THE UNION
Today it stands there, unfinished.
Is it worth completing? The Union is a large project on our campus and one that stands out plainly as work begun but not done. Should we finish the Union?
Thousands of dollars have already been put into the Union. They are not wasted. Each day a few more students visit the living rooms, the only part of the Union now completed other than the cafeteria. Each week, more students form the "Union" build. The thousands already spent have not been wasted.
But the part now complete is only a minor part of the entire building as planned. The banquet hall is not finished, the activity rooms are not completed, and there are as yet no sleeping rooms for alumni and parents when they come to visit the campus.
A completed Union will be a most valuable asset to the University. It will afford a recreation center; it will be almost like a home. When it is finished we shall hardly able to believe that we ever got along without it. This is not speculation; it has been proved at other universities with Unions.
"Wife Sobs Hey Gratitude,"—head line.
Should we finish the Union? Um,
don't doubt, we should, and turn a
building which is being used more and
more each day into a most valuable
campus asset. It has been started; it
should be finished.
AN IMPORTANT WEEK
Well, conedee that. Mrs. Sinchin should be weeping but the cause as given above seems rather inappropriate.
This week is a big one for the leading Republican candidates' workers. Approximately one-fourth of the delegates to the Kansas City G, O, P convention will be selected in the next five days.
Three important battles will be fought, in Ohio, Massachusetts, and Pennsylvania, respectively. In Oklahoma and Arizona the anti-Hover forces are expected to win, while in Michigan and Nevada, the commerce secretary is expected to win.
However has a decisive fight ahead of him in Ohio. Since the death of Senator Wash, he has little to gain and a whole lot to lose, unless he should do the unexpected and gain a large majority.
Our own favorite son may pick up a few votes in Oklahoma or Arizona this week. The Kansan and Lawdens are both trying to eich a few more votes, and these states may go either way.
When this week is ended, there may be no real reason for holding the convention. Such should be the case if Hower can swing enough votes to coach the nomination. He is working hard for this chance, but the votes will probably be spread around so that the field will still be about even.
--in the third column of the Kansas City Times this morning, which is about a murder, and which is hounded "He talked about my women folks,"
The prohibition agents might not be altogether disappointed if they attempted to clean out some liquor lurks in Kannas cities other than Wichita.
In the presentation of a quiz recently the professor in charge requested members of the class to suggest questions suitable for discussion. Two such questions were placed before the class.
To some persons it may seem that such an idea is useless and impractical. Surely, they argue, the instructor with much academic training is capable of judging the important questions involved in the discussion of their specialized work. In many cases this assumption may prove to be somewhat incorrect, however. The instructor has done much specialized research in his own particular field. To him the necessarily important, though perhaps elemental, topics may be somewhat dimmed through the perspective of higher attainment. He may have forgotten the struggles and problems he encountered in his earlier work.
The correct student is working on a plane that was covered by his instructor, perhaps, years before. His difficulties are just as real to him as the more complex ones that the teacher himself may often find be confronted.
Surely the student, who has seriously thought through his complexity, ein question his classmates in a manner that is pertinent and search ing.
No one becomes truly educated until less he takes an active part in the acquisition of this knowledge.
After seeing just how the movies are made yesterday afternoon, we wonder at the fact that more were not absent from their classes today. One must do a little packing before he starts for Hollywood.
CALVIN, THE HUMORIST
The wittyness of Calvin Coolidge, have at last been collected and published by the Boston Herald. This monumental work will be read with avidity by the American public; the Kansan predicts that it will be among the best sellers in the fiction field during the next year.
The press has told the public at what hour, minute, and second the President arrives, whether his breakfast cakes were well browned or not, how long he rode his electric hobby horse, and other important state events. But never before has any writer delved into the mysteries of the supernatural and brought forth the good old fashioned American humor of Silent Cal.
S seriously, however, it is hard to understand how the entering press of the country has misled the country for so long. The public has been led to believe that Mr. Coolidge is a tadkier, economical New Englander, and now we find that he is a real American Historist.
We hope that none of those Balsheviet publications like the Nation or the New Republic get hold of the fact that Mr. Cooleidge has deserved the public for so long a time. They might accuse him of misfiance in office.

The news source for Kuwait is reporters, I have upon authority, but I do not know who wrote it. I gave information for plans for the Union. Indeed this is unfortunate, for with this knowledge before the invasion we are in danger of another matter to gain their sympathy. It has not been "misminformation," as a headline in last night's inserts says.

Sinclair Lewis told the press yesterday that he would marry Dorothy Thompson. It seems that Mr. Lewis is a little late in finding out about the glad news; friends announced a week ago that the marriage would take place.
During the past few weeks I have been interested in the attempts of the Memorial Union Committee to arouse interest in the completion of the Union Building. It seems rather unfortunate that this organized informing effort was not for which a Union is instituted could not have been started in long time ago. Perlans it would not have been necessary for the Committee to resort to the two ingestion items of well planned propaganda.
Campus Opinion
There has been no high-pressure request for pledges so far during the present campaign for funds. It is to be hoped that coercive methods used during the war have not been intentionally avoided. The hysteria of the World War has

I was rather surprised to learn that so many of the past Senior Chances had raised money for the Union. The chime clock, indeed, looked very well in the second floor hall of Watson library.
Yes, the Union has a purpose at Kansas. It should be finished. But it does seem rather foolish for the Union Memorial Committee to hope that students will contribute to this or to any cases of which they know little and of which information has been used (or particularly) news sources.
The Chancellor has expressed the wish that the Union be finished only when the students of the University are ready to work and be done. I wonder if this demand has made 7? Many students would contribute, and will contribute in the future to the University with the Union idea. Surely the good will of those people is worth seeking. The students who want them to fulfill their duties is timely and that the responses will be generous. Let us hope that the Committee of One Hundred will find a suitable and uncomplicated type of necessary—H. R. P.

Our Flood Relief Farce
City Council Ketterer Fence
Federal flood relief begins to have the appearance of the greatest congressional farce of the decade—a force indicators not tragl. The American people are having demonstrated to them in a stalking way the ex-exporting inability of their governments to do a piece of work quickly, efficiently, or within the limitations of politics.
Slightly more than a year ago there began one of the most disastrous deaths in the history of the nation, a baby named Melissa because apparent, even before the awering yellow death of the Missouri governor to begin to say with an almost undoled voice that here was a condition which here was no matter how hard Here was a matter into which politics must not enter. The urgency of food relief was so great that special舱内
Today, more than a year after the beginning of the Mismississippi catastrophe, a flood relief program is more chimerical than ever. It is a series of wringings, congress is poised on the brink of passing a bill which the administration damned even before it left the committee. The governor is trying to make a pork barrel out of flood relief; the West accuses the East of being local minded. And the President, adding his vote to the bill, says that the governor will come the phygthylogy of the lumber corporations and that the government is about to be made the victim of the greatest steal of the country. Mr. Obama vows to vault the hill, and it is extremely
Whether the President's charges are grounded in fact is a matter of conjecture, but probably they are. Not out for reflection, he has the only advice he can give: don't trust him and truth. And everyone knows, of course, that there are just enough crooks and simplexes in congress to turn even a great emergency into this kind of grab-bag.
much is certain: We stand at the threshold of another flood season without even having started on a relief program. And it is probable that yet another summer will pass without making a beginning.
But whatever the truth may be, wherever the trouble may lie, this
A democracy, we Americans are convinced, is fundamentally right—that we should name it. But sometimes, it must be admitted, its blinderning inflicts us.
