PRICE FIVE C PREMI BRINGS HOPE TO ENGLISH BOR SITUATION LLOYD GEORGE GVES RENEWED PROSPECT OF AVERTING CRISIS PLAN EXPEC TED TO BE MEANS OF SETTLEMENT Labor Party Urges Members to Stand by Miners Against Power of Organized Capital (By Associated Press) London, April 7. - Another day of tense alternation of hope and fear end- ed with one of the prime minister's characteristic eleventh hour interven- tions, brin'ging renewed prospects that the grave industrial crisis will be averted. He announced in the house of commons tonight the willingness of the government to participate 'in a conference to discuss the question of pumping before other matters were considered. Informal conferenfces continued throughout the evening in an endeav- or to induce the miners to relent on the question of resuming pumping as a preliminary move to 'negotiations, and it was supposed that the whole question was turning on this slendr hope. Plan Brings Hope Premier Lloyd George had been ab- sent, during 'the latter hours of 'the d te on thetsituation, but returned to the house unexpectedly at 11 o'clock and informed the members that the government had agreed to a course, which it is believed practically cer- tain the miners will accept - the call- ing of a conference of owners and miners to discuss with the goverment the difficulties relative to pumping the mines before touching upon the ques- tion of wages and other matters in- volved in the demands of the inen. Reason for Change Unknown What steps led up to this change of front are unknown as yet. The coun- cil of the independent labor party to- day called upon its member, to sup- port the miners by every means in their power, declaring the crisis was due t0 an attempt on the part of or- ganized capitalsxi to establish the right of unlimited plunder and de- grade the standard of living, which must be resisted at all costs.

SUMMER' SCHOOL OFFERS COURSE IN OIENTAL 9AT Study of the arts of Oriental peo- ples in the near and far East, to be introduced by the course of Prof. Herbert R. Cross, of the fine arts de- partment, on Oriental art in the Summer session, is a new thing in this country, according to Dean E. H. Kraus. This is the first time that a course has been given in the subject in the United States, although some attempt has been made in recent years to learn more of eastern peoples by artists and research workers. Professor Cross, in an interview, said that collections of eastern art in this country are very meager, Mich- igan owning practically nothing of the sort and the only one of any size being in Boston. Six courses in actuarial, statistical, and financial mathematics will also be offered in the Summer session, ac- cording to a special announcement that may be secured at Dean Kraus' office. These courses are open to regular students of the Summer ses- sion and, according to the Dean, of- fer special advantages for individual instructin-. Applications for the French house, where a special French environment will be offered, have been so many as to nearly fill its capacity, according to Prof. A. G. Canfield, who is in charge of the plan. He urges' that any. new applicants for admission inform him as soon as possible if they hope to se- fornia, under the auspices of various Michigan alumni associations, will rally to the standards of the Maize and Blue, in reserved sections. (By a Staff Correspondent) Berkeley, April 7. - Coach Steve Farrell of the Michigan Varsity track team handed out a stiff afternoon's program to his proteges today.

This is 6 inches farther than any Michigan or California jumper has done this year. Michigan's chance to win this event was thereby much enhanced. The morning was given over to en- tertainment, the track team being shown the sights of San Francisco in an extensive automobile tour. At noon the team was the guest of honor at a luncheon given by the Olympic club. As guests of the University of Cahl- fornia tonight the team will attend the annual axe rally in the open air Greek theater, and tomorow a long automobile trip has been planned through the nearby country.
