UNJUSTIFIED ATTACKS
The two attempts by disgruntled individuals and political groups to discredit the University administration have been to be lifted upon false charges.
The declaration of a former faculty member that inharmonious relations with the administration drove Dean Walker to suicide was cruel and unfounded. Dean Walker had an offer to go to another university at a substantially higher salary; his loyalty and friendly relationship kept him here. Mrs. Walker has declared that Doctor McKeever knew nothing of his intimate affairs.
The charge that the Chancellor has blocked adequate fire protection for the University is equally erosive. A Kansas City morning newspaper published a statement from a supposed engineering firm declaring that the adequate protection could be obtained for $300 by making a connection with a water main already laid to West University Heights, and recommending the construction of a reservoir.
Before the main had been held attempts were made by real estate promoters to have the University advance $50,000 toward its constructions.
A statement by Dean Shand discloses that the University already has a reservoir and a pumping station constructed for approximately 815,000 and affording protection unattainable from the west main. The city pressure would be insufficient to combat any large fire, no matter how many mains led to the Hill; the University pumping station would be required in addition. The present equipment of reservoir and pumping station will combat any fire for five hours without drawing upon the city supply.
The supposed engineering firm is non-existent. The "president" is a former student, and the "report" is a part of a class report.
It is such unfair and unbounded attacks as these that have been directed against the Chancellor ever since his courageous clash with ex-Governor Davis and Ku Klux Klan three years ago. Happily, the administration, the board of regents, and alert friends have firmly and loyally kept the University free from political machinations.
Our idea of a successful hunter, is the man who shot a bull frog with a double-barreled shot gun and found two hind-legs.
MILLIONS FOR DEFENSE
"Million for defense, but not one cent for tribute," was a saying often heard in the early history of our country. For the Fall-Sinchair proceedings it could, perhaps, be more appropriately stated as, "Million for defense, but not a cent for prosecution!"
The declaration of a mistrial recalls to the public mind most vividly the long series of difficulties under which the prosecution has been forced to work. It recalls the public lethargy, and even hontility toward any expose, which first had to be pierced by the small band of senators led by LaFollette, Wheeler and Walsh.
Even after the evidence of conspiracy was convincing to the public, a
through investigation had to be postponed from time to time because no money had been appropriated for the purpose. For a period the prosecution was dropped and almost forgotten because of lack of funds, and finally a few courageous men with faith of their convictions dug into their own pockets to bring those men to trial.
The present trial has had all the ear marks of governmental prestige. One would judge from all outward appearances that the coffers of the treasury had been thrown widely open. It then comes as a decided surprise to learn that the cost of the trial has so far been borne by two men, Owen J. Roberts and ex-Senator Pompeo, special attorney appointed by President Coolidge, because of the failure of the heat congress to pass the second deficiency appropriation bill.
Thus far things have developed neatly. The government during the past week has practically completed its presentation of an unusually strong chain of circumstantial evidence to prove that Sinchar paid fall $220,500 in Liberty lease. For the Temp Dome lease, everything painted to a conviction of the alleged conspirator.
Collapse of the trial now comes as a severe blow to all those concerned in the justice of the case. A new jury must be impmolled and every step retained. In short, it means a doubling of expenses. Whether the detestives were employed by Sinclair with the purpose of bailing a jurer to hold forth or coquittal or with has been not yet clear. But certainly the "million for defense" has again succeed fully blocked the path of the government.
The cruelty of fate is apparent in the case of the Minori man who was released from prison because he was "murdered." There isn't much left for a man who is no worries that he's "burned out of fail.
CONTROLLED FREEDOM
When the constitution granted the rights of freedom of speech and of the press, it was done in the belief that such freedom was necessary to prevent a monopoly of control of opinion, such central being in theory the basic element in a democratic government. But today this freedom has in some instances degenerated into license to such an extent that the constitutional guarantees are endangered. How to combine the necessary control of the press with the necessary freedom is a live problem today. The only plausible method so for advanced professionalization of journalism. Under this method, control would be left to a board of members of the profession, just as it is in the medical and legal professions.

Why are there so many charming women today?
NEVER before have there been so many charming women.
Wherever you go, you find them. Vivacions,
happy, beautiful, delightfully dressed in the most
exquisite taste.
Clear, pink-and-white complexion, luxurious, well- kept hair, gleaming teeth, trim athletic carriage—these are almost universal characteristics of American women of today.
Why?
At first thought it may sound absurd, but one of the most powerful teachers has been advertising.
Advertising has taught us how to care for our teeth, our hair, our feet, our hands and our complexions.
Advertising has helped to teach us all that the real basis of beauty is health and cleanliness. We are the greatest users of soap and water in the world.
Adverising has taught us how to dress—how to choose colors and fabrics and becoming styles.
Advertising has taught us how to talk, how to entertain.
One reason why so many women are charming is because so many women are reading advertising. From advertising they are learning the secrets of great beauty specialists. They are getting health information of inestimable value. They are learning the secrets of becoming dress from the famous designers of Paris and New York.
Advertising is one of the biggest reasons why so many women are so charming. Read advertising regularly
