that in the future there will be a
disciplinary board of the relief com-
mission, which will eliminate all un-
deserving cases from the rolls. He
also contends that the FERA will
become a permanent -organization,
but that the set-up of the relief will
be drastically changed within the next
five years. He predicted that the:
five public welfare commissions,
which now operate in the county, will
be incorporated into one centralized
committee.
According to DeRyke, the fact that
the present Democratic state govern-
ment will be taken over in January
by the Republicans, will not affect the
FERA. Relief work will be carried
on as usual, he said, under the terms
of the state law, and the only pos-
sible changes that the new govern-
ment will make will be those of ad-
ministration.
Since nearly all of the work proj-
ects carried on by the FERA, the al-
teration of Ann Arbor High School,
and the erection of the county jail,
will be completed soon, a new pro-
gram of relief work is being prepared
for the winter. The tentative pro-
gram is that for every $1,000 spent
by the county for relief work, the
federal government will contribute
$1,000.
In commenting as to whether or
not the FERA is helping individuals
who are not absolutely destitute, De-
Ryke said that he believed that "less'
than 10 per cent of the cases have
misrepresented their situations and
thereby obtained undeserved aid."

As an important supplement to
the autograph exhibit now on display
in the corridor cases of the main li-

This case, presented to the Univer-

rare autographs of Napoleon, and his'

course, are those of the Emperor, but

"THE mwSTAGE
Work Of Local Artists
Is Exhibited In Detroit,
Russell McCracken's production of
"The Adventures of Tom Sawyer"
opened to an enthusiastic child au-
dience yesterday in the Lydia Men-
delssohn Theatre.
This is the first production of the
year by the Children's Theatre, which
was organized just a year ago.
The play, an adaption from the
immortal novel by Mark Twain, was
writen by Mr. McCracken.
One of the major factors contrib-
uting to the ardent reception of the
production is the picturesque scenery
designed by Oren Parker. Both in set
design and acting the essential qual-

Edward Ward, 22 years old, was
sentenced to serve from 10 to 20 years

George W. Sample yesterday, after
admitting his guilt Thursday in at-

local grocer.

ities have been extracted and exag-
gerated to appeal to the childish
imagination. In most of the scenes,
particularly the cemetery episode, an
ideal combination of set design, light-
ing, and acting produce a reaction
in the juvenile audience that is thrill-
ing to witness.
It is a relief to attend a produc-
tion of a play that does not bore its
pseudo-sophisticated audience.
Russell McCracken organized the
Children's Theatre last year. All the
shows he produced then were success-
ful and the production of "Tom Saw-
yer" seems to promise another out-
standing season.

the non-partisanship should work
both ways, but that it could not do
so as long as "the operator of the
clearing house through which all
jobs are filled" is the postmaster-gen-
eral as well as the chairman of the
Democratic national committee.
The senator quoted a section of the
criminal code declaring it unlawful
for any officer or employe of the gov-
ernment to directly or indirectly
"solicit, receive, or be in any manner:
concerned in soliciting or receiving"
any contributions for political pur-
poses from any other federal office
holder."
As a warning to his "Democratic
friends," Vandenberg said it was a
crime for any office holder to "con-
tribute one penny toward that fund
so long as Farley is soliciting or re-
ceiving the funds."

Besides the debt holiday bill, the
measures, many of them intended to

State Bar of Louisiana and to limit
the power of the Bar Association; to
add teeth to the income tax laws; to
eliminate off-year municipal elec-
tions; to regulate muncipal police and
fire departments; to create a State

Campus Critic Muzzled
A sophomore's criticism of the
antics of Senator Long in dubbing
Abe Mickal, star football player, a
"State Senator," was eliminated from
today's issue of the Reveille, Louisiana
State University's student paper, as
it was about to roll from the press
last night.
A "stop the press" order was re-
to a large extent. Throughout a col-
lege career 24 offices will be available
to a member of any class. Hence, a
block of fraternities will be unable to
exist in a large enough body to satisfy
all. The organized groups will be non-
existent because there will be no rea-
son for their existence.
2. Illegal voting is a direct result of
the present system of caucusing.
Therefore it is a logical conclusion
that this evil will be likewise elim-
inated.
3. The reduction in the number of
offices will also insure that the hold-
ers of them will be more capable per-
sons. This will be made more certain
because of the fact that they will as-
sume a new importance. No longer will
long lists of office-holders minimize
the honor to be attached to them.
It is to be remembered that this
plan will affect only literary college
elections. The membership of dance
committees, however, should be reg-
ulated more closely. This latter;move
will affect in some measure other
colleges. -Frederick A. Mitchell.
