President Hoover Invited by France to Visit in Europe
Executive's Visit Migh Conflict With Foreign Policy of American Senate
MAX TURN 11 DOWN
Paris, Oct. 26—(UP)—Invitation of President Hoover to return the visit of Premier Pierre Laval was suggested in several political quarters today as both course for Laval to cash in on contacts was established. It was realized that only the slightest possibility could such an invitation would be accepted.
Influential opinion, however, believed
An European visit by President Hoover
would be highly beneficial and would
not conflict with the senate's foreign
policy.
A note of disappointment tinged the enthusiasm of the Premier's visit to London. In a separate interview Borah was considered responsible for the diplomatic display in which Washington enforced intangibles and Lavol would make no disarmament effort.
Laval Confident
Laval issued assured of a vote of confidence from parliament when he returned from the United States, because he maintained a cool head at London and Berlin and did not sacrifice the French thesis of disarmament
In other words Laval knew when to say "no." The opposition, especially the socialists, continues sarcastic sentiments. The right has much rolling of drums and waving a flag for nothing. The opposition contends that the Premier took a touristic trip from Paris to France, neatly to French taxpayers, instead of alleviating expenditure for armament
The agreement for co-operation between French and American bankers to accept the financial crisis was believed to have been obtained without Lava's visit.
Some quarters maintained that a banker's agreement was reached by United States and French financiers and formal approval by Laval a week ago.

Undamaged by a rebellious senate in the last legislature, Murray took "the people" his special legislative pro-terrorism bill was defied by the last legislature.
Oklahoma City, Oct. 25—(UP)-Gov William H. (Alfalfa Bill) Murray, the commerger, today inaugurated his "firebell" ringing" campaign.

Murray will submit two constitutional amendments and four legislative measures. The amendments restrict corporate ownership of property, other than for business purposes, to 10 years from the date of his taxation from 43½ mills to 30 mills.

Professor in Architecture Plans to Work on Commercial Test Next

Outward Bound' Chosen for Dramatic Production
ability to Cast for 'He Who Gets Slapped' Causes Change
After numerous attempts at easting "He Who Guises Slapped," the play has been temporarily abandoned by the Kansas Players in favor of "Outward Appeal" as a tribute to the monument, of the department of speech and dramatic art at the University.
"While our acting material is better this year than the average, most of it is inexperienced and untrained." Professor Crafton said, "and it would be able to present to He Who Gave Slapped in the way it should be presented."
Professor Crafton stated that the emailed call for Italian and French mobility would have been less effective for farmers and the Kansas Players felt that the actors are not qualified for it.
"Our audiences ask why we do not present certain plays," asserted Peter Shaw. "We should realize how we can be handicapped in the type of play that can be presented adequately."
The Kansas players, remarked Professor Crafton, can play a good performance in a modern serious play that is not too subtle or difficult, and in a modern realistic drama or farre that may be more illuminating. These limits it is an unearnest venture.
"Outward Bound" is one of the most successful plays of the last decade in England and other European countries as well as America.

Missouri Students Hit by Business Depression
Loan Committee Estimates 600 Will Be Helped During Year
Columbia, Mo., Oct. 26-(UP) -The business depression is having its effect even in collegiate circles, a survey of the University of Missouri reveals.
Most indicative of slimmer pocket-books among coeds and men students alike is the announcement by the student loan fund committee that already owned them have been forced to borrow from the university in order to remain in school.
Loans for the purchase of textbooks, registration fees and board and room expenses. Students in the college students before the scholastic year is closed, the committee estimates. With a month of the school year over, $3,000 may be allotted to students who have been allotted student borrowers.
The co-eds, as represented by the otto Gamma armor ones, wear a leather vest with the decision limit soda fountain orders while with accords to "nickel codes." Another of their recommendations is a recommendation that women students wear cotton hose and underclothes.
The loan fund committee has announced that "if we are to continue lending money we must necessarily seek out students who are deserving an extension to administer the policy of the committee will be to assist the extreme cases."
The university athletic department has recognized the paucity of students at UCLA, and so they will send which students may buy season tickets for football games on an "installment basis." The plan said the plan was adopted because many students found it impossible to afford them.

Here
London, — (UP) — The record for cumbersome loot is claimed for unknown thieves who stole eight ancient fireplaces from a house in the west-front building.
The fireplaces are believed to be the work of Adams and Grindling Gibbons and although their actual value is not as high as the intricate value is very much greater.
Thieves Take Fireplace From London Residence
The house had been unoccupied for over a year. There was no caretaker, but it was visited at frequent intervals, and when the theft occurred, the theft was discovered, although there was nothing to show how the fireplaces were intact, and the way in which the theft was executed indicated that it was the work of people who knew what was going on.
The police theory is that the robbery occurred in August when perhaps half a dozen people were on vacation. It is believed that the fireplaques were taken out stuily as part of the investigation.
