APRIL 21. 1932 MAKE THEM WELCOME Athletes from the Middle West will be in Lawrence as guests of the University Friday and Saturday. These athletes come from the largest cities and the smallest towns. Many of them will see the University and talk with Jay-hawkers for the first time. Our political tray will be over and most of the debris, with the exception of a few handbills lodged in various crannies on the campus, will be cleaned up. There are no important examinations to consider. Every student has plenty of time to be host should occasion offer. The University serves the students. Let the students serve the University by making the visitors welcome. TRUCK REGULATION Wasn't it too bad that neither of the political parties thought of publishing their numerous bulletins on absorbent paper so that they could be used later to relieve the paper towel famine in University wash rooms? In recommending that bus and truck lines engaging in interstate commerce be placed under federal control, the interstate commerce commission has moved toward righting an obvious injustice in our national business hook-up. Competition from commercial motor lines has figured considerably in the present plight of the railroads. It has not been ordinary competition which would point the way toward a more economical means of transportation, however. Practically the truck lines have been operating under a heavy subsidy. Railroads are under the vigilant supervision of the interstate commerce commission. Their rates are prescribed. Every move must be approved. Many of their working hours are fixed by law. Truck lines have encountered virtually no interference from the state. Trucks and buses operate on the public highways, paid for and maintained by the people. They escape the heavy taxes which are helping to strangle the railroads and add to the hazards and congestion of roads already crowded with legitimate traffic. The period of usefulness of concrete highways is shortened materially by the often monsterous commercial vehicles which travel over them. The interstate commerce commission has succeeded admirably in eliminating the old-time abuses of the railroads. Fairness, economy and safety now demand that the commission likewise take over the supervision of the truck and bus lines. WORK AND SCHOOL There are many who think that the college student who works his way through school is the most successful. It is true that many of those who worked their way through college have succeeded; but of those who win their education in this way many fall by the wayside. Many a high school graduate thinks that if he can only go to college and make his way at the same time, he will be an immediate success when he has finished. Nothing is farther from the truth. Those who go to school am work because it is necessary arg to be congratulated, but those who do not have to do so should be discouraged from doing so. College life can mean much more to the student who has time to do the things that his classmates are doing. He has more time to study and to take part in social affairs, all of which go to make his college education more broad. Working one's way through school is "not all that it's cracked up to be," as anyone who has done so will tell you. Add comment on the spurge of handbills on the campus: "And then they cry about spending money for textbooks." CAME THE RAINBOW At last the deluge of mud has ended. Like Noah, who stood upon the poop deck of his sea-goong menagerie, after the downfall had ceased, we now look upon the rainbow. Whether there is a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow, as promised by the different political parties, is a different matter. By tomorrow morning all the good and bad news will be known. The general run of students are not interested in which party elects the most candidates, they are interested in performance by the men chosen for office. After the deluge there is a rainbow, as to the pot of gold, that is another matter A STATE INCOME TAX Undaunted by one defeat at the polls, Governor Wooding is taking advantage of every opportunity to carry on his fight for a state income tax amendment, a measure which would divide more equally the burden of taxation now concentrated on two principal classes by an antitaped tax system. When our present tax laws were framed, Kansas was almost entirely an agricultural state. The only visible wealth was real estate. It was then the only basis for taxation. Since that time the character of the state has changed considerably. Industries have assumed an important place in our economic life. Real estate now represents only about one-third of the wealth of Kansas, but it continues to pay almost all of the state taxes. It is obvious that the present system is unfair and that a change is badly needed. But securing relief from the placing of a governmental penalty on the home owner and farmer is a much more difficult matter. Education in the significance and social value of the income tax is necessary. For it is doubtful if most of the electorate which defeated the amendment in 1930 understood the measure. To many, it was simply another tax, and therefore a thing to be avoided at all costs. G. C. Shand, professors of electrical engineering, has introduced a new style of collar to electrical students. The new collar texture is that of cotton handcloth. 15 On the Hill Years Ago "Students should know that ducking as well as padding is prohibited," said Professor Patterson today. The regulation adopted by the Senate specifies: Ducking is not permitted and other form of violence used to entrain student regulations is forbidden." The inspiration for the new fashion came to Professor Shad because he had a boll on the back of his neck. The University men who attended the convention of the American Chemical society have returned with a plan to all women here to surrender their jewelry and to discourage the platinum jewelry and to discourage the decoration. Ten men have invaded the department of home economics to receive instruction in the course in camp cookery.
