PREDICTS SUCCESS,
BUDGET DEMANDS
William M. Smith, chairman of the
Michigan public utilities commission,
in his address before the banquet of
the Chamber of Commerce last night,
told of hearing several members of
the legislature who heard President
Burton talk before the budget com-
mittee come out with the statement
that he had been too modest in his
demands. "I don't know just what
your figures are," Mr. Smith conclud-
ed, "but my section of the state has al-
ways been for you."
Mr. Smith traced the history of the
public utilities, showing the abuses
which were found necessary to reg-
ulate through the medium of first the
railway commission in 1907 and later
the public utilities commission, form-
ed in 1919.
"The people of the state of Michigan
pay in tribute to public service cor-
porations 300 millions of dollars every
year. The wealth of the United States
is estimated at 300 billions of dollars,
of which six billions is in the state of
Michigan. One sixth, or one billion
dollars represents the value of the
public utilities properties.
He expressed the belief that it was
the duty of the public utilities com-
mission to see that the public gets
service at cost, which means that the
owners of the utilitiy are entitled to a
high enough rate to provide a fair
wage for their employees, to pay tax-
es, keep the property in best physical
repair for the rendering of efficient
service, allow for depreciation, and
give a reasonable return to the own-
ers of the property.
CHRISTENSON AWAY ON TRIP TO
MAKE SURVEY CARNEGIE FUND
John C. Christenson, assistant sec-
retary and purchasing agent of the
University, left Sunday for Pitts-
burgh, where he will be employed by
the Carnegie Corporation of New
York. He is to make a survey of
the Carnegie Foundation fund.
James R. Angell, '90, who is pres-
ident of the Carnegie Foundation
fund, is a son of the late James B.
Angell, former president of this Uni-
versity.
Mr. Christenson expects to spend
about two weeks in Pittsburgh, after
which he will resume his duties in
Secretary Shirley W. Smith's office.
EXTEMPORANEOUS SPEAKING

DR. McCRACKEN ADDRESSES

Members of the Washtenaw County

banquet given by the organization last
evening were addressed by Dr. J. C.

Medicalkschool at Shanghai, China, on
"Physicians' Work in China."
Two delegates and two alternates

Vienna Situation on Hair Trigger
Vienna, Jan. 17.-Agitation forfu-
sion with Germany has been marked-
ly recrudescent lately, numerous pub-
lic meetings being held daily. In the
words of an Allied diplomat here, the
situation is on a hair-trigger, and over
all hangs a threat of the workingmen
to take things into their own hands
on Jan. 20.
Even with nightly demonstrations
of all strata of society, order is be-
ing maintained.
January Technic Out This Week
The January issue of the Technic,
which will appear this week, contains
a large number of important special
articles written by prominent men on
present day economic and industrial
problems, affecting the engineer and
his work.

PROF. CAMP TO OPEN GRADUATE
LECTURE SERIES THURSDAY
Prof. Carl D. Camp, of the Medical
school, will open the series of lec-
tures given under the auspices of the
Graduate club at 7:30 o'clock Thurs-
day evening in the Natural Science
auditorium. His subject will be,
"Freudism: A critique of Psycho-
analysis." This subject is to be so
treated that it will be of general in-
terest to the University public and
deals with a current problem in the
medical. field. Professor Camp will be
introduced by Dean Alfred H. Lloyd,
of the Graduate school.
Following this lecture, there will be
a series of four more, all given by
prominent University authorities on
subjects that will survey the recent
advances made in the fields of art and
science. Although these lectures are
primarily to interest the graduate stu-
dents in current problems, they are to
be so ha~ndled that they will be of in-
terest to the undergraduate body, said
Dean Lloyd in effect yesterday. These
lectures are also part of the social
plan of the Graduate cluf and as suck
there will be no admission charge.
A. S. M. E. Will Meet Tonight
The students' branch of the A. S.
M. E. will hold an open meeting at
7:15 o'clock Tuesday evening, in the
Natural Science auditorium.
The subject which will be discussed
is "Truck Axles," delivered by Prof.
W. E. Lay, of the mechanical °engin-
eering department. A moving picture
film, prepared by a large gear man-
ufacturing concern, will present every
phase in the process of making intern-
al, gear axles.
No Coal Shortage This Year
The coal situation at the heating
plant is not a serious one. The build-
ing$ and grounds department is very
well pleased with the supply that is
daily delivered at the plant. There
seem to be no indications of any short-
age such as the one experienced last
winter.
DROUGHTS CAUSE
CHINESE FAMINE
"I know of the prowess and high
standing of Michigan in athletics in
1900," said Dr. Joseph C. McCracken,,
who will speak at the All-athletic1
banquet tonight and in Hill auditor-
ium tomorrow night, "but since it
takes until after New Year's to get
reports to China of the Thanksgiving
games it is quite hard to keep up
with the sports in this country."
Renowned Athlete
Dr. McCracken was a member of
Pennsylvania's Olympic team that
traveled -to Parts with the Michigan
team in 1900, and also played in the
l Michigan-Pennsylvania football game
that same year. "We just won that.
game by the sxin of our teeth," said
the dotcor. "That was when Yost had
only coached Michigan for one or two
games, and all I can say is that he
was "some coach.'
When asked about Chinese stu-
dents coming to this country to
study, Dr. McCracken said, "The $20,-
000,000 which Roosevelt returned to
China from the Boxer uprising and is
now being used for Chinese scholar-
ships in this country was wisely in-
vested. The students go back to
China and make improvements, such
as building railroads, for which they
order materials from the United States
and thus stimulate a profitable trade.''
Droughts Cause Famine
Speaking of the famine in China,
the Olympic star said that it is not
due to floods as is usual every few
years, but to droughts. This is the
first time in 40 years that a famine
has occurred in this manner. Early
in 1919 the famine developed in an
area of 5,000 square miles and af-
fected 4,000,000 people, but the area
and the number of people affected in-
creased until now there are 20,000,000
starving people in an area of 40,000
square miles.
TICKETS FOR HOPPE MATCH
TO BE STILL ON SALE TODAY
(Continued from Page Three)
with Peterson has run out on the
average in four or five innings. Pet-
erson has not been able to give the
champion a close match in this par-
ticular game.
In their exhibitions in Ann Arbor,
Peterson will first deliver a short lec-
ture on the game of which he is con-
sidered the best living authority. His
talk is very instructive and greatly
aids in appreciating the finer points
of the game. Following the talk, Pet-
erson will engage Hoppe in a 250
point balk line match. In closing Pet-
erson will display a number of his
fancy shots which have been a great
source of wonder and amusement to
spectators in Detroit and throughout
the country.
Matches will commence at 3 o'clock
in the afternoon and 8 o'clock in the
evening.
FORMER WOMAN STUDENT IS

According to a statement made by
Dean Myra B. Jordan, Bonnie Wind

led with opium smoking, must be Bon-
nie Windsor, who entered the Univer-
sity last October.

MANY ROOMING GRIEVANCES
BEFORE HOUSING COMMITTEE
Although the number of students
who desire to change their rooms at
the end of the semester is large, the
University housing bureau is having
no particular difficulty in disposing
of them, according to Prof. J. A. Burs-
ley, director of the bureau.
Students who have not mutual
agreements with their landladies are
required to obtain the consent of the
bureau before they can leave their
rooms, as it has been ruled that the
rooms are contracted for a year, not
for one semester. As many stu-
dents did not understand this when
they took the rooms, there has been
a good deal of confusion, which the,
recent ruling of the bureau has accen-
tuated.
Search for Missing Seaplane
Panama, Jan. 17.-The United States
cruiser Birmingham with 18 torpedo
boat destroyers is searching off the
Costa Rican coast for the missing Am-
erican seaplane NC 6. The plane was
among those participating in the
flight from San Diego, Calif., to the
canal zone.
Five men constituting the crew of
the naval plane, NC 6, are on board
the tender Munford.
