Huey P. Long tonight asserted that the White House had "declared war" on him and that the "lead-off" man had been Hugh S. Johnson, un- der whom the NRA "became such a national scandal that Roosevelt had to let Johnson slide out as the scape- goat." Long made his assertions in a radio address prepared for delivery in an- swer to a speech by Johnson last Monday night. In it the former NRA chief had called the Louisianan and Father Charles E. Coughlin, Detroit priest, the "mad pipers" who were appealing to the "lunatic fringes" of the people., Calling out his own choicest phras- es, Long tonight paid his "respects" not only to Johnson, but to others of his opponents and the New Deal as well. But it was at Johnson that he levelled at the outset. "The late and lamented, the pam- pered ex-crown prince, Gen. Hugh S. Johnson," he said, "one of those satellites loaned by Wall Street to run the government, and, who, at the end of his control over and dismissal from the NRA, pronounced it 'as dead as a dodo,' this Mr. Johnson was apparently selected to make the leadg speech in his White House charge begun last Monday night.

Hoover could not get the Congress to carry out the schemes he wanted to try.

SENATOR HUEY LONG N.SL. Charges Suppression Of FreeSpeech Allege University Refusal To Permit Address Here By JohnStrachey The University was charged with suppression of free speech last night by a National Student League com- mittee following an alleged refusal to grant permission for John Strach- ey, British communist, to speakt March 14 in Hill Auditorium.j The refusal, according to the state-j ment, was in the form of an unsigned, typewritten declaration reading as follows: "The Committee On Lecture Policy is unable to approve the re- quest of the National Student League for a lecture on March 14 in Hill Auditorium. The committee is not convinced of the responsibility of this organization to sponsor public lec- tures in University buildings and therefore refuses to approve its re- quest.", The Strachey committee's state- ment declared that the University's decision nullified "the permission granted on February 16, 1935, for the use of Hill Auditorium by Shirley W. Smith, vice-president and secretary of the University." "The National Student League has completely met the entire financial obligation of the lecture," the state- ment continued.- "If by responsibility is meant lack of organization or character, the claim is unfounded, for the National, Student League has the official recog- nition of the University as a Univer- sity organization." "By such suppression of free speech are the roots of fascism watered and the freedom of education made an empty mockery." No comment was forthcoming from University quarters last night. i , 1 l f l l 1 t} I ' 1 i t GHEVGHELLI, Jugo-Slavia, March Prof. R.

Gerald Ford, '35, star center bn the football team, and president of Delta Kappa Epsilon fraternity, explained the plan which had already been dis- cussed with fraternity leaders at a dinner meeting last week. "The Athletic Association is asking the fraternities to save one job in their kitchen or dining room for an athlete, preferably a freshman," Ford stated. A proposal made by George Dufy, '35, Chi Psi, and manager of the foot- ball team last year, to institute a mass fraternity sing as a substitute for the abolished Swingout, was met with favor by the house leaders. Singleton appointed a committee composed 6f Duffy, Graham Batting, '35, Theta Xi, and George Dillingham, '35, Phi Kappa Sigma, to investigate the possibilities of the sing and to set an approximate date. William Morgan, '35, Psi Upsilon was elected to the executive commit- tee of the Council from the fourth dis- trict. He replaces Lee C. Shaw, '35, Phi Delta Theta, who has withdrawn from the University. Another proposal to augment or .er.;ace the present Interfraternity Buyer's Association with a cooperative service bureau, was referred to a com- mittee for further consideration. The committee appointed by Single- ton is composed of Frederick Jones, '35, Phi Sigma Kappa, George Wil- liams, '36, Sigma Phi, who presented the plan, and Joseph Bailey, '35, Sigma Chi. Dean Edmonson Talks OnState Of YouthToday An indictment on five charges was drawn against America's present treatment of its youth by Dean J. B. Edmonson of the School of Education last night in his radio talk over WJR bioadcast from the campus studios in SMorris all. "America is forcing thousands of its youth to loaf, loiter and roan) with- out aim or purpose," he said. Dean Edmonson in his second charge condemned America's policy of denying thousands of young men and women the opportunity to use their physical energy and restless am- bition in constructive work. "America," he charged, "is blind to the importance of building commu- nity life in terms of the promotion of the welfare of children and young people." Indicting the type of educational tContinued on Page 2 General Johnson Predicts Federal Commerce Control PROVIDENCE, R. I., March 7. - --An ever-widening field of Fed- eral supervision over the nation's commerce sanctioned by the courts - was predicted tonight by Gen. Hugh S. Johnson. Declaring the nation was "sweep- ing like an avalanche" toward a con- dition of economic complexity in which the small business man is being replaced by the great corporation, General Johnson said: "I think the Supreme Court has; seen this clearly and if anybody thinks that these great autocrats of the na- tional breakfast table ought to be freed of any aspect of governmental protection merely because the old- time butcher, baker or candlestick maker was not dangerous enough to the public helplessness to need watch- ing - well he is just living in a medie- val dream and probably thinks that Pretty Boy Floyd, Bonnie Parker and John Dillinger are Friar Tuck, Maid Marian, and Robin Hood. "I am no trust buster but I veritably believe that our public will not con- sent to take its soup out of any one dipper without having a direct say in the matter, and that there is no possible way out of this last and in- evitable coalescence of business in which the public shall not have a part." The former NRA head addressed the Rhode Island Bar Association banquet a few hours before Senator Huey P. Long went on the air in Washington to answer his recent crit- icism Hearst Policy Is Condemned By Journalists A resolution condemning "the cam- paign of William Randolph Hearst and his chain of newspapers to abro- gate the inherent rights of Americans' to think what they wish tq think and! say what they wish to say" was unani- mously passed by Sigma Delta Chi, national professional journalistic fra- ternity, at its initiation banquet last night in the Union. The resolution read: "This, the University of Michigan chapter of Sigma Delta Chi, national professional journalistic fraternity, seeking to represent the highest ideals of the newspaper profession, unani- mously resolves that: (1) "This chapter is, opposed to the campaign on the part of William Randolph Hearst and his chain of newspapers to abrogate the inherent rights of Americans to think what they wish to think and say what they wish to say, regardless of whether these thoughts' or spoken words are "liberal" or "radical" in nature. (2) "This chapter further deplores that part of the Hearst newspaper propaganda designed to create an high emotional tension productive of strained international relations and bitter feelings towards our friends, the citizens of other nations." The chapter secretary was directed to give the resolution to the press { and to send a copy to Mr. Hearst. Interfraternity Council Ap- points Committee For Drawing Up Plan Complete Abolition ProposedBy Jones New Code Will Eliminate Practices Felt To Be Injurious The Interfraternity Council re- solved to modify Hell Week last night by a vote of 38-1. The resolution was presented by Irving Levitt, '36, and passed by the Council in order to establish the defi- nite sentiment of the fraternities on Hell Week and reads in full "We are in favor of the modification of Hell Week so as to lead to a better under- standing between actives and initiates, unification of the pledge class, com- radeship, and the elimination of all practices which could lead to physical and mental injury." Thirty-nine of the forty-sevei member houses in the Council were present at the meeting. Committee Plans Code The formulation of a definite code of modification was placed in the hands of a committee of four by Philip A. Singleton, '35E, president of the Council. This committee will meet at 3 p.m. Monday and is composed of Edward T. Downs, '36, Trigon, Joseph L. Whitmer, '35, Theta Chi, Thomas E. Groehn, '36, Theta Delta Chi, and William F. Morgan, '35, Psi Upsilon. Modifications which will undoubt- edly be considered by the committee, recording to a member, are the elim- ,nation of all paddling, long hikes, the standardization of the duration f- he period, and all other practices which are felt to be injurious to the health of the initiates. Favors Abolition The discussion on Hell. Week was opened by Frederick F. Jones, '35, Phi Sigma Kappa, who created a furor by presenting a prepared resolution not only strongly advising the aboli- tion of Hell Week but also giving the Interfraternity Council "teeth" to en- force the rules, if passed. Jones based his resolution for aboli- tion on the following facts: "The fra- ternities on the campus of the Uni- versity of Michigan were founded for the promotion of scholarship, high moral character, and the furtherance of the spirit of fellowship, and the practice of Hell Week is not in keeping with these ideals, and furthermore, is liable to inflict physical and mental injuries upon the new initiates." Council Objects The members of the Council ex- pressed emphatic dissent to this reso- lution but following the reading of it began, a spirited discussion on the problem of modification. Jones later admitted that he merely presented the resolution to "stir up" the Council and said he had no idea that it would ever be passed, although he was in favor of it. One of the strongest points for modification as opposed to abolition was presented by Downs, who stated that he did not want Hell Week abol- ished because he believed that there must be some sort of a period between the time of pledgeship and the initia- tion in order to impress the initiates with the seriousness of the occasion. One fraternity president reported that they had intended to start their Hell Week last night but were pro- hibited from doing so by theiralumni and faculty adviser. MIDDLETOWN, Conn., March 7.- A concerted move to abolish Hell Week at Wesleyan College here, start- ed several days ago by the Wesleyan Argus, undergraduate newspaper, gained impetus through various evi- dences of modification today. Two of the campus fraternities, Delta Kappa Epsilon and Chi Psi, have definitely gone on record for the com- plete elimination of all horse-play concerned with the initiation of new members. Both of these houses have abolished Hell Week practices. The Argus has openly encouraged all freshmen to make declarations de- manding a fair and gentlemanly treatment during the initiation period at the point of turning in their pledge Tamagno Is Named C, Basketball Captain Chelse Tamagno, Michigan's most versatile basketball player and a two- year veteran, was elected captain of the 1935-1936 Wolverine cage team at a meeting of the nine basketball lettermen yesterday. Al Plummer is the retiring pilot. During his two years of play on the Varsity, Tamagno has played every position. He broke in as a guard in his first season, and wound up this year playing guard, forward and cen- ter. Tamagno's home is in Chicago where he gained recognition as one of the cleverest ball handlers and floormen in the city high school bas- ketball league while attending Carl Schurz high school. Prof. Campbell Again Working On Book At Huntington Library E a sy Victory Completes Best Hockey Season Michigan's hockey team completed the best season in the history of Wolv-) erine puck competition last night at the Coliseum when it swarmed over St. Thomas A. C. for three periods and hung up the highest scoring ree- ord of the year, 8 to 3. The game, the twelfth victory of; the season, was a fitting close for the I best hockey team and the greatest hockey player ever turned out at Michigan. Co-Captain Johnny Sherf last night put in the unprecedented total of six goals for one game, five of which were made on solo dashes, to fall one counter short of estab- lishing an average of two goals per game for his last year of competition. In 17 contests, Sherf has scored 33 times, and is credited with 10 assists. Vic Heyliger, who played in tough luck throughout the game, got the other goals, to boost his total to 19 for the season. Letter winners were announced di- rectly after the game by Coach Eddie Lowrey. Awards go to Co-Captainsl Johnny Sherf and Johnny Jewell, Vic Heyliger, Dick Berryman, Walt Cour- tis, Don MacCollum, Larry David, and Bill Chase. Ed Chase and Jack Mer- rill will be given numerals. Drawing first blood, Michigan took the puck up the ice for the first thrust at the St. Thomas goal, and, when Sherf made a good pass to Hey- liger, scored after 30 seconds had elapsed in the opening period. Mills, for St. Thomas. tied it up! two minutes later, on an assist from Harding. But Sherf put the Wolver- ines back into the lead at 10:04 on a goal which culminated a solo dash. The second period found Michigan i-- c fr ,n ard runninax in Further work on his book, "The History of Satiric Drama in Europe From 1600-1613," is being done by Prof. O. J. Campbell of the English department at the Huntington Li- brary, Ban Marino, Calif. In his book Professor Campbell will show how the writers of Eliza- bethian comedy were enriched by their borrowings from Italian com- edy. In other words Professor Camp- bell will attempt to prove the aware- ness of Elizabethan dramatists toI Italian culture. Professor Campbell has again been accorded the honor of being appoint- ed a research associate to the library. an opportunity afforded scholars of note thraughout the country in order that they may further their work through the complete facilities of the library. Professor Campbell was al- so in attendance at the library the Speaking at recent ceremonies for the seventh annual observance of Founder's Day, honoring the late Henry A. Huntington, who made the magnificent library and art gallery possible, Professor Campbell said, "There are certain independent ele- ments in the structure of our tivili- zation which have come to us from the past. The scholar seeks to con- serve and interpret these ideals, in the belief that in their maintenance and new application from age to age depends the richness of man's world of thought and feeling and upon this in turn depends the meaning and happiness of his life. "The opportunity of rendering ef- fective service to society brings an invigorating challenge to every schol- ar in the field of the humanities and brings it most irresistably to a re- search institution like the Hunting- ton Library." Professor Camnhell, Tools Used By Neanderthal Man Received By University Museum By F. WARNER NEAL Countless centuries before the He- brew came to the Promised Land, the Neanderthal Man - that half human, half animal-like creature about whom so little is known - stalked the plains of Palestine. Implements used by this prehistoric man in his fight against the elements for existence have come from the eastern shores of the Mediterranean to Ann Arbor. The Museum of Anthro- pology ha's received nearly 1,000 pieces of the crude stonework recently dis- covered in a cave near Mugharet-et- Tabum, Palestine. In use more than 100,000 years ago, the implements were unearthed by the American, School of Prehistoric Re- search an institution of which the by Miss Dorothy A. E. Garrod, of the School of Prehistoric Research. The stone implements are of a type known as Upper Acheulean to' the Lower Aurignacian. Mr. Griffin,, directing the comparative work on the stones, is of the opinion that they are' "very rare specimens." When their classification is completed, he expects some "very interesting revelations." When his work on them will be com- pleted he does not know. "It will take a long time," he said. They were sent here by Dr. George G. MacCurdy, of Connecticut, who aided in the direction of the excava- tions. While other objects unearthed at Mugharet-et-Tabum have been sent elsewhere, all stone implements and notterv from the excavation wil
