year ago made their budgets on the basis of only 90 per cent of the minimum they had hoped to receive from the activity ticket.
Expenditures Approved
The net income, available for distribution to the participating activities, which was $35,700.71, was only 92 percent of the minimum amount which these activities expected to receive under the terms of their agreements with the joint council committee. If the activities had counted on the full minimum in making their budgets, several deficits would have existed which would have had to be paid from the reserve fund.
Expenditures from the reserve fund of the activity fee that were approved by both student councils are the $100 that was used to take the band to Nebraska for the Nebraska-Kansas football game and an activity party which is to be given in the Memorial Union building Saturday evening as an extra feature of the plan and the cost of which is estimated at $150.
Two hundred dollars has been proposed as the sum to be set aside for the identification photos which are to be put on the activity books. Yesterday at the meeting of the activity commission two local photographers were interviewed concerning the cost per student and indications are that the cost will be lower than the 10 cents originally planned. The contracts have not yet been let.
Suggest More Free Parties
The other recommendation made was that the two councils adopt a schedule of free parties for next year. It was suggested that two parties be given, one near Hallowe'en and the other in the spring. The reason for asking the councils to make these matters now in order that the dates may be included in the K book.
Two recommendations were made by the committee yesterday. Allen Crafton, professor of speech and dramatic art, asked the commission for $153 which, when added to the fund that he already has as a surplus pumps out $100 more aid, will enable to bring the famous Jitney players here on the activity ticket next year.
There will be another meeting of the activity fee commission at 4:30 Thursday afternoon in the office of Henry Werner, men's student adviser, to make the decision as to who will take the pictures for the activity books.
