The Daily Kuman often aims to picture the university as a place where the Kuman can go further than merely print materials; it also emphasizes the University holds; to play no favorites; to be clean; to be cheerful; to be kind; to be patient; to be serious; to solve more serious problems to widen hands; in all to serve the best of its ability the most sensitive and creative students.

AMNESTY TO WAR PRISONERS
Word now comes from Washington that the administration is waiting for public opinion to crystallize before it will release the war-p prisoners, men who were thrown into prison in 1917-18 for alleged utterances which smacked of pacifism, and in some cases, anarchy.
The majority of these prisoners, who are now not only being unduly humiliated by a lethargic administration but also are swelling the budget of prison-expense, should be released quickly. It is safe to assume that the greater portion of them are harmless, that many were thrown into prison on more suspicion or pretension at an abnormal and critical period in our history.
The right of free speech is necessarily curtailed during war-times. It is only right that it should be so, Blatant outbursts of eloquence by extremists and radicals on questions which are vital to the efficiency of the machinery of government serve to disorganize that machinery and to demoralize a people. On the battlefield the context is more cumbersomely waged; the conflict is longer drawn out.
Now that the war is over these four years, and the nation has once more settled into the even tenor of its ways and has beaten its swords into plowshares—at least in purpose if not in practice—no reason remains for keeping our war-prisoners incarcerated longer. The fact that every nation participating in the Great War has already emptied its penitentiaries of its radicals and so-called "pardicts" is significant. Indeed, that much was done as early as October, 1919. Even our one-deleted enemy, Germany, steeped in Prussian militarism, consummated the last of her releases in 1919.
America's war-prisoners seem to have taken on another color; they are merely political prisoners now, subject to the whim of a slugger, clumsy machinery, which has forgotten to function. At least twice since the close of the war petitions have been presented at Washington, asking that amnesty be granted to those confined at Leavenworth and other federal penitentiaries. One was signed by thousands of war veterans.
If the United States government is waiting for the crystalization of public opinion on this question, it can begin the manufacture of caskets for its war-prisoners, for they will die of old age before opinion will be any less solvent than it is now.

If some of those students who are flunking geology courses were given a pick and crowbar and put in the hole west of the journalism building, they could study limestone formations at first hand.

MUTT AND JEFF OF LIFE
MEXICO'S CHANCE
Winner of the croix de guerre and a daring aviator, Serge de Lonz, a French war hero, has been sentenced to life imprisonment in one of the worst of French penitentiaries. He began his burglary career as a sneak thief in cloak rooms and as a lock-picker. Serge did well in the crisis, but he couldn't live up to the little things.
Yes, he was an heroic sneak thief ut he was a sneak thief.
And S-orge is not alone. The war told us that, In big things, men can be big, but it is the mill of the every life life that grinds out the good or the bad. It is the wear and tear of the trivial and the seemingly unimportant that tells.
Negotiations are under way to hold a peace parley in the city of Mexico in the very near future, looking towards a settlement between the governments of the United States and of Mexico.
The Frenchman has paid well—lift imprisonment. He has paid by looking at the big and forgetting the little, as we all pay—with ill accomplishment.
For more than a decade now, our government has maintained troops intermittently on the border, in the attempt to afford a need of protection to American interests across the lines. Conditions have quieted, only to be disturbed again when a band of raiders rode wildly across the border and back again to their mountain fastnesses, leaving death and destruction in their wake.
But now they report that the students have returned the courtesy. They have found out that students are human and do remember hazily when they are treated fairly. Of course, overdrafts will happen sometimes. The bank has to stand the strain of a few parties when room-mates haven't the spare change. In the long run, though they seem to be a thoughtless
The Obregon government, now believed to be in a sounder position than any government has been since the Old Diaz regime, is anxious to hasten a mutual understanding between the two governments.
It is Mexico's chance. The approaching peace parley may end like so many other parleys in the last five years. There may be only a great deal of talk between sauvie diplomacy, ending in nothing. Or, may be some real accomplishment may come out of the conference.
At any rate, if the diplomats on either side enter the parley with only the sincerese desire to settle the muddied waters between the two countries, and if all other interests are ignored, the hope for real and lasting results will not be in vain.
Lawrence banks report that student overdrafts are much less than last year and that there has been little trouble with student accounts.
The Lawrence banks did wisely to rescind their rulers last fall that student accounts should not fall below twenty-five dollars on penalty of a fine. This measure which was designed to prevent overdrafts was violently opposed by the students. The banks rescinded the order resigning themselves to what they thought was the same peek of trouble they had last year.

Creeps in our minds from day to day.
To the last minute before exams,
And all our yesterdays have not
fulfilled
Their expectations. Out, out foolish thoughts!

For willing minds, for energy, not bliss.
Which will never pass: This is a tale
Told by'an idiot, full of sound and hope,
Signifying nothing.

Written out by hand,
