FRIDAY, APRIL 5, 1929 The uprising in Mexico is becoming more and more interesting for the reason that it is a puzzle, and the ordinary person like brain teasers. The longer the revolution lasts the less is known of its real cause and probable outcome. The whole issue seems to binge upon the basic fact that the "outs" want is and the "ins" want to stay in but to many people, including the Mexicans themselves, it is only another revolution. Probably less is known about the war in Mexico than in the United States where it is being comfortably witnessed from the reviewing stand position. The Yanapi are the most uninterested as far as the purpose of the fight but the most interested in the fighting. The Yanapi just loves to fight and will blindly follow a leader they like. If the leader is a rebel one day and a Federal the next, it makes no difference to them as long as there is fighting to be done. The zane is more or less true of many Mexicans only in their case it is a matter of who pays the most money and feeds the heat. The rebel soldiers do not know what it is all about and are moved from place to place for no stated reasons. The Federal army is equally uninformed. The rebel does what they do for a few rations, a gun and a lot of promises. The OCCleggian has been running some snappy editorial wine-eras lately. Sure they're good. They were swiped from the Kauan. And credit lines on them are as scarse as good trails on January 2. HILL ORGANIZATIONS We need more and better organizations on the Hill! At present there is a dethrung of activities. Only a small number of students hold office as presidee of some wealthy group. Surely life would be much more full and complete if every student could sign announcements as a presiding officer. If this be a democracy, equal opportunities must be offered to all students. Let the stogain be, "Each student a president." The "Society for the Prevention of Too Many Activities" should organize and elect officers immediately. The "Eat and Grow Slim" club could alternate with the "Losse A Pound a Day" club in meeting at the cafeteria. It might be more simple to have each student select his own club name, elect himself all the officials, pay himself dues, call his own meetings, and fine himself for being late. Then the democratic goal of one office for each student would be easy to attain CURTIS PROTESTS Vice-President Curtis has asked Secretary Stimson for a reversal of the ruling of ex-Secretary Kellog, which places his sister, Mrs. Edward Everett Gann, below the rank of the wives of an ambassadors and ministers at official dinners. Mrs. Gann is to be his official hostess, Mr. Curtin anounced following his election. That he regards this as a very serious light is evident when he wounds resort to bringing facts of the case before the public and ask that the decision be reconsidered. The affair will doublehalf cause Curtis much trouble, and some have feelings before it is ended. To people outside the diplomatic circles it seems a foolish and trivial matter. Why Mr. Kellogg would discriminate against Mrs. Gann is a little hard to understand. Certainly there is no precedent for it, Mr. Curt's wife died three years ago, and his sister is the logical person to hold the place that she would have held as hostess for the vice-president. On these grounds Mr. Curt's objections can readily be understood. Secretary Stimson is placed in an embarrassing position also. He must either reverse the decision of Mr. Kellogg or refuse to reverse it and cause ill feeling between himself and the vice-president. If he does not reverse the decision the position Mrs. Gann will hold will be greatly reduced in dignity to that held by the preceding vice-presidents' hostesses. If all the poets who sing of spring were 'cool side by side' it would be a swell chance to kill them all off at one shot. ROOVER AND PROHIBITION Interest in the coming special session of Congress has been intensified by the sinking of the Canadian rum running ship, "I'm Alone" and the accusations that have been made against Representative Morgan, of Ohio. These two events coming at this time will in all probability cause President Hoover to show his hand as to just how he intends to carry out his promise of enforcement of the prohibition amendment. Regardless of whether Representative Morgan is guilty or not, an investigation should be made of the law permitting "freedom of the port," and a revision of it provided. If this matter of permitting congressmen to enter port without having their language inspected is not revised, now that it has been shown that the privatee has been abused, the American public will be justified in thinking that one plank of the Republican platform was made of rotten wood. Is it necessary for a person to go to England to study the weather? Aren't there enough varieties on the Hill? COAST GUARD DUTIES One of the manifold duties of the United States Const Guard which has not been given much publicity since immigration restrictions and prohibition brought in the smuggling problems is the work of the ice patrol in watching the icebergs which create a menace to shipping along about this time of the year. Maritime history is full of thrilling occurrences of the encounters with sea but it took the sinking of the Titanic with a loss of 1,500 lives to show the need of some sort of scout work to keep in check on the white monsters of the north. This work is carried on by the United States and is repaid by other nations for this protection in proportion to their ocean tonnage. The patrol begins in March when the bergs begin to reach the shipping lines and lasts until about June or longer if all danger has not used. The destruction and removal of derelicts is another part of the international safety work of the coast guard. These derelicts are almost as dangerous as the bergas as they generally pursue an erratic course. The usual method of dealing with them is to either tow them into some port, or, if that is impossible, to sink them. The Second International Conference on the Safety of Life at Sea which meets in June will probably make modifications in the service to keep pace with modern scientific developments. The Tongues of Ten Thousand Bees Are Measured for Scientific Experiment [SOURCE: NORTHWEST JOURNAL OF PEDIGREE SCIENCE] Baltimore—One of the first measurements of insects, comparable to the elaborate measurements made by anthropologists of members of the human race, has been undertaken by Dr. W. W. Alajouf of the zoo at the Smithsonian Institution. He conducted a search under Prof. Raymond Pearl of the John Hopkins University. Thousands of bees from Russia and the United States were examined during the investigation, which has shed interest light on problems of beekeeping in the U.S. Russian Survival "Inside Stuff" The anatomical feature to which Doctor Alapatov devoted the most attention in this large survey with the microscope was the tongue, tool of detection of microorganisms. people like to complain and make up their stories.

The use of this room between 8 and 8:30 has not seemed to warrant the expense of mounting service the late opening was delimiter. It may be well here to point out that even with the Periodical Room closed six attendants are necessary to help in the minimum of Library Service. Next week the room will be opened at 8 and a careful count of visitors made to determine if the early opening is justified. C. M. Baker, Director. I have been fortunate enough to have been given copies of your "Daily Kannan". The capers have been seen in the school library and a student a K. U, last summer and secondly because I am to a small degree a student of journalism this year. Editor Daily Kansas: Your editors have especially interested me and it is in answer to the one in the March fifteenth edition of *What I Wrote* that "I am writing this letter. I doubt that even Alfred E. Smith, the former illustrator of corporate cartoons, would have taken to the utilization of a monkey and his new hand cramp on the streets of the city. I wonder if you can really conceive that section of the city unless you have visited it? Overhead the elevated railroad goes over. It rides past some street with a wiperage in every turn of this headrail. The train is at stations the trains sweep to a stop and groan as the electric power is once more applied for it to continue One the street level one must picture hundredes of push carts living the streets. These carts sell everything from juncy dill pickles floating about in unassure vinegar to the latest amenities. Each push cart has attached to it an alarm vender. Usually an ancient Russian type and his wife run the stand to found that bees' tongues increase in length as one travels south, until in North America they corner of European Russian, are found the longest-tongued bees now known to entomology. In the United States no such geographical distribution held by bees is known; it is a fact that all honey bees in this country are species introduced from Europe within the last two or three centuries, and that these bees keeping has fostered interbreeding with bees from all parts of the country. Racial characteristics cannot be as fixed with indigenous bees bred some locality for hundreds of years. Before the war the Caucasian bees were the subject of special investigation on the estates of one of the members of the royal family of Russia, as well as an officer in charge show, said Doctor Aclozim, that choops of a red clover, a plant that carries its nectar too deep down in the blossoms for most bees, were much heavier in fields where they were nesting, and bees than where they were absent. Another point emphasized by Doctor Alpottay was the difference in length of worker bees of different species. Those collecting pollen, for instance had shorter tongues then those collecting nectar. Slight as the present difference in size, it added, it shows "a promising possibility for systematic investigation of pollen capture and worker bees of different plants. The preference of cer gather. In gutter tones they tone up to prospective buyers their special bargains for the day. Or perhaps they tone up to be heard. Strangers may hasten to purchase tones. It is never necessary to be alarmed. This only means that someone has about decided to make a purse out of tones, or be made. Interfaced with this noise one may hour traille carrum bumping through the streets. A fire engine would have to drive these speed through the streets with bell ringing and sirens screeching. There is still another level. That is how the surface we have on the street surfaces for us are made of note that muniway can be it is necessary to ride on them.

THE LOYAL FEW In any organization the work of the group as a whole depends on the interest of a few loyal members. We must be able to balance ability and activity become the lot of the one who has been elected leader of the group, Seldom, if ever, will accept such responsibility or operation of all the other members. Usually only two or three at the most are willing to take upon themselves some share of the work to be held. This laggards feel that they are merely their organization a favor to receive, and occasionally. Frequently they are club membership munica, eager to join the organization for the sake of discipline or for the moment of pass and badges. Their interest in any organization to which they belong is not limited to those they are seeking admittances to it, but if they out completely after they receive first payment on their initiation fee. It is such as these, persons wanting all the honors without making efforts to make themselves worthy of such honor, that make life unimpactful for them.

As Others See It A SENSIBLE SOLUTION OF THE MEXICAN PROBLEM Arkansas City Traveler Like a thunderbolt out of the blue, there comes to us a solution of the Mexican problem. Mexico and several countries, it will be recalled, already have been unhooked from the South American continent by the Panaman canal. Obviously the sensible thing is to stick our hands off from the United States, to it and its annoying southern neighbors out to the middle of the Pacific ocean and sink the whole works.
