WASHINGTON, April 5.-()-A
minute and searching inquiry into
the destruction of the U. S. S. Akron
will be opened'next Monday at Lake-
hurst, N. J,, by a naval court of in-
quiry headed by Rear. Admiral.W. A.
Phillips.
The court was ordered late today.
by Admiral William V. Pratt, chief
of naval operations after he and
other high officials had heard a per-
sonal account of the tragedy froni
the only three survivors, Lieut.-
Comm. Herbert V. Wiley, Richard E.
Deal, and Moody E. Ervin, enlisted
men.
Even as the survivors talked be-
hind closed doors at the navy de-
partment, there came from the many
naval craft anxiously searching over
an area of hundreds of square miles
off New Jersey and Deleware coasts
consistently disheartening reports of]
"no luck." Neither men or fragments,
of the demnished queen of the skies,
were to be se'en anywhere near the
scene of the airship's catastrophic
plunge early Tuesday
Search Ordered to Continue -
But Pratt, not yielding to the ap-
parently inevitable, sent out new or-
ders tonight tor keep up the search
until "there can be no thread ofK
hope." 1
Likewise he ordered the submarine
rescue squad out to start dragging
for wreckage. Pieces of the craft,
hie felt, miht contain the vital clues,.
to the cause of the crash, upon which
toe th'ee survivors could shed littlel
Tonight the three men known tol
be alive after the Akron's crash put{
in time on a Joint report, which they
will hand tomorrow to Secretaryrl
Swanson. Deal and Erwin were quar-f
tered at the naval hospital for treat-
ment of their slight hurts. Wiley
went to the home of a friend.
Tomorrow, President Roosevelt
himself plans to talk with them. T
Court of Inquiry Named
With Admiral Phillips on the court
of inquiry will serve Capt. H. A.
Shoemaker, commander of the airK
stationat Sunnyvale, Calif., a veteranl
of the naval air service, who will
fly across the country to take part.t
Comm. Garland Fulton, head of the
Lighter-Thn-Air division of the Bu-
reau of Aeronautics, will be the third;
member, with Comm. Ralph G. Pen-S
noyer acting as judge advocate.x
Phillips is commandant of the New
York naval district.
Uponatheir findings will hinge,t
probably, the court to be held by
Congressional investigations, f o r
which plans were started today. Thej
wave of sentiment for abolishment of
lighter-than-air craft met a reaction
in some quarters. A few Congress-
men spoke up against "hysterical"
conclusions.
One of these was Representative
Delaney, Dem., N. Y., who was as-
signed a sub-committee to begin anc
investigation the minute the court oi
inquiry hands in a verdict. BuL
Chairman Vinson of the House Naval
Committee insisted experience had
demonstrated the craft impracti-
cable.
HARRINGTON TO SPEAK

Clinic will speak at 4 p. m. today in1

Balkan Problems Discussed By
Count S Itrza It Last Lecture

Backs Farm Bill
By GUY M. WIIIPPLE
Contemporary problems in the
Balkans accruing from jealousies
and the greed for added territories,
and the "imperialistic vanity" ex-
hibited by colonial expansion were
discussed by Count Carlo Sforza yes-
terday afternoon in Natural Science
Auditorium as the last of a series of
eight public lectures.
The count took up in order the
Hungarian scheme to regain lost ter-
ritory and prestige, the Serbian-Bul-
garian dispute over Macedonia, the
Italian-Jugoslavian problem, and the
Italian-Jugoslavian-Albanian trian-
gle. He emphasized the Serbian-
Bulgarian struggle as typifying the
frantic attempt of one nation (Bul-
garia) to overcome quickly the ad-
vantage of another (Serbia) in order
to prevent a strange language and
strange customs being imposed on a
third (Macedonia).
"After the World War Macedonia
was turned over to Serbia," Count
( Sforza said. "Since the peoples of
Macedonia spoke a primitive South
Slav dialect, it became Serbia's task
to overcome this handicap to amal-
gamation by teaching them the lan-
guage of Serbia. It is this that Bul-
garia is fighting tooth and nail to
prevent."
Italy today is much stronger than
in pre-war days not because of Fas-
cism, but in spite of Fascism, Count
Sforza declared. He criticized the
Fascist government for aping old
imperialistic Austria-Hungary in its
policy of egging on neighbor nations
to war in order to further selfish in-
terests. "In copying Austria-Hun-
gary, Italy has forgotten the efforts
of 600,000 Italians who fought in
the World War," the count added.

public."
Ragland is also the author of "A

Love Letters For
Puzzle Broa
By RALPH G. COULTER
The educational programs of the
University Broadcasting S y s t e m i
brought at least one unexpected re-
sult this year. They started a pas-
sionate, if rather one-sided, love af-
fair that bids fair to occupy a good
many dull hours, now that the Serv-
ice has gone off the air for the sea-
son.
A Bay City woman listener, who
apparently has confused a number
of radio programs and has little co-
herent idea of what she has been
hearing over the air in the last three
months, has singled out for her at-
tentions an imaginary "Dick Telle,"
whom she addresses in care of the
"Ann Arbor University" and to whom
she pours out all her secret emotions.I

Repeal Of
LiquorAct
Is Possible~
State House Receives Bill
To Reject Michigan's
Prohibition Law
May Precede Action
To Legalize Beer
Modification Proposal Is
Backed By Coalition Of
Lower House Members
LANSING, April 5-(P--There
were some indications tonight of a
race. in the Legislature between a
bill for control of beer in Michigan
and another measure proposing out-
right repeal of the State prohibition
law, which automatically would leg-
alize beer without restrictions.
While prospects grew of controv-
ersy and delay in the Senate over an
administration bill to legalize 3.2 per
-ent beer, the House received, with
he recommendation of the liquor
committee that it pass, the Cuthbert-
son bill proposing absolute repeal.
Should this measure be adopted,
the State could, if there were no de-
lay, have beer in about a week. The
measure has been printed and on the
desks of members more than the re-
quired five days. It could be passed
by the House Thursday, under sus-
pended rules, and by the Senate five
days later.
Doubt Bill's Success
There was doubt as to how far the
bill would get, but indications were
that the repeal bill would be held
over the heads of the Senate as a
threat of what might happen if the
beer bill were unduly delayed.
Perturbed at prospects of contro-
versy and delay over the Adminis-
tration Bill to legalize 3.2 per cent
beer, Governor Comstock and House
members took matters into their own
hands. In an effort either to spin
the Senate into prompt action or to
take the lead themselves, a coalition
group of Republicans and Democrats
backed submission of the measure in
the House.
Submitted in House
The bill, identical in its terms with
the one prepared by the Governor's
special commission that studied
liquor control. systems, and intro-
duced in the Senate Tuesday, was
submitted in the House by Rep.
Frank Berka, Dem., Saginaw, and
Gus T. Hartman, Rep., Houghton.
Action was promised by the coal-,
tion. While some changes may be
made in the measure relative to the
number of breweries that would be
permitted and the fees for vending
establishments, it was predicted the
liquor traffic committee would report
it promptly to the floor
To Investioate
Share-Expense
Vacation Trips
Because of the illegal activities of
>ne of the so-called "share-expense
auto bureaus" attempting to carry
passengers from Ann Arbor to New
York for the vacation period, Michi-
gan Public Utilities Commission in-
spectors were investigating these un-
licensed cars attempting to leave
Ann Arbor, according to reports from
.he State Police last night.
One unconfirmed report was to the
effect that a large seven-passenger
sedan was stopped attempting to
leave Ann Arbor and its Detroit
driver apprehended yesterday after-
noon, because of failure to have
proper licensing and Public Utilities
certificate. Whether the student pas-
sengers received their fares could not
be learned.
Similar action was said to have
been taken by Public Utilities inspec-
tors from Lansing last December,
when an auto bureau attempted to
transport passengers to New York in
private cars. Numerous complaints
from passengers stranded on the road
by such firms led to a recent drive
in Detroit when a number of drivers
were given jail sentences for viola-
tion of the state public utilities act.
They are: Prof. Leslie A. White,
of the Department of Anthropology;
James B. Griffin, fellow in ceramics;
Volney Jones, research assistant in
the University Herbarium; and Gust,

One of the State Street drug
stores has a complete selection of
pipes for smoking co-eds to choose
from. These pipes are small and
slim and seem to hold less than an
ordinary cigarette. The drug store
says it has sold a number of them
to local women.
No special mild pipe tobacco for
Michigan girls either; they use the
regular man's stuff. The drug store
says it has several women student
customers who regularly buy two or
three packages of their favorite pipe
tobacco every week.
