No. 118 ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN, TUESDAY, MARCH 12, 1935 PRICE FIVE CENTS Say Revolt Is Crushed In Greecel Government Announces Complete Victories In Macedonia And Thrace Claims Cruiser Is Flying White Flag Unconfirmed Report Says Venizelos Will Proclaim Crete Separate State ATHENS, March 11-(A')- The in- surrection is definitely crushed in Macedonia and Thrace and Gen. George Kondylis, leader of the gov- ernment forces, is returning to Athens, the government officially an- nounced tonight. The rebels, on the eleventh day of the revolt, have been blasted from their pr' cipal strongholds in Seres, Drana, Eavalla and Demirhissar, Kotini, and Dede Heach, the an- nouncement added. It also was officially announced the cruiser Hele is in government hands, and, flying a white flag, is near the harbor of Kavalla. It was indicated, although not con- firmed, that former Premier Eleu- therios Venizelos, leader of the re- bellion in Crete, has accepted the defeat of his Macedonian and Thrace followers and will proclaim Crete a separate state. More Reports Received There were even reports here that the retreating rebels had strewn flow- ers in the path of the advancing vic- torious government troops. The of- ficial government casualty list in the "grand push" was given as two dead and four wounded on the govern- ment'side. Premier Payayoti Tsaldaris, indi- cating the rapid 'disintegration of rebel defenses in embattled Mace- donia, issued a statement that as soon as the rebel evacuation of Drama was confirmed, the Macedonian re- bellion would be over, adding that the authority of the lawful government would be quickly reestablished in all the islands of Greece.( Gen. George Kondylis, the War Minister who took the field in Mace- donia, wired the War Department from Seres: "We entered Seres at 9 o'clock. Rebel officers fled after robbing the Bank of Greece's local agency. They are now at Kavalla, from where I am informed they will sail on rebel ships. I am sending garrisons to occupy Drama, Kavalla, Xanthe and Alex- andropolis." Report Many Captured The government announced that 3,000 rebel soldiers had been cap- tured during the operations in Mace- donia. Naval losses of rebel forces were also reported by Greek authori- ties, who claimed that the light cruis- er Helle (originally built in the United States for the Chinese Government), was in government hands at Kavalla. The Naval Ministry said that the crew of the Helle'at 4:20 a.m. had placed themselves under government orders after all officers on the active list had abandoned ship. (The gov- ernment quoted the crew as saying it had thrown the rebel officers over- board.) The Ministry ordered the vessel to proceed to the Gulf of Sal- onika. Bulgarian, Greek Clash Is Averted SOFIA, Bulgaria, March 11. - (W) - An armed clash between Bulgarian and Greek troops was narrowly avert- ed when a group of fugitive rebels sought refuge on Bulgarian soil, it was reported here tonight. One of the rebels who reached safety w s identified as Gen. Demetrius Ka- manos, leader of the insurgents in Macedonia. The rebel officers were travelling to- ward the Bulgarian front in four auto- mobiles and got stuck in the mud shortly before reaching the border. All the officers except three left their cars and passed over the frontier. A small Greek government patrol appeared on the scene and arrested the officers still in the automobiles. One of them killed himself. The guards then dashed after the other of-I ficers who had reached Bulgarian soil,l where they were halted by Bulgarian frontier guards.

C. i i Tony Sender Sees End Of Nazi Regime Exiled Reichstag Member Discloses 'Facts' About PendingRevolution Hitler Is Denounced In Vigorous Terms Miscellaneous Group Of Radicals, Fascists Hear Talk In Socialist Hall Miss Tony Sender, exiled member 3f the German Reichstag, foretold the downfall of the Nazi regime in Germany, and disclosed the "facts" about the underground 'revolution which is now being prepared, in a speech before a mixed audience of :ocialists, Communists and Americar Fascists in the SocialistaHall. Virulent and fiery in her denuncia- tion of Hitler and his government. he characterized Germany today as "the last chapter of Germany history." She added the qualification that Ger- many is now "in a period of utter bru- tality, barbarism, and tyranny." Tracing the history of the post-war German republic, she called the rise of the National Socialist Party a phe- nomenon due to the inability of the workers of the country to form a united front. The Communists were blamed for an apathy towardstcondi- tions, and an unwillingness to unite in opposition to Hitler with the Ger- man Socialists. She described them as waiting their turn in power. and discovering too late that that turn was not coming. -!Mass Lacks Initiative' Today, according to Miss Sender, the mass of the people of Germany has simply stopped thinking. They allow themselves to be led by popular demagogues without any independent thought. The idea of personal liberty has been lost, and with it all free- dom of thought and action, particu- larly in the case of the German woman. Murder Hunt At Standstille General Johnson As Clues Fail!

Although it was originally an- nounced that the proposal would be left before the authorities only until 4 p.m. yesterday, the time was later shifted to about 6 p.m. today. If no decision has been announced by that time, the original Strachey Lecture Committee will again be active and the faculty group will be dissolved. Committeemen Pessimistic Indications early this morning, however, were to the effect that the request would not be granted by the committee. Efforts to reach Carl F. Brandt, the committee's spokesman, for, an official pronouncement were unavailing, but comment from the other members exhibited only a desul- tory interest in the new plan. Of the two committeemen who were contacted one was extremely pessi- mistic about the chances of the facul- ty group's proposal and the other ex- pressed complete ignorance of it. One of the other members was out of town and the fourth could not be reached. Rumor Spiked An early rumor that the lecture committee had received no official, signed request from the faculty group was spiked when Prof. Louis C.. Karp- inski declared that he had personally given the petition to Mr. Brandt at about 4 p.m. The first committee member spok- en to intimated that there had been several petitions from faculty mem- bers presented during the day, but repeatedly expressed the belief that the' matter had been "completely closed" as far as the committee was concerned. Meanwhile a detailed, notarized oath was submitted to The Daily by William L. Fisch, '37, a member of the Strachey committee and execu- tive secretary of the National Student League, enumerating, all the events leading up to the official refusal by Mr. Brandt Friday. University Willed $30,768_By Hesse The University has .been granted a fourth of the $123,073 estate of the late Bernard C. Hesse, '83, noted New Yorkrchemist, it was announced here yesterday. The- University's portion, amount- ing to $30,768, was determined yes- terday when the New York State Transfer Tax Department appraised the estate of Mr. Hesse, who died April 21, 1934. Mr. Hesse was chief chemist for the Allied Chemical and Dye Cor- poration.'

Project Heads Announced By League Council Margaret Curry And Shirl Crosman Are Selected For Positions Margaret Curry was appointed gen- eral chairman of the Freshman Proj- ect yesterday by the League Council. Shirl Crosman was named assistant chairman. Miss Curry is freshman president of Mosher Hall, librarian of the Freshman Girls' Glee Club, and chairman of decorations for the Frosh Frolic. She is from Saginaw . Miss Crosman, affiliated with Gam- ma Phi Beta sorority, is freshman president of Jordan Hall, president of the Freshman Girls' Glee Club, and a member of the freshman fi- nance committee. She is from Frank- linville, N. Y. Other Appointments Made At the same time the Council an- nounced the appointment of other central committee members Theresa Swab, a member of Theta Phi Alpha sorority, will act as publicity chair- man. Harriet Shackleton, affiliated with Kappa Alpha Theta sorority, was named art chairman, and Joanne Kimmel, non-affiliated, will be fi- nance chairman. Helen Purdey, also non-affiliated, was appointed ticket chairman, and Billie Sufferin will head the dance committee. Miss Suf- ferin is a member of the dance com- mittee and chairman of the house committee at Betsy Barbour. These seven women will meet at 7:30 p.m. tonight in the League to or- ganize the project. They will ap- point their committee members from among the women submitting peti- tions. Merit System Used The choice of officers in the first- year class project was made in ac- cordance with the merit system of the League. All women interested in positions submitted petitions and were interviewed by the Judiciary Council. Judiciary then made recoin- mendations for the offices, and the League Council appointed on the basis of these recommendations. More than 75 petitions were filed by freshman women, with 42 applica- tions for the office of general chair- man. The Freshman Project is held an- nually in May, and follows lines of en- tertainment similar to the Sophomore Cabaret and the Junior Girls Play. Caribbean Flight Movie Is Shown To A.S.M.E. The aeronautical division of the ASM.E. met last nght in the Mich- She revealed, however, the exist- ence of an "underground" organiza- tion pledged to revolution, and the destruction of the Nazi party and power. She was unable, she explained, to describe how this organization operated for fear of imperiling her German friends who are at the pres- ent time engaged in the movement in Germany. Barbarities of the Nazi regime were retold, stotries of immuration of liv- ing )ersons in stone walls, of disap- pearance, and of sudden death - all were used to play on the emotions of the audience. Speaking in a dra- matic fashion, she recounted the numbers of her friends who had died before Nazi guns. Eight Times Returned} Miss Sender was eight times re- turned from her constituenc'y in Sax- ony to the German Reichstag, and she claims that even today she is in touch with the true sentiment of her people. "There is a greater Germany beneath," she said. and expressed her belief that it would one day rise again. Hitler, she characterized in the bit- ing statement that "the Nazis lie, have lied in the past, will lie, and know that they lie!" She told of the revealing chapters in his book which point to the destruction of France, and the extension of the German nation. "Germany is prepared today to build one thousand airplanes in a week. Her armies are trained again. Gas, light and heavy artillery, machine guns and rifles, all the munitions of war are behind Hitler. And with these is added the greatest horror yet to be released on the world,rthat of bac- teriological warfare." These were the words of warning she gave to the au- dience, and finally made an appeal to America to stop here, before it is too late, the tide of popular unrest and disunity that can lead to the en- thronement of a "brutish demagogue." Dean Kraus Opens Series Of Lectures * Opening a series of vocational talks arranged by Dean Edward H. Kraus of the Literary College for literary students and all others interested, Dean Henry M. Bates of the Law School and Dean James B. Edmon- son of the School of Education will deliver lectures this week on the field of their respective professions. Dean Bates will speak at 4:15 p.m. today in Room 1025, Angell Hall, on the profession of law, and Dean Ed- monson will speak at the same time Fruitless; Mother Says Sled Was Used In Killing Search for the murderer of seven- year-old Richard Streciher, Jr., came to a stand-still early this morning, when Washtenaw County authorities admitted that the case is "one of the most puzzling we have ever run up against." Clue after clue has been run down, Prosecutor Albert Rapp, who is in charge of the investigation, said, "only to leave us further from the solution than before." The main course of action followed by the prosecutor's office and sheriff's last night was to run down all degener- ates and other disreputable charac- ters known. Another late development in the case was the disclosure that Mr. and Mrs. Richard Streicher, of Ypsilanti, parents of the slain boy, had engaged private detectives to bring the killer to justice. This was revealed by H. B. Baker, an Ypsilanti friend of the family, who was a pallbearer at the funeral, held yesterday. Two Possible Motives ' Early yesterday afternoon, authori- ties were searching for three persons in particular, one seen walking with Richard on the day of his death, described as "a tall man wear- ing a long black overcoat."hGerald Young, 13 years old, said that when he was playing with Richard Thurs- day, he had seen the man walk off toward the Huron River bridge with him. No definite clues have been found, however, police admitted. Two possible theories were ad- vanced by authorities as to the motive for the fiendish crime. Ralph South- ard, Ypsilanti chief of police, stated the opinion that it was done for re- venge, while Prosecutor Rapp gives "slight predominance" to the belief that it was the work of a sex degen- erate. The "revenge theory" was given a set-back yesterday when, after a long grilling in Chicago by Michigan State and Ypsilanti police, John Tisto, uncle of the murdered boy, was re- leased and "absolved of all connec- tion with the crime." Parents Questioned Prosecutor Rapp now has possess- ion of little Richard's sled, which was found near the house after his mur- der. Mrs. Streicher advanced the belief that the sled was in some way connected with the killing. While Dr. Stacy C. Howard, of St. Joseph's Hos- pital here, who performed the autop- sy, said that the wounds could pos- sibly have been inflicted by the sled runners, the prosecutor is inclined to discount the theory. However, he brought the sled to Ann Arbor last night for finger-printing. Contrary to a statement which ap- peared in a Detroit morning news- paper, Prosecutor Rapp denied that he said the parents of the boy "have not told me all they know." Mr. and Mrs. Streicher were questioned by him yesterday, but no new facts were brought to light, he said. Michigan Has 12 Graduates In Congress More graduates of the University of Michigan Law School are members of the present Congress than of any other Law school, it is revealed by a survey published in a recent issue of The Bar Examiner magazine. The Law School is represented in the United States Senate by three Democratic sentors and has nine graduates in the House of Represen- tatives, eight Democrats and one Re- publican. The University of Alabama Law School also has three graduates in the Senate, but only five in the House. New York University has one I Senator and eight Representatives.

E. Jenks, University of Minnesota anthropol- ogist, according to the Minnesota Daily. He believes that athletics are causing the increased size of wom- en's appendages. This seems to indicate that an American individual, "racially as well as nationally," is being developed from the American melting pot. Us- ing students as subjects in his work Professor Jenks finds, in addition to the scarcity of short-armed co-eds, that "narrow-headed persons . .. are rare." As a result of his interesting re- search work he has come to the con- clusion that blondes are in the last stage of their popularity, unless Eu- ropean blonde races contribute to our fast dwindling supply. The blondes and more darkly pig- mented races are producing a dis- tinct American type. He believes that "a taller, darker-eyed,rdarker- haired, and darker-skinned race will be the result," if no unforeseen com- plications arise. Aero Engineers Inspect Stinson Aircraft Plant Airport Is By Group More than 40 members of the aero- nautical engineers division of the A.S.M.E. Saturday made an inspec- tion trip to the Stinson Aircraft Plant near Wayne, Mich., and later to the Wayne County Airport in Detroit. Bernard DeWeese, '34, at the pres. ent time an official at the Stinson fac- tory, conducted the groub through the plant. The assembly detailsbf the new Stinson tri-motor airplane proved of particular interest to the students The plane is now used between De- troit and Toledo in test flights by the American Airlines. The development of Stinson air- planes was traced by the grout through the entire plant, from the stock room to the final assembly line and the completed plane. The pre- dominance of welding in the struc- ture of modern airplanes was espe- cially noticeable in the StinsoiY plane under construction. On the floor of the hanger in the Wayne County Airport, which the students visited following their inspec- tion of the Stinson plant, their at- tention was centered on the Roscoe Turner plane that now holds the pres- ent transcontinental speed record. The Wayne County Airport holds the highest rating issued by the De- partment of Commerce, that of A-T- A. An interesting feature is the light- ing equipment which is controlled en- tirely from a panel in the observa- tion tower. The radio and loud-speak- ing equipment is also located there. The airport is a complete city ir itself, having its own power plant, heating system, hotel, restaurant, am- bulance, fire fighting equipment and water supply. While the group was in- specting the airport, a member of the club, Francis Wallace, '35E, flew oven the Stinson plant and landed on the field. House Repeals 'Pink Slip' Law By 3TolIVote WASHINGTON, March 11 -)- A near-capacity House voted more than 3 to 1 today that the little "pink slip" symbolizing publicity of income tax returns should never be used. Shouting down attempts to amend the measure introduced by Chair- man Robert L. Doughton, of the Ways and Means Committee, to repeal the 1934 revenue law's publicity section, the House sent it along, 304 to 99, to the Senate, whence came the first move for publicity. '.z Calls Former NRA Head 'Chocolate Soldier'; Hits At Big Bankers Reply To Priest's Accusations Made Coughlin And Long Called 'Public Enemies Number One And Two' In Return DETROIT, March 11 -(1)- Hurl- ing invective to right and left and pounding his desk with clenched fist, the Rev. Charles E. Coughlin turned loose a caustic attack on Hugh S. Johnson tonight, calling him a "choc- olate soldier" and declaring that he would fight to his dying day the Morgans, the Baruchs, the Kuhn- Loebs, and "the rest of that wrecking crew of internationalists." Coatless and perspiring, Father Coughlin spoke for 45 minutes over a national radio hook-up, challenging the motives behind the criticism aimed at him a week ago when the former NRA administrator described him as being "the leader of a revo- lutionary party" and one of the "mad pipers" appearing to the "lunatic fringe" of the people in his role as a Catholic priest. Father Coughlin strongly defended his right to discuss economic and political subjects in his Sunday after- noon discourses and asserted that he was still staunchly supporting the ad- ministration of President Roosevelt. "While it will always be impossible for me to divest myself of my Cath- olic priesthood, nevertheless in ac- cepting the dignities which my re- ligion conferred on me, I sacrificed in no respect the rights identified with my citizenship," Father Cough- lin said. JOHNSON MAKES REPLY WASHINGTON, March 11-VP)- Hugh S. Johnson tonight denounced Father Coughlin and Sen. Huey Long as "public and political enemies num- ber one and two" and promised an early and detailed reply to tonight's attack by the priest.

Brace, Health Service physician, said yesterday. "Ever since the period of mild weather last week followed by a storm and the subsequent change in tem- perature," Dr. Brace stated, "there has been an ever-increasing stream of patients suffering from colds, These colds have been marked by an un- usually large number of high fevers, and consequently the infirmary has been filled to capacity since that time." Dr. Brace said that the type of cold which seems to predominate has resulted in comparatively severe sick- ness in several instances. He added that two cases have developed into
