"It is quite obvious that the mill-
tax of the University and of the Ilichi-
gan Agricultural college should not
stand in the way of the equalized
valuation of the state being placed
wherever it belongs. Moreover, if the
valuation should be raised to $7,000,-
000,000 it would bring 'us in all $4,200,-
000 annually, and we do not need this
much.
Still BelIeves In Principle
"I want, however, to -make it per-
fectly clear that the University of,
Michigan still believes in the princi-
ple which was represented by an in-
creasing mill-tax with the growth of
the state and of the University. In
other terms, this simply means that.

will be held Tuesday night at the

Delta Chi, national professional journ-

In this "razz" fest every person
present will be "raked over the coals,"s
in a friendly spirit, and four short
skits will be given with the object
of satirizing the different guests. Dan-
quets of this nature have been given
-n many of the larger cities and uni-
versities in the country although this
- is the first time such an idea has
been attempted in Ann Arbor. The
banquet itself will be modeled after
the one held in Washington, D. C.,
by the Press club of that city.
President Marion L. Burton will be
one of the principal speakers at theI
affair. Other speakers will be an-
nounced at a later date. The com-
plete guest list for the banquet will
be in readiness at the end of this
week.
Those who have received invitations
and have not answered them are asked'
to return them as soon as possible'
