in the last 16 months, would have an air corps
"as outmoded as Ethiopia's."
In Japan last week the minister of defense told
politicos who opposed his demands for greater
army and navy appropriations that if the admit-
tedly impoverished Japanese people were over-
taxed, it was the politicians' duty to make them
war-conscious, willing to support the armed forces
of the Son of Heaven.
In Ann Arbor a Chinese student, at the Foreign
Students' banquet Wednesday night, deplored the
fact that China had awakened too late to train
for self-defense, was not at the mercy of Japan.
With war the keynote in every large nation of
the world today, with the contagious epidemic
of combat already contaminating the waters of
the trouble-laden Mediterranean where Great
Britain, France, and Italy focus their trade, there
can be little doubt that war on a large scale, if
not inevitable, at least hangs dangerously in the
balance.
Appropriately on Thanksgiving Day came the
welcome announcement that the United States
was going still further to assure the success of its
neutrality policy. Manufacturers of implements
of war must register their products and assure
the government that they will not be shipped to
belligerent nations. Large fines are provided for
as interpreters in case the munition makers can-
not.understand the language Uncle Sam is talking.
America didn't bolt any classes in 1917 in her
course on the horrors of war: the examination
can't be far away. Has America learned the
lesson?

'Cut Out The 'Kid Stuff'
Student Moviegoers...
TREND ON THIS campus which
has now changed to a habit is
' jtha of heckling performers -good or bad - at
the local, movie theaters.
This form of exhibitionism, exhibited always
by only a minority of the audience, is at times
humorous but for the most part juvenile and
annoying, both to those who go to a movie
to see those paid to entertain and not volunteers
. jin the audience and to the performers them-
selves.
The attitude seems to be that because vaude-
Sville performers are paid to entertain the audi-
ence, it therefore follows that they are bought
outright by the paid customers and are at the
disposal of the alleged whims and witticisms
of the latter group.
For those who are not aware of it that form
of exhibitionism is "cow college" stuff, is not
W funny, and should be cut out. If it is not
the managers of the various theaters may be
assured that they have our heartiest editorial
cooperation in any evacuation progiram they
might attempt.
It Isn't How, But What
You Say That Should Count
P RESIDENT ROOSEVELT really
.:said nothing new in his radio ad-
dress to the nation from Atlanta yesterday.
The theme of his talk was the promise for a
cessation in expenditures and a "decreasing defi-
cit." This is what he has said all along, in his
pre-election declarations as well as when he
was asking for billion dollar appropriations.
He mentioned "continuing economic develop-
ment" and increasing revenues "without the
imposition of new taxes." "We were insolvent.
Today we are sovent," said the President.
There was not much else Mr. Roosevelt could
have said. He could hardly have told the nation
that he planned no cessation to expenditures;
that the deficit was increasing and that there
was no "continuing economic development."
Hardly. There is an election next year, and Mr.
Roosevelt is very, very much aware of it.
Of course, when the President speaks, it is
news. But in view of what the Chief Executive
said yesterday, we cannot help but feel that
the great headlines given his address in some
newspapers were unwarranted.
The President repeated only what he has
told the nation time and again in his "fireside
chats." We do not feel tremendously elated
at his predictions and prognostications, as we did
not feel particularly alarmed before he uttered
them.
The Accent Is On
Youth And War ...
SPORT NOTE: While the commen-
tator of a recent Paramount news-
reel showing a Russian parade explained that the
marching groups were displaying various Russian
sports, a float passed with a gun-crew of boys
engager in maneuvering a mounted machine-gun
-typical of youths' sports in dictator countries
today.
Even in still-republican France, large numbers
of regular troops were moved into Paris Thurs-
day, as the legislature assembled, to crush any
possible moves of the militant Croix de Feu

A Bouquet For Play Production
First Presbyterian Church
Edmonton, Alberta
November 21, 1935
To The Editor:
Recently it was my privilege to witness the first
performance by the students of the University of
Michigan of "Twelfth Night." I was somewhat
dubious about going, I fear with the usuel dis-
taste for amateur performances felt by those who
have been or are dramatic critics; but I should
like to say that I have seldom been so pleasurably
surprised. I came away with the feeling that
at last somebody had discovered what Shake-
speare really meant us to see in Malvolio.
I have always resented the representation of
Malvolio as a senseless dolt. No man could hold
the office of steward for a great estate and be as
witless generally as he has been made to appear
customarily. The happy conception of the director
and Mr. Charles T. Harrell of a clever man of
affairs being fooled to the top of their bent by
merry rogues, satisfies me as the actual character
Shakespeare had in mind, and the exit of Mal-
volio with his utterly human imprecations and
threats of reprisals sent the swift thought through
my mind that Shakespeare missed a rare oppor-
tunity by not writing a sequel showing how clev-
erly the unhappy dupe turned tables upon the
scheming plotters. Maybe that thought went
through the minds of other witnesses of Mr.
Harrell's performance, too, and could one offer
him sincerer praise than that?
He wNas admirably supported by the other
players, and I felt very happy to note the cor-
rect tempo of the rollicking farce--so many miles
apart from the long-drawn-out presentations of
the majority of professional players, who consider
Shakespeare must always be post-mortemed with
due solemnity.
I was much surprised afterwards to learn that
the students had prepared the artistic settings,
with their gratifying restraint and economy of
detail, and the wholly delightful lighting effects.
Also, that they had made the costumes, and had
avoided the usual anachronisms.
May I express the wIsh that the University of
Michigan students of the drama will take a
noteworthy part in the resuscitation of the legiti-
mate theatre after its eclipse by the "movies," and
help hasten the renascence of the sublime art
which some of its devotees trustfully hope is about
to come? I rather think Drs. Angell and Valen-
tine would add their endorsement of this achieve-
ment, after their comments on the state of univer-
sities today.
In closing, may I add my applause to that of the
discriminating for Mr. Thor Johnson and his
Little Symphony Orchestra?
Mrs. Andrew Rule Osborn
A Grammarian Speaks
To The Editor:
Grammatical controversies are not only inter-
esting but are also instructive, especially to people
such as you and me, who pretend sophistication.
Anent, in last Sunday's Daily (Nov. 23), possibly in
the Conning Tower column, I noticed a line from
another paper held up to fun: "The Literati Pays
Tribute-," and the Daily's comment, "They does,
does they?" So, just for more fun I looked in
a book called Writing and Thinking by Forester
and Steadman, and on page 145 I found a rule
(5f) upon the agreement of a subject with its
verb:
"Use either a singular or a plural verb after
a collective noun, according to the meaning of
the sentence. Right: The jury was to render
its verdict at noon. (The jury viewed as a
unit.) Right: The jury were requested to
take their seats. (The individual jurors viewed
separately.)"
Accordingly, then, the word Literati is a col-
lective noun; and "The Literati (it) pays-" is cor-
rect, since Literati in this case is viewed as a
unit and not individually; and the only illiteracy
The Conning Tower
A Rime of Paris and Helen
IN THE FAR-OFF land of Sparta thirty cen-
turies ago
Lived a monarch and his name was Menelaos,
And his life was full of wretchedness and misery
and woe,
For his wife had got flirtatious with a certain<
gigolo,
Mister Paris, who was noted for the efforts he
devoted
To reducing happy homes to utter chaos.
Now the lady's name was Helen. She was fairest
of the fair,
And that statement stands without a doubtful
"maybe."
She's been picked by all the judges as the queen
beyond compare
Of all the local beauties at the Sparta County
Fair.
So, with that adjudication to support her repu-
tation,
There's no doubt she was the world's most lovely
baby.
And this Paris, who entranced her, was a smoothie
and a sheik,
Far outsheiking even sainted Valentino,
And, although he was a Trojan, he was handsome
as a Greek,
Really godlike in perfection of his features and
physique.
Such a supermundane beauty stirred the heart of
every cutie
And made all the married women dream of Reon.
But, although he'd had his way with her, his soul
was not at peace
When he thought about the local situation.
For her husband, Menelaos, was the boss of Ancient
Greece,
And his brother, Agamemnon, was the chief of the
police
And he had a force of G-men, stout and lusty,
roughneck he-men,
Who would shoot without the slightest hesi-
tation.
So his satisfaction inwardly was not without alloy.
For elopement frank and final Paris panted.
Though at first she seemed reluctant, being fem-
ininely coy,
Yet he finally persuaded her to take the boat for
Troy.
So, as cunningly as foxes, they both packed their
bays and boxes,
And across the blue Aegean they levanted.
She had left a letter telling Menedaos of their
flight.
But at first he couldn't seem to comprehend it.
"My wife gone off with Paris, with that puny
parasite?
"With that parlor-snake, that popinjay, that
paltry carpet-knight?
"By the lethal spear of Pallas, it's a lie got up in
malice!
"It's a forgery and I'll kill the one who penned it!"
But, for all these scornful epithets, which sound
much worse in Greek,
He could not deny the fact of their evasion,
Though he tore his beard in ribbons, while he
cursed that Trojan sneak,
And he boasted of the vengeance he would per-
sonally wreak,
That she'd hopped a Trojan liner for a port in
Asia Minor
Made their flight an international occasion.
So he summoned all his council to advise what
he should do
To uphold the sacred honor of their nation.
Since from brother Agamemnon all the others took
their cue,
He was called upon the first to state the course
we would pursue,
And, with manner most portentious, suiting mat-
ter so momentous
He got off his chest the following oration:
"Menelaos, King of Sparta, well-beloved of Father
Zeus,
"I conceive there's but one answer to your
question.
"When a citizen of Sparta is subjected to abuse,
"Then the government of Sparta has an adequate
excuse
"For a hostile declaration 'gainst the evil-doer's
nation
"That you mobilize at once is my suggestion."
Then there gathered down at Aulis every man and
galleon,
Men from Ithaca and Athens and Plataea,
Men from Samos and Miletos and from Thrace and
Aspledon,
Men from Corinth and Boeotia and from Crete
and Kalydon,
From Aegina and from Helos, Tiryns, Kynos, Kos
and Elis.
Though why they did, they'd not the least idea.
And they said that Priam's motto was his coun-
try over all,
And to conquer all the world was his endeavor
That he aimed to ravage Hellas and to hold the
Greeks in thrall.
Thus informed, the Grecian soldiers were enraged
and, great and small,
Like the ancient theologians, they all cursed the
wicked Trojans
While the bands all played "The Grecian Flag
Forever!"
Midst a flood of execration and a torrent of
abuse,
Then they launched a thousand ships with mighty

THE SCREEN
AT THE MAJESTIC
"THANKS A MILLION"
A 20th Century production starring
Dick Powell, with Ann Dvorak, Fred
Allen, Patsy Kelly, Paul Whiteman and
his band, Rubinoff, and the Yacht
Club Boys.
A political satire of the highest type
furnishes the background for Dick
Powell's singing, and romancing with
j Ann Dvorak, in "Thanks a Million,"
the latest of the Hollywood all-star
shows which differs from the others
in that it is more than a series of
specialty acts.
And for once we thought Powell
contributed a very creditable bit of
acting in addition to his singing.
The probable cause lies in the story,
which is of the type best suited to the
musical-comedy approach of Dick -
