United States.
Economists who evolved a tentative
program for the world economic con-
ference, which is to be held sometime
this summer with Mr. MacDonald'
presiding, divided their detailed rec-
ommendations into six primary sub-
jects for discussion at that meeting.
1-Monetary and credit policy.
2-Prices.
3-Resumption of the movement of
capital.
4-Restrictions on international
trade.
5-Tariff and treaty policy.
6-Organization of production and
trade.
"Will the House have a general
idea of what proposals the British
government intends to ask the United
States to discuss?" George Lansbury,
floor leader of the Labor Party, asked
the Prime Minister during the ques-
tion period.
"The agenda drawn up by the com-
mittee of experts preparing for the
world economic conference covers the
field," Mr. MacDonald replied.
Mr. Lansbury persisted:
"This is very important. Will the
Ilouse and the country be given any
idea of the British proposals on the
war debts?"
"It has been stated again and
again," said the Prime Minister, "that
as far as war debts are concerned, we
want an agreement with America
which will enable us to pursue our
European policy."
The Labor leader continued to
press him.
"Surely," he said, "the Commons
and the country are entitled to ask
for a clear statement of the lines of
the policy on war debts."
The cross-examination was closed

SUMMARY
Michigan

LANSING, Feb. 13.-R)P)-Gove'nor
Comstock today threw his support to
the proposed legislative investigation
of Michigan State College.
The Governor announced his atti-
tude in answering a telegram from
H. B. Keydel, president of Michigan
State College Club of Detroit, pro-
testing against the proposed inquiry,
The executive said the investigation
i is needed to eliminate "an impres-
sion" that the college was "white-
washed" in previous inquiries.
" am in favor of the investiga-
tion," Governor Comstock said. "The
impression exists that under the last
administration it was 'whitewashed.'
Whether this is true or not, a great
many people think it is true. From
every standpoint, including that of
the college, I believe that an impar-
tial and public investigation is the
best way to arrive at the facts and
let the people know what they are."
Keydel's telegram, sent in behalf
of the Michigan State College Club,
expressed confidence in Dr. Robt. S.
Shaw, president of the college. It
stated the president should not be
subjected to the adverse publicity
that might accompany such an in-
quiry.

The possibility that hundreds o:
students will be forced to drop ou'
of school because of inability to pay
i the deferred "sixty-forty" tuitior
notes which are due today was seer
last night when it was revealed by anl
official source that 636 of the notes
are still outstanding.
Since under the terms of the state
law the University is required tc
I show a full paid tuition for every reg-
istration, the notes were possible
only through use of money taken
from university trust funds. Since
this money will have to be replaced
students signing the notes must pay
them or withdraw from the Univer-
sity, unless somecmodification of the
terms of the notes is passed.
September Agreement
According to the terms of the notes
signed by the students in September,
unless the loan is paid when due the
student must withdraw from school
and the University is further au-
thorized in that event to discontinue
its contact with him as a student.
The notes were issued under a plan
which has been in use several years.
Upon payment of 60 per cent of his
tuion alnd he promise to pay the
remaining 40 per cent at the begin-
ning of the second semester the stu-
(lnt is admittecd to the University,
Last year between 25 and 30 stu-
dents were forced to leave because of
inability to meet the 40 per cent pay-
ment in February. This year 1541
notes were issued in September. This
number is twice as great as the num-
ber last year and with 636 notes still
unpaid it is inevitable that a larger
number may have to withdraw this
year.
Service Charge
According to the terms of the
notes a service charge of $1 or in-
terest :at the rat of 6 perĀ° cent per
Year is charged by the University for
the deferring of the tuition. Under
this plan the University can replace
the money which was taken from
the trust funds with a suitable in-
tcrest return when the notes are
paid.
The income however is insuf icieit
to pay for the additional clerical.
work which has been necessitated by
the increased number of deferred tui-
tion loans this year. The University
is in no danger of loss on the notes
however in as much as a student
withdrawing from the University at
the beginning of the second semes-
terh is etitled to a.40 per cent re-
fund on is i5tuition.
The $1 srvice charge is paid when
the note is signed and upon inability
of the student to meet the note in
February the note takes the place of
the money which otherwise would
be refunded upon his withdrawal.
No action will be taken by Univer-
sity officials today regarding the.stu-
dents holding the unpaid notes.
