VOICES ACROSS THE SEA
The greetings exchanged between President Coolidge and King Alfonso of Spain have sounded like more diplomatic courtesy, but one remark was of a genuinely practical character.
"I believe it to be true," said the President, "that when two men can talk together, the danger of any serious disagreement is unmeasurably lessened, and that what is true of individuals is true of nations. The national telephone, therefore which carries the warmth and the friendliness of the human voice, will always correct what might be misinterpreted in the written word.
Improving means of communication must be recognized as promoting better understanding and more peaceful relations. The spoken word possesses great advantage over the written. It permits of more intimate human communication. Things can always be said that can not be written.
INTERNATIONAL BIGAMY
The President made a significant point in his reference to the potentialities of the international telephone in keeping nations as well as individuals in closer and friendlier contract. It is hoped that his observations prove prophetic.
INTERNATIONAL POLISH authorities assert that 10,000 men have emigrated to America in the past few years, leaving their wives and children in Poland. A majority of these are believed to have remarried this country. Taking a majority at 6,000, there are 6,000 bigamists of Polish nationality alone residing here, and if this almost unbelievable fact is true, will not the proportion be much the same for immigrants from many other countries of Europe?
We can take one step toward correcting this condition by revising our immigration laws so that families will not have to be separated under the percentage rule. We dare not respect the crime of Acadia. Even when it is always possible for families to enter America together, there will be many cases in which the father will come ahead to earn the money necessary for passage of the others. It is out duty to keep track of these fathers and encourage them in every way to attain their goal. It is our duty to see that reverses or natural weakness does not lead them to break the law of society and of our nation. We are not through when we give them the opportunities of America; we must accept them as a responsibility.
WILL K. U.VOTE?
A preliminary survey of the absentee vote represented in the student body of the University of Kansas shows 1,249 men and 545 women of voting age. Of this number, 1,518 are from Kansas. This survey was conducted under the direction of Professor F. H. Gulid of the department of political science.
Most of these students of voting age will have their first opportunity to vote in the coming election, Nov. 6. Because of the presidential campaign
this fall, it would seem that students would be eager to exercise their right of ballet. University people should show permave more active interest in politics than many other groups. Not only is young blood needed in our politics but also attempted conscientious analysis by the student is essential to raise political standards.
The point to be driven home is that all eligible voters including students of the proper age should not fall to the polls at election time. The political organizations on the Hill probably will assist in urging all absentee votes to cast their ballots. The right of suffrage is more than a privilege; it is an obligation.
WELCOME. JOURNALISTS
The Daily Kansan, in behalf of the University of Kansas and its department of journalism, wishes to extend a hearty welcome to the delegates of the annual high school newspaper conference, in session today and to marrow. The students of Journalism in the University are glad to entertain the visiting high school editors, business managers and teachers. It is our hope that the conference will prove so worthwhile that those in attendance will be glad to have been here.
Young journalists from over the state will find this conference a valuable experience, but it is also beneficial to the college journalists who are their hosts. The meeting draws the groups together because of a certain bond—the bond that is found in the lure of the typewriter, the pastie, the copy-desk, the blue pen the thrill of seeing one's own articles in print. Each one, no doubt, has hopes of making his mark in the newspaper world.
The K. U. Press club, which has taken care of many of the arrangements of the conference, the various other journalistic organizations, the administration and faculty members who are co-operating in every way—all say "Welcome!" in their most cordial tone.
LEARN THEM NOW
That K. U. students are not well acquainted with their songs and yells was clearly shown at the Grinmell football game as well as by the statements of several individuals who have been unable to find anyone that knew the exact words. Because of this, the jep organizations have arranged a song fest next Tuesday night at which every student will have a chance to learn the words and tunes. It is essential to lively, energetic pop that those in the cheering sections be well acquainted with words, actions and tunes that go with each song or yell. Come out Tuesday night and learn the yells well, so you can have an active part in the cheering at the next home game.
Our desires are satisfied at last. We have always enjoyed going through a bunch of leaves and kicking them in all directions. Now comes the advice that leaves smother the grass and should not be left on the lawns.
A 98-year-old woman in Berlin, thought to be dead, horrified her mourners by arising just as the coffin was about to be closed. Wonder how many vaudeville contracts she has refused by this time.
A Wisconsin editor has charged Smith, saying, "He was intoxicated with his own verbosity." We always thought one couldn't be a politician unless he had that quality.
Since Princeton students have been forbidden to use motor cars, bicycles have become quite popular there. There are some excellent places on the K. U. campus to park a bicycle.

"Inside Stuff"
"Is it too late to get a story in the paper today?"
That question has been heard over K, U, 25 from as early as 8 a.m., when the printers are on the job yet, to as late as 4:30 p. m., when the news boys are on the street with the paper.
Normally, local news cannot be handed later than 2 p. m., the Kansan's press start at 3:09 p. m., and of course the broadcasts are often canned be used after that time.
As Others See It
--churches doubtless will be relieved by this sanction of a practice they have been-indulging in all their lives at the stake. The evidence of their consciences have been unnecessarily troubled by a misunderstanding of the Third commandment of the whole year.
THE DUTY OF THE CANDIDATE It is admitted that the respective campaign managers of the two major political parties are not satisfied with the amount of oratory furnished and the level of experience of the Mrs. and Mr. Heover. They beg those candidates to make more speeches and more appearances in various cities, giving out interviews and thoughtfully personal statements in the interval.
What Mr. Hoover has said in response to such appeals is not in the record, but Governor Smith's chief counsel, Mark Wheatley. The American people, he said, did not care to be talked to death by candidates. Consequently they were not clamoring for frequent repetition of clear and definite statements on the issue.
A church of England vicar approves of "nild swearing" as a means of relieving the emotions. A good many members of not only his but other
This is true. Yet the party managers are not alone in desiring more appearances and more informal expressions of views by the candidates, because they feel with regard to the number and spacing of elaborate speeches in round enough. When candidates have covered the important issues, have made proper explanations of obscure points, have explained their positions in press in first, they have not all reasonable demands so far as volume of oratory is concerned. But the voters are interested in the personal equations, in the intellectual and moral relations, in the political action and resistance audience and speaker.
The supporters of Governor Smith have advised him to show himself and give a taste of his quality to as many audiences as possible. Friends and supporters of Mr. Hoover are saying frankly that his speeches are too abstract and less persuasive than his personality is permitted to chime through them. Elbert Sedwick, editor of the Atlantic Monthly, complains of "the one-begged campaign" and charges Mr. Hoover with excessive modesty and unwise self-pressure. "It is because of Smith that you vote at all," he says, meaning that Smith is the only clear figure in his profession of leadership is personality", and Mr. Hoover's personality has yet "to come up through the smother".
There is a golden mean in the wearing work of campaigning. Candidates for high office should neither weary the electorate by empty and ill-advised votes nor keep themselves too much out of the picture.-Chicago Daily News.
GENTLEMANLY "DAMNS"
relief with whom we learned about the name of the Lord their God warned against taking the name of the Lord their God in vain in connection with what would now be satirical catchwords. When they appealed to Yahweh they were to carry out the undertakings entered into his in command and approval. This prohibition was not primarily intended to cover the common and garden species of "waters" which draw the names of the delity to fill gaps in one's conversation vocabularie. A "godless" water is more often worse than the general run of present day slang.
Staying "tui, tui," when one feels the "asking 'dainn'" will not clear the emotion attained in question ("you know?"). The English language contains a scale of less or more adjective-relative adequacy to the expression of the whole range.
Addiction to sling, sacred or proline, convicts one of intellectual inviolence and indifference to good tastes. All the vicars in England cannot give "dimn" the odor of good image as long as so many are guilty. Also Anglo-Saxon word, as the eye is a by a misplaced *omma* in a first edition.

WANTED-VILLAINS
Where are the dramatists, novelists and scenario makers going to find their villains? The British are greeting just now because young Rostand of Paris, puts some English villain into his play, "Napoleon IV." The Japanese present the Occidental habit of detecting the sons of Nippon in simulator and in actor. The American is an angry Latin-American makes bitter protest against the North American filmmakers. He insists they—
picture us as they wish to foreign nations, and to the worthy citizen of the United States of North America a Latin-American is almost always a victim and a Mexican is a seconded.
There is truth in his protest. But what are the scenario villains to do? The supply of villains runs low. There are not enough available to go round. The abnormal sentiment of both Big and Little Peoples since the war makes choice of a villain a deliberate matter. The Russian has indulged in assaulting the Germans grow all right for a while, but the world is fed on war-mad over-war wars. Italian villains are out of fashion and, anyway, it would be just like Mussolini to object. French villains are hardly satisfactory. Then, too the French have grown lonely.

COINED NAMES
Shortly after the motion pictures moved out of the infant chap their public begin calling them movies and so they remain today. The talking picture, a sort of photographic attachment to the television. The New Yorker suggests that as "a radio-television play has been broadcast successfully, we must find a shorter and narrow word for the thing. Perbana arvie o, wore still, a mooko," Radio television is distressed from the public's two sides both sight and sound received over the radio. Obviously it not a movie because it deprives persons rather than pictures of them. Radio-television is too long a term for a harrying world to use, so another word for be coined and unless the public takes to the task of presenting the mooko it must put together some word to title, rant, ravish, tradition or something else. Commerce has gone far in the business of word coling. Many commercial words are the combination of a few letters taken from firm names or the initials of famous people; the could be given of the manner which Americans have coded words in order to shorten the number they have to use. However, these combinations have had nothing to do with conversation. It remains as wary as it ever was.
