Columbus, O., Feb. 16, (By A. P.)-
Ohio State in a Big Ten basketball
game here tonight obtained ample re-
venge for its earlier defeat by Michi-
gan, holding the Wolverines to three
baskets and the short end of a 32 to
13 score. Miner and Cunningham
starred for the Ohioans and the of-

never gave up trying but its efforts
were futile, Ohio taking the lead at
the start and never being seriously

victory kept Ohio State in the running1

Cooley Calls I
.Reforestation
'Greatest Need
In a communication to James Hart-
ness, newly elected president of the
American Engineering Council, Dean
Mortimer E. Cooley of the Colleges of
Engineering and Architecture and past
president of the American Engineer-
ing Council expressed his opinion
with regard to the reforestation
problem.
Portions of the letter which appear-
ed in the February issue of the Ameri-
can Forest and Forest Life magazine
follows:
"It has been one of my ambitions to
do something worth while in refores-
tation. I consider it the most vital
factor in the future welfare of the
country. Looking into the future no
further than 75 to 100 years, I can
see conditions arising, if our cut-over
lands remain barren, which will makeM
it very difficult, if not impossible, to
live in this north temperate zone of
ours-certainly not in the way we are
now living.
"We are rushing at breakneck speed
into a cul-de-sac, which considering
our supposed superior intelligence, is1
the greatest of all human tragedies.
I am conscious this sounds dramatic.
But I say to you that we of our day
are living examples of the five foolish
virgins. What shall we answer when
called to account for our stewardship
-not at the judgment day, but no
further than the day of our children's
children?"

"Diplomatic technique in the future
will consist of bringing nations to-

declared Raymond Blaine' Fosdick,
eminent authority on international re-
lations, in a speech delivered in Na-
tural Science auditorium last night.
Prof. Jesse S. Reeves, head of the po-
litical science department, introduced
the speaker.
In tracing the advances of society
during the past 100 years, Mr. Fos-
dick asserted that these developments
are directly responsible for the status
of present international relations. The
affairs of the world are linked to-
gether, stated the speaker, and this
interdependence warrants a medium
such as a council of nations where ex-
pression may be given, by way of con-
ference, to problems affecting the en-
tire universe. As a specific illustration

Every state of the middle west was
represented at the opening registration
of the eleventh annual conference onI
highway engineering, here yesterday._
Between 200 and 300 highway engin-
eers and road commissioners attendedj
the opening sessions of the assembly,
sponsored by the engineering college
in co-operation with the Michigan
State Highway department and the1
Michigan Association of Highway Coin-
niissioners and Engineers. Those in I
charge expect that at least 200 more'
highway men will arrive before the
conference adjourns Thursday morn-
ing.
Mortimer E. Cooley, dean of the en-
gineering college, welcomed the vis-
itors to the University in an addressE
given at a smoker last night in the'
Union. He spoke for President Marion
L. Burton, 'who due to illness, could
not as in past conferences, greet the
visiting engineers at the opening ses-
sion. Dean Cooley stressed the mutue-
al benefits arising from association
with the University of the professional'
groups in the state. Referring to one
of the questions facing the adminis-
trators of state highways, he indicated
the importance of immediate consider-
eration of the problem of financing,
brought about by the immense in-
crease in the scale of construction dur-i
ing recent years.
lion. Frank F. Rogers, State High-
way Commissioner of Michigan, speak-
ing immediately after Dean Cooley,
indicated that the' question of highway
financing would be umet by the new gasr
and weight- taxes. Ile revealed that
the situation is rapidly approaching
the point where the user of the high-
ways .must cointribute to the, cost of
construction and ,nmaintenance of statef
highuways. He continued with a sum-
marized report of the work of the
highway department during the past
three years. The commissioner said
that since the floating of the largef
bond issue in 1921, the state has. con-
structed a total of 3398 miles of im-
proved roads of all types, as well as
244 bridge structures over 30 feet
in length. During the 1924 season, he!
pointed out, more concrete pavements
were laid than in any previous year,
and that at present there is a paved
thoroughfare from Detroit to Clii-
cago without a significant break.
Hailed as "The Father of Good
Roads in Michigan" by his colleagues,
Horation S. Earle of Detroit, former
State Highway Commissioner of Mich-I
igan, outlined convincingly the value
of good roads to the citizens of the
state.
During the afternoon session, J. T.
Donoghey, State Highway Engineer,
Wisconsin Highway department, spoke
on "Wisconsin Methods of Mainten-
ance of Gravel Roads." F. IA. Betts,
Superintendent, Board of County Road I
Commissioners, Menominee County,
discussed "Bituminous Surface Treat-'
ments of Gravel Roads in Menominee
County, Michigan."
Ziet Retires
After Serving
Four Decades
{ Thirty-seven years of uninterrupted
service is the record of Professor
Alexander Ziwet, of the mathematics
department, whose resignation was
accepted at the last meeting of the
Board of Regents. Professor Ziwet
plans to retire at the end of the cur-
rent school year, and at that time he
will write finis to his activities which
started in 1888, when he first took
up his duties as an instructor here.
Born in 1853 at Breslau, Germany,
he received his degree in civil en-
gineering at the Karlsruhe Polytech-
nikum in 1880, after which he was on
the United States Lake Survey for
two years. In 1882 he served with the
United States Coast and Geodetic Sur-
vey until 1887, then taking his posi-
tion here. Professor Ziwet has been
head of the mathematics department
since 1904.
He is well known throughout the
country as the most versatile and gen-
erally scholarly of American mathe-
maticians. He is well versed in-more
than eight modern languages and is
well read in most fields of classical
language and literature. Professor
Ziwet is the writer of a book on
"Theoretical Mechanics." He colla-
borated with Peter Field to write an
"Introduction to Analytical Mechan-
ics" and with L. A. Hopkins he is the
author on "Analytic Geometry and
Principles of Algebra." Besides he
has written several papers on me
chanics.
Dean A. H. Lloyd, of the graduate
school, characterized Professor Ziwet
yesterday as one of the "most helpful
men that the university has had."

TO LIFT MILL-TAX
Badly Needed Museum and Architec-

structed With Fund
Requests for an appropriation of
more than three million dollars, to be
used for new buildings and land, and
for an increase in the annual main-
tenance fund by the removal of the
limit in the present mill-tax law will
be laid shortly before the State legis-
lature, it was learned yesterday. Al-
though not official, it was understood
that the bills authorizing these meas-
ures are already prepared and in the
hands of legislators.
The appropriation of $3,192,700, if
granted, would be used for the con-
struction and equipment of a new
Administration building, a new Mu-
seum, a new Observatory building,
and an Architecture building. The
lifting of the mill-tax law would mean
a substantial improvement ini the per-
sonnel of the faculty, increased fa-
cilities for maintaining the present
mechanical equipment, and substan-
tial increases in the salaries of the
teaching staff, many of whom have
been on the waiting list for salary
raises for years.
It is believed the University. will
base its request for a lifting of the
mill-tax law-the law through which
the University has received the major
portion of its operating income for 50
years-on the fact that increased ex-
penses now make the present mill-tax
income woefully inadequate. The
enormous expansion in the number of
students instructed has placed a
strain on the present faculty which
cannot longer be borne; University
officials have long seen that there
I must either be a substantial curtail-
ment of enrollment, or else that there
must be a drastic reduction in operat-
ing expenses. It is pointed out that,
were the latter measure necessary,
educational standards would suffer
greatly.
A detailed description of the Uni-
versity's requests has not ypt been
made known, but it is believed that
they will be placed before the. legisla-
ture in the near future.
