The Daily Kaiwan aims to picture the undergraduate life of the University of Queensland by taking an aim at the way we stand by for the idea that the University is to be a home; to be cheerful, to be charitable; to be responsible; to solve problems to water birds; all to serve to the heart of the ability the university has to provide.
TUESDAY, MARCH 4, 1924
MARCH
March has arrived with a bang. That is the way March is supposed to arrive. The month was named after Mars, and he was the god of war. Whenever he sallied forth, he filled his belt with swords, jawmed a cutless into his mouth, and left a fresh row of tomebats to mark his course. It is up to March to imitate this namesake. A fifty mile wind takes somebody's newly dyed hat from its owner and evocts it down the avenue. The cheers of the multitude tell March that the prank was a success.
This year finds March a month for speculation. The world is tangled in one snarling mass of hatred and graff. No progress is in evidence to mark the course of a year in the behalf of peace. Europe is seething in a pot of hatred toward its neighbors, and America is boiling in a pot of oil. In the United States, there is much to speculate about. A president is to be inaugurated within a year. Will it be Collidge, or will the wheels of political maneuvering cast him aside? Much depends upon the outcome of the present troubles.
Approximately 80 per cent of the corn crop in the United States is sold on "the hoof" in the form of hog, according to statistics. The other 20 per cent is probably sold in "the bottle" in the form of hooch.
HAZARDOUS RUM-RUNNING
NARRABLE RUM-RUNNING Every evil carries with it the seeds of its own dissolution, then run-rum may be expected to disappear. But before it has disappeared it will have greatly harmed the dignity of the United States. This evil must not be permitted to run its own distraction but must be wiped out by the United States Coast Guard.
Thousands of cases of liquor are brought into this country every mouth and the American defense is helpless because of serious defects in laws and inadequate means of prevention.
Commander C. S. Root of the Coast
Guard recently made a detailed
report of the rum vessels to Congress
to justify an appropriation whereby
the Guard can be made strong enough
to cope with the situation.
vention.
The summary of Commander Root's report is:
(a) The enemy is engaged in open warfare on the constitution.
(b) He is virtually unhampered in his operations by this or any other government.
606 He is introducing into this country at least one hundred thousand cases a month by way of the Atlantic and Gulf Coasts.
Non-enforcement of the law is destroying the dignity of the United States constitution. The large amount of money obtained through the unlawful sale of liquor is flowing into the finances of the underworld and in the belief of Commander Root is one of the prime causes of the increase of crime in the United States
time in the UN. President Coolidge has said that the Coast Guard should be strengthened. Indeed it should, at least, to the extent that it can uphold the dignity of the land against foreign invaders who attempt to heed not the laws.
If the United States is to have a constitution and a dry country, the constitution and the laws must be uphold even to the extent of using the standing army.
Tao Kun, president of China, was at one time a cloth merchant's apprentice which goes to prove that America is not the only country that has self-made presidents.
THE VETERANS BUREAU
The voter's bureau is noted for two great faults. The first was that of inefficiency. This fault has been fairly well cleared up by Hines, the present director. The other fault is graft. For a short period following the war, the politician did not appy this fertile field for his wantonness and robbing methods. Then along came Forbes and his henchmen. They lost no time in diving into the "Pickings."
The great towel exchange came up and operated. Towels which had cost the government a war profiteer's price were sold for one fourth of their actual value. Real estate next attracted the attention of the plunderers. Sites were bought from dear, patriotic, flag-waving citizens for a kish'n ramson. Hospitals were built according to "blood money," and not according to common sense. Everything went fine until somebody told on Forbes. He was fired and an investigation started. His chief henchman committed suicide in Washington on the night that the investigations commenced.
Thevetransbureauhaslongoweda thorn in the side of many people. It is referred to as the national charity. It is not remembered that the government ran an insurance company during the war. Practically every soldier in the army paid insurance dues at the rate of six or seven dollars a month. In spite of this thehowlerssaythat they aredonatingmoneytotheex-serviceman. Aninsurancecompanyissupposedtopayitspremiumwithoutawhisper. ThatiswhattheUnitedStatesistryingtodo now. Forbesis athiefandacoundrel.

As the Buck company would say:
When better basketball teams are built up, "Phog" Allen will build 'em.
Courses in real estate are part of the curriculum of Columbia, Boston, and California universities. Courses in real states might be more popular right at this time.
The maxim tells us that work is a cure for melancholy. But we wonder why there are so many melancholy work trs.
Campus Opinion
o the more, and more is justified the fifteen of the flag at half-mast. It is now seemingly an established fact that student loyalty is dead.
The basketball team, you team, champions of the Missouri Valley, the team that overcame Missouri and gave it a decided defeat, gave it into Lawrence Sunday morning at 10:30. There were exactly 10 people at the station to meet the team. Yes, a few others were on the platform, but the team and we were for other trains. We were for Kansas! Just picture this in your minds. Here was the basketball team of the University of Kansas, champions of the Missouri Valley, the team that has two conferences, the last one has and has brought honor to your school and also to you. Here it was, returning home after winning the two most vital games of the season. Was there a welcome them? If the welcome was in the hotel, then the 10 person could be known there was a mighty welcome, but numbers are what count in a matter of this kind. Where were the two, or four thousand, calls themselves? Son of Kansas?" The best guess would be that they come home in bed.
were Honest, not nothing less than a disgrace and a terrible reflection on the student body. The expressions on the faces of members of the team and its coach as they stopped the train to hear their story; then reciprocity, then surprise, then wonderment, and finally, "Well, we're used to it now."
The season is over now. You bury in the victory that is K. U.'s what part did you do? J. M. T.

Spring Is Here!
When it's finally stopped a 'mauvain',
and the breeze is gently blowin', and the sun comes out and shines 'most
every day; when the birds are aware winding their song, they snare the squirrels begin to
scamper 'round and play; when each night the moon is shinny', settin'
kindred hearts' watch chameleon twinkling 'twins'; then your step 'a little
lighter, and your smile's a little brighter, and your troubles seem to
vanish. Spring is here!
