Southern Soldiers' Valor
Aided Confederate Image

To the slavery-based Southern
Confederacy, birth and doom
came hand-in-hand. And only the
valor of its soldiers gave respecti-
bility to its unworthy cause and
unity in its defeat.
This analysis came from Prof.
Dwight L. Dumond, of the history
department, in the eighth lecture
commemerating the War Between
the States sponsored by the Sum-
mer Session on Thursday.
Slaveholders never quite estab-
lished a confederacy of slave
states. Prof. Dumond explained,
because "nations are not born in
such fashion; and the rebellion
against federal authority never
DIAL NO 2-6264 y

achieved sufficient maturity, unity,
or respectability to give it na-
tional status."
Possess Some Virtues
The Confederate soldier and
some of his West Point trained
commanders with great bravery
and endurance, however, gave re-
spectibility to an unworthy cause,
a tradition of unity where none
existed, and a respectable name
to a composite of dissent, he said.
Prof. Dumond pointed out that
John C. Calhoun's theories of de-
centralization and local autonomy
were well-suited to break up a
nation but ill-suited for building
one, much less conducting a war.
There was dissension in the slave
states from the first over seces-
sion and economic rivalry.
Many Conflicts
Some slave states furnished
more men to the Union than to
the Confederate armies. Confed-
erate leaders disagreed many
times.
Such conflict "confirms that
popular excitement of 1860-61 in
the slave states had been decep-
tive. There was no war party, and
the people would not have voted
for secession had they anticipated
war," Prof. Dumond said.

SKEPTICAL:
Congress
Sets 'Look'
At Corps
The Peace Corps claims it will
cost $40 million for the United
States to have 3,000 volunteers
overseas or ready for assignment
by next July.
The agency plans to ask Con-
gress for the money as part of
legislation to establish the pro-
gram to send Americans abroad
to helptraise living standards in
have-not nations.
Peace Corps officials say they
are prepared for a "hard look"
from a skeptical Congress at their
fund requests.
Face Problems
The agency, which is authorized
to accept contributions from pub-
lic spirited citizens, may face
some very real money problems if
Congress decides to be stingy.For
so far, only $34 has been donated.
It estimates that an average of
$9,180 will be needed to train and
maintain a volunteer abroad for
one year.
Of this amount, $2,900 will be
spent for "indirect overhead cost"
that includes the expenses of the
Washington headquarters and
overseas field ofices, an agency
spokesman said.
Spend $2 Million
The Peace Corps already has
spent nearly $2 million even
though not one volunteer has left
United States soil. Scores are in
training, however, and the first
group of 70 is scheduled to depart
for Ghana early in September.
Others are preparing to do road
survey work in Tanganyika, help
Chile and Colombia develop rural
areas and teach school in the
Philippines.
R. Sargent Shriver, President
John F. Kennedy's brother-in-law
who heads the program, now has
a staff of 203 full-time employes
and 43 temporary workers or part-
time consultants.
Divert Funds
Money diverted from the Mutual
Security Fund has kept the Peace
Corps in business since it was
founded last March 1. About a
quarter-million dollars remain of
the $2 million allocated by the
President to get things started.
Volunteers, who will receive al-
lowances for food and clothing and
get free medical care, will be paid
$75 a month in a lump sum after
they complete their service over-
seas.
A Peace Corps official said 3,-
750 persons would be in training
next summer. This is necessary to
produce 3,000 qualified volunteers
because of the tough weeding-out
process, he said.
MSU Names
New Director
For Center
Michigan State University's La-
bor-Industry Center - criticized
as excessively pro-labor - hasap-
pointed a new assistant director
in charge of personnel manage-.
ment and program services.
Daniel H.CKruger, a former as-
sistant to Center Director Jack.
Stieber, assumed his new duties
yesterday.rHe replaces Charles A.
Rogers, fired last month after his
name appeared in an article that
criticized the "slanted" practices
of the center.

Sen. Lynn 0. Francis Jr. R-
Midland) made the charges. He is
chairing a Senate investigation
into the matter.
MSU Provost Paul A. Miller said
Kruger is well qualified to handle
the management side of the cen-
ter though he has served as Stie-
ber's assistant for only "two or
three years".
Kruger worked "for a short
while" in the management sec-
tion with Rogers in 1957.
"Kruger's work recently has
been chiefly in management and
personnel programs of public
agencies," Miller said. "He has
been giving leadership on per-
sonnel and management programs
to federal and state agencies, in
training and evaluation pro-
grams."
Rogers was fired "for not doing
the job we expected him to do,"
Miller claimed.
Sen. Francis is expected to be-
gin his investigation of the center
next month.

A retiring University professor'
received "thanks" from one of his
18,000 former students yesterday
with a check for $10,000.
Prof. Preston W. Slosson, a
member of the history department
for 46 years, formally received the
gift from Leo T. Northville, a Chi-
cago attorney who graduated from
the law school in 1932.
Norville said he wished to pro-
vide the money to Prof. Slosson
"as a token of the appreciation
of his many students" taught at
the University.
He presented the check from a

Problems
"Don't aim at the moon --the
Russians will beat you there any-
way," Michigan artists were told
Thursday at the University's Re-
gional Art Conference.
"Just be satisfied to sit on your
own clothespost. This is probably
as high as you will climb," James
A. Schwalbach, University of Wis-
consin extension specialist in art
and design, told his audience of
more than 100 painters. Their
work is on exhibit in the Rack-
ham galleries through Aug. 3.
"I would like to suggest that
you decide what is important to
you and then ask you tolive by
it," Schwalbach said. "Seek: a
style and solution to your prob-
lem that is as distinctive to you
as your handwriting but more
meaningful.
Urges Dynamism
"Never be static," he urged.
"Things are always changing.
Your art should reflect the times
in which you live.
"Visit exhibits. See other pic-
tures but go with an open mind.
Be ready both to question and ac-
cept. Change your teachers fairly
frequently. Look particularly for
teachers who upset you.

the Regents at their June meet-
ing, and came to campus for the
formal presentation at yesterday's
tea in Clements Library. Univer-
sity President Harlan Hatcher and
other administrative officials and
faculty members attended the
presentation.
Norville -said he was inspired by
Prof. Slosson's& lectures between
1927 and 1932. "I was so stim-
ulated that I have been reading
history ever since," he said. He
has bone on to read all the works
of Churchill and Will Durant, and
is presently "completing the mon-
umental tasks of reading Toyn-
bee's works."
Prof. Slosson-whose retirement
furlough began June 30-express-
ed hope that "many deserving
professors will be rewarded sim-
ilarly by their students.
Daughters Take Courses
Norville's two daughters, Nancy,
'61Ed, and Martha, '63, have also
had courses from Prof. Slosson.
One of the University's best
known teachers, Prof. Slosson is
now teaching summer school
classes. He will hold the Eppley
Chair at the Culver Military Acad-
emy next year.
"The gift of Mr. Norville is a
fitting tribute to a brilliant teach-
er," Prof. John Bowditch, chair-
man of the history department,
said. "Prof. Slosson has the kind of
unique personality that cannot be
replaced. He will be sorely missed
when he retires."
Wrote History Texts
Prof. Slosson, who received his
degrees from Columbia University,
has written more than a dozen
history books, many of which are
used as texts throughout the coun-
try,
He served as assistant librarian
of the State Department's Ameri-
ican Commission to Negotiate
Peace during World War L.
Previous to his appointment
here, he taught at Columbia and
was a literary editor of the New
York Independent, 1917 and1920-
21. He has done radio broadcast-
ing since 1941 and at present has
a news commentary program on
