Varnum Lawrence Walkley Hannah Wallen 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 COMES BACK A cold wind blew as we strolled I down to the campus yesterday morn- ing.

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 Hio Z , slau L1 1 Lg Le Q prayer of student organizations for a; logical excuse for the automobile rules has been completely ignored, what could be more appropriate than an attempt to pierce the official armour with a musical plea? * * * Accordingly, for the use of anyone wishing to try such a method, we have composed a little ditty, to be{ sung like the well-known army tune,1 "I Can't Get 'Em Up." * * * OUR REVEILLE We can't get a rise, We can't get a rise, We can't get a rise from the Regents; They won't answer us, They won't answer us, They won't answer us at all.

M. M. "CRADLE SNATCHERS" 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. * * * .."UPLANDS," by Mary Ellen Chase; 297 pages; 1927; Little, Brown and (o, $2.00. An Atlantie Monthly Press PublicltiOnl. 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.
