CRIME REDI)CTION
The National Crime commission, in-
cluding in its membership such not a-
bles as F. Trubee Davison, the lon.-
Charles E. Hughes, Newton D. Baker,'
and lRichrad Washburn Child, has
completed its preliminary organiza-
tion and will begin active work in aI
country-wide campaign which will en-
deavor to bring to light the defects in
the administration of criminal justice
in the United States.
This commission has no intention of
relieving public officials of their nor-
mal responsibilities, out will make
available all the facts of their re-
search work "upon wiich intelligent
and assured conclusions and decisive
action can be accepted and under-
taken" to check crimes of violence in
this country.
The suppression of crime and law-
lessness is apparently the most vital
necessity in this period of rank dis-
order. The efforts of this commission
will be dedicated to a swift and sure
justice that will discourage the prac-
tice of the criminal and reduce the
open flouting of public order. It will

BATHIROBEITIS
This disease which makes people
walk the street of our fair city in
highly colored bath robes seems to be
contagious. It also seems to be par-
ticularly spreading among the young-
er females. There seems to be no ex-
planation of it, either from the point
of view of the psychologists or the
physicians.-
From a nonscientific outlook, we
cannot explain it. We have noted1
carefully the mannerism of those who
seem thus afflicted, and they do not,
generally speaking appear to be blind
or "queer." They walk and talk in
quite a normal way, and do not seemI
to have anything particularly peculiar
in their private lives.j
Were it but one person, that would
be easily explained on the ground
that he had read some health book or
something, or wanted publicity. But
when a large number becomes thus
affected, that's not so easy classified.
We think it is a combination of
color blindness and lack of aesthetic
judgment, and also probably a slight
disease of the cold nerve ends. Pos-
sibly it is also a desire-to-be-noticed
complex. Anyway the medical pro-
fession ought to have a conference on
the subject.

SEDITORIAL COMMENT
TOMORROW AFTERNOON: The
Bonstelle compny in "The Swan" by
Ferene Ioinar in the Whitney theater
at 2:15 o'clock.
OF COURSE TO'RE GOING
Len Shaw of the Detroit Free Press
wrote the following criticism of Mol-
nar's "The Swan" which the Bmon-
stelle company are to present in the
Whitney theater tomorrow afternoon
at 2:15 o'clock under the auspices of
the Ann Arbor branch of the American
Association of University Women:
"Those who witnessed the perform-
ance at the Bonstelle Playhouse re-
mained to applaud the mgst brilliant
achievement of Miss Bonstelle and her
associates since she became the oc-
cupant of the midtown theater that
bears her name.
"This comedy of royal love and in-
trigue is perhaps the most satisfying
of the Molnar writings. It is Molnar
I in a gay mood, yet not unmindful of
the serious moments in the lives of
the people he so skillfully satirizes.
Its retelling by the Bonstelle company
is acted with superb skill. It is mere-
F ly stating a fact that at the hands of
the Bonstelle compny 'The Swan'
takes on a warmth and a humanness
which was not always in evidence
during its New York presentation.
"Jessie Royce Landis, assuming her
first assignment of consequence since
she joined the Bonstelle company,
plays the Princess Alexandra with
flawless finesse. To a truly regal
beauty there is added a dignity such
as becomes the young woman riled
by filial fear and an inherited craving
for wealth and station until love as-
serts itself. Then the breakdown of
assumed haughtiness is contrived with
a deftness and a depth of feeling that
makes it a notable characterization.
Miss Landis may accomplish much in
the months to come, but her Alexan-
dra will always remain a brilliant
memory.
"Only praise can be bestowed upon
Donald Cameron as the tutor-lover.
Admirably fitted by appearance for
the part, he brings to the task a re-
straint and a shading that makes his
Nicholas Agi a carefully chiseled
cameo, rich in human emotions.
"You should make it a point, finally,
to place 'The Swan' well upon your,
playgoing list. It is an event that
lover of splendid comedy, impeccably
done, should not miss."

Despatches from Princeton in the

also romantic in setting, and plays in
