THE WOMEN'S LEAGUE
For the last five years, every activ-
ity of the women on this campus has
been "for the benefit of the Women's
League." Now, it seems, the time is
getting short, there is one year left, in
which to raise the funds necessary to
start the building program which
has for years been the dream of those
interested in the welfare of the women
at Michigan. ' Consequently the wo-
men are staging a campaign this week
which aims at nothing short of raising
$20,000 in life memberships.
Much has been Ead about the bene-
fit to come to women as the result of
this building. The material gain is
obvious and cannot be overlooked, but
the greatest gain is to come, not in
having a meeting place for women,
facilities which will enable them to
carry on more efficiently their extra-
curricular activit s, but rather in the
growth and dex opment of student
life as it is affe& Led by the status of
its women.
The feeling of unity and the con-
Mciousness of self importance which
is bound to follow the success of such
an enterprise will be reflected by the
campusi as a whole. Just as the level
of socicl} is determined by the char-
acter of its women, so the atmosphere
and 'morale of a University is depen-
dent upon the group development of
its women students. The ideals which
fostered the original conception of the
League are still uppermost in the
hearts of those thinking individuals
who are interested in the importance of
the organization. It is only through
group consciousness of the power of
womnen in determining the morale of a
school that that power'can be directed
in the right way. With inadequate fa-
cilities, no opportunity to play the dig-
nified hostess, no building in which all
women may meet on a common
ground, it is difficult to feel a group
consciousness. In fact it is impossible
without this means of central com-
munication to keep the large number
of women even in sympathy with one
another.
The fabric of the organization of
the self-government body among
women is solid and is functioning.
The centralized interest coming from
years of work toward the same end
has strengthened this. This year is
the -time that will determine whether
or not the wom'u can put over what
#ho hav sr ad nnhiiid f. a,-
a shadow across North University
avenue onto the campus, the contacts
made within its walls, the spirit which
will emanate from the ideals of such
a project, will inject themselves into
the very life of the entire student
body. What the Union is doing for
men, the Women's League building
will do for the women.
A WISE COMPROMISE
The decision of President Coolidge
to ask Congress for a ten or twelve
per cent rebate on 1926 income taxes
appears as a very wise compromise
between the demands for tax reduc-
tion and the chief executive's opposi-
tion to it. Primarily, it gives the
country the benefit of the present
treasury surplus, and, at the same
time, guards government efficiency
against a deficit in 1927 which an
actual reduction of the tax rate might
entail.
In addition, it forestalls the expect-
ed fight of Senator Simmons in the
next session of Congress for a $300,-
000,000 reduction which might prove
embarrassing to the Republican par-
ty. Furthermore, if the President
wishes to reduce taxes at a later date
for 1928 campaigning material as
some observers believe (probably er-
roneously), the present action is very
strategic in preserving that move.
WASTE VS. EFFICIENCY
Realizing that normal business
prosperity depends upon the efficient
handling of industrial resources, the
department of commerce is putting
great effort into a campaign to elimi-
nate waste. In reviewing the progress
already made, Secreta'ry Hoover out-
lined the following ten objects as
"major directions for national effort:"
1. Improved equipment a n d
methods in railway transporta-
tion.
2. Wider and better utilization
of natural resources.
3. Enlarged electrification.
4. Reduction of disruptions by
booms and slumps in business.
5. More constant employment
in construction and other indus-
try.
6. Less manufacturing waste by
better utilization of materials and
standardization of products.
7. Research of labor-saving de-
vices and processes. y
8. Cooperative marketing and
better agricultural facilities.
9. Commercial arbitration.
10. Reduced strife between em-
ployer and employee.
In the sense used, the "elimination
of waste" does not imply individual
or willful waste, but refers definitely
to those wastes which may be elimi-
nated solely by cooperative methods.
Success for this program will simply
mean that more will be produced
from the same quantity of materials
and effort. The results will be greater
economic efficiency and higher stand-
ards of living for all classes.
The department of commerce, how-
ever, can not reach these ends single-
handed. It can only promulgate the
program and stimulate action on the
part of business managers. Just as
twenty years ago the nation under-
took the conservation of national re-
sources, so today it should vigorously
sustain this campaigning for better
utilization of industrial resources and
effort.
MEXICO'S PRESIDENCY
It appears as though former Pres-
ident Alvaro Obregon will again be
the head of the Mexican government
in 1928-at least that is the predic-
tion that is warranted from the action
of the Mexican Chamber which last
week passed a bill permitting the re-
election of former presidents, provid-
ing that one presidential term elapses
between the end of their tenure of
office and their re-election. Rushed
through by the action of Obregon's
friends, the, bill is hardly likely to
encounter any difficulty in the Senate,
and then it will be only a question of
a little unscrupulous campaigning
before he will take the seat of his
friend President Calles.
At present, the one-armed fighter
and politician is commanding an army
to suppress and exterminate the Yaqui
Indians, who have been a rebellious
menace to succeeding governments of
Mexico ever since the Spanish con-
quest. It is easy for the uncharitable
critics of Obregon to see how this
anti-Yaqui campaign can be used to
coerce the citizenry throughout the
whole country into voting at munici-
pal, general and presidential elections
in a manner agreeable to Sr. Obregon
and Sr. Calles. It at least would be
somewhat in keeping with the tradi-
tional methods of inaugurating Mex-
ican presidents into office. And be-
fore such a time comes, a further ne-
farious use of these campaign soldiers
would be the enforcement of the anti-
religious policy of the Calles admin-
istration!

The purpose of our little research

ADD ONE DOUBTFUL DIME
We received one thin dime yester-
day for the Stadium Bond-at least
the donor said it was a dime, "the
first dime that Columbus deposited in
a slot machine."

While we have our doubts as to
whether it really ever was a dime, we
day night to a capacity house andI
with disappointed patrons clamoring
for seats, campus dramatic societies
will cease work for the present on
contemplated plays until December.
This is due to the fact that the twen-
ty-first annual Union opera "Front
Page Stuff" will be presented in the
Whitney theater beginning December
6 for a week, and the Mimes theater
will be used exclusively for rehearsalsR
until that time.
The dirth of dramatic material per-
mits an exceedingly effective grandI
opening for Mr. Shuter's Lulu-the
delayed entrance of the star with the
stage set, and the audience ready to
applaud anything! At present the
first act is running smoothly and the
second nicely underway. The hectic4
patching together and weaving in of
the loose ends remains to be done,
while the final polishing of the chorus
work must be finished before the end
of next week. As yet the cast is op-
timistic, no blood has been shed and
every prospect pleaseth. The music
is nearly set with the orchestra re-
hearsing the song hits of the show,
which promises to relieve the rough
work in the pit which was so consis-
tently criticized in "Tambourine" and
"Tickled To Death."
Following directly in the wake of
the opera, Masques will give Maeter-
linck's "Sister Beatrice." This will
be the first dramatic offering after
the closing of "Tea for Three," and
if box-office estimates can be relied
upon, the Maeterlinck drama should
sell the house. Moreover, if direction
and acting can make a play of the
Megrue comedy that turned them
away, the story of "The Miracle", the
spectacle that was the sensation of
two seasons ago, and which is per-
fectly adapted to an entirely feminine
cast ought to be eminently successful.,
For "Tea for Three" could be run-
ning this week if Mimes could be com-
manded for the performance.
Although dramatic fare will be light
after the forepart of this week, there
are three major attractions on today
and Wednesday. The first is of course
the lecture of John Van Druten this
afternoon, the second is the produc-
tion of the Loos-Emerson comedy I
"Gentlemen Prefer Blondes" which
will be given Wednesday night in the
Whitney, while in Ypsilanti in Pease
auditorium tonight and in Hill audi-
torium tomorrow night Madame Clara
Clemen's will present "Joan of Arc."
THE ORGAN RECITAL
Owing to the fact that Hill audi-
torium will be otherwise occupied on
Wednesday afternoon and evening the
regular organ recital of Palmer
Christian will be omitted this week.
