Clerk Says Poll Tax Has No Relation to Right to Vote
Department of Politic Science Will Maintain Information Booth for Students
A large number of University students, eligible to vote in the elections are under the false impression that law enforcement is asserted merely to the voters of Lawrence, it was learned today. The poll tax, according to Floyd Lawrence, city attorney for Lawrence, is assessed in fact it is specifically a road tax which is assessed to every male resident of Kansas from the ages of 21 or younger regardless of whether he votes or not.
Previously it was believed by many students that this tax is collected from absentee voters by record kept in a student's file. However the city clerk explained that no record was kept of absentee voters, and the poll tax was collected by a house to house cavities in the spring connection with voting whatsoever.
Students who have reached voting age but are not certain as to whether they can cast a vote are urged by the political authorities to go to the polls. Teachers in political science will maintain an information booth for the purpose of instructing new and absentee voters. "Those in doubt about any point in voting should clean up their problem before losing," an official said, too.
Absence voters who do not know their local and district candidates or their precinct and ward are asked to vote the state and national ticket. In many cases where the student does not know his home address, he is made by the officials of Lawrence to have the person's ballot accepted in his county.
A complete analysis of the location of wards and precincts and the correct procedure for voting will appear in Sunday Kansan.

Pouring Rain Fails to Keep Music Patrons Away
By Catherine Hannen
The piano concert given by Owen Gabrielabitews Thursday evening in the University Auditorium, was attended by nearly 1600 persons, who came despite a pouring rain. The concert was held on the 8th annual concert course.
The adverse weather did not keep music pattern from Tupelo and Kansas City. A couple of weeks ago the Last night's concert is the only one Gablowschott will give in the Middle States.
Encores followed each group of selections presented by the pianist, and the audience showed its appreciation for the performances. Following the Beethoven sonatas in c minor, Gabriel-lowisch pli-ed a Gavette by Glycke-Brahms. The second group, five selections from the 1804-1807 hundredth anniversary of Franz Schubert's death. It was followed by an encore, Schubert's Impromptus in Guitar. The Rain 'the Precipice' from Schubert seemed an especially appropriate number in view of the weather conditions. The last encore was Rubinstein's Impromptu in A minor, and Chopin's Ballade in G-minor were the high points of the evening, and the two selections most enjoyed by the audiences. The modern selections do not seem to please so much as the greater classical part of the program.

Stronger Airships to Be Next Step in Conquest of Air
Experts Hold Safer Ocean Travel to Result From Graf Flight
Friedrichkafen, Nov. 2. —(UP) — Stronger and faster airships, man's next step in the conquest of the air, will make ocean crossings safer. Scientists have experts throughout Germany today indicated this would be an immediate development as a result of the Grafnik's round trip across the Atlantic.
Dr. Hugo Eckelen, commander of the Graf Zeppelin, took the great airship over the southern and northern steamer lanes of the Atlantic under adverse conditions that obviously classify the weaknesses and strength of the dirigible.
Airship Endured Hardships
Subjected to the delays of storm and accident that befall ships on the Irish coast, this approach brought to German commercial aviation invaluable practical facts for the future.
The Graf Zeppelin's commander, speaking at the banquet here in his honor, said the Atlantic had not been conquered by his airship. The dirichlet stayed about and forced down, flying as low as飞翔 motors over high seas.
Stronger and Faster Motors Needed "It will be necessary to run airships with stronger motors at higher speed," he said.
Doctor Schutte, director of the scientific society for aeronautics, was enthusiastic about the Graf Zeppelin's mission to have a degree of stability that is necessary in trans-Atlantic flights. It demonstrated its capacity as a passenger carrier and also its value for use on scientific expeditions." Doctor Schutte
Voicing the sentiment of Spain, whose interest in dirigible activities has been marked, Espinosa de los Monteros, the Spanish ambassador, said Almada had proved the ability to be the proxet of aircraft for ocean飞船.
