BUTTERFIE1L'S POLICY
APPHRD BY ALUMNI
Hammond Sends Telegram To Alumni
In State Enlisting Support
For President
CLAIM UNFAIR TREATMENT
(By Associated Press)
LANSING, May 7.-The first defin-
ite move of alumni in the Michigan
State college administration squab-
ble came today when Jason E. Ham-
mond, graduate of the class of 1886
and manager of the Michigan Dry;
goods association, sent a telegramt to
alumni of the college throughout the
state enlisting the aid and srfport
of the policy of Pres. Kenyon, L. But-
terfield.
Hammond, who claims t. be the.
spokesman for several Lansing alums-
ni of the college, served notice tbt
President Butterfield "does not in-
tend to resign." He declared the
President has been unfairly treated.
The text of the telegram followed in
part, "President Butterfield nas re-
turned from his trip to the Holy
land and has had a conference with
the, state board. Another meeting will
be held May 22. Action was taken
during his absence which is constru-
ed as an indirect request for his re-
signation. He does not intend to re-
sign. Michigan business and profes-
sional men, including alumni, have
carefully and impartially inquired in-
to the causes of dissatisfaction and
believe lie has been unfairly treated.
"They believe that prominent
Michigan State men and alumni ev-
erywhere should dem-and fair treat
men for a man of President Butter-
field's character and standing."
The arbitrary dismissal about three
weeks ago of Dean John Phelan, or
the department of education, and D
D. Willard, director of continuin, d-
ucation, who came to Michigan State
college during President Butterfeld'
regine and who were among his most
ardent supporters, came as a iiior
or less direct hint of the state board
of Agriculture's desire for Butter-
field's resignation.
Also the board's extension of Presi-
dent Butterfield's leave of absence,
which he had not asked for, is take.
by almuni as another indication of
the board's dissatisfaction with the
college administration. Butterfield
came to Michigan State four years
ago. There have been four presidents
of the institution in the last 10 years.
Norhwestern university will re-
institute its interfraternity council
and with it the former rsuhing rules.

MEETING AT CHICAGO'

MORE THAN 300
EXPECTED AT
SESSION

DELEGATES
FIRST

BROOKS TODIRECT THEME
"The Interrelation Of The State, The
University, And The Alwmal"
Is Triennial Topic
Chicago will be the scene of the
Second Triennial of the University of
Michigan Alumni clubs which will be
held May 10, 11, and 12. Delegates
who have already registered for the
convention number 125, but this is
expected to swell to 300 or 350 by the
opening on Thursday morning, accord-
ing to Wilfred B. Shaw, '04, editor of
The Michigan Alumnus. Headquart-
ers for the alumni will be the Black-
stone hotel.
The theme for the Triennial has
been chosen as, "The Interrelation of
The State, The University, and The
Alumni." The theme will be intro-
duced on Thursday afternoon by Dr.
'Stratton D. Brooks, '96, who is now
President of the University of Mis-
souri and is the director of the Trien-
nial theme.
Little Will Speak
The first address of the regular
business session will be delivered by
President Little on Thursday morn-
ing. In this session the welcome ad-
dress will be given by Murray Blanch-
ard, President of the University of
Michigan club of Chicago, which is
acting as host for the event. He will
be followed by E. J. Ottaway, '94, who
will respond for the Alumni associa-
tion. In the afternoon Dr. Brooks
will present the theme of the con-
vention. After the address by Presi-
dent Jessup of Iowa the alumni will
consider the location of the 1931
Triennial. Friday will be occupied
with district meetings and various
alumni committee reports; President
Coffman of Minnesota will deliver the
afternoon address.
The present system of triennial con
ventions is the result of a reorganiza-
tion in 1924. Under this arrange-
ment the alumni clubs meet every
year in their districts, while every
third year a large convention is held
in any other city than Ann Arbor.
The first Triennial was held three
years ago in Detroit when 350 alumni
attended. At the present time there
are 165 alumni clubs grouped in 11
disricts, the whole being governed by
a board of 20 members.
DEAN TO MODIFY
BAN NEXT WEEK
According to an announcement
made yesterday by Joseph A. Busley
Dean of Students, the automobile ban

sible for the partial relaxation. Be-
ginning at 6 o'clock Friday night, May
11, and ending at 8 o'clock Monday
morning, May 14 students will be al-
lowed to drive for the week end of

ing May 14 and finishing at 8
o'clock Monday morning May 21, the

PRIMARIES IN INDIANA'
Iti
WILL BE HELD TODY
Repubicans' Presidential Preference
Draws Major Part Of Interest
In Preliminary Campaigns
WOOLEN IS NOT OPPOSED
(By Associated Press)
INDIANAPOLIS, May 7-Indiana
primaries campaign ended tonight in
a bast of platform and loud-speaker
appeas for support from the people
who tomorrow will make Republican
and Democratic choices for president,
U. S. Senator, and minor officers.
The Repubican presidential pref-
erence contest held the major share
of attention with both Sen. James A.
Watson, favorite son, and the forces
of Herbert Hoover, expressing confi-
,dence in the outcome. The winner in
the primaries will control Indiana's
33 delegates to the national conven-
tion at Kansas City.
Banker Also On Ballot
Evans Woolen, Indianapolis bank-
er, was unopposed in the Democratic
preference. Names written in on the
ballots will invalidate the vote. Polls
will' be open from 6 a. m. to 6 p. m.
Senator Watson returned to Indian-
apolis from Fort Wayne, a Hoover
stronghold. Tomorrow, he will go to
Rushville, his home town, to cast his
ballot and then will depart for Wash-
ington. Both Watson and M. Bert
Thurman, his national manager, ex-
pressed the opinion that a sweeping
endorsement would be given the vet-
eran senator's candidacy,
Oscar T. Follinger, of Fort Wayne,
Hoover's Indiana manager, predicted
a victory by a comfortable margin for
the secretary of commerce. Hoover
followers have realized that an India-
na triumph would give their man a
strategic position' at the national con-
vention, and have worked seriously
towards that end.
Rau Klux Klan Is Issue
The Ku Klux Klan and Anti-Saloon
league issues have had prominent part
in both the Senatorial and guberna-
torial contests, and involve candidate
of each of the major parties. Espec-
ially is that condition prevalent in the
senatorial race.
While U. S. Senator Arthur Robin-
son, who seeks renomination, has at-
tacked no one, and has welcomed all
Republican votes, one of his oppon-
ents, Attorney-general Arthur L. Gil-
liom, has stated he does not, want the
vote of any Klansman. "Republicanism
and Kianism cannot mix," he has de-
clared.
REHEARSALS END
FOR MEDIC PLAY
Final rehearsal for the four act play
to be given tonight at the annual All-
Medic Smoker was held last night.
With that, arrangements for the en-
tertainment sponsored by Galens,
medical honor society, were complet-
ed. The advance ticket sale for the
event resulted in a nearly complete
sell-out.
Beginning at Mimes Theater a four
act production will be given, together
with several acts of vaudeville and
music by Bud Golden's' orchestra.
About 11 o'clock, following the enter-
tainment at Mimes, the program will
be continued in the Assembly hall of
the Union where the Smoker itself
will begin and where added entertain-
ment is to ge given. No smoking will
be allowed in the theater.
A limited number of tickets will
be on sale at the Mimes theater when
the doors open at 7 o'clock tonight.

BRITISH AMBASSADOR
SAYS THAT EUROPEAN
NATIONS WANT PEACE
SIR ESME HOWARD SPEAKS
TO AMERICAN PEACE
SOCIETY
CRITICIZESJOURNALISTS
Declares That Time Is Coming When
Nations Will Not Go To War
To Settle Disputes
CLEVELAND, May 7.-While wars
and rumors of wars make it exped-
ient not to discourage all preparations
for nation-wide offense, the .trend of
thought among the nations, particu-
larly those of Europe, is in the direc-
tion of peace, Sir Esme Howard,
British ambassador to the United
States, delcared tonight before the
World conference on international
justice.
Addressing the delegates of the
American peace 'society, unde whose
auspices the 'conference is being held'
here this week, Sir Esme expressed
the opinion that as the powers become
more accustomed to the idea that wars
belong to a past barbaric age they
will undoubtedly become able to dis-
card their navy and military arma-
ment's entirely. But this will be ac-
complished little by little, he said.
The British ambassador criticized
those journalists who try to "keep
alive public interest in the drama of
human nature," by constantly predict-
ing wars.
Names Main Obstacle
"There i's more joy on earth over
two sinners who break each others
ahead than over ninety and eight just
men who keep the peace. This is
then, I am convinced, one of the prin-
cipal obstacles in the way of educat--
ing men in the ways of peace.'
The attitude of the daily press, so
far as the new's values are concerned
inevitably means "flaming headlines"
to announce even the remote possibil-
ity of a conflict of some kind, where-
as if the cause of the trouble is re-
moved by negotiations it hardly re-
ceives any notice on the back pages,
said the 'speaker. But he hastened to
lay the blame for this, not on the
press, but on some "inherent kink" in
the brain of humanity."
"In spite of the journalists who are
always predicting wars," he said,
"every year that passe-s, sees an im-
provement in the European situation.
Nowhere in Europe today is there
more impressive evidence of a desire
for peace than in Germany. But it is
well so long as wars and rumors of
wars have not died away not to dis-
courage defense."

PARDON GOES TO%
CORNELL MEETING
Edward C. Pardon, superintendent of
the Buildings and Grounds depart-
ment, left Ann Arbor late yesterday
for Cornell university: He will attend
a convention of Building and Ground
department superintendents to be held
there Monday, Tuesday, and Wednes-
day.
The aim of the convention, which
is held annually, is to give the var-
ions representatives an opportunity
to talk over their problems in round-
table discussion groups. Particular
stress is laid on construction and
maintenance work, Mr. Pardon ex-
plained yesterday, and the relative
cost of various methods employed also
receives consideration.
