His work was published in *The American Weekly* and on Punjabi magazine by authors like S. A. Janssen and C. E. Forsyth. The version of *Kawau From the Press of the Times* (London) is held at the Royal Historical Society.

AN URGENT NEED
SUNDAY, MARCH 6, 1935
AN URGENT NEED
Two of the University's most pressing needs, an auditorium and new library stacks, are taken care of by the school budget appropriation bill now before the Kansas legislature.
The lack of an auditorium adequate to accommodate the student body has been keenly felt for a number of years, and no building project could be more heartily welcomed by the University as a whole. Library service has been badly crippled this year, and many books actually unavailable, because of insufficient equipment.
The budget for this year shows a 9 per cent increase over the last appropriation, which, however, provided for no building projects. Four years ago, when the budget included the Library, women's dormitory, and completion of the Administration building the appropriation was 20 per cent farther than the bill proposed at its meeting in March. The funds for building appropriations to keep pace with the steadily increasing enrollment have caused crowded conditions in practically every department in the University.
The present proposal makes no allowance for any increase in the salary schedule, either for present faculty members, or those which it might become necessary to add through the yearly increase of 5 to 7 per cent in student enrollment. This means that the salaries of present faculty members remain the same over a period of four years. The undeirable effect, which this provision might have upon the personnel of the faculty may be overcome, in part, by the recent change in higher educational control from the board of administration to the board of regents.
GOVERNMENT BY, OF, AND FOR THE STUDENTS
Headline—Man Sells Wife for Hundred Dollar Debt —Makes many a hard up student he had one.
"More student government"-"self government for the students"-"student control of student affairs."
Sounds like a review of some of the election slogans on the Hill during the past few years. In fact the above phrases are but a few of the pet planks on which men have been elected in recent years. But Student Council in the past. But in spite of all of these well sound phrases, the degree of student government in still about the same as it has always been in the past, and that is somewhere below zero.
And now the University authorities present the Council with a proposition to turn over to it all diplomatic powers. The Council, it seems, turned down the offer because its members did not like the idea of "policing the campus" for violators of the rules. But the Council did make a proposal to take over "certain of the diplomatic powers."
By "certain disciplinary powers," the council meant that it would try such cases as would be brought to its attention by written complaint of members of the student body or faculty. This, it is explained by memorial, would be on the same basis as such cases are handled at the present.
The Council, it seems, has two arguments against taking over full disciplinary powers. In the first place it is argued that its action would not be final—that the Chancellor could change its decisions at will. In the second place it is not felt that the members of the council, the body
which is to act as a jury to try the cases, should also exercise the police power that would be necessary to re-violate or injure the actions of lawmen.
As to the first argument it is true that the Chancellor has the power to veto any act of the Council. But very elders if ever has he exercised this power. He stands between the students and the public in responsibility, long as students pose themselves sufficiently he does not interfere.
As to the second argument, the members of the Council are justified in feeling that justice and police power should not be combined. Such an arrangement could hardly be expected to prove anticliarity. But why could not the Council be divided for such purposes? It would not be officers or a Council act as a bench against which the members of the council would report and prosecute students who have overstepped their privileges?
The students realize the position of the members of the Council, who do not like to feel that they are to get any of their friends into trouble. They realize that every time they penalize a student they will be severely criticized. It should be remembered that anyone who exercise such powers is criticized at some time. The fact that the person whom the clam is measured by the cleverness and wisdom of the action of those who are handling the case.
We have this problem before us. Some one must handle the disciplinary powers of the University; other representatives of the administration, the faculty or the student body. Why not have our elected representatives—students selected because of their leadership—handle the breaches of discipline? They are sure to be able to do it as efficiently as any other power on the Hill, and surely they will be more familiar with the circumstances underlying each case.
Why have so many been going to Cuba when there was a Kansas City'
TO THE WOMEN
Women's elections for W. S. G. A.
offices are next Thursday. Thirteen
positions on the Council will be filled
at that time, and the machinery of
women's student government will be
in motion for another year.
Both political organizations have,
t. the best of their ability, picked
candidates worthy of the offices.
They have tried to select women in accord
with the highest ideals of our University—those competent to carry out the work of government. They submit candidates to you. It is then your turn.
You are asked to express your preference by a vote. Strange as it may seem some of the women in our University fail to register their choice to participate as throughly as if they did not exist. Such is not true school spirit.
Success of student government is in direct proportion to the number of students who participate. Get acquainted with the candidates, you men voters, and help to make W. S. G. A. elections vital and of real significance. You have a vote. Use it

TOWSERS, GOODBYE
The powers that be say you are a naissance that you scratch up shrubs and disturb classes. Shades of Pi! Maybe so, but I can not believe that those ugly paths criscreaking the campus are your work. Nor do I remember a ease of your writing a letter in class, powdering your nose or scratching the initials of your fraternity on the arm of a chair. Sometimes you follow the class example and go to sleep, and many times I have admired your good judgement in saving.
Only a short time ago come near relatives of yours saved hundreds of lives in Alaska, succeeding where all else had failed; and here your antics may keep alive a lingering spark of

From many quarters is coming criticisms of colleges, students and education in general. Regardless of the merit of any specific proposal for reform, the very variety of criticism indicates a need for looking over this document which we are enamored for four or more of the best years of our lives.
For example how in our education training us to fit into the structure of the society, we can become a cop in the existing medicine, hone on staying in gear and making money? Or do he become one of the steering system of society?

"Well, old dog, if you are barred why not carry the scheme further?

Perhaps, old chap, they object to your expressed disapproval of those speeches care that daily impertile life on Mt. Orcad. Or perhaps it is just a part of the scheme of conformity—a bellow to the Great God Regulation—a concession to vermilion tape. You are as symbolic of youth as Pet Pan and we are too grown up, too stiff and formal to be seen in your company. We inhibitors of ready-made opinions must be on our dignity so as to refuse your friendly advances. Stay back now, if you are caught on the other side of the line you "will be disposed of in the manner speedily In." Perhaps you will go to the parlor with them; you are capable of no emotion and treats you as such, or to the department that is interested in the number of muscles you have or the amount of blood you will yield.

Missouri legislature the lawyer element, which is probably the most numerous single occupation represented in the Senate, forces to reform the criminal code which with its technical skills make it difficult to portray a pretty旷千 of a fleeting phantom.
To get back to the schools, course-
work, perhaps better, voluntary discussion
groups to consider the social
significance of the professions are
provided. We work in a hazardous,
cured, of course, in a hasphazed
fashion in the present curriculum of
he professional schools and colleges
but the balance is far out of line.
We can learn how to do a third with
our hands. We are long in our education.
To bring in this element of social service to our education does not necessarily involve dull lectures in glittering generalizations on a Sunday school topic. On ways of making an occupation more than a money-getting 'task' can be given by many of our deans and professors.
