Committee and Publicly_
Announced
(B Associated Press)
Washington, Jan. 13. - With the
naval treaty virtually completed the
arms delegates are preparing to turn
the conference promptly on Shan-
tung, apparently in the hope that a
settlement of that controversy may
make it easier to go ahead with other
troublesome problems of the Far
East.
It is now the expectation in confer-
ence circles that during the next few
days and probably until a decision is
reached, the Shantung negotiations
will have right of way while discus-
sion of other Far Eastern subjects
remain at a standstill.
American Observers Present
So far the Shantung exchanges have
taken place between the Japanese and
Chinese alone, with American and
British observers present. but the
next phase of the conference program
is expected at least to concentrate on
the problem of the friendly interests
of all the governments represented
here.,
At their 'meeting today the Chinese
and Japanese groups reached an
agreement for opening up the entire
Kiaochow leased territory to foreign
trade and tomorrow they are to take
up the collateral question involved in
restoration of the lease hold to China.
Their sessions are expected to last
throughout the day and will form the
only item appearing on tomorrow's
conference program.
Few Details Remainn
In the naval negotiations only a
few details considered more or less
perfunctory, remain to be arranged.
If present plans develop ,the final
draft of the naval treaty will be laid
before the full naval committee early
next week and will be publicly an-
nounced at a plenary session of the
conference a few days later.
Pleasing Variety
Sown In Concert
In a program of works from a va-
riety of composers, and representing
a variety of national types of music,
Mrs. Emma Fischer-Cross, former
member of the Scifool of Music piano
faculty, displayed a distinct technical
accuracy and pleasing variation of
tonal effect which made her concert
in the Bethlehem church last night a
well worth-while event.
Mrs. Fischer-Cross, who has done
concert work for a number of years
in different parts of the country, is
a mature player and did not miss any
opportunity to display her under-
standing of the effects represented in
her music. Chopin's Polonaise, Opus
63, the national Polish march, stood
out on the program as a well han-
dled selection requiring difficult work
ing up of gradual climaxes, and sus-
tained rhythm.
Mrs. Annis Dexter Gray, contralto,
who assisted Mrs. Fischer-Cross in her
program, sang several numbers, of
which her "Zur Ruh', zur Ruh'!" was
probably the best, in a voice of rich-
ness in the upper register.
COSMOPOLITAN CLUB PLANS
WORLD RELATIONS TALKS
The Cosmopolitan club laid plans
at its meeting last night for a ser-
ies of discussions on questions of in-
ternational relationships, open to all
students and faculty members.

ers, and Plans for its Execution," and
"The Better Understanding of Other
Peoples Through the Establishment of
International Trade and an Interna-
tional Language," will be on the pro-
gram. Meetings will be held every
second Friday evening in the office of
- Prof. J. A. C. Hildner, faculty adviser
for the club. Later If atkendance war-
rants the meetings wi'l be held in
Natural Science auditorium.
Fire Danjages Home!
Fire caused a small damage to the
roof of the home of Mrs. M. M. Davis,'
602 East Catherine street, shortly aft-
er 5 o'clock yesterday afternoon. The
bIaze was extinguished in a few min-
utes.
BURTON PRAISES
YOST'S INFLUENCE
Flint, Jan. 13.-Coach Fielding H.
Yost is one of the "strongest influ-
ences on the Michigan campus," stated
President Marion L. Burton of the
University of Michigan in a comment
upon the position of the University in
athletics durinng hisaddress at the an-
nual alumni banquet here Wednes-
day.
This remark was the signal for the
greatest demonstration of the eve-
ning and Flint alumni declared their
support of Yost in no uncertain
terms. In the selection of Yost as the
head of the newly formed department
of athletics, said the President, it was
thought that his presence on the cam-
pus 12 months a year instead of 3
would greatly increase his value to
the University.
Flint alumni will hold a mass meet-
ing next Tuesday night forthe pur-
pose of adopting a wide rscope of ac-
tivity as the result of a suggestion by
President Burton.

PROPORTIONS AS WORK 1S RUSHED
FUNDS ARE ACCOUNTED FOR
ADVANCE BY DETAILED
BUDGET
IN
With a contribution from every man
on the campus as the objective, the
Student Christian association drive
will open next Tuesday morning to
raise at least $4,000 for the support
of the institution.
"No matter how large or small the
sum may be, we want something from
every student," said C. Maurice Atkin-
son, '22, general chairman, yesterday.
"If everyone gives something the re-
quired quota is sure to be obtained."
The budget has been reduced $1,000
from the amount used last year.
Every cent in the budget is accounted
for and several of the items are be-
ing published in The Daily each day
so that the campus will know just how
the money is being used.
- The sum of $450 is needed for re-
ligious education. The Institute of
Religious Education, The . Religious
Education assembly, and the starting
and conducting of discussion groups
in fraternities have been under the
supervision of this department. It has
also promoted the courses dealing in
religious education now given on the
campus. The money is used for speak-
ers, printing, and office expense.
Twenty-five dollars are needed for
publicity, including advertisements in
newspapers, posters, circulars and
letters. One hundred and fifty dol-
lars are needed for social purposes.
The money is spent for parties which
are given during vacation periods for
students who are unable to go home.
For a contingent fund $300 is re-
quired. This is kept as a reserve for
any emergencies that may come up
during the year and for any other de-
partments that may run over the
amount allotted In the budget.
To conduct foreign student work,
$75 is needed. This money is spent in
helping foreign students on the cam-
uus become acquainted with conditions
here, aiding them in getting settled.
and entertaining them. There are 350
foreigners on the campus.

BONUS, ALLIED0REFUN
BILLS TO BE SEPARAE
(By Associated Press)
Washington, Jan. 13.-The soldier
bonus bill will not be made a part of
the allied debt refunding bill, Chair-
man McCumber of the senate finance
committee said tonight after a series
of conferences had been held between
senate leaders to discuss the desirabil-
ity of merging the two and it had be-
come known at the White House that
President Harding did not look with
favor upon the suggestion that they be
combined.
The foreign debt bill, Senator Mc-
Cumber said, would be taken up. by

DR. PA RNET.T DENE IM1 OR
OF ADDITION TO HOSPITAL
Has Not Heard of Any Such Plans
from Authoriative Source,
He Says'
Current rumors concerning the ps-
sibllity of the addition of two stories
to the new University hospital f-r the
nurpose of caring for cripuled chil-
dren of the state were denied by Dr.
Christopher G. Parnall, director of the
hosnital, in an interview yesterday.
"I have heard of no such plans,"
said Dr. Parnall, "and do not know
who would have the authority to make
such a statement. The outsde of the
new hosptal is practically completed
a.nd the addition, of any moe stories
would necessitate the tearing off o
the roof. I do not believe that such
an expensve proect is being seri
ously contemplated - partcu'arly ini
view of the fact that the care of many
crippled children of the state is al-
ready provided for by a state law
passed in 1913, and by an action tak-
en by the Rotary club at a Ninth Dis-
trict meeting a year or so ago."

TALAMON TO C ODCT
SUMMER FRENCH TUR
Prof. Rene Talamon, of the romance
languages department, who will return
shortly from Washington where he has
acted as interpreter at the Disarma-
ment conference, will head a party of
American teachers and students to
France this summer. There will be a
number of such university groups
throughout the country, each under
the direction of some professor of
romance languages.
The trip, whose purpose is to enable
American teachers and students to
study in France at the lowest possible
cost, will be of 10 weeks' duration, ex-
tending from July 1, when. the party
sails from New York, until Sept. 1.
Those students and teachers who are
interested in taking the trip may make
provisional sarrangements with Prof.
C..P. Wagner, head of the Spanish de-
partment, before Professor Talamon's
return.
Professor Wagner will also have
charge of a group who will visit Spain
and points in Southern France and
along the Riviera, sailing from Mon-
treal June 16, and returning Sept. 4.
This trip, like that to France, is es-
sentially an educational one. It is
planned primarily for those teachers
and students of Spanish who wish to
avail themselves of the course of study
offered next summer at Madrid, under
'-he direction of the Spanish govern-
ment.

UNION CONSIDERS,

DSCIJSSION PLAN
EXPRESSIONS OF OPINION WILL
DETERMINE ACTION ON
PROPOSITION
TALKS MAY BE BEGUN
DURING NEXT SEMESTER
Professors Declare Favorably on Un-
derlying Principle of
Gatherings
y
Discussion groups ,at which mem-
bers of the faculty would speak in-
formally to small groups of students
'n a wide variety of subjects which
do not come up in the class room, and
which would secure personal contact
between faculty membergraduate and
undergraduate, are' being considered
by the Union, and it was announced
yesterday that if sentiment in most
quarters favors it, the project will be
commenced with the opening of the
second semester.
The success which has attended the
discussions on religion ,philosophy
and ethics by faculty men in frater-
nity houses under the direction of the
Student Christian association, has
made the Union consider the advisa-
bility of holding meetings in the Union
to which all students would come in
small groups, and where the faculty
members would speak on politics, his-
tory, philosophy, literature, travel and
many other subjects.
Not to Conflict with S. C. A.
There would be no conflict between
the -Union's work and the Stu-
dent Christian association discussion
groups. The former would simply be
broader in scope, both from a stand-
point of men reached and in subjects,
It is felt that with men. of distinc-
tion in many fields who teach only a
limited part of a subject in a class
room, students do not get the full ben-
efit of the advantages which these men
have to offer. It is also believed that
the personal contact will do much to
promote mutual understandings.
Members of the faculty, interviewed
yesterday as to their attitude toward
the proposed discussion groups, ex-
pressed themselves as favoring the
underlying principles.
Prof. Jesse S. Beeves, of the politi-
cal science department, said that
while heartily in favor of the idea, he
thought it would tend to add, to the
already crowded schedule of the pro-
fessor.
Must Have Student Support
Prof. William A. Frayer, of the his-
tory department, expressed the opin-
ion that the scheme would work it
the students were behind the idea.,
Prof. Morris P. Tilley, of the Eng-
'ish department, said he favored any
plan that would bring the faculty and
students together in an informal way.
He suggested, though, that the groups
should be so organized as to permit
the student, to take an/ active part.
Professor Tilley thinks the plan
should be tried out on a small scale
first and that the discussions be con-
fined to some topic of vital interest.
Prof. I. Leo Sharfman ,of the eco-
nomics department, while hesitating
to express the attitude of his col-
leagues in this department, said he
thought they would be generally will-
ing to give their support in any way
which would aid in making these dis-
cussion groups workable.
Approves Closer Relationship
"I am thoroughly in accord with
any means through which faculty
members and students may be
brought into closer relationship,"
said Dean E. H. Kraus, of the Sum-
mer session. "I have not given
thought to the details of a plan such
as that being considered by the
Union, but I believe the principle un-
derlying it is worthy of serious con-
sideration.
"Such contact as contemplated is
already made in advance laboratory
courses where the student and in-
structor arerconstantly thrown to-
gether. In these groups subjects oth-
er than those related to the course
itself are under discussion every day.
"I,have no doubt as to the willing-
ness of faculty members to give their
tripe for informal discussion meetings
if a real interest is shown on the. part
of the students."
BISHOP WILLIAMS TO SPEAK
AT ST. ANDREWS TOMORROW
Rt. Rev. Charles D. Williams, bishop
of the diocese of Michigan, will be the
speaker at the 10:30 o'clock service
tomorrow morning at St. Andrew's
Episcopal church. The bishop has not
snoken in Ann Arbor since his trip to
England where he made a careful
study of British labor conditions, and
he will probably make some refer-
ence to his work abroad in his sermon.
