The issue of prohibition or a revision of the Volsted act was placed as a clear-cut political problem by William G. McAdoo last night in a speech decriing the election of any wet candidate to the presidency. This issue should be clearly defined in the coming controversy. During the eight years of the existence of the eighteenth amendment, the liquor problem has frequently furnished one of the most fruitful and gratifying hedges for shrewd politicians to dodge behind. The fact is that in many cases the ability to evade the issue has been regarded as an excellent criterion of the merits of the politician. The endeavor to legislate morals embodied in the eighteenth amendment has created a sharp division in the public opinion of the country. Political riding of the fence has kept the public mind in a state of turmoil. It is time for a show-down. It is estimated that 30 cars of beer are being shipped into Lawrence yearly. The brewers always have advertised its nutrient qualities, even before the days of Volastand. BUT ITS SETTLED NOW "Ignorance is bifles," it has been said so many times that the phrase has become trite and threadworm. Occasionally, however, we find an example which is decidedly refreshing. There has been a civil war in Kansar; a 1927 edition, as it were. If you do not remember anything about it that is just because you are not fully in step with developments in this state and, in particular at the University. If you would find enlightenment on the subject, it is but necessary to pick up a recent copy of a great English newspaper, The Manchester Guardian, to read there as follows: CIVIL WAR IN KANSAS "The controversial fire smoulders still by habit over the demeanor of his students' brains or bristishness of Cambridge, and other such grave matters pale to candlight in comparison with the University of Kannas, U. S. A. It is well known that the main preoccupation of the American undergraduate, and about the only preoccupation of the alumnus, or "old boy"; is an extremely vigorous athlete. The student will be the general public an interest comparable only to English interest in the bounce战. For some seasons past the Kansas team has met with many players who have not been hacking cris-alumni and local men of business who put the blame on to Dr. Forrest C. Allen, director of university athletics. He is also the game of basketball and author of a manual styled "My Basketball Bible." (It must be understood that basketball in America is not the mild pastime of the girl school ground, but a most fervent sport.) Doctor Allen, it was alleged, had subjugated the lofty interests of Kansas football to his own inferior status and business men, who five years ago raised $500,000 to build a football stadium, feel that they are not playing the game as professionals critics gained an initial success when the four football coaches resigned in a bunch as a protest against the new policy. They suffered a setback when it was disclosed that one of their leaders was himself an aspirant for the position of director of athletics by the basketball playing Allen. The leading university journal has modestly suggested that the athletic department does notactic Board, and no one has paid them the least attention. Our English athletes may not reach the ex-communities we know but there are compensations.* It is only to be regretted that information so valuable was not available at the time of the "great conflict." For the benefit of our English brothers and sisters it may be added that the Kansas civil war is over now. Some Britishier must have hive Mayor Thompson an awful wallop to make him see stars that way. And six-pointed stars at that. We wonder whether the near beer saloon which is to be opened in Lawrence in the future will carry the following notice above its door "We serve near beer, because there is no real beer here." A recent survey made by a subcommittee of the prisons at Anderson and Leavenworth, report that women cost the United States almost ten times as much as men. We didn't know that they let women use cosmetics in the prisons. Showing the New Spring Woolens Schutz The Tailor 917 Mass. Knox Caps for Spring DR. H. H.
