K. U. IMPUNGED
That students in the University of Kansas are attempting the overthrow of the American government was the plain implication of the talk made by Major Palen at the Y. M. C. A. forum last night. An implication it was, was that the major offered no evidence to support his assertions, and refused to remain for a discussion where the grounds for his belief might be brought out.
This is decidedly unfair to the University, for it amounts to summarily suspecting every student of the University of treason without giving a single piece of valid evidence in support of the assertion. Reading from the Congressional record, without disclosing who was the author of the section read, as the major did, is no evidence whatsoever. It is impossible to believe that those who agree with the major that pacifism is bad accepted all of the major's assertions about Red Russia ruling the University.
For the honor of the University the charges made by the major should be either proved or disproved.
THE FLYING FOOL
That Lindbergh has caused small boys to give up ambitions of becoming cowhogs and Indian fighters is the surmise of the Atchison Globe. If the Globe's editor were observant, he would see that "Silim" is the first fruit of a generation fed on the exploits of wartime aces. Pew of us now in college ever had a bankering to be cowhogs.
Back in the days when myths were made, one earworm got as much publicity in proportion as Captain Lindbergh is getting now. Earworm, too, was a "flying fool," but his foolishness was of a different sort. When that pioneer aviator discovered that he could fly, he became so intoxicated by his sense of power that he flew too close to the sun, and was killed.
With Lindbergh it is different.
Around a flying field, "flying fool" is a term of veneration and of man-to-man endearment. It is never used as a name, but always as an adjective.
It is never "the" "flying fool, but," "n" "flying fool. Neither "Slim" Lindbergh nor any other flyer who is termed "a flying fool" by his fellows is any fool at all. Fools, as the public understands the term, do not last long in the flying game.
Lindbergh carefully calculated his chances beforehand, and he took no unnecessary risks. Good pilots do not "the flying foe" take risks when necessary; but he goes into them with his eyes open, and comes out alive because of precautions taken beforehand. His is not the reckless, devil-may-care daring which non-dynear think it. It is something much nobler: knowledge skillfully and daringly applied.
Some of the scoliers who are turning down jobs because "you can't have a good time in that town," are likely to meet up with a boss who will "show 'em a good time."
Some statisticians should figure the loss of graduation presents suffered by seniors because the invitations were late.
FOREIGN INVESTORS CRY "WOLE! WOLE!"
Now comes Thomas F. Millard, newspaper correspondent in China, with the announcement that foreign business men residing in the international settlements have launched a campaign to influence their home governments toward a policy of intervention. The group plans to raise a million dollars to be spent for propaganda to show that intervention is the only solution of the Chinese enigma.
Just how this million dollars will be pro-created among the countries and what part will be used in "educating" the American people, Mr. Millard does not say, but it is not unlikely that the United States will get a nice slice.
In motion the pachyneism is once acted on the motion the anti-force cry will begin, and not until a favorable public opinion has been produced will the cry cause. The propagandists, shouting from the columns of the press, from the pages of millions of pamphlets scattered throughout the land, and from the lecture platforms and perms the pulpits will appeal to the patriotic impulses of the masses, all the time keeping the real motives of the campaign behind the scenes. Once the propaganda opinate has been sufficiently applied to the public conscience intervention will be an easy sten.
Reliable authorities other than Mr Millard declare that the agitation for intervention is much greater in the international districts in the Chinese cities than in any of the home countries. The motives for all this great sire are by no means altriatric, but rather mercenary. The rising tide of nationalism in China has threatened the safety of the property of foreign capitalists who have invested heavily in Chinese industries. Rather than bce they would prefer to give the Nationalist movement squelched by the marines and gunboats.
Calling attention to this proposal to reorganize the United States and the other countries is by no means a false alarm, because such a campaign would in all probability have a dire effect on the future peace and prosperity of this country. At present the administration has adopted, and widely so, a hands-off policy. It apparently desires to let China work out her own salvation, and by no do will earn the everlasting gratitude of the Chinese people. But if pressure is brought to hear on the government by middirected public opinion stirred up by the gentlemen who have axe to grind, then we shall have no assurance of keeping the good will of the people of one of the greatest countries of the world.
Major Palen worshipped his right-conness so much that he did not want to expose it to the unrightuous.
WORTHY IMPERFECTION Found! A government bureau that realizes that it is not perfect!
The federal commission trusted with the seemingly impossible task of straightening out the tangle of wavelengths in use by broadcasting stations, in announcing its allocations, announced also that the reassignment of stations and wave lengths was not ideal, and that all stations will be given opportunity to present later their petitions for changes and reallocations.
This confession that its work is not infallible, and this leaving open the way to intelligent change, are refreshing assurance that all who receive government appointments do not believe that thereby they are made omnipresent. This sensible announcement lends greater strength for belief that the commission is sincere in declaring that its only basis of considering problems is the public welfare.

folk songs and songs of the earlier composers. Of these, "L'Anglouba," a Breton folk song, was the most artistically presented. The "May Day Carol," a folk song of a happier mood, was well liked by the audience.
the roof of Myer's hall rests framed, in its place today, and the Lawrence police force is peacefully marched the downtown streets instead of the city streets. Patron Patek grabbed his carefully printed charts, stuck his speech in his pocket.
Miss Nutter sang "Letti Signor," from Meyerbeer's "Les Huguenots" with greater clarity and life than was usual. In "In the Garden of Numbers," in "Es le bat die rose sich belkgt" by Franx, and "Tea Yeux," by Rabye, the mezo-song gave the audience further assurance of her technical command and convincing inguineity.
The quaint and unusual character of "Shelling Pearls" by Dulce, made it a song lil't effective for effective presentation, but Miss Mutter rang it easily.
Editor Daily Kansan:
The quality of Miss Nutter's voice is pleasing and she sang to her audiences graciously. Her program was well-received, and her construction had adaption its construction.
Little need he beid of the accompaniments played by Virginia Arnold, for they are always most sympathetic and artistic—Grace Winsor.
Campus Opinion

--and left the Y. M. C. A. Form to take care of itself after his dissertation on communism.
After these of the militant minority recovered from the disappointment of seeing their prospective victim slip from their bank, and after the representatives of the more militant group on the grin of observing the retort of their champion and his escort from the line of battle, the meeting degenerated into a bizarre discussion of communism and the Dove, conducted in a more or less formal manner. Finally the chirumman called a rays, after a long discussion, in response again serrated in the homes and student barracks of Lawrence.
It may be that Major Palen intended to deceive a blow to his opponents, and then retreat before they could rally their forces, but his strategy has been disproved by both his supporters and his opponents. His threats of violence have infuriated him, and his refusal to submit to a counter attack converges the impression that his forces were insure, despite his alleged honor in refusing to oppose the barbarians.
I wank my choice in antipatiations of a roached battle, in which one side would win, the other would be routed is really followed by a basty retreat, in which the fettle of neither side was tested.
The side demanding absolute freedom of expression is a small minority, so small, in fact, that it, is only through some of those wishing a fair right that it has any support through the country. It large enough to have a great influence.' It can continue its attack throughout the state without any organized opposition, and so take the state that the group which it is attached to the group, the tongueable no sense of opinion.

The minority has the right to have its principles challenged on the campus before they are condemned by a powerful organization in the state, and it feels that Major Falen and his supporters are extremely unfair if they continue their attacks unposed without submitting them to the fate of the United States. If the major is right, let him submit his proofs to a rigid cross-examination, and not beat a retreat as he did last night.-J. S.
