FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 20, 1931 EASY MONEY Since the recent crash in the stock market there has been a revival of fortune hunting in fields that are more elementary and less risky. The attention of newspaper readers has been caught especially by the activities of members of the House of David. Believing that their recently deceased master, King Ben, cuched more than a million dollars in gold, currency, and diamonds, his followers have guarded the premises of his mansion carefully, and moaning, "I avowed little time to put quiet in all sorts." Thus far the earth has yielded nothing unless it be a loss of dignity for the bearded followers who are photographed so often by newsreal men. Now, in Omaha, the populace explores the earth assidiously in the territory near Robber's Cave. The rumor got out that Jesse James, one of this section's most historic men, once hid $100,000 in root there. And although the weather is a trifle bleak for people to be cultivating the ground, many Omaha citizens have found their enthusiasm and hope for burial billion overcoming the desire for the languid warmth of their fireplaces. OPERA SEASON The Bishop of Cork has announced that owing to the prevalence of influenza in his diocese there will be a dispensation of Lenten fasting. He must think hospital fare is pretty good. Just now we are appreciating more than ever our proximity to a large city, for the German opera company has arrived in the nearby metropolis and is offering three whole performances—Tristan and Isolde, The Flying Dutchman, and Don Juan. As for our confirmed opera goers, they are making haste to renew acquaintance with the company, which includes both German and American singers, and is especially chosen and trained for the Wagener type of opera. If we are to believe the reports of those who heard the productions last year they are thrilling enough to repay even the most jaded for their evening's expenditure. For those who have never seen opera before, the occasion offers an opportunity to become familiar with a hybrid form of art possessing, for its enthusiasts, all the attractions of drama, singing, and orchestral music. Why stay at home when there is a Beyreuth festival right at your door? "Period of Prayer in Turkey"-newpaper headline. Surely they're not having quizzes this early in the semester? EXPLOITED UNIVERSITY LIFE This epoch is a communicative one. No rumor is safe; no secret is beyond the ken of the public. General Sneedley Butler spoke confidentially to a group of respectable gentlemen in Philadelphia, and not only had to apologize to the United States government for his indiscretion, but necessarily viewed the polite bid excited overtures the government made to pliate Mussolini, whom Butler had considered as a "hit and run" driver. Colleges have about the same reserve. Exploratory gentlemen appear, observe campus mores and foliways, clock deprecingly, examine buildings, okay they would hears about the unfathomable behavior in higher education. The following bits, gleaned from recent news, are offered: 1. Collegians are usually complacent. 2. Mexican authorities forbid undergraduates to curry canes, dress fopiously, grow sideburns. 4. Undergraduate morals are deplorble. 3. Students on allowances often head for the doorway of hell because they have too much leisure time. 5. Undergraduate morals are better than they were 30 years ago. 6. All football teams are subsidized 7. Only Kansas football teams are subsidized 8 Pennsylvania is inaugurating a new system whereby varsity sports will be subsidiary to intramursals. 9. Pennsylvania's system is not new Western colleges have had that theory once the Gold Rush. 10. College women are ignorant. 11. College men are illiterate. 13. The professional ranks are of inordinately low mental gear; didn't George Bernard Shaw once say, "The men who can do, those who can't teach?" 13. "Aidia Bill" Murrey has the University of Oklahoma in anguish fearing his next move. 14. The University of Oklahoma has Governor Murray worried, for fear the students will see that he goes the way the governor governs, and is impeached. 15. Some colleges drink more that others. 18. Some colleyes, like the Kansas Aggies, admit they drink less than others. 17. Colleges are even worse than the news points them. 18. Colleges are not as bad as the press lets on; they couldn't be. Love. have hain been downing another "blue" day when students go marching with a heavy tread to the office of the registrar to receive last semester's pay check. Let these grades all remind us we could make our live sublimine and departing leave behind us A's upon those books of "time". According to Nina Ramos-kievtevne, the youngest pilot in the red army air force says that girls on the average are much better airplane pilots than men. No doubt the women here at the University would rank above the men if you didn't consider airplanes. "Aywawn," Nebraksa humor publication, is being printed again under the supervision of Sigma Delta Chi. Now she's clean magazine like the Sour Owl. Husband's Popularity is a Worry for Frau Einstein—Headline. She's lucky that all he's about that worries her Campus Opinion The recent article in the Dove in position to the R. O. T. C, which aroused several responses defending propensity raises the question as to the differences in thought of pacifists who desire peace and militants who also desire violence. sergeant Kollender voices the general attitude of the military department, and perhaps that of the country at large, when he says that soldiers are the true pacifists and that preparedness战 is the best insurance against war. THE VALUE OF PREPAREDNESS Editor Daily Kansas: ... The persons who rely upon an adequate defense should logically have at least a cynical or pessimistic view of human nature as being innate and unalterable deprived and belligerent. This is because fear has little importance as a contributing factor to the outbreak of war. The lack of self-resistance in humanity is built to fight through its natural greed, selfishness, pugnacity, and inability to settle conflict by legislation. There is, of course, little reasoning with a cynic, such as a believer in preparedness must logically be. To quote him to about chips on shoulders starters back, "In this case fear is most important in developing a psychosis of pugnancy or to try to show that conflict, admittedly and necessarily irradiable, may be raised to the level of something a substitute for physical struggle, is not convincing. He is bound to believe ENGINEERING COUNCIL Pettitions will be considered to fill the vacancy of senior representative on the Engineering Council. Pettitions must be in hands of counsel by Feb. 25. A meeting will be held in the rest room of central Administration building on Wednesday, Feb. 25, at 8:10 p.m. immediately following the Union dance. Initiation will be held for three new members. A program by the members will follow. There will be refreshments. WILLIAM VANDEL, President that pacifism is idealistic and wholly impracticable. OFFICIAL UNIVERSITY BULLETIN Vol. XXVIII Friday, Feb. 29, 1921 No. 112 5. Greeks are able to pay taxes. We believe many students at K. U. would consider Mr. Freeman's estimate of $800 annually at K. U. to be wealth. Preparedness has been tried since the beginning of man, and wars have grown increasingly more horrible. The pacifists, such as Einstein, who believe that it takes two to make a scrap and that there are no victims, said the war would become conscientious objectors, war would become almost impossible, at least offer a new and optimistic of human nature that has not yet been attempted in actual practice. MAC DOWELL CLUB: 4. A number of both non-Greeks and are supported by their parents. If taxation is carried double taxation is valid, and if taxation is to be equitable, then must fund a percentage of the taxes which parents of non-Greeks have paid in taxes. 3. Lawrence profits economically from the trade of the both Greeks and the larger number of non-Greeks. The reason why the success is to prevail, the former should be.

CALL (804) 657-9900. FORM T. M. COBEN. SECRETARY Editor Daily Kansan: PI LAMBDA THETA: 1. Any group of citizens served and protected by the agencies of their government should be taxed equitably by that government. RHADAMANTHI: 2. Friarlets will not disappear from Mount Oread if taxed. They may, of course, have to live in more humble palaces. Mr. Anderson mentioned nine states levying such taxes. We believe that nine states still have friarities. PEN AND SCROLL: Two young men from Texas, convincing speakers, keen, pleasing and impressive, last night admirably presented the side of a question that happened to be their lot in debate, but unanimously decision against them. Should fraternities be taxed or should they not? We have read all the articles which the university has printed, and we must mud-ball hurled by Mr. Hall. We have read them with that interest which all students must feel concern for an issue of interest to them. Our fellow students. Our conclusion is based (1) on the orgaments presented in the book; (2) on Anderson, Miss Alice Cameron and others, (3) on the legal opinion of Gorill and Aber printed several months ago, (4) on our own powers of reason. Having presented our opinion on fraternity taxation as fairly as we can, we have pointed out that this is not a normal remarks. We do not belong to any social fraternity. We are not opposed to social fraternities, and do not wish to be associated with groups at K. U. We deplore such articles as that written by Mr. Hall. If the person attacked by him does not pay the fraternity taxation, and if he did not "perniciously attack" social fraternities, then do we commen­ t him. We have also said that in fact that this person's motive could not have been a soflash one. He had nothing to gain, and a valueless excuse for his failure should lose that scholarship on the grounds. Mr. Hall has implied, then glory would be reflected on Pit Kappa Their case happened to be that against the eighteenth amendment to the federal constitution and for control of the liquor traffic by the several Rhodantha will meet Sunday, Feb. 22, in the Green room of Fraser. All members should be present. JOESEPH WHEELER It should never be presumed that by one and a half hours of discussion on the night that three judges will be inducted before believe that the other persons whose previous ties they have, a debate decision ought to indicate which team presented its case most effectively. Seldom does any debate team acquire the ability poise, and effectiveness that these men had, and even more when they had a team get such an adverse decision. Sincerely, Kenneth Crumrine. Lee Furse. Editor Daily Kansan Diregarding individual views on the question, it will suffice to say that the visiting team was outstanding; one of the best that has ever achieved. M.
