HERALD USELESS AND DANGEROUS Advocated as a measure to secure or enforce the peace of the world, the, formation of an English-speaking al- liance between the United States and the British Empire has been proposed recently by able men, and as a peace measure has been both condemned and praised. A written agreement or an unwritten "understanding" have been suggested to cement closer rela- tions, and to form a British-American alliance . . . . against the rest of the, world.I For that 10 exaciy what it would lie. While the two commonwealths have common ideals, have an edge on, the world's natural resources, are bound together by language, by racial ties, and by mutual respect, the at-, tempted enforcement of peace by Brit- ish and American policemen would undoubtedly meet with opposition and; derision because of the intimated su-' periority. The assumption that our ideas and ideals should be adopted by France, Germany, Italy, and the rest,; and that we have a keener sense of justice is certain to be disagreeable to them. We have been in just about as many wars as anyone else and will; probobaly continue to be. All of1 which is rather devasting when one comes to think of it. If the alliance were to be effective; it would have to be a writtep, binding agreement. Whatever the Empire did. the United States would of necessity; support, and vice versa. That is; where the real danger lies. Thp United States is faced by no prospects of a, first class war. Great Britain is, per- haps with China, perhaps with Russia.a We should have nothing to gain in, foreign relationships and much to; lose. Then, too, if the entanglements of a written agreement are to be1 avoided, as suggested by Premier Bruce of Australia, by engaging in an unwritten "understanding," the Brit-; ish and American peace policemen' would be clubless, powerless to act. W\hile the idea sounds well and the( ideals involved are impressive, anI English-speaking alliance would be valueless to us, might conceivably in-7 volve the counry in foreign disputes, in which we have no rational interest, and would merely be another obliga-c tion, more useless and dangerous than any we now have. Anyway one fig-; ures it, we would lose.c would be responsible and in which we would probably be the losers. Forming a cabinet in Germany; seems to be every bit as difficult as settling the Tacna-Arica dispute.- CAMPUS OPINION Anonymous communications will be disregarded.

VIVISECTION DEFENDED To The Editor: My quarrel is half with the well- named writer of yesterday's anti-vivi- section outburst, and half with the Michigan Daily for allowing such a display of ignorance to appear on its pages, to be read by ten thousand peo- ple who are supposed to have at least a smattering of scientific methods and purpose. Yesterday's writer, like all anti- vivisectionists, has never visited an experimental laboratory at all, or else he has peeped into one without the slightest idea of what was going on. More likely, he has passed the medical school and heard several dogs howl- ing within. They howl because they tre hungry and haven't anything else to do, as they are treated like other surgical patients and deprived of food for a short time before operation.l When the actual cutting is done, the so-called vivisection which usually consists of opening a vein or an art- ery, they are silent in a deep ether anaesthesia. The experiment com- pleted, they die a painless death with more ether. Or, if it is a bacteri- ological experiment, they may con- tract a disease and be sick for a few days, usually with no actual pain, after which they are killed and the diseased tissues examined with a microscope. That, briefly, is the sum of the horrors vaguely alluded to yes- I terday. Rather than torture the aninals (dogs, rats, mice, rabbits, guinea pigs) he recommends that we endure uncomplainingly the diseases (which he says) we ourselves have created. I Fine! I wish he had lived a few years ago and could have watched the real horrors of decimating epidemics of bubonic plague, yellow fever (con- quered at the cost of human experi- mental animals), typhus fever and typhoid, diphtheria when the only treatment was to slit open the wind-' pipe of the victim so he could breathe a day or so longer, and the Great Pox (syphilis) of the middle ages that made life in Europe a living hell. All those and many more have been largely conquered by the microscope working in conjunction with animal experiments, for no disease germ has its identity proven until it reproduces the disease in another animal. Or let him live only ten years agp when old diabetics died miserably with gangrene and young diabetics knew their doom was sealed almost within the year. Now they live to ripe old age in comfort, for Banting and many others let dogs solve the problem. The dog becomes a hero under these circumstances, not a vic- tim. Contrary to rumors, no voting booth will be set up in the diagonal sta- dium for the big election. There will be no cigars passed out, and abso- lutely no politics . It will be as clean as the freshman lit elections. * * * Not since the last campaign to find something for the Student Council to do has there been such an important issue before the University as the naming of that stadium.

WE WILL CUTTER AGAIN Editor, Toasted Rolls, Dear Sir, The writer has read with interest and keen appreciation your reference to your cutter ride in Sunday's pa- per. As the owner of the Kentucky Riding Academy, I want to extend to you an invitation to ride behind real horses with my compliments. (Signed) * * * Which is very kind of the gentle- man, and we called him up to make the appointment yesterday. And it's all set: we ride behind one of the Blue-Grass-fed ponies of this Friday night, IF THERE IS SNOW. * * * The reason we have to have snow 3s that the horses will probably get too frisky and throw us into the ditch, and we prefer to land a la Alaska rather than a la Venice. You know, that's just the trouble with the whole thing. It is all a question of whether you'd rather go riding behind a nice ruminating sort of horse and come home slowly, or drive a fast ruinating animal and come home 60 miles an hour-in an ambulance. We never drove a horse until last Friday, and wouldn't know what to pull or even what to yell if he got the idea there was a race on with some Ypsilanti bootlegger's car. * * , Perhaps some Ann Arbor cop would come along on his motorcycle and shoot some tear gas at the colt if it got going too fast. * s . WANTED: SNOW The way the weather bureau is dishing out weather now-since we left to tackle a bigger job, the League fund-we won't be able to take the ride at all, unless we make it a buggy ride.{ One thing certain, we won't try to ride a saddle horse: we could hardly manage to stay on a motorcycle-even in the side car. And ineidelitly we weren't surprisedI when that boy won the Catalina swim. Anyone who could ride a motor- cycle across the cotinet ought to be able to swim the Atlantic * * r i i I ,. ;, !. i.

He completes the trio which alone made the perfomance worth listening to and helped to relieve the famous hokum tension. Of the others there is comparatively little to say inasmuch as they did not carry the burdens. Marion Leland was a trifle too ready to jumpat falling pictures and to go into hyster- ics over prowling cats. Perhaps it was the author's fault. The lady in back of us took her screaming cues from her in between the details of the latest faculty gossip. Robert Wetzel--well you have seen him be- fore. Thurston Thieme as the ill- fated hero was a bit disappointing, but he didn't last long. The rest were conventional. The crowd enjoyed ever bit of it and so did we. But tomorrow or the next day as we stand in the rush at the Maj or waiting at the corner lunch for our coffee and rolls, we might hear some one say "Beggarman" orl "Great Catherine" but "The Last Warning" will be forgotten. * * * "CRAIG'S WIFE" A review, by Smith H. Cady, Jr. If one agrees with George Kelly that women such as Mrs. Craig do exist-women whose homes are their gods, who marry for security and not for love, who exclude all friends from the house because they do not fit ini with their narrow selfishness, who love their petty ornaments more than anything else in the world, and who are totally unfit to play the game of life-then "Craig's Wife," the Pulitzer prize play of the season 1925-26, is an excellent drama. If one finds it, impossible to understand the mental workings of such a woman , theni "Craig's Wife" is a very, clever, ex- tremely well-written play-but noti- ing more. But which ever attitude George Kel-j ly's play may evoke, the cast which ish presenting it at the New Detroit this week is sure to win approval. Chrys- tal Herne and Charles Trowbridge, as thme wife and husband whose home is destroyed by the wife's passion for her own security and her idolatry of her possessions, give excellent portray- als of their parts. Trowbridge, in his brief but heroic rebellion in the sec- ond act, when lie deliberately crashes one of the treasured ornaments,! scatters cigarette ashes over the sac- red rugs, and recklessly leans against the polished piano, is perfect. Miss Herne, in the very effective ending of I the play, when she stands in tire midst of Ier cherished kingdom, de- serted by her husband and her friends because of her inherent self- ishness, and slowly scatters the petals, of the roses that she despised over her spotless floor, does one of the best bits of work seen this season. And the supporting cast is far, far above the average.
