RIO DE JANEIRO, Nov. 27.--()-
President Franklin D. Roosevelt, wel-
comed tumultously by thousands of
Brazilians as the highest emissary of
peace from their sister continent, to-
day pledged the United States against
any invasion of the "new world."
Speaking before a joint session of
the Brazilian Congress after an of-
ficial automobile cavalcade had borne
him through wildly cheering crowds,
the President declared:
"We cannot countenance aggres-
sion from wherever it may come."
President Roosevelt's address fol-
lowed tremendous ovations which
started when he debarked from the
cruiser Indianapolis in placid Rio
harbor and lasted all along the route
to the Congressional Building.
Prominent Carillonneurs To Be
Present For Baird Dedication
Many Foreign Musicians
Invited To Participate
In Ceremony
Fifty-three special invitations to
attend the dedication of the Charles
A. Baird Carillon Dec. 4 have been ex-
tended to men prominently associat-
ed with carillons and music schools in
the United States, Europe and Can-
ada, it was announced yesterday byI
Prof. Earl V. Moore of the School of
Music.
Jef Denyn, internationally-known
carillonneur, and Victor Van Geyseg-
hem, carillonneur, both of the Caril-
lon School, Malines, Belgium, have
been invited to attend the dedicatory
program in Hill Auditorium.
Canon Edmund H. Fellowes, Wind-j
sor Castle, England, has also been in-
vited to attend the program. Three
men from Canada, two associated
with the Peace Tower, Ottawa, and
one associated with the Metropolitan
Church, Toronto, have been invited.
The remaining invitations were ex-
tended within the United States.
The great majority of those ex-
tended invitations will not attend,
Professor Moore believes, because of
the great distance at which many of
them live. Probably none from for-
eign nations will attend, he said.
Wilmot F. Pratt, University caril-
lonneur, yesterday announced the
program of his recital which will fol-
low the ceremony in Hill Auditorium.
It is as follows:
"America," Carey; Hymns, "A
Mighty Fortress Is Our God," by
Luther, and "Now the Day is Over,"
by Barnaby; Variations on "Ode to
Joy," from the Ninth Symphony of
Beethoven; A Minuet by Mozart;
"Laudes atque Carmina," by Stanley;
and "Preludium for Carillon," by
Denyn.
Dr. Frank E. Robbins, assistant to
the President, said that members of
Michigamua, Druids, Vulcans, Bar-
risters, and Galens, all senior honor
societies, would serve as ushers forj
the occasion. The public is invited'

MOSCOW, Nov. 27.-()-One of
the highest Soviet prosecutors today
attacked the United States Supreme
Court, the American democracy and
Constitution before the all union
congress of Soviets called to promul-
gate the new Russian constitution by
Joseph Stalin.
A. J. Vishinsky, noted prosecutor,
who handled the case against the
now-executed counter - revolution-
aries Zinovief and Kameneff, praised
the Soviet judicial system and com-
paring it with the United States
procedure, he said:
"Our judicial system is the back-
bone of democracy. In the United
States, the Supreme Court appoint-
ed by the President is called upon
to cover up the reactionary actions
of the ruling minority.
"It was well described by Jeffer-
son who said 'the Supreme Court is
the hawk which soars over Congress
to keep the chickenyard in order.'
"In all bourgeois countries the
courts protect the moneybags and the
judges are usually rich politicians.
"The Soviet constitution is the only
true constitution in the world. The
basis of bourgeois constitutions is the
private property exploitation of man
by man."

Choice Of Judges; Bates
Heads Education Board
A committee to study proposed
changes in the method of selection of
the state judiciary was appointed yes-
terday by Roscoe O. Bonisteel of Ann
Arbor, president of the State Bar of
Michigan.
A recent poll of lawyers approved
appointment of supreme court jus-
tices and the election of circuit judges
by a three to two majority, Mr. Boni-
steel said. A majority of members
of the bar went on record as favoring
non-partisan selection of judges, he
said.
Roberts P. Hudson of Sault Ste.
Marie, former president of the State
Bar, was named chairman of the
committee.
Mr. Bonisteel also named the mem-
bers of 16 other committees for his
term in office. Dean Henry M. Bates
of the Law School was appointed
chairman of the committee on legal
education and admission to the bar.

GENEVA,
Nov. 27.-(P)-The
Spanish socialist government asked
the League of Nations today to deal
with the menace to "peace and good
will among nations" allegedly creat-
ed by Italo-German recognition of
Fascist insurgents.
Premier Francisco Largo Caballero
of the socialist cabinet appealed to
the League council to convene in
special session to determine of fi-
cially whether international peace
was menaced-acting under article
eleven of the League Covenant.
This article may be invoked to deal
with "any war or threat of war.''
The note was dispatched from
Valencia, present seat of the social-
ist government and its text was to be
published here later. The League
Council was expected to call a meet-
ing next week to consider the appeal.
Recognition of the fascist Junta
constituted a situation "affecting
international relations and menacing
peace and good will among nations,"
the Valencia communication charged.
Under article eleven of the coven-
ant, the League may concern itself
with any "war or threat of war"
whether League members are affected
or not. Germany is no longer a
member of. the Geneva body. Italy
retains membership but did not at-
tend the latest sessions because dele-
gates representing the ousted Emper-
or Haile Selassie of Ethiopia were
permitted to participate.
MADRID, Nov. 27.-(P)-Madrid
citizens dug tunnels today to speed
their flight from house to house in
the bitter siege against the capital by
Spanish Fascists.
With bare hands and what shovels
they could find, the householders
burrowed from one cellar to the next
to assure some means of exit if their
homes were demolished by bombard-
ment.
Their haste was increased by a
clear sky after two days of rain and
the renewed threat of Fascist aerial
attack.
Lack of food was becoming more
acute and most of the city was on
a vegetarian diet.

Bank of China would be reorganized

Wholesale prices have risen in
China, according to Professor Remer,
and the rise in the Chinese dollar
price of exports has been greater
'than the rise in the price of imports.
There was an immediate recovery
in China's foreign trade which has,
however, not been maintained at its
early rate, Professor Remer added.
Much of the present success and
the prospective future success of the
Chinese monetary policy depends
upon something in the way of an in-
ternational money that can be used
as a basis, Professor Remer said. "We

NEW YORK, Nov. 27.-()-The
National Interfraternity Conference
at its 28th annual meeting today
voted "cordial support" of measures
to abolish "Hell Week" and severe
initiations at colleges and universi-
ties.
The delegates adopted a resolution
urging the necessity for reform in
fraternity hazing activities "to the
end that the fraternities may there-
by be dignified both in essence and
in public estimation and better play
their part of cooperation with the
colleges in furthering their common
purposes."
The resolution commended colleges
which have taken the lead in abolish-
ing hazing and pointed out that the
greatest authority for discouraging
severe initiations lies not with the na-
tional fraternities but with the col-
leges where local chapters are main-
tained.
Greek letter men surpassed their
non-fraternity brothers in scholastic
work in colleges and universities

last year, the conference was told by
