German Well-Being Is Hitler's Test Declares Hal Lary
Forum Speaker Points Out That Maziism Is Abnormal Social Condition
"Hitlerism, or Nazism, is an abnormal condition both socially and politically," declared Hal Lary, who has been a student in the University of Geneva for the past three years, in speaking before the Noon Luncheon Forum in the cafeteria today. "Hitler's real test will be to effect the economic well being of the German people," Mr. Lary continued.
"This movement, which is primarily a negative one, made its first tremendous step forward in 1832." Mr. Larry said," taking control of the Garman political situation. Since that time, a complete transition has been made in the national government. The opposing political parties have been crushed, the state has been changed from a Federal to a Unified government, and the church has been completely Germanized.
"However the social change desired by the majority of Germans has yet to be effected. The middle class Germans, who were financially ruined by the abnormal years of inflation, are looking to Hitler for aid.
Appeal Is to Lower Classes
"When Hugenburg and Von Papen formed a triumvirate with Hitler, hoping to furnish the brains, they were taken away and seen by the events of the past year.
Although the Nazi movement is backed financially by the industrialist, the rank and file of the followers is composed of the unemployed middle class. Mr. Lary pointed out that it is to this group that the Nazi movement offers the greatest appeal and it is for them that the movement must produce results.
Situation Uncertain
Other forces are also adding to the stress of the German situation. There are rumors that large munitions works have made contributions to the Nazi campaign funds because of its military aspect. In addition there has been talk of the French and Polish armies intervening. Germany's relationship with Austria is also uncertain. Hitler is bringing a great amount of pressure to bear and at any time war might easily break out, according to the speaker.
In closing Mr. Lary said "I dislike Hiltierism, and I think that there are too many of us."
Because of the limited amount of time, the forum discussion was postponed until the meeting in the Central Administration auditorium, where Mr. Lary will speak on "Dare We Disarm," at 8:30 this evening.
U. S. MUST UNDERSTAND JAPAN.
SAYS STUDENT FROM HAWAII
"There is one sure way to dispense with the fear of war between the United States and Japan," said Shirowo Matsumoto, a student from Hawaii, in talking to the Westminster Forum Hall night, "and that to mix the Japanese and American together so that they will like each other."
A spirit of peace should be established across the Pacific, and this could be done by each country's departing from the idea that it is the most powerful one in the world. Hawaii is one of the countries most interested in this project. But that island that the shells would fall in case of a war, observed Matsumoto.

Councils to Urge Prompt Payment of Activity Fees
Petitions for Exemptions Being Heard; Student Sentiment Opposed Exceptions
"The fee at the University is one of he lowest in the state" said Lila Lawon, c34, president of the W.S.G.A., to "and affords participation in practically every activity in which the students have interest."
Building of sentiment for prompt payment of activity fees will be considered by the Women's Self Governing association at its meeting tonight, and by the Men's Student Council at its next session.
Kurt Riesen, former vice-president of the Men's Student Council, pointed out that the project was initiated last year by the student councils after ex-children of the subject, not only in Kansas schools but in institutions in other states.
"The student activity fees was originated in an endeavor to lower the cost of activities to individual students and to insure their continuance," said Miss Lawson. "The whole plan was worked out by student groups, and includes worthy campus activities that ought to have the support of all students."
"School pride ought to compel students to pay the fee promptly and cheerfully," aid Reisen. "The University offers a program of attractions of superior character, and a program of this scale cannot be obtained without general acceptance of the activity fee plan."
Student Majority Large
He recalled that various propositions were submitted to student vote, and the request for an activity fee went to the Regents only after a substantial majority of the students had voted, and the institution had been strongly for the proposition.
"The sentiment of the students was strongly in favor of the activity plan," the Chancellor said. "In fact, the student request provided for absolutely everything the教导urs thought it better to leave that matter to the head of the institution."
In connection with the activity fee, Chancellor Lindley said today that his office to petitions for exemptions are addressed, will investigate carefully through a faculty-student committee but will endeavor to follow the wishes of the council in making the fee generally applicable.
"The number of petitions for exemption, is somewhat larger than we had hoped for, but this is like any other new thing it takes time for the students to become accustomed to it. The same situation developed when a general student health fee was proposed. Everyone was sure he would not be come ill, but now the fee is paid without question, and some $5 per cent of the students make at least a small use of the University's health service."
No Exemptions at Manhattan
In a letter to Harold Dent, last year’s president of the Men's Student Council, he arrell of Kansas State College wrote:
"The experience of endearing for 15 or 16 semesters to determine which applications for exemption should be granted and which denied has convinced me that there should be no exemptions; that all undergraduate students should be required to pay the college fee as is true in many colleges and as is unfair to the student health fee and of certain other fees."
Fees in other Kansas schools include $7.50 each semester at Ottawa University; $6 a semester at the University of Wichita; $5 each semester and $3 for summer session at Hays, and $3.50 a semester or summer session at Pittsburg.
President Butcher of Emporia Teachers College wrote that the fee there is $6 each semester, and $2.50 for the summer session.
"The only student who has been excused from the fee in several years," writes President Butcher, "is a blind boy whose expenses are being borne by a group of men outside the school."
