Frank Hagny, Lamar
plumber, relates this experience
while plumbing in St. Louis: eve
went down to brewery one day
to repair one of the soo-barrel
tanks The tank was full of beer
and | told the man in charge that
I didn't believe we could make the
repairs until the tank was empty.
| suggested that we come back be-
fore it was filled next time and do
the work. He said no, there was
NO use to wait. He'd just turn the
beer into the sewer, and out went
the FIVE hundred barrels of amber
colored juice. Maybe you think my
eyes didn't stick out when | saw
that amount of beer wasted.

Every year the state university
officials have to go down to JEFF
fcrson City and get down on their
knees for the university's pittance
from the legislature. At times the
allowance is absolutely too small to
cover more than the barest neces-
sites It's humiliating position
to force education'S best friends
into, and is a grand t-handed
advertisement for old Missouri
that the friends of education are
forced to decend to common lob
bying to keep on an educational
level with other states. The elev-
enth amendment, which will be
voted on Nov Sth, provides rem
cdy for this evil by giving the uni.
versity a regular income from the
taxes of the state. Not an addi-
tional tax, mind you, for if the
mill tax carries the inheritance
tax, the present source of income
will be abandoned. The carrying
of the eleventh amendment simply
means that, without feeling the
expense at all, Missourians will
take their university out of poll
tics, elevate it to the level of othel
state universities, and pay its in

Of the eleven proposed amend
ments that will appear on the bal
lot this fall onlyst@o' are attract
ing any attention to speak of.
That is tantamount to saying the
nine others will be defeated, for
there's tremendous number of
voters in this state as we'll as else
where who shut their eyes and vote
NO on every proposed constitu-
tional amendment. The only
thing that can pass such an amend
ment is plenty of publicity, and
both the amendments in question
are getting tons of printers ink
spilled over them, which with
their inherent worth may get them
through, Every progressive Mis-
sourian with an ounce of brains
under his hat wants to see the uni
versity taken out of politics, and
at least fair per .cent want the
state made dry. Whether that
means a majority for them at the
polls remains to be seen. But the
other amendments are hopelessly
defeated before the polls open
Whether they are good amend
ments or not makes no difference
Nobody has raised q row ovel
them, and. to all purposes, nobody
will vote for them.
