Dawes, no long er amused at continuous debate I the Senate to delay a decision on th World Court question, has resume, his fight for revision of the rules t curb extraneous discussion. After sitting for hours in the Sen ate yesterday listening to opponent 3of American adherence to the cour deliver speeches and read a magazin article written in 1893, Mr. Dawes' ex asperation led him to a radio micro phone to broadcast anew his protes against such tactics. He spoke with so much vigor at time that the microphone, not attuned t( such vehemence, sent forth onli squawky vibrations. . Although un seen by his audience, Mr. Dawes fel impelled to emphasize his remark: with powerful gestures. As a resul the speaking stand he used was al most shattered by raps from his fists The stand had been constructed es. pecially for President Coolidge. The Vice-President's impatience was not lessened by the fact that leaders of both sides in the court fight are conducting negotiations to set a date for a vote on the adherence reso- lution. The main point of difference is whether the vote shall precede or follow consideration of the tax reduc- tion bill. An article written 33 years ago by Andrew Carnegie and which Senator James A. Reed (Dem.) Missouri, caused to read into the record was re- e- g- n o s rt e c- .0 I- Y t s t sL ferred to by Mr. Dawes in his radio speech, whiclr was heard by alumni of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology at dinners in 67 cities. The reading consumed an hour and a half, "and this prompted me," the Vice- President said, "to bring the question of the failure of the Senate rules to your attention." He had prepared the usual alumni address, but changed to his pet subject at the last moment.

Mr." Dow will speak under the aus- pices of the School of Religion, his lecture comprising the seventh 'num- ber of a series offered during the pres- ent semester. The speaker has spent many years in the business, and is now general manager as well as president of the Detroit Edison company. For three years following 1893 Mr. Dow acted as chief electrical engineer to the city of Detroit, and a few years later be- came water commissioner to that mu- nicipality. The degree of honorary Master of Engineering was conferred upnhim by the University in 1911. M Dr.Dow is a member of the British Institute of Electrical engineers, the American Society of Civil Engineers, and the American Institute of Elec- [trical Engineers. Mr. Dow will treat the moral problems facing the busi- ness man of today in the his various professional associations. These lectures have been arranged [in connection with Prof. Kirsopp Lake's seminar in the moral issues of modern life, with the aim of bring- ing prominent men in the various bus- mess and professional fields to Ann Arbor that they may discuss the moral problems peculiar to their fields. Fol- lowing the lecture, the audience will be given an opportunity to discuss with the speaker the problems sug- gested by the lecture. The questions suggested by the speaker will later be discussed in detail by members of Professor Lake's seminar. Announce Change In Physics Course p Announcement hsmade by the physics department that physics 120, with X-ray equipment and apparatus, will be given during the coming se- mester i1 cooperation with the depart- ment of roentgenology of the Medi- cal school. Dr. E. A. Pohle of the department of roentgenology and Prof. G. A. Lind-. say of the physics department will conduct the course jointly. Labora- tory work in the course will be car- ried on partly in the new physics building and partly in University hos- pital. This will provide opportunity fort physics students to familiarize them- selves with X-ray apparatus and ac-1 cessories both as used in physical re- search and therapy. The course is . INCLUDES MANUSCRIPTS Provision was made for funds to t establish two new scholarships at the t University in the will of Mrs. Caroline z P. Campbell, of Grand Rapids, who died Jan. 6. Word has been received by University authorities from the r Michigan Trust company, stating that a large portion of the estate, the value of which is estimated to be between $50,000 and $60,000, will be used as , a foundation for this purpose. The two scholarships for which pro- visions were made, will be for original . research in the history of the North- west territory. One of the scholar- ships is to be known as the "Isaac E. Craig, Founder of the Michigan Public School System, Scholarship Fund"; the other will be called the "John D. Pierce, Organizer and First Superintendent of the Michigan Pub- lic School System, Scholarship Fund". Except for a few small legacies amounting to approximately $4,600, the entire estate will be turned over to the University and the net income will be used for the scholarships. The will also provided for the gift of the laws books of the late James H. Campbell to the law department of the University. The set is said to be large, and valuable. Mrs. Campbell, who was particular- ly interested in the history of the Northwest territory and of Michigan, had in her estate many manuscripts pertaining to this subject. These will become the property of the Univer- sity library. The most important of these manuscripts are contained in the Lucius Lyon collection. Will Discuss Philosophy Of Tolstoy Today Tolstoy's philosophies will be the subject of Dr. F. S. Onderdonk's pic- ture dialogue to be given under the auspices of the newly organized Tol- stoy league at 4:15 o'clock this after- noon in Alumni Memorial hall. This is the first public gathering held by this society, which is founded to make a thorough study of the works of the Russian writer. Dr. Onderdonk is on the architec- tural college faculty. He has been instrumental in founding the Tolstoy league at the University, and recently attracted attention by anti-militaristic speeches. Since his return from Vienna, where he was a student throughout the war he has been lec- turing on a number of subjects in many cities in thiscountry. He is a. student and admirer of the life and work of Tolstoy, and has entitled his lecture of this afternoon "Is Life Worth While", because .he believes that there may be found in that writ- er's work an answer to every prob- lem confronting modern civilization. "Tolstoy," he has said, "is the prophet God has sent to the present age. He is not merely an author of interesting fiction, but his books are valuable treatises on such subjects as war and peace, religion, ethics and sex. Tol- stoy was not a Bolshevist, but he was a progressive thinker who worked to bring enlightened thought to Russia and southern Europe." The dialogue will consist of a ser- ies of pictures chosen from a collec- tion of more than 1000, gathered by Dr. Onderdonk during his stay in Europe. TA MBOURINE" APPLICA TIONS OUT SA TURDA Y Coolidge Expresses Hope For Earl Adjustment As He Accepts Letters Of Credence (By Associated Press) WASHING'TON, Jan. 20.-Henry B renger, the new Fench ambassado told President Codlidge today tha "France is rea 1ved to settle the debt contracted forfense as promtly an as fully as present and futur possibilities allow." Presenting letters of credenc to the presiden the ambassador said "with especial regard to the financia settlement of the obligations contract. ed in connection with the'late war France again declares herself true I to the principals of the sancity of in ternational contracts. "Even in the midst of the diflicul ties of restoration which the ravage of the late invasion still cause her France is resolved to settle the debts contracted for her defense and fo that of civilization, as promptly an as fully as her present and future possibilities will allow. "France knows that the economic world cannot be brought back intc equilibrium unless every one in the world meets internal and external ob- ligations by a strict restoration of credit and of confidence. "We are convinced that the tra ditional friendship of the United States will make easier for France a progressive and orderly liquidation of the obligations bequeathed to her by the last war." In accepting the letters of credence, President Coolidge took occasion in his reply to thg ambassador's re- marks to say it wtshis "honest hope that a fair and honorable adjustment" of the Franco-American war debt "will be reached in the near future. "There should be no insurmountable difficulty in arriving at such an ad- justment", the president said, "since you have only reiterated the fidelity of your government to the sancitytof contract and since you know the spirit of loyal friendship in which the American debt funding commis- sion is prepared to discuss the mat- ter." J-Hop To Have Orchestras Of NationalFame With thrree nationally known or- chestras playing the entire evening, the music for thes1927 J-Hop to be held Feb. 5 promises to exceed that of any previous Hop, members of the committee state.

His organizations have played also at Amherst, Columbia, Harvard and Williams colleges. The Royal Canadians broadcast three times a week from the Music Box in Cleveland, and are heard lo- cally often, radio fans state. Zez Confrey, one of America's prom- inent novelty pianists, will lead his Victor recording orchestra of 12 pieces at the opposite side of the gym from Ray Miller's organization. The leader himself is known for his fam- ous "Kitten on the Keys"; among his. other compositions are "Stumbling", "Dizzy Fingers", and "Coaxing the Piano".

Of 3 } a .i i i{t {{1 t : . } RESEARCIH IS VIlTL ,T YO DUCATIONSY LITTLE1IN SpEEcH STUDENT MUST BE CAREFUL TO GET IT IN RIGHT AMOUNT ASSERTS PRESIDENT URGES FRIENDSHIP Shows Need Of Correlating Courses And Finding Common Factors To Aid Memory "Research must be present in re- lation to a general currioulum but it cannot be the sole criterion of judg- ment for educational work," said President Clarence Cook Little in an, address given yesterday before stu- dents of the School of Education. "Research is similar to electricity," Dr. Little said, "a small amount vita- lizes but too great a dose paralyzes and murders. For an example, too much of Dickens cannot be assimi- lated by the immature mind o the high school student, but a little is good." He emphasized the fact that caution is needed to get just the proper amount of research in teaching. It is necessary to have enough to pro- E vide a standard for the course but "many schools are suffering from too much research in scholastic wprk. There is such a thing as too great conservatism due to too great pres- sure in research." Discusses Friendship Dr. Little's second point was in re- gard to the +relation of friendship and fear in the classroom. Many profes- sors conduct courses by a "rule of fear, by first, telling the students what must be done; second, detecting those who fail to do it; third, firing them out of the course." Dr. Little contends that "unless we learn that the mind is fully as import- ant as the method, we are going to be in a bad fix. We only Tequire that the student have a certain number of tools in his knapsack and not that he knows how to use them. We have to determine the second factor. At. present our system is resting on a narrow point of scholastic attainment. We will have to change It so that the point will go up and down a little and balance with the human side." "The same is true in religion but the religious reaction has come sooner because education can' jam its ma- chine-made force into the people for five and a half days a week, whereas religion has only one day. But exactly the same situation is present in both. "The philosophy of friendship will do more than the laying down of rules. If you live by rule and fear alone, where comes the move toward progress? S"Teach not by the right of eminent domain but by the right of superior understanding of the problems of the iindividual student. Friendship rather than fear must be the basis of perma- nent building'. A fairly safe guide in facing situations and a habit that you can develop is to first, look for and find what elements they have in com- muon; second, what tendencies they have to correlate, and unify them. Facts alone mneely cla sified do not in any way meet the situation. Unless you try to correlate your college courses and find something in com- non between your courses you'll not remember them." Reserve Important The principle of organized reserve was next discussed by Dr. Little. "Keepma part of your personality, and your mentality, unpledged, and a part of your physical being in reserve," he advised. With regard to governments, Dr. Little said that the absolute monarchy has too much reserve, thereby killing initiative; a democracy should be bal- anced but there is a great canger of emphasizing efficiency for material profit; communism might be balanced but it is apt to allow disintegration of organized reserve; in an anarchy there is no organized reserve,-the government is entirely turned over to the whims of the people. "The more you use your organized reserve intelligently and pptimisti- cally," - Dr. Little concluded, "the more it will develop." BRUSSELS.--The council of minis- ters approved the bill prepared by Finance Minister Janssen, providing for the consolidation of 2,000,000 francs of the floating debt.
