Kenneth Lindsay Discusses Different Aspects of British Labor
"The labor party will not solve the great problems before England today," said Kenneth Lindsay, Oxford graduate touring this country on a fellowship from the Workers Education Centre in London, and using "The British Labor Party."
"Both labor and capital in England are organized to the teeth. The problems confronting Great Britain today include the relations with France and Germany. England is bound to France by forces of sentiment, and to Germany by trade. Along with this pressure on France, unemployed laborers offer a very delicate problem of internal affairs," Lindsay said.
No Competition in England
No Competition in England
The capital system in England has not changed since the price of oil, and the hours under which labor shall work. There is no competition today. The condition in England is near monopoly. England is the world's largest monopoly on world goods that was held in earlier years. Today the United States is the credit nation of the world and the economy it once was," said Mr. Lusdieu.
In discussing the League of Nations Mr. Lindsay expressed the belief that in the future the present day football of political parties and scheming politicians would be a reality. "There is no universal remedy. Things must be approached from a different perspective." The Liberal party in England are tending toward two distinct opposing forces rather than as before having a middle or balancing force. The Liberal class in England is dropping." Mr. Lindsay said
"The great problem confronting those in power in England, is the education of the laboring classes so that they may be enlightened to govern intelligently. The Labor Party has been successful during the last twenty years had not the leaders been educated to forward their policies which have so successfully brought them into power governmental affairs," said Mr. Lindsay.
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, LAWRENCE, KANSAS, TUESDAY, APRIL 3.1923

Last year in honor of the tencentary of Molière's birth the director of L'En bourgisse Le Bourgisse Genthilhomme."
"This year's play, Le Distrait, is full of ludicuous situations and horseplay and presents the picture of a young man as absent-minded that he cannot make sense of his name. He even promises to procure her a regiment in the army, thinking she is addressing her brother. These and other quid pro juzus make the play funny because the characters attempt to correct the fobiles of mankind, and our manners are left unchastened as before," commented John A. Hess, assistant professor in the department of Romance languages, of publicity manager for the production.
Wright's "History of French Lit erature" ranks Regard as second only to Moliere among the comic authors of France, a man of super abundant vitality, whose plays, although insignificant as character studies or portraits of types, are full of animation.

Salaries Offered Teachers are not Lower This Year
Employment Bureau Compiles Statistics Which Show Increase in Pay in 1922
"Reports of vacancies in teaching positions that have come to us this season indicate that salaries are tending to become stabilized at about the level of last year," said Prof. W. H. Johnson, of the Teachers' Appointment Bureau of the School of Education.
Professor Johnson discredits the statement made that salaries are lower. Many teachers and others interested in the financial remuneration of teachers inquire daily at the Appointment Office, and are in regard to the trend of salaries.
Bouska Compiles Figures
Statistics compiled by Luther Bouska, el'24, from the salaries paid in the 887 accredited high schools of the state in 1921 and 1922 indicate that there was a general increase in nearly every case. The increase is considered a good sign by Bouska, who has stated that she have increased in that time. However, the increase in salaries paid to teachers has been only twenty-seven per cent over those paid in 1915, while the increase in the cost of living since that time has been 110 per cent.
The standard set by the Appointment Bureau of $1550 for inexperienced teachers has been accepted by school boards throughout the state, according to Professor Johnson. The school boards are willing to pay an increased salary to competent teachers, in his opinion.
In schools with an enrollment of one hundred or less Boskua found an increase of five per cent in the salaries of superintendents, and an increase of one per cent in the salaries of principal paid in 1922 over those paid in 1921.
Decrease Due to Taxes
A decrease of seven per cent is shown in the salaries paid to teachers in schools of less than one hundred dollars. This decrease is due to the fact that in the farming communities last year there was a feeling that taxes are too high, and also that inexperienced and often incompetent teachers secured positions in the small high school, according to the explanation offered by the compiler.
Superintendents received an increase of two per cent over the previous year in schools of from 100 to 400 pupils. The salaries of principal were raised one per cent, and those of teacher were decreased only two per cent.
In schools of over 400 enrollment,
the greatest increase was given to
children in grades 3 and 4, or
seven per cent higher salary
than the year before. Superintendents
received two per cent more,
and teachers had an increase of two per
The increase in principal's salaries in the larger high school was explained by the fact that the principal of the city high school must be an expert in high school matters and be familiar with the other special work of the school.
The figures on which Bouska bases his percentages were taken from the Kansas Educational Directory and are as follows:
Competent Men Needed

Notice to College Freshmen
All College freshmen are expected to see their advisers this week about their mid-seester grades. Lists of all advisers are posted and advises are posted at Business office window in Fraser hall. Freshman grads can be obtained only through advisers.
Nearly 500 warning letters are being sent this week from the office of the Dean of the College to students of the College who are failing or in need of their work. The letters are being sent on the basis of the mid-semester reports now on file in the office. They are being sent as a warning to the students in the hope that they will succeed at once while there is still opportunity in bringing their work up to the standard before the end of the semester.
"We are especially anxious that these students think over their situation and see whether or not they are trying to do too much in the way of outside work." said Paul B. Lawson, Dean of the College "In these letters we are asking these students to come to the office within the next few weeks and talk over their problems with us. Anything we can do to help them to make good in the work will be glad to do," he continued.
Plan Successful First Term
Mid-semester reports show a material improvement over last mid-semester reports in spite of the unusually large number of incomplete on-the-job assignments that students warned last mid-ssemester, 75 per cent raised their grades by the end of the semester and were allowed to go on with their work. The letters are sent not to frighten them or to warn them that they are on or near the danger line. They worked very successfully the first semester.
An extra large office force was kept working all during Easter vacation to get the mid-semester grades at this time. The grades were called for March 23 and after being turned in at the office had to be alphabetized, filed, and transcribed before the warning lists could be made.
