"The leople of Wisconsin have
reaffirmed their faith in the fun-
damental principles of the pro-
gressive movement and have re.
enlisted in the struggle to wrest
control of government from the
special interests entrenched at
Washington."-Robert M. La Fol-
lette, Jr., senator-elect,
IS THE JOKE ON US?
Disarmament, which has always
played at least a fictitious part in the
affairs of the nations, bids fair to hold
the center of international attention
in the near future. Since the days of
the Washington conference for the
limitation of naval armaments there
has been active talk of similar con-
ferences for the reduction of land, air,
and under-water forces, and now the
Locarno Security pact has placed the
continental powers in such a position
that actual disarmament approaches
the stage of reality.
It has been suggested that many
Europeans consider the signing of the
Locarno treaties, without the partici-
pation of the United States, as a di-
rect slap at what they consider the
aloofness of this country. Apparently
it is the European idea that America
imagined herself as holding the only
key to the gateway to world peace,
and in the production of what appears
to be a duplicate key by the, five
great continental powers, they con-
ceive this nation looking dumbfound,
like a speculator after the market has

crashed.
America has no such claims pr de-
sires to the control of the path to
peace,-in fact, it is not at all im-
probable that the nation at large
would prefer ,to see international
problems such as the present one

matically, are unanswerable ques
tions. America is ready to aid a
sane program of international dis
armament, ready to sponsor one i
necessary, but America is not by thi;
attitude seeking internationalo wer

"WOMAN'S PLACE"
At the inauguration of Presi1en
Clarence Cook Little on November 2
women students will be members o
the honor guard. For the first dm
in the history of the University the:
will share with the men the hono
which has always been held by th
latter alone.
The honor guard, which first cam
into existence at graduation cere
monies, is composed of students wh
have been outstanding scholasticall
or in campus activities. It was forn
ed for the purpose of giving di. tine
tion to those who deserved it.
President Little desires to have th
students take an active part in th
ceremonies in connection with hfi in
duction into office. He feels ttat th
University really belngs to the stu
dents, and hle does not vish to hav
them excluded from any of its Nvari
ous activities. This alone is ail ad
mirable stand.
There was a time, in the dim dar
past, when women were stra.ng
creatures on thehcampus,. With an
radical change there is botund to la
a certain amount of dissatisfactio
and when wvomen first made their ap
pearance at . Michigan they were no
received with cordiality.
The time has come for women to b
given their proper recognition. The

life and activity of the campus.
The recognition of women's right
here is the natural outgrowth of
similar movement throughout th
world. Women have but recently se
cured the franchise and undertake
the task of assisting in the govern
ment of4 the country. That they ar
able to do this is proven by the sue
cess of Texas' woman governor, "Ma
Ferguson.
Movements which develop slowly
such as this has, are inevitable. The
must have good in them or they woul
die because of the very slowness o
their growth.
The Chicago Tribune says that th
Prince of Wales, posing as a womai

"I do not intend to allow another

In that striking phrase President
Little introduced his plan to keep
alumni closely bound to the Universi-
