Frederick Whyte, former president of the legislative assembly of India, in the first of a Series of three lectures, yesterday. It is due to the need for a general reorganiza- tion of British industrial relations, which has developed through the progress of industry and the results of the war, he stated. Sir Frederick will speak again at 4:15 today in the Natural Science auditorium on "The Political Awakening of Asia." "England is paying the penalty for being the pioneer in nearly all kindsI of industry," it was explained, "and many industries are still operating under the smll-scale methods of years ago, without efficient use of re- cently developed scientific improve-' ments. This is one of the two deeper causes of the present situation. On the side of labor, the leaders will not give up ground once gained. The re- strictions on owners which the labor- ers gained 30 years ago must be re- moved in order to give England a freedom of experiment and individual work, such as exists in the United States."l Sees Aid In Politics Sir Frederick asserted that a retorm of industry from within would be pref- erable to one from without, but ex-l pressed a doubt as to whether either the capitalists or laborers would be able to achieve that reform. It will in all probability have to be carried out by one of the political parties, through political action, he said. t If the Conservative party will take1 the broad outlook toward affairs that is shown by the younger leaders of that group, Sir Frederick believes that they will be the ones to effect the necessary reorganization. The Liberal party, of which he was once a repre- sentative in the House of Commons, could .have achieved it, but "committed suicide," and thus forfeited the right to do so, he stated. "The Labor partyf has shown a desire to study the foun- . dations of society, but is tending toward the socialistic methods of pub- lic, control of industry, he continued. That restriction is just what British industry needs most to get away from. "The strike occurred," Sir Frederick explained, "because it appeared that not only the owners, but also the gov- ernment, favored a reduction in wages to meet the lowering demand for coal." The government took a hand last year, and appointed a royal commission to investigate the situation. One of the I recommendations of this commission was, he said, that in certain districts wages would have to be cut in order to enable industry to continue on a profitable basis. The subsidy was to end May 1, and as neither the government or the own- ors had a complete program for con- trolling the situation, Premier Stanley Baldwin offered to extend the subsidy during the period of discussion on condition that the report of the com- mission be accepted. The minersl stated that if they had to accept a report involving a reduction of wages,' they would fit enter the discussion. Out of this argument, Sir Frederick said, grew the strike.- The reason that the strike was not confined toa single industry, lie ext plained, was that the laborers of thei coal industry are not alone in oppos- ing reduction of wages. Other labor- ers knew that if the owners in the, coal business- were successful in car- rying through the reduction, their owners could do likewise. They all feared a wide campaign for lower wages, and that is the only reason that could persuade the railroad men, under James Thomas, to join with A. J. Cook of the milers' union in the first general strike in England since that country became an industrial na- tion. Scouts War Threat Sir Frederick stated that Premier Baldwin's precautions were "not un- necessary," explaining that they were based on an act of 1920, passed in a period of uncertainty, which provides for military safeguards in case of dan- ger. "Premier Baldwin," he asserted, "is a representative Englishman, gen- erous and conciliatory, but still fully conscious of his duties to safegurad Hobbs' Expedition To Greenland Postponed; Funds Insufficient Because of the fact that only a por- tion of funds necessary to launch the University expedition to Greenland this summer has been raised, and it is now too late to complete arrange- ments for the project this year, the expedition, as 'regards its main pur- poses, has been postponed until the summer of 1927, it was announced yesterday by Prof. William H. Hobbs of the geology department. It is pro- posed, however, by Professor Hobbs to make a preliminary trip to the arctic region this summer with a small University party in preparation for the main expedition a year later.- The sum estimated by Professor Hobbs as necessary to defray the cost of the Greenland exploit, and which lie has been endeavoring to raise during the past few months, is $100,000. The total now subscribed isE $9,000, he stated yesterday. Accoiding to present plans, Profes- sor Hobbs will spend two months in Greenland this summer with a party of seven or eight. That this prelimi- ary trip is highly desirable was em- phasized by the geologist, yesterday, who pointed out that its purposes will be to ascertain, more definitely, places to establish meteorological stations inf Greenland; to make other preliminary surveys; and to investigate various problems which will not require ex- tensive preparation. The matter of transportation is now the only problem unsettled for the trip planned this summer, said Pro- fessor Hobbs. There are no regular vessels going to Greenland except Danish government shops from Co- penhagen. A sub-chaser of 300 tons, now in private hands, has been offered for Professor Hobbs' use this summer and negotiations are now under way to procure this. There is a further possibility that the party may make the trip on another special vessel sailing from Canada in July. Arrangements will be continued asj usual for the expedition in 1927, ac- t cording to Professor Hobbs, which will be identical in every respect to the extensive University undertaking originally planned for this year. I GUTHE TO LECTURE'1CHERING SECTION ON PHILIPPINE TRPLASCOMPLETED Will Discuss Findings Of Universityj Expedition To Islands In 1922-24 Set Price For Maize And Blue Outlits To Form "31" At $1 Per Student For Entire Season UNCOVER EARLY RELICS REQUEST 1,200 SEATS Incidents of the University of Mich- igan expedition to the Philippines will be related by Dr. Carl E. Guthe, as- sociate director of anthropology, at 8 o'clock tonight in Natural Science au- ditorium. The lecture is being held under the auspices of Sigma Xi, na- tional honorary society for the pro- motion of research l in both pure and applied sciences., Under the leadership of Dr. Guthe, the University museums sent an arch- aeological expedition to the Philip- pines in 1922. The party remained until the latter part of 1925 and, in all, made 20 trips to the southern half of the islands. The greater share of the travelling was made in a 75 foot schooner furnished to the expedition by Dean C. Worcester, '89. Mr. Wor- cester is noted as having been an im- portant factor in the history of the Philippines. During the three years the expedi- tion attempted to find evidences of old Philippine manners of living. Searches were made in burial places, in both caves and graves. A large amount ofaAsiatic porcelain and pot- tery and also a great quantity of ear rings, bracelets, and other trinkets were discovered. The material found in the burial places was obtained from merchants who travelled from China in junks. The findings of the expedition show- ed that the Philippine Islands had communication with the mainland as far back as 1000 A. D. MIMES WILL GIVE FIRST O'NEILL PLAY TONIGHT "S. S. Glencairn" To Conclude Year's Dramatic Program Beginning a run of four scheduled performances onWednesday, Thurs- day, Friday and Saturday nights of this week, Eugene O'Neill's cycle of sea plays the "S. 5. Glencairn" will be presented at 8:30 o'clock tonight in the Mimes theater. This is the first presentation on the campus of any of Eugene O'Neill's plays by the major dramatic societies, and it is thessecond performance ever given of this group, the first being by the Provincetown player of New York. The cast of the play, which jhas been in rehearsal for the past six ' weeks, is entirely masculine. Two dress rehearsals have been given, and have received the approval of the directors, E. Mortimer Shuter, assisted by Robert Henderson, '26. Roy Hoyer, leadiig man of Fredj Stone's "Stepping Stones" who is in Ann Arbor training the choruses for the 1927 Vnion opera, attended the last rehearsal and pronounced it com- plete. Special scenery has been de- signed for the "S. S. Glencairn" in the Mimes workshop and music for each act has been written by Milton Peterson, '27L. Arrangements for Michigan's new cheering section to be instituted next fall were completed yesterday when the price to be charged for the maize and blue outfits to form the "M" was set at $1 per student, for the entire season. A formal request for 1,200 seats reserved for male undergraduate students has been sent to the Athletic association by the Student council and will be granted, according to officials of the association. The outfit, consisting of a hat of feltj on the order of an "M" hat; a square' of cloth of a heavy material to be worn over the shoulders; and a mega- phone, colored in harmony with theI rest of the material, will be purchased by the Student council through George Moe's Sport shop. Additional supplies to replace those lost or destroyed during the season will also be availa- ble at the same place. The cheering section, a living blockI "M", will occupy seats in section E in the south stands, all of section F, and seats in section G, and will ex- tend from row 15 up to row 44 inclu- sive-totaling 1,200 seats. Tickets for this section will be marked "cheer- ing section," with no numbers indi- cated; a block "M" will be drawn in the stands, and after meeting at the Yost field house, men in the section, will enter in a group and fill in thej block of seats, those; in blue forming the "M" and those in yellow the back- ground. No cheering section seats will be is- sued to students who have not regis- tered with the council and paid for their outfits. Registration will be held at Waterman gymnasium during theI regular registration week in Septem- ber and will be limited to seniors, juniors, and sophomores during the first week. If the quota of 1,200 is not reached, it will be filled by allow-i ing freshmen to sit in the reservedI section. EDITOR WILL DISCUSS JOURNALISM TOMORROW, IBlngay To Expln Material Side Of Newspaper Work Journalism, its opportunities and requirements, will be the subject of a lecture by Malcom W. Bingay, manag-I ing editor of the Detroit News, Thurs-! day afternoon at 4:15 o'clock in Nat-1 ural Science auditorium under the auspices of the vocational guidance committee of the Student Christian association. Mr. Bingay has for 251 years been connected with the News,I starting his journalistic career as copy-boy and graduating through the Ivarious stages to his present position. He has also been sports editor and city editor. In his lecture, Mr. Bingay will speak of the more material side of Inewspaper work, that is, salaries, !fv~na of wrnl S inn', a rsnortori nl L.ONDON BEIEVES 'STIKE SOLUTION ~ILL COME EARiLY BUSSES AND TRAMS REPLACED BY MOTOR CARS IN CITY STREETS THRONGED {Men Form Long Lines When Bulletins Of Strike's Progress Are Displayed (By Associated Press) LONDON, May 4.-London met its 1 novel experience of a general strike' with all its manifold inconveniencesj r with good humor. The almost uni- versal opinion of the populace is that1 the strike will not last many days. In 1 its varied aspects it was a new thrill for the people. London was converted from an om- nibus and tram city to a motor car city today. The main streets looked the same; in the busy shopping cen- ters there were fewer well-dressed idlers than customary, but the absen- tees, frightened by the strike, were replaced by another class of idlers, men deprived of their occupation by the strike, whb wore an air of listless curiosity. They formed into long lines whenever new bulletins of the prog- ress of the strike were displayed, this being the only available method of distributing the news in the almost complete absence of newspapers ex- cept an occasional bulletin broadcast by radio. The streets presented a new pano- rama of swiftly moving traffic, dan-E gerous to pedestrians. The usual in- ending lines of trams and busses were replaced by automobiles. Thus far the strike has been orderlyE and well conducted. A government spokesman in a radio statement today1 admitted that the officials of the1 trades union congress who had under- taken to assist in the voluntary work of maintaining food and other supplies had been as good; while all records received testify to the strikers prov- ing obedience to their leaders. This record, according to the same spokesman, however, had one notable exception, namely that about 10,000 men engaged in the chemical trades in Cheshire, who had been called out by their union, reported for work as usual this morning.- Freshmen Meet For Banquet At' Union Tonight Precedent may be established at 6:15 o'clock tonight when members of the class of '29 gather in the assem- bly hall of the Union for a combined banquet and pep meeting preparatory to the annual Spring games Friday and Saturday. It will be the second Sannual spring banquet of the fresh- man class but it will be the first time i that the assembly before the games has been in the form of a banquet. The underclass department of the Union, with the social committee of the freshman class, is making arrange- ments to serve nearly 500 men. William L. Diener, '26, president of the Union, will act as toastmaster. Joseph Finn, '26, as chairman of the class games committee will also speak, as will Lester Johnson, '27I, chair- man of the Union underclass depart- ment. One of the features of the evening will be the election of the freshman captain who will lead the class at the games. In t;he past this has been done at pep meetings. For those freshmen who cannot attend the banquet dur- ing the early part of the evening, ar- rangements have been made to per- mit them to participate in the election at 7:30 o'clock. Clinics Conducted For Neurologists J More than 50 members of the Mich- igan Neurological society met yester- day at the University hospital for# clinical and lecture sessions. Dean Hugh Cabot of the Medical school,{ conducted an overative clinic before the organization in the afternoon, and after dinner in the hospital dining room, the society met again to hear 1 several lectures by members of the hospital staff.I 1 Miller To Talk Troops Called To Aid Cities In Rebel Grip (By Associated Press) MANAGUA, Nicaragua, May 4.-Aft- er declaring a state of war today, the government sent a military force to the Atlantic coast to cope with a revo- lutionary movement started by liberals who have captured the towns of Blue- field and Rama. News leaking through from Blue- field, despite a censorship established by the revolutionists, says that the governor and director of police have been imprisoned. A general and two of his soldiers were killed in fighting Sunday, and the rebels are reported to have sacked the national banks.1 Early Sunday morning the revolu- tionists commanded by Louis Belpran I Sandoban and Ericeo Duareto, sur- prised the government garrison, cap- turing Bluefield and imprisoning the governor, Col. Ernesto Solorabano Diaz. CHOOSE CANDIDATES~ FOR NEWCOUNCILS, Noninuations Are Made For Personnel Of Newly-Created Bodies; Elec- tions To Be Held Wednesday REGISTER TOMORROW Nominations of representatives for college councils in the literary, en- gineering, Law, and dental schools were made by the nominating commit-I tee of the Student council yesterday, all of which will be voted on at the spring elections next Wednesday. No nominations were made for the Medi- i cal school council, inasmuch as the election of that body will not be held until fall, and is made entirely within the school. No petitions for nommna- tion to college councils will be re-. ceived by the Student council, the choice of candidates yesterday being complete. The naming of candidates as senior, junior and sophomore representatives in the various college councils yester- day is in accordance with the plan , recently, adopted by the Student council to widen the scope of student government on the campus by estab- lishing councils within the five prin- cipal schools which will function to- gether within the Student council next year. Closer contact with the prob- lems arising in each school is one of the outstanding features that is ex- pected to be the result of the new' system. Each college council will meet separately and function as an inde- pendent unit although subject to s- pervision by the general council. The president of each college council, who will be elected by its representatives as soon as each new body meets, will serve as ex-officio member of the Stu- dent council. Yesterday's college council nomi- nations were as follows: Literary council-(Senior councilmen) Robert Keegan, Tyler Watson, Clayton Briggs, William Warrick, James Day, and Robert Price; (Juniors)-Jack Hed- rick, George Annabel, Paul Endriss, James Hughey, and Gordon Packer; (Sophomores) Harlan Christy, John Knight, and Paul Kern. Engineering council - (Seniors) John Lovette, George Stanley, Thomas Crange, Albert Flindt, Paul Starrett, Charles Center, and Paul Arnold; (Juniors) -James McKilen, Charles Wells, Wayne Cowles, and Lawrence Van Tuyl; (Sophomores-John Gil- martin, Walter Chaffee, and Donald' S Smith. Law council-(Seniors)-Ray Alex- ander, James Boyle, Tred Eickhorn, John Conlin, John Barrett, and red Pinney; (Juniors)-George Haggerty, Charles White, Paul Bruske, and Richard Lawrence . Freshmen will be! chosen next fall. Dental council-(Seniors)--George Meads, Rudolph Larson, Stuart Ward, Howard Mapes, Robert Sealby, and 1 Harris Wilson; (Juniors)-John Gal- yen, Everett Pierson, Glen MacGil-s livray, and Everett Gulden; (Sopho- mores)-D. C. Miller, Harlow Shehan,1 and Stewart DeVries. Registration, which must be made by every student who intends to vote at the spring elections next Wednes- day, will be held on the campus be- tween 9 and 2:30 o'clock tomorrow I and 9 and 1:30 o'clock on Friday.

Adams, custodian of the William L. Clements library,F gave an illustrated lecture on some of the interesting papers from the ar- I chives of Sir Henry Clinton, command-3 er-in-chief of the British armies dur-n ing a greater part of the Revolution-f ary war, at the library last night. 9 Dr. Adams traced the RevolutionaryI war from Lexington to Yorktown as the progress of the conflict can be as-r certained from the papers of Sir Hen-l ry Clinton. The papers of Clinton, along with those of Nathaniel Greene, who was second in command on the American side, were acquired by Mr. WilliamL. Clements several months ago.I This was the first public showing of any of the Clinton-Greene collee-1 Jion. The total number of documents amounts to about 14,000 documents and 'over 400 manuscript maps usedI during the struggle. Parts of a num- ber of the letters from Clinton to 1 Andre, Arnold, Cornwalis, and other British generals were shown on the screen and the originals were on dis- play in the cases. Also there were1 slides of a few of the maps, engrav- ings, and illustrated material which is found included among the papers. The exhibit of the papers in the cases will be on display for the next three or four weeks and will be open to the public from 2 to 5 o'clock daliy as usual.
