The Daily Kansan aims to picture the undergraduate life of the students, to offer them a better than merely printing the news by standing for the ideals the University values. To be clean; to be cheerful; to be charitable; to be courageous; to be patient; to be wise; to wiser heads; in all, to serve to the students; to help the students of the University.
FRIDAY, OCT. 3, 1919.
Many students appear more worries about how they are to stand on Fourteenth Street when the first snow comes than how they will stand in their studies.
ALBERT OF BELGIUM
Albert of Belgium, ever the servant of his people, brings the thanks of his nation to the people of the United States.
His visit is the signal for reflection. We are reminded of the early days of the war when this leader of men at the head of his little army, caused all the world to wonder. We recall also the courageous part of Belgian civilians in the grim struggle—the ugly stories of atrocities, the deportations—the Belgium of which Brand Whitlock has told so well.
But more than this, we think of King Albert personally commanding his army through the years at the northern end of the battle line, winning his way stronger and stronger into the hearts of his countrymen. He suffered with them and for them, and by his unfalling loyalty and perseverance, they understood that he was prepared to die for them.
The old slogan, "See America First," has been revised with the accent on the last word.
And this is the man who has come to our country with the mission of his people. He will visit our cities, and people will crowd to see him. For he is Albert, the king of the Belgians.
A CHOICE OF EVILS
The testimony of Judge E. H. Gary before the Senate labor committee reveals nothing new in the attitude of capital toward union labor. His refusal to treat in any way with the strikers is merely a pursuance of the old policy of insisting in the right of capital to maintain the open shop, while not admitting the usefulness and constructive possibilities of organized labor.
In view of the succession of victories which the labor unions have won over the open shop in past years, it is hard to see how the steel industry could hope to emerge victorious from the present crisis by continuing a defeated policy. If it wins, victory can come only because public opinion is beginning to resent so serious a disturbance as the steel strike represents. The strike has come at the wrong time to please what might otherwise have been a sympathetic public. The steel workers have struck not only in opposition to the President of the United States—they have struck without regard to the advice of the president of the American Federation of Labor. What is more vial, they have struck in one of the most critical periods of our history, the beginning of the reconstruction, which depends for its success on increased production and industrial space.
The failing of the labor unions however, does not materially strengthen the force for capital, whose failure to bring anything new into their opposition, whose failure to present other than timeworn rebuttals to the appeals of working men, may well mean defeat. From an unwanted and unwarranted strike on the part of the steel workers, to which the public can hardly lend its sympathy, it has only a choice of supporting capital with its reactionary, blind and wholly impossible oposition. Not to recognize the social and economic progress of a half century of unionism, which constitutes a record unparalleled in the history of labor, will defeat any industrial organization that denifies it, f not at this time, the next.
One should not be hasty in condemning the men who robbed a student on Ohio Street. Maybe, they were being backtracked by their landlady.
Campus Opinion
Editor, The Daily Kansan;
A casual observer, standing any where on the campus at the time when the students are going from one class to another, might easily decide the University needed a traffic policeman. There are a larger number of automobiles on the campus this year than in the previous rollment. With only ten minutes between classes to go from one building to another, congestion is bound to occur where a long line of motor cars and a longer line of students are hurrying back and forth. Often times the student is held up while the cars pass.
The number of students who have automobiles is small compared to those who walk laboriously up the Hill each morning and there is small justification in a few holding back a large crowd. But a short time to go from one class to another. Very few of the students are in favor of allowing motor cars on the campus. The danger of accidents is considerable unless the motorists exercise extreme caution. The way they drive across the campus is a dangerous practice, and may result in accident if not curbed.

Editor The Daily Kansan:—
I think your suggestion that the freshmen women be required to wear some distinguishing mark is very appropriate. I suggest that the freshman woman be required to wear their hair braided in the back. This will enable them to save the extra time required to fluff their hair.
R. E. M.
The men will not object, I am sure,
for it will enable them to learn
whether the modern woman really
has a forehead and two ears.

"Why do they call Broadway 'The Great White Way'?" asked the visitor.

LIVING UP TO ITS NAME
Write one little word, and only one.
And feel life's work in earth well
done:
THE UNIVEVRSAL CREED
'd dip into the fount of love, and with a golden pen
done!
For every heart would speak to me
I'll hear you sound perfect.
If I could write one little word upon the hearts of men,
The angel wing would sting a song, the sweetest ever heard.
if they could read in human hearts this precious little word;
precious little word;
For kindly thoughts and deeds
Are better far than crowns and
creed;
In these the angel throng would see Child of Eternity.
A man would need no other creed to
make him more life-like. are
f he embarks in the ark of true Fraternity;
For love divine would clasp his hand
and lead him to the promised land
Love for his fellowman would be
His passport to Eternity.

The Ohio State Lantern announced that upperclassmen will begin their annual task of "taming the freshmen" October 6.
Fairmount College at Wichita has an enrollment of 103 men. Of this number one hundred are members of the R. O. T. C.
At a special chapel to greet the freshmen at Northwestern University all faculty members appeared in caps and gowns.
Harvard is making a drive for a permanent endowment fund of 11 million dollars. One thousand Harvard students are in teams to carry on the work.
The Observer Review carries a notice to all freshmen to get their caps and specifying that they must be wearing them. The purchase price is $2.
Cornell University enrollment began September 29. A football squad of thirty-six is already at work preparing for the first game of the season. The game will be October 4, with Oberlin.
The first year men are not the only ones designated for attention at the Ohio State University. They must show it equally or unequally with the freshmen women who have been ordered by the Sophomore women, to obey a number of rules, one of which is that they must on all occasions be a completeness place, a baw of green ribbon large enough to be seen easily.

The State of Massachusetts and the city of Boston have faced and met a situation of unprecedented menace, and they have met it with high courage and a firm grasp of those fundamental principles without which government by the people must perish from the earth. The strike of the teachers on June 24 caused the staff correspondent of The Outlook on another page. It will be sufficient if we state here our conception of the issues involved.
We believe in industrial democracy. We believe in the right of collective bargaining.
We believe in the right of every man and woman to a living wage and decent conditions of work.
Governor Coolidge of Massachusetts and Commissioner Curtis of Boston have declared that the striking police of Boston are to be treated as deserters and never to be permitted to travel outside which they have abandoned to disorder. For the sake not only of Biston but of the fundamental structure of our Government we hope that nothing will ever induce the public authorities of Massachusetts to recede from this position. The issues involved in the case must be considered "must be required on this line if it takes all summer"—The Outlook.
But we emphatically believe that no citizen who has entered the service of the State as a guardian of public safety has any right, moral or legal, to turn over to thugs and criminals the community intruded to him for protection, as a means of remedy the conditions of his employment. Pillicerum incupy the position if sentences in the battle line between civilized and barbarous life. If demolition from such post of duty, they merit the reprobation meted out to those who desert from the military service in time of war.

The doctrine that Johnson is preaching "that no khaki-clad boys of ours will be sent to fight in foreign lands," he insisted, a slogan, "He kept us out of war."
