THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN "STAR GAZERS" SOON TO USE NEW BUILDING New Structure Ready For De partment of Astronomy has Modern Equipment "Astronomical studies at the University will take a great stride for ward Wednesday, when the Department of Astronomy moves into its new quarters west of Hawthor Hall," she said. "The department, this morning." "The new building will provide a class room with a seating capacity of 100, an office, an observatory room for the six-inch telescope which the University has long possessed but has never been used for astronomical transits and small telescopes. While the building is not prepossessing in appearance, it will give practically as good service, and will be valuable for making observations as any of the more impaired astronomers of the middle west west." The observatory, which was entirely planned by Professor Alter, will be heated by a continuation of the steam coduit that he marries Marvin Hall. The room which contains the large telescope will not be heated. This, according to Professor Alter, would interfere with the use of the telescope. A revolving dome is being made in the University repair shop to facilitate the use of the telescope. This will operate on the same principal as the dome for observatories, except that it will be mounted by hand instead of by electricity. Another larger telescope is now being made by Professor Alter to still further improve the astronomical equipment. Questioned with regard to financial backing, he said, "I hope I will be able to finish the finished the Board of Administration may be prevalued upon to provide funds for mounting it."

E. Melvin from J. L. Sellars, AB'F, 160th in the University of Wisconsin, at Madison. His letter is in part as follows: "Professor Westerman, who represented the Historical Department at the peace conference in Versailles on questions pertaining to the near east, relates how President Wilson early in 1921 pointed his finger at the Japanese delegation when they made their first claim to the Shantung in February, asked if they had not accepted the terms of the armistice. They asserted that the agreement meant the return of Shantung to China. The Japanese apparently agreed, but when Premier Orlando withdrew, and the conference seemed most discordant the Japanese said, "Give us Shantung to President." The President was alone and yielded. Professor Westernman says Venexes has a most effective censorship on all information of the near east. His influence was due to the misrepresentation he was thus able to effect. Colonel House seemed a susceptible victim. It was reported that the French press was accused of having and that the Italian invested freely!
