Later it spends more time and more money in the maintenance of some. of these men as professors 'and masters of research. The increased knowledge that these men bring to the world is the compensation that the State receives. Fourteen members of the University faculty, having tired of the adminis- tration's apparent spinelessness, have sought to strengthen the Allies in their part in the Great War. These men have been trained to study prob- lems from all angles before reaching their decisions. They are used to weighing carefully all the evidence. Several of them, by reason of their peculiar training, are eminently fit- ted to judge and lead public opinion in regard to the right and wrong of this great struggle. These men have been trained by the State for that pur- pose. And yet when they seek to ex- press these well considered opinions they are promptly muzzled by an ul- tra-conservative press and threatened with a "scolding" by the university administration. To quote from the Washington Times: "Perhaps neutrality can rea- sonably be carried that far. Perhaps because a man is a professor he should be barred from expressing opinions; though there has been lit- tle objection to the intellectual ac- tivities of scholars who have ranged themselves on the other side. But as a whole it seems that the men best qualified to pass deliberate, informed, understanding opinions on such sub- jects ought to be encouraged to for- mulate and to express views." Those who object to this frank stand on the part of the faculty mem- bers contend that they signed in their official and not their individual ca- pacities. _If. this -were "true ,the con- troversy would assume a different complexion. But these men signed first their names, then their addresses and lastly, down in one corner, their occupations. The effect and signi- ficance of signatures of this kind have often been passed upon by the courts, yet if these courts were called upon to say that the signatures as they ap- peared on the petition would have bound the university and not the in- dividuals had the instrument been a note, we can imagine what their an- swer would have been. DAILY INTERVIEWS ANDB:COMMENTS Many students who joined the Na- tional Security league have received requests from headquarters to wire or write their approval of section 56 of the Chamberlain bill which pro- vides for a citizen soldiery trained to arms and under absolute and direct federal control Those who take to heart the political lesso which our country has been fortunate enough to receive as the result of the Great War will readily sympathize with such a proposal. We have seen, on the one hand, that the American people as a whole have been but dimly conscious of what are historic American ideals, and on the other hand, there can be no question of the growing strength of a national movement. Three or four years ago a program of preparedness would have met little public approval, both because of the feeling that mili- tary service meant merely a waste of time, and that no national duty toward defense of his country was incumbent upon the citizen of the United States. Europeans might be burdened with military service .but Americans were free! The--scorn in which this view is now held reveals the tremendous change which has come about. H..G Wells says the United States has lived more politically in the last two years than it had previously for a hundred It is the task of contemporary states4 men to give efficient direction to this growing spirit, and the provision above, for its kind, is suitable. Mil- tary service should be made volun- tary, but it should also be made popu- lar by providing the best facilities and officers obtainable.-E. R. S. ROBIECT TOFROIC' DTE SAYS CONNITTEE DISPLAYS IG- NORANCE IN SELECTING GOOD FRIDAY FOR FRESHMAN EVENT. Editor, The Michigan Daily: The freshman class is supposed to be green, but nevertheless it seems as though it ought to know the pur- pose and character of Good *Friday. The committee in charge of the "Frosh Frolic" have displayed great ignor- ance by setting April 21 as the date for the affair.

I am not a minister's son, nor do I ever intend to be a minister of the Gospel. If this were so I would have found out six months ago that I was at the wrong institution. No, far be it from such, but I do believe in show- ing that much respect toward the ob- servance of the day. Would it listen well to the public if the biggest social event of the freshmen at the Univer- sity of Michigan were held on Good Friday.? Surely no harm would be done to the reputation of the univer- sity and the freshmen if the date were changed. As "Doc" May would say, "Think it over." Nevertheless, wishing the freshman class entire success in this and all other events, I am, A FROSH. Motor Cop Enforces Speed Ordinance Since the arrival of the new motor- bike for Motor Officer E.
