MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 29, 1930 Senator De Broucère, the Belgian armament expert, testifies that Mussolini has developed extensive fortifications in his country and is apparently about ready for war. The dreams of Mussolini to re-establish the Roman empire have long been known. His desire to surpass France as the Mediterranean sea ruler has caused between the two countries much hostility, which has often been increased several times—most notably at the recent London naval conference. Massalinis the egomani has carried him to assuming ridiculous poses, which, unfortunately, are extremely dangerous. To keep Italy united behind him, he has been forced to go further and further in his warlike gestures and gradually to near the place where a war is almost necessary to keep for him his power. Unless he is a fool, however, it is not likely he will try to start a war just* yet. He has several preliminary steps to take before victory would even be possible: first, he must make the other nation appeal the aggressor and thus enlist world sympathy; second, he must have ample financial resources, which means he must be able to give guarantees and security to American bankers; third, he must try to nullify the Anglo-French naval alliance; fourth, he must, if only by breaking his word, achieve at least sea-parity with France. How long it will be before he can do all these things no one can say. A discontented Italy may force him into an early war as a demeanous means of saving his power in his own country; if, however, Italy remains contented under his leadership and lets him develop his plans as he wishes, there is still some chance of something stopping his designs. He is young, but a bomb has never been much of a respector of age. The prospect of war is extremely great, however much we may hope that it will be avoided; but perhaps the good sense of the people of France and Italy will stop them short of rushing foolishly into certain disaster. STUDENT HEALTH All of the public and parochial schools in Kansas City, Kansas, have been quarantined for infantile paralysis. What is more, Kansas is reported to have more cases of this illness than any other state. This knowledge does not make us feel any too safe. Although paralysis is a children's disease, older people do have it many times. Other maladies are also prevalent in the country at this time. it behaves each one of us to take care of ourselves. In such a large group as the student body we have not only our own safety to consider but the common good of everyone to think about. If each individual would take the proper precautions and use common sense, it might be possible for one year to pass in our school with very little serious illness. RHODES SCHOLARSHIPS The Rhodes scholarship applications are again open to men students of Kansas, constituting one of the most coveted honors—perhaps the most coveted, all things considered—that college men can win. The scholars will total four from each group of six states into which the United States has been divided. They will pass first the board of judges on their campus; then a state board will select; and finally a district committee. The reward of being successful is a stipend of $400 a year at Oxford for at least two years, and possibly three. To those who really wish with an unexcelled opportunity to do deep study, the Rhodes scholarships offer the best educational possibility. This person posed to be required, as listed by Rhodes in his will, are these: scholarship, character, leadership, and physical vigor. Such an exacting set of requirements can never be altogether filled; but there are many men on this campus who would do very well to apply. TRAILERS The state of Missouri has declared war on trailers running over its highways. To be sure, the governor of Missouri had to be forced off the road by one before any serious prosecution started, but since he met with a mishap, it is probable that justice will be swift. Automobile trailers of enormous length are accustomed to travel everywhere at high rates of speed, apparently with no legislation to stop them. As many as a half dozen or more cars are frequently carried on them. To pass such a caravan is extremely dangerous, especially if the road is hilly or curved. A recent accident involving a car that was forced over an emblankment demonstrated just exactly how dangerous such things are. If Kansas does not now have adequate legal restricting the width, length, and speed of highway users, it should be provided with it. And the legislation should be enforced when once proclaimed. If we have to take our governor out and let him be run off the road by one of the critters—well, if it must be done, perhaps it will. Evidently, the Maine Stein Song was not potent enough to stop the Yale football team. Another example of the wil influence of beer, doubtless. If this is, as some have said, "the age of philanthropists," Daniel Guggenheim, who died Saturday, was an ex-occupier of the latter aspect of this sort d. age. PHILANTHROPIC PATERNALISM Raised by a wealthy father, Guggenheim early entered into the management of his father's various business enterprises and annuated an income fortune. After he had secured his income, he could afford to look about him and devote himself to "unplift." He came, in time, to be a mild sort of liberal and to believe that his employees had the right to organize for their own interests; and he once said that he would resign his position if he felt his employees were unjustly treated. Such a contingency never occurred, of course, so we have no text of his sincerity. But he voiced liberal sentiments, at any rate. Most outstanding among his activities was the Guggenheim fund for the promotion of aeronautics, which sponsored aviation tours by Lindbergh and Byrd after their remarkable flights, and which undoubtedly has done much to advance and make aviation knowledge and interest public. Guggenheim also contributed largely to charitable societies and to the development of public concerts in New York City. In short, he was a good example of a phase **o** society which so far we have not learned to improve: philanthropic paternalism. Great sums have been contributed to worthy causes by men who have on their hands a surplus of money, and society has undoubtedly benefited. It would be better, of course, for society to undertake on its own initiative the positive development of such things as art, science, social work, and the like without leaving them to the capability of rich old men. But until it does, what very likely have to continue to rely on men like Guggenheim. SOMETHING FOR NOTHING Who said the glorious past was gone? "You can't get something for nothing any more—in the good old days it was different, of course; but now—" Who said that? He's crazy. Yesterday, in case you didn't already know, was free-watermilton on a farm somewhat north of Lawrence.

Sun Sports Demonstrated to Produce Direct Effect Upon Monsoon Regions DOROTHY WOODWAED. President Prague—Discovery by Dr. S. Hanzik, of the Meteorological Institute at the Charles University here, that attention was drawn to the importance of the earth's varies directly with the number of spots on the sun, may bring a step nearer the complete uninterrupted cycle of solar conditions and terrestrial weather. In a report to the British scientific weekly, "Nature," Doctor Hanzik annotates the fact that for a large area in central Asia, south of latitude 55 degrees north, east of the Carpathian Sea, Mesopotamia, north of Turkey and west of Turkestan and the plains of Irudes, the air pressure and anemoprops increase together. A second such area lies north of Turkey, where the Arabian Sea across southeast irudes Selcoer Services To say that multitudes were attracted by the prospect of something absolutely free, with no strings attached, would only be putting it mildly. The people present were as the sands on the seashore. (So were the watermelon seeds.) It must be that we live in an aququisitive society; or maybe people just like to see such open-hundred hospitality. But to a Scotchman the prospect of free watermelon must have been intriguing beyond description. Indeed, it was. If all the watermelons that were there were placed one on top of the other -why, they would very probably fall down shortly. But the machine age must not have overwhelmed all of us.

GLORIA WANSON "These three covers," Doctor Hauklin says, "cover approximately the greater surface area of the tropics. The fact that the暑opper period manifests itself always in the same way within this area suggests that the summer incubation of the atmosphere through pressure conditions in the mornings regulates wind speeds that blow steadily for part of the year from one direction, reversing their direction during the other part." Coming Thursday for 3 DAYS JOHN McCORMACK "SONG OF HEARTS" A "SONG O' MY HEART" Doctor Hanikil has also sought for a region where there is a negative relation between the pressure goes down that is, where the pressure goes down as the number of apoptosis increases. This phenomenon has been observed. If his theory is correct, and the inference of solar radiation on the earth is correct, this implies that reason why other parts of the earth are hotter than others is due to a hit in the effects reaching them. there is any such area, it is probably a long strip stretching across the Pacific south of Hawaii and north of the equator.
