"Hoover's A Campaign of Fear" Mr. Roosevelt renewed his asser- tion that the President was conduct- ing a campaign of fear and said that "no doubt" he was seeking to extend that campaign a few nights ago when he "made the statement that if the policies, he had so valiantly develop- ed be not continued the grass would grow on the streets of the cities.'" "Well." the New York governor .added, "the grass has little chance to grow in the streets of our cities now. It would be trampled into the ground by the men who wander these streets in search of employment." Mr. Roosevelt said that to con- dense the sum of all the arguments the President has made for his re- election "into two sentences is not hard." "He asks for a vote of confidence because he says that but for him the situation would have been worse," the governor continued. "He asks the nation to wait and hope for some miracle or invention to make things better. "My political philosophy and my chart of action for the country's fu- ture differs widely from those of President Hoover. This program in- trusted to me is essentially a national program. "An Unselfish Program" "Such a program permits of no yielding to sectional or immediate selfiuslh special interests such as those represented by the clients and back- ers of Mr. Grundy.,' Referring to the American system of government which he said Mr. Hoover had mentioned in his recent New York speech, Governor Roose- velt said "The American government itself was founded on the principle that many men from many states with many economic views and many economic interests might through the medium of a national government; build for national harmony, national unity and interdependent well-being."

Nov. 3. _._ i) Voters Nov. 8 will look over the largest bal- lot in the history of the state. Two sheets of paper each almost the size of a newspaper page will he handed each voter on entering the polling booth, the department of state an- nounced today. Candidates of 10 parties will have their names on the ballot. Twy are the Republ ican, Dermocra t, Socialist, Prohibition, America, Socialist ..a- bor, Communist, Proletarian, Liberty and Farmer Labor, and will appear on the ballot in this order. The Republican and Democratic parties are the only ones with com- plete tickets. The American party has no candidates except in Wayne county. Two parties-the American and Proletarian-haven't any Pres- idential or vice presidential candi- date. The Communist, Proletarian, Lib- erty and American groups appear on the Michigan ballot for the first time. The eight issues on the general election ballot will take up 45 inches of space. Some counties have print- ed the oleo referendum ballot in two columns to make the huge sheet easier to handle, the first time this has been done in the history of the state. Working Cass Conditions Bad, Briton States Former Commons Member Calls Present Supply And Demand Paradox "In order to retain hold of ex- port markets of the world, through intense competition, working-class conditions have become worse and worse," said A. Fenner Brockway, former member of the British House of Commons, in a talk at the latiral Science Auditorium last night. "Mountains of goods and machines of miraculous capacity and beside them millions of people in want is the situation today," Mr. Brockway pointed out. "You must give those people'purchasing power to buy those goods, before you can ever improve ecnomic conditions,' 'he said. Mr. Brockway suggested a National Economic Council to take the whole economic life of his country, a coun- cil composed of trained men, who will operate a plan which will benefit the community as a whole. The speaker drew an analogy be- tween the present struggle against economic conditions in England and the struggle against political condi- tions there in the first part of the nineteenth century and voiced the opinion that mass arising would se- cure relief, as it did then. Partner' Ballot I Method Of Protesting Vote Political Group Arranges Co-operation Of Voters, At Polls Tuesday A highly novel and interesting plan for the express benefit of Democratic and Republican voters who wish to cast a "protest" ballot Nov. 8 has been created here by the League for Independent Political Action, it was announced yesterday. Under the proposed plan, Repub- licans who wish to vote the Socialist ticket without "giving" a vote to the Democrats, may notify the Rev. Howard R. Chapman, the league's representative, of their wish. The Reverend Chapman will pair off the Republican with a Democrat who likewise wishes to vote Socialist, and the two will go to the polls together to vote for Norman Thomas. The re- sult will be two Socialist, or "protest" votes, while neither the Republicans or Democrats have gained by the ac- tion of either of the individuals con- cerned. Theirs is a net loss of one vote each. John Dewey, chairman of the league, said that the "vote exchange" is a result of the petition of many voters who want to make the "pro- test" without letting the traditional rivnit imindtr +he tn-nnarty -oetpm Leaders Of i Science Will Gather Here Program For Convention Of National Academy Of Science Is Announced Meetings Are Open To General Public Membership In Academy Is Termed High Honor.; 250 Members Are Listed The program of the annual fall convention of the National Academy of Sciences, which will be held here November 14, 15, and 16, was an- nounced yesterday by Dr. F. G. Novy, chairman of the executive commit- tee of the medical school. Dr. Novy pointed out that the Na- tional Academy is the foremost asso- ciation of its kind in the United States, and declared that the Univer- sity will be highly honored by the convention here this year. To Hold Five Sessions The convention, according to the announcement, will hold five scien- tific sessions in Lydia Mendelssohn theatre, to which the public is in- vited. Outstanding among the lec- tures will be that delivered Monday evening on "A Geographic Study of Cosmic Rays" by Arthur Holly Compton, of the University of Chi- cago, who has been the recipient of the Nobel Prize. Membership in the Academy num- bers about 250 and is divided into 11 sections. These sections represent the following scientific fields: Mathema- tics, Astronomy, Physics, Engineering, Chemistry, Geology and Paleontol- ogy,' Botany, Zoology and Anatomy, Physiology and Biochemistry, Pathol- ogy, and Anthopology and Psychol- ogy. First Time Here The Academy meets twice annual- ly. Every April it convenes in Wash- ington, D. C., and every fall it meets at some University. Some of the schools at which it has met in recent years are Yale, Princeton, and the Universities of California, Wisconsin, and Illinois. The convention here next week will be the first that it has held in Ann Arbor. The Academy was founded by Act of Congress in 1863. Joseph. Henry, who was at that time Secretary of the Smithsonian Institute and the nation's foremost physicist and also a close friend of President Lincoln, was instrumental, with the Presi-; dent, in causing Congress to pass the bill creating the organization. The present president of the Acad- emy, William Wallace Campbell, graduated from the University of Michigan in 1887. He is the Emeritus President of the University of Cali- forma and the Emeritus Director of the Lick Observatory. Four Michigan Members Scientists are elected to member- ship in the Academy nation by a highly complicated system of ballot- ing and membership is generally held1 among scientists to be one of the: highest honors that can be conferredE in the United States. The University of Michigan is represented in the Academy by Professors Heber D. Curtis, of the department of astron- omy, and director of the Detroit Ob- servatory; Walter B. Pillsbury, of the psychology department; Moses Gom- berg, of the chemistry department;l and Frederick G. Novy, chairmani of the executive committee of the medical school. 1 medical school..._ Tickets Split As Engineer Seniors Elect (antrill Noses Out Others By Small Margin; Junior Nominee Is Dalsinier Hint Republi Subsidized Daily Senior engineers waged a' closely contested battle in their class elec- tions yesterday, which resulted in a split of both party tickets. The mar- gins by which the candidates won were closer than in any other elec- tion so far this year. Cecil Cantrill will head the sen- for engineers this year as a result of having nosed out two other candi- dates, Robert Hayes and Harold Hessler, by a small margin. The vote was 74, 69 and 62, respectively, Earl Briggs ran a poor fourth, polling only eight votes. For the office of vice-presidency Jerry Gruitch polled a total of 90 votes while his two opponents, E. J. Carr and Harvey Bauss, received 80 and 43 respectively. Richard F. Becker polled the high- est number of votes during the day, defeating his opponent, Emmerson Reid, 128 to 84. Elgin 0. Marshall also ran up a substantial lead when he defeated Erwin Boyton and Ala- stair Mitchell in a final vote of 113, 93 and 12. Duane Erikson defeated Mathias Matzek for the office of honor com- mitteeman by a vote of 123 to 75, and Harold Toro was elected engineering councilman when he defeated James Smith and James Creagan. The vote for the three candidates respectively was 115, 54 and 33. Junior engineers are beginning their campaign for the election to be held at 10 a. m. in room 348 West Engineering -building Tursday, Nov. 10.

Mob Invades Publi Plant, Demands I Of A Practical J Presidential Poll To Protest Straw ote ra Socialists Storm Ut Campbell Says Lecturer Is Becomini Constantly More Subjective William Butler Yeats is tending more and more to draw away from the objective realism that is growing in importance in the Irish theatre, said Prof. O. J. Campbell of the Eng- lish department in an interview yes- terday. Mr. Yeats, who will speak in Hill Auditorium Nov. 10 under the aus- pices of the Oratorical Association, was a prime figure in the Irish Ren- aissance of Literature at the time of its origin about 1890, and has con- tinued ever since in the midst of Irish literary activity. The modern exponents of Irish drama, explained Professor Camp- bell, have sought more and more to portray the objective, common, every- day incidents of human life. They have lifted realism to a place of prime importance in Irish letters. Mr. Yeats, on the other hand, has be- come more and more subjective, and has attempted to establish a circle of theatre-goers who will enjoy an I University, Other Institutions Begi11 Encyclopedia Of State ing Cohen, who had organized them at Natural Science Auditorium after a lecture given by Fenner Brockway, member of the British Independent Labor Party, to act as spokesman. Cohen . charged that Inglis had voted illegally in the Daily-Union poll, and demanded that The Daily, which, he charged, had knowingly covered up the fact, publish a com- plete retraction on the front page. Gilbreth flatly refused to consider the program. "Won't Leave Office" "We won't leave this office, and The Daily won't go to press until you agree to publish an article as long, in the same position, and with the same size headline as the one that announced the results of the vote." Kuhne, who branded statements in The Daily to the effect that the poll had been conducted without any charges of dishonesty as "lies," asked Gilbreth "how much the Republicans paid him" to swing the vote for Hoo- ver. Gilbreth explained to the mem- bers of the crowd that Inglis had cast several ballots illegally in a practical joking attempt to prove that he could evade the vigilance of Daily and Union staff members posted to conduct the poll. He declared that Inglis had immediately informed him of the fraudulent' ballots, which were deducted from the total before publication. Draws Deadline Shortly after his arrival in the of- fice, Gilbreth, in response to a threat from Kuhne that the mob would for- cibly prevent The Daily from going to press, indicated a dead-line across the editorial room and ordered mem- bers of the mob to stay on their side. They did. Little organization was evident in the conduct of the demonstration, few besides Cohen and Kuhne being sufficiently informed on the subject to voice their demands coherently. While the majority of those present lolled about on benches and chairs, occasionally crying, "Isn't this a stu- dent newspaper?" the leaders hurled threats and insults at members of The Daily -staff. Cohen Organized Mob A member of the Michigan Social- ist Club told The Daily that when the members of the mob were organ- ized in Natural Science Auditorium, Cohen had promised them "that there wouldn't be any Socialist Club politics at the demonstration."
