far-reaching importance are in-
volved, and the question of their
soundness and expediency will de-
pend in large measure upon the
details of the adjustments which
may ultimately be proposed. There
will doubtless be much debate upon
them at the next session of Con-
gress-in terms of badic principle
- and not merely from motives of
partisan advantage-and the out-
come is altogether problematical.
But the fact that President Hoover
took the Congressional leaders into
his confidence in advance of the
announcement of his plans should
smooth the way in considerable
degree, as it doubtless did in
connection with the moratorium
pronouncement, and just as the
preliminary conferences with the'
financial interestsrhave helped to
effectuate those of his proposals
necessitating voluntary cooperation.
"The outstanding significance of
these recent devolpments is that the
Government appears no longer to
be disposed to permit untoward
events to take their course, regard-
less of the destructive forces which
they may be bringing into being."

Education Club Sho ws
Varsity Team Pictures
Motion pictures of the Michigan
varsity football team and intram-
ural groups in action were exhibit-
ed at a meeting of the Physical
Education club in the Union last
night, Harmon Wolff, '32, president,
announced.
Plans were made by the club,
about 50 members of which were
present last night, to hold a party
in the Women's Athletic building
on Nov. 7, the night of the Indiana,
said.
Smith proposed to her several.
times, Miss Keller said, but "he and.
his mother were more interested in
marriage than I was," she testified.
Explaining the presence of the
white shirt with purple stripes in
the Curtiss home, she said that on
the day of the murders he remarked
that his blue shirt, of the type he
always wore, was dirty. She offered.
to wash it, and gave him the white
shirt, belonging to the judge.
Miss Keller also testified that she
knew nothing of Smith's part in
the crimes previous to his arrest
and confession, An interesting side-
light was that she drank whiskey.
and beer on at least two occasions,
She could not dance, though she
accompanied various men to dance
halls.
Mrs. Smithadmitted on cross.
questioning that she . felt bitter
toward Kate, and felt that if she
had not "kept him at her home in
Ypsilanti, Fred would never have
committed that crime."
She indicated she had never at-
tempted to prove an alibi for her
son. When the defense tried to
attack her integrity by introducing
testimony of officers that Mrs.
Smith said Fred had spent the
night of Aug. 10 at home, it was
overruled by the court, and not
permitted to be put before the jury.
The statements, by Wayne county
deputies, were read into the record
after the jury had been excused,
however, thus furnishing the basis
for an appeal. It was said by state
attorneys that the defense was im-
peaching the testimony of a witness
on collateral information.
Warner C. Harris, chain store.
manager in Ypsilanti, was intro-
row morning.
