WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 24, 1932 THE DOLLAR SIGN ON STATESMANSHIP Since the political tumult caused by the Newberry case the question of how much money a candidate for office should spend during his campaign has gone without answer. Many states have tried legislation to limit the amount a candidate may spend for a campaign. In such cases the candidate has always found a loophole in the law through which he could slip into the field of unlimited campaign expense. Apparently one solution will work during elections of 1932. At least, it has worked with a Missouriian who withdrew his hat from the ring of candidates for lieutenant governor because he could not afford the expense of the campaign. Whether he is an able statesman who would make a good public servant is not the question. His candidacy was reduced to dollars and cents. As long as a small fortune is a basic requirement for winning public office, we are likely to have many money makers but few statesman. GRAFTERS There are some persons enrolled in this institution who are nothing more than grafters. They have been sent here by weak-minded parents who have arranged for the students to write checks upon the home account to the extent of their needs. This is a bad system. In the first place it does not make the offspring learn to budget his expenses as it would if he were upon a definite allowance; in the second place, it puts him in a situation that easily leads to temptation. It is so easy to write a check, mark it "books," make a twenty-five cent purchase, and cash it at a Hill or downtown book or supply store. One such person made a practice of that at one store until the proprietor marked two of the checks "ten cents note-paper, balance cash" before sending them to the bank. It has been said that a great many good farmers have been spoiled by coming to the University. That is something to think about. It might also more truthfully be said that a considerable number of plain grafters are given opportunity to practice and do practice their art here at the University. IS THE HILL TOO HIGH? The students at K U. are neither better nor worse than those at Columbia or California. For that reason a succession of internationally known speakers on problems vitally involving this world torn with war, rumbling from the cry of hungry horses, struggling in the throes of depression, draws only a few students to hear them. 'press, and utilized for a wise-crack taking less space and less sincere thought than that devoted to the story of a prize pig For that reason a plea for culture is a woman leader of the campus is picked up by the Kansas Why wonder when *exasperated instructors occasionally grow impatient while trying to enolie and squeeze four-story educations into our one-story minds? We are not interested in war until the enemy sets a machine gun in front of our lodging. We are not bothered with hunger as long as the check from home arrives on time and cafes remain open. Culture? One can get a degree without it. Smug, self-satisfied, believing in jingoism and in our instructors when they say "ten years from now you will be the leaders," we spend four years averting one opportunity after another to learn, content to return home and take up life where we left it four years ago. Is the Hill so high that it places us too far above the rest of this small world? THE DEATH OF THE BLUES Jazz, the bad boy of the musical family, is starting to brush his hair, tidy up his face and step out into the better places. He is beginning to discard the swaddling clothes in which he came roaring in from the jungle. He is casting long eyes toward a tuxedo and a life of responsibility. His new habits are evident in the tactics of the most popular dance bands of today. They can be seen in the melodious, subdued waltzes of Wayne King, in the sweeping rhythm and characteristic instrumental effects of the Royal Canadians, and in the symphonic-like endeavors of Whiteman and Rubinoff. He is abandoning his noisy play with crashing drums and blaring trumpets. In their places, he is fondling soft woodwinds, muted brasses and strings. Equally noticeable has been the character of the great song hits of the past year. "Blues" are completely out of style. The "low down" numbers appear on programs as novelties instead of characteristic attractions. Theme songs of almost all the leading bands are of the soft, dreamy variety, while some dance organizations have entered the semi-classical field, notably in the waltzes, with more or less success. Our Bad Boy is moving out of Tin Pan Alley, and is fighting his way northward toward Park Avenue. Attractions of his old playground sometimes call him back, but the increasing approval which the public greets his changed habits will insure his progress. Out of The Mail Martin-Schoubeng Berlin-Mittel-Luhrs-38 Bje Peke February 4th, 1932 February 5th, 1932 What do I miss here? I miss com- shipdish, freedom. Imagine two K. U. boys taking off their hats, clicking their heels together and bowing as they are introduced to each other! No words exchanged. That's the way it'd done I recently received a copy of the good old awdisee sheets and some of the things I read in your paper reminded me of what I am missing hack thur sunday. I was studying at the University of Berlin, but you can give me K. U, any day. Imagine our University with a high fence around it and cops at every door. One is allowed to enter only with a permit. Soldiers called in to beat the students down with "Black Jacks!" That's the University of Berlin. The largest in central Europe with an enrollment of fifteen thousand, this school consists of 146 faculties and departments; it is very much smaller than our "ad" building. There absolutely no Campus and no school. Life in connection with the university. There are fruits to be sure, but they are of no social nature and cannot to throw beer drinking drinks. Lawrence, Dear Editor: Nearly every student belongs to one of the many Political Parties of Germany, including: Communist Party, Social Democrats, Christian Party (Back of the government in power).
