Relief Administrator Says
$83,956,225 Spent For
Aid Since Jan. 1, 1933
DETROIT, Jan. 21.- (P) - Dr. Wil-
liam Haber, state relief administrator,
revealed today that a total of $83,-
956,225 has been spent by the state
emergency relief commission from the
time of the inception of the state
emergency welfare commission on
July 7, 1933, to Jan. 1, this year.
Of this sum, $57,919,387, was pro-
vided by the Federal government;
$17,022,277, by the state from the sales
tax and $9,014,560, by local govern-
ments.
Released By Haber
These figures were released by Dr.
Haber along with the commission's
conclusions and recommendations
concerning the future outlook for re-
lief and steps to be taken to meet
problems of economic distress.
Commission members are William
J. Norton, chairman, of Detroit and
John Bender, of Grand Rapids. A
third member, Louis J. Nims of Bay
City, resigned several weeks ago.
Among the principal recommenda-
tions were: A system of straight pen-
sions for the genuinely unemployable;
the present appropriation for emer-
gency relief, which expires in July,
should, be extended at least another
year; provision should be made that
relief should be administered on a
non-partisan basis with sufficient pro-
vision for state-wide standards and
co-ordination so that Federal, state
and local governments may be main-
tained; provision should be made for a
civil service to insure non-political
relief administration; a contributory
system of unemployment insurance
would be superior to the present pro-
ceudre; development of a comprehen-
sive program of emergency employ-
ment to be made available for un-
employed not likely to find work in in-
dustry because of age, etc.
Fall Into 3 Groups
"The 200,000 families on relief in
Michigan," the commission reported,
"fall into three main groups which
will require a specific type of relief
provision as a permanent program
takes form. P'robably 60 to 65 per cent
of the relief load includes able-bodied
persons who have no problem except
unemployment.
"The second group contains about
20 per cent of the relief rolls. These
are persons who have ability to work
but arc not likely to find jobs in a
high-speed competitive industry. The
third class represents the genuinely
unemployables."
The commission said there are 50,-
000 unemployable persons in the 200,-
000 families on relief in the state, add-
ing that "for these, some form of re-
lief will have to be provided."

Sale Of 'Ensian At New
Price To Be Held Today
The first campus sale of the
1935 Michiganensian at the new
price of $4.50 will take place at
va rious points on the campus
today. The same plan for down-
payments of $1 as was used be-
fore vacation will be used and only
the third payment will be in-
creased.
Robert J. Henoch, '35, business
manager, announced at the same
time that the deadline for senior
pictures will be this Saturday and
no further extensions can be made.
Organizations should sign page
contracts and make appointments
for group pictures before the end
of the semester, he said.
Students who made the down-
payment on their year-book before
vacation but who have not yet
paid the second and third install-
ments will have to make up the
present price of $4.50, Henoch said.j

Optional ROTC
Favored By OSU
Student Senate
Opinion Opposes Decision
Of University Board Of
Trustees
(By Big Ten Press Service)
COLUMBUS, Ohio, Jan. 21. - The
student senate at Ohio State Univer-
sity found itself in an embarrassing
position recently when results of a
questionnaire of the National Student
Federation of America taken recently
revealed "surprising" opinions on con-
troversial issues.
The greatest surprise came when
it was announced that 14 senators
voted for optional military training.
Four upheld compulsory drill, and
two did not express themselves.
Opposes University Ruling
This stand on the military drill
question directly opposes the ruling
of the Board of Trustees which up-
held President George W. Rightmire
last February in suspending seven
"conscientious objectors' from the
University for not taking military
training. For this reason many sen-
ators became jittery!and demanded
that the report be silenced.
Richard E. Vance, president of the
senate, immediately asked for the
suppression of the opinion as revealed
in the answers to the questionnaire,
and ruled that, the rsults announced
were not to be considered student
senate opinion.
Prepare Statement
In the printed statement prepared
and distributed by Virgil M. Fogle,
secretary of the senate, the following
caption appeared on this sheet show-
ing the results of the questionnaire:
"Results of the N.S.F.A. Question-
naire, the Student Senate of Ohio
State University, Number Voting, 20."
During the confusion following the
reading of the report the senate voted
to request campus publications to
withhold the results until later.
Charles E. Egger, senator and editor
of the Ohio State Lantern, replied
that the Lantern would not comply
with the request. "The students on the
campus are entitled to know what
the senate does at its meetings," he
said. Other results were:
"Should undergraduate publications
be subject to the censorship of the
student governing body?" 12 no, 8 yes.
"Is the program of national admin-
istration for increasing the armed
forces of the country a safe and rea-
sonable course to follow?" 15 yes, 3 no,
and 2 undecided.
TO EXHIBIT RARE BIRDS
An exhibit of rare birds, the first
of its kind to be erected in Michigan,
showing the mounted bird and its eggs
in the natural surroundings, is being
displayed in the University Museums,
Miss Crystal Thompson, director of
visual education department, an-
nounced yesterday.
The exhibit includes the gallinule,
the pintail duck, and coot. The birds
were prepared by Taxidermist James
Wood. The exhibit, on the second floor
of the Museums, is termed by Norman
Wood, curator-emeritus of the Zool-
ogy Museum bird division, "unusual
and excellent."
