"U. S. Is Elephant in the Barnyard," Says Philip Kern
Believes Rhodes Scholar Should Be of Service in International Problems
Characterizing the United States as "an elephant in the barracks" and predicting that within the next fifty years, a large number of structures of the world will be owned and operated by United States capitals and operated by Lloyd George and now executive secretary of the Rhodes scholarship trust fund, in concession last Tuesday. The three leaders of related relations facing the world as a result of the immense wealth and power at present concentration are among the few far-sighted measures that unleashed another and more disastrous world war will come in thirty or forty
Elaborating on the statement that the United States is an emigrant in the United States, I am also a member of an attitude in international affairs is usually one of "innovulent indifference," that when annoyed we display our wealth and power we so far exceed the rest of the world that when the U.S. wants to be whether it is a fence or merely a "small animal"—another notion. This makes Kerr an emigrant in the United States who are her
Naturally, he said, other nations are apprehensive of this growing power and he named it as its most important issue. He argued that capital into foreign investment fields. He declared that one-fourth of the capital of Canada was owned in the United States and a much larger portion in Germany. He also noted the racial and climatic differences of the two countries he said that they indicated the tremendously complicated problems in American foreign growth out of our world-wide activity.
The flow of American capital abroad, Mr. Kerr believes, is the result of the extremely low interest rates in America at present, coupled with the poverty of the root of the problem of the crisis of capital, though on lesser scales, had occurred in the past in Britain, Germany and France.
It is toward the solution of these problems that Mr. Kerr believes the need for more assistance to their countries. In his opening remarks, Mr. Kerr pointed to the weakness of democracy in the United States and its inability to the ability of the people of one nation to understand those of another and declared that it was to the benefit of the greatest English-speaking commonwealths which understood international problems that Cecil Rhodes established the scholarships which bear testimony.
Speaking of the probability of another world war, Mr. Korr said that nations are now, as men were thousands of years ago, without minimum ties to each other. His pole of the League of Nations as a "commandable effort" in this direction but said that it did not go far enough. It is his belief that war between civilized countries is established by cooperation and establishment of suitable services for settling disputes.

Football Coaches Resignations Are Surprise to Fans
Mass of Charges Brought
Fail to Show Reason
for Crisis in
Situation
University of Kansas students returned this morning from a Thanksgiving vacation of a few days and were surprised as well as shocked to see one of their coaches being handling football this year had resigned and their resignation accepted by the athletic board. The action took place last Wednesday, and they are now in touch with a general-broad of the University athletic status.
Cappon Presents Decision
Charges have been made on the athletic director and the coaches from all angles and concerning a number of incidents that are baffled to what to believe.
Head football coach, Franklin C. Cappon, with Harold Stecke, John Saba and Guy Lookahkaugh, who have assisted in football this season, turned in their resignation at the same time, after his retirement, to joint decision to the athletic board. It was with the implication that they were unable to work in harmony with the university's athletic director of the University, that they automated the resignation.
After much consideration and discussion in which the board got the opinions from all angles, they decided to accept the joint resignation of the chairperson. But after the board felt it had no choice and of course accepted the resignations.
Charges Poor Spirit
Coach Cappon on being questioned concerning the relations with Doctor Allen answered that he had never been refuted equipment or aid when he asked for it, but added that Doctor Allen did not supported him in spirit.
It was believed that Coach Cappon was hampered in his policies, from the statements first issued, but such a loss could be prevented of the board, because their policy has to allow the football coach complete freedom in dealing with the players and practice, as he saw fit, by providing interfering in the eave with the work.
The statement as made by the coaches upon resigning is as follows: "We have the best interests of ourselves and the University. We are resigning in face of the fact that the prospective student has been since we have been here. We do not feel that we have had the full co-operation from the one from whom we had the most right to expect it. We continue to present conditions."
Rumora Are Magnified
Many of the rumors concerning the friction between the football men and the defense were magnified considerably and a member of the athletic board has said that the trivialities being much more important than interpretations from the outsiders.
Chancellor E. H, Lindley gave out the following statement after the resignations were accepted:
"At a meeting of the athletic board held this afternoon the resignation of faculty member Mary Locahaugh, Harold Steele and John Sabo, of the football coaching staff, were presented and accepted by the board. The board regrets very deeply that the faculty members have seen fit to never their relations with the athletic department. Conch Capsen has, by his sterling character and earnest endeavor, won the respect of the faculty and the body and of the public generally."
Dr. Huff Will Stay
Rumors were also out that Coach H. J. Huff would resign but in a statement yesterday he absolutely agreed to engage and plans to stay with the school.
Dr. A. R. Kennedy published an article in the Topica Capital expressing the opinion that both Chancellor Larry Scalia and Mr. Koehler were responsible for the troubles of the coaching staff and in his statement advises some of the "higher ups" to join the University, with the University and was one of the men bidding for a coaching position at the time Doctor Allen came into the school. To date, however, Coach Koehler had nothing else to say this morning concerning the situation nor did he have any plans for the future. Many local fans are wooing Coach Koehler to feel that he has done well with the football team this year.
Reports are that the fight is not between the football coaches and Doctor Allen but between men downtown
