A. THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN VOL. XXIV Major M. A. Palen Declares Radicals Are at University Communism Is Spreading Throughout Colleges, Army Officer States In an address before a crowd of 200 students, faculty members, ex-solvers and citizens, Maj. M. A, Palen of Kansas City made a plea for the abolition of communism from the campus of the University, at a meeting in Myers hall Tuesday evening, May 24. Major Polen presented many interesting facts upon which his talk was based, to show that this anti-government, anti-religion and anti-patriotic movement was growing in the United States. Reviews Communism in World Reviews Communism in World In the enumeration of facts that led up to his discussion of the present situation, Major Paalen reviewed the importance of growth in the world. He stated that the whole communistic movement grew out of the great German propaganda machine established at the outbreak of the war. After the war, the Russian government took over this great propaganda scheme to communicate ideas throughout the world. In Russia the idea took hold immediately and now the results of their work have borne fruits as shown in the present Russian form of government, according to Major Palen. "In America different federations and clubs have been formed by the master leadership of the governing party to spread the idea of communism in the United States. Among these are the "American Peace Federation," one of the greatest mainstays of the radical element in America; the "American Civil Liberties Union"; and the women clubs throughout the United States who are working blindly for the cause and are fighting against the United States into a world scheme envisioned by communicative minds." Major Palen said. Major Give Radicals Slogan Major Give Radicals Slagan "Many student organizations have abolished their ideals in the United States by the musicals to further the ideals of anarchy and communism. These organizations are: The National Student Forum; Gentleman's League of America; Intercollegiate Liberty League; Fellowship of Reconcilers; and the Communist Club. The latter brought roots from the crowd. Expresses Opinion of Dove Major Palean said that the slogan of the radicals, "Give on one generation to train in communistic ideas and we will establish a Bolshevik government," is trying to be established in all of our schools and colleges throughout Russia. It asserted that Russian students and professors were being sent to America to spread the communist theory in America. Expresses Opinion of Dave Major Palen, in his discussion of the crisis in Iraq, said best friend that the country has.

The accomplishments given were: The help with the first invasion; the protection to the pioneer; establishment of government in the Philippines, Panama and Cuba; the eradication of disease in these tropical countries; and that it has worked hard and harbor work. In closing, Major Paken with a few issues of the Dove in his hand declared that here was evidence of the fact that there is a small nucleus of students in the University helping to promote communism here.

UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, LAWRENCE, KANSAS, WEDNESDAY, MAY 25, 1899 Misunderstanding Basis of Conflict of Races--Pickens Negro Speaker Traces Rise of "Race Psychosis" in U. S. Since Civil War In an address before approximately two hundred students, faculty members, and visitors, Dr. William Pickens, field secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, discussed "The New Yorker" in the afternoon format together in central Administration and toryum. Doctor Pickens gave us the reason for racial conflicts between the White race and the Negro race the fact that the two races do not understand each other well. We know more acquainted with nature and animals than with men, because nature doesn't answer us back. We know more about a distant star than we do about our own planet. Our science has made ought to encourage us in our social relations with men." Doctor Pickens presented facts to show why the weaker group of people know more about the stronger or the dominating group. He said, "The Whites are the dominant race and do not learn about the Negro as the Negro learns about the white race through reading of newspapers and books which are written about the white race by the white race." In leading up to his discussion of the present situation of the race Doctor Pickens gave a brief history of the Negro race from slavery. "Slave trade started in America about twelve years after the whites landed in America. Dutch traders used the need of cheap labor and started capturing African slaves well as slaves. Africa was robbed of about three hundred million people, three-fifths of whom never arrived in America. When President Lincoln made his cannion proclamation there were 3,500,000 Negroes in America; today there are $155 million in taxes on $82,900,000. Negro Schools Inferior In the form after his talk, Doctor Pickens discussed segregated schools. He said, "There are 15 states in which Negroes are not allowed to go to school with the white students. The Negro disapproves of this method, not because the Negro wants to go to school with the Whites, but because under this method the segregated schools are inferior to the white ones." To me, this per cent of the tax per capita than the white child does." As a cure for this conflict between the races, Doctor Pickens said, "Social peace will come with understanding." Doctor Pichke is repeated to be one of the foremost speakers of his race. He has spoken at many large universities throughout the country. He is interested primarily in the betterment of the colored race.
