Drug Stores Vary
Of the several drug stores, one an-
nounced flatly that it would give no
credit and cash no checks. Another
said that it had been "liberal" but'
was planning to scale down "credit
extension." The proprietor of a cam-
pus chain store said that he would
grant credit as usual. One eating
house stated that it had established
a $1 check policy. A merchant ad-
vocated the transfer of customers'
debts to the banks in lieu of mer-
chants' debts. The idea of commer-
cial scrip is gaining ground.
Jewelry stores are not extending
credit although the proprietor of one
such establishment said that he
would repair broken glasses if the
students could be sure of ability to
pay within a very short time.
Hlouses Suffer

The "bank holiday" will sound the

Fraternities, depression r i d d e n,
badly in debt as a result of last year's
deferred pledging plan, suffering
from enrollment decreases, will prob-
ably find that wholesale houses can-
not extend them credit for more than'
about two weeks, it was announced.
After this time, they will be forced
to rely on cash surpluses.
A large proportion of the individual
members will be unable to pay house
bills this month because of the bank1
holiday. With this in mind and with
the credit situation near the satura-
tion point, many houses are prepar-
ing to discontinue the serving of
meals until thebank funds are again
available.
In the meantime, initiations in sev-
eral houses have . been postponed be-
cause freshmen are unable to meet
the necessary fees. Many other,
houses are accepting part payment

Union Program
Youthful Russian Pianist
Is Colleague Of Milstein,
Violinist Here Last Fall+
The appearance of Vladimir Horo- 1
witz, youthful Russian pianist, will
serve as a natural complement to the
earlier performance of Nathan Milu-
stein, Russian violinist, at 8:15 p. m.
tomorrow in Hill Auditorium, repre-1
sentatives of the University Musical
Society said yesterday.
Exponent of modern interpretation
of music, Horowitz, who will present
the ninth concert of the Choral
Union series, is ranked as one of the
three .outstanding musical products
of the Soviet regime in Russia; his
two colleagues,, the violinist Milstein
and the cellist Piatagorsky, have been
assqeiated closely with him through-
out his life. Milstein appeared here
this year in an earlier concert. :
Horowitz made his American debut
on Jan. 12, 1928, with the New York
Philharmonic Orchestra, and was?
termed "the most successful concert
artist to appear before the American
public since the debuts of Heifltz andi
Galli-Curci." Thirty-six concerts inj
88 days followed, including 19 ap-
pearaances with orchestra.
The following program has been
scheduled for tomorrow night: Bach-
Busoni, Adagio and Fugue; Haydn,
Sonata in E flat major; Brahms, Two
intermezzi, Op. 118, 119; Brahms,
Variations on a theme of Paganini;

Dietitians' Supervision;
Many Students Aided
MADISON, March 4.-(Big Ten)-
Three meals - breakfast, luncheon,
and dinner-at a total cost of be-
tween 53 and 58 cents a day, is the
contribution of the University of Wis-
consin Union to the campaign for
lower living costs for students at-
tending the state universitydhere.
Serving good food prepared underI
a staff of home economics dietitians,
the prices are called the lowest in
existence here at any time. The cost
of the breakfast is estimated at eight
cents, luncheon at from 20 to 25
cents, and dinner at 25 cents.
Menus for these meals are prepared
and approved by dietitians at the
university and the aim is stated to
be to give students .good, substantial
food that is needed by the human
body. ,Since the lower rates went into
effect this year it has been learned
that the saving has enabled many
students to remain in the university
who otherwise would have been
forced to drop out.
With prices for daily board at this
low level, and with room prices in
the university district ranging from
$1.50 to $2.50 a week, student living

Hodson, Indiana's left guard, ran

wore number "13" during the game
but proved definitely that he could
beat his number in scoring.
For the last three minutes of the
game the score was tied until Allen
made a foul shot and put Michigan
in the lead, only to have the winning
basket shot from the center of the1
floor.
Michigan came from behind to tie
the score with only three minutes to

Special Congressional Ses-
sion To Work Out Na-
tion's Financial Woes
Hoover, Roosevelt
Discuss Guaranties
Enid, Oklahoma, Bank Is
Closed By. Guardsmen;
Exchanges Shut Down
(By The Associated Press)
Banks in each of the 48 states were
closed under holiday orders or were
operating under restrictions Satur-
day night as financiers, economists
and government leaders laid plans to
bring America back to financial nor-
malcy.
Predictions gained strength in
Washington that a special session of
Congress would be called promptly
to thresh out the entire situation. In-
dustrial and financial leaders every-
where expressed confidence that na-
tional legislation would overcome the
emergency.
Reports also were current in Wash-
ington that Herbert Hoover and
and Franklin D. Roosevelt had dis-
cussed a possibility of a 50 per, cent
federal guaranty of bank deposits.,
Although the restrictions prevailed
in 48 states and the District of Co-
lumbia, there were many communi-
ties-even in states having bankingJ
holidays-where financial business
was conducted as usual.
In only once instance was a bank
reported closed by force. That was
in Enid, Okla., where national
guardsmen enforced Gov. William H.
Murray's mandatory closing procl-
mation on the First National Bank.
The first thought of business in
general was to provide sufficient cash
for pay rolls and routine expense.
Although nine-tenths of business
normalcy is transacted by check-
and checking was impossible every-
where-no cities reported serious cur-
tailment in commercial and indus-
trial activities.
The New York Stock Exchange and
the Chicago Board of Trade, largest
trading organizations respectively in
securities and grain futures, were
closed and so were smaller markets
of the kind. Livestock and cash grain
markets remained open, but transac-
tions were at lower volume.

WASHINGTON, March 4.-(P)--
Another precedented shattering move
by President Roosevelt t o n i g h t
brought his cabinet into full com-
mand of the government just a few
hours after he himself had taken the
oath.
Moving with a bold strike, the new

Dean Griffin Advocates Federal
Guarantee Of Bank Deposits

By JOHN PRITCHARD
Necessity for an unequivocal 100
per cent guarantee of bank deposits
made by the Federal government, and
for all banks, state or national, in
the United States, was emphasized
yesterday by Dean Clare E. Griffin of
'the School of Business Administra-
tion, in an interview wherein he re-
iterated and clarified the plan which
was recently drawn up by a commit-
tee of five University economists and
sent to Washington.
It was ' stressed by Dean Griffin
that the plan is meant merely as a
temporary measure, designed to con-
tinue only as long as it may be nec-
essary to lift banking credit out of
its present straits. It was further

"We consider this a alternative to
inflation. Nevertheless, such a plan
might lead to a rise in the price.
level, because it will make the banks
more free to lend money."
Asked how large a fund would be
needed in order to guarantee bank
deposits -to the amount of 100 per
cent, Dean Griffin said, "Nobody can'
answer that, but our theory is that
not a great deal of money will be
necessary. The people will not create
a run on the banks if they know that
they can get their money any time
they want it. There has been no run,
for example ,on the Postal Savings
Banks.

promised by the new president, al- 1
though a few indicated a skepticism
of how the promised reforms would
be carried out. A majority of those
interviewed praised the inaugural ad-
dress for its courage and indication
of sincerity.
Dr. Frederick B. Fisher, pastor of
the Methodist Episcopal church, ex-
pressed the general opinion in the
following words: "I thought the ad-
dress especially fine. It indicated a
real grasp of the present crisis, espe-
cially of national issues. I didn't feel
that he had a full grasp, however, of
international problems. The address
dealt mainly with national problems.
I thought that it was really great.
Fr. Thomas R. Carey, pastor of St.
Thomas Catholic church, said: "If
we are to get out of the present wil-
derness of indecision and despair,
President Roosevelt must lead the{
way. His inaugural address has
struck a hopeful note. We should all
earnestly pray God to give him the
vision and courage that he will sorely
need for this stupendous task."
A doubt as to what line President
Roosevelt's reforms would follow was
expressed by Mayor H. Wirt Newkirk.
"Nobody can tell what his plans are.,
He will do the best he can but he
has outlined no plan. He doesn't
know what he will do and I don't

alternatives. The historic relation-1
ship of suicide and religion will be
treated, together with the possible
influence of the modern skepticism
of a life after death.

Wood of the department of sociology,
recently returned from Europe, will

WASHINGTON, March 4.-VP)-
President Roosevelt, in a momentous
inaugural address immediately after
taking his oath today, told the Na-
tion he would. ask for war-time pow-
ers if necessary to meet the national
emergency.
The newly inaugurated .President
said he would call the new Congress
into special session to carry out his
planned attack on the crisis, saying
"we must act quickly,"b ut he did
not reveal when the session would
be called.
Among the policies" outlined by the
Nation's new leader was that "there
must be provision for an adequate
but sound currency."
Even as the inaugural ceremonies
were beginning, the new President
was applying all his energy to a re-
construction of the banking situation
with a prospect of far-reaching ac-
tion before his Administration was
many hours old.
As he conferred with his chosen
advisers at his hotel suite this morn-
ing, Herbert Hoover, a half mile away
in the White House, was ending his
four troubled years of office at grips
with the same problem. The whole
inaugural scene was overcast with a
feeling of suspense and tense expec-
tancy.
