UNIVERSITY
HIRES SIX
ATTORNEYS

ST. LOuIs-The University OF
Missouri is evidently expecting q
hard battle over the suit of Lloyd
Gaines TO enter its school Of law
because six eminent attorneys have
been retained to argue against NJ.
A. A. G. p. lawyers who viii be
fighting for Gaines.
The university lawyers INCLUDE
Messrs. Cave and Hulen of Column
'pr-gri; Judge Feed J., Will
aaa 'eorce C, wilson CT ST.
K ". NcOayid, spring
EiolA S. Hogsett'
This array of legal talent indi-
Gates how important the case
looms in the minds Of Missourians.
This lineup is similar to the case
which the y. A. a. c. p. hr0u s4t
Carolina in 1888 when the state
used its attorney general, the first
assistant attorney general and
three professors from the law
school of the University of North
Carolina.
Against the six Missouri lawyers
will be Sidney r. Redmond OF the
st. Louis N. A. A. G. p, and Charles
IT. Houston Of the national office
Of the N. A. A. G. P. in New York.
The hearing is set or May 20.
Gaines. a resident of St Louis
and a graduate of Lincoln univer-
sir at Jefte"sHn City, Miss ,uri,
applied to enter the law school OF
the University of Missouri locat-
ed at Columbia. His application
was denied. He then filed suit to
compel the university to admit
him. The basis for this suit is the
same as that used successfully "a
gainst the University Of Maryland.
The N. A. A. G. p. is contending
that the University Of Missouri is
a public unsupported institution
which provides graduate and pro-
fessional training for white stu
dents only and that this procedure
is contrary to the Constitution.
The N. A. A. G. P. points out that
even though the schools of law are
separate by law, no provision is
made separately for giving Ne
groes graduate and professional
training.

 "We are bringing home to 5000 1000 housewives in the States what Canned Salmon means to them. We want Alaskans to real ize what it means to them too. Canned Salmon has to compete on the market of the world with many highly advertised foods. Sometimes it has been successful. Sometimes it hasn't. Prices have often fallen to the point where companies have gone broke, men have been thrown out of employ ment bills have not been paid. We want to build up a steady de- pendable market for salmon. This will steady operation and employ ment. It will benevt the indus try. It will also benevt the busi- ness men and workers of Alaska.
 Canned Salmon advertising in the national women's and farm er's magazines is going to create greater interest in Alaska itself. It will bring people to Alaska. It

HOME TOWN AMBITION

The success of a young man de-
pends very much on. whether he has
ambition or not. If he is Indifferent
whether he gets ahead or not, he
will not probably go far. 1t takes
hustle and energy and a hope for
better things.
1t is the same with town. If its
people are Indifferent whether they
make progress or not, they are prac-
tically sure not to make any. Unless
you can stir in their hearts the hope
to develop into a community with
bigger business, more opportunity.
and better institutions, it is likely to
stagnate. If it people cherish an
ambition to have it develop into a
more prosperous community, and
will work for that end, it can be
realized.

DIVRRTNG THE YOUNG CROWD

When young people do things con-
sidered questionable or dangerous,
there are two ways of correcting
them. The first is to forbid their
doing these things. The second is
to give them something wholesome
or unobjectionable, which they like
as well or better.
The University of Iowa, with in
sight into human nature, is trying
the latter expedient. In order to
give its students home town enter
tainment, and keep them away from
possible perils during the weekend,
it has opened a university night club
There are youngsters can dance, but
only soft drinks are served.
In the old years when students
went to college because they were
eager to study Latin and Greek and
history, such expedients to keep
them on the campus were not re-
quired. You could hardly tear them
away from the beloved books and
the midnight oil under which they
were studying them. Homes have
changed since those solemn old days.
Modern young people are tinglng
with activity, and if turned loose al
most anywhere in the United States,
their chances for getting into trouble
are quite abundant. They have be-
come more so since so many of them
obtained possession of automobiles
or the money to hire them. When
recitations close for the weekend,
many campuses remind one of the
forlorn scenes of Goldsmith's DE
serted Village"
Young people who are looking for
trouble, can find it anywhere. The
serpent of wrong desire has been
known to enter even a church. Most
young people who seek an education
mean well, and simply need a safety
valve for high spirits. Very likely
the plan adopted by this Iowa in
stitution has provided a good one.

THE INCREASE OF JOBS

The government figures show that
100000 more people have found
work in non-agricultural industries
during the past year. While that is
not quite the rapid gain the people
had hoped for, it means steady prog
ress on conquering what is left of
the depression. Now the people ask
will that gain continue?"
This gain in manufacturing and
mercantile industries may be partly
offset by some loss of jobs in agri-
culture. The government experts
have held that the farmers were
growing more products than could
be sold. They argue that as the
manufacturer cuts his production
when he can't sell his goods, so agri-
culture must do. the same thing. But
when the farmer let's some of his
acres lie idle, he doesn't need so
much help. He and the wife and
the children may be able to do the
whole thing in many cases. That
turns a considerable number of men
loose to look for work.
The 100000 more people who
have gone to work in factories and
stores find their purchasing power
so they can buy more
-hings. That ought to provide work
,or a new group of people.
The money, like the music, should
90 round and round. AS long as it
keeps circulating, it keeps people
AS industrial equipment,
etc. wear out, more
people are put to work to replace
hese gaps. The circulation of mon
y is hindered by reckless specuIa-
ion, the fear of future calamities,
md failures of business concerns
md banks. The government should
business, so it will have
aith to expand its operations, but it
hould discourage speculative ex-
.esses that might cause a repetition
# the 1929 disaster.

YOUR CHRISTMAS SEALS

One more word of hope should be
said about the purchase of Christ
mas seals. The campaign against
the terrible disease of tuberculosis,
which has been carried on through
funds obtained by the sale of these
seals, is one of humanity's greatest
triumphs.
The Bible said: "The last enemy
that shall be destroyed is death"
Our wonderful scientists and phy-
sicians have gone a long way to-
ward fulfilling that hope as respects
T B, since the death rate from this
cause has been reduced nearly two
thirds.
Yet somewhere around $4,000 peo-
pie are still dying annually from
this disease in this country. Mil
lions of people do not know how to
avoid this plague. The Christmas
seals provide the funds to enable
them to do so. Shall we refuse to
hear the call of all such sufferers
for help?

MHY PE0PLE cHANaE IORs

One. Of the big problems in oper-
ating the new social security law is
found in the great number of peo-
pie who change from one job to an
other. There are said to be 100000
who make such changes each month.
It is going to be a tremendous prop
OsitiOn to keep track of all these
folks who keep changing around.
Also such changes are costly to
somebody.
1t takes time to break in new
workers. Their mistakes and spoil
age add to the cost of production.
These changes are costly to the
workers too, who usually have to
stick to some job for quite a time If
they are going to make their ser
vices valuable.
Many such changes must have oc-
CURED because workers had irregu-
lar employment. They took job
somewhere else, in the hopes that
work would be steadier. Yet such
changes in employment also take
place rapidly even when business is
good. In prosperous times, a skilled
worker has the feeling that he can
get a job anywhere. This often
tempts him to make a change that
does him no good.
Perhaps many changes occur be-
cause employees are Indifferent and |
Retail stores take on |
young people hoping they will show
the intelligence, courtesy and enthu-
siasm necessary in this work. When
some folks fail to do so, the boss con-
cludes the room they take up is
worth more than their services.
Many employers and foremen prob
ably lack sufficient patience to train

CAMPAIGN MONEY

The great. sum of $1S,OOO,OOO is
said to have been expended on the
recent political campaign. Various
plans are offered to control such ex-
penditures. Among them, A. S.
Burleson, former postmaster gen.
eral, has offered suggestions for a
new law, which would place severe
penalties an anyone who contributes
more than $25,OOO to a single politi-
cal campaign.
Probably too much money was

viii the worlds Fascists fight the
Communists and Socialists? If they
do, will the United States be involved
in such a direful calamity2
The alliance recently announced
between Germany and Japan, the
purpose of which as stated is to de-
fend those countries against Com
munism, has started the war clouds
to boiling up once more.
Spain is being reduced to misery
by Communist Fascist war. France
is in turmoil owing to class hatred.
Germany, Italy, and Japan are firm
ly determined to put down cOmmun-
ism, while Russia is firmly determin-
ed to uphold it. II ever there was
a powder magazine ready to blow
up, here is one ready for a grand
explosion.
It behOOves the American people
to watch out and keep their fingers
crossed. They don't have to fight
if they don't want to. If the guns
begin to shoot. our people would
better carry on their activities out
side the reach Of those weapons.

THE WAR DEBTS

There have been recent sugges-
/ tions in both France and Italy that
those countries might do something
toward payment Of the debts which
they owe the United States. All
debts owed by Europe with interest
accrued now amount to something
over $4,000, 100000. II these debtors
could make regular payments, il
would be a lift TO Uncle Sans de-
pleted treasury.
When the American people loaned
these countries that money, there
was no suggestion that it would not
be paid back in full. Those govern
ments had good credit, and had al
ways paid their debts, and it was
considered sure they would make
good on this loan.
The war reduced those nations to
an exhaustion such as has not been
seen before since Napoleon Bona
parte ravaged Europe more than 100
years ago. With many unemployed
in those countries, and fears of war
again rising to fever pitch, it is per-
haps not surprising that they feel
poor.
Such feelings are not good excuses
for failure to pay just debts, unless
nations wish to be considered bank
rupt. Their claim is that the United |
States and its allies were engaged |
in a mutual attempt to defend them
selves against Germany. and as our
losses in man power were far less
than theirs. our country should take
a bigger share of the financial bur
den.
That excuse is not generally con-
sidered good in America. Anyway.
when people fail to pay their debts,
It hurts their credit. If those coun-
-ries want to borrow money in Amer
ca, they would better make some
1ffer which the United States gov
srnment will accept. And if such
pliers are made, it may be better for
1ur people to make reasonable con-
rather than get nothing
1t all.

ONE WAY WITH DRUNK DRIVERS

The Russian idea of how to deal
with drunken automobile drivers
was illustrated when an intoxicated
man recently drove his truck
through a safety zone in Moscow,
killing two persons and injuring
eight others. 1t was shortly an
nOunced that he had been executed.
In a country that applies so ter
rible a penalty, automobile drivers
will do some thinking before they
lose self control. The punishment
should fit the crime, and the mod
ern world believes in mercy. The
American people will never impose
such a penalty for an act which a
person did not mean to commit. Yet
if people are continually killed by
drunken drivers, such offenders will
be made to suffer more severely than
they have in many places.

PEACE FOR AL AMERICA

President Roosevelt, in his address
before the inter-American conference
at Buenos Aires, spoke strongly of
the necessity of preserving peace
among all the nations of the Ameri-
can continent. With that appeal, all
our people are heartily in sympathy.
While we all indorse this idea, how
shall peace be preserved, if two
countries on this continent are de-
termined to fight each other? And
if they persist in doing so, will the
American people want to do anything
about it?
Two of those South American
countries, Bolivia and Paraguay, re-
Gently carried on a bitter conflict,
with heavy losses of life and threat
to their financial stability. Efforts
were made by other American coun-
tries, including the United States, to
induce these warriors to stop fight
ing. While these hOstilities have
ceased for the time being, they last
ed long time, and probably stopped
only because the two warning ma
tions were completely exhausted by
the struggle.
The nations of this continent might
form League similar to the League
OF Nations, for the purpose of main
tanning peace on this continent. But
il the American people were asked
to send an army or navy to prevent
any of these countries from fight
ing, they would probably refuse to
interfere. Certainly no movement
was started to send an army to stop
Bolivia and Paraguay, when they
were mauling each other so terrif-
fcally.
The American people are sick and
tired of wars. They will do every
thing they can to encourage peace,
but when it comes to sending any
army to thrash some trouble making
country, they have tried that once
and got their fingers severely burn
ed. They still feel the sting of these
injuries. The burnt child, they say,
breads the fire.

THE PARTY ORGANIZATIONS

People often become disgusted
with the old political parties in
such an election as the one just fin
ished, and say we need to smash
both the old parties, and attach our
selves to new ones, in which all the
good people shall line up together.
The faults of the two old parties
are not due to these organizations,
but to the weakness and selfshness
of human nature. When one good
man wants free spending, and an
other equally honest wants rigid
economy, how are you going to har-
ness together two horses that are so
pulling in opposite directions?
