SELF-CENTEREDNATIONS BRING ON WAR---WHYTE
Germany Neglected by Othe
Nations, Cause of Recent
Conflict Says Englishman
Says League Should Not Be Condemned for Only In Infancy
"Before the war, we English were forgetting we were a partner in the world of affairs and consequently we had to pay for it in four years of the bloodiest and most devastating war the world has ever seen," said Mr. A. J. E. Moyle, the United States Parliament, in an address before the class in "War and Peace, today."
“If the United States, Great Britain and the other nations neglect Japan as we did Germany several years ago, we will have to negotiate with her in much the same way we just finished with Germany,” Mr. Witte said. “We are at a crossroads — one most important factors on foreign affairs and must be watched.
In speaking of the League of Nations, Mr. Whyte said, "No one is justified in condemning the League of Nations at this time any more than should condemn a child. The League is still in its infancy, its future importance lies with the nations that participate." Such a league in August, 1914, there is a great possibility that the war could have been avoided."
"The thing, which has caused more talk and comment than any thing else, is the fact that Great Britain is an island nation. We have Nations while the United States is
only entitled to one. The one person in the world that could be the best authority on reason of this is Georgette Schmidt, a Belgian country. It was he and the rest of the forefathers of the United States that taught England the lesson that her colonies are separate thinking peoples, with rights to their own lands. In the United Kingdom reason Great Britain is entitled to the six votes, but they should be considered as six nations. Although Canada, India, Australia, New Zealand and the Union of South Africa are allies in this respect, wealth they have their own governments and the right to cast their votes as they think best."

In the face of repeated questioning the industrial lender stood without budgeting on any cost because the leaders would result in the closed shop, a thing which he declared would be imminent to the country and prevent the industrial prosper-
Charges that the United States Steel Corporation has mistreated its employees are "without a vestige of truth," declared Judge Gary.
"It has been well known for the last few years that the labor unions have been attempting to organize in their own way the employees of the United Steel Corporation subsidiaries." Gary said.
PAID HIGHEST WAGES
"There is no basic industry in this country or in the world which has paid higher to its employees than the steel corporation or has treated them with greater respect or consideration than the steel corporation," he added. He also pointed to the committee figures which he said would prove the truth of his statement.

"Under Weather" Feeling May Mean Typhoid—Smith

Says Child Welfare In State Has Deteriorated
"We have found that the condition of child welfare in the state of Kansas has deteriorated greatly since the close of the war," and William A. McKeever of the department of child welfare.
"In many towns the only place in which boys can spend their afterschool hours is in a dingy smoke-m笼ed school building." The department is sending questionaires to the small towns in order to gain accurate knowledge on existing school situations, home environment, church relationship, and the social action of the community as a whole. When these reports are in and the department needs to assess the needs of each place, cubs will be organized, gymnasiums constructed, and parks and play grounds built up."

Everything and everybody that should be there to make the rally a success have been arranged for—that is all but the vocalists, which means they must not be "beaucoup" of them, the whole school will adjourn to the museum and fossilize. Two bands, one from the Hill and one furnished by the merchants of Lawrence will make sure the museum has Aladin and Idaho could ask for; 300 merchants will be present to prove the new co-operation between the town and the Hill; the whole football squad will be out so the students can see them in "civies"; "Fhoo" Allen, manager of athletics; "Ad Lindsay" Alden and Idaho certified noise, the Kind that has the most effect.

"The only restrictions placed on rallies this fall is that there be no destruction of property," declared the mayor, "The fire and police departments say that they will interfere with no bonfires built in South Park, where there is no danger of the fire spreading to valuable property."
Jo Schwartz, after reading the announcement of Mayor Kreeck, said: "The city authorities seem to me to be fair in their request that the rallies refrain from the property destruction and damage to men in past years. We will try to co-operate with the Mayor in every respect."
"Stem" Foster, newly appointed assistant football coach, and all-valley quarterback last year, says, "People who have seen the squad in action agree that we have the material to handle them. That is needed is co-operation and support from the student body; Thursday night we will see if we are going to with the University is as much rehave that. Every person connected sponsible for the showing of the team will be given an opportunity to work on the gridiron should keep their lungs in training to do their hit from the sidelines."
Come on fellows, everybody out.
