Cdok, former'New York City lawyer and a graduate of, the ?law school, here, whose'enormous. gifts are responsible' for the law building "" ral Speaking in the fourth presenta- Lion of the Oratorical Association lecture series, Mr. Durant is expected to present a colorful exposition of his views regarding America today, it was learned yesterday from the as- sociation. Will Durant first became promi- nent for his work when teaching at Columbia University. A lecturer of wide experience, he broke all records of the . Bureau of Lectures of the Board of Education of New York in 1917; wlen he gave a series of 20 addresses which drew capacity au- diences of 1,300 to each lecture throughout the course. He has given several. complete courses for the Kansas City University exteision di- vision; his audiences there in 1920 grew from, 450 at the first lecture to 850 at the fourth. In 1923 he gave 40. addresses in 35 days in Kansas City, nearly all in the same hall, and drew an average Students Protest Good Will Drive, All Two Of Them By BARTON KANE A mass protest meeting, scheduled to be held in front of Alexander G. Ruthven's office yesterday by the National Student League, "to de- mand immediate relief from the Uni versity, and state funds for the needy' and starving students on the cam- pus," turned out to be only a 'smarty's party" for Leon Gropper and Edward T. Cheyfitz, the twoagi- tators, to which nobody came but several score of curiosity seekers. Mr. Gropper, an assistant in the physics department and on the Uni- versity payroll, who spoke from a chair placed in the hall outside the President's office, had scarcely fin- ished telling his audience that "the Student Good Will Fund is nothing more than an attempt to push the responsibility of the support of the needy students on to the backs of us students who have also been hit by this crisis," when he was informed by three very large custodians that Dr. Ruthven wished to converse with him. Mr. Gropper replied that he would be very glad to talk to the president when he had finished his lecture. However, the catodians seemed to think that the appointment withhDr. Ruthven was more important than the speech, so Mr. Gropper, shouting to the crowd about violations of the right of free speech, was escorted into the president's private office. Several minutes later he appeared with the official sanction for his talk and, morally assisted by Cheyfitz, a junior, againi took his stand on the chair. Following a short address to hecklers, whom he termed "sneaks," he told his audience that he had been called- "impolite" by. Dr. Ruth- kHe then outlined a three-fold plan for student relief: (1) "Demand that the Board of Regents request an appropriation from the. state legislature, which meets today. (2) "All salaries o the staff above $5000 be cut. (3) "An appropriation from the footballfund." . He concluded with the statement that Dr. Ruthven' had refused to petition the I'.cislature for this so -the National 'tudent League would-' send a dle'gation ft"altsing. apanese Fit Chinse Trops PEIPING, Jan. 10.-(P)-A battle between the Japanese ad Chinese armies of possession of Chiumen- kow Pass in the Great Wall of China, one of the important gateways lead- ing from China into the Province of Jehol,. got under way this morning and still was raging this afternoon. - The Japanese advance, . in ; which cavalry, infantry, and artillery par- ticipated, started at dawn. The first contact was with Chinese cavalry. Delayed dispatches from Gen. Ho Chu-Kuo, Chinese commander, said that fighting still was going on late this afternoon. Japanese airplanes were assisting the attackers by bombing the Chi- nese lines. The assault column con- tained troops of the Government of Manchukuo as well as regular Japa- nese. Manchurian headquarters in Pei- ping reported that at 5-p. m. a Chi- nese cavalry brigade still held the southern end of the pass and at that point there had been as yet no con- tact with the Japanese. Chinese officials expected that the full force of the Japanese drive to gain possession of the pass would be felt tomorrow. t eductions nal eco- believes. age 'att( "The Populair of 860.

Two honorary organizations have voted subscriptions to the fund in addition to the amounts to be given by the members individually. Only preliminary reports of prog- ress of the drive were available last night and these showed approximate- ly $110 to have been collected by workers in three districts. No reports from team captains were made yes- terday. "Solicitors are meeting with an en- couraging response in almost every instance," said assistant chairman William Elliot, '33, "but in view of the fact that workers have just be- gun to solicit, reports of their collec- tions have not yet reached headquar- ters. "Workers should inform their team captains daily of contributions col- lected," Elliot continued, "in order that progress of the drive may be re- corded." Fraternity, solicitation will begin today. Several houses have reported blanket assessments and these are expected , to be added to y the can- vassing of workers under the direc- tion of aYmes Inglis, 33.

Ruthven Talks Before Y.M.C.A. Banquet Here Emphasizing the necessity for co- ordination of the intellectual and spiritual factors in a college curri. culum, President Alexander G. Ruth- ven last night outlined a three-point program for the modern educational institution in a speech at the 'annual Founders'. day banquet of the local Y:L MC. A. "The student's mental equipment," Dr. Ruthven said, "should be integ- rated into a personal religion or' phil- osophy, which may be derived from and expressed through practical ex- perience in communal living, religi- ous activity and a mental and spirit- ual adjustment." Dr. Ruthven pointed out that the first point, community living, had been entirely understressed in the past. "A working philosophy of life," he said, "must represent the adjust- ment of the individual to his environ- ment and in man this is a social environment. No single approach tp the- problem of life is adequate. In the past we have stressed training in special skills but have failed to develop -practical experience as the Biasis for co-ordinated thinking on life's essential problems." Sigma Xi To Start Loan Fund For Grad School Postpone Meeting Of Council To T omorrow The Interfraternity C o u n c i l meeting, scheduled for tonight, has been postponed until 7:30 p. m. tomorrow. Postponement was made necessary because of a rul- ing which requires the announce- ment of the meeting to be printed in the Daily Official Bulletin on three consecutive days before it is held, according to Charles Jew- ett, '34, secretary. Backers of the movement to permit freshmen to live in frater- nity houses the second semester are ready to present their argu- ments to the Council, it was learn- ed last night. Indications so far indicate that the new proposal will pass the Council with a consider- 'able margin. If such action is taken, the Senate Committee on Student Affairs will meet within the next week to decide on the question, according to those in contact with officers of that body. Democrats In. Senate Debate' On Relief Bills, Huey Long Reads From Bible In Carrying On Filibuster Against Glass WASHINGTON, Jan. 10.-()- Lines of demarcation between groups that supported Franklin D. Roosevelt opened wide today in debate on the farm relief allotient plan in the House and the Glass banking bill in the Senate. Although it is sponsored by their party, Democrats from the cities joined House Republicans in assail- ing the farm relief measure. Against the wishes of Democratic leaders, amendments adding peanuts and dairy products were tacked onto the bill. Rice was also included in its. scope, although there was no objec- tion to'that from those in charge of the legislation. A motion which would kill the entire bill was pend- ing when the House adjourned. In the Senate, Huey Long carried on a filibuster against the bill of the senior Democrat from Virginia, ob- jecting to its branch banking pro- vision. Reading from the Bible, wav- ing his arms and declaiming drama- tically, the Louisiana "kingfish" di- gressed now and then to lambast the wealthy. He was joined in his opposition to the branch banking provisions by Sen. Bratton-(Dem., N. M.) and Sen. Thomas (Dem., Okla.). As a result, the Senate laid aside the bill late in the day and took up a supply measure. Will Judge E- Its Merits; Should Not I After Large LANSING, Jan. William A.

Cabinet ministers did not. specify which provinces would be affected, but it was understood the action would be taken in Seville and Va- lencia, where sporadic outbreaks were reported late today. Late dispatches said that the ex- tremist hotbeds in Barcelona, Seville, Valencia, and Murcia, apparently had been quieted by extreme ,pre- cautionary measures exercised by government forces. Dispatches from the northern sec- tions of the republic indicated that all was tranquil there. Madrid-so far has not been affected in any respect by demonstrations. Unofficial estimates of the casual- ties in the fighting, which broke out Sunday, placed the dead at 38 and listed 100 as wounded. fTwo Members Named To Student Affairs Committee' New members of the Senate Com-, mittee on Student Affairs, to succeed.

' r DETROIT, Jan. 10.-()-A joint statement of the Michigan Crusaders and the Michigan branch of the Women's Organization for National Prohibition Reform today opposed a resolution now before the United States Senate calling for repeal of the Eighteenth Amendment. In addition to the joint statement, Mrs. Frederick M. Alger, chairman of the Michigan branch of the wom- en's organization, sent a telegram of protest against the resolution to Sen- ators James Couzens and Arthur H. Vandenberg. The telegram read: "The Michigan branch of the Women's Organization for National Prohibition Reform believes it abso- lutely vital to the success of our temperance program that the con- templated bill for repeal, with Fed- eral control, to be ratified by .state legislatures, should be defeated. It is contrary to the platforms of both po- litical parties and in direct opposi- tion to the principles upon which our organization was founded."
