2,000 Gargoyles
Returned, But It's
No Gag; Ask Tilles
An 8 a.m. telephone call yesterday
led Gilbert E. Tilles, '37, editor of
the Gargoyle, to a field near the Mi-
lan turnoff and his 2,000 missing
Centennial issues.
Tilles told that story about 9:30
a.m. yesterday.
Tilles denied that it was a publicity
stunt.
Bonth Williams, who satisfied his
twisted nature by playing tricks on
the Gargoyle editor, is still under
suspicion, Tilles said.
Tilles denied that it was a pub-
licity stunt.
"The fellow who called me talked
in a drawl, as though he were dis-.
guising his voice," he said.
Tilles denied that it was a publicity
stunt.
Fred Warner Neal, '37, who is Pre-
posterous Person in the current Gar-
goyle, is also under suspicion, the
editor said.
Tilles denied that it was a publicity
stunt.

licity stunt.

TORONTO, Ont., April 22.-(I)-
An agreement to end the General
Motors strike at Oshawa, now in its
third week, was reached tonight in
the office of Premier Mitchell Hep-
burn.
If the 3,700 strikers ratify its terms,
agreed to by representatives of both
the company and the workers, they
will go back to work Monday morn-
ing.
C. H. Millard, local president of
the United Automobile Workers of
America Union, took the agreement
to Oshawa for presentation to the
Union stewards tonight and to a
striker's meeting at 10 o'clock to-I
morrow.
J. L. Cohen, Unin counsel, called
the agreement "eminently satisfac-
tory."
Although its terms were not made
public, the agreement generally was
'believed to call for a wage increase,
a cut in hours and other changes in
working conditions.
A reliable source reported hourly
rates of less than 55 cents would be
increased seven cents, rates of more
than 55 cents would be raised five
cents, the work week cut to 44 hours
and the efficiency system modified.
Union recognition was the prin-
cipal issue in the strike.
The men walked out of the Oshawa
plant +after General Motors of Can-
ada, Ltd., refused to recognize the
Union, an affiliate of John L. Lewis'
Cmmittee for Industrial Organiza-
tion, as their collective bargaining
agent.
Millard and Cohen appeared at to-
day's peace conference as "repre-
sentatives of the Oshawa workers."
They also had to state they did not
represent the C.I.O. and were not
under instructions from the organi-
zation before Premier Hepburn re-
ceived them..
General Motors officials had insist-
ed any settlement of the strike must
come in Premier Hepburn's office.

Green Orders
To Fight Lewis
Major Conference Called'
For Cincinnati May 18;
No Expulsion Planned
WASHINGTON, April 22.-(A})-
President William Green announced
tonight he was calling a major con-
ference of A.F. of L. leaders in Cin-
cinnati May 18 to arrange to fight
John L. Lewis in a membership drive.
National and international union
presidents affiliated with the Ameri-
can Federation of Labor will attend
the conference, Green said.
He denounced Lewis and his com-
mittee for industrial organization,
but indicated that he would not call
a special Federation convention to
expel him-as some labor observers
had expected.
Such a move, he contended, would
merely "add dignity" to a group of'
rebels. Lewis' action in setting up
the C.I.O. was "steeped in the cess-
pool of illegality and irresponsibility,"
Green declared.
Lewis set up the committee to bring
workers in each mass production in-
dustry into one big union. Craft
unionists in the A.F. of L. suspended
him and allied unions from member-
ship.
Green's statement tonight said that
failure to close the breach between
the C.I.O. and the A.F. of L., "Is to
be attributed not to the American
Federation of Labor but to those re-
sponsible for having set in motion a
group activity clothed in garments of
good faith but inspired by a mind and
a heart bent upon destruction of the
organized labor movement of Ameri-
ca."
"The underlying procedure of those
in control of the C.I.O. is to confuse
and divide the forces of labor and
assume arbitrary control."

Calling Kipk l e
'Incomp etent'
Free Press Reports Are
False, Asserts Assistant
Athletic Director
Detroit Free Press reports that he
had called Harry G. Kipke "incom-
petent" as a football coach were
summarily denied late last night by
Franklin C. Cappon, assistant ath-
letic director and assistant line coach.
The Free Press said that "Cappon
also charged that Wolverine foot-
ball would not be completely re-
habilitated unless a coach other than
Kipke was placed in charge."
Cappon was quoted as saying, "I'm
tired of keeping my mouth shut. The
gist of the whole thing, and the cause
of all our troubles is that Kipke
doesn't know enough about foot-
ball."
Rockwell Takes 'Pictures
Tod Rockwell, Free Press sports
writer, was here yesterday taking
pictures of the coaching staff, Cap-
pon said, and had engaged him in
conversation.
"I did say that Michigan State had
beaten us on sucker plays," he said,
"and made the one criticism that
'when I was hurt last year Harvey
Emory had the guards charging,
which is just what they want for
suckers.
'Trouble-Maker'
"That's the only thing I said that
could be construed as criticism," he
said. "Kipke didn't come into the
conversation."
Kipke said last night that "he is
entirely satisfied with the coaching
staff."
The Free Press quoted Cappon as
saying, "I was told some time ago to
keep my mouth shut and that's what
I've been doing, and I'm tired of the
reaction."
"Evidently Rockwell is bound to
stir up trouble at Michigan," Cappon
said. "He started the fireworks last
December and is evidently not sat-
isfied with the way things work and
is again trying to stir up trouble."

James Miner Hails
Neutrality Laws
Resolution Administered
As Part Of Nation-Wide
Peace Agitation
Fifteen hundred ,University of
Michigan students assembled yester-
day to demonstrate their "deter-
mined" opposition to war and mili-
tarism.
During the day a total of three
thousands signatures were affixed to
three anti-war petitions to be sent
to Congressional committees and to
the President.
The 1,500 students assembled
braved a stiff wind in order to dem -
)nstrate for peace.
Prof. Maynard C.- Krueger of the
University of Chicago economics de-
partment declared to the meeting
that the peace movement must en-
list the support of labor and must
educate peace-advocates to "have
the guts to say 'no' to the war-
makers when it is no longer respect-
able to talk peace."
Approve Resolution
A resolution was approved by the
anti-war protestants stating, "We,
here assembled in protest against war
and militarism, do hereby resolve
that we are part of a nation-wide
movement of students dedicated to
work towards thle eradication of war
in the modern world; that we here
express our complete sympathy and
unity with the students on other
American campuses who are today
likewise demons i . .pn..
sition to war." The resolution was
administered by Marshall .D. Shul-
man, '37, associate editor cvf The
Daily.
James S. Miner, '38L, defended
neutrality legislation as a "stop-gap"
to keep the country out of war and
William Centner, '38, a Varsity de-
bater, presented the case for world
cooperation which would "limit arm-
aments and avert wars."
Orr Presides
Juiiant Orr, '37, former president
of the Peace Council, who announced
his resignation Wednesday and ap-
pointed Clarence E. Kresin, '38, tem-
porary chairman, presided at the
demonstration.
The peace movement in 1914,
stronger than ever before Professor
Krueger stated, melted at the sight
of war because very few people un-
derstood that economic considera
tions were inextricably tied up with
war. "You must continue to oppose
military and naval appropriations
and the use of America's armed and
economic forces for the subjugation
of colonials in an imperialistic race
that brings syphilis and not civiliza-
tion to colonials; you must oppose
nationalism and exaggerated patrio-
tism, if you want to keep the masses
from climbing aboard the militaristic
bandwagon when war is declared,"
he stated.
The three petitions, circulated
throughout the campus yesterday,
read:
"We, the undersigned, consider the
Hill-Sheppard Bill, which embodies
the Industrial Mobilization Plan of
the .War Department, as an inade-
quate means of taking the profits out
of war and deplore it as a menace
to civil liberties."
We, the undersigned, approved the
Nye-Kvale bill for the abolition of
compulsory military training in land
grant colleges."
"We, the undersigned, disapprove
of military and naval expenditures in
excess of the requirements of na-
tional defense and we recommend

the United States cannot engage in

the citizens of the country.

Prof. Riegel Holds Trade Unions
Needed For Employer Bargaining
EDITOR'S NOTE: This is the first of
three articles on trade associations and
labor, the public and industry.
By JACK DAVIS
Collective bargaining in many in-
dustries where small manufacturers
oppose strong unions can only be car-
ried on with any degree of equality
by business men organized in trade
associations, declared Prof. John W.
Riegel of the business administration
school, yesterday.
While the Wagner Labor Relations
Act may bring about this condition in
other industries it did not create it
for it has been present in some in-
dustries for many years, he con-
tinued. "The soft coal industry
each individual producer approach
the unions with anything like equal
bargaining power," he said.
Similar conditions, he stated, ob-
tain in many other industries of
which the building trade, the print-
ing and the wholesale clothing man-
ufacturers are examples.
Besides uniting its members, the
association should be the organiza-
tion to uncover and present the facts
upon which collective bargaining is
based and to serve as a clearing
house for information on labor dis-
putes, he said.
There is, however, a great deal
more to industrial relations which
