GERMANS TO ELECT
CHANCELOR SOON
Dawes Plan And Large Foreign Lon

EXTREMES LOSE GROUND
Berlin, Nov. 28-Nine chancellors
in six years is the record the German
republic has established and as the
election of Dec. 7 approaches there
Is ,much uncertainty as to what the
party alignment will be behind the
tenth man to be ,designated to direct
the affairs of republican Germany.
jD; Wilhelm Marx, the present
chancellor, took over the post Dec.
1,.123, and managed to keep the boat
steady during trying times in spite of
the .fact that he did not represent a
majority government. His handling of
German affairs in the London Confer-
ence which evolved plans for putting
Dawes project into effect, and his suc-
cessin getting the'German Reichstag
to - accept the agreement reached in
the London Conference, were great
achievements.
Jut after the adoption of the Dawes
plea and the successful floating of the
loan of $200,000,000 abroad for the
establishment of a German gold bank
to sIabilize German currency per-
Manently, domestic politics got so hot
that Chancellor Marx was unable to
rebuild his -cabinet in such a way as
to'meet with the demands of the var-
ions parties at the extreme right and
the extreme left. On Oct. 20 he ad-
vised: the dissolution of the Reichstag
that a new election be held to select a
Reichstag which may better represent
majority opinion and make it possible
to form a coalition cabinet which shall
have the support of a coalition of
parties in the legislative body.
This election will take place Dec. 7.
It is impossible to forecast the result
with any definiteness because of the
multiplicity of parties and the religi-
ous,! racial and political cross-cur-
rents in Germ'any which segregate
small groups and prevent the develop-
ment of two or three really outstand-
ing parties, such as exist in most par-
liamentary governments.
It is quite generally predicted, how-
ever, that both the extreme right and
the extreme left will lose strength in
the coming election. Communistic
leaders and ultra-nationalistic leaders
of the extreme right both apparently
have lost ground. World revolution
promises held out by Communist lead-
ers have failed to materialize so often
that German workmen are losing faith
in promised world upheavals as pos-
sible cures for Germany's ills.

LonUdon, Nov. 28--Prohibition may
or. ma not have been in effect 3,299
years ago, but recent gifts to the Brit-
i ; Museum indicate that the ancient
Egyptians were at least affected by
a thirst for something stronger than
2.75 percent beer.
One of the gifts is a pottery pocket
fIask,. similar in shape to those ex-
hibited in the windows of many jewel-
ers today and of sufficiently large
capacity to gratify the most thirsty.
The other consists of fragments of a
geat vessel upon which is boldly
painited the inscription:
"Beer Which Ignores Dreams."
The inscription, in the form of early
hierglyphics, depicts a jar, with three
atrokes to indicate a number of jars;
then the symbol for "ignores,"-an
owl representing knowledge, and a
pair of hands turned down to denote
"nothing doing"-a chicken, denoting
sound, and an eye, denoting wakeful-
ness. Officials of the Museum vouch
for the translation of the devices.

Other archaeological finds have indi-
cated, according to museum officials,
that beer was the great beverage of
the Egyptians 3,000 years ago.
Class Pays Visit
To Detroit Office
Prof C. B. Gordy's classes in shop
management visited the Western
Union Telegraph company in Detroit
Tuesday. The object of the visit was
to study, under actual working con-
ditions, the planning and alloting of
work.
'This was the sixth company visited
this year by these classes, previous
visits being to the Michigan Central
Repair shops, Ford plant at River
Rouge, Kent-Owens Machine company
of Toledo, Detroit Press Steel coim-
pany, and the Paige Motor Car com-
pany in Detroit.

Orchestras Help
Support Students
During the football season 200 stu-
dents find employment in orchestras,
according to Phil Diamond, orchestra
manager.
Of these, 35 are in orchestras with
regular schedules and the others at
such times as there is an increased
demand for them as there is during
the football ,games, jaround J-Hap
time and in the early spring. a
Some of those musicians playing
this year who have just entered col-
lege have been previously several
years on the stage, but after gradua-
tion very few ever go into professional
work.
A very small percentage of the play-
ers pay their entire way through
school with the proceeds of their,
work; the greaterpnumber do not,
however, and there are quite a few
who do not need the money at all but
are playing for a pastime.
Student orchestras are in great
demand for out-of-town dances dur-
ing the winter and in the summer
practically all of them play at summer
resorts and on lake steamers.

MELTS IRON AND STEEL
Installation of the large standard
electric furnace presented to the en-
gineering shops department recently
by the Detroit Electric Furnace
company, has been completed, accord-1
ing to Prof. H. L. Campbell of the
metallurgical engineering department.
The furnace which is of 200 pounds
capacity, is installed in the foundry
laboratory on the fourth floor of the
East Engineering building.
Temperature as high as 6300 de-
grees fahrenheit, the temperature of
the electric arc and the highest tem-
perature ever reached, are obtainable
in the new machine. It is to be used
in research work for melting cast
iron, steel and non-ferrous metals
such as bronze and brass. Professor
Campbell emphasized that this fur-
nace was not an experimental ma-
chine of small size, but a standard
capacity machine similar to those
used in the Highland Park plant of
the Ford Motor company.
The acquisition of the furnace by
the shops department makes available
facilities for research posessed by
few universities in the country. The
extremely high cost of the equipment
putting it beyond the reach of the
majority of schools.
