FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 19, 1930 RELIEF BY A CRUEL PROCESS Chairman League of the Farm board has one merit: he does not nine words. He says just what he thinks. Yesterday he told the mortgage bankers of America to try to make farms larger in order to reduce production costs. The Kansan knows little about the causes of the agricultural depression in America and even less to how correct it. But it does seem that Legge's advice, while it would help, suggests a cruel method of control. The only way mortgage bankers can make farms larger is to foreclose and then rent out combined farms to the previous owners. The farmers, if such a thing ever happens, will tend to become more and more peasants by losing control over the ground they till. Some form of collective control, both of production and marketing, must almost inevitably enter the farm question; but we trust, for humanitarian reasons, that something less cruel than the blind and inhuman laws of economics will at last be used to overcome the trouble. RHINITIS POSSIBLY It's good to hear the old whistle again. Eight o'clock—there goes the whistle. Twenty after the hour—the horse the whistle. It's distinctive, that's what it is; it isn't like a set of those pestiferous ratty little electric bells most schools set up to make their students miserable. Ah, that whistle—but it doesn't sound quite the same as it did last spring. Do you think so? Has it caught cold or something? That whistle is like the blast of a steamboat, somehow. After it blows, Mount Oread sees to cast off her moorings and drift away from a mundane world through paradise, just as a boat leaves a pier for realms unknown. That whistle is really like nothing else in America, so far as the educational line goes. It does sound like a factory, to be sure, but it takes genius to realize that a university and a factory are fundamentally analogous. Every editor in the country took a crack at Mencken for getting married; we decided to be superior and say nothing. We see, however, that he has been elected to honorary membership in Kiwis. Alas, alas, our grief is too much The idol had feet of clay, after all. BRYAN UNIVERSITY Out of the Dayton evolution trial of five years ago one thing at least has come. The William Jemmings Bryan University, dedicated to "the higher education of men and women under auspices distinctly Christian and spiritual as a testimony to the supreme glory of the Lord Jesus Christ and to the divine inspiration and infallibility of the Bible," opened yesterday with freshman classes. The Dayton trial was mainly conspicuous, as a New York columist remarked, by the complete absence from it of both science and religion. It was a farce in which Darrow and Bryan attempted to settle the question of evolution by calling each other names. sut something concrete has resulted A university was suggested by Bryan; now it is named for him. It will not lack money. We congratulate the founders of our new colleague for their sincerity. They make no bones about their stand, like Gibraltar, they and their institution will always be in place. Such perfect candor and nuance are to be admired, if not emulated, by those of us who are blessed with a universe than Bryan and his followers. CURFEW SHALL NOT RING TONIGHT It was a heroic young lady who lung on to the bell clapper in Cromwell's time to save her hero and, for her, to win a battle in "Curlew shall Not Shut Tonight." We need more such. On our own campus, right now, there is the opportunity for some fair damsel to step up to the bat—these metaphors will get strung nicely, won't they—and hang, minutely, on the K. U. library curry- Watson library closes too early, in short. What do they think we are? Must we go home and to bed at 10 Must study cease at such an 'bour'? How would eleven do? Or twelve? Twelve—the witching hour of midnight, when witches crow and various other intriguing things happen? Eleven at least, if not twelve. A library that closes at 10 is more nearly a bhouse than anything else. So Marion Talley is to study singing once more. Another dirt farmer has deserved us and left for the big city to look for a job. RACIAL SEGREGATION The principle of segregation, on an equal basis, is frequently advocated as a means of settling the Negro problem. Let the Negros have their own institutions and activities, rivaling similar white practices, it is urged—always on an equal basis, of course. The argument is plausible, but in practice it has always worked out to the Negroes' utter disadvantage. Jim Crow accommodations on southern railroads, for instance, the same as white accommodations; but the service is far inferior: the cars are usually of wood, dirty, old, and often given a front position which is most dangerous in case of accident. Equality with white conditions is never seriously considered. Segregation never has worked, nor can it with traditions as they are. The most vivid recent example of the idea comes from the United States government itself, which attempted to send Negro gold star mothers over to Europe on cattle ships. Most of them, in spite of their tremendous desire to see their sons' graves, refused to go. We applaud them. The question of race must ultimately be settled fairly definitely, just as every problem is ultimately settled. But what a long, slow fight justice will have to wage! NYE AND MRS. McCORMICK Politically, nothing better could have happened to Mrs. MecMcickmick than Senator Nye's behavior in trailing her campaign expenditures. His activity in tapping wires and searching desks, if he did such things as she charges, was retransmitsible to the extreme, and his apparent attempt to evade publicity and exposure, if such is the explanation for his later mysterious actions, is unworthy of a Senator. But Senator Nye does not face an election, Mrs. McCormick does. The shamefulness of the former helps Mr. McCormick because it serves as a smoke screen to hide her excessive campaign expenditures. The publicity she is getting tends to cover up her efforts in campaigning would be no neqqee but be conspicuous. We attempt no defense whatsoever for the Senator. He has acted throughout in a thoroughly disreceible manner if her charges are correct; but it must be pointed out that he could hardly have chosen purposely to do anything more likely to play right into the woman candidate's hands than just what he did do. If he had not disgraced himself so much, it might almost be suspected that the two had plotted together for Mrs. McCormick's express benefit. All members of the Jay James must report at 4:30 Monday afternoon at the rest room in central Administration building. JAV JANES: MEXICO PRODUCING LESS COIN; AFRICA SHIPS GRAIN Mexico City—Immense shipments of African corn received here has called attention that Mexico, the original home of the grain, is producing less, and that apparently loosening control in the agricultural dominance of its native products.
