Peculiar Coincidence Occurs in Law

Due to Close of Factories in War
Infested Region of
Europe
'
New York, Mar. 23.-People wishing
their purchases wrapped up will soon
pay extra if the present drain on the
paper market increases at the rate
at which it has been during the past
few months.
The rapid increase in the price of
paper is due to the shortage of raw
materials for its manufacture owing to
the present war. Almost all the paper
factories in the war infested region
have closed and Europe is looking to
this country for its supply. One of
our large factories, whose output is
100 tons per day, recently contracted
to send its entire product to the Ger-
man government, and it is known that
a number of other factories have been
approached with similar contracts.
William C. Redfield, secretary of
commerce, has recently sent out bul-
letins calling the attention' of the peo-
ple in general to the value of rags and
old paper and the necessity for sav-
ing such hitherto almost worthless ar-
,ticles. It reads as follows:
"Something like 15,000 tons of dif-
ferent kinds of paper and paper board
are manufactured every day in the
United States and a large portion of
this, after it has served its purpose,
could be used over again in some class
of paper. A large portion of it, how-
-ever, is either burned or otherwise
wasted. This, of course, has to be re-
placed by new materials. In the
early days of the paper industry, pub-
licity was given to the importance of
saving rags. It is of scarcely less im-
portance now. The Department of
Commerce is glad to bring this matter
to the attention of the public in the
hope that practical results may flow
from it. A little attention to the sav-
ing of rags and old papers will mean
genuine relief to our paper industry
and will diminish the drain upon the
sources of supply for our raw ma-
terials."
Honolulu, Hawaii, is the scene of an
interesting court dispute involving two
Michigan graduates, Marguerite K.:
Ashford, '15L, and her father, Circuit
Judge Clarence W. Ashford, '80L.
Miss Ashford, who was recently ad-
mitted to practice law in all the courts
of the territory, is one of the attorneys
for the defense in the case of one Loo
violation of the lottery laws. The case
was to be argued in the court of her
father. The prosecution objected to
this, because of the prejudice that
Judge Ashford might be expected to
have in favor of his daughter, and re-
quested that the defense agree to the
selection of another judge. Miss Ash-
ford refused to do this.
The question was carried to the su-
preme court by the prosecution on a
motion of the government. There Miss
Ashford appeared for the first time,
arguing ably on the motion, and giv-
ing the government a "panning" that
brought smiles to the faces of the
judges. No decision on the motion had
been reached at the time of the send-
ing in of the report. While in the uni-
versity, Miss Ashford was elected a
member of the Order of the Coif.
HUSSEY FAVORS VISITORS'
NIGHT AT OBSERVATORY
The Observatory has had no definite
time at which visitors could become
acquainted with this most interesting
department of the university, but Prof.j
W. J. Hussey, director of the Observ-
atory, is greatly in favor of any plan
by which his department might have
a regular visitors' night.
Professor Hussey has made recom-
mendations to the regents at different
times that a necessary sum of money
be set aside to pay an attendant to!
take charge of the Observatory on
such evenings, but as yet no provision
has been made for this. On accountl
of the great number of persons who!
would visit the Observatory it is al-
most impossible for the regular fac-1
ulty to stay in charge. However, con-
trary to previous arrangements, the
main part of the building is now open
at all times to visitors.
Select Chaperones for Union Dance
Mr. and Mrs. Arthur" J. Decker, and
Mr. and Mrs. J. H. Bringham have been
chosen as chaperones for this week's
Union dance. The committeemen will
be announced later.
There has been a feeling of dissatis-}
faction among the chaperones of late
because of the fact that they are al-
most entirely ignored by those present
at the dances. The committee in
charge of the Union dances wishes
that those present would make an at-
tempt to be more courteous to the
chaperones in the future.
