THREE GOVERNORSl WILL BE__ELECTED Mississippi, Kentucky and New Jersey to Choose Chief Executives. (By Associated Press) Three states - Mississippi, Ken- t ucky and New Jersey-will elect governors at next Tuesday's off- year elections. In Mississippi where Democratic nomination is equivalent to elec- tion, the voting will be hardly more than a formality. Mike Conner is the Democratic nominee. He will take office Jan. 1. The campaign in Kentucky has been confined for the most part to the administration of the state highway department. Ruby Laffoon, circuit judge, is the Democratic candidate. He favors the present partisan arrangement of the high- way commission. Mayor William Harrison of Louisville, heading the Republican ticket, would return the board to its former bi-partisan set-up. Huge Tax Suit Favors Du Ponts in Delaware WILMINGTON, Del., Oct. 29.-(A') -Federal Judge Nields today held in favor of the Delaware Trust Co., executor of the estate of William Du Pont, in its suit for recovery of $283,000 inheritance taxes with in- terest. The government sought original- ly to collect $1,297,881, but only about 20 per cent was paid. The decision is expected to be appealed. Judge Nields held unconstitu- tional previously the section of the Internal Revenue Act, which de- clared any transfer of property val- ued at $5,000 or more, made within two years before death, to be in contemplation of death." The opinion today involved trans- fers amounting to $6,433,367 to Du Pont's son, daughter and daughter- in-law. The abandoned bed of the Miami and Erie canal at Hamilton, 0., has been turned into gardens forun-s employed. Capone's Bodyguard Found Carrying 'Gat' I ,.

O'Grady today to answer charges of using "third degree" methods in the questioning of an 18-year-old youth last Sunday. The complainant, Alfred Schler- eth, charges that Detectives Joseph Young and Marshall Wallen ar- rested him at 1 a, m., Sunday and took him to a room in the Canfield station, where they beat him with a piece of rubber hose in an effort to get him to admit a theft which he says he knew nothing about. LUXURIES, SUBJECT OF ENGINEERS TALK 65 YEARS AGO MICHIGAN WAS MOST DEAMOCRA TIC SCHOOL, AUTHOR SAYS Profession Will Enter Field Wealth Distribution Says Gwiasdowski. of Engineers are responsible for many of the luxuries that we enjoy, Prof. A. P. Gwiazdowski of the en- gineering department said in a radio talk yesterday afternoon over station WJR. They have put many conveniences within the reach of people through mass production. The engineer has coordinatedl the efforts of the chemist, metal- lurgist, physicist, mathematician, bookkeeper, floor sweeper, and tropical savage to create a perfect product at the lowest possible cost, Gwiazdowski stated. The every day rule for the pro- duction engineer is, "Subdivision of operations is a function of accur- acy," Professor Gwiazdowski said. The subdivision of operations de- creases the time element, and therefore the price of the finished product, he said. This simple rule has mane it pos- sible for millions of American fam- ilies to own automobiles, radios, telephones, w a s h i n g machines, vacuum cleaners, oil burners, and in the near future the same will apply to aeroplanes. The engineer will invade the field of wealth distribution before long, Professor Gwiazdowski said. "Here, again, the engineer's sense of jus- tice, his desire to see all humanity well fed, well clothed and provided with the necessities for cultural liv- ing will produce an economic mir- acle." Roy Chandler, Fayette, Ala., rural mail carrier, has traveled more than 10 times the distance around the world in 25 years. Statement Result of Discovery in Journal of English Traveller. 65 years ago the University of Michigan was "probably the most democratic school in the whole world," to quote Charles Wentworth Dilke, an English author who came to Ann Arbor during his tour of all English-speaking, and English-gov- erned countries. Discovery of this piece of jour- nalistic praise of the University of Michigan is due to Samuel S. Isa, of Ann Arbor, who was examining author. Lauding the universities of the a book of the travels of the English western states over those of New England Dilke had this to say: "One of the difficulties of the New England colleges has been to recon- cile university traditions with de- mocracy; but in the western states there is neither reconciliation nor tradition, though universities are plenty. Probably the most demo- cratic school in the whole world is the state university of Michigan, situated at Ann Arbor, near De- troit. It is cheap, large, practical; twelve hundred students, paying only the ten dollars entrance fee, and five dollars a year during resi- dence-to contrast with the 8,500 enrollment and $98 tuition of 1931 -living where they can in the lit- tle town, attend the university to be prepared to enter with knowl- edge and resolution upon the af- fairs of their future life." Stressing the simplicity of the organization he went on with "These things are democratic, but it is not in them that the essential democracy of the university is to be seen. There are at Michigan no honor lists, no classes in our sense, no orders of merit, no competition. Love of labor instead of competi- tion in studies was the thing which he most admired at Michigan. "It might be supposed that these strange departures from the sys- tems of older universities were ir- regularities, introduced to meet the temporary embarrassments inci- dental to educational establish- ments in young states. So far is this from being the case that, as I saw at Cambridge, the clearsight- ed men of the older colleges of America are trying to assimilate their teaching system to that of Michigan-at least in the one point of the absence of competition. They assert that toil performed under the excitement of a fierce struggle between man and man is unheal- thy work, different in nature and in results from the loving labor of men whose hearts are really in what they do: toil, in short, not very distinguishable from slave labor." He explains the reason for the strange governing of the University when he says, "It is explained when we look to the source whence the funds of the university are drawn-- namely, from the pockets of the taxpayers of the state." 12 Year Old Killer Given Life Sentence ASOTIN, Wash., Oct. 29.-(IP)- Convicted of murder, 12-year-old Hubert Nicolls, Jr., faced life im- prisonment in the penitentiary to- day with a degree of happiness. Smiling on the jury that took two ballots to find him guilty Wed- nesday of shooting Sheriff John Wormell, 72, during a grocery rob- bery Aug. 5, the frail 60-pound school boy said: "Well, I'm glad its over and I'm happy they didn't send me to an insane asylum, for even smart men go nuts in a mad house." Superior Judge E. V. Kuykendall ordered the boy returned to the courtroom today to hear the -life sentence pronounced. It was made mandatory by the verdict.

The University broadcasting serv- ice has received requests from 137 Michigan high schools asking for special programs, Prof. Waldo Ab- bot, director of broadcasting serv- ice, stated yesterday. A circular letter was sent in Sep- tember to all high school principals in the state offering to broadcast direct to high school classes. In the replies, subjects requested vary from readings from the works of Robert Burns to a talk on aviation. The speeches chosen will comply with the requests of the high schools, Prof. Abbot stated, but will be written so that they will ap- peal to the general radio audience. Each talk will be introduced with the name of the teacher and high school making the request, and whenever possible individual stu- dents in the listening class will be' addressed. Recent experience has shown that those talks whichhend with a for reading list are satisfied by in the subject discussed create the greatest interest. These requests for reading lists are satisfied by Miss Edith Thomas of the Univer- sity library. The Broadcasting Service mailed cards to every member of the Uni- versity faculty, in September, ask- ing for a list of available topics. A favorable number of replies were received, but because of the un- usual demand those members of the faculty who have not returned these cards with suggested subjects are requested to do so at once. The Speech Week Programs which start Nov. 9 have aroused much interest among the high schools. Registrar Ira Smith is ar- ranging a series of talks addressed to high school seniors for the week starting Nov. 30 and other depart- mental weeks will be scheduled later.
