Corn Day emphasizes Near East relief via Kansas farmers
Saturday next week is corn day as farmers in the state haul corn to central points for Near East relief through county farm bureaus. The effort helps victims in the Near East when cash gifts are inconvenient, valuing corn as a low priced, wide reaching aid. General Pershing criticizes slow disarmament progress noting lessons from Napoleonic wars and the persistent belief that war remains the only solution for crisis.

Proposal to fund a new high school through bonds in Lawrence
The writer argues Lawrence should weigh bond funding for a new high school against tax burdens. Lower costs in coming years and rising material prices now favor delaying by one to two years. Suggestions include expanding existing schools Carden McAllister and Central to absorb overflow, transferring parts of Central to McAllister, and keeping total expenses within one year’s bonds.
