XLIH, No. 16 ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN, THURSDAY, OCT. 13, 1932 PRICE FIVE CENTS 'Avoid Fault) Governmenta] Ideas'--Hoover President Urges Lawyer To Combat 'Seductive Dangerous Theories' Supreme Court Is Called Impregnabhl Bar Association Exhorted To 'Scourge Profaners From Temple' WASHINGTON, Oct. 12. - P) - President Hoover told the Americar Bar Association tonight that "seduc- tive but unworkable and disastrous' theories of government are now be- -ing offered to the nation, and that the legal fraternity should "defenc our system of government against reckless assaults of designing per- sons." The chief executive spoke in Con- stitution Hall before a record gather- ing of American attorneys, their ranks augmented by members of the Supreme Court and by distinguished legal leaders from other nations. He was introduced by Chief J u s t i c e Charles Evans Hughes who extended to him that greeting of "our per- sonal ,confidence in his ability and purpose," which he recalled had been given by the same organization to President Wilson in 1914. Judicial System Responsible "It is your task," said Mr. Hoover to the lawyers, "to prove again what none knows better than you, that the very citadel of the rights of the poor against the oppression of rulers and against the extortions of the rapa- cious is the judicial system of the country, and that the impregnable apex of that system is the Supreme Court of the United States." He said it could be "a dangerous thing" if explanation was not given the people as to how often in history "the people's interest have been be- trayed by false prophets of a millen- nium promised through seductive but unworkable, theories of government. "The menace is doubled," he said, by the fact that these vain allure- ments are today being offered to our harrassed people by men of public reputation in economics and even by men in public life. ." American Rights Secure The President earlier had told his legal audience that American citizens now were more secure in their per- sons and liberties and in the posses- sion of their properties than at any other time or in any other nation in the history of the world. "I assert this," he said, "with full consciousness of many deficiencies of lawyers and of the law and its exe- cution. In spite of these, the state- ment holds." Asks Bar To Purge Profession Later, Mr. Hoover called upon the bar members to "purge your profes- sion of men inworthy of its trust." "You occupy a position," he said, "unlike that of other men, who may honorably pursue only their private gain. You are, besides that, quite specifically officers of government, sworn members of the courts in which you practice, and bound by oath to see not only that justice is done but that the laws are enforced. Too many. men have been allowed to take this oath and then be false to it. They use the complexities of law and procedure not to effect justice, but to defeat it. These men you must scourge from the temple which they profain." Speaking briefly of crime problems, the President reiterated suggestions that an effort be made to make less complicated the criminal law, which, he said, has become "a complex and often torturous thing." Court proce- dures likewise, he said, had become too unwielding. Glider Club To Start Instruction Today Instruction in soaring will be start- ed this afternoon at the Ann Arbor airport for members of the Univer- sity Glider club, N. H. McDowell, '33E, announced last night at the Glider Section meeting. More than 60 students have applied for mem- bershfi in the club. Some of these will have to be refused as the club is limited to 50 members because only one glider is available, McDowell added.

Henry Ford Provides Trailer For Railroad Jack's Travels I On his next trip to Ann Arbor, "Railroad Jack," Ann Arbor's nation- ally known memory expert, will be traveling in a 20-foot residence trailer hauled by a new Fordson trac- tor. The new means of conveyance is the gift of Henry Ford. Jack, whose permanent home is in Ann Arbor, travels around the coun- try during the summer and early fall pushing his red hand-trucks and an- swering historical questions in the instantaneous manner that has made him one of the most colorful figures on the Mcihigan campus. Late yes- terday afternoon he was trudging in- to Dearborn, pushing his cart before him, when a car stopped and a tall man alighted. "Hello, Jack," said the man. How- ever, the failing daylight coupled with Jack's age-weakened eyes made recognition impossible. The man con- tinued: "I remember you well do you know me?" "Since I've become famous every- one claims to know me," said Jack, his eyes twinkling. "But I do kow you," insisted the man. "I'm Henry Ford." "Glad to meet you again Henry. I'm John D. Rockerfeller," came back Jack, accustomed to being thus "kidded." "But Jack, take a look at me, I am Henry Ford." Jack looked more closely. He shook his head and looked again. "By Gosh, it is Henry Ford!" he exclaimed. It turned out that the two men had met before during the World war. Dates For Lit. School Voting Set By Council Class elections for the Literary college will be held on Oct. 19 and 26 and Nov. 1 and 3, in order of sen- iority, it was decided at the Student Council meeting last night. Senior Law elections will be held Friday of this week. The date for elections in other col- leges will be set in the near future, Joseph Zias, '33, president of the Council said. A freshmen smoker wil be held at the Union at 8 p. m. on Oct. 24 un- der the auspices of the Council. Box- ing matches, fencing exhibitions and other entertaining stunts will feature the program. Wilbur Bohnsack, '34, Alistair Mit- chell, '33, and Richard Norris, '33, are the members of the committee in charge of arranging the program. Due to the success of the pep meet- ing held before the Northwestern game, it was the consensus of opin- ion among the Council members that another one be held before the Princeton game, Oct. 28. The date has been set tentatively and may be changed in case it conflicts with homecoming events. Michigan will be represented at the Ohio game with at least one, and possibly two, cheerleaders as the Council passed a motion granting enough funds to send one of them to flhnooma'rhonfhr mohor wil They talked about various things for several minutes and then Mr. Ford asked: "How far have you pushed that cart?" "All the way from Ann Arbor," re- plied Jack. "Is it hard to push?" "Plenty!" said the weary Jack. With that, Mr. Ford took out a card wrote a few words on it and instructed Jack to take it to Frank Campsell, an executive in the Ford organization, and not leave until he had a new Fordson tractor. The next day when Jack applied to Mr. Campsell he found that Henry Ford was again there. This time the motor magnate suggested that he build Jack a line residence trailer for the tractor to haul around. At present, the Ford engineers are busy designing a 20-foot home on wheels. It will have every modern improvement and will weigh about four tons. "That's what happens when two famous men get together," comment- ed Jack today.

Wilbur, United States Secretary of the Interior, being given this noon at the Union by the Republican County Committee, John H. Huss, '33, recording secretary of the Union said yesterday. Following the luncheon, Wilbur will address a student forum in the as- sembly hall on the subject, "The President and his Policies." Mr. Wil- bur will probably answer the charges made by Henry T.

To Speak At Union Nellie T. Ross Asks Women To Wipe Out, 1928 Mistake A t t a ck s Tariff Policies Of Republican ,'Reign And Farm Board Waste Defends Garner As Honest And Able Ridicules Hoover's Dry Plank; Calls It "Pol- itical Imposition" Placing the blame for the econom- ic woes of the country on the reac- tionary policies of isolation and spe- cial privilege practiced by the Repub- lican party, Mrs. Nellie Tayloe Ross, former governor of Wyoming, in an address last night at the Whitney theatre, called upon the women of the country to rectify the mistake they had made in placing Herbert Hoover in the White House in 1928. Mrs. Ross denounced3the Smoot- Hawley tariff act of 1930, calling it the immediate cause of the depres- sion. The Fordney-McCumber bill of 1922 was, itself, much too high, she said, and the Smoot-Hawley act, dic- tated by Senator Grundy, following on the heels of the Wall Street crash, was nothing short of disastrous. Assailing the Farm Board, Mrs. Ross declared that the waste of the public money by this group was alone 'sufficient to cause the voters of the country to eject the Republican party from office. The Democratic party, she said, had pledged itself to a 25 percent reduction in the expenses of government by the elimination of the Hoover boards, bureaus and commis- sions. "25 percent" she said, "means that a major operation must be per- formed on the bureaucractic jugger- naut now riding over the people of the country." Defending Speaker Garner against the recent assaults on his integrity, Mrs. Ross declared that it was he who first suggested the matter of balancing the budget. During the first two years of his administration, she said, Hoover had never broached the subject to a Republican Congress. Garner, she asserted, had saved the country from the President's lavish spending. Praising the "fearlessness" of the Democratic prohibition plank, Mrs. Ross ridiculed the Hoover stand as an attempt at "repeal without re- peal." Under the President's plan, she asserted, the states would be giv- en the power to regulate "with the Federal government holding the strings." The people, she said, were tired of political imposition by the national government. State College Dean Claims Police Shadow EAST LANSING, Oct. 12. -()- Joseph F. Cox, dean of agriculture at Michigan State College, said today he had presented charges to Gov. Bruc- ker that state police had shadowed him while he was on a recent vaca- tion in the upper peninsula. Dean Cox's charges came as the grand jury investigation of Michigan State College and the Michigan State Institute of Music and Allied Arts stood temporarily recessed. Cox quoted Oscar G. Olander, com- missioner of public safety, as admit- ting that a member of the state police had been detailed to "cover" him, but the commissioner refused. to say who ordered the action. Olander, according to Dean Cox, said the in- vestigation had "revealed nothing whatever wrong." Sigma Rho Tau Holds Meeting For Freshmen Sigma Rho Tau, engineering public speaking society, hold its first meet- ing for freshman last night at the Union. More than 80O students, a large part of them freshman, were present. Professor G. E. Densmore of the speech department gave the opening talk on "The Value of Speech Edu- cation." Professor Densmore cited cases in business ilfe where a knowl- One In Killed, Many Hurt Disturbances; Police Arrest Many BELFAST, Oct. 12.--(GP)-British troops were hurried into Belfast to- day to cope with the new unemploy- ment riots following yesterday's out- burst of violence in which one man was killed and more than 30 persons seriously injured. A unit of the Inniskilling Fusiliers was brought in from the' barracks at Holywood. 'The King's Royal Rifles, it was announced, will arrive Friday. This afternoon, after there had been considerable shooting in the western part of the city; bringing armored police cars into action, the authorities announced they had the situation well in hand. Numerous arrests were made. In one street alone the police took 39 prisoners.

Pollock Urges Student Voters To Use Service Union Offers Caricature On Of Kipke , New Gargoyle Praise of the Union's absent voters' bureau was expressed in a Daily in- terview yesterday by Prof. James K. Pollock, of the political science de- partment. "The effort which is be- ing made," he said, "is to be highly commended. "Voting by mail is a privilege of which too few persons avail them- selves. In this election every vote counts and no qualified voter on this campus should neglect to make use of the privilege which is granted to him by numerous state laws." May Vote By Mail T'... .. r..a 'S.7..n . . . . . . .. L .1 of course be received in the home district by election day, said Profes- sor Pollock. "It is to be assumed," Professor Pollock declared, "that the ballots cast here would represent an above= average intelligence, and we badly need such ballots." Professor Pollock pointed out that in 1884 New York went for Cleveland by 1,049 votes, deciding the election, that in 1892 Ohio went for Harrison by 1,072, and that in 1916 Wilson won the Presidency by carrying Cal- ifornia by 3,906 votes. Gargoyle's first number under Ed- ward S. McKay, new managing edi- tor, makes its appearance on the campus today with an improved make-up and several typographical improvements. The cover of this issue is a carica- ture of Coach Harry Kipke done oy the art editor of the publication, Tom Powers. Powers has also done many other illustrations and cartoons for the magazine. The new football rules, Coach Yost, the Law Club, and the fraternity sit- uation all come in for their share of satire in this issue. As usual the re- views of recent phonograph records and the campus dramatics have their
