"Loss of Highway Commission to Cost State," Says Ise
Economics Professor Talks on Road Question Over Kansas City Star's W. D. A. F.
Kansas City, Mo., March 13. "If money for goods is broad but spessive, it must be under the supervision of some state agency, similar to our State Highway Commission," said Prof. John Iso, professor of economics at the University of Kansas in an address broadened last night from station WDAF, the Kansas City Star. "The present movement to abolish the State Highway Commission seems to have a way to regrettable step to take for if the counties have to build the roads they will almost certainly do it worse and at a greater expense than the State Highway Commission.
"I have no double myself that the abolition of the commission would cost the state of Kansas millions of dollars within a few years.
People Will Consider Question
"On the general question of roads, the Kansas people will probably decide wisely. They use and pay for the roads, and I have very little doubt that they will size up the question in order to make them want, and the kind they can afford. One caution I would like to urge, however, is that the state look very soon into the question of proper maintenance. The new paved roads were built.
"It is entirely clear that we have need for at least three different kinds of highways. First of all, it is necessary to have federal highways, paid in part and maintained in part by the Federal government. These roads should have state roads, to go from one part of the state to another. These roads should be built by the state. Then lasz, there are the local roads, perhaps to be further classified as county and township roads. These roads are mainly for the county and not for the poor good as the federal or state roads," said Professor Ise.
Kansans Prosperous
"We must recognize that the people of Kansas are not very prosperous right now and will not be until agricultural prices rise somewhat. The present situation of the Kansas farmer demands the strictest economy as long as it is wise economy. My own experience shows strongly with read building, making sure that the money is well spent" stated Professor Ise.
"There must be some sort of a tax for the upkeep of the roads. Whether the tax shall be on automobiles and trucks according to their weight, or perhaps one or two cents on a gallon of gasoline, or both, is a question for the tax experts to determine. But there must be some effort to put part of the roadways on the roads all the roads, on those who use them. Most states are finding it necessary to tax gasoline, and Kansas may have to do this."

Walter Hampen is a native of Brooklyn, N. Y., and was graduated from Harvard in 1900. He studied law at the University of the company formed by Frank Benson. With this organization he played seventy roles, many of them Shakespearean. After three years with Benson, Hampen became leading lawyer.

Freasurer Thompson Send Message to Legislature Inviting Them to Investigate
Topela, March 13—Charging that state treasurer, E. T. Thompson, and state auditor, N. A. Turner, had conspired to violate the law by placing Russell, Gov. Jonathan M. Davis in another message to the legislature today called upon the House to impeach the two officials. It was the first definite demand of the governor that impeachment proceedings be in effect.
"This message is necessary," the governor said, "because in regard to the first message, while a committee of the House was promptly appointed, said committee was not given full power to make investigations or ask for advice on things necessary to go into a full investigation of the facts."
The message not only reiterated the charge that had been made in the two previous messages, but it indirectly accused the House of trying to find a way of escaping the response of mandating impeachment proceedings.
Ball clay, flints, feldspar, and kaolin are shipped in from several southeastern states. These materials are mixed in definite proportions with water, and run through the blunger, or mixing machine. The material from the blunger is strained through silk lawn to remove impurities; then through a strong magnetic field into a diatom. It is pumped from the clitermite chamber of the blunger where the high pressure removes sufficient water to leave in the proper plastic condition for molding.

Message Necessary
State treasurer Thompson, following the reading of the Governor's message, sent a message to the legislature asking that it would "welcome an investigation."
Thompson Makes Statement
In his message Thompson said, "The message of the governor to you均匀 charges against my administration of the office of state treasurer has been brought to my attention. The governor has asked you to investigate. I am ready for the investigation and will gladly place at the disposal of all of my books and records and furnish all assistance in my power to aid such investigation," he said.
The cast of "Mr. Pim Passes By" returned last night from their trip to Eudora. They played before a good house, and according to Miss Ceilee Burton, who is coaching the play, it was a success.

When he began working with clay his efforts were turned to the manufacture of pyrometer tubes. During his spare moment he began experimenting with the monotony from the monotony of his regular work. The result of his first experiment was so successful that he carried his diversion further. With the first success as an inspiration he proclaimed that he had achieved and attractive pieces of pottery.
Pottery similar to Haviland ware is being produced in Lawrence, perhaps one of three places in the United States that can boast of the fact. Down in East Lawrence, on Delaware street, Prof. Paul Teetor has established a shop, in an old stone building, which used to be a dwelling.
"Make March go-to-church month" is the slogan of the University of Michigan Daily for this month.
"Mr. Pim Passes By" Plays to Good House at Eudora
Tonight they go to Wellsville, where they will give one performance, and from there to other small towns in the state. They will finish their trip on Sunday. Monday night they will give their final performance in the Bowersock. Miss Burton says it should be a great success because of the amount of performance the east have had in a whole week of public performances.

disc. When the article has acquired the proper shape it is removed from the throwing wheel and allowed to dry. Each piece is given the proper finish by turning in a lathe. After turning in the lathe, the articles are dried in a heated room to insure the absence of all moisture.
The articles are placed in a kilm and dipped in a glazing solution. The insides of the articles are glazed with white, and various colors are given to the exterior by the proper mixture of mineral oxides in the glaze. After drying, the article has been allowed to dry the articles are placed in saggers. The saggers, which are receptacles of fire clay, are piled up in "bungs" inside the kiln, and each sagger sealed with a small bit of Kansas clay. The kiln is kept at this temperature for a few minutes before it is turned off and the kiln allowed to cool so that the finished product may be removed.
He came to Kansas as a member of the State Geological Survey, and was on its staff when the legislature abolished that branch of our state activity. When the survey was abolished he took up the task of making pyrometer tubes, out of which grew the pottery business.

Build Insect-Breeding Cases to Investigate Habits of Plant Lice
Graduate Student Designs The Special Receptacles For Observing Aphids
Special insect-breeding cases for technical investigation of one of the most difficult families in the insect world, the aphids, have been designed by C. E. S. Sanborn, A. B. 60, of the University of Chicago in the department of entomology.
Mr. Sanborn's design consists, first, of a receptacle in which are grown the plants on which the insects are to be raised and observed. Over this is placed a detachable insect cage into which parasites, a different type of predator than that of the aphids, cannot enter, and from when the aphids cannot issue.
Aphids, or plant lice, are parthenogenetic insects and are one of the most important economic groups. The "Green Bug" is an example of this family. It destroys grammaticous plants, such as wheat, oats, and others.
The cage is cylindrical in form two feet high, eighteen inches in di

the base is a celluloid door through

In these cages, the aphids are incubated and studied in confinement. The cages are placed where the temperature is as near normal as possible so that the insects can be studied under natural conditions.

Scandal Sheet at Nebraska?
As a Result Fraternity May Lose Charter
Lincoln, Nebr. — "The Evening Shun," locally known as the "scandana sheet" of the University of Nebraska, is "in bad affair." If Chancellor Avery of Nebraska has his way about it, the Nebraska chapter of the honor society lost its charter, and all because it fostered "The Evening Shun."
The chancellor complains that the fraternity abused the trust repressed in its members when permission was given to publish the paper. It had been harmed by the chancellor but the university did not have the censorship that the faculty rescinded the action and the publication was issued again this year.
The chancellor told national headquarters of the journalism fraternity
that the paper defamed the women of the university. The paper also attacked the faculty members who had opposed the "Shum." The young men responsible have declined to make a statement. It is thought that further issues will be previously edited by members of the faculty.
The Tethasigma Pi, professional journalism soorility, will entertain all the women in the department with a tea, coffee and wine menu. The women's rest room of Fraser Hall.
