At the conclusion of the clinics by University physicians, Dr. Jacques Forestier, of the Hospital Nekkar,. Aix Les Bains, France, demonstrated his findings in the use of iodized oil in the X-ray examination of the re- spiratory cavities. Dr. Forestier is attending the Congress as an espe- cially invited foreign guest.

This clinic was not on the regular program, being given by spe- cial request. It has already been given once in Detroit and is to be re- peated there tomorrow. The physicians had lunch at the University hospital after which they were taken through the building. Busses then carried them to the Union where the afternoon meeting -was held.

Pointing out that one-fourth of the entire population is always engaged in going to school, Mr. Hoover told the delegatessthat "ourrpublic schools are the real melting pot, pouring out' a new race." "No nation in the world's history has so devotedly believed in and so deeply pledged itself to free universal1 education," lie said. "In this great experiment, America marches in ad-' vance of all other nations. Thehspirit of democracy can survive only through universal education. Education must stimulate ambition and must train character." Group meetings of the convention continued to debate various angles of educational problems today while a joint congressional committee heard opponents of the Curtis-Reed bill, which .would establish a federal de- partment of education headed by a secretary with cabinet rank. The convention's legislative committee sev- eral days ago recommended that the school superintendents endorse the measure. EDMONSON ELECTED HEAD DF RESEARCH COMMITTEE~ Prof. J. B.

SHOULD BEGOM E LA TO DAY BARRING SLIP-UP iMEASURE TO BE PRESENTED TO PRESIDENT THIS MORNING FOR SIGNATURE GIVEN LAST CHECKf .Exeentive Will Sign In The Presence Of Treasury And Congressional Officials In ills Office (By Associated Press) WASHINGTON, Feb. 25.-Barring a slip-up in plans the tax reduction bill will become law tomorrow. Announcement that President Cool- idge would sign the measure at 10 o'clock was made late today al! the White House after the engrossed copy had been received from Congress and sent to the treasury for a last minute check for possible flaws. Reference to the treasury was large- ly a formality as Secretary Mellon had expressed approval of the bill's pro visions, although, its estimated $387,000,000 reduction in taxes exceed- ed the maximum he and his assistants had declared was safe. While department experts were ex- amining the final draft of the proposal, Mr. Mellon went to the White House to recommend personally to the pres- ident that he give it approval. The executive's signature will be af- fixed in his office in the presence of treasury and congressional officials and others. Secretary Mellon, Chair- man Green, of the House ways and means committee, author of the meas- ure, and Chairman Smoot, of the Sen- ate finance committee, who was in charge of it in the Senate, are among those invited to be present. In his comment on the bill Mr. Mel- lon said the government should have little difficulty in meeting its financial needs after the revised schedules be- came effective if Congress exercised caution in authorizing new appropria - tions. Secretary Hoover, discussing the probable effect of the legislation on business, predicted it would result in added savings for investments and consequently benefit business gen- era lly. The Commerce d partmient head said he foresaw no slump in business and industry that would serve further to reduce revenue with a possible treasury deficit resulting.

As an organization they have received the highest praise from not only the Lon- don Times and the London Morning Post, but from French and Spanish critics as well, who pronounced them to be "a quartet unsurpassed by any foreign country that has ever visited us." Besides possessing the exceptional merit credited to them above, they have also elicited praise from many American critics for their presenta- tion of the entire cycle of Beethoven quartets in one week, while in the field of original composition the com- pany has composed over 100 new works. Included in the program toj be given tonight will be the fairy suite "The Pixy Ring" composed by Waldo- Warner one of their members.

I AADMYMEETINGI Melhigan Academy Of Science, And Letters Will Convene here March 31 Arts, ADDRESS BY ITTLE ENDS REAL ESTATE MENS SCONFERENCE PRESIDENT DESCRIBES RELATION OF PROFESSION TO PRESENT EDUCATIONAL SYSTEM STRESSES SERVICE Prominent Realtors Of Western Cities Discuss New Methods In Sub- Division and Financing President Clarence Cook Little spoke at a luncheon yesterday of the program of the conference of brokers and subdividers, held under the joint auspices of the Michigan Real Estate association and the School of Busi- ness Administration, which closed a two-day session yesterday afternoon at the Union. President Little spoke on the subject of the way the real estate profession and business in gen- eral work into the system of educa- tion. "Unlike other professions, that of real estate deals with people in their normal state; therefore its contact with education should have a normal basis," said President Little. "As ducation is the development of in- elhigence, a proper understanding of youth is the objective factor in the ontact between education and busi- ess. Under the present system, a youth goes into business as an ap- prentice, working for almost nothing o have his chief impart to him ideas tnd habits peculiar to the trade which he chief himself has acquired :hrough years of painstaking effort. I h1milarly, under the present system, :he boy or girl comes to the Univer- ity for facts. Educators in the past ave fallen too nuch into the pitfall >f facts." "The proper syst em," President ittc said, "is to realize that the boy nd girl really exist. To create .ought within their minds is the only ay to bring them up. It is no kind- ess to a young man for the univer- ity to admit him if he is unable to withstand the rigors of a higher edu- ation. In fact, it is criminal to allow n who is unprepared to undergo raining; it is a wasting of the most raluable period of his life. Instead >f trying to make them do what you want them to do, one should show hem what they may be able to do. iviization, happniess, and spiritual rogress should be built for people, tot for things." President Little urged the realtors to joinwith the university in this hift of emphasis. At the first session yesterday morn- [ng, Harry F. Menard of Detroit, a nember of the firm of Clemens, Knight, Menard Company, spoke on! 'Subdivision Planning and Develop- nent." Mr. Menard stressed the idea hat in order to be successful and to be fair to the prospective purchasers, realtors should plan and develop their ubdivisions so that every prospective home-builder should enjoy the most complete satisfaction possible. Mr. Menard carried out the idea express- ed at the beginning of the conference that service is the essence of the rokerage business.' After a discussion of Mr. Menard's alk, George F. Nixon of 'Chicago, who haeads the firm which bears his name, outhined a subdivision selling plan which purported to clear up some questionable points in the selling end of the realty business. He, too, stress- ed service as the most important fac- tor, and that realtors should secure efficiency without thought of money, and should aim to give better service to buyers in the way of better plan- ning of subdivisions. At the afternoon session, Robert F. Bingham of Cleveland, spoke on "New Developments in Real Estate Finance." He stated it is very important that in- tended home owners should be financ- ed when they cannot do so them- selves, because a country populated with home owners was 'safe from bol- shevism. There is a need for a more simplified systemand lower rates for loans to home-builders, said Mr. Bingham, and he ' suggested that amortized land certificates be used in commercial real estate financing. He also declared there was a need of more information for realtors about industrial real estate subdividing and home financing. Asher L. Cornelius of Cornelius and Dolan, Attorneys-at-law in Detroit spoke after the discussion which fol- lowed Mr. Bingham's talk. He em- phasized the need of an elementary knowledge of contract forms by real- tors as necessary to successful sales. A similar convention in connection with the building end of the real es- Senator LECTURES TO BE GIVEN# Prof. Charles if.

The speaker declared, F that "not even the sacred courts of our land are free from the poisonous p taint of the league's filthy hands and sE breath." Characterizing as an "inexcusable i lie" an assertion last Sunday by Mr. Wheeler that "prohibition had i been a success", Senator Edwards said a the league counsel's "peeweedmind I and mental incapacity for drafting facts makes him immune to the con- i vincing truth that prohibition is a $ failure." f Senator Brookhart told his audience the complete answer to the claims A that the 18th amendment did not rep- I resent the majority of the American p people was found in its universal rati- i fication by the states. "I therefore conclude that the American people may modify the Vol- stead act but when they do it they will have to make it stronger and not weaker.
