THIEME ANNOUNCES
DISTRIBUTION PLAN
FOR SCHOLARSHIPS
Strong, Marsh Funds to Offer
$1,500 to $2,000 in
f Small Awards.
OUTLINE REQUIREMENTS

Personal
Need

Impression, Financial
Will be Factors

Considered.
Between $1,500 and $2,000 will be
distributed within the next few
weeks to students needing financial
support, it was announced yester-
day by Prof. Hugo P. Thieme, of
the French department, chairman
of the committee in charge of
the Henry Strong and Marsh schol-
arships.
Of the amount available $1,500
was made possible through the
Strong foundation and $500 was
added under the Marsh bequest.
Restricted to Literary College.
Eligibility for the scholarships,
which will be available only to
students in the College of Liter-
ature, Science and the Arts, will be
determined through three judges,
Professor Thieme, Prof. Henry
Huchirls, of the Englis11 depart-
ment, and Prof. Floyd E. Bartell,
of the chemistry department. Con-
sideration will be made on the
basis of scholarship, personal im-
pression and financial need.
I Students wishing to obtain the
scholarships are asked to fill out
completely the application blanks
which are available in Dean John
R. Effinger's office and to give a
personal history of themselves as
well as the grades received in Uni-
versity courses to date. These ap-
plication blanks will be read care-
fully by each of the three commit-
teemrien and interviews will be
granted to students fulfilling the
initial requirements. Those making
the greatest impression upon the
committee in the interviews and
those having the greatest need for
the available funds will be given
scholarships ranging from $100 to
$200. The closing date for the appli-
cations has been set for Oct. 25.
Seniors to Have Preference.
Upperclassmen, especially seniors,
will be given preference in the allot-
ment of the $2,000 now available,
Professor Thieme stated yesterday.
Scholarship will be of primary im-
portance in the distribution, he de-
clared. In many cases in the past,
the $100 and $200 scholarships have
enabled students who were working
from 35 to 45 hours a week outside
of school to cut that extra time to
20 hours, leaving more than three
hours a day open for school work.
Scholarships to be distributed this,
fall will number between 10 and 15
depending on the amount necessary
in each case.

Rewarded at Last
( La r,' !ssocwiab'I Press)
CHICAGO, Oct. 14--Good deeds
done mre than 30 years ago to-
day began paying dividends to
Charley Morris, a Negro who had
beyn dodging hard luck unsuc-
cessfully since the Spanish-
American War.
Before the war Charley was a
$9 a week porter in a drug store,
where he became a warm friend
of Charles Walgreen, an $18 a
week clerk. Before the war end-
ed Waigreen was sent home ill
and the Negro and his wife
nursed him back to strength in
their own home. Then they part-
ed and for 30 years neither knew
where the other was.
Dame Fortune smiled on Wal-
green. He rose to the head of a
huge drug store chain. Morris
was luckless and while ill and
jobless saw an advertisement in
a Chicago paper the other day
bearing the name of "Walgreen."
As he sat in the reception room
a bald-headed man stopped and
looked at him.
"Isn't your name Morris?" he
inquired.
"Sure is, boss," said Charley,
and then, "say you ain't Charley
Walgreen that used to work with
me in a drug store before the
war?"
"That's exactly who I am,"
Walgreen replied, and the spec-
tators stared as the drug store
magnate grabbed the old Negro
and hugged him like a long lost
brother.
And, to make a long story
short, Charley walked out of the
office, with a life-time job with
his old boss.

German Party Leader Hopes to

WOULD SPEED UP GROUP
Suggests Germany Adopt System
of Responsibility Used in

(S Assocated Press)
BERLIN, Oct. 14.-Notwithstand-
ing Adolf Hitler's bitter attempt
for parliamentary government it
won't be necessary to tear down the
Reichstag building if he and his
followers realize their ambition to
establish a German fascist state.
Under Hitler the Reich still would
have its Reichstag, but the Reich-
stag members would not have to
wrangle among themselves f o r
weeks or months trying to come to
a decision. They merely would ex-
press their various opinions on the
question at issue, leaving it to one
man to decide and to bear the re-
sponsibility of his decision.
Urges Responsibility of Leaders
The new German state must be,
as Hitler expresses it, "organized
on the principle of the old Prus-
sian army, that of absolute author-
ity for each leader over those sta-
tioned below him, and absolute re-
sponsibility of eackh leader to his
superiors. This would not elimin-
ate parliament and councils but
their functions would be to advise,
not to decide."
Such a combination of personal
authority and responsibility co-ex-'
istent with elected advisory bodies,
Hitler believes, will not mean the
killing off of parliaments but their
elevation to a position of real use-
fulness. To use his own words:
One Man to Bear Responsibility
"Their advice then really will ad-
vise, but the responsibility can and
must be borne only by one person,
who at the same time must possess.
the sole authority and right of
command. Parliaments in and of
themselves are necessary, for it is
above all in such assemblages that
those minds to whom one later can
entrust especially important tasks
have an opportunity to lift them-
selves gradually above the crowd."
But the tellers who have been so
busy in recent Reichstag sessions
counting the inevitable votes can
take a vacation then. And the vot-
ing urns which today are a picture-
sque feature of the Reichstag fur-
niture can be stowed away in the
attic.

15 Reds Arrested in Attempt
Invade Labor Convention.

Io

(By Associated Press)
BOSTON, Oct. 14. - Fifteen per-
sons, five of them women, were ar-
rested today during a pitched battle
between police and a group of 50
communists who attempted to in-
vade the national convention of the
American Federation of Labor.
For fully 20 minutes the commun-
ists and police, hemmed in by a
crowd of more than 1,000 specta-
tors, fought outside the Hotel Brad-
ford, where the federation is in
session.
Heads were cracked and policel
uniforms were tgrn while patrol
wagons rushed police reserves to the
scene from a nearby precinct sta-
tion. Taxicabs pressed into service
as patrol wagons were filled while
communists struggled to rescue the
prisoners.
The communists gave advance
warning of their intention to stage
a denonstration today. For the
past several days hand bills were
circulated, calling upon the "milit-
ant workers of Boston" to join in
a demonstration today.
While the labor convention open-
ed this morning police were on
duty outside the hotel and in the
corridors leading to the convention
hall, but this detail was inadequate
to handle the fighting radicals.

AT CAMPU-SFORUM
Geologist to Speak on Value
of Present Exploration
to Civilization.
OPENS 1930-1931 SERIES
Prof. William H. Hobbs, head of
the Geology department and well
known authority on meterology
and arctic exploration will open
the series of All Campus forums
tomorrow afternoon at 4:15, in
Room D Alumni Memorial hall with
a talk upon the subject, "The value
of Present Day Exploration to Civ-
ilization."
Professor Hobbs' connection with
exploration rests chiefly with his
Greenland expeditions of 1927 and
1928. On these trips a meteorolo-
gical station was established at Mt.
Evens, and data on weather condi-
tions was collected which is of in-
estimable scientific value in deter-
mining the weather forecasts for
the North Atlantic.
"The North Pole of the Winds"
is the title of a book by Professor
Hobbs on the subject of his work
in Greenland. In this volume he
shows that Greenland is the north
pole of the winds for by means of
observation balloons and other re-
cording equipment the expedition
learned that"in the upper strata of
the atmosphere the winds blow in
toward the center of the great
Greenland ice cap; here they come
together and descend, after which
they blow out from Greenland in
all directions. The author also
discusses in the book the possibil-
ity of air routes between Europe
and America passing over Green-
land,

tensively through Europe, India
and Australia. He has studied
