Pledge Cards
Given Builders
Of Bell Tower
Ann Arbor Residents Aim
To Reach Goal Set By
UniversityClub
Pledge cards for subscriptions to
the "Builder of the Tower" campaign
were distributed among the residents
of Ann Arbor yesterday in an effort
to raise the $25,000 goal of the local
University club.
Teams were organized under the
auspices of the local University club
and they presented cards to mem-
bers of the community including all
the business and professional men in
the downtown districts.
Officials in charge of the drive
said they hoped the entire $25,000
would be subscribed by tonight and
that possibly an additional amount to
be applied on the $35,000 for the
Tower proper would also have been
realized.
The money raised by the local club
will be used in the construction of
the bell chamber and the superstruc-
ture of the Tower.
Thursday night at the banquet at
which former governor and Regent
Chase S. Osborn and President Alex-
ander G. Ruthven spoke,it was stat-
ed that a great deal of the necessary
$25,000 had been raised, but officials
emphasized that more than half re-
mained to be accounted for.
Inquiries concerning the minimum
subscriptions to the project have been
made, in view of the cost involved in
inscribing the names of the donors
on the walls of the Tower. The
contractors have stated that the pos-
sible costs would be less than $1 per
name, and officials said that all sub-
scribers of $1 and upwards would1
have their names on the walls of the
Tower.
Franco-German
Colonial Moves
Are Discussed
Prof. Reichenbach Traces
Conflict Between Rival
Countries In Morocco
Tracing the development of the
conflict of France and Germany in
Morocco, Prof. K. H. Reichenbach of
the history department spoke yester-
day over the University Broadcasting
Service,
Explaining that France's second
colonial empire began in the seizure
of Algeria in 1847, because of the fact
that the French consul there was
struck three times in the face with a
fly swatter by the sovereign of that
country, the speaker explained step
by step further expansion.
He showed how Tunis was seized
by France in the wave of "imperialist
expansion which swept the European
powers after the Franco-German
War." Soon almost all the parties in
France, even the Socialists, were con-
vinced of the desirability of the seiz-
ure of Morocco, he pointed out.
France's arguments, he added, were
simple ones that Frepch occupation
would be a safeguard against dis-
order in Algeria, that the country was
strategically valuable for military and
naval purposes, and "that the past
experience of the French had ren-
dered them peculiarly able to deal
with Moslems."
Around 1900, Professor Reichen-
bach continued, Morocco was a coun-
try in a backward state, "peculiarly

suitable for European exploitation."
Besides having economic possibili-
ties, it was undeveloped and presid-
ed over by a weak government, he
explained.
When Abd-el-Aziz came to the
throne, the speaker added, his expen-
sive and childish tastes which led
him to purchase expensive European
articles and "forsake the ways of his
ancestors" brought revolt from his
subjects.
At this time France stepped in,
Professor Reichenbach asserted, first
having obtained the approval of Eng-
land, Italy, and Spain, neglecting
however Germany, who had econom-
ic interests in the country.
Teachers To Hold
Convention Here
The fiftieth annual convention of
the School Masters Club, an organi-
zation comprising college and high
school teachers throughout the state
of Michigan, is scheduled to meet
here May 1 and 2, according to Miss
Edith J. Hoyle, president of the so-
ciety.
The convention will include a ser-
ies of 20 conferences, to be held in
various buildings throughout the
campus, and an attendance of 3000
is expected.
In connection with this meeting
the School of Education will sponsor
a statewide conference of college in-

Stephens Library Quadrupleos
Circulation fnder New S ystem

Instructor - Librarian Plan'
Impracticable In Larger
Institutions, Mann Says
The plan with which the Stephens
College Library of Columbia, Mis-
souri, quadrupled its circulation with-
in two years, according to a recent
bulletin issued by W. H. Cowley, was
termed a new and unique experiment
in small college libraries by Prof
Margaret Mann, of the University
library science department, yesterday.
The Stephens Library is under the

tors who are well acquainted with the
books in their fields.
Has Novel Aspect
Another aspect of the system and°
the one which is the most novel, it
was explained, relates to the exten-
sion of the library service not only
in literature but also in art and music,
not because both are administered
together, but rather because each has
to do with the developing of the stu-
dent intellectually and culturally out-
side the bounds of the curriculum."

Impractical In Large Library
However, explained Professor
Mann, the plan as practiced by Steph-
ens College, which has an enroll-
ment of 900 women students, would
be impracticable in a larger library
because it would involve a greater
amount of personal contact between
the students and the faculty who are
also the librarians, it would involve
agreater cooperation of the faculty
and it requires a greater amount of
time than can be given in a large
library to the administration of the
system.
A unique feature of the plan, ac-
cording to the announcement, places
the librarian in the position of dean
of instruction. Similarly many of the
instructors are librarians and not
only teach but also handle the books
in their instructional fields.
This has led to the introduction of
divisional libraries, classroom libraries
and departmental libraries - which-
ever suits the needs of the particular
departments, it was explained. In
this way the subjects are taught in
an atmosphere of books by instruc-

wea Le proceaure of making the
most of the library equipment, it was
explained.
Professor Mann emphasized that it
is a splendid idea for libraries to fol-
low up the students' interests and
provide adequately for them.
