Jenkins Predicts That War Debts Will Not Be Paid
Change of So Much Money
Can Never Be Made,
Says Speaker at
Convocation
UPHOLDS MORATORIUM
Prediction that World war debts to the United States never would be paid was made in the Armistice day address at Convocation, by D. Burry Jensen, professor of history at Kansas City, Mo. Doctor Junkin declared his belief that two steps should be taken by the United States this winter to promote economic and military peace. These steps, he said, were based on the principles of peace, and sharp curtailment of armaments.
"Our nation has learned, much against its will, the inexpedience and the impossibility of collecting those world debts and repatriation," said Doe Nathalie, a spokesman for the financial leaders of our nation, declared the impossibility of collecting any of those debts during the current year, to save Germany from bankruptcy and possible revolution. "We are not in compliance, it is true for this year is true forever."
"We shall never collect those wean debts, because the transfer of so much money can never be made. The loss to the taxpayers of this country disappars entirely when you consider the loss to them in the current depression.
"I increased trade that would follow the complete cancellation of those obstacles to trade," he said. "The very small percentage of income tax added to pay off our own Liberty."
Should Co-operate
"The effort of England to pay its war debt in gold has resulted in a shift of gold in our treasury which has been scrapped and will be scattered to promote credits and trade. You cannot trade without counters; and gold pieces are the counters of most countries."
"The present problem, then, is to speed up exchanges—in short, to cooperate.
Extreme Patriotism a Vice
"To live and let live, to help other to live, to produce the greatest property in all quarters of the world," he wrote. "To dream, idealistic economics of the golden rule, that seems the only way out of our economic dilemma and experts are preaching it. To cope up on European warming, to ease up on Germany. We were迫于为欧 do we be done by, to e-govern; to put into practice the Golden Rule. Could anyone else have had a chance to grow as economist and sociologist of two thousand years ago know what he was talking about and spoke words big enough to apply to the world's economic dill."
"Partitionism, when grown to such a extreme that it blinds itself to a native land, becomes a vice and not a virtue. We cannot help but love our native lands, because we have native land, the house, the farm, the town, where we were born, the country that speaks our language."
"To defend it is natural, instinctive but to see in it no defects, and to bind our eyes completely with the manifold unfalterable foe and even violence with other nations.
"Nothing less than a world view can make an intelligent patriot. Not until America begins to think in world terms that the nation will accept its unique patronum—prosperity and peace."
No.53
"War costs heavily, whether it be military or commercial. It results in wounds, starvation, rickety children unemployed fathers and mothers."
Chancellor Memilns Death of Pierce
Chancellor E. H. Lindley spake a few sentences about the death of his killed last night in an automobile accident, and likened the feeling of those who knew him to that experienced by the millions during the World War, who in their years were murdered or their loved ones for four years."
The invocation was delivered by Pro. J. W. Twente of the School of Education, and by Mr. Noel 14 of the American Legion, after which "The Star Spangled Banner" was sung by the School of Fine Arts, and accompanied by the University Arts, and accompanied by the Univer-

Armistice Reveals Nations Weighted With War Debts
World Supporting Larges
Armed Forces Known
13 Years After Great War
DEBTS TOTAL BILLIONS
Washington, Nov. 11—(UP) A decade and three years after the close of the "war to end wars" finds the word supporting the largest military and naval establishments of history and down with billions of dollars in debts.
Just 13 years ago today the gun ended their four-years-lunge thunder on the western front. Marshall Perdina, 29, was shot and killed many met in a side-tracked railroad car and signed an armament. Repoins was universal. Men crawled out of muddy trenches until they could observe by artificial smoke. A new era seemed at hand.
Then came the quarrelting and bargaining at Versailles. Statesmen insisted on making the map of Europe -romale it so that now the world's foreign office has made itself an island in the gurna gurna will thunder again over deep racial animosity inherent in the present European Polish corridor through Germany and clash of Germans and Poles in Up-
United States Not Alone
The United States has not been able in the ensuing army and navy. Virtually all of those that were in Europe—save those that were defended—increased its soldiers and armament above the pre-war level. President Hoover estimates that the world is now at 40,000,000 each year for armed defense.
Thirteen years after the war the nations are planning for a General Disarmament conference to meet at Geneva and to put figures into the spaces left in a draft treaty of disarmment, up after six years of laborious and vexing work. There are grower indictments against farmers of Geneva unless there are drastic change meantime in the world's political structure. Already State Department representatives are beginning to hymn to the "limitation" rather than "reduction."
Hope of Disarmament
The treasures of the worm **worm** pouring out millions of dollars each month to pay for a war that ended it 10 years ago. The United States approximately $40,000,000,000, according to treasury figure officers. On veterans' relief $1,000,000,000 per year is being spent and this charge will continue for many
Nearly a half million maintained and deceased veterans have been treated at government hospitals since the end of the war. Thousands still are in these institutions.
There were great hopes for universal disarmament in those days when the number of enemy bases hoped be realized? The answer is found in the statistical records of the U.S. military.
Back in the quiet pre-war days in the fiscal year 1910-11, for instance, a ship of 74368 men. Its shoes were guarded by 148 ships of war. Sope 59,567 sailors and marines manned these ships and protected American interest abroad.
London, Nov. 11—(UP) -British ships on the seas and ships carrying the troops of the United Kingdom observe the two minutes' silence kept throughout the United Kingdom and most parts of the British Empire in commemoration of the 13th anniversary of the war.
BRITISH OBSERVE ARMISTICE
Two Minute Silent Memorial Service at Centograph
The beginning of the two minutes' silence was marked in the Central Metropolitan area by the b fireing of a cannon on the Horse Guard Parade simultaneously with the first stroke of the rifle and the second of 11 a.m. Everywhere men with barred heads stood quiet as the big clock boomed out its mellow strokes.

Carson, Mr. Gloeine, 18, president of the Wyant-state county alumni association, was tourmaster, Fred Elwisher, who with Mrs. Carson, led in the smiling of K. U. Sues.
The most successful and enthusiastic meeting of University of Kansas alumni which has been held anywhere for more than six years was held last night in the Kansas City, Kan., in the opinion of Fred Elliott, alumni secretary. The meeting which was held under the sponsorship of the Wyndotte County Alumni association was in the library, and a dance about 100 persons were present.
Mr. Carlson, 79, an old K man, introduced Coach Harges, who said, "The football team is getting better every game, but we're running out of games." He was one of the coaches who commanded the response to the loan fund drive, both on the part of the faculty and reminded of the dangers of reducing the University appropriation too much. After the ban ended, City orchestra played for the舞会.
'Traditions Committee'
Flans Annual Hobo Day
Short Rally Will Probably Be Heid at Noon on Campus
"Hobe" day at the University of Kansan is a gala occasion; a day on which students are invited to display where needy distribution is unknown. Nearly all of the students participate whole-heartedly in the observance of the Day of Remembrance, the Hill that day would put to shame the most-women-bedeled and dissolute of the members of that great fraternity-The Hobe Society.
The "traditions committee" of the Men's Student Council met Tuesday afternoon to discuss the plans for the annual observance of "bolo" day on this campus according to Russell Strobel, president of the Men's Student council.
No actual plans have yet been made with regard to this annual event which is a traditional and the most concerning to go ahead with its work along that line on the grounds that rumors of it will not materialize into action.
This year at Northwestern University, a prize is being awarded to the best student in this university for the longest and most luxurious board for homecoming. This hirsute competition begins some weeks ago and could be extended by the university with much success this year.
It has been the rule in the past that a short, snappy rally is held at noon or early afternoon, with members of the team, the coaches, and prominent alumni give a few choice and pointed remarks appropriate to the occasion. At this year this effort of the “traditional committees” are carried out and the plans of the homecoming committee.
One of the unfortunate features of "boba" day according to the academic minds of some of the professors is the failure of students to enter the classrooms to the extent that pedagogical discourse is practically discontinued. Remarks are abundant among some of the undergraduates to the effect that the absence of a tendency to dampen the arder of the celebration while another undergraduate element is of the opinion that the members of the faculty enjoy the experience of the day as much as their students.
This is the second of a series of talks to be sponsored by the Cosmopolitan club this winter. The meeting will be held on April 27th at Chart Chap讲座 in the Auditorium.
Alfred de Chapeaurougn, exchange scholar from Germany, will speak on the "Germany Movement" at a rupper meeting of the Comporthem coel to be held at 6.00 tomorrow evening in private dining room of the cafeteria.

Paris, Nov. 11—(UP) The thirteenth anniversary of the Armistice was celebrated here and throughout France this year, which are more impressive each year.

Long before the ceremonies began, scores of French veteran officers and soldiers marched to the historic Invitational Stadium to observe the standards to the Champs Elysées, where they were escorted by a baited cannon. The goal of loyalty to the Arch of Triumph.
Marches with Troops
General Gourdau, military governor of Paris, marched with his picked troops up the famous avenue, while officers gathered on the sides kept the crowds in place.
Circling around the arch, the troops were stationed outside the great cathedral. Timing his arrival carefully, President Doumer arrived with members of the Cabinet but a few minutes before he had been tourned and the white-haired President, who himself had four sons in the war, bowed his head in a mute
Thousands Bareheaded
Thousands down the great avenue stood at attention, and behind rigid headboards were hundreds inclined in the minute of silence.
