by Bingham Appears.
WASHINGTON, May 24.- (P)-2
The troubles American farmers are
having with surplus crops and low
pri'ces were told in. the Senate to-
day as a part of the dragging de-
bate on the billion dollar revenue
bill.
In. the end, however, it rejected
the export debenture plan which
was proposed as an amendment to
the tax bill.
The House, ineanwhile, washedt
its slate clean of election contests
by disallowing those which were
brought against Rep. Coyle and
Difney.
That done, the House looked for-
ward, to devoting the remainderof
the session to relief measures d-1
signed to aid the city and rural1
dweller alike. Speaker Garner said1
today his $2,100,000,000 relief pro-1
gram to provide jobs would, be senti
to the ways and means committe e
this week where speedy action isj
in prospect.;
Prohibition Test Seen
Another Senate test on prohibi-
tion was promised when Sen. Bing-
ham, whose efforts to legalize beer
have been unsuccessful, introduced1
a resolution to repeal the Eight-9
eenth Amendment and have it lieI
on the table. The vote will prob-
ably come when he moves to haver
it taken up. That will be soon, he1
said.
While farm relief was discussed
on the Senate floor, the finance
coma itte Amended the revenue bill,
to pSace a 10 percent sales tax on
automobile tires and tubes in place
of the import levies now in it.
Later Sen. Walsh announced he
would offer a general sales tax of
one and three-fourths percent as a
substitute for the excess taxes in
the measurel. Rep. Rainey, the
Democratic leader, said he believ-
ed that sales tax adherents were
being gained in the House where it
was twice rejected.
Urges Budget Balance.
Norris in offering the export de-
benture plan - a system whereby
farmers would get half of the
amount of the tariff on a product
exported-urged prompt disposition
of the vital budget balancing bill.
Earlier in the day, the finance
committee voted to make the rates
on automobile tires and tubes a
flat 10 percent sales tax instead
of a tax of five cents and three
cents a pound, respectively.
It also agreed to cut the proposed
25 per cent tax on race track ad-
mission to 10 per cent - the same
rate as applied on other admissions.
Despite a protest from banks
collecting the*two cents tax on
checks, the committee stood by this
proposal.

PNEUMONIA SETS IN,
Condition of Student Injured
in Class Games Termed
Very Serious.
An attack of pnqumonia has ren-
dered serious the condition of
Berne T. Gustafson, '35E, who has
been confined in the University
hospital with an infected foot since
he injured it in the class games
three weeks ago.
Pneumonia has been feared for
several days, and its presence was
confirmed late last night by Dr. A.
C. Kerlikowske, chief resident phy-
sician at the hospital, who said
that "his condition is very serious
indeed, and much worse than yes-
terday."
Gustafson, whose home is in Mel-
rose, Mass., hurt his foot during the
tug of war between the freshmen
and sophomore classes during the
Spring games. The sophomores,
outnumbered many times, tiedtheir
en4 of the rope to a plow, anda'
number of freshmen including
Gustafson, found it necessary to
dislodge the implement before any
further progress could be made. In
the ensuing fracas, the sharp point
of the plow cut a large gash in
Gustafson's foot. He was taken to
the Health Service, where he was
treated until the infection became
so great that it was necessary to
remove him to the hospital.
NEWEST PLANET
IS NAMED '1932'
And It's Only 4,350,000 Miles
Away, Say Discoverers.
HEIDELBERG, Germany, May 24.
-(EP)-The Heidelberg observatory
tonight announced the discovery of
a new planet, which it tentatively
named "1932," which can attain a
proximity of 7,000,000 kilometers to
the earth.
(This is approximately 4,350,000
miles.)
NEW YORK, May 24.-()-The
Heidelberg "planet" is a very small
object and a few miles in diameter.
It is one of the celestial bodies
usually called a planetoid.
More than 1,000 of these planet-
oids have been discovered in the
past few years. Most of them are
at a great distance from the earth
in orbits far out between Mars and
Jupiter.
The largest of them is about the
size of England if that country
could be rolled into a ball. Most of
them are quite small and the im-
portance of this latest discovery is
its extreme closeness to the earth.

Adult Education, which are being
held here this week under the aus-
pices of the University Extension
Service and the Michigan State
Federation of Women's Clubs yes-
terday went into the second day

nent and R. B. lall of the Geogra-
phy depa rtment.
The delegates were entertained at
t tea given in Betsy Barbour dormi-
tory alter the conferences.
Prof. Campbell Speaks.
Speaking of the kind of produc-
tions which should be given by the
Little Theater, Professor Campbell
expressed his inability to prescribe
a set of rules that would insure the
success of all dramatic productions,
but pointed out that there are cer-
tain tendencies which should be
followed in the selection of plays
for amateur productions. "There
ar~e good plays being written in
America these dlays by American
dramatists," said Professor Camp-
bell, "and it is too bad that more
of them are not played."
He admitted that most of the
rules that he was setting forth were
contradicted by the popularity of
"There's Always Juliet" which was
played last night but explained the
difference on the grounds that ex-
perienced actors can put over plays
which are very difficult for ama-
(eurs to produce.
'Professor Hall, speaking of the
P over-population of Japan and the
Ishortage Of food, expressed an opin-
ion that the recent disturbances in
Manchuria are an outgrowth of the
crowded conditions in Japan. "Ja-
pan is increasing its population,,"
said he, "and canont keep pace in
the increase of its food supply."
Will Entertain Visitors.
This noon the officers of the
Southeastern district wil entertain
the visitors at a luncheon to be giv-
en i the ballroom of the League.
A garden of wild flowers will be
dedicated in the Arboretum today
to the memory of the late Mrs. M.
E. Thompson, who was founder and
first president of the Institute. The
dedication exercises will be opened
by a Greek ritual dance, which will
be presented by sixteen freshmen
girls, participants in the Freshman
Pageant.
This meeting of the Institute, the
first of its kind to be held, will be
an annual affair, it was announced
by Mrs. M. C. Fraker. of Ypsilanti.

STUDENTS
PLANS TO
CAMPERS
CT ASSIST
IN CITY
A meeting was held in Lane I tall
last night of all the students inter-
ested in the follow-up work of the
Fresh Air camp. This group has for
its purpose as outlined by Harry
Graham, -'33, chairman of the Stu-
dent; Christian association execu-
tive comin ttee on Student Fellow-
S;ip to reate contacts with the
boys that attend the camp, to assist
them in establishing higher ideals,
and to help them take advantage of
the greater opportunities in life."r
The men at the meeting have
made definite plans to contact with
some of these boys in Detroit. The,
need for this work was realized
when the case study of 90 of these
boys was revealed by Marshall H.
Levy, of the Sociology department.
Forty-six per cent of the boys stud-
ied are now socially well adjusted,
and 54 per cent have some slight
maladjustment that such work as
the Student Fellowship committee
is advocating could cure.
According to Louis Riemann, the
originator of the camp, this is one
of the most progressive steps that
has been taken by the individuals
controling the cain). tie said that
tae considers this proposed actioni a
necessary corollary to the comple-
tion of the camp's activities.

Mayor Murphy Is Scored; Partyt
Called Vacillating',
,[ reachierous.
Branding: the Socialist party, itsr
wok and the vacillating policy of
Mayor Murphy of Detroit as treach-
erous and cowardly, R. D. Baker, fort
several years a communist orgaiz-
er it Michigan and a charter mem-e
her of the Communist party, con-
cluded the program of Union for-
ims for the year with an address ont
"The Appeal of the Party to the
Vote" last night at. the Michigan
Ulnion.
Mr. Baker outlined the plans andx
aims of the Communist party by1
saying that Communism aimed tol
arbolishn capitalism by revolutiont
and substitute a system. of non-ex-
ploitation of the workers. Commun-
ists in this country are organized to
promote mass resistance and strug-
gle by inciting mass meetings and
marches against the capitalists, Mr.
B~aker said. T.he Ford riot and oth-
er such disturbances were cited as
examples of this organization.
rhat the standard of living of the
working man had ben reduced fifty
per cent in the last few years andr
that the prosperity of the post-war
period was gone forever was declar-
ed by the speaker. I-e also stated
that any relief from the depression
would be only temporary under the
capitalist system, and that it would
be followed by worse conditions
than at present.
Considerable discussion ensued in
the discussion following the speech
between members of the Michigan
Socialist club and Mr. Baker. Neal
Staebler, son of a former mayor of
Ann Arbor and for several years ac-
tive in socialist circles read exerpts
from the platform adopted recently
by the Socialist party at the con-
vention in Milwaukee.--
GRIFFIN TO PITCH
FOR STATE TODAY
Stiar Lasing Pitcher Will Try
to Master Wolves.
Left-handed Charlie Griffin, star
Michigan State pitcher, will at-
I tempt to continue his complete
mastery over the Michigan nine
when the two teams clash at East
Lansing this afternoon.
Griffin, a senior on the Spartan
baseball squad, has taken a great
personal delight in beating the
Maize-and- Blue nines during the
past three years, and only once has
he failed to completely subjugate
the Wolverines.
The lone failure was recorded
during the first meeting of these
two teams this season, when they
played a 3 to .3 tie in sixteen in-
nings, oi Ferry Field, May 3.
Michigan is somewhat bowed by
a pair of defeats last week-end at
the hands of the Purdue and Illinois
nines, both games being lost due to
mental slowness. Practically the
1 same lineup that faced the Boiler-
[ makers will take the field for the
Wolverines this afternoon. Manuel,
rDaniels, Waterbor, and Superke will
comprise the infield with Braendle,
Petoskey, and Wistert playing the
f outfield. McNeal and Tompkins are
i lated to share the hurling duties
a while Difl'ley will catch.

HOOVERH EL0 gTES

Texas Pledge of 49 for President
Makes Nomination Certain;
Garner Receives Votes.
(Fay the Assoeatl d Prss)
While President Hoover disussed
prohibition and other matters con-
riected with the approaching na-
Ronal convention with three party
leaders late yesterday, he gained
;he indisputable pledge of sufficient
lelegates for renomination when
'exas instructed its delegation of
19 for him.
This large block of convention
votes sent Mr. Hoover's total of
)ledged delegates to 621, or 43 more
khan the majority of 578 needed
for the nomination.
.In addition, local party leaders
n 14 states claimed 423 more dele-
;ates for the Hoover column for
t grand total of 1,044 out of the
1080 selected to date. Joseph France,
of Maryland, the only avowed op-
)onent of Mr. Hoover for the nom-
nation, disputes this claim.
Democrats selected 52 delegates
'csterday, Texas giving its 46 to
:=eaker Garner amd Delaware in-
structing six for Franiklin D. Roose-
yelt.
The action of the Texas Demo-
c-rats projected Garner out of the
favorite son class and moved him
into third place in the delegate
-ace with 90 convention votes, in-
;luding California's 44.
