bound to come.
AIDING GOOD WILL
The fourteenth annual foreign trade
council with more than 2,000 dele-
gates present closed yesterday in De-
troit. The many problems with which
the United States is confronted along
the lines of foreign trade are well.
worth such a large convention as was
gathered.
Many bouquets were thrown at the
government due to its help to Euro-
pean countries since the war. Accord-
ing to one speaker, America has done
everything possible to stimulate for-
eign trade, even when that trade com-
petes with us, and has never, before
or since the war, attempted to further
its own interests or to extend its trade
by any but honest competitive means
in the markets of the world.
If there is one thing about which
the United States cannot be blamed,
it is her foreign trade policy. The
country itself has always been a good
market and this fact has no doubt
given European nations a great deal
of; assistance since the war. This
assistance will be paid back with in-
terest with the payment of the war
debts.
CENSORSHIP
Recent and specific complaints from
public officials regarding the question i
of censorship of radio broadcasting
stations have presented another
unique problem with the new form
of communication and public service.
The complaints made so far were
of the biased cutting of speeches by
the broadcaster, when he deemed the
matter to conflict with his own opin-
ions: This is of a more trivial na-
ture, and might easily be handled by
the parties themselves, but it leads
the way to the further speculations.
The main problems seem to lie in
the agency empowered to perform the
office and the means to be employed.
Perhaps the most helpful suggestion
made has been that the broadcaster
edit his material after the fashion
of a newspaperman, rather than cen-
sor it.
In the radio bill, Congress avoided
all reference to censorship, and stated
only that in the instance of political
campaigns the same resources would
have to be open to all parties who
desired them. The clumsiness of cer-
tain private censors however was dis-
regarded. It has been suggested that
government censorship would be far
more welcome or in another proposal
that each station have an advisory
council of men drawn from the com-
munity who would direct the policy
of the broadcasting, and thus avoid
the possibility of slander and libel
charges.
Undoubtedly action will have to be
taken by the government rather than
by any other body, but it would seem
that considerable time was necessary
before the project would assume form
sufficiently concrete to be dealt with.
Optimism must certainly be sweep-
ing the country when certain indi-
viduals think they can inveigle Pres-
ident Coolidge into announcing his
views on the third term question
with an open letter.
Vesuvius growled again the other
day after a lengthy period'of silence.
Musolini is creating quite a stir over
there.

CARBORD
Bigger and better facilities for en-
joyment will be provided for students
in the cheering section if the plans
for a temporary section for each foot-
ball game, as advocated by the ath-
letic association, are adopted. What1
a lovely time the boisterous rooters
will have with their squares of card-
board.
* * * .
It really is a good plan for those
planning to occupy the section. In
the first place, our benevolent athletic
association will provide the card-
boards free of oharge. That ought
to be the biggest inducement.
* * *
If it rains, the paper squares might
be used for umbrellas. And perhaps
the athletic association could be in-
duced to print the names of the play-
ers on the cards so they would
take the place of programs.
* * *
If the new stadium is as dirty as
the old stands, they will probably be
used for seat covers.
* * S
A new tradition could be inaugurat-
ed-the maize and blue tornado. The
whole section would rise at the end
of the third quarter, when the cards
wouldn't be any good any more, and
produce an effect like Fourth of July'
fireworks.
* * *
HELP FOR HOBBS' FUND
Or they might make all the students
in the cheering section sign a pledge
to save the cards. Then they could
be sold as souvenirs to gullible alumni
for the benefit of the Hobbs Memorial
fund. Those not sold could be saved
to insure a bonfire for Cap night.
* * i
' There are lots of faults that might
be found with the other system, too
-the one where everybody dresses up
like a masquerade ball or the Spanish
inquisition. In case there's any doubt,
we mean the one backed by the sport-
ing goods stores.
* * s
ROLLS CHEERING SECTION
There ought to be some way to get
around this difficultty. For instance,
they might have freshman-sophomore
contests before each of the big games.
Instead of red and green paint, the
classes could use yellow and blue,.
Then only those who were properly
I decorated would be admitted to the
section.
* * *
The best plan would be just to paint
the stadium the proper colors.
A TILLOTSON NIGHTMARE
The "More Seats for Alumni" pro.
grain of the athletic association could
be realized even more fully with a
little planning.
* * *
The chief difficulty with including
the alumni in the present cheering
section is that they don't remember
the college yells. But a few repre-
sentative students in a small special
section with amplifiers and loud
speakers would fix that up properly.
* * *
SUPPORT, especially among the
politically inclined, would be secured
by providing for the election of the
representatives.
* * *
GET EVERY SEAT!
To add even a few more alumni

seats, the special section could be
eliminated and some system of phon,
ograph recording used.

MU~lc g Drama
"UNCLE TOM'S CABIN"
It is related that one time when
Charles Dickens attended a play fash-
ioned by some pirate from his cher-
ished "Oliver Twist," he was unable
to express his feelings except by
lying on the floor of his box and re-'
maining supine until the end of the 1
performance. There is no doubt that
if Harriet Beecher Stowe could wit-
ness Mimes' revival of "Uncle Tom's
Cabin," which Mr. Shuter is planning
for next year, she would lie on her
stomach on the wine colored rugs of
the Mimes theatre, and kick her heels
and scream.
Her imerishable drama of Uiiclej
Tom and Topsy and Eva will be re-
ceived in a manner never intended by
that prophet of freedom, and the new
Negro. Not that it will be burlesqued
hi any sense, for strictly historical
accuracy will be observed from be-
ginning to end, and even Eva's as-
tounding jump to glory will be ac-
complished by the most modern of
stage mechanics; the utmost sym-

SATURDAY, MAY 28, 1927
Night Editor-MILTON KIRSHBAUM
THE BREAK /
The break between England and
Russia, inevitable since the Arcos raid
two weeks ago, has come. Premier
Baldwin has laid his cards on the
table, and the British House of Com-
mons, by a three to one vote, sus-
tained his recommendation to sever
the diplomatic privileges enjoyed mu-
tually by the two countries.
The estrangement is serious indeed
in the course of European diplomacy.
It means, of course, that two of the
great nations of Europe have taken
a backward step in the general trend
toward amicable relations w h i c h
should characterize all of their ac-
tions. It may mean, also, that com-
plications in In'dia and China will
arise, and it certainly means that the
larger portion of the British posses-
sions and domqinions will follow the
lead of -Canada and break relations.
There is no doubt that the pres-
ent actions of the British cabinet are
justified. Great Britain, with its mass
of unemployment and hardship, pre-
sents particularly fertile soil for sow-
ing of the seeds of communism, and
tht Soviets have very obviously not
overlooked this fact, even though
they disregar ed international cour-
tesy in so doing.
On the other hand, however, if the
Soviet government at Leningrad re-
mains stable and capable of fulfilling
its international obligations, there
will come a time when all of the
great powers of the world will be
forced to recognize it, whether they
want to or not.
It is to be hoped that when that
time comes, when even, tht United
States will extend diplomatic courtes-
ies to the great red republic, the Sov-
iet government will also have a fuller
understanding of its international ob-
ligations, and will be willing to play
the role of a sportsman in allowing
other governments the type of admin-
istration they desire. The Soviet gov-
ernment may become, also, by that

pathy will be shown. throughout.
In fact, the only thing for causing
Miss Stowe to indulge in such hys-
terical actions might be the changed
aspect in the reception of her play.
What was a serious and moving mel-
odrama in the middle of the last cen-
tury, becomes most devastating com-
edy in a modern adaptation. A dra-
matic cycle is a most perverse thing.
About a century and a quarter ago,
there were exciting things happening
in the world. Napoleon had executed
his droll coup d'etat of the 18th Bru-
maire, and was soon to attack the
Austrians at Marengo--or some place
like that. George Washington with
considerable flag waving had bade a
dramatic farewell to his baby repub-
I lie. A book called "Lyrical Ballads"
had been published rather recently in
England by two liberal thinking
young poets. In Vienna at the Royal
Imperial Theatre beside the Burg,
Herr Ludvig Von Beethoven was pre-
senting a program containing a grand
concerto for the pianoforte and the
first of a series of rather famous sym-
phonies. He died in twenty-five years,j
and a hundred years later received a
more profound recognition at a cen-
tennial of his death than he ever did
during his life.
Three years ago every Variety house
in America sorrowed lugubriously at
the death of the country's most out-
standing composer-Mr. Victor Her-
bert. It affected them as much as the
recent death of Sam Bernard, the
comedian. On the third anniversary
of Victor Herbert week, every Keith-
Albee and Orpheum theatre is thrill-
ing to the tremulant titillation of a
whiskey tenor singing "Gypsy Sweet-
heart" and "A Kiss in the Dark."
It is so that America honors her
artists. It is so that Irving Berling,
Rosa Ponselle (who sang recently in
the May Festival in Ann Arbor)
Sophie Tucker, Mrs. Fiske and the
Whoops Sisters pass into immortal
theatre tradition.
* * *
"The Plutocrat" is to : be drama-
tized but not by Booth Tarkington,
who has thus far steadily held to his
decision of last year that he would
never write another play. It will be
remembered that he handed this decis-
ion down in no uncertain terms at the
time, and it is evident that he means
it; perhaps fortunately so. Mr.
Tarkington will probably take a pa-
ternal interest in the dramatic ver-
sion which will be done by Tom Cush-
ing who is the author of "The Devil
in the Cheese." Charles Coburn, of
course will play the plutocrat.
* *K *
It is a rather strange twist of
things that placed Robert Browning
as the author of the season's long-
run play. Walter Hampden announces
with pardonable pride that "Capon-
sacchi" (an adaptation of "The Ring
and the Book") will open its eighth
month. It certainly was the surprise
of the season, for it has outlived all
other serious plays. In fact, prob-
ably no one is quite so surprised as
Mr. Hampden who counted on "The
Immortal Thief" as the strong' bill
of his repertory and originally risked
"Caponsacchi" for about six weeks,
which was quite a risk for Mr. Hamp-
den, to say nothing of Mr. Brown-
ing.
Incidentally, the Hampden play for
next season will be one of Will
Shakespeare's dramas although he
hasn't named his choice as yet.

Speaking of Will Shakespeare re-
minds me to mention that Max Rein-
