Congratulations
ToThe DailyNews...
T O0THE ANN ARBOR DAILY NEWS,
The Daily extends its congratula-
tions and best wishes.
The Daily News today publishes its 136 page
Centennial Edition, celebrating the official opening
of its new, palatial home and 100 years of vig-
orous journalism.
The opportunity to see the Daily News' new
building should not be neglected. It is our opin-
ion that it is one of the finest and most modern
newspaper plants in the world, a statement ex-
treme but true. The centennial edition will be, we
are certain, something unique in journalism. The
long and colorful past of Ann Arbor and, of course
of the University, will be told in picture and word.
It is something you should not miss.
Again, Ann Arbor Daily News, your colleague ex-
tends congratulations.

so happy about it the next morning."

The man in the gutter replied speechlessly. Then
he added: "But the next time I go on a spree, so-
helpme, I'm going to do it the right way - the
ONLY right way!"
"How," said the Indian.
"By spending Wednesday evening at the annual
business meeting of the Ann Arbor Reporter's As-
sociation!"
"AND HOW," said the Indian.

War And Peace
To the Editor:.
The following quotations are from Nazi news-
papers, speeches and Hitler's autobiography,
"Mein Kampf."
1. To be a Pacifist means to have no beliefs and
no character - Herr Hitler: Political A.B.C.
2. Pacifism is cowardice on principle - not a
theory of life but a defect in character. - The late
Captain Roehm.
3. In pacifist war literature, it appeared that he
who had fallen on the field of honor had died an
unnatural death. It had no understanding of the
old soldiers' song: "There is no better death in
the world than to be slain by the enemy." It did
not understand the old Teutonic disgust with a
death in bed. -Herr von Papen (Speech in Munich,
May 13, 1933).
4. The question of recuperation of German
power is not how we can manufacture arms. Rath-
er it is, how can we create the spirit which renders
a people capable of carrying arms? When this
spirit dominates a people, will-power finds a thou-
sand ways, each of which leads to a weapon. -
Herr Hitler: Mein Kampf (p. 365. 1933 Edition).
5. One need only give the German nation six
million bodies, excellently trained in sport, all of
them inflamed by fanatic love for the Fatherland
and educated to the highest spirit of aggression,
and a national State will, if necessary, within
not even two years have an army created out of
them, at any rate if a certain nucleus for it already
exists. -- Herr Hitler: Mein Kampf (p. 611. 1933
Edition).
6. For the church, the word "peace" does not
necessarily mean the opposite of "war." We have
bees too much a church of peace. -Reichbishop
Dr. Muller, head of the German Christian Church.
7. War is the most simple affirmation of life.
Suppress war, and it would be like trying to sup-
press the processes of nature. - Dr. Goebbels, Min-
ister of Propaganda and Enlightenment.
8. Active service in the Storm Troops and duel-
ling are both serving the same purpose: to pro-
duce courageous men able and willing to fight.
Both are "Service for the State," service for the
nation.- Berliner Boersen Zeitung, Dec. 13, 1933.
9. War is the grand stimulant and uplifter:
quickening the whole pace of existence and open-
ing up a completely different and, in most cases,
novel world of ideas. - Professor Banse, in "Ger-
many Prepares for War."
-- M. Levi.

Sunday, May 10r
WORKED in the early morning, and so to watch
some players rehearse against tonight's bene-I
fit, and so home by six, and thence to Mabel
Souvaine's for supper, and to the City and
Country School benefit, and it seemed to me thatt
Miss Jean Dante and Miss Gypsy Rose Lee and
Mr. George Kaufman were the best in the longt
evening, and so to M. Ernst's and stopped there
talking and listening till near two in the morning,
and then went home only because I was ejected
by my host.
Monday, May 11
rVO THE OFFICE, and all day there at petty
business, and so decided to print C. Ward's'
"A Rime of Odysseus," which was so long that
it must needs be printed in the smallest type
ever I used. Yet it was shorter than Stephen
Phillip's "Ulysses," and than Bryant's "The Odys-
sey." So home, my son Tim now being unpoxedt
and having gone to school, and having been in
bed for more than a week found various subter-
fuges to remain out of it so long that it mightj
have tried the patience of almost anybody else
but me, and as to that it did try it of the other
denizens of my demesne. So to watch C. Day
trounce H. Carlton at cue-tilting, but went home
before that ultimate ball had been pocketed.
Tuesday, May 12
THIS DAY I was mighty indignant about the
congestion in the streets, what with motor-
cars always standing on both sides of most
streets in the town. And I heard about a parko-
imeteer, which tey have in some Michigan
towns. Wherever there is a motor parked there
is one of these devices, and the motorist puts a
nickel into it, and it shows a green flag, and at
the end of an hour, or whatever the legal park-
ing time is, the flag turns red. So if you want
to stay there two hours you will have to go back
to the car and put in another nickel before the
red flag goes up. That this would diminish mo-
toring I do not believe, but that it would in-
crease it. And that it would bring a great fortune
to the city I am confident; though I am certain
that there would immediately spring up in New
York boys who for ten cents would see that the
green flag would be displayed for, say five hours.
But that students of the New York traffic problem
have even thought about I do not know. All morn-
ing at the office, and in the afternoon talked with
J. Wallace about the civic song contest; and so in
the evening to Miss E. Ferber's to one of Rebecca's
Dandy Dinners, and F. Wheeler and Winifred
Lenihan there, and R. Kirby, and Mrs. Benjamin
Hecht; and after dinner fell to talking about
cooks, and how difficult or easy it was to have one
cook well for you, and to do it year after year.
But it seems to me that life is easier for employees
of any sort only if the employer is able to know
how the employee feels and thinks.
Wednesday, May 13
SO TO THE OFFICE, and worked just to keep
the franchise, and not even having energy
enough to go to the baseball game, but heard
before evening that the Giants had beaten the
Cubs, and what is to become of my wagers that 1
both Chicago teams would beat both New York
teams I tremble to think. Early to bed.
Thursday, May 14
UP EARLY and to my office, reading that the
House of Representatives had voted against
the Frazier-Lemke bill, for the refinancing of
farm debts, which all said meant that there
would be no inflation of money. General Allenby
died yesterday, and he is known as the man
who was in the Palestine campaign during the
World War, and there was a legend that the
Quincy, Ill., Whig had printed a headline "Allenby
Captures Christ's Home Town." But I never
saw it, and I do not believe it. So at work till
four o'clock, and Dorothy Kunhardt come in,
and so I to play a game of pool, and so home
for supper, and thenafter to Maud Fangel's, and
found James Norman Hall there, and I asked
him why he did not say, in "The Hurricane," what
the dullest novel was that the doctor could find,
and he said, "I don't know; that was Nordhoff's
chapter." So up town to see A. Ficke the poet,
and had a gay time with him, talking of liter-
ature and kindred matters, and so to a card
game, and fell into an argument with R. Crouse,
about when "The County Chairman" was first
played, and he said it was in 1903, but I showed
him a letter I had from Geo. Ade which said that

it had its first performance in September, 1904,
at the Auditorium, South Bend, and then played
the Studebaker Theater, Chicago. And I asked
Russel where he got his information, and he said
from Mark Sullivan's first "Our Times." So I
looked it up in that volume, and found this: "On
the New York Stage in 1903 George Adue had
two musical comedies and a play. 'The Sultan
of Sulu' achieved a fund of real wit, topical allu-
sion and tunefulness. It was one of the best7
American musical comedies of any time 'The
Prince of Pilsen' was less good." And the play
Mr. Sullivan mentions is "The County Chairman."
But Ade did not write "The Prince of Pilsen."
It was written by Frank Pixley and Gustave Luders.
And since there was tunefulness in "The Sultan
of Sulu," Mr. Sullivan might have added that
the tunefulness was supplied by Alfred G. Wathall.
But on the same page Mr. Sullivan called Henry
E. Dixey Henry E. Dixie, and Lawrance D'Orsay
Lawrence D'Orsay. Lord! some say to me when
I go microscopic on such trivialities, what does it
matter. And my retort is that it does not matter.

DRAMA
LIBEL-
A Review
By C. HART SCHAAF
WHEN ROBERT HENDERSON an-
nounce l that Ann Arbor's 1936
taste of professional theatre was to
begin with Edward Wooll's Libel, crit-
ical opinion among a good many of,
those who secretly enjoy being known
as the intelligentsia seemed to be
that it was too bad that so inconse-
quential a play had been chosen. Such
persons were undoubtedly pained last
night by the ovation given the play
and those who presented it. And a
high percentage of the critics seemed
also to find, no doubt to their own
surprise, that they themselves were
liking it.
To explain this transition shall be
the chief effort of this review.
Ann Arbor is a very fine place in
which to live. However, it has its
drawbacks, and one of them is that
we don't get much theatre. Conse-
quently, we are forced to take a good
bit of our drama vicariously.
We read Theatre Arts Monthly and
The New Theatre. We see what Mr.
Nathan has to say in Life, and we
study Mr. Atkinson in The Times.
We take the course in Modern Drama.
And unconsciously we come to feel
that the only plays worth seeing are
the big, important ones: the stirring
attempts at a new social drama, the
latest complicated effects in styliza-
tion, the brilliant Shakespearean re-
vivals.
All of which is very fine - except
for the fact that we come to forget
all about the littler shows, the "un-
important productions," the plays that
set out simply -- at least it looks
simple- to provide nothing more
than honest, exhilarating recreation,
without great ideas, or daring tech-
nique, or any of the frills and fur-
belows of the "important" theatre.
We become oblivious of the fact that
the theatre is often at its best when
it is seeking only to amuse. And we
fail to appreciate that the dramatic
implements which give effectiveness
and power to the "important drama"
are nearly always conceived and fash-
ioned and tempered in the theatre
which aims solely at the production
of recreation values.I
Then along comes a flesh and blood
play, which we see for ourselves, with-
out reading it.' And sometimes we
are shocked to find that a play can be
excellent entertainment without any
claim to importance! We learn again
what a good thing it is to see a
plain, first rate SHOW.
Such a show is Lib.el. A mystery
that is not a melodrama, a dramatic
puzzle solved with a minimum of
last minute evidence, it is excellent,
fast-moving theatre which sags no-
where and carries its audience straight
through to a bang-up ending that is
pat and convincing and effective.
In Mr. Henderson's production,
there is no intermission between the
first and second acts. The audience
only gets to stretch its legs once dur-
ing the whole play. But nobody com-
plained last night, which is eloiuent
testimony that Libel is sound drama
by what is after all the mos' im-
portant test.
The cast is very good. Miss Dalton,
Mr. Pole, Mr. Lawford, and Mr. Mac-
Kenna turn in smooth and ingratiat-
ing performances. Mr. Henderson
handles his small part with real verve
and finish, and it is pleasant to be
able to say that he somehow manages
to reach a definitely higher level than
any on which this reviewer has so far
seen him.
As a matter of fact, Libel doesn't
need much praise. The first night
audience last evening were excited by
it, from the beginning to the last cur-
tain, and were enthusiastic after-
wards in the lobby. The play speaks
for itself, and the large audiences
who will see it this week will agree

that Mr. Henderson has chosen a
worthy show for the opening of his
1936 season.

The Church
And Emancipation...

" RACE PREJUDICE is more emphatic
now than ever before.
"It has become so terrible that some young
Negres fear their race will soon be exterminated.
"They demand of their preacher that he tell
them what the future holds for them, but he has no
answer."
That is the report of the Rev. Dr. Noble Y. Beall,
of Atlanta, Ga., speaking at the meeting of the
Southern Baptist Convention Saturday in St. Louis.
If the Negro's preacher, who "is looked upon not
only as the leader of the church, but also as the
leader of the race," according to the Rev. Beall, is
to give an answer, he must first seek for the causes
of race prejudice and consequent oppression.
Eancipation for the Negro did not come in 1863.,
Social and cultural isolation and a psychological
abnormality of the white race, self-nurtured for
generations, have ably buttressed the primary trag-
edy of his economic desolation as tenant farrmer
and mill hand. Science is unequivocal in its as-
sertion that the Negro does not lack the physical
and mental potentialities of other races. But it is
equally true, in the field of economics, that the
labor of the Negro can be had more cheaply than
that of any other American, and that a crushed
and impoverished black race is the most profitable.
If the church is sincere in its desire to help the
Negro it must recognize that it must take sides
with him in his economic struggles. It must help
him to secure better wages, better hours, the lift-
ing of a crushing debt burden, attainment of civil
rights, and tolerable working conditions. The fu-
ture can hold something for him, but if the. lead-
ers of his race are content to see him destitute
and despised, then, indeed, there is "no answer" -
at least from his Christian church.
"How," Said
The Indiai ...
(With apologies to ourselves)
B LEAKLY the newly-graduated col-
lege man raised his chin from the
curb to stare at the cigar-store Indian standing
before him. "How" said the Indian.
"Damned if I know," replied the exceedingly
pale face. "But I got my sheepskin, and rose to
the occasion just the way I always have on the way
through college - went out and got drunk."

Not A Member
To the Editor:
It is due to an unfortunate misstatement in The
Daily that so much consternation has been caused
among the members of Alpha Chi Omega social
sorority. A few days ago an article appeared
on the front page of The Daily describing Florence
Haxton Britton's work and mentioning that she
was a member of Alpha Chi Omega. Immediately
an indignant Alpha Chi alumna suggested that
Mrs. Britton be run out of town. Then an Alpha
Chi Omega undergraduate charged the indignant
alumna withbeing afraid of the truth. All of this
could have been avoided.
If the members of Alpha Chi Omega will go
through their alumnae files, they will find no Flor-
ence Haxton Britton listed. Mrs. Britton is not
an Alpha Chi Omega but a Chi Omega. On the
morning on which the misstatement first oc-
curred, a member of Chi Omega 'phoned a cor-
rection into The Daily office. This correction
has never been published.
It is unfortunate that a paper of The Daily's na-
tional ranking should be so careless in regard to
the material it prints and so slovenly in making
the corrections that are called to its attention.
-Member of Chi Omega.
Two blunders
To the Editor:
The nobility of purpose of the anti-Nazi propa-
gandists is unquestionable. The wisdom of the
