According to Prof. Kimball Young, r
of them made homes on marginal
lands, where there were many vacant
houses. For many, it was a return to
the places they left during the in-
dustrial boom starting with the war."
O'Brien deplored the economic sit-
uation that forced families to live in
abandoned houses or to erect hur-
riedly some type of rough shelter. In
Oklahoma, he said, the dugouts used
by pioneer settlers are again appear-
ing.
The structures and power and ma-
chinery divisions of the American So-
ciety of agricultural Engineers met
here today to discuss technical prob-
lems. O'Brien and other speakers
urged co-operation between engi-
neers, lumber companies and other
groups in aiding the construction of
adequate and economical homes.
A member of the Ohio State Uni-
versity faculty, O'Brien said an-
other type of "back-to-the-land"
movement has been under way, al-
most unnoticed, for 15 years. This
is the tendency of city persons, in-
cluding laborers as well as "white
collar" workers, to move their homes
to small tracts of land within com-
muting distance of metropolitan cen-
ters.
Such families, he asserted, are no
better prepared t h a n apartment
dwellers during times of economic
stress.
Scout Leaders
Organize New
Type Of Troop
Hikes and weekly meetings will
constitute the fall program of a new
Boy Scout troop which will hold its
first meeting at 7:30 p. m. tomorrow
in Lane Hall.
Wallace F. Watt, Boy Scout execu-
tive in Ann Arbor, will be present
and will attempt to acquaint the
boys with their student leaders and
the advisory committee. Although
,here are other Scout troops in the
,ity, this troop which is being spon-
sored by the Student Christian Asso-
ciation is the first one in which only
students and faculty will take an ac-
tive part.
The advisory committee is com-
posed of three men from the Univer-
sity, Mr. Herbert P. Wagner, chief
accountant, Prof. Jackson A. Shar-
man of the education school, and Dr.
Frank Lynam of the Health Service.
The student leaders are all Eagle
Scouts and have had experience in
Scout work and management of boys.
The students who will direct the
activities of the new troop are Bruce
Klein, '35E, Carl J. Holcomb, '34F&C,
James Merry, '36, and Willard Hilde-
brand, '35.

The drive for the Speakership nomination is reaching a feverish
pitch as Democrats ponder the organization of the House in the new
Congress. Rep Henry T. Rainey (below), floor leader, and Rep. John
E. Rankin (upper left), chairman of the veterans' committee, are al-
ready in the field, but formal announcement in behalf of Rep. John
McDuffie (upper right), the party whip, is soon expected by his friends.
