Etching Collection Now On Exhibition Has Pieces Of Note
Work of Well Known Artists Represented in Art
Work
The collection of etchings furnished by the Chicago Society of Echters, now on exhibition on the top floor of East Administration building, contains many noteworthy pieces. Among the well known etchers who are represented are Robert Logan, B. D. White, James Hogg and Mrs. Bertha E. Jacques.
"The awakening interest in the Graphic Arts now evident in America is most apparent when we consider etchings," said Prof. Raymond Eastwood, instructor in drawing and painting at the university recently. The Chinese Society of Etchers which organized in 1910 is desirous of getting the public better acquainted with the etcher's art. Through the interest of this society, collections of the best pieces are sent o the larger cities.
"Is this an original or a copy?" is a common question. In etchings there are no copies; every impression made from a copper plate can be copied by another and still be an original. Etching is one of the most difficult of the arts.
Profit and Individualism Mus Be Placed After Service
Workers Need Democracy
"Before industrial troubles can be industry dust must be so reorganized that the workers may be an end, not merely a means to an end," said Prof. D. M. Mann of the department of sociology in his talk on Viewpoint in Industry at the student Viewpoint at the Universified Church Sunday.
Individualism and the placing of profit before service have been caused if much of the modern business strife "furthermore modern business methods have led to a dwarring of the personality of employees. In a unjuried fashion, the worker absolutely nothing to say as to how his work shall be conducted.
Democracy is what is needed in the organization of industry, according to Professor Mann. This must come eventually although at present there are only about two hundred considerable extent allow their employees a voice in the conduction of the business. The raising of wages, the so-called welfare work, and other suggested means only temporarily relieve the situation; the permanent solution must come through representation of the work.
Prof. Edward Kurtz, head of the violin department of the School of Fine Arts, will give a recital in Fraser Chapel on Tuesday, February 18th. He will be accompanied by Dylan Hirrison, of the piano faculty.
"I regard 'The Song of the Sea' by Kurtz, as one of the best of America's songs," says Dean Butler. Professor Kurtz is an artist and composer of no little note, and his prodigy will be a major work. This will be the fourth faculty recital of the season. The public is cordially invited to attend.

Effect of New System Not Felt

Lausanne Parley Ended By Turkey's Refusal Of Treaty
ismet Pasha Says "No" to All—Americans, Brit-ish, French and Italians
Lausanne, Feb. 4—The peace conference in the Near East has collapsed definitely, after a breakdown of negotiations caused by Imerne Pasha's refusal to accept the allied offer of the treaty, it was announced today.
A statement was issued by Ismet Pasha saying the Madania armistice pact will remain in effect "until Lausanne ends." The Turkish delegate pretends not to recognize that Great Britain's withdrawal from the conference was intended to collapse the parley.
1smet Pasha Immovable
tribal ruler aminobake Washburn Child, American observer of the Arab revolt, brought to hear all the possible influence upon the Turkish delegates today to persuade them to sign the peace treaty. There was some optimism among secretaries and observers that the parley might be resumed through American efforts, but the French followed the efforts of the British, who after Iran Pasha had definitively refused to agree to allied terms.
Bambassader Child offered mediation, and held a conference with the Turkish delegates. The All American representatives, Bambassader Child, Rear Admiral Bristol, and Joseph C Grew, called upon Israel Pasha after the break in an endeavor to save the city. He returned his departure for half an hour in an effort to make the Turkish delegate change his mind, but all was in vain.
May Negotiate Peace Later
The main reason the conference fathers agreed to accept the clauses concerning the future economic regime in Turkey, and because they would not accept the allied formula dealing with judicial guarantees for foreigners that were exposed to existing extra-territorial privileges.
"The conference is over," M. Bompard said. "It is a misfortune for Europe, especially Turkey, but perhaps we can negotiate peace later."
Washington, Feb. 5—The United States government will continue to seek a satisfactory settlement with Turkey of questions between the two countries despite the breakup of the Lausanne conference, it was understood today. Secretary of State Hughes and other officials of the state department are studying official reports regarding the breach at Lausanne and deliberating what course this country is to pursue.
European Students Suffer
Con Hoffman Writes of Conditions There
Privation and poverty among European students are even worse than is commonly supposed here, according to a letter received by George O. Foster, registrar, from Conrad Hoffman, a former student of the University, under date of December 29. He tells in his letter the story of a German woman in Berlin who was forced to pull c工 cart holding the body of her dead son to the cemetery and no money to pay funeral charges. He says that this is not an uncommon thing in many German cities.
Mr. Hoffman, who has charge of European Student Relief of the World's Student Christian Federation tells that the unanimous vote of the committee in distributing gifts at Christmas time was to give a loaf of bread to each of the Viennese students.
Mr. Hoffman who was Y. M. C. A. secretary here, just before the war, has been in charge of European Student belief for some time. He was given permission to write in his letter he sends a request for circulars published here concerning K. U.'s Christmas tradition. It was Mr. Hoffman who sent the picture of the European student's dream which he gave all of Caspar near the main entrance.
A defective fireplace is believed to have been the cause of a fire which kept the local department busy for two hours Saturday evening at the home of Dean J. G. Brandt, 401 Main Street. The damage was slight.
