A Petition Against
The Hill-Sheppard Bill...
4( LUEPRINTS" for an American
U" brand of fascism are pending be-
fore the Senate and House this session in the
form of the Hill-Sheppard Bill 'which embodies
the Industrial Mobilization Plan of the War De-
partment .
The storm of protest that arose when the
Nyye Committee report exposed the military-in-
dustrial dictatorship the original Plan sought
to establish in time of war has forced its "re-
vision and its reintroduction in two identical
bills by the chairmen of the House and Senate
Military Affairs Committees..- But the revision
has been one almost entirely of phrasing; the
main threats to democracy in the bill remain
intact.
Petitions to be sent to Congress demanding the
defeat of these bills will be taken before, after,
and during the Peace Meeting Thursday morn-
ing on the mall between the School of Architec-
ture and the University High School. It is our
purpose today to discuss briefly these bills and
rip off the false slogans that hide the dangerous
features from the public eye.
The slogans are two. The first is "to take
the profits out of war." It is under these
colors that the bill masquerades in most news-
paper reports. The second is "to equalize the
burdens of war." In this role the bills pur-
port to draft capital, industry and man-power
with equal service for all should the United
states go to war.
The objections are these. The bill will be
unable to "draft" capital and industry; it will
fal to take the profits out of war; it automa-
tically permits the drafting of four million men
,by the President at the outbreak of war, regard-
less of whether the war would justify this wide-
spread conscription; it provides what would
amount to a draft of labor; it wquld scrap social
legislation; it would result in the replacement
of the Cabinet by a special "war ministry"; and
it leaves the way open for the censorship of the

press.
The bill attempts to take the profits out of
war by assessing a 95 per cent tax-on all profits
above the previous three year average. What
effect this tax would have becomes visible when
we realize that if it had been in effect in 1917
and 1918 the DuPont Company would not have
paid a penny to the government. The reason is
siriply that in the three-year periqd before
America entered the war, the DuPonts built
their production up to capacity by trading with
the belligerents in Europe. Thus when America
entered the war its average profit for the three_.
,previous years had been boosted so high that ourt
addition to the arena had little effect.
The bills provide that "Whenever Congress
shall declare war or the existence of an emer-
gency due to the imminence of war" the PredL.?
dent, without any further legislation can draft
the several millions of men between the ages of
21 and 31. Farther down in the bill it says that

yoacabre Flea
To the Editor:
I have always been of the opinion that there
is a touch of the macabre in the sight of a
flea imitating a monster, and a recent news
story in the Ann Arbor News has helped me
a great deal in the proof of this thesis. The
story wasin the April 9th issue, and the head-
line read thusly: SEVN ARRESTED IN DEM-
ONSTRATION, Students Sing Communist Song
In Labor Dispute. Aout a third of the way
down the page I read:
The trouble started when about 50 stu-
dents, including 10 women, gathered in front
of the bowling alley shortly before 7 o'clock
last night, carrying picket posters and sing-
ing the Communist Internationale.
To anyone who was there this is an obvious
distortion of fact. I am quite sure that the
Student Workers' Fedration can furnish any
interested party with enough affidavits to keep
a notary public busy for several hours-to the
effect that the Internationale was not sung,
and that, on the contrary, the following songs
were sung-"America, America," "On the Picket
Line," "Solidarity 'orever," and "The Star-
Spangled Banner. ,
It is a fundamental tactic of the Hearst press
to tag as Reds anyone whose actions they dis-
approve; we expect it from the monster, we are
annoyed at the flea. Now, of course, it is con-
ceivable that the reporter, or even the re-write
man didn't hear correctly. Maybe Mrs. Dilling
really believes Mrs. Roosevelt is a Communist.
Maybe the depression was planned in the Mos-
cow offices of the Communist Internationale.
Who knows?
It is my conviction, however, that raising the
red scare in this connection was a deliberate
attempt to prejudice the reading public against
the picketers. The bad taste in which it was
done by the Ann Arbor News is shown by the
fact that the Detroit Times reported the affair
accurately. The Ann Arbor News owes the
Student Worker's Federation an apology, which
they probably will not get.

4 Call To Liberals
To the Editor:
On Saturday afternoon a most encouraging
event took place. Abut fifty students met and
decided to form a broad progressive organization
which would aim to improve the position of the
student on the campus. But the encouraging
factor is not that a new organization is to be
formed, but that this organization seems to be
avoiding the weaknesses of similar groups in the
past.
In recent years there have been many liberal
groups functioning on the campus. They have
been of all shades of opinion and of a greatly
varied composition. However, none of them has
included more than a mere fraction of the for-
ward-looking students in the University. Each
group has been too narrow to be representative,
and the progressive movement has therefore been
of a rather haphazard nature.
In view of this, the meeting Saturday seems a
real step forward. It included members or rep-
resentatives of almost all the socially aware
groups on campus. And these people were not
merely attending another meeting; they came
with the idea of forming an organization which
woud be truy representative of the iberal tradi-
tion of Michigan. The first step toward ac-
complishing this goal has already been achieved
inasmuch as all elements were present. A pro-
gram of five main points was adopted: peace,
security, equality, academic freedom and the
broadening of student social life. In addition,
the structure of the organization is to be flexible
in order to make it thoroughly responsive to
changing needs. Throughout a serious and real-
istic approach was evident.

The group plans to have its first membership
meeting on April 27. It is inviting all those who
feel the need for such a broad organization to
attend. - Let us help so promising a group by
supporting it.
-L.S.
The People's Land
To the Editor:
The editorial in your issue of April 7th en-
titled "No Man's Land" presents the view that
because decisions of the Supreme Court of the
United States deny to both the Federal Govern-
ment and to the States the right to exercise
certain governmental powers it follows that there
exists a peculiar domain within which these
powers are to be deemed as impossible of exercise.
Therefore, it is apparently assumed that these
decisions of the Supreme Court must be deemed
as anomalous if not utterly absurd. This erron-
eous view has recently been strenuously pro-
claimed by those who desire to undermine the
Supreme Court as a co-ordinate and independent
branch of our form of government and the
ready acceptance of such view by many well-
meaning persons can only be explained by reason
of their entire disregard of Article 10 of the
Bill of Rights, which expressly provides that,
"the powers not delegated to the United States
by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to
the States are reserved to the States respectively,
or to the people." Having this provision in
mind it follows that the decision of the Supreme
Court creating what the editorial terms "No
Man's Land" means simply that the denied
governmental powers are included in those re-
served "to the people." Apcordingly the correct
term defining this domain of reserve powers is
"The People's Land." The exercise of these

4+#+ IT ALL
w u By Bonth Wlliams ---
( JELL, having missed the opening. ball game
for the first time since I was twelve years
old, I guess the next best thing is to take in
the second and hope that the Tiges can pull a
pitcher out of the bag and make it two straight
over the men from across the lake.
And speaking of baseball, yesterday was a
phenomenal record-breaker in at least one
way. Up until game time both Philadelphia
clubs were leading their respective leagues-
probably for the last time in the next ten years.
BOB EWELL and Fred DeLano who toured
the south with the Michigan ball team
throughout the spring holidays, pulled into
Charlottesville, seat of the lore steeped Univer-
sity of Virginia, ohe afternoon and sought the
Sigma Nu House.
Directed by a couple of southerners to the
'large home on the cornah' Ewell wheeled the
car up the spacious drive and ground to a halt
before a beautiful old colonial mansion.
"Some house," DeLano opined.
"Great fraternity, Sigma Nu," Bob added as,
they bounded up the front steps and into the
open door.
Within all was a drowsy darkness. The broth1
ers from afar wandered from room to room with
outstretched hands and the pass word on their
lips.
"Orderly place, must be a Southern trait, lots
of darkies," Ewell remarked. "Where the hell do
you suppose everybody is?"
DeLano was about to answer when he was
suddenly confronted by an efficient appearing
female who emerged out of the gloom.
"And what would you gentlemen be wanting?"
she almost barked as the two Michiganders
stepped back in surprise.
"We're with the Michigan ball team, we're
Sigma Nu's, and we thought we'd stop in and
pay the boys a call. I suppose they're all in
class now. Are you the house mother?"
The woman unbent slightly at this last. "No,"
she smiled slowly, I'm not the house mother, I'm
the maid, and this is the home of Mr. Newcomb,
the president of the University."
* .
THE DELTA GAMMAS promise to feature the
Michigras parade Friday afternoon with a
float which may well captivate the passers-by
into following the procession for blocks. The
idea is a ship (to get in the Delta Gamma An-
chor) fixed up with the pulchritudinest in the
House to amuse and fascinate the spectators.
Lee Bush, local wood dealer, has agreed to
donate his '29 Ford Truck for purposes of loco-
motion.
If the Hill Street girls really want to go
to town in the biggest sort of a way the
best thing they could do would be to adorn the
ship with a life size enlargement of the picture
this month's Gargoyle is running of Marion Fitz-
gerald.
Gil Tillles asked Fitz to pose for the monthly
fashion plate because, as he said, he felt guilty
about leaving her off his Ten Most Beautiful
list.
Just blind luck on Tilles' part, of course, but
the Monroe Flash's display pf one of those swag-
ger coats is the best by far ever to grace the
monthly funny book.
* *: *~ *
Few people will probably get to see the picture
of Miss Fitzgerald, however, for this month's
Gargoyle is so stupendous (it contains almost
48 pages) that little Grant Barnes decided to
sell it for a quarter.
Unfortunately, however, he failed to notify
anybody of this brain storm, not even the printer.
The results will probably be disastrous wgen
Thursday morning his corps of demon salesman
try to peddle for a quarter a book which states
in plain letters on the cover, PRICE TEN CENTS.
BENEATH IT ALL: Colonel Henoch, my handi-
capping partner is just back from Hot

Springs, Ark., where he spent a week with the
ponies at Oaklawn. The Colonel reports that he
was in fine fettle and in another two days would
have had the bookies trying to buy him off .
There is a very strong probability that when the
senior class squire their respective dates into the
Union Ballroom for the annual ball Commence-
ment Week, they'll slide into the rhythm of
Swing Vjaster Benny Goodman-in which case
each swain will have parted with some five bucks
for the privilege-Dick Trusdell, my ace con-
tributor, will write for this column his reactions
to the recent triple execution -in Chicago's
County Building in the near future. Dick was
one of a hundred privileged spectators who
watched the State take its revenge on the slay-
ers of a metropolitan policeman. The worst
thing about it was the fat man in the back
.row, according to Dick. He kept yelling to those
in front, "For Keerist sake sit down, you saw the
foist two burn" . . . Senior class leader Al Dewey
spent the week-end in the Windy City seeking
employment, but refused an offer because he
didn't want to start work until the middle of,
October. I need a long rest after my arduous
term of office," Dewey explained . . . Few people
know that Harriet Shackleton's father is an ar-
dent Beta and holds the mortgage on the sump-
tuous Beta menage at Old Purdue ... And whilet
we're in that area, I might note that The Purdue
Exponent's student scandal columnist spent half
his space refuting the charge that his column
wasn't in very, good taste at times-and proved
that Michigan did not have a very good foot-
ball team last year . . . Fred Warner Neal came
rushing into the Publications Building yesterday
with the Annaday News and the startling an-
nouncement that the Northville Bank had been
held up to the tune of ten thousand iron men.

Enated French and Russians, in grati-
tuide, would bomb German cities, and
Germany in her turn will become
strong and virile. Given enough air-
planes and enough bombs, the world
could be made a veritable Utopia in
generation.
All thisgoes to prove that would-be
reformers are stupid in their short-
sighted views of the problem. The
thing they should be doing at the
present time is agitating for another'
war, instead of against it. With the1
attendant improvement in the race,
the time will come when there are
no unfit to be eliminated, and all
wars will be unnecessary. Plainly the
reformer is working against war for
selfish reasons. He knows that he
will perhaps be weeded out by air
bomb eugenics.
