Kansas is an agricultural state. The farm population is steadily decreasing. Each year sees an addition of 5,000 acres and at the present time a large increase of land is not cultivated.

"As I see it there are three causes," Martin continued. "First, is the imposition of oppressive taxes; second, is the unreasonable depletion of land; and thirdly, the unreasonable deflation of farm products. The remedy is the reduction of railroad rates, and the stabilization of agricultural prices. It is enough to permit a reasonable profit."

LINDLEY ANNOUNCES "TORCH" MEMBERS
"Me- ers Have Contributed Much by Unobtrusive Service," Says Chancellor
BISHOP JONES LECTURES
Cooperation and Deliverance From Self the Solution of International Affairs
The following members of "Torch",
honorary senior women's society,
were announced by Chancellor E. H.
Lindley at concession this morning:
Marissa McFadden, Mitchell Mitchell, Gaena M. Ela B. Mahnan, Kansas City, Mo.; Jessie E. Dana,
Lawrence; Lione Forcic, Ablieve;
Lionie Bingamane, Ottawa; Elizabeth Evans, Lawrence; Laura Harkrader,
Jennie G. Bardinnion, Lawrence.
"The members of Torch have made a large and consistent contribution to the higher life of the Universi- ter rather even than this is the spirit of their "Leaders," said Chancellor Lindley preceding the announcement of the names. He then introduced Bishop Paul Jones of London, the speaker of the morn- er on stage, to the subject, "Christian Brotherhood in Relation to Economic Welfare."
"You can not measure spiritual things by the material or pleasure by the pound any more than you can measure christianity by church prosperity or the church's dignity and virtue. You can not explain that christianity should exist in industrial, nacial and international relations of men."
As long as property values are placed before the command, "Seek the kingdom of God," no co-operation between industry and capital can be effected. Bishop Jones said. He continued, "There is no child in America who does not know that the seed of commerce in commercial and industrial rivalry is competitive struggles and then wins over it in way the possibility of war seems to forty per cent of labor and effort is wasted because of competitive life, antagonism and prejudice which is aggrivated by racial differences."
The one thing needed today to restore the world is co-operation. The world is co-operative approach, but a mingling of civil and welfare. The rebuilding of the world must come in the fullest co-operation and can come in no other way. He be so as God is making the world more peaceful relationships, the Bishon went on.
That the chief purpose of free government today is to insure the people the rights of life, liberty, and property, the greatest of these being prophecy is a modern version of the great dictum that "the least people it is one that will bring world peace."
Delivera ce from self, is the true meaning of religion and when we lose ourselves in the social life of mankind and human relationships, we begin to find ourselves in that new life of mankind.
"It is now time for a new way of living religion which will allow us to get fully into this world and will also allow us to go fully into that which is to come," finished Bishop Jones.
