As A Diplomat...
W HATEVER President Roosevelt's
shortcomings may be in his ad-
ministration of domestic business, it is becoming
increasingly apparent that his direction of foreign
e affairs is diplomatic.
Despite the demands of pressure groups that the
~United States interefere in the domestic concerns
of certain foreign governments the President has
wisely refused to do so.
The latest example of Mr. Roosevelt's diplomatic
wisdom is his refusal to grant the request of the
Knights of Columbus for an investigation of re-
ligious persecution in Mexico. Religious persecu-
s tion in a country is to be deplored, but the Gov-
l ernment of the United States is not the proper
s body to correct internal conditions in foreign
countries.

THE ABRUPTNESS with which the
Undergraduate Council of the
League expressed itself as favoring the rolling up
of sidewalks for undergraduate women at 12:30
a.m. Friday nights came as a complete surprise to
the campus.
Little more than a month ago both sorority and
independent women expressed themselves almost
unanimously as opposed to any change. Further-
more, the Senate Committee on Student Affairs
decided to postpone consideration of the issue until
the second semester, with the idea of not taking
action then unless it was deemed necessary.
In revealing its amazing action the Council out-
lined the following reasons:
(1) There have been many complaints by pro-
fessors that students are bolting their Saturday
morning classes.
(2) House mothers and dormitory heads have
reported cases of "fatigue" on the part of under-
graduate women du'ring week-ends.
(3) Saturday classes are now definitely a perm-
anent institution at the University, whereas at first
they were believed only tentative.
Regarding bolting on Saturday mornings, we do
not believe that it is reasonable to assume that
these bolts - if excessive - are the result of any
late hours which undergraduate women have been
keeping this year. It is conceivable that other
reasons, such as week-ends out-of-town, particu'-
larly during the football season, might have some
bearing on attendance during these first eight
weeks.
A survey conducted yesterday by The Daily and
published on page one today indicates that cases
of "fatigue" reported by house mothers and dor-
mitory heads have been comparatively few. Thir-
teen of the fourteen officials interviewed stated
that their charges did not seem to be suffering
from any ill effects.
The third reason for the nronosed change is en-

Let's Pick Our Own Hours
To the Editor:
Speaking from the standpoint of typical women
students in the University, we feel that the con-
templated change of hours for Friday night is
uncalled-for and absurd. As grown-up young
women, we feel that we should be able to judge
whether or not our work necessitates the keeping
of early hours. Why not leave this question up]
to the individual? Those few people who are anx-
ious to keep- early hours on Friday night are not
prevented by any statute from doing so.
It has been stated that there is a feeling of
"fatigue" on Saturday mornings. This condition,]
if it exists, is probably due to constant application
to studies throughout the week more than to the
late hours. Why shorten an already short evening
by one hour?]
What has caused this sudden change in "campus
opinion?" Has it been the number of bolts taken
by women students in Saturday classes? Per-
sonally, we do not believe "campus opinion" has
changed. Why should 17 seniors, who obviously
are not representing "campus opinion," dictate to
thousands of women students? Perhaps they
think they are doing right, but aren't they too
much weighted down with the sense of their own
responsibility?]
If eventually it is proven that late hours do affect
the health and scholastic standing of women
students, then let the hours be changed by unani-
mous vote. But at least wait until the hectic days
of football games and adjustment are over.

Admit The Stags
To the Editor:
It's high time the powers that have charge of
the weekly Union and League dances came to their
senses and permitted sale of a limited number of
tickets to stags. With things as they are, those
dances are the dullest social affairs on the campus:
unless you and your fair co-ed are lucky enough
to be a unit in one of those merry double or quad-
ruple date affairs, you must trip the not-so-light;
fantastic all evening in unmitigated devotion to
each other. Now, quite regardless of her un-
deniable personal charm and undoubted terpsi-
chorean ability, you are bound, sooner or later, to
get distinctly tired of pushing the same clinging
female around the room dance after dance ad
infinitum; and if you think she doesn't occasionally
get sick of your cruising fox-trot together with its
two tricky variations and that dip you learned last
Christmas, just ask her sometime. All this could
be easily remedied by allowing admittance to, say,
25% as many stags as couples, these stags per-
mitted to "cut in," or "break" between individual
dance tunes, and no cutting allowed until each
number ends and the next begins. Such a plan
would not only make the dance three times as
exciting for the co-eds but would enable you
gentlemen to try your fandangos on that air-flow
blond you noticed over in the S.W. corner of the
ballroom. And if any of you pseudo-sophisticates
think it would be "improper" or "undignified" to
allow breaking without introductions, just forget
it: they've been doing it at "dignified" eastern
colleges for years; and what Michigan needs is a
little less hauteur and a little more geniality. At
present it takes grim determination, hours of
amateur sleuthing with a campus Directory, and
several inches of crust for a Michigan man-espe-
cially one unaffiliated with a fratenity - to get
even on speaking terms with an attractive co-ed
whom he happens to see at the Union of a Friday
night.
One parting shot: if the plan outlined above
were adopted - as it probably won't be --it would
be quite your privilege, you one-woman love-birds,
to refuse to request to break, if you so saw fit; so
don't claim that anyone's trying to disrupt your
Fine Careless Rapture.

They keep on awarding prizes for "diction.".
Now diction, according to the dictionaries, means
a choice of words; a mode of expression, as
"Milton's flawless diction." It is true that dic-
tion, through misuse, has come to mean pro-
nunciation and articulation. But it is bad diction.
Miss Lynn Fontanne, who got a merited award
for her manner of speaking, got it for "diction,"
but Miss Fontanne has little choice of the words
she says so trippingly on the tongue. She says
Shakespeare's words these days; and she has been
saying Noel Coward's and Robert E. Sherwood's
words. Our diction, such as it is, is more praise-
worthy than our Cook County pronunciation
and intonation.

Off The Record
By SIGRID ARNE
HENDRIK VAN LOON, the writer,
was having a time for himself
teasing AAA officials. He wanted to
know how they counted hogs in the
reduction program. Then he solemn-
ly outlined a possible method:
"I have a friend who is a sheep
estimator," he said. "One day riding
an express train in Holland he looked
out at a pasture and announced there
were 570 sheep in the meadow.
"I was amazed and aksed how he
could tell. He replied it was per-
fectly easy. He just counted the legs
and divided by four."
The letter to the President was
from a man who evidently mis-
understood governmental meth-
ods. He asked for a loan of $150.
He added that if the loan could
be arranged he would "not say
anything about it."
SENATOR 'HAM' LEWIS of Illinois
was inveighing against those crit-
ics of the "new deal" who raise con-
stant cries of, "Oh, the constitu-
tion!" They remind him, said Lewis,
of Samuel Johnson, the English writ-
er, who one day at his boarding house
was served a soup he didn't relish.
"What kind of soup is this?" he
asked.
"It's oxtail," was the reply.
"Seems to me you're going a long
way back for a little soup," said
Johnson.
BLACK champlain marble has been
used for the floor board in the
corridor outside the bureau of fish-
eries offices. In the slab beside the
door there is a little sot. lighter in
color.
One day as two of the bureau's re-
search scientists returned from lunch
one fell suddenly to his knees and
peered excitedly at the light colored
spot. His specialty is the earliest
known forms of fish life. The spot
was an unusually good specimen of
the "nautiloid cephalapod," which by
a freak of chance had found its way
to so appropriate a place. It is esti-
mated the nautiloid was caught in its
present bed 85,000,000 years ago.
MAGNIFICENT as the new supreme
court building is, the lawyers who
practice there need no longer appear
in formal dress. The rules in past
years were so rigid court attaches
kept a medium-sized tailcoat in the
cloak room with an assortment of
collars and black ties into which
forgetful attorney were poured before
they entered the court.
PEOPLE who go to the library in
the new archives building to ex-
amine the government's valuable
documents will be under the constant
watch of a man seated on a pedestal
at one end of the room.
If he suspects that anyone is trying
to cut out a signature of Abraham
Lincoln for his private autograph
collection, the watchman will push a
button and the building doors will
lock automatically.
Visitors to statuary hall in the
capitol sometimes are startled by
the sound of a voice which seems
to come up out of the floor. The
illusion is caused by a strange
trick of acoustics.
There are two spots in the hall
that seem to act as a telephone.
When people stand over one spot
and whisper they can be heard in
the other, 25 feet away, quite dis-
tinctly. Their voices seem to rise
from the stone floor.
