No. 19 EIGHT PAGES ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN, TUESDAY, OCTOBER 19, 1926 EIGHT PAGES PRICE FIVE CENTS TAKING OF TESTIMONY IN ILLINOIS POLITICAL FUROR ISCONTINUED COMMITTEE RESUMES WORK AFTER THREE MONTHS' RECESS DRY LEADERS TESTIFY Proposal To Expend Between $300,000 And $400,000 For Independent Candidate Is lilselosed (By Associated Press) CHICAGO, Oct. 1.-Delving into Illinois' bitterly contested senatorial campaign, the Senate campaign funds committee heard testimony today about a $300,000 or $400,000 campaign fund raised or proposed to be raised in the interests of Hugh S. Magill, of Chicago, independent candidate. Two dry leaders-F. Scott McBride, national superintendent, and George B. Safford, state superintendent of the Anti-Saloon league-quote a Methodist minister, the Rev. Robert O'Brien of Chicago, as saying that it was pro- posed to expend that amount of money for Magill and that there were enough - "holes" in the corrupt practices act to get by on a big campaign program. Called To Testify Both Magill and the Rev. O'Brien were summoned to appear before the committee for questioning as to the genesis of the Magill candidacy and the financing that has been done to date. This may lead to the summon- ing of a number of other witnesses. Resuming its inquiry here after a re- cess of nearly three months, the com- mittee in the person of Senator Reed, Democrat, Missouri, took no steps looking to an inquiry into the politi- cal situation in Indiana where there has been charges of Ku Klux Klan domination through UniteduStates Senators. Senator Reed stated that he had not decided whether he would go into that subject. Safford and McBride were the prin- cipal witnesses of the day and the former was questioned somewhat sharply by Reed as to the Anti-Saloon league of the Frank L. Smith candi- dacy, in view of the -revelations heret last summer that $250,000 had been spent on behalf of that candidate in the primary and that part of this sumt came from officials of public utilities. Condemns Expenditures , Condemning the expenditure of such sums for political purposes, Safford said his organization realized the fu-I tility of supporting an independent t candidate and consequently had to pick out the dry candidates nominat- ed by the two major political parties.t Safford testified that when the Rev. O'Brien first approached him on the senatorial situation it was with a pro-l posal that the state Anti-Saloon league support Col. A. Z. Smith, state attor- ney of Lake county, stating that in- fluences were at work to get Frank L.f Smith to withdraw.1 To Eliminate Smith Questioned by Reed, the witness saidl O'Brien had told him that it was pro- posed to eliminate Frank Smith by having the Coolidge administration give him an appointment to office.- Both Safford and McBride quoted O'Brien as saying that even if Magill could not be elected his candidacy would at least result in the election of George E. Brennan, the Democratic senatorial nominee.t Paris Philosopher ' To Lecture Today In Science Building, Professor Emeritus Lucien Levy-J Bruhl, professor of history of modern1 philosophy at the Sorbonne in Paris, will lecture at 4:15 today in Natural Science auditorium on the subject: 'Primitive Mentality." P r o f essor J~evy-Bruhl is the author of several 'books on philosophy and this lecture! is based on the material in a book of the same title, Which contains all oft the lectures given at the Lowell insti- tute, Boston, in 1917. At this time Professor Levy-Bruhl was the ex-1 change professor of the University of Paris at Harvard.

The lecture here ist Patton Believes Social Life In Large School More Broadening Than In Small SERIES OF MEDICAL TALKS TO BE OPENED BY WILLIAM DARR CH Statistics Show Union Accommodates Great Crowds On Football Week-Ends In the opinion of Dr. Carl Safford Patton, of the Chicago Theological seminary, social life at a large uni- versity such as Michigan affords a broadening influence which is far greater than' that obtainable in the small college. "I believe that the life is more liberal and more human in a large co-educational institution- far more so than at a small men's or wo- men's college," remarked the former Ann Arbor minister in an interview following his address at the student convocation Sunday. Dr. Patton does not see any excuse for alarm over the trend of modern youth nor does he feel that morals are endangered at a co-educational insti- tution any more than among a segre- gated student body. "If a student, man or woman, is intent upon study -which is really the primary purpose for which he is sent to college-he will take care of the morals, and the rest of it himself. As far as the desirabil- ity of co-education is concerned, it is necessary and unavoidable at a stat university unless separatecolleges for each are established by the state." In contrast to the views of Dr. Al- bert Parker Fitch of Carleton college, on the marriage question, Dr. Patton expressed the opinion that no definite ages could be laid down for marriage. "We cannot say when to marry or REMOVAL OF HARTLEY ISOUGHT IN PETITIONS, Governor Who Dismissed University Head Faces Charges Specifying Violation of Office NEED 97576 SIGNERS (By Associated Press) SEATTLE, Wash., Oct., 18.-A pe- tition for the recall of Gov. Roland H. Hartley of Washington, was filed with the secretary of state today. The petition charges the executive with violating his office and the comI mission of wrong acts in office. Committees of ctiens, including labor union men, immediately prepar- ed to campaign for 97,576 signatures to the petition, the number required for holding a recall election. Recall proceedings against Gover-j nor Hartley are the direct outgrowth of the dismissal of Dt. Henry Suzzalo as president of the University of Washington. Dr. Suzzallo was ousted by a vote of the members of the university board of regents appointed by Hartley. The recall petition charges the ex- ecutive with appointing members of the legislature to administrative posi- tions for the "purpose of preventing; the free expression of the will of the people through their representatives in the legislature.". Concerning ap- preciation and levies for state insti- tutions, including institutions of high- er education, it was charged that the governor "failed; neglected and refus-' ed" to enforce them and since their' passage, "has attempted to prevent and has prevented" their enforcement.' FORMER EDITOR TO TALK TODAY James Schermerhorn,.humorist and orator, will address the Chamber of Commerce this noon at their regularI weekly luncheon, on "The Soul of the City." Mr. Schermerhorn is known as the founder of the Detroit Times and has spent his life in the field of jour- nalism. After nine years as editor of the Hudson Gazette, he became Washing- ton corespondent of the Detroit News for one year and then transferred to the Detroit Free Press as editorial writer and then political editor. In 1900 he established the Detroit Times, which was then known as "Detroit To-' day," continuing as its owner and manager for 21 years. Since that time he has become noted as a speaker on questions regarding the ethics of journalism- and holds, among his ideas, the position that newspapers should be totally inde- pendent of business or social ties. when not to; it depends entirely upon the individuals in every case." Dr. Fitch recently contended that no men should marry before reaching the age of 26. Dr. Patton declared he thought the student convocations an excellent plan and felt highly congratulated when asked to speak at the service last Sun- REGISTRAR PRAISES DEBATE AS MEDIUM OF EDUCATION (By Associated Press) DETROIT, Oct. 18.-Comment- Ing on the progress of the 1926- I192 7 program of the Michigan High School Debating league Prof. Ira M.
