TUESDAY, APRIL 17, 1928 IT STILL EXISTS There are fewer punchboards run openly on the Hill now than there were a few weeks ago; but there are still some left. At the foot of the Hill are boards which are run openly, and slot machines, which, while protected by injunction from interference, are used as gambling devices rather than vending machines. On Oread avenue there are no boards which are in open evidence, or at least none was to be seen yesterday afternoon. It is to be hoped that they will remain inactive. The running of punchboards is poor business. It is always poor business to run in opposition to the law. It may be a good money maker (and punchboards undoubtedly are good money makers) but it will not pay in the end. One of the most valuable assets is a business man can have is the good will of his trade. The student who loses ten, fifteen, or twenty dollars on a puneboard, as many have done, is not likely to feel that he wishes to boost the man who got the money without giving anything in return. Nor is the confidence of the less fortunate public a thing to be accrued. Some significance may be in the rumor that the woffer阻击 against the anti-grabbing laws around the Hill has moved to be such a poor business man that he is about to lose his business. If the rumor proves to have foundation, perhaps others will take the hint. Freezing Kills Fruit in Kansas Area—Headline. Thank heaven there is one fruit that doesn't freeze—the dandelion. FINE DISTINCTIONS President Coolidge in his speech yesterday before the continental congress of the D. A. R. is quoted as saying, "It is desirable to keep the government unencumbered and clean, with an eye single to public service; we shall leave the conduct of our private business with the individual, where it belongs, and not undertake to unload it on the government." This is sound logic. Undoubtedly public business ought to be kept separate from private affairs. The recent scandals in all owl would never have come about if private interests had not tried to tamper with the government. The president, however, when he says that we shall leave the conduct of our private business to the individual, fails to make the distinction clear between public and private business. What is public? What is private? A definition of public is something that concern the welfare of the whole people. The president wishes to keep all such affairs separate from those that are private, that is, that concern only one individual, or a small group of citizens. But by the very nature of business organization today such fine distinctions between public and private cannot be made. A great corporation, like that of Henry Ford, affects the people of the United States more than many government agencies, which the president would call public. Many great government enterprises affect directly only n a small part of the people, yet they are public. The U. S. army is an example. It is time that we in the United States unit attempting to make fine distinctions between public and private, and make an almost effect to use the government in serving the interests of the whole people, no matter whether, in so doing, it touches co-operated business or not. THE CHARM OF THE OLD from the Atlantic seaboard come the news that the spring begin to Europe has started. It is probable that the number of Americans visiting the older continent will reach well into the million mark. They go no to see the advances made, to see the new methods of doing northwash things, but to see the old scenes, the old buildings, the old places which have witnessed the crusis of the most. The rich has an almost universal appeal. There is a charm, a strong influence, which old buildings possess in a subtle way, an attraction which the newer lack. Those who have seen Oxford and Cambridge tell us that their buildings have a strange dignity which is missing in these of the country. The newer buildings, it is true, seem much better planned; as to their construction, only time will tell. Let us hope that no more will be erected which will be tacitly ignored in the utopian descriptions of the beauties of the campus after 40 years of use. It is a pity that so many of our buildings are not made with an eye to the future, that their architecture, their plan, is not better fitted for long life. On this campus the older buildings lack the book of permanence and aged reverie which they should possess. Through inferior construction and poor lines they look doured and shabby, not like fine old architectures, but like broken mongrel structures in the sun. THE LAW OF THE LAWS Did you noise yesterday and today? The laws were noting more noise than mant. Surely spring is here to stay, for they are back to their last spring's pitch and their melodious voices float out on the gentle breeze with the bridge marched or some other ditty fitted to the occasion as students chance to desecrate Green hall by passing along in front of it. Do you know who suggested and drew up the plan for Hell Week regulations? Perhaps it might be arranged to have a tunnel dug from the mail box over to the steps leading down to the car tracks. If this were possible, then the necessity of passing before the critical eye of the embryonic lawyers would be avoided. Their fun will be spolled, but how many happy people there would be atop Mt. Oread! The laws, bless their hearts! There will never be a more informative ? The Pan-Hellenic conference drew it up and the student council passed in favor of that plan. And get the pachacamas claim this as one of their accomplishments of the past year.

MORE INTEREST IN ELECTIONS Before the election next November the people of the United States will have the figure and voice of the candidates through talky movies. During the campaign these men will be shown in action, and will be able to present their arguments in their own volumes. How far removed this is from the early days when people a comparatively short distance away did not For your persons in remote parts of the country have been kept in touch with the president and the executives through the newspapers and radio. Anyone interested could intomethere can read the previous even expect to see the president during his term of office. record of a prospective president, and after he is in the White House the press and other mediais keep the country informed about what is being done. And now, with this latest device which will enable the people to see the candidates and hear them announce first hand the things they stand for and will attempt to accomplish, everyone should take more interest in the elections. When the middle boy such possibilities of knowing A has such prominence of observing the man it will elect as president of the United States, it should see that it selects the best man.

Party politics with all of its hand-snapping tactics is with us this week. The party's leaders are on a diet and they couldn't help, are pulling out the old line. The Independent, fostering the natural realism that we like, is steaming steam roller tactics, are making a bid for a piece in the pie cake. And the average student stands like a food, velling on the sideline since he has been allowed to cook. A party system in an election of this kind is in an abolition. Two groups are trying to railroad tickets to stand on. Their platform are not exclusive. It won't break up the Pacifists, to work for better informatio- nism, but it will not support the Independents to advocate Sunday privacies at the library. But here we are being numbed full of the bank by the old soft can method. Let's have this campaign in the open. We need students who will best meet our expectations and most regardless of their party. We need more information about the individual candidates, about the things they know and believe in, about who holds or the organizations they are in. Come on with your fierce enthusiasm for the educators. Let's be intelligent—E. N. Why is it we hear everything about parties and nothing about the candidates? Are we such a bunch of black-blood that we don't know any of them? They are so blinded by fellow and a friend of a friend of mine? In this campaign to date there has been wholehearted dodging of the qualifications of individual men, women and kids. Candidates are packed with candidates who on their own wouldn't get to first base. They are there because they bribe voters or money to the ticket holders. The voters are by-products. If that isn't utterness, I don't know what is.

Campus politics now become more intellectual in the past five years. Now are elections won by pretty campaign emblems painted promotionalis on the sidewalks of the campus and city regions cannot be presented that way. But a telephone pole will carry campus news and it is hard to the shade "treas." However, as I said, I'm not gripping. What's a few shade trees between politicians? - G. C. Attend the Kansas Relays.
