Y. W. C. A. Discusses Problems of Spending Money
The series of discussions which have been conducted as a part of the Y. W. C. A. Fellowship and Finance Frials to students at the University regarding reasons for budgeting, I reply to the questions: "Why plan a budget?" Why keep a record of expenditures? Edna Smith has made summary of these disclosures.
"Budgeting enables one to spend on the basis of his highest intentions, not on momentary impulse. It fills the need for a deeper, more money for the wishes of life."
In regard to the relation of money and character development, Miss Smith said, "The manner of making decisions that depend upon spatulate spending develop instability. Spending for amusements, hospitality, and week-end trips made after consideration, enables one to choose the friendship between acquaintances who are over. Self discipline and consistency in decision strength character. Living beyond one's means means carrying a period of re-adjustment or change. In these these re-adjustments is a searching test of character and personality."

Two Philosophers Find They Agree on Major Points
Russell and Durant Use Education as Theme While Amusing Audience
Audience
"Honorable chairman, worthy opponent, and follow failures," was the greeting recorded the audience last night by Will Durant in answering Bertrand Russell's indictment of modern education in the Russell-Durant University Auditorium on the subject "15 Modern Education a Failure."
Arreting that they were not far apart in their contentions and that they were thinking of different systems, Russell and Russell, English philosopher and writer, and Doctor Durant, his Americain colleague, had roads as to the attitude of children toward knowledge and the progress before them to intermediate and grammar schools today.
With all indications of being confronted with a complexity of profound statements and theories, the attendee is encouraged to have an evening of apparent edible humorous entertainment but which carried with it the full and unabridged points so necessary for the understanding of the situation in an analysis of modern education.
Audience Entertained
Freedom of thinking and gaining of knowledge were subjects of dispute in the early 20th century, but Mr.RANT's statement that we have in our schools today more free and individual thinking than 50 years ago, and by how much? They are still skeptical and curious as to the knowledge which is being hurriedly forced upon them. "The ideal school should be an environment for child intelligence, self-reliance, and co-operation," said Doctor Russell in opening the attack on modern education with his trademark, "that is of breaking down the factor of strong nationalism, the apparent glory of the native country as given in textbooks."
Co-operation is Narrow
"Because of better equipment an better methods of instruction, education has more possibilities than any in the past. Durant in defending modern education. Comparisons of equipment textbooks, range of subjects and technique of teaching used several years ago in our schools today as found in our common schools
"intolerance has come to be a characteristic of every one because of lack of self-relance in our schools, the教的 and the uninformed, to disregard the ideas of the herd." Co-operativeness appears to a limited extent in our systems of education but is the kind which is found most in modern societies, together less each hang separately.
"Intelligence, sympathy, and joy of
"We have been made crises, and until
we can stop all our crises, the education will continue to be a failure"
"was given by Doctor Russell as a
promise," he said.
Doctor Durant made his personal suggestion for continuing to improve the curriculum to catch up with the birth rate in an effort to make college graduates numb. of applicants, and smash political corruption, and also to teach birth control to the poor poor.
The R.O.T.C. units of the University have reserved a special section in the auditorium for the all-University to be held Monday, Armistice day.
*Impoverishment of the CIV.* Doctor Durant thought that the success doctor made in his failure to its improvement, by its failure to meas. pre up to its ideals.
The debate was given with 40-minute intervals for opening the attack and 30 minutes for retiring the strokes. No decisions were made, Henkel, an Inkestle, editor of the Kanada Journal, criticized the bate, suggesting that individual opinions of the audience would be more
R. O. T. C. Units Reserve Section for Convocatio
The fearlessness and independence of college graduates was a point of greatest dispute between the debaters. Doctor Darwin pointing to the fact that nothing was left unquestioned as evidence of evolution is the success of modern education.
Brigadier-General Stuart Heintzelman, commandant of the command and general staff school at Fort Leuworth and the principal speaker of the morning, will deliver an address on "The Significance of Armored Day."
A large crowd was in attendance at the debate, the first number of the lecture course series of the season.
Disagree on Self-reliance
Russell-Durant Sayings
"Two kinds of knowledge—what the pupil will learn and what the teacher will teach.
"Education is that which is done to young people in schools."
"In education we all hang together lest we hang separately."
"In common schools we are taught how to read, and in college what not to read.
"Define knowledge is not object of education but in principle it is difficult to be entirely young. "One per cent of young people are illiterate.
"We should teach children to read the newspapers, not to spend time, but to teach them the art newspaper what really happened."
"We teach that honesty is the best policy and persuade young people that policy will sometimes pass for honesty.
New Indian Radicalism Displaces Gandhi, Says Noon Forum Speake
Superiority. Not Inferiority
Population
The development of a new radicalism in India which has superceded even the radicalism of Gandhi was discussed by Miss Olive Gould, traveler secretary of the Student Volunteer Movement at the月内UNCheeky M.C.A. today in her address on "Young India's Its Task."
Masa Gould, who has spent five years at Jubbullurel in central India, said that the country is undergoing last year. In India, she had an opportunity to come in contact with her peers.
R. O. T. C., Memorial Union 12 p.m.
Twelve Languages Spoken
The main obstacle to be overcome in this project was the fact that there were twelve languages in India which differed widely. Also, an inferior complexity had been developed in the area between the magnificence of western civilization as it was pictured to them, and their own squalid conditions. Furthermore, cause and effect were an element in western education entirely unknown to the Indian mind, which has thus been hinged on a firm belief in fatalism.
Confidence Comes
Recently, Miss Gould states, the Indian inferiority $\complex$ *x* has changed to a superiority of the ancient glory and splendor of the Indian empire. Traditions have been awaived in this respect and look down on western civilization.
Antagonism toward western civilization has been intensified by the refusal of the English to tolerate the self-government, by breaking off promises to the Mohammedans that Turkish territory should not be invaded and, by the massacre of unarmed Indians by English troops. The glowing ideals presented by missionaries to the Indians when Indians read the Chicago Tribune and other American newspapers which are published daily in the large cities of India.
At the present time the intense radicals in the Indian National Congress have gone on record as demanders of Gandhi's decision to be mentored by the end of this year, Gandhi who advocated a naser policy of try-honing and enforcing it 1932, has been shoved into the background. The next development, according to Miss Gould, cannot be pre-
The next moon luncheon forum will be held on Nov. 21. The speaker who had promised to come on this date has been forced to cancel the engagement but a substitute will be secured as soon as possible and announced to the student body, according to Sam Carter, Y.M.C.A. secretary.

U. S. Senate Sees Most Bitter Fight in Years on Tariff
Moses Calls Westerners
"Sons of Wild Jack-
asses" Attack
Follows
Washington, Nov. 8—(UP) The appellation "Sons of Wild jack-asks," which to prominent Republican Senators, now has been applied to western Republicans in a dinner speech here last night, provoked a reply from the westerners in the Senate today which Senatotaria Baldwin said would be appropriate for bitterness and personal invective.
The dry Iowa independent, Senator Brookhart, started the exchange by saying with a frankness that the oratorical eloquence of Moses apparently had been unimpaired by the dinners as Moses attended last night.
The climax was reached when Senator George W. Morris, Nebraska Independent Republican, called Joseph Carney, a former state factories, association "a robber."
Likening Grundy's activities against the importers to the Chicago bootleg gang war, Norris suggested the consumers would be better off if the government furnished both sides with firearms, and let them fight it out.
Borah said the coalition should consider itself lucky that Moses only called them Wild Jackasses instead of what he really thought of them.
Nye said the northwesterners should organize a "Society of American Jacksieks" to kick out the eastern leaders. He said the Northwest was more solid against the Republican than ever been over any issue in history.
Wheeler warned the western Republications that Moses was chairman of the Republican senatorial campaign committee.
"He is not only voking his own
own but those of his New England
leaders," he said. "He was
Wheeler said. "He is not only
reflecting on you or on your fath-
er."
Moses was presiding over the Senate at the time, lounging back in his swivel chair, his arms folded, munching rum.
That Joseph R. Grundy, head of the ammoniac manufacturers Association, said his group "little because they came from "back-little commonwealth" as compared
"The people of the Northwest will wake up to the fact of who is dominating the Republican party," said Wheeler, "and why these leaders want us to become a more populist nation while they put raw materials of the Northwest on the free list."

Volcano's Toll Rivals
Pompeiiian Devastation
Area Survey Reveals
Quiet After 3 Days Belching
Santa Maria Crater Leaves
Horror and Death
Guatemala City, Nov. 8—(UP)—The belching crater of Santa Marina volcano was quiet today, but from a distance we could see its base searchers returned with stories of horror that rivalled the tales of destruction of the ancient city of Pompeii.
Nearly a week has passed since Santa Maria, quiet for 27 years, broke forth in a three-day eruption which is unofficially estimated to have taken a toll of at least 300 lives. More many lie in crowded hospitals, where the rubble of stones and gushing molten lava of the "Vesuvius" of Guatemala.
It was 9:30 p. m. Saturday when deep subterranean rumblers broke through the quiet of the coffee plantation, the merrymaking of the plantation settlers. The roar gathered in intensity, enveloping the southern slopes, and within a few minutes, ashes, burning over a region 100 miles square, rolling over a region 100 miles square.
Many Settlers Were Asleep
Hours afterward, the first few searching parties penetrated the house and entered the horror. Whole families were found in their huts, their arms locked in ambrace where they had prayed hopefully for help. All those who were found in the fields. Some bodies were mangled, others were charged beyond identification and buried.
Many of the settlers were asleep. Many were victims of the intense heat; others choked to death in the poisonous fumes, the dust laden atmosphere made worse by steam from the oven in which fell over the molten lava.
On the dressing table of one bedroom, searchers found a thermometer, the mercury of which had risen to the ten in the intense heat.
Marimba Players Found Dead
A band of marimba players were found in a hudle, their instruments beside them, and their dead hands still holding the pina with which they strummed their instruments. They resembled mummies of fiery-makers. Reverenced mummies.
The only living thing in a settlement of 25 people was a tiny gite from a cemetery. The lady had her dead mother. The child was taken to a hospital and laid besides scores of others who had escaped before they were trapped by the encircling walls.
The searchers still were attempt-
ment, men, women,
and children, sighted on a ye-
dayear on a high mount, sur-
rounded by lava which was flowing

Jayhawker Team Reaches Oklahoma to Fight Sooners
Third Homecoming Crowd of Season Will Watch Play at Norman Saturday
Members of the Kansas football quad, each with a savage determination to do his part in bringing victory to his team right for Norman where they will engage the pace-setting Oklahoma boners in football Saturday after receiving their first Big Six schedule. The game will come as a climax to the season and one of the best battles in the season, expected to ename when the referee blows the starting whistle. This game has played before this year. *Kansas has played before this year.*
A great deal depends upon the final outcome of the game, for if the Jayhawks succeed in toppling the Oklahoma outfit from its present vanity, then they will win Six teams the whole complexity of the championship race will assume a different color. In the event that Kansas wins Oklahoma will be forced to resign its advantageous position on the road and the coaches who have also thus far gone undefeated and who will remain idle this week end intently awaiting the outcome of the campaigns being other members of the Big Six loop.
Missouri and the Kannas Aggies would welcome an Oklahoma defeat, especially if they should triumph over Iowa. The players games this week end, for it would give new impetus to the teams in the state. Both teams are both being tied for second place at the present time. A Jayhawker win would materially bolster the team's efforts to avoid a loss. Sara are determined to remain in the running. Iowa State, who has not yet won a conference game, appears to be the only team without a win.
Final Workout
Coach Hargius gave his pikin warriors their final workout on native soil yesterday afternoon and drilled them on pont formations and defensible plays to counterattack the team's movement. The session was preceded by a chalk talk during which Coach Hargius gave last minute advice to his players. After a short workout the men were sent to the locker room with instructions to be in bed by 2:30, aboard the pull-up train and will carry the team to Socorland.
Spectators who saw last night's drill were enthusiastic over the peep and snap displayed by the Jayhawk squand and made dire predictions of what would happen when they go against the victory-hunry griden from Mount Oread.
The coaching staff and the football squad, 28 strong, departed for the Sooner strength last night. Not about anything at all, but about noon today. The team ate breakfast in Arkansas City this morning. We were going to watch for a light workout this afternoon.
Bausch May Not Play
The members of the coaching staff who will accompany the team on the trip are Coach Hargas, Coach Mike Allen, Coach Riley, Coach Alen.
