DETROITERS HEAR BRUMM
Addresses Fathers' and Sons' Banquet
on Personal Responsibilities
Speaking at a fathers' and sons'
banquet held last night in the Wood-
ward Avenue Presbyterian church of
Detroit, Prof. John R. Brumm of the;
Journalism department gave an ad-
dress on the responsibility of the fa-
ther to the son;.
Professor Brumm described the
different types of fathers, including
what he called a "Santa Claus fa-
ther," who gave his children every-
thing they desired without thought -of,
the consequences. He ended his ad-
dress with a description of the ideal
father, "the one who is a real pal to
his boy."'
During the course of his speech,
Professor Brumm told how the aver-
age young man of today has no real
objective in life and 'how he was cod'-
tent to drift along without thinking
of the future. Professor Brumm stat-
ed that 80 per cent of the students in"
most universities came there without
any serious motives for their life
work.
Dr. M. C. Pearson, secretary of the
Detroit council of churches, was an-
other eminent speaker on the pro-
gram. He made an urgent appeal to'
the fathers and sons to stand 'by the
church and to support it in every
possible way.

like the federal agents carried only
side arms.
Regret "Misunderstanding'
Martin S. McDonough, state attor-:
ney for Iron River, today announced
that he had received a telegram from
Attorney General Palmer, regretting
that a "misunderstanding had arisen"
over the enforcement of the prohibi-
tion laws and expressing the hope
that the difficulty would be straight-
ened out. Mr. McDononugh was ad-
vised by the attorney general to get
in touch with District Attrney Walker
at Grand Rapids, in an effort to settle
the matter.

WAR DEPARTMENT ESTIATES
ENROLLMENT AT 10,000
"Although no definite figures will be
available, of course, until just before
the dates set for the R. 0. T. C. sum-
mer camps, it seems probable now that
there will be a large attendance of
mn from the R. 0. T. C. units here,"
stated Captain Arthur of the Uni-
versity R. 0. T. C. unit. "Out of the
first 19 . men questioned regarding
their intentions in the matter, 15 sig-
nified their expectation of attending
one of the camps this summer.
"There will be two of these camps,
one for the coast artillery at Fort
Monroe, Va.,. from June 17 to July 28,
an done for the signal corps at Camp
Vail, N. J., fom June 24 to Aug. 4."
Expect 10,000 to Aend
The war department has-estimated
total attendance at these summer
camps at 10,000 men from all R. 0.
T. C. units throughout the - country.
Captain Arthur stated that to quali-
fy for a commission a man should at-
tend two of these camps during his
R. 0. T. C. course. "If more than 10,-
00 men apply for attendance during
the coming summer," he said; "the
number to go from the junior units
will be restricted, giving preference
to the senior units."
Present enrollment in the R. 0. T.
C. in the University here now num-
bers more than 150, This is with rep-
resentation, since the beginning of the
second semester, fro'hi'the engineering
ar-d literary colleges and the law
school. "Enrollment for the present
semester will not continue beyond the
end of this month," Captain Arthur
states,' "except in accordance with
University practice In cases of delayed
registration."
Instructors Arrive
Material for the coast artillery is be-
ing received, which up to the present
has consisted chiefly of material per-
taining to the fire drill. The person-
nel of the department has also been
increased by the arrival of Sergts.

Sergt. Delbert C. Smith. Sergeant
Thomas wil have charge of all office
work, Sergeant Rodak will take over

rial and Sargeant Smith will be as-
sistant in charge of motor transporta-
tion.

As a result of recent government
legislation, the United States public
health service at Washington, D. C., is
-empowered to offer free medical aid
and treatment, and compensation if
merited, to all discharged sick, or dis-
abled soldiers.
Unfortunately, many ex-service men
appear to be ignorant of the provis-

E ons of this bill, and are either neg-"
lecting their injuries entirely, or are,
paying for their own artificial limbs
and other medical attention.
Hospitals have been establsihed at
convenient places throughout the-Un-
ited-States, where physical examina-
tions and suitable treatment are pro-;
vided. The government is desirous
of aiding these men, and' urges that,
they write for information to# the Un-

CUT PROM ARMY SILL

(Special to The Daily)
Washington, Feb. 24. - Universal
military training will be omitted from
the house army reorganization bill
and be the subject of separate legis-
lation at the next session of congress,
beginning in December. This was
agreed on tonight by Republican lead-
ers and Chairman Kahn of the house
military committee, after two days' of"
informal conferences.
The agreement is looked upon as
eliminating any possibility of Re-
publican action in the house which.
might be interpreted as a stand on
universal training in the coming
presidential campaign, and will leave
the parties attitude as possible sub-
ject for consideration in framing a
platform at the national convention.
1SEW FELLOWSHIP OFFERED
BY CLEVELAND FIRM
The Ric-Wil company, of Cleveland,
Ohio, builders of underground' heating
equipment, have offered a fellowship
for the purpose of obtaining informa-
tion concerning the loss of heat by
underground pipes.
Three years ago, W. A. Warrick, as-
sistant In- the mechanical laboratory,
made extensive tests concerning heat
absorption by the ground. The results'
as obtained by his experiments were
later used as a basis for a master's
degree thesis. As yet this fellowship.
has not been assigned, but the re-
search, when commenced, will con-
sist of experiments to determine. the
heat loss of a pipe at different depths
in the ground, with and without insu-
letion, and possibly with soils of dif-
ferent composition.

Expresses Self as Strongly Favoring
Strict Regulation of immi-
gration
"Nothing that I have seen in my ex-
perience with colleges compares with
the Michigan Union in size or mag-
nificance, in t e line ,of a university
men's club," said Hon. George Suth-
erland, '83L, yesterday.
. Mr. Sutherland expressed himself
as without words to show his admira-
tion for the 'Union and for .what it
stands for. He said, "The idea is
superb, the place for the men to get-
togther for good clean amusement and
in such a building is wonderful; I
cannot express my appreciation 'of
such an institution. I believe that it
'should do an inestimable amount of
good in providing a place in which
the men can congregate, with good as-
sociations, with the best of' facilities
for enjoying themselves and at the
same time in an -atmosphere of the
best kind possible.".
Notes Changes
Mr. Sutherland, remarked how the
Universtiy had changed since he was
here in the early eighties. "When I
was here," the said, "there were about
1,500 students. Now I find that it has
more than 8,000 students and is at
the present time, undoubtedly, one of
the greatest universities in the world.
"There has always been a peculiar
,fact about Michigan in comparison to
"bther universities, that of the purpose
of its students. There are now and
there have been as long as I can re-
member, a greater percentage of men
and women in the University of Mich-
igan who have come here forthe pur-
pose of getting all that is possible
out of their college !career than in
any other university in the country."
Comments on Legue
Asked his opinion on the recent na-
tional college vote on the 'league of
nations, Mr. Sutherland said, "Two-
thirds of the votes cast were against
unqualified ratification of the treaty.
This was true all through the coun-
try and expresses the gradually grow-
ing sentiment, as the country under-
,stands better the provisions of the
treaty, that it is not the thing to have
as it stands now.
"Personally I do not like it at all.
,I believe that it would grow on us un-
til in the end it would threaten our
national safety. It is a well known'
fact that men, when they get across
the water, thousands of miles from
home will be affected by the men
around them, and will in a measure
absorb the European point of view.
As a result they become more inter-
ested in the settlement of the pro-
blems before them than in the welfare
of theor own nation. The American
.ls a straight-thinking' animal and
when he comes in contact with the
European he is out of his element.
The age old cunning and craft and
,ntriguing will always be too much
for Americans.
Says Attend to Own Affairs
"We dominate this hemisphere. Let
Europe continue its brawls and in-
,triguing and let America attend to its
own affairs not mixing into affairs
where we annot possibly benefit and
where we m aylay ourselves open to
immeasurable harm. America has al-
ways been known to do the right thing
when it became evident what was to
be done, but 11 cannot become recon-
ciled to a treaty binding the future

generations to a policy of European
meddling and interference. Let the
generations of the future decide their
own problems instead of us trying
to settle their destiny for them. They
will handle their difficulties as we
have handled ours."
Mr. Sutherland. epressed himself
as strongly in favor of a restricted'
foreign immigration with two prin-
cipal regulations.
Favors Literary Test
"First," he said, "I believe in the
literary test. It is not perfect but
J believe it is as nearly perfect as
