This is positively stated by those
close to the government, although the
German counter proposals have not
been made public here.
Simons Keeps Secrecy
Dr. Simons, the foreign secretary,
did not present the new proposals to
the Reichstag today because of an un-
derstanding with the American embas-
sy and for the additional reason that
there is a paragraph in the note to
President Harding suggesting that he
feel free to query back for further in-
formation or the elucidation of any
point not clear, if he so desires before
submitting the note, to the Entente.
Consequently the German press and
public, and even the party leaders.
have not seen the counter proposals
and their publication is eagerly
awaited.
Pledges Co-operation
-The Germans suggest making the
annuities in the payments of the rep-
aration flexible dependent upon the
recovery of German industries. An in-
ternational loan is suggested to be
floated immediately for the purpose of
placing ready cash at the disposal of
the Entente but no sum is named.
Germany expresses her willingness
to pledge the custom revenues as
guaranteed, and further offers to de-
liver manufactured articles to the Al-
lies with the understanding that Ger-
many will pay the producers and get
credit on the indemnity. Germany
also offers immediate participation in
the work of restoration of the de-
vastated areas, labor and material to
be supplied by Germany and credited
against the indemnity.
Terpsic ore and
Jazz Will Reign
A1t al Tonight
Endorsed by President Marion L.
Burton and prominent local pastors,
a club to be composed of students who
contemplate entering the ministry ef-
fected a temporary organization last
Saturday night in Lane Hall. The
meeting was one of the conferences of
Paul Heath, Princeton graduate and
student of Auburn Theological semin-
ary, who was in Ann Arbor last week
end interviewing. students who intend
entering the profession.
Permanent Organization Later
W. L. Nufer, '22, was elected tem-
porary president,'and 0. C. Michel-
mann, '22, was elected temporary sec-
retary of the new club. A committee
was also appointed to decide upon a
name and formulate a body of prin-
ciples. Permanent organization will
soon be made.
The president of the club will hold a
seat in the S. C. A. cabinet, according
to Thomas S. Evans, secretary of the
association. About 12 or 15 men are
at present eligible for membership.
It is said that the University has
always been backward in producing
ministers for the state, and it is hoped
that the new club will ,elp to place
the University where it belongs in this
respect.' The fact that there are some
3,000 ministers in the state compared
to the fact that there are some 15 pro-
spective ministers in the University
at the present time is called signific-
ant.
Plan Meets with Approval
President Marion L. Burton praised
the idea, and said, "It is an excellent
thing to keep the profession before the
men 'and women of the University."
Rev. Lloyd C. Douglas, pastor of the
First Congregational church, stated
that the need of the present is.. for
ministers with a broader training and
viewpoint, which the University sup-
plies. He favors the club, saying that
it will be of use in bringing future
ministers to the University. Rev. J.
M. Wells, of the First Baptist church,
expects that the club will present the
calling to other students.

Washington, April 25.-Progress on
the initial administration peace pol-
icy-to end the state of war by resolu-
tion of congress-was made today in
both branches of congress.
In the senate the Knox peace reso-
lution revised in minor detail, was re-
ported favorably by the foreign Mela-
tions committee, and announcement
was made by Senator Lodge, of Mas-
sachusetts, Republican leader, that it
would be called up tomorrow.
Two similar resolutions dealing sep-
arately with Germany and Austria
were introduced in the house by Chair-
man Porter of the foreign affairs com-
mittee, who announced that they would
not be taken up until the senate acts
on the Knox measure.
Although 'the senate is to begin
formal consideration tomorrow of the
Knox resolution it was not certain to-
night that actual debate would start
before Wednesday. Senator Knox, of
Pennsylvania, author of the resolu-
tion, and other Republican dleaders,
contemplated debating the measure
tomorrow but Democrats were not
ready to begin discussion.

ite in Ann Arbor and has appeared,
in many productions. This will be its;
first appearance for some time and it
is expected to prove a popular re-
vival.
One other act was announced pre-
viously by the management, "Pitter-
Patter", by Gorge Sloan, but ineli-
gibility has cut this skit from the pro-
gram. R

tary.

the alumMii are much interested in the'
S. C. A. plan of co-ordinating the relig-

are opposed to duplication of effort.

organizations in connection with the
various local churches is favored by
alumni, who also want loc9l churches1

cial aid, according to the officials.

cu'ssion, adopted the recommendations

schools offering college courses desig-
nated as junior colleges, may earn

colleges comply with the regulations
formulated by the University. Two
types of schools are contemplated in

public schools and the small colleges.
preferably those which have accepted
'the status of the junior college.

ed by the University must possess the
qualifications demanded of its in-
structors by the University. The teach-
ers must be specialists hr their sub-
jects. All instructors will be requir-
ed to have had two years' experience

approved list may, on the presenta-
tion of a certificate to that effect, be

college to the University.

Student Advisory Committee Gets
auto Action In Remedying Lvils
Regular functions as a judicial body
overseeing student conduct were as-
sumed by the Student Advisory com-
mittee at a special meeting yesterday
afternoon in the Union. A number of
matters were discussed upon which
no definite action has been taken, ac-
cording to James I. McClintock, '21L,
chairman, but some steps have been
taken to remedy undesirable condi-
tions among the student body.
The committee is now working on,
a co-operative plan to eliminate the
bad sportsmanship that was exhibit-
ed by a number of Michigan rooters
during the past basketball season.1
Communications were addressed to
honor societies and several others
whose support could be expected, sug-
gesting the formation of some plan
whereby students themselves in the
stands could prevent the recurrence
of such. sentiment.
Steps were also taken to stop the
intoxication and misconduct that have
been seen at the Swing-out in past
years by communicating with presi-
dents of the graduating classes. It is
hoped that in this way personal con-
tact with the students will prevent the
misbehavior that has frequently mar-
red the occasion.
