WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 29,1930 AN INCENDIARY Massauli grows positively dangerous with his frankness about the possibility of war in Europe. Monday he blew off with fire and steam about the irrepressible conflict in which he sees Italy engaged shortly. He accused France of surrounding Italy with enemies and charged the world with antagonism to Faciem, with hyperscience which caused it to "habile peace at Geneva and prepare for war everywhere." On the question of revision of the Versailles treaty, he declaimed, "An immense saving is what it means. The revision of treaties is not solely a matter of Italian interest, but of world interest. It is abused to hold the view that treaties cannot be revised." So brilliant a man as Bernard Shaw, long an admirer of II Duce, commands what seems to him the frankness and truth of this statement. Mussolini's position on the revision of the Vernales treaty, while it might be commendable if actuated by motives of fairness, is not so actuated. Mussolini does not want Germany's exoration; he merely feels that Italy did not get enough. He wants a treaty more advantageous to Italy, not one that recognizes nationality or even that proceeds to apportion blame for the war and to collect reparations on any really just basis. The evidences of his following in Italy are signs that he supplies some pathological need of the people of that country and that all is not well in Europe left by the war. Mussolinia's phobias are dangerous and inflammatory. He views Europe as senile and Rome as destined to regain its power of earth. It's very foolish, a prominent banker said the other day; to keep a large sum of money lying around the house. Not only foolish—it's darn near impossible. THE HIGH SCHOOL JOURNALISTS LEAVE What a feeling of superiority a high school convention does give a college student! One looks at them and thinks, "They're getting smaller every year. Now how could these youngsters possibly be in high school, let alone edit a newspaper?" After looking them over, one decides that he is really grown up. Surely when he was in high school those many years ago he was more mature-looking than these little ones. And what a nice feeling it produces to go around calling them "Deer" and "Child" and giving them advice on how to act and where to go and to be careful and not to get lost and to be sure and let you know when they come to college and you'll fix out their schedule for them. But the nice feeling probably wouldn't be so nice if one knew what they were telling the old home town about how funny it was to see John or Mary Smith putting on airs and showing off just because they are in college now. Someone remarked that this weather reminded him of spring. The Thoughtful Freshman says "Springtime in the Rockies." MID-SEMESTER CRAMS Mid-mesure days are here again And with them many a young man's fancy turns sadly to his books. He finds their pages strange and cruelly indifferent about revealing their knowledge to him. He wades through chapters and finds he has read whole pages without remembering very much of the contents. The wee, small hours of the morning come, but he has not turned back the covers of his bed. Heavy hair lid of his eyes, but he is determined that morning shall not fit him unprepared. This, he swears, is the last time. Oh, yes, he has said before, but he means it this time. It surprises him that some of the pages are interesting. From now on he intends to study a little every day. And with this resolution he yawns and turns out the light. Soo dreams have overtaken him, and he has forgotten the book upon the table which he will not touch again until final exams. A Chicago sootluyer, we read, produces that Pard and Edison will both die during November of this year and that Col. Charles Lindbergh will also he increased h帘册 one secretly, that same month. This note is from his wife. It mentions the day of President Wilbanks' death several months in advance. Another Casandra. DISARM THE CAMERAMEN The referee decided at the conclusion of the Yale-Army football game last Saturday that, as each team had scored seven points to the best of his knowledge, it should be called a tie. This seemed a logical conclusion, and newspapers carried the next day to the effect that Yale and the Army had fought each other to a 7-7 standstill. Now reprems have it that the Army got its touchdown by illiams means and by rights Yale should have been declared the winner. It seems that somebody with a movie camera took the pictures of the game, and when the film was untangled and looked at through a little beam of light one of the Army forces was mischievous, boosting another Army bank, who incidentally had the ball, over the goal of obtaining the rule behind it, revealed that such a possession is legal in the best sense. So the Army touchdown, according to such an interpretation, should not have counted. A dispute arises. What are toolbox games going to bome to if movie cameramen are not banned from the addictions? There will be disputes and more of them as long as pictures of the nakedes are shown. What if an enterprising photographer should get a picture of the spectators busy at their flasks? What if the reel were run backwards and a player dash for the wrong goal? All sorts of scandal might develop. And if they ever add talks . . . . An itawan who died recently left a provision in his will for the building of a library in which no woman is to be allowed to enter. "Why didn't he leave his money for the building of a women-less barbershop?" asks the Cynical Sophomore. In past years each of the six organizations represented has separately solicited the entire campus. With such a system, students were asked to make contributions at six different times during the year and naturally resented so many requests. ONE FOR ALL A campaign combining drives is being instigated by the executive committee of the campus chest movement. Six separate organizations are going to consolidate their efforts into one which will be so managed as to reach every student in the University. A large organization of solicitors will go to work in an effort to get some contribution from everyone. The success of the new plan will be determined by the co-operation which it receives in the initial efforts Nov. 11, 12, and 13. The committee in charge is making every possible effort to put the idea over to the students and should receive generous support from the entire group. Each organization participating in the drive is worthy of support and can only realize such aid when its quota of the budget has been reached. Every student should consider it a personal obligation to make a contribution to the fund. Stephen Crane, a young novelist of the 90's, not very well known when alive, once wrote a book called "Magic." It was to sell for fifty cents. "MAGGIE" Few bought, and the majority of the copies were destroyed. That was in 1833. The other day a presentation copy of the first edition brought $1125; needs to say, the price will rise with time. The sale of "Magpie" recalls "The Red Edge of Courage," Crane's best-known book. These two and a few other unknowns are all he wrote; but his reputation rests securely upon them. Young Crane preceded "All Quiz" by thirty years or more. He never saw the Civil war, of course, yet many a veteran of that conflict admired his ability to depict its scenes. As a Journalist, adventurer and writer, Crane led a most interesting life until he died prematurely of black fever. "Mangie" ought to be rather interesting. According to our Americancries of success, a price of $125 for any book so recent indicates a potential According to scientists we receive heat from stars. GSI times faster than the fastest star visible to the unseen eye. Our indicators are a lot lower than that, but the amount of heat produced is about the same. The explosion Monday of gas in a McAlester coal mine, which probably killed 29 miners should be thoroughly investigated. POSSIBLY PREVENTABLE It may have been inevitable and altogether beyond the fault of the owners. But probably some detail of ventilation, some failure to provide a guarantee of safety caused the loss of 23 lives and poverty in 28 families. The cause of the explosion has not been determined or the guilt fixed. A thorough study should be made both to prevent future disasters of a similar sort and to find if anyone, by neglect or false thriftiness, is to be termed guilty of maulmaster. Miners and their families have little protection. They are previously refused insurance; their wages are not high, their lives averages rather short, and their employment is not steady. If the mine owners cannot improve their industries and run with considerable interest in the human beings who work in them, society will ultimately have to take them over as a matter of necessity and humanity. Officials of the national association of finance companies say that the installment business has been satisfactory this year in spite of the business depression. Everyone has his Ford, even if it is in the only place he has to hang his hat. Obviously, students waste time. If there is anything on which a commenter could cake an absolute statement of fact, it would be on the wastage of good hours by students. Students do waste time. SALVAGE Peculiarly enough, we venture to suggest one way of saving more time to waste. Simple as it is, it consists in the elimination of time spent studying for quizzes. In the past week enough time has been spent in such vain pursuits that it were collected and spent in manual labor, would build a canal to irrigate crops or create a constructive work. Yet as off as quizzes begin to appear on assignment sheets, so oft are the books pulled out, dusted off, and gingerly opened. For the benefit of grades, feelings, and irritability in general, if some students used patent markers to indicate where assignments were made from day to day there would be no need to waste hours for weeks on end and then slave away over the tomes the few days before quizzes. Did we say 'slave?' Editor Daily Kansan: --and the YEARBOOK OF THE AMERICAN SHORT STORY Edited by Edward J. O'Brien Our Correspondents Henry McCullough Arapaho, Oklahoma, 10-28 Your editorial "A More Social Viewpoint" is splendid. It goes to the very heart of a subject solded treen, i.e., the underlying philosophy of our society, as is the key to writing that the layman expects to find in a college publication.
