THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN No.129 VOL. XXIV Cantonese Rule in China in Time Is Corbett's View Speaker at Forum Declares Nationalist Movement Is Rapidly Gaining Strength "The people of China, as a whole, are favorable to the nationalistic movement," and Charles H. Corbett, secretary of the Christian World Education Committee, in his talk, before the session at the luncheon forum on Myers hall today. He explained that those living even in the northern provinces would give support to the Cantonese if they were defeated. He pointed to justice of the militaristic group which is in control there. It is to this fact that he attributes the success of the Cantonese army practically certain crimes. China is merely a question of time. The "hot spots" of China, he went on to say, are tariff and extra-territoriality. Here he traced the origin of the treaties between China and some sixteen or seventeen nations in the early 19th century, a notherapy, that did not exist in the early dealings of China and foreign nations. Foreigners Given Privileges The amount of the tariff then set by the various trencies was limited it 5 per cent of the valuation which he explained, was fair enough at that time but due to a great change in values it has become much unfair. Mr. Corbett, said that the Chinese had been allowing foreigners to come into their country and buy land and establish many homes which closely resemble houses in a very large amount of land in this country have been futile, he added. He urged the people of the United States to be fair to the Chinese, since they allowed Americans so much freedom in China. The question of the tariff, which has been one of the most important problems of China since the Boxer rebellion, is now rapidly decreasing, he said. T. V. Seng, a graduate of Wuhan University, professor of Finance, and he has been conducting financial affairs in an honest manner. The amount of money which the Chinese owe foreign nations is decreasing and they will have it paid in a short time. The difficulty of raising revenue has been the cause of most of the disorders in China in recent years, and disorders in China in recent years. Three Leaders Are Named Three Leaders are Named The establishment of a military academy recently by the defense is one of the most important events of our time. He also said, the Academy is governed by several Russian military officers who are giving the Chinese training. Six hundred officers were graduated from the academy within six months, with only one and one-half years training. SIX PAGES A short discussion, in which Mr. Corbett answered questions concerning the Chinese situation, was held immediately after the luncheon. Mr. Corbett named three men as the most influential officials of the Chinese government. They are: T. V. Soong, minister of finance of Kuala Lumpur; Kai Yu, vice president of the People's Republic and Michael Borselin. Borstein is a Russian who has been behind the nationalist movement, and is now very popular in China. Mr. Corbett thinks that if the United States will allow Chinese to return China, that collaboration will be peaceful. Prof. R. H. Wheeler Asked to Edit New Publication Prof. R. H. Hweler, of the department of psychology, has been asked to be one of the associate editors of a new periodical, "Journal of General Psychology" which will begin publication next winter.

This places the organization among women in the school of Business on the same bush as Rata Gamma Sigma, men's honor society of that school. Those on the Hill who are now members of Gamma Epsilon are, Anna McCroenken, instructor in philosophy, Jessica Martineau, c27, Jennifer White, $^{a}$ Men's Student Council Passes Bills Reported by Election Committee Joint Vote of Men and Women to Be Taken for Officers of Jayhawker Bill reports by the student election committee concerning the election of student officers and the abolition of the office of second vice-president. A third meeting of the council was passed at a meeting of the council Wednesday night. "After much consideration, we think we have accomplished something for the good of the University and something that has been achieved.

Oread Humor Bird Weathers Storm Well Vostering's Kansen carried an advertisement to the effect that the Sour Owl would fly today. The impression to be gained was that gray bird would be seen circling the campus to perch upon Spencer-Therayer or The old bird did make his appearance but the condition of the atmosphere had so dampened him that he was forced to contine his flight to short legs along the walks of the campus. His brilliant plumage clung to his side, but his wings were squawked and boomed, scared and made owlish gestures and but few failed to be reminded of his presence. The campus is now being visited by any species of fowls. Next Monday he Dove flies from the South to coe bour our campus in search of a Sinaiair (not oil) station upon which to fly. The Hawk is said to be notting and will soon appear with some little Hawkettes. Read the Kansan want-ads daily Speculation has ensued as to what effect a spring shower would have on these campus birds. Can they weather the storm or tuck their heads under their wings and pray for the sun? Can the owl be a bird of interest? Or is the owl a funny bird. Can its feathered friends be so successful or determined?
