Watt Associate Editor Alice Senal Editorial Writers --known Haskell Indians and made them look like a bunch of grade school boys. If they can retain the ability and panchet evidence in spring practice, all that's necessary to beat Missouri and give Nebraska a stiff battle to a doubtful ending is for Coach Harpgs to flip a coin to determine the starting line-up. Kansas can measure up to Nebraska whose strength lies in their large squads of plant men. A successful season on the football field will mean that many more men who would go to Nebraska or Missouri for their football opportunities will be attracted to K. U. With the present coaching staff and the enthusiasm usually displayed by the student body, there will not be a school in the conference capable of making the old Jayahawk how his head.

TUESDAY, APRIL 30, 1929 WHAT MOTHERS WANT Saturday, May 4, is the official Mother's Day at the University. On that day, the mothers and fathers of the students of the University of Kansas are expected to visit the campus and to be guests of honor at different activities which have been planned especially for them. It is their chance to view and become acquainted with the camps which is for four years the foster home of their sons and daughters. The University welcome them. The idea underlying this Mother's Day is essentially as it should be. But in practice there is a danger which threatens the beauty and simplicity of the day. It is the danger of commercializing on the original idea through a chopping display of sentimentality. Candy, flower, card, and gift dealers are playing up this sentimentality until the true 'meaning' of the day becomes lost in high-powered advertising. After all, mothers and fathers will appreciate little attention and kindness any day during the year. And it is not the things that are bought that will be most apreciated by them. Many a freshman thinks he will never get round shoulders carrying a senior pin. PHILIPPINE SUGAR A limit is put on Philippine sugar to the amount of 500,000 tons a year, yet other countries, the United States included, say it will not injure the industry. It will simply stop the growing of it. Straight-jacketing does an industry harm, and it may eventually make other industries feel like "whipped curs" and use a kick, too. Maybe the sugar industry will be cut to 100,000 tons soon, for all those poor people know. If this commodity must prosper it cannot be tied up. The Timberlake resolution wounds wreck the whole economic fabric of the Philippines, a thing which the United States said 30 years ago was good for the islands. Political, cultural and social progress have been stressed, and even the standard of living raised, but their economic development has not been dealt with accordingly. The trouble with "free speech" is that a large part of it is free from thought. FOOTBALL Spring football ended recently and predictions for the coming year's success on the gridiron are heard all over the campus. For the first time in a number of years the merchants and really biggest supporters of Kansas football, can be heard commenting that the team looks better than in any year since Potty Clark was here. The team is larger both in size and strength, there were more men out for spring practice and more enthusiasm was apparent than for some time. The squad played the widely Now that Marion has decided to go onto the farm, standards of hog-culling should take a sudden rise. ROUND TWO President Hoover has won the first round in his farm legislation fight. The house has adopted without amendment the bill reported by the committee on agriculture. Efforts to amend were numerous and in some cases strategic. Not only were many members of the house compelled to reverse their stand in the preceeding congress) on the equalization fee but they were forced to reject the deleniture plan. It is hardly possible that the senate will accept the house bill as it stands. The senate does not do things that way. There are many parts of the bill which senators who favor its general plan will seek to modify. The question of leaving the salary of the chairman of the federal farm board together with his tenure of office, to the side discretion of the president, will be warmly debated. So will the unusual provisions as to dis篇章ments. The insurance features of the bill will also be assisted. In the senate a lively tight may be expected on the debenture plan, with all the practical advantage on the side of its foes. With the house against it and the president threatening a veto, a senate vote for the debenture plan would be a futile gesture. The big noise of President Hoover's special session of congress is to come sometime this week when the house begins what is expected to be an old fashioned tariff scrap and the senate votes on the Hoover farm program. SIX-HOUR DAY FOR RAILROAD MEN The 15,000 railroad men joining thanks of the unemployed are bringing to light another side of the current era of prosperity. It is the aim of four big brotherhoods and twenty-two railroad organizations to reduce this army of the men who are out of work. They propose a six-hour day, In 1927, the best year ever for railroads, less than 1,700,000 were employed while in 1920, the previous peak of history, 2,000,000 men were required. So there is no argument that something must be done to give these men work. It is the duty of society to help its men earn a living; Society cannot afford to turn so many thousands of trained workers into the world where they cannot find other work. The question which is to be considered, however, is whether the six-hour day is the only remedy, or the remedy at all, for the existing evil in the railroad industry. It would be necessary to do one of two things: raise transportation rates or lower the wage of the trainmen. The public will not stand for much of the first and the railroad man much of the latter. And this is what will come if the six-hour day becomes a reality. At present, the organized railroad men are the only ones who are giving the matter much attention. It is time for statesmen, straight forward, clear thinking ones, in this country to give this problem unbiased consideration. Today's Best Editorial The new rule which limits the amount of home work to be done by school children in New York is said to have evoked general approval, and HOME WORK we hasten to express our approval of it ioc. Indeed, we go further. We respectfully explain why home work is ever assigned at all. In the first place, with a proper use of buildings and hours, it would seem that an efficient program would make the work in the school easier than what work in the school itself, making their nightly chore unnecessary. In the second place, the small space in most city homes makes them more comfortable than any on the child but on his family. In days gone by, perhaps, practically everybody lived in a house that had several rooms, and in a place where he could retire with his arithmetic book and do his examples in pence. But in a New York apartment, where the space is quite narrow, he would have to the square inch, there is not ordinarily such a spare room, and to find a place where a child can study in pence is not difficult. Why subject a child to something that even a grown-up would find exceedingly one鸣? From 6 6clock on the human race until the days of course before it goes to bed. That is what it should do. For in these few hours it attains to such civilization as we know, so that he should learn to spend his leisure in a civilized manner too. —N. Y.World Campus Opinion --- Editor Daily Kansan: --- After having heard the address at the Honors Convocation, and being a member of the ninety per cent which are out of the bowed fold, I wonder what President desugar of the University is out of the percent of the percent of the universities? His address was presented to the first four rows of the auditorium, as he biggest 10 per cent of them. He made his statement that the best jobs were given these people; these favoured few and waitresses*3. What does he expect of the 90 percent? Are we to go out with a log broveer and have a get-to-gether suit? Or are we to get a business card and hide our heads under buckets? We then, since this 10 per cent are to have great seats in the world's work, are to get an inferior complexity. This can be achieved by spending a thousand of dollars to fit us for life. We came here to make something out of ourselves. A few of us have worked our way through our education and we can carry both activities and make grades. Some of us have not been able to hit quizzes, and have not been able to do the hundred and one thing they are doing, including melting the apple. Last of all, as is often the accession, perhaps we have had a good opportunity. We do not mean that we have not kept the confidence of the hundreds of fathers and mothers who have said they have just as good jobs, have just as much success, he just as good citizens, he just as good teachers, this percent of the University.

The law of nature as well as the law of man, the atitude of a state as well as the regulation of a college, is one way in which the common own way that violation of the law is followed inevitably by punishment. As long as a law is a law, whether just or unjust, fair or unfair, infringement or violation it is difficult to "kick against the pricks." If a regulation is inequitable, all that can be done is to influence the minority to persuade the faed to abide by the laid regulation. Removal of the human element from the enforcement of rules is necessary, since otherwise there would be no punishment; for mitigating circumstances can always be found. What we must recognize are that man-made rules are effective; only inadvised rules are accepted as a part of our environment.
