er stadium, and for a monumental ex-
pansion of the program of "athletics
for all."
There are other things innumerable
things, for which the past University
year will long be remembered by
those who took part in it. It has been
a great year,-perhaps not the great-
est, but there have been none greater.
THE NARCOTIC CONFERENCE
With millions of orientals and hun-
dreds of thousands of Americans
caught in the narcotic traffic, it has
been no phenomenon, to critical ob-
servers that attempts to regulate, pro-
hibit, or limit it have been discourag-
ing failures. Past attempts have been
nullified by the organized efforts of
those who have capitalized on human
degeneracy. China heroically deter-
mined to thwart this blight a few
years ago, suffered, then reverted to
its old vicious habit. Most of the ef-
forts made in the past have been
similar to locking the stable after the
horse is gone. Endeavor has been
concentrated on the attempted cure
E of hopeless addicts rather than in
preventing the spread of the traffic
among the young. It has now been
seen that the only way the evil can
be wiped out will be by a process of
universal education; indeed, this is
the only way that deepseated social
evils can be eradicated.
As a result, there will take place
in Philadelphia within a few weeks
a world-wide conference, representing
the nations concerned, for Itlie pur-
pose of concentrating activity and co-
operation in the extension of pre-
ventative narcotic education. It is
expected that while this conference
will make no immediate and direct
effort to influence international legis-
lation, the benefits coordinating
world endeavor will be invaluable,
and a distinct step taken toward the
eventual solution of the monstrous
evil. With thousands of heroin ad-
dicts in every one of our large cities
and millions of orientals caught in
the clutches of the opium habit, the
task of abolishing the drug evil is a
gigantic one. But it is to the credit
of those setting out to curb it that
they are fully aware of their tre-
mendous job. Perhaps the Philadel-
phia conference will be the beginning
of the distant end.

We have come to the jumping-off
place-the place from which we make
our plunge into the great unknown,
the finals. And so to you we give our
best wishes for good guessing on the
finals, and may the instructor happen
to hit on the part of the course you
studied last night.

Since it is necessary that we study
for our various finals, we have de-

therefore the Daily has had to

DRAMA
"THE GRAND DUCHESS AND THE
WAITER"
A review, by Leston Whitehead.
"The Grand Duchess and the
Waiter", from the French of AlfredI
Savoir, is a gay whimsical bit of
nonsense, as Gallic as "La Vie Paris-
ienne" and embodying the same
subtlety and finesse of expression as
that widely-read periodical. The
plot is too well-known to bear repeti-
tion; the lines are Continental-dan-
gerously so in places; and the cast is
excellent.

THE PASSING SHOW
1925-26
The school year of 1925-26 is rapidly
drawing to a close. Within a fort-
night, the "grave and revered" seniors
will be in the midst of Commencement
week, and then, with the best wishes
of the University, they will depart to
find their respective tllaces on ,the
ladder of success. The graduating1
class cannot be called the best thatj
has ever left these halls, yet it is in-
ferior to none. And as they -leave,
these seniors can look in -retrospect
at this last, their final year.
The year has witnessed the inaug-
uration of a new administrative head,
a man with vision and executive abil-
ity who shows promise of reaching
the Utopian educational heights to
which the late President Burton
aspired. And the year has witnessed,
also, a lessening of faculty resentment;
against these new, these progressive,
ideals.
And as Michigan has advanced in
fields educational, so has she progress-
ed in other fields. Student govern-
ment, formerly but a phrase, has comef
to take a definite, tangible shape, witht
tremendous possibilities for the fu-t
ture. The Union, which during thei
past several years has been regardlyt
more than a structure of brick and
stone, shows promise of regaining its,
old position of prominence. Practi- I
cally every student activity has shown1

CAMPUS OPINION
Anonymous communications will be
disregarded. The names of communi-
cants will, however, be regarded as
confidential upon request.
THERE ARE TWO SIDES
To the Editor:
Your editorials of May 23 and 28th
appear to me to be groundless and
unwarranted attacks against the
French, inspired by a sort of prejudice
which might well be termed "Franco-
phobia." This insidious disease
which seems to have so many middle-
western editors in its grip,-causes
its victims to go out of their way to
compose stories of French wicked-
ness.
To call France the "Arch-offender
against the peace of Europe" is not
quite fair. France has joined the
League of Nations which we have
scorned. She played an important
part at Locarno. What she was forc-
ed to do in Morocco, America and
England have done elsewhere. The
French regime in Africa, especially
under General Lyauty, has been most
praiseworthy.
Our papers frequently call France!
militaristic . Although favorably lo-
cated, we insist on a large navy, as do
the English. Yet we blame the French
for insisting on something better than
"paper security" when they have seen!
their country devastated twice in
fifty years. Germany has a popula-
tion of 65 millions; France 40. De-
spite our unfriendly slurs, I cannot
believe that France brutally assault-
ed Germany in 1914. It is not a ques-
tion of blaming Germany or any oth-
er nation, but a question of. envisag-
ing the very clear facts of the matter.
The French problem should be con-
sidered from a different angle.
Some of us adopt that sickening
"better than thou" attitude toward un-
fortunate Europe. Perhaps if we had
been invaded, had suffered immense
losses in blood and treasure (all that
is forgotten now) and had been re-
duced to a second-rate power finan-
cially, we should demand security.
As to the debt, it is a characteristicj
remark, that of "agonizing cries of
financial strangulation" issuing from1
the French. I believe it was natural
to iesitate to sign a paper pledging
unborn generations to pay vast sumsi
to a country possessing most of theI
gold in the world. As it is, the greater
part of the German reparations willI
be turned over to this country. Per-3
haps some Frenchmen assumed that!
