DEAN Of NEW SCHOOL

IS TIE FIRST SCHOOL OF
KIND ESTABLISIEID IN
UNITED STATES

ITS

DETAILS ARE INCOMPLETE
Wil lPlace School.On A Professional
Bipsis; Two Year Preparation
Will Be Required
Samuel T. Dana, who has recently
been appointed the Dean of the new
school of forestry and conservation,
arrived in Ann Arbor yesterday to
form plans for the organization of the
schol, the first of its kind to be es-
tablished in the United States.
The need for research in diseases of
trees and plants led to the establish-
ment of the new school. Mr. Dana,
the deap-elect, in an article in the
Alumnus, has outlined the hopes and
aims of the new school. As part of
the plans to place the school on a
strictly professional basis students
will be admitted only after two years
of collegiate preparation. Instruction
in the simpler sciences will be given
in the College of Literature, Sciences,
and the Arts; while courses in den-
drology will be given in the new
school.
Will Stress Graduate Work
The school hopes to contribute to
the management and conservation of
forests, Mr. Dana says in his article,
and will aim to cover the entire field
of forestry land management more
than is now possible. Graduate work
will be stressed in an effort to turn
out forestry leaders.
Details of the curriculum have not
been worked out yet, but it is planned
to arrange the courses so that two
years of professional work in the
school will lead to a bachelor's degree
and three years of professional work
to a master's degree. The aim', as
Mr. Dana states them, are: to handle
instruction, research an cooperation
in an effort to conserve the forests; '
to offer a sound education in forest
silvics; and to turn out trained men
of high quality who will be able to
take their places as leaders in ,the
development of forest land.
Is Experienced Wrkeer
Mr. Dana is a graduate of Bowdoin
College. He is a member of Phi Beta
Kappa and Sigma Xi. Shortly before
his graduation he entered the United
States Forestry Service, and for sev-
eral years was chief of the Office of
Silvics at Washington. During the
war he was a captain on the general
staff doing special work connected
with the lumber supply of the army.
He reentered the forestry service
after the war and was interested for
some time In research problems. In
1921 he was appointed as commission-
er of forestry to the state of Maine.
He was later persuaded to take up
research work again and was mode di-
rector of the Northeastern forest ex-
periment station at Amherst; Mass.
This is one of the 10 experimental
stations maintginpd in the United
States. Research in forestry problems
of the New England region is car-
ried on at the station. 'Important
among these are protection of forests
from fire, insects and disease, and ex-
periments in the adapability of trees
to the New England district.
The forestry school at Michigan was
first organized by the late Professor
Filbert Roth. He worked single hand-
ed for a time, but eventually the
school was developed althougf it has
been limited because bf being only
a department in the College of Lit-
erature, Science, and the Arts. Prof.
Roth served as head of the school
from 1903 to 1923, after which fail-
ing health caused him to resign after
20 years of service. He was made a
professor-emeritus in 1923 by order of
the Board of Regents. Following Mr.
Roth's retirement President Burton
attempted to build Michigan forestry
on a new and stronger basis. The
untimely death of the president pre-
vented the maturing of these plans.
President Little realized the situation
and has attempted to change it. The
new school has now made it possible
for specialization in forestry.

British Leaders May Change Places Again
As Fight Over Trade Union Bill Increases
I :
Prime Minister Stanley IBaldwi n, and Ramsey MacDonald, former
labor premier, may change places agaun. New British elections are fore-
cast because of the fight in Parliame nt over the Trade Union bill. Baldwin
h1as declared that the conservatives ask nothing better than an appeal to
the country on the issue, but the La bor party sees in this a chance to
Place MacDonald at the rejins of gavernment in England. Baldwin, in de-
bate, has saidl that the bill declares a general strike, that involuntary
political subscriptions are unjust, an d tpat party politics in the civil ser-
vice is improper.

Dear Wi. Gilpin-
We operate two complete factories. one in
Detroit and one in Chicago. We also have Branch Warehouos
facilities in Cleveland and rw Yare. City. The large
volume of correspondence between these points involves
our considerable use of the long distance telephono.
We would scarcely know how to operate without your
facilities. We encourage promt action by pgr'itting
our subordinates to -call -each other at will. The re-
sultant rapid turnover of inventory is alone worth
the telephone cost.
