European Turmoil May Tear Down Civilization
(Continued from page 1)
in speaking of our industry, "but it is being stubbornly bolstered up and retained by vested financial interests."
He pointed out that Roosevelt is moving toward socialism as shown by his regulation of security markets and guarantee of bank deposits, yet his very conservative moves are being bitterly fought by Wall Street.
Lack Economic Organization
Lack Economic Organization.
"Why, our only decent move is to ward democratic socialism," she asserted. "Otherwise all we have to do is maintain capitalism, largely monopolistic, and probably hold on the lid with some Fascist distraction!"
"On the other hand," he said, "it would be possible to organize our economic system in such a way that the American people could live 35 per cent better than they lived in the most prosperous period of American history, either 1920, or '28 and '29.
"However, if the machinery and technological knowledge which we have today," he continued, "we put under proper organization, we could develop a nation of beautiful cities such as the world has never seen, of comfortable farms, of more and better museums, libraries and schools, and with adequate hospital facilities. Fine music and pictures would be available to all, there would be beautiful forest reserves in all parts of the country. Lakes and公园 parks would be so numerous that Kansas could afford a hundred Tonganoxies.
Slums could be cleared and beautiful apartment houses built for the common people, while a reasonable leisure would be assured to all.
Praises Skill and Equipment
Praises Skill and Equipment
"Indeed, he continued, "we have the most wonderful technical equipment and skill the world has ever known, and an abundance of natural resources in rich land, coal, oil, and lumber—in fact, all needed for a good life for everyone."
According to Mr. Ise there are infinite possibilities for utilizing labor which is now being wasted, and herein especially, he thinks, lies the instrument for our economic advance. But he added that any system which we think will be used in countries will have to be one which has moved some what toward socialism.
"The main reason," said Ise, "that we do not possess this higher living standard at present is a 'cultural lag' which exists among our people, and the whole world. We have advanced rapidly in building our technical knowledge, but in economic and social philosophy, we have lagged at least 100 years. And to retard our progress, the those interests which under the old crumbling capitalistic system have waxed rich and powerful have fought every effort to develop an economic philosophy which will fit our technology."
Economic Philosophy Necessary
Economic Philosophy Necessary The only solution, according to Prof. Ise, is a sudden and fast advance of the mass of American citizens in economic philosophy. He said that we must develop an economic philosophy which will utilize the tremendous productive capacity of our country. He felt that although a few men have already done so, the people must reach an economic knowledge corresponding to the present technological advance in order that their leaders may act with public understanding and sanction.
Mr. Ise declared, however, that there are numerous encouraging factors in our present situation, foremost among them the competence of our leaders in Washington with their experimental attitudes so conducive to progress, the better personnel that business and government are assembling from the young people of today, and the general integrity of our people.
Kansas Legislature Lauded
"It we attain to the fine life which we our right," assented John has, "it will be because the average American has studied the question with sufficient interest, care, and open-mindedness to understand the technical Frankstein we have built up, and to put it to work again."
In conclusion Mr. Ise commented that he is especially proud of the Kansas legislature and the way in which the governor met the situation of the last few years.
"No state has met this situation better, and I can't think of any which have met it as well as has Kansas, he said. "Our legislature has displayed a high class attitude on problems that are sane, judicious, and forward-looking."
Ester Holcomb, '31, has been appointed as instructor of English in the high school at Baldwin, for the rest of this semester.
New Rifle Scores Lower Than Past Week's Firing
More Powerful Shells Are Cause of Decrease, Engle Believes
Scores turned in by both the men's and the women's University rifle teams for matches scheduled for the week ending March 10, were the lowest that have been fired for any of the matches hold so far this year. Sergeant C. E. Engle coach of the teams, believes that the use this week of a more powerful shell which makes the gun harder to hold steady at the moment of firing, was responsible for this falling off in the scores.
A single 98 was the best score posted by any of the women's team members, as contrasted to two 100's and two 99's fired the week before.
An upset in last week's firing was thd failure of Mary Louise Beltz, fa'38, who topped all women shooters in both previous matches, to land among the ten high scorers.
Following are the ten highest score
possed for last week's matches: Margaret
Hays, fa' 35, 88; Rowena Longhere, c' 34,
97; Patricia Arnold, c' 35, 97; Dorothy M.
Brinker, c' uncle, n° 6; Peggy Sherwood,

Mae M-Coy, c' uncle, n° 59; Kalita Kickend-
bler, b' 34, 95; and Kathaleen Boucher,
b' 34, 94. Total, n° 959.
Women's Rifle teams of five schools were included on the schedule of matches for the week ending March 10. They were: the Universities of California, Wichita, Indiana, Illinois, and George Washington.
Only three matches are scheduled for this week end, Washington University, Northwestern University, and Cornell University.
TONIGHT ENDS TOMORROW
An upset also occurred in the firing, done by the men's team when R. H. Graves, c'uncl, who had the highest score in the team's two previous matches, fell to fifty place in last week's rankings. The ten high scores fired by the men's team included the following: Nolele, c'35, 361; James A. Mandigo, c'34; 344; Herman Williams, c'uncl, 344; Jay W. Mamanaker, c'43, 442; R. H. Graves, 331; Donald M. Smith, Chever, Edi, Eldar D Leigh, c'35, Chever, Wiley, c'35; John J. Scales, Chever, c'36, 315; and Holtzapple, c'34, 307. Total, 3319. This is total thirty-four points less than the score shot for matches of the preceding week, and twenty-five points lower than scores for the match scheduled three weeks ago.
Opponents of the Men's team to whom these scores were sent are: New Mexico Military Institute, John Hopkins University, the University of Wisconsin, Michigan State College, Iowa State College and the University of Vermont Opponents for this week's schedule are: Carnegie Institute, Lehigh University College of New York, and Kemper Military Academy.

W.S.G.A. Comedy Proves Successful at Opening
her, George Taylor, e35, took very well the part of a frenzied director, harassed by problems of the show. And a double-up presentation of old "mellerdrammer" in "Two of a Kind" had its basis in a purported dissertation in the cast.
The singing of Mary Louise Beltz, fa38, and the women's quartet helped considerably to counteract the almost wholly comedy effect of the revue, but if the sample presented by the men's comedy quartet is in any way like the harmony in fraternity and rooming houses, it is no wonder that 8:30 classes have that haggard look.
KFKU
The music was not as successful as was the book of the show, although the song "College Daze" might linger in the memory awhile and the orchestra, under the direction of Tom Ryan, faeld, held up its end successfully.

nobleman, and investigation followed which proved them both false.
Because the "Count" was told that Lawrence was a hard town in which to become known, he came here a week ago yesterday to prove himself and his betting friend that he would become a "hit". Mr. Cummings, chief of police, sent him to the CWA workers. Mr. Leihy thought that because the Kaiser, when exiled from Germany, cut wood, he would follow his example in Lawrence. This would also help establish his reputation for honesty here in the city.
(Continued from page 1)
Several of the more prominent men of Lawrence offered assistance to the "Count." He was treated as a royal heir, clothes, meals and money were given him. Nothing was too good for Count Paul Gregory Herschel von Leibnitz, the only titled Jewish boy in the world and a direct descendant of Jacob Herschel. His story was told in a German bogue that was fascinating and interesting.
Time to Escape, He Decides
According to Mr. Leiby, his most nervous moment came at the time of his visit at Dr. Max Goldman's office in Kansas City. He related that he was sitting in the doctor's outer office and he overheard the conversation which was to the effect that his case had been diagnosed as psycho-neurasia and that he would be sent to a psychopathic ward for treatment. The "Count" said he realized then the game was up and that he would have to do something quick, so he ran down eight flights of stairs and retired to the home of his friend in Kansas City.

Thursday — ANNA STEN in "NANA"
Well-Treated by Citizens
Last night Henry Leiby was a dinner guest at the Kappa Alpha Theta house to fulfill an engagement of a few days previous when, as Count Paul Gregory Herschel von Leibitz from Berlin, Germany, he was asked to have dinner with them at some future date. Mr. Leiby stated that even though he was no longer a nobleman the Thetas were sporting enough to entertain him as an honored guest. He presented the Theta's with a photograph indorsed "Count Paul Gregory Herschel von Leibitz." At the present time Mr. Leiby is busily engaged in preparing for a theoretical engagement at the Varsity theater the last of the week. He plans to tell the whole story of his experiences in Lawrence, much of it in his German dialect.
