BEHYMER 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! OASTED ROLL HELPING l HARRY TILLOTSON In accordance with our policy of supporting Harry Tillotson in his ef- forts to "give every student a seat on the fifty yard line," we are undertak- ing an investigation.I * * The purpose of our little research will be to discover gust where the worst seats will be in the new sta- dium, so that Mr. Tillotson can put the students there. * * * ON TO OHIO! The classic of the West, the race between Admiral Ixzo and Kernel, got off to a fast start yesterday morning. Ixzo's horse and buggy soon disap- peared In the dust-the dust of Ker- nel's Oscar and his light buggy.

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. * * * VIRTUE ON A WHITE hORSE SKILLED REPAIRING We will give you a good trade allowance for your old pen, any standard make, in exchange for This pen has four very positive advantages over any other make. 1) Better flow, (2) six to twelve times more ink capacity, (3) only five parts, strong parts, therefore it will outlast any other pen.
