GOV, SMITH IS, SILENT
ON POHIBITION ISSUE
(By Associated Press)
ALBANY, N. Y., Oct. 1.-Hailed en-
thusiastically by the 1,200 dele-gates
of the Democratic State Convention
as the next President of the United
States, Gov. Alfred E. Smith in a'
lengthy addtess made not the slight-
est referehce to the nomination or to
national issues.
"I am here to talk on state issues,"
he said, almost as his opening state-
ment. "This is a state convention
and questions of state interests are
all we are now interested in."
His "lead" was followed by Sen-
ator Hobert Wagner and other party
orator's who succeeded to the ros-
trum. All confined themselves to dis-
cussion of state finances, water power
policy and similar subjects which
have been or are expected to become
princt~al platforms in the state com-
paign.' The subject of prohibition
was not mentioned in the convention..
WarAeck J. Kernan, of Utica, the
convention chairman, stressed the
importance from the standpoint of
his party of defeating at the coming
election a proposed' constitutional
amend'tient providing for a four-year
term for governor, with gubernatorial
elections the' same years as presiden-
tial elections.
Goc Smith touched on this elec-
tion proposal, saying:
"Thio oery $argument that was made
in 1904 for extending the term of the
mayor of New York applies today
with equal, if not more, force, for

the contention that governors ought
to be elected for at least four years.
Republican friends are seeking by
amendment to the constitution to com-
pel thfe election of a governor in
the year that we arc electing a Presi-
ident. Not a single one of them can
define it in principal.
"National issues have nothing at
all to do with the prudent, economical,
sensil le administration of the state's
business. We don't want any gov-
ernor elected in this state on the
issue.
"I want a man elected governor of
New York on his proved ability to
demonstrate to the people of the state
that be knows how to run the job,
and I don't want him, after a cheap
ride nn a national issue, to get into
the executive chamber without any
knowledge of the business of the
state.!'

Leonard F. James, Riggs Scholar, Gives
Imp'ressions Of University Of Michigan

..M

We have all experienced the novelty
and excitement of entering the Uni-
versity of Michigan for the first time.
All of us have been impressed with its
prestige, its wonderful facilities for
acquiring knowledge, and its athletic
prowess. What are the impression of
a student from another country upon
arriving on the campus for the first
time?
"The University of Michigan is mag-
nificent-I would say 'topping' were
it not too obviously inglish--and after
seeing it, I feel even more honored to
be a Fellow here," is the impression
of Leonard F. James, Riggs scholar,
who arrived in Ann Arbor from Eng-
land early in September.
"One's feelings on setting out to
spend a year in a university in a new
country are naturally very mixed, par-
ticularly when the dlestination is the
United States, about which one hears
varied accounts," says rl. James. "I
have not yet been able to visit other
university towns in America, but I am
sure one would have to search long
and far to find a better one than Ann
Arbor.
"I am anticipating spending an en-
joyable and profitable year amidst
such pleasant surroundings, and in
the company of the splendid fellows
here."
Courtesy and lhspitality must be
two outstanding features of the Ameri-
can, Mr. Jones believes, for the man-
ner in which he has been received
everywhere has made him feel any-
thing but a stranger here.
Mr. James has been pledged to the
Alpha Delta Phi fraternity..
'Fraternities, Mr. James points out,
are a feature unknown to English uni-
versity life. "My stay has been all too
short to have learned much about
them generally," he says, "but I am
privileged in knowing one rather more
specifically. I think fraternity life to
be splendid, with its great friendship
and intimate associations."
He has yet to be initiated into
American football, since the English
games of this nature are nature are
not played like football. "I am antici-

pating some thrilling times watching
Michigan playing-winning, I hope-
on her magnificent new ground," he
remarks.
"I shall leave America with a very
great regard for Michigan," Mr. James
says in concluding, "taking with me
associations which will remain al-
ways."
Mr. James, who is studying political
science, received his B. A. at the Uni-
versity of Bristol in 1926. He is one of
three students who were awarded the
Frances Riggs Fellowship for 1927-28.
-I. E. Parkes, of Oxford, who is study-
ing American history, and Clarence
Tyler, of the University of Sheffield,
who is doing research work in the
English department, are also on the
camnpus.
The Frances Riggs Fellowships
were founded in 1923 by Miss Frances
E. Riggs, of Detroit, in furtherance of
the aims of the English-speaking union
in which she is active. The object of
the fellowship is the promotion of a
good understanding between the peo-
ple of Great Britain and the United
States.
LITTLE AND OTTOWAY
PLAN ALUMNI PROGRAM
E. J. Ottoway, of Port Huron, Presi-
dent of the Alumni association of the
University of Michigan, and President
Clarence Cook Little held a conference
Friday regarding the alumni program
to be followed out during the coming
year. As a result President Ottoway
has announced that the program work
has been completed and that the
Alumni association is now ready to go
through with the formulated plans.
Of chief importance among these, is
the plan for the second triennial of all
University of Michigan clubs to be
held in Chicago May 17, 13, and 19,
1925. The first was held in June, 1925,
and it is planned to continue these
meetings at intervals of three years
indefinitely. As it happens, the fifth
of these triennials will fall in 1937,
during the celebration which will un-
doubtedly be occurring in honor of the
University's hundredth birthday.
