September 17, 1916; at the post office at Lawrence, Kansas SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 19, 1933 "NO SUCH ANIMAL" "Freedom of the Press in Continental Europe," said William Allen White to the high school editors Friday morning, "there's no such animal. When a country abandons democracy it must throttle the press." In the countries which have dictatorships, however, the people have never known the kind of freedom of the press which we know in America. Mr. White described the Russians as a people who "have no such freedom, have never had it, and do not believe that anyone else has it." The fact that most of the people in the countries of continental Europe do not realize that they are being deprived of freedom is probably one explanation of the power which dictators are able to hold there. "When people know the truth," said Mr. White, "they can be depended upon to act. When they don't know the truth, they will follow what they think is able, honest leadership." In America it would seem that one safeguard against a dictatorship in the strictest sense of the word is the fact that the American people, having known freedom of the press, will not allow that freedom to be restricted. ARE STUDENTS PEOPLE? There are two kinds of students who brag about their grades, those who make mostly A's and those who come up with flunks. Now that midsemester grades are going into the university offices, much of the campus talk concerns explanation of grades. It is necessary for the A student to describe how his high marks were made in order to avoid any misconception that he might be an apple polisher. Likewise, the flunkers must tell how they were discriminated against or else how little, after all, they really studied. Strange as it seems, no one at the University will admit that he or she is just a trifle dumb. Those who find themselves up to their ears in flunks usually carry it off with a sophisticated shrug implying—"Boy, do I get around!" SWEDEN'S ECONOMIC SYSTEM A section of Europe which American readers seldom see mentioned in the newspapers is Scandinavia, which has one of the most efficient economic systems in the world and which is one of the most modern sections of Europe. Of these countries Sweden is the most interesting to Americans because its standard of living and its citizens are the most similar to those of the United States Sweden, like the other Scandinavian countries, has an economic and political organization which, although it is not completely communistic, has been able to gain control of the capitalists. The state and co-operative societies here have gradually since 1900 gained control, either by ownership or operation, of about one- fourth of the basic industries. In most cases the co-operatives set up their own factories or industries because capitalistic trusts were charging exorbitant prices and making the consumer pay to the last degree of his buying power. These co-operatives are owned by the majority of the citizens, and not only does a member save by buying from a co-operative, but he also is given a two per cent dividend on all his purchases at the end of each year. Although because of her foreign trade Scardinavia could not completely escape the effects of the depression, her domestic stability made the shock smaller. Sweden and the other Scandinavian countries is an example of what can be done if patience and foresight are employed in building a stable economic system. TOMORROWS HOUSES Copper, flat-roofed houses with garages opening to the street, and drawing rooms looking out on a back yard garden; built-in radios and wood-burning fireplaces—this is the home to which students of 1933 can look forward to conforming their tastes. In this upheaval of all that is old and established today, architecture seems to be one of the first of the arts rearing itself in new form of expression. Drastic as its new forms appear in contrast to the old, there is a promise in it of something basically valuable and fine. Experiments of modern architects in the problem of housing have as their objective better homes financially within reach of all classes. Thus far the experiments have accomplished the first part of this objective. According to T. J. Maloney in the Review of Reviews; the second part is still a vital consideration in the present housing plans for tomorrow. The youth of 1933 may not live to see a nation of people living in this new style home, but it will witness a period of transition when the dreams of architects and the practical needs and tastes of people will coincide. It will be from this that a new style architecture, of American originality, will develop. Campus Opinion Editor Daily Kansan: " . . . male and female created He them." Student publications for the most part play up the boy-girl aspect of college life. Even that is less than skin deep. Most campuses have a need for an interpretation of life with less superficiality and more depth. It is with some degree of pleasure that I read the announcement of "The Gale," which will attempt to supply this necessity. When "The Gale" was first brought to my attention, I immediately accused it of entering an already overcrowded field, but now my viewpoint is entirely changed. We have news-gathering publications from the keyhole-humor type to an enormous memory bookbiblum. All of them are little more than marveling in the field of literary art where the interest is not in the more bronilizing of events, but in interesting events—in recording student literature attempts and in revealing the collegiate mind. C. V. P. Our Contemporaries Adoption by the University of a plan to suspend tuition fees and offer free board and room to students otherwise unable to continue their education may be interpreted as a blow at a fundamental cause of the depression, and deserves to be called to the attention universities generally. The action is in line with a recent ruling at Carnegie Institute of Technology permitting unemployed graduates to take courses at the institution without payment of fees. This plan would seem to offer an effective solution to two of the most difficult problems growing out of the unemployment situation—the problem of being enforced leisure and the companion problem of technological unemployment. PLAN FOR FREE TUTION STRIKES AT HEART OF DEPRESSION In an effort to cope with the first, federal relief agencies have appropriated large sums to be used by state and local agencies for the establishment of schools and community activities designed to absorb the waste power productive power represented by thousands of young men and EKSTETIAN SCIENCE ORGANIZATION OFFICIAL UNIVERSITY BULLETIN CHRISTIAN SCIENCE ORGANIZATION: The Christian Science organization will meet Tuesday afternoon at 4:30 in Myers hall, room C.

Toleration, unless rigidly guarded, means the inevitable return of evils which those of us whose memories run back a quarter of a century do not like to recall. It was only 20 years ago that the saloon, backed by the brewers and distillers, had a throttle grip on local and state governments alike, a grip which it maintained by systematic corruption. As late as 1915 the organized liquor traffic tried to blacklist 49 American firms, including railroads, and manufacturing concerns, which in the interest of efficiency had forbidden their employees the use of intoxicants while no duty. It is scarcely an exaggeration to say that the liquor business, as organized before prohibition, stood for everything that decency was opposed to and against everything that decency desired. Fosdick and Scott do not say upon what they base their hopes, if any, that the liquor business has improved its status since that time—Tokea Daily Capital.

However, in their conclusion they emphasize that this significant and remarkable statement RICHARD PORTER, Secretary. women unable to find work in business, industrial and professional fields. It is hardly necessary to emphasize the economic loss the nation suffers by the widespread idleness of so many trained men and women; and it should be equally apparent that, whether or not there are significant increase results, any plan by which their energies can be stimulated is bound to be beneficial in the long run. The faculty of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences will meet Tuesday, afternoon at 4:30 in the Auditorium on the third floor of the Administration building. E. H. LINDLEY. President. The second aspect of the problem bears more directly on the fundamental difficulty, and it is here that universities may, by following the example of Minnesota, contribute an important service. Technological unemployment, which results from a surplus of trained labor in a particular field, must be solved in one of two ways; either by an increased demand for their services in the field, or by readjustments which will shift the surplus to less crowded fields. This increasing evidently depends on the fact that we have to take certain business and professional groups, notably engineering and the capital goods industries, and there is urgent need of some readjustment which will permit them to enter other fields. Readjustment means, in the final analysis, re-education or better education; and, as the source of higher education, the universities are in the best position to deal with the problem. By making it easy for undergraduates, or graduates trained in an overcrowded field, to continue their studies, they may make it possible for them to reshape their careers along new lines and again become useful members of society.-The Minnesota Daily. In the early part of this year John D. Rockefeller, Jr., who had previously declared himself in favor of repealing the 18th amendment, employed Raymond B. Foslick and Albert L. Scott to make a careful study of the various methods of handling the liquor traffic in all parts of the world and to give their conclusions after this study as to what method ought to be adopted in the United States in the event the 18th amendment should be repealed. LEST WE FORGET Current Screen "Meet The Baron" which opens a three day run at the Patee this afternoon, is the vehicle by which Jack Pearl, well known Baron Munchhausen of the radio, makes his screen debut. Aided by Jimmy Durante, the "world's biggest liar" clowns his way through a highly amusing, completely nonsensical picture. Sporting a moustache and goatee, the Baron takes time enough from his varied adventures in a girl's college to conduct a radio broadcast, just to show how it's done. The story opens with Pearl as Julius, valuet of the real Baron Munchaus, and Durante as his other servant. When the real Baron wants to go into hiding, he has the valet pose as himself and Durante as his manager. New York acclaims them. Pearl broadcasts. The two worthies are taken to the girl's college to lecture. Then all kinds of complications, including a love affair with Zazu Pitts, the head chambermaid, the unmasking of the Baron, and their final reunion, keep the picture jumping from one utter absurdity to another. Durante and Pearl, however, have strong competition for the center of attraction of the picture. Zazu Pitts and Edna May Oliver manage to grab the share of the laurels, and Ted Healy and James, and the GM chorus in its shower manner might increasingly背景 for the antlers of the Baron and his manager. On the strength of his first picture, Pearl must be added to the rapidly increasing list of radio stars who have proven their ability to please the movie public. His familiar "Was you dere, Sharlie?" is just as appealing on the screen as on the air. Notwithstanding the fact that Ripley in his "Believe it or Not" column has proven that a person is heavier at the equator than at the north pole, a certain little miss the other day still insists that it can't be true. Her argument is simple, "Why, silly, —why could you be heavier at the equator when you know darn well you don't wear so many clothes as you do at the north pole?"
