UNITY IN CONGRESS

Legislature Works on Taxation,
Economy, and Relief
Measures.
WASHINGTON, May 13.-(I)-
Congress labored hours at its tre-
iendous task today--a task liken-
ed by President Hoover to Winning
tie war and therefore warrantingj
use of similar emergensy powers"I
by the government.
W h iil e the legislature wrestled
with taxation, economy, and relief
!cgislation, the President as the day
ended cited again that unity of ac-
tion is in order "in an increasing
campaign to re- stablish public
.onfidence.
On capitol hill unity was in evi-
dence. The Senate spent but few
minutes on the usual debate intro-
ductory to such vital legislation as
the tax bill, cutting through to the
cores of controversy--the income
tax and tariff provisions.
Confidence prevailed there that
the non-partisan $1,500,000,000 un-
employment relief and construction
program c o u 1 d be satisfactorily
whipped into shape for enactment
this session.
In, his statement to newspaper-I
men, the President referred to this
extraordinary proposal as one for{
which he had no taste.
"But," he proceeded emphatically,
"we are fighting the economic con-
sequences of over-liquidization and
unjustified fear as to tte future of
the United States."
Some emergency powers w e r e
used in war time, he recalled, and
"we can use them to fight the de-,
pression, the misery and suffering'
from which are equally great."
The H o u s e of Representatives
showed a determination to keep!
war department expenses d o w n,
voting 141 to 135 to keep in the sup-
ply bill the dispute provision for
eliminating 2,000 officers.
Scalp and Blade Picks
John R. Edgar as Head
John R. Edgar, '33A, was chosen
as president for the coming year
by the members of the Scalp and
Blade, social fraternity composed
of men coming from Buffalo, N.Y.,
at their last meeting recently.
Edgar will succeed Julius Schwei-
gert, '32E, as president of the club.
Carlysle P. Speiz, '33E, will hold the4
office of vice-president, which was
held this year by Edgar. The treas-
urer for the coming year will bej
Chapin M. Lowel, '34E, who will fill
the office held by August G. Tro-,
oter. As secretary, Edward Stev-
ens, '34, will replace Alvin R. Moss,
'32.
The fraternity, which was origin-
ally organized in 1893, with the
Michigan chapter being founded in
1907. aims to stimulate the relations
between the many college men from
Buffalo and to award scholarships
to boys from their home town, Moss

The above photo shows the three sailors, two of whom lost their
holds and fell to their deaths, as they hung to a landing rope of the
Navy dirigible, Akron, when it broke away from an attempted landing
near San Diego, California. Robert Edsall, of Elkhart, Indiana and Nigel
Henton of Fresno, California, were killed, but Bud Cowart, 19, held on for
two hours and was pulled into the giant ship.
MONASTERY PAINTINGS FEATURE
MUSEUM EXHIBIT OF TIBETAN ART

Monastery paintings believed to
be at least 300 years old, and term-
ed the finest collection in the world
and the only one in this country,
feature an exhibit of Tibetan art
now on temporary display on the
fourth floor of the University mu-
seums.
The paintings are but a part of
the exhibit brought here by Dr.
Walter Koelz, of the Roerich insti-
tute, from Tibet where he has
F RENCHPRO ORi
Differences Between Classic
and Contemporary Drama
Covered in Talk.
Chief differences between French
classic and contemporary drama,
and a description and examples of
the latter were discussed in a lec-
ture given Monday in the Romance
Languages building by M. Daniel
Mornet, professor of French litera-
ture at the University of Paris and
now visiting lecturer at the Uni-
versity of Chicago.
According to Professor Mornet
the classic dramatists of France at-
tempted to portray characters who
sought, before all else, to know
themselves, to understand them-
selves, and to express themselves
precisely. Contemporaty dramatists
nearly always depict personalities
in a fashion that is practically an-
tithetical in that characters, espe-
cially in moments of crisis, speak
mostly in monosyllables, ahd some-
times do not speak at all.
Professor Mornet devoted the last
third of his lecture to reading and
interpreting passages from contem-
porary French drama that illustrat-
ed his point.

Bridge parties at Dearborn Inn-
the smart place to play bridge - are
always a success. In the spacious
Colcnial Lounge you can comfortably
entertain as many tables as you wish.
Early American atmosphere provides a
charming background for faculty par-
ties. A chcice of two unusual luncheon
menus is served in the Early Ameri-
can Dining Room at $1.25 and $1.00
a plate. Transportation for groups

spent the past two years. They will
be displayed during his stay here
in Ann Arbor, whikh will be for
several days.
While in Tibet, Dr. Koelz, who
was formerly connected with the
University museums as assistant
curator of ichthyology, spent a
considerable part of his time in the
Himalayas, being 13,000 to 20,000
feet above sea level most of the
time. He was collecting plants
primarily, but included zoological
and ethnological work in his rou-
tine.
Koelz is responsible for the bird
collection that is a permanent pos-
clssion of the museum, having
secured it while a member of the
MacMillan expedition to Greenland.
The exhibit contains such other
items as Afghan shawls, Persian
shawls, believed to be 300 years old,
Tibetan garments, Kashmir shawls,
guns with hand-carved barrels,
"poinson" cups, and other articles
of daily use in Tibet.
Koelz' zoological collection is en
route to the United States and has
not yet arrived. This is his own
personal display, and may be seen
on Sunday from 9 o'clock until
noon, and from 2 o'clock until 5.
Week day inspection hours remain
the same.
