NO FACULTY AID IN RAISING SUM NEEDED Michigan's Quota Compares Well with That of Other Western Schools (By Associated Press) Paris, April 25.-While the Ameri- can delegates expressed regret over the temporary break with the Italians, they were confident that some settle- ment would be effected when the pre- mier confers with the Italian parlia- ment. The general opinion in American circles is that the making of peace will be somewhat delayed. There is no hint, however, that President Wil- son will yield in the slightest con- cerning Flume, and in the opinion of the Americans an agreement can only be reached by a change in the Italian attitude. Not a rupture, but a suspension of Italy's collaboration in the peace con-+ ference - that is how the rituation was defined in conference circles here. The Italian delegation feeling that its representative character has been call- ed into question in certain quarters, considers it its duty to refer to the Italian parliament, but it is believed to be probable that Premier Orlando will be back in time for the opening of the negotiations with the German plenipotentiaries at Versailles, which will not occur before May 1, or 2. Until the Italian prime ministers re- turn, the Italian delegates will not attend the sessions of either the con- ference or its commissions, but in or- der to show that Italy desires to maintain good relations with the Al- lies, the Italians will continue to col- laborate on the inter-allied commis- sions not depending upon the peace conference, such as the economic coun- cil, the armistice commission, and the commission on supply, transportation, raw materials, etc. Forty-two thousand dollars! This is approximately the which was raised by voluntary sum sub- scriptions in the campus campaign for the Fifth Liberty loan, during the four- day campaign which began Tuesday and ended Friday at 5 o'clock. First Two Days Best, The first two days of the campaign were the two best, for on those days $35,000 was raised; approximately $13,000 on Tuesday; and $22,000 on Wednesday. Thursday and Friday the campaign slackened, for on each day only $3,400 was raised, which brought t he total up to $42,000. The largest single subscription on the campus was given by Ada Arnold, '19, who bought bonds to the amount of $5,000. The nearest approach .to this sum was $2,500, and there were several subscriptions of this size. ommuittee Satisfied ralph Gault, '21L, chairman of the general committee in charge of the drive, speaking of the work which had been done, said, "We appreciate the efforts of everyone who has worked for this drive, and the spirit with' which 'vfchigan students have entered into the campaign. The amount which was raised by subscriptions was en- tirely satisfactory and the committee wishes to thank the students who so heartily entered into this campaign, subscribing' for bonds and by their work. ' "No small credit is due to those members of the faculty who talked at the fraternity and sorority houses, and to those students who talked up the campaign. The work of the archi- tects in making and placing the Vic- tory signs over the campus, helped greatly. All worked in unison, and (Continued on Page Six) DETROIT SWIMMERS DEFEAT MICHIGAN Considering that the Michigan swimming team has had poor facili- ties for training and that they were competing with a championship team, their defeat at the hands of. the De- troit Athletic club tank stars was not as bad as the score of 37 to 13 might indicate.'

C., Cen- tral Association champion and second in the National championship, gave the Arm Arbor spectators a real treat in the form of a fancy diving exhibi- tion. The diving contest, won by White of Michigan, was of the most inter- est. There were the four compulsory dives, swan, back, front jack-knife and back jack and three optional dives. Briggs, state champion fancy diver,! White, M won the diving contest with a score of 77.7 out of a possible 100. who took second place, was handi- capped for the reason that he has been diving from a 10 foot board and. had no time to get used to this board, which was only two feet from the wa- ter. However, White's dives could hardly be improved upon and he won much -deserved applause. Moses, tak- (Continued on Page Six) SIX INITIATED BY SIGMA DELTA CHI I Malcolm W. Bingay, Managing Editor of the Detroit News, Is Principal Speaker NEW MEN ADMITTED FRIDAY NIGHT AT BANQUET AT UNION Malcolm W. Bingay, managing editor of the Detroit News, was the princi- pal speaker at the spring initiation banquet of Sigma Delta Chi, profes- sional journalistic fraternity, Friday night at the Union. "The world is flooded these days .with propaganda of every conceivable kind; propaganda for good, as we un- derstand it, and propaganda for evil. We are being suffocated in a flood of printers' ink. The world is a mosaic of warring factions and each faction is yelling and howling from its press box," said Mr. Bingay. "The newspa- per man must rise above blind parti- sanship, must grasp the sorry scheme of things entire, and leave propagan- da to the propagandists. Responsibility Grave "In this waste, this weltering chaos, in the center of this tumult and strug- gle, there stands the newspaper man. It is a time for iron nerves, calm courage, and a sense of humor. He has a responsibility as grave as that of the churchman or the statesman. "I thin* we will all agree that in the reporting of man's social activi- ties, his industrial, political and eco- nomical development, there is but one thing to do-learn all the facts and report them honestly. The work of the journalist in truly sensing his re- sponsibilities, in the inculcating of faith and charity and broad under- standing in the public mind, is a big and worthy task. I know of no higher calling." - Mr. Bingay's speech upon the re- sponsibility of the newspaper man, followed addresses by Prof. J. R. Brumm, who discussed the profession- al spirit in journalism, and by Cyril Arthur Player, special writer on the Detroit News, on "The Twenty-first Century Newspaper." Prof. F. N. Scott, of the rhetoric department, gave a short talk on the relation of ideals in journalism to the cry for sensa- tionalism. Initiates Welcomed Milton Marx, '19, was toastmaster of the evening. Clarence Roeser, '19,, managing editor of The Daily, wel-1 comed the initiates, and Mark K. Ehl- bert, '20, responded to the welcome., The neophytes admitted are: Ken- drick Kimball, '20; Vincent H. Rior- den, '20; Mark K. Ehlbert, '20; How-E ard Weeks, '21; Paul A. Shinkman, '20, and Herbert R. Slusser, '20.

DANCING FEATUES ALL-NATION NIGT Dancing from Al Countries Will Be Big Feature of International Event CHAIRMEN WORKING ON MANY DETAILS TO INSURE SUCCESS Mind-reading by a genuine Hindoo mystic will be a part of the business to come up at "The All-Nation Hulla- baloo," Michigan's international con- ference, to be held Friday evening, May 2, in Hill auditorium. Russian dancing, Oriental fencing, and the ever indispensible American jazz, are other questions to be given hearings, and it is promised that the entire number of principals to appear will easily hold their own with those who are attending the international conference "on the other side." Committees are working busily to make "The All-Nation Hullabaloo" a memorable event in history, and pres- ent indications point to a most satis- factory settlement of all matters in- volved. The committee chairmen are as follows: Morikiyo Uyehara, SchoolI of Music, general chairman; Mr. George Wilner, dramatic director; Mr.1 Ralph Carson, treasurer; Mr. Roy C. Jacobson, tickets; M. D.

He said the city was full of Italian soldiers who were arriving constantly. Virtually all the inhabitants of Fiume except Italians had left the city before the officer de- parted. Even many of the Itali- an civilians, the officer added, have departed. Another American officer who reached here today from Rome says the feeling against Am- ericans there is very bitter. He asserts that he was asked in Rome to leave cafes because the proprietors said Italian officers -..eclined to eat in the same places with Americans. ESPERANTO IS, POSSIBLE INTERNATIONAL TONGUE "Esperanto has nothing to do with internationalism, or advanced social- ism," said Dr. T. Sigel of Detroit in a lecture on the subject Friday even- ing in University hall. "Dr. L. L. Zamenhof, a Russian-Pol- ish Jew, invented it merely as an in- ternatioial auxiliary language, be- cause he believed that people of dif- ferent races and tongues could settle their differences more peaceably if they could understand each other's ideas and principles." This is the 33d year that Esperanto has been in practical use. Before that, over 300 different systems were tried but none survived. Esperanto is based upon 16 different Indo-European languages, but is ex- peeted to take the place of none. It is intended to be the long hoped-for and often scoffed-at international tongue. 4 In a one-half hour study a day for four weeks, a reading, writing and speaking knowledge of it may be ob- tained.

Saturday, May 10, has been set as the date and committees are already at work getting plans under way. The events of the day will begin with a baseball game in the fore- noon. An old fashioned barbecue will be held at noon. The meat will be sup- ported on steel rods and cooked over an open bed of coals, and, as the club boasts of several experts in this line of work, unusually good results are expected. As has been the custom at the field days in the past, contests in rifle, pis- tol and trap shooting will be held in the afternoon. Talks will be given by members of the department facul- ty, and under their direction exhibi- tions in camp breaking and packing will be held. Prizes, the nature of which is being held a secret by the committees, will be awarded the win- ners of the various events. ART STUDENTS TO SEE TILE MAKING Students of the College of Archi- tecture and members of the Ann Ar- bor Art association will visit the Pewa- bic Pottery, of Detroit, Saturday morning, for the purpose of studying the process of tile making for decora- tiye and architectural purposes. The party will leave on the 7 o'clock Mich- igan Central train. Through error in the Friday issue of The Daily it was announced that1 a trip of this nature had taken placef last Wednesday. ITALIAN PAPERS BELIEVE PVESIDENT'S STAND UNJUSTf DEAN JAMES ROWLAND ANGELL'S STIPULATED CONDITIONS TO BE DEFINITELY DECIDED UPON AT TIME OF ADJOURNED MEETING DRILL AND WEARING UNIFORMS NOT INCLUDED; SYSTEM WITH CREDIT TO BE STARTED NEXT FALL GovernmentSelects Michigaa t Za Research in Hygiene; Donations Recei-ed (By T. F. McAlister) Disposing of the most important matter up for determination, that of the acceptance of the presidency by Prof. James Rowland Angell, of Chi- cago, by adjourning for further Con- sideration until next Thursday, the Board of Regents occupied the session yesterday afternoon with the adoption of the R. O. T. C. military training system at Michigan, the acceptance of several donations, the award of de- grees, and the appointment of fellow- ships for the ensuing year. It is understood that before the next meeting the members of the board wil have arrived at a definite decision re- garding the conditions stipulated by Dean Angell, and by that time it is believed an understanding wil be reached. Accept Government Proposal Acting upon the report of the co- mittee on military, the Regents adopt- ed the proposal of the war department to establish a reserve officers' training corps at the University. This organ- ization beginning with the next fall semester will be concerned especially with the signal corps, and coast and field artillery. Because of the nature of the work, it will be confined for the greater part to the engineering col- lege, as over 90 per cent of the work must be of necessity carried on in conjunction with the various courses in civil engineering and surveying. Against Drill and Uniform Introducing an attractive feature, there will be no military drill nor wearimg of uniforms about the campus. During the college year, the work done will be of a theoretical nature, the practical application of the prin- ciples thus studied to be put into ex- ecution during the summer camps. There will be several of these vaca- tion training schools throughout the country, and attendance during two summers is necessary to receive cred- it in the work. After two years thus spent, students will receive 40 cents a day from the government, and after the passing of the examinations the commission of second lieutenant will be given those successfully completing the course. During the six weeks of the summer training, students will receive army mileage to and from the camps, and while no provision has yet been made for pay, all uniforms, food, housing, and equipment will be given by the government. Dr. Warthin Honored Donating $6,000 to medical studies in the University, the United States Interdepartmental Social Hygiene board specified that the sum should be used in Dr. Aldred S. Warthin's work to discover improved methods of dem- onstrating the presence of spirochete pallida in human tissues. Consider- ing Dr. Warthin's researches of great value and importance, the hygiene board, interested in all discoveries and methods in the treatment of venereal disease, chose the Michigan man for this special study. Dr. Warthin states that the fund will be used during the next three years for materials and as- sistants in the work. The Regents also authorized Dr. Warthin to pre- sent an exhibition in mustard gas at the June meeting of the American Medical association. The board accepted with a vote of thanks, a gift of $1,000 from Mr. H. H. Service, of Detroit, and formerly of Ann Arbor, to be used as a loan fun for la*..students. University Given Paintings Three valuable paintings were pre- sented to the University by Mr. J. A. Wetmore of New York, and were grate- fully accepted by the board. Two landscapes, "A Scene in the Catskills" by Thomas Cole, and "A Scene in the Delaware River" by Thomas B.
