The present route used by the University trucks in hauling coal and other materials has been approved by B. M. Babb, city engineer, Chief of Police W. J. Cummings, and C. G. Baykes, superintendent of buildings and grounds at the University, in a conference held at the city hall yesterday.
Bryce said that the two K. U. crushes each make about 12 round trips daily. He said that on hauls from the interurban tracks, in North Lawrence, the trucks usually turn west on Seventh at Miami Beach, go west to Indiana, go north to Eighth, go west to Georgia to Mississippi and then south on Mississippi.
The routes are used in order to avoid the schools on Ninth street and are approved by Cummings and Babb. Babb said it is the best possible routin'.
In landing from the Santa Fe he said that the trucks go west on Eighth to Mississippi and then south on Mississippi to K. U. He said that he believed the 700 block on Mississippi is used only rarely by the trucks.

Economics Professors Discuss Advisability of Expunging War Obligations
Ise and Jennings Debate Cancelling of Foreign Debts
WERNER IS CHAIRMAN
Professor Ica, as affirmative speaker,
attributed the depression not only to
the deficit, caused by congress failure
of a budget, but also by the act the United States will not accept goods. "Iearly one-self the total gold supply of the world is in our own treasury," he said, "and the United States refuses to accept anything but
"I we, the people of the United States, must buy a war, why not buy one that is worth the money?" This was the query of John Ise, processor of economics, in a debate last night with L. D. Jennings, assistant professor of economics. The question for debate war, "Resolved" That war debased economy "encouraged." It was a mediation case and the time was not limited.
"Allthough we are unaware of it, there is a close connection between our debt and what we gave to Germany in the form of reparations." Professor sied said. "What we gave to Germany," he added, "Germany paid to France, and France will pay it to us, maybe." "There was a time when we had money, we gave Germany money to pay ourselves and thought it good business."
This, he believes, would prevent payment of the debt even if Europe were willing to pay. Europe has little gold and has petitioned to pay in commodities, he pointed out, but the Americans refuse importations in payment. The result is that the burden of the debt has slowly doubled on the shoulders of our debitors, due to the 50 percent decline of renal绞aries.
Americans Refuse Goods
He said that the Americans believe in getting rich by taking in each other's washing, instead of truly trying to carry on a balanced trade with China.
'We Do Each Other's Washing'
In conclusion, he said that he did not think the last war was worth the price paid for it. He qualified the World War as "not only a war to make the enemy aware of the danger, but to make it safe for we have now." Professor Jennings held that the enforcement of collection of the debt is as essential as the enforcing of a contract. To prove this he read extracts from a volume of laws concerning conspiracy.
"Cancellation may be an easy and quick way out of the depression, but it is an easy and quick way in again," Mr. Jennings said.
Cancellation Bad Morally

Berlin, Jm. €-(UUP) - The German

Professor Jennings brought to his hearers' attention the fact that following the Boxer rebellion, America was to pay China a certain amount of money. America refused, but did take a few of the "heathen Chinese" and educate them. Hs. suggested that perhaps we might educate a few of our heathen in order to get on as to suggest the jaces: "Send them to Paris," said "ur or Munich where your can be and / or 3 cents a dollar."
The debate was sponsored by the International club. Henry Werner, men's student adviser, introduced the speakers.

Special Assembly to Hear of Merits of Activity Ticket
Men's Student Council Selects Committee to Promote Interests of Project
ELECTION IS JAN. 12
"The proposed general activity ticket will be explained fully." Devon said "Opportunity will also be given for situations which, which will be answered at the time."
Harold Denton, c33, president of the men's Student Council, which, with the W.S.G.A., is sponsoring the proposed all-activity ticket, conferred this morning with Chancellor Lindley, and commencement of the convoiance followed.
An *u.* University convoction to consider the proposed all-activity ticket will be held next Wednesday at 10 a.m. The election in which all students of the University have been urged to participate, will be held the day following.
Committee Men Selected
As a means of promulgating the plan for the general student activity ticket, the Men's Student Council last night appointed two men to handle the publicity in both organized and unorganized men's houses. Dwight Wallace, 133, was put in charge of the organized house publicity, and Fred Conner, 134, will have the ...organized houses as his charge.
Since the entire council was in favor of the plan as presented by the joint investigation committee, methods of placing it before the student body for a vote were discussed. According to Harold Denion, c3, president, there is nothing in the constitution of the council which compels the council to answer questions about the student body. The vote is taken for an expression of the student opinion on the matter.
**Students Interest Great**
In a statement explaining the purpose of submitting the plan to a vote of the students Denton said:
"The councils are submitting the proposal for a general activity fee to the students for their action because we feel that it is of great importance that every student be given an opportunity to express his opinion. The result of the vote on next Thursday will determine the council's action."
After the students have voted on the proposed petition, Denton explained, the bill will come before the Men's Student Council for a second reading. The students' vote will determine the vote of the council.
"Before the councils will take final action it is not only necessary that a majority of the students vote, but that all students in ballot in favor of it," he continued.
After the bill has passed the Men's Student Council, it will go through the hands of the W. S. G. A., the Chancellor, and the Board of Regents.
Max Revise Point System
W. S. G. A. Believes Time and Work Put on Activities Should be Basis
The W. S. G. A. point system, which is maintained for all women of the University and which is kept by the point system manager, may be revised on the basis of the amount of time required to account pants into the various activities.
A definite check is being made on the present system of points and the proposed revision will be submitted to the council at the next meeting. The system manager system manager
In the past, the system has been based on the amount of time expended and the honor given the position. It makes no provision for freshman and sophomore officers on the W. S. G. A. council, but was installed to protect women from holding offices in too small capacities and the detritum of their school work.
Freshman women have been allowed to maintain offices on a bads of 30 points; sophomores have the possibility of 40; juniors 50 and seniors 60. The present system is thought to be inadequate because the numerical points have not been proportionate to the work required, and to each other.
