A. C. Hildner's theme in his address delivered in the Natural Science auditorium yesterday after- noon. Professor Hildner, who visited Germany the early part of this year talked about the general conditions of economics, drama and university life as they impressed him. Professor Hildner said that the German student can live on $45 per month if necessary but the American student will find expenses as high as he finds them in Ann Arbor and then he will not have the conveniences he is accustomed to. Eighty-nine Ameri- can students were at the German uni- versities in 1925, out of a total en- rollment of 3760 foreign students. He also added that if the American stu- dent has a sufficient knowledge of German to understand the lectures he may easily enter the German univer- sities. Professor Hildner was very much attracted by the plays he attended while in Germany. Shakespeare is very popular there as well as modern writers which included Bernard Shaw, John Galsworthy and our owl Ameri- can playwright Eugene O'Neiil. The opera is still popular in Germany, he explained, evidently they are still as 1 I 3 r C I E i r I E I , i E . , I 1 .r I t f i i Pennsylvania Still Holds Slush Fund Record t It a 1 II STUDENTS IN JOURNALISM ASKED TO (CONSULTr JONES I Change in the arrangements 1for the trip of journalism classes to Detroit to visit the plant of the Detroit News developed un- expectedly late yesterday after- noon, and students plannijig to make the trip are requested to meet with Howard P.

CHICAGO, August 4.-Defiance was flung at the Senate campaign funds i committee today by Samuel Insull, multi-millionaire public utilities exe- cutive of Chicago, and Robert E Crowe, state attorney for Cook county. Both repeatedly refused to answer a certain question concerning cam- paign contributions in the recent Illi- nois primaries. After making the rec- ord, Senator Reed, Democrat of Miss- ouri, chairman, told Insull that his case would be reported to the Senate. Crowe was told th'at the committee !would take his case under advisement. "I am unable to understand how a public official would refuse to tell where he got money for a political campaign," the Missourian said "We will let you know later what we will do about it." Ira C. Copley, newspaper publisher of Aurora, Illinois, testified that he had disposed of a public utility last January and that he made his contri- butions totaling $25,000 to the suc- cessful Senatorial campaign of Frank ;L. Smith, chairman of the state com- merce commission, after the commis- sion had approved rate increases for his companies last November 11. Judge Edmund K. Jarecki of the Cook county court told of the use of gunmen during the primary and said a recount of votes in the Republican senatorial contest in two wards showed such discrepancies as to in- dicate prearranged fraud. Frank L. Smith, filed with the com- mittee a long statement denying he had obligated himself to any person on account of assistance given to him during the campaign. Chairman Reed and Mr. Insull had a long good humored sparring match The exchanges between the fiery Mis- sourian and the state's attorney were less jovial. Senator Reed plainly showed his displeasure as Crowe steadfastly refused to say whether In- sull had given him any part of tie money which he insisted had gone di- reetly to the support of Smith. The committee had information that Insull had given an additional $10,000 to Crowe himself, but neither the public utilities magnate nor the Mtate attor- ney would admit it, each refusing the question. Before leaving the stand, Insull made a speech against the wort court and entangling alliances, disclosing that he was a naturalized citizen, having been born in England, and contended that since he had bought $650,000,000 worth of property in Illinois, he ought to have some voice in affairs.
