favor of increasing production above
all else.
Mrs. Sherman's plea seems to be for
a "square deal," a thing to which
under the Smith-Lever law the farm
women are entitled. Mrs. Sherman
would probably be more successful as
a politicain, however, if she would
produce a definitely organized plan
stating just what she wants the agri-
culture committee to do about it.
Evidently the house committee needs
more than eloquent persuasion in the
case of the welfare of farm women.
AIR COLLEGES
The Federal Radio commission is to
be commended for its recent decision
approving of fair treatment for college
radio broadcasting stations in regard
to adjustments of wave lengths and
power in case of interference with
their programs. While the decision
does not directly affect the Univer-
sity, whose Michigan Night programs
are fast gaining prestige in the radio
world, as exemplified by the increas-
ing number of communications re-
ceived by the local station, it is im-
portant, nevertheless, in that the com-
mission realizes the good effects of
this phase of air activity.
For the most part college radio
stations cater very largely to the rural
element with their educational pro-
grams, and it is chiefly in this respect
that they are doing the most good, the
commission believes. As a result of
this approbation by the radio com-
mission more than 20 land grant col-
leges in the United States will be en-
couraged to continue their work of
sending out farm and other extension
programs. Evidence of the educa-
tional goods these stations are doing
is contained in a letter recently re-
ceived by the commission from the
secretary of agriculture, who asked
that they be looked upon favorably
because of the splendid service they
are rendering the more isolated
listeners.%
Broadcasting of Michigan Night pro-
grams every other Friday night during
the past two years has served to
permanently establish the University
as one of the foremost of the air col-
leges in the country. While no defi-
nite courses are given or any specific
educational program followed, appre-
ciation of the worth of the programs
has been expressed in the increasing
number of letters received from dis-
tant points. ,
Everything considered, it is obvious
that the Federal Radio commission
has taken a thoroughly judicious step
in seeking to further such important
factors in the cause of education as
the college radio stations scattered
throughout the country.
PAY UP
Next Tuesday and Wednesday the
annual effort will be made to collect
class dues from the various classes
of the University. A large number of
students, no doubt, will pay their
dues without needing any encourage-
ment, and some will pay if pursused;
but some there will be, as some there
always are ,who will successfully at-
tempt to evade payment altogether.
None of the dues will be excessive,
running in no class to more than
$1.00 except in the cases of senior
classes and in cases where excep-
tional expenditures have been decided
upon. Every student attending the
University can afford to pay this
small rate which is requested of hi,
and there is no reason why the vari-
ous classes cannot show a better rec-
ord this year than they have in the
past.
The collection of these dues is no
small task for the various class treas-
urers who have to make a report of
every dollar taken in to the treasurer
of the University. Cooperation on the
part of the students can lessen this
burden immensely, and it can also
improve the reputation of the Univer-
sity student body in regard to the
honorable payment of its dues.
ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
It is with extreme gratification, and1
a feeling closely akin to pride, that
the University may view the appoint-
ment of Prof. Thomas Reed of the
political science department as ad-'
viser to the city of Pittsburgh in a
post which will ultimately call upon
him to reorganize that city's govern-
ment.
Seldom has the standing and repu-
tation of our own political science de-
partment been brought more forcibly
into relief than it is in this recent ap-
pointment; and it is with complete

SATURDAY, JANUARY 14, 1928
Night Editor-K. G. PATRICK
BUILDING VERSUS SAVING
In an article published recently, the
official journal of the American Med-
ical association commented on the sit-
uation now prevailing in a majority of
universities whereby , a student is
furnished medical attention when sick.
The comment took the form of a ques-
tion as to the propriety of the service
to the sick as a university function.
Dr. Warren E. Forsythe, director of
the University Health Service, in his
last report, mentioned one instance
of a student being cared for by the
Health Service to the extent of $1,200
in fees. This is paid by the tuition
appropriation under the policy now
in vogue, and in this one case the en-
tire amount taken from 120 students
was necessary.
Dr. Forsythe declares . that the
present day problems of public health
are essentially personal rather than
group matters, and that this factor
makes it impossible to, separate the
preventive and the curative medicalj
measures. Despite the demand for
and the appreciation of direct service
of a curative nature in the case of
recognized illness, the constructive
health program is less able to be re-
alized on this account. It is the be-
lief of the present administration that
a constructive health program is both
desirable and necessary, and for this
reason the possibility that such a
movement is being jeopardized by
curative measures is worthy of con-
sideration and remedy. It is possible
that a certain moderation of the
present system might be invoked,
which would transfer to the state or
to private responsibility the cost of
caring for a student after a certain
stage of treatment is reached.
LADY POLITICIANS
This week the General Federation
of Women's clubs with its president,
Mrs. John D. Sherman, as a leader,
is working in Washington for the
cause of the women of the farms.
Mrs. Sherman charges that the fed-
eral agricultural extension service;
discriminates against the development
of the farm home and training of farm
workers in favor of programs for in-
creasing agricultural surplus and de-
clares that the leaders of 2,000,000j

The second bill of the Rockford
Players who open a week from Sun-
day night in the Whitney theater for a j
season of stock will be Norma Mit-
chell's tremendously successful com-
edy, "Cradle Snatchers." This is al-
most unique of its kind, since it is
one of the few comedies of crude,
slapstick proportions, and almost in-
decent, which has attained popularity
and is appreciated by everyone from
the school teachers who saw it in the
Rockford Players summer session
here,.to the New York literati who
greeted it with whoops of laughter
when Edna May Oliver and Mary Bo-
land opened with it two seasons ago.

A review, by Kenneth G. Patrick
Delicately and a little too charm-
ingly spun is this tale of the North
Dorset pastures, but its influence
grows gradually upon the reader as
he sticks to his task. The reading
itself must be accomplished in a calm
spirit of experiment and patience, or
else it is apt never to proceed past the
first 30 pages. The authoress, a Maine
Ph.D. and at present an assistant
professor of English at Minnesota
seems to possess a few weapons with 1
which she is skilled, and she con-
veniently desists from all attempts to
use the others--a virtue all too often
lacking.
Plot is hardly an issue from-cover
to cover; indeed it hardly seems to
concern any of the three or four
principal characters themselves. They
are rather content to make their way
