SUNDAY, APRIL 30, 1933 when most current debts were contracted. In the face of what has happened in Iowa and what it :,agurs it is difficult to understand how practical- ;mninded persons can any longer argue against re- flation. One of the most significant aspects of the trouble in Iowa was that the mob apparently moved without a leader. When times become so hard that a group of men will act the way they did, spontaneously and without demagogic goad- ng, no one can exaggerate the seriousness of the situation. The uprising in Iowa was but one of a series that has occurred during the past year through the length and breadth of the land. Its cause lay partly in crop failures, chiefly in the present vi- cious deflation which has brought previous dis- content to a head. It was in no way an isolated example of what is happening under current con- ditions which demand the unjust repayment of debts in money harder to get than that which was loaned. No one defends the action of the Iowa farmers in using violence to halt the proceedings of a duly constituted court of law. Under democratic gov- ernment there should never be an excuse for the people to resort to force to carry out their will. But defendable or undefendable, the uprising took place, and the unrest of which it was sympto- matic cannot be denied. Reflation alone cannot restore prosperity. Its backers do not claim that it can. But it is absurd to talk of bringing order to an economic system based on a price level which by its fluctuations can annually rob social groups of millions and which offers no prospect of stability either to in- vestors or borrowers. A controlled price level would put chains on an anti-social force now allowed to wreak havoc with every change in the amount of trade. It would do much to guarantee society permanently against the danger of the sort of thing that took place this week in Iowa. We believe the President's reflation measure points to the establishment of a con- trolled price level. And we hold what happened in Iowa to be a potent argument for its adoption.

AT THE MAJESTIC "SECRETS" * **MARY PICKFORD AND LESLIE HOWARD ARE A SUCCESSFUL TEAM Teaming Mary Pickford of "Little Lord Fount- leroy" and Leslie Howard of "The Animal King- dom" might seem to be an almost inmpossible feat, but the producers of "Secrets" have done it and made a very successful picture out of the combination. Leslie Howard at the beginning of the picture is a bank clerk in a small New England town and Mary is the daughter of the president of the bank, doomed by her parents to marry a stuffy English lord. So they run away to California singing "Oh Susannah." Once in the promised land, they have trouble with cattle rustlers and their baby son dies. But they have some more children and Leslie finally becomes state governor and United States Sen- ator. There are, however, some interruptions in their marital happiness-the "secrets" of the title. The final scene of the show in which Mary and Leslie, now about seventy-five years old, are running away from their children and the world to begin life again where it was interrupted by the birth of the first baby is very strong. The modern automobile they are using for their escape has a radio in it and the orchestra starts playing "Oh Susannah" and the picture flashes back to their pilgrimage in the covered wagon. If that scene doesn't get you, you are immune to screen emotion. Leslie Howard and Mary Pickford are both strong in their parts. Mary captures your sym- pathies in this show quite as thoroughly as she used to do in her little girl parts and, while Leslie Howard looks a little out of place as a western rancher, so would a New England bank clerk. / e CetAnyuF Certainly you can m-a ~~ Just For a Cl I o . . o 7' '- ~ I V t _. .. -, < . . t , :, 14 ;' ...

'-B. S. Musical Events Abridged Texts Have A Legitimate Place. r HE INJUNCTION recently granted by a Boston Federal District Court judge to four text book publishers restraining the college Tutoring Agency in Cambridge from publishing, copying or selling any versions or abridgements of texts published by the companies is. undeniably just in the eyes of the law. The tutoring agency, it appeared at a prelim- inary hearing, had prepared mimeographed abridged versions of books used in college courses and offered them for sale to students and others. The publishers claimed, truthfully enough, that these abridgements infringed their copyrights and interfered with the sale of the books themselves. The fact remains, nonetheless, that there is a definite place and perfectly legitimate utility for sich abridgements. If the publishers refuse to nake them or charge exorbitantly for the priv- liege, there is some excuse for their preparation by a private person. .I many cases the author of a text book is a fine scholar in his special field and thor- oughly understands the rules of rhetoric but his text-book is so filled with superfluous examples, examples of the way something should not be done, useless repetition and extraneous facts that the result is a work in which it takes hours to penetrate to the bare facts. Most students have at one time or another been obliged to study from such a book. In such cases as this, an abridgement presenting clearly and succinctly the underlying principles of the course is a great aid o comprehension. A1so in some courses one or more texts with more than 800 pages are used. In reviewing the course for an examination a re-reading of these lengthy texts is obviously impracticable, so that here also an abridgement is of value. The danger present in the use of abridgements is, of course, that some students will disregard the text entirely and slide through the course with the use of the shorter books. This type of studying, however, will give a less complete knowledge of the course and will inevitably be reflected in the final mark. If these publishers don't want others to pre- pare shorter versionzs of their copyrighted books, the wisest course for them seems to be to make the abridged versions themselves. APotent Argument For Inflation. PROGRAM NOTES The University Symphony Orchestra, conducted by Professor David Mattern, will appear in the following program this afternoon at 4:15 p, m in Hill Auditorium. Overture, "Marriage of Figaro" .......... Mozart This gay and brilliant overture from Mozart's musical adoption of the Beaumarchais work of that name is characteristic of this charming "comedy of manners" which from the time of its first performance in 1786 has been a perennial and an eternal success. Even the composer writes back from Prague a year later, "The one subject of conversation here is-Figaro; nothing is played, sung or whistled but-Figaro; nobody goes to any opera but this same-Figaro!" Symphony No. 3, ("Eroica") .......... Beethoven Allegro con brio Marcia Funebre Scherzo-Allegro Vivace Finale-Allegro Molto Dedicated "to celebrate the memory of a great man" after the bitter disillusionment of Napo- leon's accession to the throne of France, this symphony transcends the personal limitations of its original hero to become an apotheosis of a heroic mankind who through his moments of exuberance and seriousness, childlike abandon and harsh conflicts, gains the power to triumph over the profound solemnity of death itself. Symphonic Variations ................ Boellman Ruby Peinert, Soloist Typically a virtuoso piece, this work exhibits the many sided technical possibilities of the 'cello in its cleverly constructed variations which are based on a theme of truly lyrical beauty. Minuet Dance of the Sylphs Berlioz Hungarian March With his usual intrepidity Berlioz does what he wishes to the traditional Faust legend-places him in Hungary in order to introduce a version of the "Rackowsky" March-and calls the "spooky" dance of unearthly spirits a Minuet. But forgetting the program-as the composer might as well have done-these selections from the "Damnation of Faust" constitute some of the best music that ever came from the emotional pen of this writer of immensities. -Kathleen Murphy GRiIFFEY RECITAL Genevieve Griffey, violinist, pupil of Professor Wassily Besekirsky, will give the following grad- uation recital at 8:15 p. m., Monday, May 1, in the School of Music Auditorium, to which the gen- eral public with the exception of small children is invited: Otto Graf will be the accompanist: Praeludium and Allegro ........

To The Editor: Now that Michigan women have been raked over the coals by An Interested Alumna, and the Ingham County News, for adopting "men's vices," may I venture to indicate that it is a rather difficult thing to attach any suggestion of the im- Student Health "BIRTHMARKS" One of the many erroneous beliefs in medicine among the laity is that the birthmark must be present at birth in order to be classified as such. The occasionally expressed popular idea that birthmarks result from maternal impressions is, of course, without any scientific foundation what- ever. Nothing could be farther from the truth. Birthmarks (nevi) to be sure are often present at birth or shortly thereafter, but they may make their appearance at any time from the cradle age to senescence. There are generally speaking two types of nevi (birthmarks) with various subtypes and combina- tions of these two classifications. The one type is the familiar port-wine mark or strawberry mark often seen on the face or back of the neck. These birthmarks come under the group of vascular nevi or those composed of blood vessels. These are harmless and are removed usually for cosmetic purposes or because of pressure on important structures. The other type of birthmark is the so-called cel- lular nevus, so called because in structure it con- sists of masses of normal tissues which are pecu- liar only in their excessive amount in the particu- lar spot. Moles fall into this second classification. According to the amount of pigment and hair present, we have various types of moles such as, pigmented moles, non-pigmented moles, pig- mented hairy moles and non-pigmented hairy moles. Some moles are potentially dangerous in that they may develop into one of the nost dangerous types of new growth (skin cancer). This tendency however, has been over emphasized, for practically every human being has one or more moles and the number of cancers which we see develop in them are infinitesimal when compared to the total population. There are two warnings to be issued with regards to moles: First, It is the bluish-black mole that is the most dangerous and, secondly, any mole regardless of color that shows evidence of irritation or further growth, spontane- ous or otherwise, demands immediate expert ad- vice. There is no reason why moles should not be removed when they are dangerous or when they ccnstitute an unsightly cosmetic blemish. How- ever, they should not be tampered with by the non-medical person. They are better left alone. -Health Service. Delivery CFS AnnAro < Ann~c IE y 214 South State Street 701 S.
