HOOVER'S REALIZATION President Hoover has asked his cabinet and the Federal Reserve Board to prepare plans for mitigating and overcoming the country's financial depression. It is a courageous and much needed step by the President, and he seems to have come to realize defiance the tremendous drag that unseen creats in our economic system. Unemployment is a highly complex problem. Programs for meeting it should provide for public employment bureau, a census and classification of types of unemployment, unemployment insurance, elimination by employers of seasonal ups and downs, governmental building, and a shorter working day and week. A formal statement of (a) Society of Industrial Engineers declares, "The boy big of the job is unemployment. (c) Our workers work to do, and they will buy." We have never handled our economic problems intelligently. When we realize the interdependence of the various functions in society—labor, capital, enterprise, and science—we shall realize the necessity of an objective, rational system of co-ordinating and collectivizing all economic processes. THE GOOD OLD DAYS ARE BACK "Yes, the 'gray tineeties' have overtaken us — a wide-brimmed hat — a slender waistline — a shoe-top-length skirt—a muff—a blouse of wool—dark stockings with dark shoes" writes the fashionists editor of the Star from her New York vantage point. Depression or no depression, the clothes designers will lead the women by the nose as usual, and empty the pocketbooks of lots of poor husbands and fathers who are wondering when they will make another sale. Black and white, we read, are "the" thing. We may well mourn in such habiliments. And then these bommelike hats such as we've been seeing on Oread for a month have just got to New York. And so on and on. Clothes manufacturers are real geni They twist women around their fingers and make them plead to be bamboozled. It's an art. Maybe it would be a good idea for President Hoover to hire some of these experts to rid of all our various economic and social ills. TRUTH OR BUNCOMBE? Fourteen million radio in the United States. The greatest possible medium for the formation of public opinion. A device capable of bringing culture and entertainment into homes to the privileges of education have been denied. Likewise the great at possible advertising medium now in existence. Such is the present status of the radio, which only a few years ago was the magic box for all to marvel at and admire from a distance. Today we carelessly twist the dials and bring voices from every part of the land into our own homes. Fourteen million radios mean education for all, or slush for all. They mean knowledge- or propaganda. It is up to us to use them intelligently in eliminating provincialism and ignorance. THE RIGHT OF APPEAL With much discussion centering upon the problem of freshman paddling it is well to consider upon what constitutional right the practice is based. To be sure the swinging of the dreaded club has evolved as has the Rock Chalk pils and freshman initiation. The custom has been incorporated into the constitution of the associated men of the University of Kansas by preceding counsels and is left to the present group to be en-ored. As the bill now exists in the constitution, it provides for the enforcement of Kansas traditions by use of the paddle. The bill will stand until the proper number of male electors undertake to repeal it by the proper procedure through the student council. The council wishes expression by freshmen on the subject. It will be willing to consider seriously the complaints of anyone who wishes to appear before it by signed letter or through the campus opinion column of the Kansas or in person. It guarantees security to protesting minority groups in the belief that democratic government such as we have rests on discussion conducted with freedom. It hopes to be fair to all sides. No government is beyond reproach, much less student government. Ours has developed to the point where it can, if it will, show material benefit to many departments of the University. Its action should be the crystalized opinion of the student body. It is representative government, and its function is to strike a fair balance between all interests.

The wind sighs again Just a soft little sigh It hates too many leaves Bod and greens Wither and die To feel too much their loss— More will come. Dear Mr. McClelland: Harold Kelso sent me a copy of one of your editorial pages. It is, I think one of the bravest editorial pages I ever saw. It was written in a way it is also a thoroughly competent page I particularly liked your editorial on Organized Snobbery—which doesn't mean that I didn't very much like the others, especially The Legion and Pro I hope you will keep up the good work. Sinceely yours. Note—The issue sent Mr. Thomas not evidence for Friday, Oct. 10. The editorial on Organized Snobbery was suggested by the editor to Mrs Mur- The Kansan.

Editor Daily Kansan: The Kansas calls attention to the fact that the Bausch-Bausch combination which received one vote in the Soil Owl's contest for the perfect combination of all three types or the Jim-Jim combination. It seems to me there is no question about the matter. Since only one voter did not believe, evidently it was the Jim-Jim affair. Hoping to have cleared you up this matter, I remain.

Previously he is made to work on the train in the world of fire represented by another train which looks very much like an eagle.

Lilion is fantastic. More properly it would be termed a spectacle, yet its allure is undeniable; it concerns a man named Lilian, a self-faceted, conceived doll of women whose life has been taken up by his own life rather than remain to face the consequences of his self-defeat. Those of us who tend to criticize the absence of anything serious in the audience as a subject for reflection in the picture theater are more international stage success, Lalium. Upon viewing the picture we are very fascinated by the realism of realizing that many of the things which we read and say would be equally fantastic we put them before us in an PEN AND SCROLL: GERMAN CLUB: The first meeting of the German club will be held on Monday, Oct. 20, at 4:36 in room 313 of Froner hall.
