...danger much greater than appreciated by most physicians. President Herman X. Bundesen of Chicago's Board of Health arranged for a nationwide radio broadcast to warn and instruct the country. Some authorities believe that one in every ten or 20 persons harbors dysentery parasites. The disease may recur long after an apparent cure. Applicants for food-handling jobs should be examined several times, required to keep themselves thoroughly clean. Those who have had the disease should be examined once a month for four months, every six months thereafter for the rest of their lives...
...Republicans of the Reconstruction Era, that race feeling by no means applies to whites alone. On this issue, no compromise is possible. Mixed juries will result in innumerable disagreements regardless of the defendant's guilt or race; all the terrorism which has blighted the tradition of the South must recur with undiminished zeal. An even greater degree of injustice is a high price to pay for the conversion of nominal rights into real rights, if their exercise is more than ineffectual...
Apart from its special features, Yale's problem is that of every large university situated in a small city. Especially in times of depression, the demand that the universities forego, in whole or part, their special privileges, is bound to recur.

But with disturbing remembrance of similar demonstrations at baseball games last spring suddenly came a shower of editorial comment from our contemporaries, which aroused us to a realization that this "lapse" is widespread. At Oregon University, Yale, Brown, Columbia and numerous others, undergraduate and alumni editors are "viewing with alarm...
...move from old quarters to new was the greatest cause of the deficit's increase. That expense will not recur. And the new building has 21 floors of office space from which rentals are calculated to help defray the expenses of the big auditorium downstairs where, too, the increased number of seats means bigger takings at the box office. Last season 306,018 persons paid to see the curtain rise, compared to 272,006 in the old house the year before. Receipts totaled $1,230,224 as against $948,469 in 1928-29. Average price of tickets rose 53?...
