WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 11, 1933 HOW DO YA STUDY, JOHN? Last week library officials submitted figures to the Daily Kansan showing that by closing the library at 9 o'clock they are saving $500 a school year, but by following the suggestion of the Kansan to close during the dinner hour the library would economize only four student hours. The director of libraries explains this small saving on the ground that only four assistants are on duty from 5:30 to 7:00 and that the extra help necessary for the closing and reopening would consume two of the hoarded hours. Granting the correctness of the computation, the library would save $284 by shutting down from 5:30 to 7, and $500 by quitting at 9 o'clock. An important point which has been overlooked, however, is that an insignificant number of students use the library during the dinner hour, and for that reason the library is in reality wasting $284. Subtracting $284 from the $500 said to be saved, the library is in truth only economizing to the extent of $216. On the basis of these figures then, the library would save $68 more by closing during the dinner hour than by lopping off the hour at night. Another argument advanced against closing during the dinner hour is that it would require "more labor than the mere turning of a key in the front door." Why must the building be closed as tightly for this hour and a half as for the night? Evidently it is not done during summer school, but if someone is needed to guard against emergencies during this period possibly the watchmar could be pressed into service Switching on the lights and seeing that assistants are on duty could be done by one of the regular employees. The Daily Kansan has supported the student side or viewpoint on several extra-curricular projects which lost. Perhaps they did not warrant determined advocacy. The library question, however, deserves a vigorous and continued stand. Here is something closely bound to the educational system and as vital as professors and class rooms. It is not merely a matter of convenience for the students, the library forms the foundation of the University study method. One of life's darkest moments is when you discover your roommate wears the same size shirts. FACING THE FACTS Last year the Christmas vacation began officially at noon on Saturday, Dec. 17, and ended Saturday, Dec. 31. According to the calendar, 14 days vacation was allowed, but counting the Friday before and the Sunday after the scheduled holiday, 16 days of freedom from the classroom were possible. This year there are to be officially and actually 13 days of vacation, since the recess begins Wednesday, Dec. 20, and ends Tuesday, Jan. 2. In comparison with last year, three days have been taken away. Easter vacation, on the other hand, is lengthened by only one day, and that day is balanced by the loss of the Washington's birthday holiday. The two extra days (one each semester) before final examinations amount to only one extra day this year because Decoration Day falls on the day before second semester examinations begin. To sum up these figures: Students this year will have two days less of vacation than they had last year. It is hoped that holidays next year will fall on more advantageous days, and that the Easter recess will be materially lengthened. A FREE PRESS UNDER THE NRA WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 11, 1933 Recently Dick Thompson, editor of the Tallassee (Alabama) Tribune, filed charges against Eugene H. Dumnegan, a mediator for the department of labor, charging that Dumnegan had entered his office and had threatened federal prosecution if Thompson continued his editorial attacks on unions. Dunnegan told the editor that his comments were in violation of the labor provisions of the NRA, and when the editor refused to give his promise to cease his criticisms, the federal agent threatened to have the district attorney commence prosecution. Thompson, nevertheless, published an article disclosing the agent's activity and asserted his reliance upon the constitutional right of free speech and free press. Assistant Secretary Battle, of the labor department, made the following statement:“Officers of the department have been advised that they have no right to tell any editor what he may or may not print, and that nothing in the NRA nor any other federal statute gives them such a right.” Regardless of attitude toward labor unions, all newspapers and the entire public should welcome this assurance that even in these times of propaganda the freedom of the press in this country will remain inviolate. The Washington Senators lose again. First Roosevelt, and now the Giants. WHEN A GUARANTY IS UNDESIRABLE The American Bankers Association, in convention in Chicago three weeks ago, passed the following resolution in regard to the deposit guaranty included in the new bank act: "It is our considered judgment that means should be found to postpone action. . We believe that if the attempt is made to hurry arbitrarily strict examinations the result will be the suspension and liquidation of some thousands of banks. . The whole project for deposit insurance should be considered. . ." Enforcement of this law will mean that good banks will be weakened through being forced to pay for the failures of bad banks, which failures they would have had no power to prevent. A similar guaranty system has been in force in Kansas for the past six years, but it has not lessened the danger of runs on Kansas banks. Thoughtless depositors will consider this just the sort of resolution that could have been expected from a group of bankers, and one which is not to be taken as an impartial recommendation. It would seem that the guaranteeing of deposits would be a protection against losses to depositors caused by mismanagement and dishonesty, and that it would eliminate the danger of runs closing sound banks. A study of the situation, however, will reveal that in this case the best interests of the bankers coincide with the best interests of the depositors.

Editor Daily Kansan: MID-WEEK VARSITY: Again a complaint from someone who didn't like to sit in the east stadium. When plans were being made for the activity ticket, Student Council leaders negotiated with the athletic office, among others, for minimum prices, on a basis of quantity sales. It was made of them that an enlarged student attendance, the general public attendance, could not be reached for 50-yard line seats. The Council chose 50-yard line in the east stadium in preference to 30-yard-line seats in the west stadium. That was the Council choice; that is the present agreement. Physical examinations will be given at Watkins Memorial hospital the afternoon of Wednesday Oct. 11 for those new students who missed the examinations during Freshman week. The examination will take about one-half hour Call the hospital for appointments. This is the last opportunity until the second semester. R. I. CANUTESON, Director.

A. cabinet will be held at room 10 of the Union building at 4:30 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 11. Y. M. C. A.: and failures have been numerous. One small Kansas bank, in a town of 2,500 population has paid out $19,000 in assessments to the guaranty fund in these six years. Kansas has just learned the futility of the guaranty system. If this plan is enforced throughout the country the harm will, of course, be much greater than it has been in Kansas. Most of the 2,700 banks now operating on a restricted basis will have to be reorganized before they can get under the guaranty. Many of the 8,000 other banks not members of the Federal Reserve system cannot now pass the examination for admission to the guaranty system. Thus, to rush into practice of this plan will mean, as the A.B.A. stated, the suspension and liquidation of many banks over the country. That would hardly be a stimulant to the expansion of credit which is so badly needed for the success of the recovery administration. Should the recovery program succeed despite this handicap, the guaranty system would still be a failure because it attempts to correct wrong after it is done and gives no consideration to the prevention of wrong. Deposit insurance cannot make an honest or competent man out of a dishonest or incompetent man.
