McCANLES WRITES SONG THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN "Give The Students A Chance; Dedicated to K.U.Men and Women "Give The Students A Chance," is the title of a new song which has just been composed and dedicated to the students of the University by James C. McCanhes, who first organized the University band and of which he was director until the end of the last summer session. Director McCanes has been to the band what "Uncle Jimmy" has been to the School of Law. "Mae" organized the band twelve years ago and fathered it through the discouraging financial years until it now ranks as one of the very foremost university or college bands in the entire country. The new song which has been dedicated to the students of the University comes in the form of "Mac's" appreciation for the stuart fight the students put up to get the responsible authorities to appropriate reasonable salary for the band director, or make a more reasonable division of the salaries of the faculty members. The group of faculty members and the band director was included. The fight of the students and several of the faculty members proved futile. One thousand of the new songs have been printed and more than one half of this number will be given away free to University students. Complimentary copies have already bn given to the various fraternities and sororites by Director McCanles with complimentary copies, for all the clubs and hiuses where students of Prof. S. O. Rice, of the department of journalism. The copies should be called for within the next few days. The only request Director McCanales makes in regard to the distribution of the complimentary copies is that the distribution should be as wide and even as possible so that there might be one on every piano where students of the University room or board. The complimentary copies will be available until the end of next week so that every club or organization of students will be given ample time to get their copies. BY THE WAY Lawrence P.

GROAT (United Press Staff Correspondent), Berlin, (By Mail). A mighty off to destroy the Ebert-Bauer-Muler government is under way. The press admits it, the right and left are quite open about it, and the government itself knows that treament is pressing to establish a new regime. The government press is striving to create a sentiment for a "directorship of the middle parties," whilst the conservative organs quite frankly either lean for monarchy or something darkly reactionary, and the left papers are doing their utmost to restore the radicalism of last November. At present it appears to the best observes to be more or less a toss-up as to the source of the next coup; but there is a distinct impression that the fall or early winter—with its crippling effect on crops—was seized upon by the malcontents of right and left as a medium for their overthrow attempts. Erwin Barth, editor of Vorwerts, writes in the sociolist weekly, Die Gloeck, "There is no man in Germany who is content with the situation, and who does not want to be." We all know that, since the days of the revolution, we have day by day become poorer; that the foreign nations have no confidence in Germany; that the moral bewilderderm progresses daily and that dishonesty and disinclination to work control the situation in political and a economic things". All is talk, talk, talk, according to Barth, who would see Germany devoted to upbuilding—using all means in her power, even to brutal power, to attain the one needed end of reconstruction. Dilating on Barth's article, the Tagliche Rundschau draws the conclusion that the upbuilding, the restoration of order, work and peace are only come from "other sides"—namely the right—rather than from the middle, which it contends, has made a difference. The author is most implicated in the November resolution. There are adequate proofs at hand that the left's method at present is a bloodless program. The communists would overturn the government through a general strike. But, the communists and the independents are At the same time, the Rundauah says that the left is preparing "unier the eyes of the administration" to stage another revolution. On the other hand, the right has gathered funds for a strong campaign. It is behind the anti-Semitic propaganda which is being used as an excuse to carry sufficient internal trouble to cause an overthrow of the government. divided among themselves, and are not presenting the strong front which many credit them with doing. Meantime, the government and the proponents of a "dictatorship of the middle" are clinging on desperately hoping to weather the winter, especially through the method of taking in the social democrats.
