VOL. XVIL No 17 ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 13, 1933 PRICE FIVE CENTS T hree Nations Join In Protest AgaiinstHitler ..g Spain, Great Britain, And The Netherlands P l a n Diplomatic Moves German Relations Declared At Stake Hull's Note May Go To Chancellor Friday; No Mention In Press BERLIN, Oct. 12..-(P)- T h r e e other countries today joined the Uni- ted States, 27 of whose nationals have gone on record in affidavits, in expressing deep concern over attacks. during recent months on their coun- trymen by German citizens-in a number of cases storm troopers. Simultaneous with receipt by the American embassy of instructions from Secretary of State Cordell Hull to inquire as to what steps were be- ing taken toward prosecution of the Germans, it was learned the Dutch legation and the British and Span- ish embassies had received similar messages.' All made plain future relations with Germany may hinge on the out-; come. While an appointment for Wil- liam E. Dodd, the American ambas- sador, to present Mr. Hull's note to the German government has not; been definitely scheduled, it was inti- mated the meeting likely would be Friday. The German press has not1 mentioned Mr. Hull's message. , Earlier representations have been; made by Switzerland, Poland, Rus-a sia, and Czechoslovakia. All these and the four latest complaints ap- peared to hinge on a contention that outside of an apology by the foreign1 ofice, little else has been done. The records of the affidavits filed by the 27 Americans, all covering cases since April 3, shows that only two persons have been taken into custody, one of them being fined 50 marks (about $17.50). No informa- tion could be obtained as to when the other German, a storm trooper accused of assaulting Dr. Daniel Mulvihill, of Danbury, Conn., con- nected with the Long Island Medical College, would be tried. The 50-mark fine was assessed against Oskar Joost, who assaulted Julian Fuhs, a New York musician, March 12. At his trial the judge brought out that, the defendant wasR a German Aryan Nazi and that Fuhs was an American Jew. Dr. Mulvihill was assaulted last August 17, like most of the others be- cause he did not salute a parade int Nazi fashion - an upraised arm. Latin America Society HoldsI Initial Meeting The first meeting of the Sociedadl Latina Americana was'held last night at the Union in commemoration of Columbus Day. Prof. Arthur S. Ai-e ton of the history department re-r viewed the much discussed controver- sy as to which town Columbus lived in. The French, Armenians, Italians, Portuguese, and the Spanish all lay claim to Columbus but according to latest historical research which Pro- fessor- Aiton revealed in his speech Columbus was a native of Genoa.- Freshman Luncheon Club To Be Continued Again This Semester Dean Bursley's Freshman Lunch- eon Club.is to be continued through- out the'current year. Started three years ago when de- ferred rushing kept first-year out of fraternities for the fall semester, this unique organization which the Dean of Men established has proved too invaluable to be discontinued. Now, at.,the request of those who have benefitted from the gatherings in the past, representative students in the class of '37 are to be given a similar opportunity to become ac- quainted with each other and with leading members of the senior class.' The club, to be composed of two groups, will contain approximately 200 men. Organized under the direc- tion of senior students, the club will probably meet twice a week at the Union for luncheon, informalatalks, and various forms of entertainment. This year the two groups are to be organized under the direction of Gil- bert E. Bursley, '34, president of the Undergraduate Council, a n d James Cristy, '34,'president of Mich- igamua. Bursley will select ten other seniors f r o m the Undergraduate Council and Druids and Cristy will pick ten members of Michigamua to aid in getting together the first-year men. Each of the seniors thus selected will choose four freshmen to be in- vited to join the club and these fresh- men, in turn, will be allowed to select another member of the class of '37, for participation in the activities on the group. In this manner approxi- mately 200 first-year men will be given an opportunity to join. In past seasons, in order to keep the membership of the club from be- ing restricted to fraternity men, at least two of the four men selected by each senior were non-fraternity men. Complete plans have not been formulated for this year but in all probability some measure similar to this will be enacted. Selling Of Beer To Be Sanctioned On Wisconsin Campus MADISON, Wis., Oct. 12.-(Spe- cial) -Regents of the University of Wisconsin voted to permit the sale of beer in the Wisconsin Union, stu- dents club. The vote places Wiscon- sin along with Columbia, Dartmouth, Princeton, Brown, and other leading colleges which allow the sale of beer on University property. Before prohibition, beer was not sold on the campus at Wisconsin, and with the passage of the national beer act, the past restriction against the beverage came into effect. There was considerable protest against the law, and at first dry regents were against any change. One of the regents, who is known personally as a dry, remarked that the beer was being sold in the Union because "it isn't intoxicating."

Wie mer Held At Jail Until Trial Of Accomplice Will Be Material Witness Against Dunn; Trial At End Of Term Docket Sentenced Wednesday to life im- prisonment at solitary confinement and h a r d labor, George Wiemer, slayer of John Reinhart, aged re- cluse, will be held in the County Jail here until the trial of Brent H. Dunn, his accomplice, where he will be used as a material witness. Dunn, who entered a plea of not guilty, is being held without bond un- til his trial, which is listed on the. bottom of the present term docket. Both men admitted that they in- tended to rob Reinhart, but each ac- cuses the other of applying the hand- kerchief which caused the aged man to die of suffocation. Wiemer, completely b r o k e n in spirit, freely confessed his guilt and pled guilty in Circuit Court Wed- nesday, but Dunn, self composed and smiling, entered a plea of not guilty. Dunn will be defended by his attor- ney, George Meader.' Funeral services for the murdered man were held at 3 p. m. yesterday at the Muehlig funeral chapel. Bu- rial took place in Forest Hills ceme- tery. Reinhart had been a residentof this city for almost 70 years. Dean Bursley, B. B. Kelley To Be At Meetings Michigan's system of fraternity auditing and accounting will come under scrutiny in Chicago this week- end when Joseph A. Bursley, dean of students, will explain the workings of the system to members of the Na- tional Interfraternity Conference, which will hold its sessions there to- day and tomorrow. Bethel B. Kelley, '34, president of the Interfraternity Council is attend- ing the Undergraduate Council meet- ing of the same conference and is ex- pecting to explain how the system works to the leading fraternity men who will gather from all parts of the United States and Canada for the sessions. Before he left yesterday, Mr. Burs- ley stated that he believed that the plan now in operation here is an ex- cellent one and one which will help fraternities greatly, only hindered by the lack of adequate machinery for enforcing and managing the compli- cated system of accounts. Big Business Hurls Attack On Blue Eagle Legal Power Of Johnson, Strength Of NRA Are Tested By Steel, Coal Steel Will Accept 'Check-Off' System Arbitration E f fo r t s Are Prompted -By President, Operators Announce WASHINGTON, Oct. 12. -(O)-- Challenges to the authority of the NRA today were hurled at that or- ganization from three directions, causing officials ljurriedly, to map plans for meeting them. Several coal operators of western Kentucky refused a summons by the national labor board to attend an ar- bitration hearing on the union issue. The Weirton Steel Co., Weirton, W. Va., rejected a proposal by the same board that settlement of the strike at its plant be left to the board's conciliation. Two New Rochelle, N. Y., employ- ers who had been ordered by admin- istrator Hugh S. Johnson to take down their blue eagles for reported violation of the Presidential reem- ployment agreement refused to do so. Officials were heartened late to- day when steel manufacturers oper- ating their own coal mines in the western PMnnsylvani4 mine area notified President Roosevelt of a qualified acceptance of the "check- off" system. This method, under which operators deduct union dues from miners' pay envelopes, has been a main point of controversy in the strike situation. Senator Wagner, 1 a b o r board chairman, today quickly summoned a meeting to decide upon procedure in the Kentucky and West Virginia situations. The board has little legal power but its arbitration efforts are .made-a~uderAhe'- autritymok t1e President.

Ring, head of a nudist colony that was raided last Labor Day, would go on trial Oct. 23 on a charge of inde- cent exposure. Ring and his wife, who also faces a charge of indecent exposure, de- clined to sign an agreement tender- ed by Prosecutor Welborne S. Luna to discontinue the nudist camp in Allegan county. Luna had offered to ask for a dismissal of the charges if the agreement was signed. In turn, the Prosecutor reclined to agree to a stipulation tendered by the Rings that they had not dis- obeyed any law and that they would not in the future. That was where the case stood to- night. Ring, who is a dancing instructor in Kalamazoo, had said before the prosecutor offered to drop the charges, in order to establish the right of nudists to practice "sun bathing" in the privacy of their own camps. He said after the prosecutor's of- fer was made that he did not wish to be put in the light of having been driven out of Allegan county. Prosecutor Luna explained that he was willing to drop the case to save Allegan county the expense of trial and possible appeals.

His duties in China were not al- ways those of an ecclesiastical na- ture. In 1927 he was asked to me- diate between rival factions of Chi- nese war-lords. Settling differences between Chinese war-lords, a polite name for bandits, is not the easiest task that might be imagined, but By PAUL J. ELLIOTT The Rev. Merle H. Anderson, pas- tor of the First Presbyterian Church of Ann Arbor, last night indicated that it was quite possible that he would accept the call of the North Presbyterian Church in Manhattan to become its pastor. "It is quite an, opportunity," he said, "and I think it right that I should accept." How- ever, Dr. Anderson reserved his defi- nite announcement of acceptance until a completion of arrangements was made with the committee of the pecially as it was well known that the committee had definitely voted to consider only young men. The pastorate of the North Church has been vacant since the first of the year, and during that time the Committee had investigated a large number of ministers, among them some of the leading men of the coun- try. They had not been able to make a choice, or to find the man they wanted. The three Sundays spent in the church by Dr. Anderson in July turned their attention in his direc-
