AGAIN
Again the men of the campus have made a feeble effort to assert themselves and throw off the domination of women. This time it is the engineers. They are asking the right to establish a book exchange of their own, after having had to depend on the W. S. G. A. all these years. It is safe to say that their petition at first will be denied. Why duplicate work already done? But sooner or later the engineers will assert themselves. The enciniscipation of man cannot be denied.
SINGING IN THE SNOW
"My wife had a chickle today. A neighbor woman back home in a letter required; 'Is your husband working some place or just writing?' ""—O, O. McIntyre. We have read his column ourselves for quite a while.
The sun gleamed coldly upon the snow-chilled Hill. The thermometer registered negative numbers. It was Saturday, and a few ventured upon the campus. Those who did hurried breathlessly, hampered by bundled-some clothes. They spoke unkindly of the weather.
But not so of a cherry cardinal whose bright red coat glistened with the diops cake a tall tree. He sang. Of course, he hesitated now and then to shiver a bit, but he sang. Why he should have been happy in the cold when snow and ice covered his food was hard to see. Perhaps some one had remembered to put out some bread crumbs. Anyhow, he sang.
The half-frozen human beings who trudged beneath the tree hurried on. They did not sing. But they heard his song.

A RELIEF FOR INDUSTRY
In the issue of Forbes Magazine for Jan. 15 under Fact and Comment by the Editor, there is printed an editorial entitled, "Wanted: $10,000,000 and the Right Man." The Editor says this $10,000,000 and the right man are wanted to launch an effective movement to arouse American industry into organizing a national Institute of Industrial Co-ordination, for the purpose of bringing about steady employment and inducing industry to take care of those whose services it enlists.
The Editor says: "The cause calls for unstinted monetary sincerity and for an outstandingly brave leader animated by the zeal of a crusader. The right man will be of such caliber and character as to inspire the respect of even the largest employers. His sincerity and disinterestedness must be beyond question."
Admitting, for the sake of the argument, that some one can be found to donate $10,000,000, and that the "right" man can be found, there remains reason for doubting the feasibility of such a plan. That reason is that the organization of industry with the aim of alleviating its evils is beginning at the wrong end. The danger is that any "institute of Industrial
Co-ordination probably could not or would not, or would not do other than strengthen the position of capital against laborer and consumer. There is danger that organized industry, rather than alleviating labor troubles, would throw its influence against organized labor.
Rather than at the top, reconstruction of industry must begin at the foundation. An economic system based upon competition and profit cannot avoid the evils of competition and profit.
Some people accuse women of having no sense of humor. This hard to believe when we look at some of the men they marry.
DRY_RECOMMENDATIONS
The Wickersham commission has de-claimed itself definitively for stricter enforcement of the dry law. The investigators recommend a revision and simplification of federal enactments relating to prohibition, in order to make a more unified and workable code.
Court congestion has reached such proportions that the group was moved to recommend an increase in the number of Federal judges, the creation of inferior Federal police courts to deal with such minor violations as now clutter up our Federal court procedure, and the simplification of procedure in jetty cases as major remedies. The commission's report has shattered the hopes of the wets in congress who had hoped that the report might serve as an entering wedge in their favor against President Hoover's campaign for law enforcement. Instead, the findings effectively support the administration's stand, and heartened the dry forces of congress. While Commissioner Doran believes that the crux of the situation lies with the people, and that it is useless to spend large sums to impose a law which he says is not wanted, it seems now that the drive to mop up the liquor flow will be sustained for some time longer. In all, the report is in line with the conventional view that the way to enforce prohibition is by mere enforcement.
Despite what may be said for or against what has been <u>c</u>eased, it should be accomplished this far, one must consider the established fact that public opinion, which lends force to enforcement, is a slowly evolving process which cannot be hurried. Failure to bring about nation-wide prohibition, even after ten years, does not mean that is impossible.

FOR BETTER ROADS
The opinion expressed at the editors meeting in Wichita that Kansas is in need of good roads will be heartily approved by the majority of the people over the state. The problem of financing these proposed roads provoked discussion, but no sensible solution to the situation was offered. "Bert" Harris of Herington seemed to strike the note missing from the discussion when he said that roads must be built now. Let the tax problem be taken care of when the roads are completed.
The solution sounds good, but it will not take care of things properly. Roads are not absolutely permanent. The tax problem will have to be adjusted so that the roads will be paid for by the time they must be replaced. A good example is the pavement ten miles west from Herington. Mr. Harris cited this road in his statement as a road which was in need of improvement. Eleven years ago it was opened to traffic. Today the pavement is so bumpy and rough that motorists prefer to take almost any country road in preference to it. It is only logical to assume that other hard surfaced roads in the state will meet a similar fate.
On the other hand, it would be foolish to tax the people of Kansas heavily for a year or two until the roads are paid for and then cut down on the taxes. Some method must be used which will stretch the burden, in some degree at least, over the life of the roads in question.

Parrots in Zoo Are Not Affected by Strange Fever Which Humans Have Been Known to Contrac

condition they are now in, and with the present administrative policy of road improvement (which cannot be materially changed with a change of administration), it looks as if it might be possible to arrange a taxation plan of finance which would cover the people, and at the same time would leave but a small amount of outstanding bonds.
Dr. William M. Mann, director of National Zoological Park, was not
--able to give any reason why parrots in zoos should be free from this disfigurement. In some cases, our pet occasionally have it. The disease is caused by a germ which attack parrots and can cause serious distress. So far, it has not attacked any birds in the zoo. Scientists are not agreed as to the exact germ causes this disease, but there is considerable evidence that it is the Bacillus pallescens. Some authorities believe that certain species of which birds are kept on the journey up from the tropics may have some relation to the development of the disease.

Why Student Graders?
Edition Daily Kennett
There are some of us who have transferred to this University from schools in which grades were given in the regular classroom, and that instructors themselves, so that it is somewhat of a blow to find out your papers are being read and criticized for them. If you are students are not intelligent or good workers—they must be, or surely instructors would not ask them to be taken to class for an exam too partial. As an example, we'll take the case of the woman student grader. Unless she is extremely hardened to taking classes, we wouldn't make a grade that he likes, whereas the more brilliant woman student is given the grale her paper deserves. She would probably have friends. For that reason Those who do not know the grader are often not able to blame the grade for partial success. We keep his friends. Not long ago a man informed me in that he was a master grade made by another man who soldOmitted a book, "BUT," and the man sarcastically, "what can he expect. We have a student report."
The grader cannot possible know the students as well as the instructor, and I cannot imagine taking each **1**! Too many of the student grade know so much more about the people in front of us than inferior in that respect? Maybe we are, but we hate to think of our curse.
Why, then, student graders?

Arkansas School Trains Workers for Industry
A school that does not recognize college credits in its entrance requirements, that has students ranging from high school to college, its teachers no salaries, that allows the students to leave a class if they are not in class, that gives a teacher permission to kick a student out of class if he or she is lazy, that gives a teacher permission to Mena, Ark., such as an institution
A day's program starts with breakfast from 6:30 to 7:00. A student may go to class all right; if he doesn't he may sleep. In the afternoon, teachers and students should axe homework, fuel, for the school is practically dependent on its own gardens, livestock and inbir. This work is compulsory in most schools. It is also to train laborers for an industrial world only those intending to work attended the school. Graduates resumes but are recommended for jobs.

enough means to warrant placing quarantine restrictions upon parchels. When human beings contract pattiseitis, they have the symptoms of a contagious infection and are therefore the disease it fatal in 35 or 40 per cent. of the cases. Some authorities think that the patients actually have been exposed to the virus, simply weakened their resistance and made them more susceptible to pneumonia, but that the disease is certainly required to the digestive system, but in man it is localized in the lungs. An English authority, Dr. A. P. Thompson of Birmingham, said he was rarely rare, but that a number of cases of it may occur which are considered to be some form of pertonium or typhoid fever. The person sick parrot in the household is not skipped parrot in the household is not known to the physician. This was almost true of one case which Doctor Lippincott from a mistaken diagnosis in this case by the insistence of the patient had from a mistaken diagnosis in this case by the insistence of the patient had hat.
So little is known of the disease that public health authorities are unable to tell whether the three cases have been spread by a more widespread outbreak or whether they are simply an isolated occurrence. Infection from man to man could be the result of a little likelihood of anyone getting the disease who has not been in direct contact with a sick bird. How likely this is found to carry the germ, so that contact with the cage as well as the bird is dangerous, if the parrot is kept in a cage.

Paris—(UP)—From a comparison with the total national revenue of the various nations, France extracts the heaviest percentage in federal taxes, according to statistics of the National Federation of French Taxamakers.
These figures show that in proportion to her national revenue, France takes 22 per cent for national revenue and 65 per cent for great power. Great Britain is second, collecting approximately one-fifth of her country's total revenue, Germany, according to the Federation of American States, United States collects 10 per cent.

I'm sniffing in the cold
Junk stuffing in the cold
What a drippery feeling
I cuddle with it
I cough and I loseen
I shake at the knees
I pull my coat tighter
I wear it under my shirt
The porch swings no fun,
I can't feel the sun,
I can't feel which frigid
I fall when I run
I'm longing for spring
For any old thing
In the backyard I'm sniffing
In the-the-kor-cho!

Engineers Fail To Find Light To Penerate Fog

Supreme Court Reverses Own Decision in Double-Taxation of Same Property
By HERBERT LITTLE
United Press Staff Correspondent Washington—"Double taxation"—a levy by two states on the same property at transfer by death, has just been overturned by the Supreme Court to allowances when the Court reverses itself.
The Taylor decision held Minnesota and no right to tax a transfer of Minnesota in New York, but it was located in New York and owned by a New York previously taxed the transfer.
For more than 20 years the concluding decision in such cases is to allow a judge, which upholds such taxes on bonds or other debt both at the debtor's domicile and in connection with the property. But Justice Sutherland, in the majority decision in the Taylor case, has ruled that
"In this Court," said Sutherland.
"The inevitable tendency of that view is to disturb good relations among the states. The practical effect of such behavior, perhaps two years before it becomes urgent to avoid the evil by resort to reciprocal exemption laws. We are compelled to declare it untenable; to prevent misunderstanding it is definitely over-used."
The new decision drew a critical rejoinder from the veteran Justice Holmes. Speaking for himself and Justice Brandeis, he said:
"the presently approved deference is that no state may tax anything not within her borders without violating the Fourteenth Amendment."
"A good deal has to be read into the Fourteenth Amendment to give it any meaning." But the amendment does not condemn everything that we may think undesirable on the basis of our own opinions.
The Fourteenth Amendment's guarantee of "due process of law" was the one here involved.
Asserting that Minnesota was responsible for the validity of the bonds involved, and therefore had a right to tax their transfer, Holmes said:
"It seems to me that the law of possession is sary to the existence of the obligation, and that therefore, however contrary it may be to enlightened policy, it remains."
Washington—The Red Cross established disaster relief headquarters in Washington and issued emergency caused by the overflow of the Walsh and tributaries of the Mississippi.
