THE WEEK The Senate entered into debate over the Kellogg treaty outwelling war, pushing the bill about of the cruiser appropriation bill; and the proposed conciliation over the Bolivia-Paraguay boundary disputes received a set back because of the failure of Bolivia to authorize its signing and the reluctance of Argentina to take part in the investigation by the Pan-American conference. S. Parker Gilbert, agent general for reparations payments, reported that Germany is now on a stable basis to pay its debt while Costa Rica was enthusiastic over the possibility of building a second isthmus canal.

Congress is confronted this session with the extraordinary difficulty and obliteration situation of having before it two measures, conflicting in spirit, yet both urgently in need of enactment. SINCERITY IN WASHINGTON SUNDAY, JANUARY 6. 1929 The Kellogg multilateral treaty renouncing war is being energetically pushed by certain groups and should be enacted because it was proposed by our own Secretary of State. Our refusal of it would almost constitute a breach of faith with the other signatories. The so-called "cruiser bill" on the other hand, is urged by President Coolidge and its enactment is urged by practical policy. To build more cruisers and at the same time agree never to resort to war are diametrically opposite actions. Both measures, however, will probably be enacted, for America has finally come to realize that Europe laughes hugely to herself at Uncle Sam's efforts to promote World peace. England and France were caught in embarrassingly insincere communications in connection with the disarmament conference last summer, United States is now coming to the realization that not only England, but Japan as well, chuckled in gage over the diplomatic victories scored by these nations in the famous 5-3 ratio of the Washington Disarmment Conference two years ago. The Kellogg pact was a diplomatic move which saved our Secretary of State from an embarrassing alliances. It should be enacted. But Uncle Sam cannot fall behind in defense armaments in the face of lack of sincerity encountered in the past. The cruiser bill will also be enacted. SNOW SLACKERS The usual number of persons who cannot or will not have the snow removed from their walks are still among those present. It seems that regardless of the fact that snow has been scarred in Kansas this year, there are plenty of individuals who are too worn out to shovel off the snow. It is barely possible that some kind hearted student might be induced to do the manual labor for a paltry sum. Walking is possible the first day of such a snow storm as we have had this week, but by the time unhoyed walks have been trampled and the snow nudled and frozen, traveling in safety becomes a real art. For a number of reasons one hones to call the attention of proper authorities in the case of adult offenders it seems the last resort of long tried patience. CORN STALK PAPER Newspapers may be printed on corn stalks in the future, that is, on paper made from corn stalks. The Pririe Farmer published recently in Chicago, an issue using this paper for the first time. The experiment was made possible after years of research work in Europe and America. The paper is said to be heavier, somewhat stiffer and more transparent than the news print now generally used. The use of corn stalks in the manufacture of paper is significant. Timber is rapidly vanishing, making it harder to obtain chiep wood pulp. On the other hand, corn stalks are a waste product of agriculture. On many farms the stalks are left on the ground all winter and afford an excellent habitat for many destructive insects, particularly the European corn borer. If farmers could be assured of compensation for their efforts, they would earnly gather the stalks and thereby aid themselves doubly. The mills for the manufacture of the corn stalk product would necessarily be located in the corn belt section. As this would be some distance from the centers of heavy population, the rural population would be added by the additional work in the slack winter season. Corn will probably continue to be raised in large quantities and the supply of material amounts ample for future needs. It is not probable that the use of corn stalk paper will ever entirely supplement the use of wood pulp, but it is a wise measure to have a satisfactory substitute for the already decreasing woodburn supply. Today's Best Editorial LOCARNO AND LUGANO The Foreign Minister of Germany, France and Great Britain are gathered at Lugano, Ottensely they hold the opening ceremony of the leagues, the innumerable items on the December agenda of the Council of the League of Nations. Actually, all of them are the same importance, for apart from the proceedings of the Council, Herr Stresemann is friendly to St. Austen amBERLIN and St. Austen amBERLIN, the problem of the evacuation of the Rhineland, and the Rhineland is one of Europe's most disturbing stability. The occupation of the Rhineland has caused as many words — suave words and helpless words — as any language, because Versailles Treaty, but the solution cannot be far off. These three wars, far from being insignificant, and Sir Austen, are today in fundamental agreement. Each one, with qualifications which should not much exceed the present situation, have lately expressed the view that evacuation is desirable for the advancement of European friendships and strengthening of European industry. M. Briand, waiving the juridical question, explains that a combination of circumstances should make evacuation possible for his course, to the French thesis that evacuation and an agreement upon reparations should accompany each Sir Austen, disagreeing with Herr Streemann over the legal point, believed it to be hire statesmanship to his nation territory from foreign occupation. Lungo is but a few short miles over the hills from Locarno, and if the spirit of Locarno is equally near at hand, it should not be difficult for Germany, France and Great Britain to understand fundamental agreement in practice. Herr Streissman argues that Germany, an equal on the League Council of the United States, has met every obligation as it has been imposed upon her, and therefore she must have done so. Christian Science Monitor Three-Handed Astronomers Needed for Perfect Photos of Astral Bodies Paris, Jan. 5.—Any details of heavenly objects that can be seen with modern astronomical telescopes also can be photographed, but the astronomer really should have three hands to do it with. However, since no race of three-handed astronomers has yet been evolved, he can use his tips in place of two or one. Richard Moyer is a professor who has been working at the Paris Observatory for several years. In a report that has just been made to the Royal Astronomical Society of Canada, Professor Richey describes his recent work, which points the way to astronomical photographs magnified thousands of diameters. He began his work at the University of Chicago's Yerkes Observatory, cousin and mentor of Robert Levin, the world's largest telescope, where he made the great 100-inch mirror of the world's largest telescope. "Inside Stuff" 10 11 12 13 14 "The Editor" is still an individual despite all the walks that have been walked in high brow magazines about the passing of personal journalism. Seriously a day passes that the Kanan's phone does not jangle and some anxious voice inquire for "The Editor." Awesomely certain these voices are the voices of Mr. Brennan to the wire "the personage" himself. He settles the fate of the world on the editorial page, hands out the depo on the sport page, sets the type, turns the camera for the press, and kicks out stray dogs that wander into the newsroom. But, sad to say, the "perSONAGE" no longer exists, on the larger papers at least; and although the Kannan would not classify as a larger paper, he still makes an effort lishing a paper and attending classes make a large staff necessary. There are many editors who have numerous duties, so if you explain your business to the person who answers the phone or meets with a proper person with the boat delay. Our Contemporaries Minnesota Daily "Inside Stuff" PEDAGOGUES --he said, to photograph the general form of details on the moon as small as 100 feet in diameter, or on Mars as small as 2.8 miles in diameter. Such a telescope would be able to view the moon, but while 14,500 diameters could be applied to extended objects, like nebulae, the moon and planets." These are but a few of the factors of an instructors fate which might be in explanation of his conduct. He must also have occasioned occasional splurges are his only bright spots in an otherwise rather meaningless existence, and ought to be aware that they are not be thought, that only when they themselves are victimized by the asinine system that extols beauty and accolades to the extent of disobedientities, that they will understand. He gets his M. A. and is assigned to teach, not literature, or beauty, or the lessons thereof, but composition he does. He is rather puzzled, but game. He wade through the slough of composition. He protests. He is told to gain deserves for his actions—through the prescriptions and articles and punctuation again—but never in his beloved literature. If he ever reaches his goal, his wish, he will be disappointed by board. Or if he gets stuck in the slough of punctuation and forms of speech, he hardly ever gets a chance to talk about his god. Small wonder that he can mention his literature when he can mention his literature he grows dreamy over it. Small wonder that he should become wifty with his readers. No nonsexual hierarchy frustrates. What is the fate of an English instructor anyway? He starts out on his collegiate career inspired with the service of a professor, the precitation of it. The unwary surges within his heart degree that he shall perform his lot to mankind in the services of the Lord. He generally learns science through great labor he gets a degree. He does graduate work in which he becomes aware in rather a puzzled way that he is able to do what he needs of investigation which tend to be hard. Instead of his beloved literature, he is writing histories of the world and of science, the ration, and the rest of the stock in trade of the English researchers. He comes up for an advanced degree through a wester of punctuation and commas, and the Literature man takes a back seat. But the classes have judged harshly, it seems to us. There are teachers who are abusive laughches in search of beauty. Many factors of the poor instructor but in life have been disdainful to study. It is small wonder when one of those rare moments for true exposure occurs to an instructor that he should take advantage of it. Although he has devolved his life to what he thought he should be, he has lost the mastery of literature, our hopeless system of educational values has been taken over. Comments have been made on certain habits of which English instructors have been accused. It is charged that the midst of lectures to grow more eyed and dreary over some bit of poetry, some phrase of prose. It has been further charged that those instructors have often followed a way, uncalled for, and meaningless. Plans for "private employment" require the employee to work in the strict sense of the term. A man of his conspicuous personality will find it difficult to offuse himself from the situation. + The difficulty in securing satisfactory photographs of fine details on heavenly beaches, like the moon, arises because there is no bottom of a ocean of air. Even on top of the highest mountain, there is a large mass of atmosphere, in which the sun casts its rays onto the telescope and the sky. When relatively still, there are changing currents which bend a ray of light from the heavens first one way and then another. In the telescope, these motions are greatly magnified. Professor Richely told of his observations of the moon Yerkes Observatory. On night that were unusually favorable, he observed the moon's brightness and power. They were very sharply defined and appeared quite still, but when he put in a ring container on the moon, they became reference lines appeared in the eyepiece also, he saw that the craters formed on the moon's surface reaction. Without the cross-hairs, the eye unconciously followed the motions and they appeared still. He was able to observe the details of the detail constantly changed. "At the best instances," said Professor Ritchey, "the exquisitely small details come out sharply and distinct. The images are so tight that they comprise a second, sometimes for six or seven tenths of a second, solldon for a full second. The time between them is less than one second from one to four seconds. Perhaps the most remarkable effect was that of the mind of the observer, keenly aware of everything, blinded at the most favorable instants, disregards or even forgets the least favourable moments between them. It is hard to observe all of these phenomena that it can realised that the instants of first definition occur only once a fourth of the total elapsed time." It is to take care of this last effect that the third hand is needed. By using a very light placeholder that is often held over or very slightly, the motions of the image can be followed. One hand is required for each direction. In general, the first hand can stop the exposure during all but the most favorable moments, and Professor Ritchie suggests that this work is conveniently operated with the hands. As adjustments should be made many times a second, Professor Ritchie, constructed a practice machine, giving the effects artificially. With this he was able to make as much as possible on an hour at least. At least an hour a day should be devoted to practice with such a machine by the astronomer, he said. "Using such refinements on a telescope of 17 feet aperture, about the size of the new one recently announced at NASA, it would be possible, of Technology, it would be possible, As Others See It --municipal enterprise and the alertness of Yale professors, joins in the distinction of discovering and preserving artifacts that roamed the valley 120 million years ago.

A THOUSAND DOLLARS A DAY A story in recent news told of a man who had established an estate, and whose income is thereby abruptly advanced from $18 a week to $1600 a day. As it is but natural, numbers of people almost as many as the property owner intend to do with all this money and what sort of difference it will make in his life. The first thing he did in response was to sign on to the city editor who so often had indicated that his services might me dispensed with any monies not earned from his hat, which all cub reporters wear, at an even more sanguinary angle and went out of the local room his own full of this, of course, is sheer construct But what a later account of the matter does tell us is that he has decided to spend five years in Africa to learn about those far places, strange peoples and curious beings that every young man burns to behold, even though he may have been or is a cub reporter. But the young man, who will take it, however happily, for he has chosen as his companion the curator of Santa Barbara museum. The young man really seems, on this eve of Christmas, more wealthy, since his first imprint is to add to the knowledge of the world. To visit the little known places of earth, and to map them, to bring back sceneries from their classification and study, is really to play the benefactor of muckkin. For you will realize that he might—we only mention in this passing—have a different means of expedition. It will be long and long before, if ever, the wealth of the world is sufficient for all. There shall there be rich nor poor. Indeed, it has often been said that this is the most fantastic dreams of dreams, but no one should year or so would suffer for the acquisitive ones to restore the old disposition of material possession—such a thing not which But pending this Utopian day, and refusing to concede that it may not rest somewhere else, should those young men who inherit wealth, or older men who have wealth, or older men who have wealth.

The three new tunnels have been worked over by Prof. Malem Thorpe and other memoirists and the two previous unknown sequences, called the anchisaurips and the triconiphes, were discovered on the rock than any of the prints discovered in Massachusetts, a fact suggesting the possibility of reward for research in this section of the valley.
