PAGE FOUR THE MICHIGAN DAILY. LEGAL PROFESSION Says Business Expansion Has Turned Lawyers Into Solicitors and Business Counsellors ADVOCATE MUST BE SPECIALIST "In the last 35 years the business expansion in this country has taken lawyers out of the law and put them into .business. It has destroyed the profession of advocacy and turned the lawyers into solicitors and counsellors for the business interests," said Mr. Albert M. Kales in his address on "Ad- vocacy in the Appellate Courts," given before the law students yesterday aft- ernoon. This was the last of a series of four lectures given by different members of the Chicago bar on the same general subject. Mr. Kales went on as follows: "This change has had its effect upon the law schools. The ideals of the schools have always kept before the student the profession of advocacy. Your walls are decorated with the por- traits of the great judges. who were the great advocates in their day. You study the opinions of the same judges, who received their training as advo- cates.- "Yet the American legal world has discarded these ideals and gone into the making of money as the solicitors and counsellors of business interests. "The law schools have shown an increasing interest in the success of their graduates as such solicitors and counsellors. One of the greatest teachers was known to speak with pride of the fact that his best stu- dents could command $100 a month in the best offices of New York City on graduation. Nothing, to my mind, was ever so incongruous as a great leader of the Harvard Law School re- joicing in this wholesale absorption of his students by the legal business world. "There are signs, however, of a new development. Business is discovering that its solicitors and counsellors are r. no longer fitted for the practice of advocacy. Thedgreat cases are mak- ing an increasing demand for the pro- fessional advocate. The solicitors and counsellors are demanding his serv- ices, as- the general practitioners of medicine are calling upon the special- is."This employment will give new life to the ideals of the practice of advo- cacy. It is the oblject of the Chicago Society of Advocates to give force and direction to this new demand." After this introduction the speaker* classified the advocates into those who spend their time in jury trials, and those who devote themselves to non- jury or chancery trial work. le said that those who practice as advocates in the appellate court were not a sep- arate class of advocates. The speaker then mentioned six gen- eral qualifications for the practice of advocacy in the appellate courts: first, training in argumentative writing; second, general academic training in law; third, special academic training in the decisions of the particular ap- pellate courts 'before which the advo- cate practiced; fourth, the importance of actual practice in the trial courts; fifth, the voice, presence and address of the advocate. which were of less importance in the appellate court; sixth, the necessity of constant prac- tice in the appellate courts. The speaker than passed to practical hints as to the practice of advocacy in the appellate courts. He dwelt upon the importance of the attitude of the advocate to the court; his absolute frankness and sincerity in making his points. He made practical suggestions as to constructing written briefs and arguments and oral arguments. In conclusion the speaker dwelt upon the true aim of advocacy in the appellate , courts. This aim, briefly stated, is to win. But there is more inethis suggestion that the mere state- ment. The advocates in the appellate court learn that cases can be won by argu- ment. They learn what it is to force opposing counsel to their knees; to demonstrate to the court that they are right and the other side is wrong. They know that in a majority of cases such a demonstration can be made and the court convinced. It is the aim of arguments to do this on every occasion. The advocate should have the spirit and object to win by putting forth that which is un- answerable and the demolition of an opponent's case.

The number is expected to reach 4,000 by the end of the year. 11here are numerous summer jobs pcuring into the "Y" bureau every day, paying as high as $20.50 a week. Most of these positions are in factor- ies in roledo, Detroit, and Chicago. Although the summer resort jobs are coming in slow, there will no doubt be a greater number than usual this year due to the prosperity of the country. According to Loveoy the city of Ann Arbor is to be covered more carefully than ever next year, and a report has been turned over to the deans of the different schools show- ing them what progress the employ- ment bureau has been making. The aim of the bureau is to form a closer association between the faculty and the employment bureau. COMING EVENTS May 10.---Kalamazoo Normal College: vs. Michigan, baseball game.

ANN ARBOR SCHOOL CHILDREN ENTER LY K ILLING CAMPAGN The school children o .. Arbor have entered into the "Swat theA}Py" campaign with vengeance. Evidence enough of this fact is furnished by the request from the pupils of the Tappan eshool, who have entered a requisition for 300 swatters. Pupils of other schools have asked for fly killers in lesser numbers, but all have evinced the liveliest interest in the work of fly killing, following the announcement of Superintendent of Schools H. M. Slauson, that swat- ters would be distributed free of charge to public school pupils. flake Plans for Matinee Racing Card Active preparation has been begun for the matinee racing card to be staged by the Ann Arbor Driving club AT THE THEATERS TODAY Majestie-Louise Lovely in "Tangled Hearts."

Grif- fith's spectacle, "The Birth of a Na- tion," which returns to the Whitney theater for a three-day's engagement starting Thursday afternoon, May 11, a thrilling association with the issu-es of today. The great crisis of 1861-1870 as pic- tured in the play have their lesson for the Americans of today. The North and the South in internecine struggle; the strategy of the Petersburg cam- paign and of Sherman's march to the sea; Lee's surrender to Grant, and the aftermath of war in the Recon- struction period-all these form a se- ries of martial and political events that This will be the last opportunity to see "The Birth of a Nation" as it will not be shown in this city or vicinity again.
