Jose Sidney Wilson years, but it is now to be regretted that some complete settlement was not reached then, for each day brings a greater estrangement between the factions of the great industrial strug- gle. Indeed, Prime Minister Baldwin has issued an ultimatum to the miners to the effect that the government no longer considers itself bound by the offer of a 3,000,000 pound subsidy, and that unless the miners are willing to yield before June 1, it will be' with- drawn. Apparently, the only ray of hope is1 found in the speech of Sir ,Herbert; Smithy in which he asserted if the, u;eciotnlic mines were closed, and the domestic price of coal fixed at a price. that would assure economic wages, and a reduction of wages is still necessary: "I will face the propo- sition." At least, this is attacking the higher wage argument from a sane economic standpoint and would prob- ably result in a r asonable settle- ment. It is to be hoped that the pro- posal will be met with favor by the opposing forces and form the basis for a speedy agreement whereby mining activities may be resumed, industrial equilibrium restored, and the millions of humans saved from the depriva- tions and sufferings of a long eco- nomic conflict. ALL OR NOTHING Throughout the world, those classes of the various social orders which appear to be slighted in the distribu- tion of wealth in comparison with former distributions have become ad- vocates of economic reforms which are often of doubtful practicability. In this category may be placed the H-augen farm subsidy bill, which was recently defeated in the House by a decisive vote, and which is now pend. ing consideration in the Senate. To provide more profitable markets for the farmer, this measure would place one price on agricultural pro- ducts for home consumption and a lower price on them for competition in the foreign trade with the necessary funds to make up the probable losses being supplied by the government. In substance, then, this proposal would resolve itself into a mere sub- sidy with all the inherent defects of this type of government aid. Proof of the futility of this policy is now being furnished by the various subsidies which England is giving to her indus- tries. In view of the economic conditions of the agricultural interests in this country, there is little doubt that they deserve reasonable consideration by the national legislation. In fact, at the beginning of the present session of Congress, many senators and rep- resentatives looked favorably upon co- operative legislation for the farmer, With the adoption of its fanatical policy of subsidy or nothing, how- ever, the farm bloc incurred such op- positionthat it practically precluded the success of its measure. Furthermore, unless this group re- turns to its former sensible program, for which there is still opportunity, it will be solely to blame for the fail- ure of Congress to relieve the situa- tion of the farmer. The American Civil Liberties union of New York had to postpone its meeting the other day because the board of education refused it use of a school. Which will provide more ma- terial for debate when they do meet. Edison says Americans don't want talking movies, because they desire a quiet, restful time at the show. Try the Maj sometime, Tom. 1 WEDNESDAY, MAY 26, 1926 - Night Editor - JO H. CHAMBERLIN RAH-RAHI BOYS Nearly every college has in its folk tales the glamorous story about the time the boys had a riot. It takes college students to put on a good, old fashioned riot, the kind that makesI the inadequate police force "helpless in the throes of superior strength." Such an affair makes goodntalking matter for years to come, and takes its place in the undergraduate mind along with other sacred traditions. Michigan has not been without them, for even in this great school that "rules the west" there is a class of students, imbued with their con- cept of Michigan spirit, who deem it necessary to tear up a theater or raid something or other at least once a year in order to keep their school just as collegiate as old Siwash down east. So the Michigan State college stu- dents who celebrated the defeat of the Michigan baseball team by trying to give Lansing a pink tint have plenty of good company. Didn't the Harvard freshmen just raise the deuce when they couldn't have music with their food? Didn't some school orI other-it is hard to remember now- tear up another school's goal posts after a football victory in the East last fall? Didn't Ohio State just have a near-riot lecause freshmen had used the sacred "long walk?" Perhaps this was the best means those students had to show their school spirit-what- ever school spirit is. But at Michigan State college-in its last exhibition of school spirit- one is led to believe that the entire male- student body participated. At this University, one thing can be said for the students: those who take part in such by-play are of a particular class-a small class and one which is not at all respected. And in addi- tion, one is led to believe by com- parisons that this small class is rapidly growing smaller. So the accusations of the various college critics who assert that the 4 larger universities have less academic emphasis seem untrue. Michigan ap- pears to be approaching the day when no "Harvard freshmen" or "State students" Will be enrolled. s 'D ROLLS WELCOME I APESI TODAY: John Robinson circus will perform this afternoon and evening, NOT in Mimes theater. Brother Apes, you are now mem- bers of Chimpanzees, honorary ROLLS society, and therefore you can now stand the consequences. You have signed over your life, liberty, and pur- suit of humor to this organization, -which aims to deprive you of every- thing but the last. Anthropoid-at-arms, take the first Ape over there near the School of Music window, and make him listen to the practising future-soprano. Now, the rest of you will be still further punished. The Apes will read the manuscripts they have prepared as part of this initiation. Never in all the history of this society have such terrible examples of humor been sub- mitted as samples of humor. How, Apes, can your pride, your conceit, stand it? The Apes will be forced to listen as Ape Yifnif presents his manuscript. Proceed: s * * THE CASE FOR EVOLUTION AS SEEN ON THE CAMPUS FLYSPECK, Mich., May 25, 1926.- (Special to Rolls)-"Yes, there is evolution on the U. of M. campus," said Miss Effie Snorp, former Michi- gan coed, when asked whether she thought there was any evolution on the U. of M. campus. "But," she ad- ded, "in most instances the evolution is downward. Take for instance the professorial hirsute adornments. The oldest faculty members have pretty good sized beards. What I mean is, their beards date, date back to the mid-Victorian era when whiskers WERE whiskers. "Then you take some of the men a little younger," Effie continued, "Their faces are not quite so well padded. 1VMore like Roy D'Arcy was in 'The Merry Widow' than the sort affected by Walt Whitman. And the young in- structors and assistant professors usually don't have much more than a Menjou moustache. That's more like devolution than evolution. It's a bad sign, too. There's nothing I like bet- ter than a man with a good crop of whiskers. Where are the beards of yesteryear?" (At the time of writing Miss Snorp only weighed 197 pounds. She is now 377 pounds heavy, f. o. b. Flyspeck.) Yinif. * * * Enough out of you, Ape Yifnif. Now, the brother Apes will be forced to laugh. Anthropoid-at-arms, make them at least smile at it. The next Ape to to present his ida of humor will be Michael. All Apes must listen. The following subject was assigned to him: * * * POETRY-THE WORST OF THE ARTS I Poetic Muse-Be Gone-Be dead I cannot stand-your awful tread; Your tread of wine-of women-song; Poetic Muse-You done me wrong. Oh, still your ever crying prattle, That's driven me-to losing battle; To losing battle-where I fight; For what I know-Cannot be right. III Oh Rotten Muse-Your breath does stink Give me the bottle-give me drink; A drink-That I may hold myself;, Above this ever scheming elf. IV Oh, Muse of Verse-Pray hear the knell That now does send me-Down to hell; To hell-Because I followed thee; Poetic Muse-You should be me. Michael. With that the meeting will adjourn until tomorrow at the same time. Other initiates will probably be out of the hospital by that time, and we can hear what they have to say for themselves. * * 0 One advantage of the new stadium is that it -provides a more direct route for alunmii coming to the games. And they can get out of town sooner. * * * The Band will get a chance to play all its tunes on the way to a football game now. And students will lose all their pep on the march out. * * We don't blame M. S. C. for having lMUS THIS AFTERNOON: The Students' Recital in the School of Music audi- toriumn at 2:30 o'clock.

Since the dramatic season in Ann Arbor during the sunimer has in the past been-to put it charitably-an uninspired monotone, a group of play- ers who have been prominent in vari- ous campus dramatic societies have united in an organization to be known as "The Players" for the summer sea- son of plays. A different play will be presented for the first six weeks of the summer session on Tuesday and Thursday evenings, with Sarah Cas- well Angell hall as the seat of their barnstorming activities. The members of this company are composed, with a few possible excep- tions, of that group which has made the last dramiatic season in Ann Ar- bor the -most successful in the history of such productions. There are, more- over, two additional members of the company who are actresses of ability who are not students in the Univer- sity; and since this band of prophets will form a very interesting and in- tegral part of local entertainment during the summer, °°a series of thumbnail sketchesi of the actors and actresses might be pertinent. Amy Loomis, has for the past two years, in conj.unction 'ith another, and aided and abette 1 li that gentle- man, been the most prominent figure in this field. As the director of the Junior Girls play and Masques she has created several productions of exceptional character. She was the first woman to grace the masculine casts of Mimes, and in addition has left an indelible portrait of Catherine the Great of Russia in "Great Cath- I erine." Her professional perform- ances have included a season with Eva Le Gallienne in New York. Neal Nyland is a member of both Mimes and Comedy Club, being presi- dent of the latter organization. He has played the love interest in the majority of the campus productions of the year, including the parts of Cheviot Hill in "Engaged," Captain Edstaston in "Great Catherine" and Valentine in "You Never Can Tell." Robert Henderson has had a unique part in the campus productions for the past two years: "actor, critic, columnist, and Vestal Virgin of Cam- pus Dramatics" they style him-and director, manager, publicity agent, producer.... He has perhaps done more for the recent rejuvenation of dramatics than anyone other person. President of Mimes and a member of Comedy Club, he has played Prince Patiomkin to Miss Loomis as Great Catherine in Great Catherine;" Jeppe of the Hill in "Beggarman;" Belinda Treherne, unfortunate lady of sor- rows, in "Engaged;" and the waiter who made the wheels go round in "You Never Can Tell." His profes- sional work has been with Hamilton McFadden in the American theater in Salem, Massachusetts, and with the Gloucester Players in Gloucester, Massachuetts, for two seasons. Lillian Bronson, who with Phyllis Loughton shares honors as the most capable actress on campus has played a rather wide Variety of parts, all with a very definite portrayal and ranging from Claire in "Great Catherine" and as the sympathetic lead in "Why Mar- ry?" to Mrs. Clandon in "You Never Can Tell" and Mrs. Clivedo i-Banks in "Outward Bound." Other members of the company will include Camille Masline, Richard Woellhaf, who was one of the most sensational finds of the year as Smitty in "S. S. Glencairn," 'Frances Horine, Elizabeth Strauss, who is president of Masques, and who played the girl in "Outward Bound." Kenneth King. i IC DRAMA - PONTIAC MT. CLEMENS BUSSES . Leaie Ann Arbor: Mich.

THE WORKERS' REPUBLIC (The Boston Evening Transcript) Feodor Shalyapin, great Russian singer and actor, does not like Ameri- can ways of life, and frankly says that he does not understand them. But- since apparently he does not contem- plate returning to Soviet Russia-he is bold enough squarely to tell Leonid Krassin, Soviet ambassador in Eng- land, that America, not Russia, is the "real workers' republic," since this is the country where the workingman gets what lie works for and what he needs. Mr. Shalyapin might have added. that this is the worker's republic in another sense, since it is here that the worker knows what he does not want' and what is not good for him-whichf is apperently not at all the case in Russia. The American worker knows that he can impress his choice, his will, upon the Government and the legislation of his State and Nation. He has no notion of abdicating his powers by delegating them to a cabal or "commissary" which represents an absurd minority of the working peo- Engineers seek to solve the prob- lems he encounters. In the fac- tory still others put into manu- facture the developments of the laboratory. The field of the Grinding Engi- neer is the whole manufacturing world. t 4 S ! _ t .' n' x s r . t ! G.
