fAGE SIX THE M I ICHIGAN DAILY Labor Proposes Work Insurance For Every State Unemployment Relief Is Proposed By American Federation Of Labor 'Paid ByEmployers' Legislation By Congress And State Governments Necessary For Plan CINCINNATI, O., Nov. 21.-(,)-In an epochal step the American Fed- eration of Labor's executive com- mittee today submitted a plan of compulsory unemployment insurance, proposing it be adopted by every state, paid for by empoyers and ad- ministered by a state commission. The benefits would not be denied to those out of work because of a trade dispute, or if nonmember- ship in a labor union was a condition of employment.nn Recognizing that conditions vary in different states, the plan recom- mendsenactment of a federal law to supplement state legislation. The insurance plan was contain- ed in the report of the executive council to the federation's fifty-sec- ond annual convention, which open- ed today. The report, covering a wide range of subjects, also express- ed opposition to a sales tax, urged a seven-point economic program by the government to secure a more equitable distribution of income, ad- vocated a fight for restoration of former wage scales of government employes, asked modification of the Volstead act and advocated action against extended use of convict labor and a strong stand to secure enact- ment of the child labor amendment. On modification, the report said indications are that action to legal- ize real beer will be taken at the short session of congress convening Dec. 5. The report says there "is no gen- eral movement to increase wages," and adds that "if capitalism is to continue it must pay the price of economic security for the produc- ers." A system for supplying workers with information on jobs for which they are fitted is recommended. The report proposed a "job market" through state employment services under federal co-ordination. Reviewing the last year, the re- port pointed to the enactment of the Norris-Laguardia anti-injunction law as the "outstanding achievement of the A. F. L. during the last session of congress."

All sorts of Smiths, coming from such distant placesaas Massachusetts and New York and Iowa and Oklahoma; and they have it over the Millers, in sec- ond place, by the good, substantial total of 41. There are, in other words, 77 Smiths and 36 Millers at- tending the University, if the 1932 Student Directory is as accurate as it should be. The Smiths are a varied lot. There are the normal Josephs and Roberts and Williams and Marys and Mar- garets. But not all Smiths are just every day Smiths with common Christian names. Smiths like dis- tinction too, and some of their first names prove it. There is Ernestine for instance. Or do you prefer Har- ter? And what of the highly eup- honic Lenoir? Then there are two Ione Smiths. There is even a Hula Smith, but that's nothing-wonder of all this world's wonders: there is not one John Smith in the entire 77. I The University authorities sihotid look into such a situation. As for the Millers not much can be said. They,.do not give the Smiths anything like a fight, and they are themselves closely pressed by the: Johnsons, Browns, and Andersons. The Millers are the great disappoint- ment of the 1932 Student Directory.I Not only in lack of numbers do they disappoint, but also in first names. For there is not a genuinely distinc- tive first name among all Michigan's Millers. The Millers are certainly nothing to write about. In third place are the 33 Johnsons, only three jumps behind the Mil- lers. The Browns follow with 31. And then, in fifth place, comes the real' surprise, the Andersons. Surely- no one ever thought the Andersons would be up there in fifth place, with 30 of their clan in the University. Yet there they are, but six behind the Millers. It shows what real ef- fort can do. t rj e e on RJ s! DENVER, Colo, Nov. 21.-Those who tread the paths of science must - Ibe wary.

Duggan, di- rector of the Institute of Interna- tional Education, at a meeting in Town Hall, New York City, accord- ing. to an article in the New York Times. Criticizes U. S. Attitude Referring specifically to the recent ruling barring alien students from accepting jobs for pay in this coun- try and the ruling permitting stu- dents to remain only 60 days before their passports expire, Dr. Duggan said that the United States has made the foreign student "an object of suspicion and distrust from the very beginning of his preparation to come here." "The difference in attitude of the United States Government and of European governments to foreign students is to the discredit of the United States," he said. "The aver- age American consul, instead of ex- pressing his pleasure when a foreign student applies for a visa, as the average foreign consul does to the American student going abroad, puts him through a quiz about himself, his family, his finances, his pu'rposes in going to the United States, which in some instances is little less than scandalous." "Fundamental Question" He told of an Italian scholar, the winner of an American fellowship, who was forced to prove to American authorities at Naples that he could read and write. Dr. Duggan conclud- ed by suggesting that the supervi- sion of foreign students be trans- ferred to the Office of Education in the Department of the Interior, for "what we are discussing today is not a labor problem but a fundamental question of international relations."

FERRIS This fellow Denver M. Wright, St. Louis manufacturer, is going to have his lion hunt after all, no matter what newspapermen, deputy sheriffs, and common citizens of Missouri have to say. Lion hunting, Mr. Wright believes, ought to be good funs, even if the lions are little, tame and entirely unsuspecting fellows. That appears to be the only deduc- tion from the news that Mr. Wright yesterday entered Popular Bluff, Mo., with two lion cubs, announced he was "going hunting," and left for an un- known destination. Decorous Society Member Lion hunting has occupied the at- tention of Mr. Wright and Mr. Wright, along with his lions, have occupied the attention of staid Mis- sourians for over a month now. Mr. Wright is a decorous member of St. Louis society, a fairly well-known manufacturer, a member of the St. Louis School Board, and was once the police commissioner of Brent- wood, St. Louis suburb. Until five weeks ago, Mr. Wright's life was nor- mal, happy and friendly. He was a good citizen. Then something happened. Mr. Wright knew that Missouri had many wild acres, but that nobody had ever shot a real, honest-to-goodness, live lion in all those acres. Something had to be done about it, and Mr. Wright, purchasing two lionesses from a stranded circus, started out to do it. "You can't hunt' big game in Missouri, so I decided to supply my own quarry," said Mr. Wright. "Just sort of bringing Africa to the United States." No Lions Wanted The good, law-abiding folk of Mis- souri felt that Africa was a nice placej to read about, and lions might pos- sibly make charming playmates upon rare occasions, but they were cer- tain that southern Missouri, "by heck," didn't want either Africa or lions. They organized against Mr. Wright and he was chased from one Missouri town to another, always looking for a place to release those lions. Finally he let them out of their cage on an island in the Mississippi River. Then he went to the main-, land to eat. When he got back the two lions had been killed by a deputy sheriff who simply did not under- stand the adventurous spirit tugging at Mr. Wrights heart. Well, it appears that Mr. Wright and two lion cubs are roaming about southern Missouri again. Regardless of what the people of Missouri have to think and say, Mr. Wright is go- ing to kill that lion. BAD SEASON FOR BREADON ST. LOUIS - (P)-The 1932 season, which saw the St. Louis Cardinals slide from the top of the heap well down into the second division, was the club's most disappointing year since Sam Breadon gained control of the organization. dates seeking recounts must deposit ' $5 for each precinct which is to be counted for the second time. The deposits are returned to candidates if results of the election are changed. The first recount petition involv- ing a state office was filed by Bur- nett J. Abbott of Saginaw, Demo- cratic candidate for secretary of state, who, on unofficial returns is trailing Secretary of State Frank D. Fitzgerald by approximately 3,500 votes. Anticipating the filing of a recount petition by Mr. Abbott, Mr. Fitzger- ald, in order to protect his lead, ask- ed for recounts in 749 precincts. These petitions involve Wayne, Oak- land, Macomb, Genesee, Kent, Goge- bic, Gratiot, Kalamazoo and Muske- gon counties. Many of the other recount peti- tions were filed by candidates who are ahead on unofficial returns, in or- der to protect their apparent victor- ies. Charles Bowles, candidate for Con- gress in the 15th Congressional dis- trict, requested a recount. Other re- count petitions were filed by: Rep. Dana H. Hinkley and Eugene Brown, candidates for state repre- sentative in Mackinac and Emmet counties. Rep. Walter F. Jackson and Law- rence O'Neill, candidates for the same office, in Lake and Mecosta counties. 24 candidates for various county offices. Public School Sporting Events May Be Free ST. LOUIS, Nov. 19.j-(/P)-A plan whereby competitive interscholastic athletics, like physical education, would be an integral part of the St. Louis public schools' program is be- ing considered by the board of educa- tion. Should the system be adopted, a director of athletics would assume centralized control of competitive sports, and the usual practice of sup- porting sports events through sales of admissions would be discarded. Dr. David C. Todd, a member of the education board, stands sponsor for the proposed change, contending that if interscholastic athletics are to be continued at all, "adequate pro- vision for their organization, develop- ment and support" should be made. Union Offers Free Thanksgiving Meal To Lucky Dancers A free Thanksgiving dinner will be given the couple holding the lucky ticket at the Union's special Thanks- giving dance tomorrow night, accord- ing to an announcement by John W. Lederle, president of the Union. The ball room will be decorated to present a Thanksgiving atmosphere, with a log fire burning in the mas- sive fireplace at the end of the floor, Lederle said. The dean of women's office has granted 1 o'clock permission for women attending the dance, he add- ed. The Thanksgiving dinner prize will take the place of the turkeys that have been raffled in the past. Belford Forest, English playwright, will read his newest play at the Uni- versity of North Carolina this fall. ea at e sars That wasn't all. After a little while another car stopped, and then an- other, until the student, in a panic, broke into a run and retreated to the astronomical observatory, where peo- ple understood him.
