THE FORUM
Law School Vs. Neal
To the Editor:
Mr. Fred Neal, in an article in Wednesday's
Daily dealing with the proposed reform of the
Supreme Court, included jne by implication
among those inthe Law Faculty who are oppos-
ing the President's plan. Not that it matters
much but just to keep the record straight I wish
to make it clear that I do not share the alarm
felt by those of our number who have announced
themselves as against the President's proposal.
Incidentally I am curious to know the method
used by Mr. Neal in peeping behind the curtain
of the election booth to determine just how the
members of our faculty voted in the November
election. I am tempted to think that the Daily
Assistant Editor is almost wrong in at least one
instance, because one member of the faculty
whom Mr. Neal pigeon-holed so neatly almost
voted for Roosevelt. He told me so.
-Hobart Coffey.
A V iolation Of Confidence
To the Editor:
I want to enter a vigorous protest regarding
the breach of faith just committed by one of
your reporters-Mr. Fred Warner Neal. Last
week he approached me for an interview about
the pending proposal to add to the membership
of the Supreme Court. On the distinct under-
standing that I was to see the write-up before
publication, I gave him certain materials, includ-
ing a letter which had been sent to Senator
Ashurst. He submitted a draft of his report
of our interview from which I deleted substan-
tial portions. These did not correctly represelt
my views and, so far as they were acceptable,
they were not views which I wanted to express
publicly. Mr. Neal promised to redraft his article
and allow me to see it again. This he did. Some
of the objectionable portions were still in the re-
draft. I cut them out and the interview ap-
peared last Saturday, in the form in which I had
approved it.
But on Wednesday of this week in another ar-
ticle, dealing with the subject of the Supreme
Court proposal, Mr. Neal included all ofuthe
material which I had stricken out. He quoted
me as saying all of the things to which I had
objected. The points on which I was quoted
were not so very important in themselves. But
I do regard the publication of them as a gross
violation of confidence and contrary to all good
standards of newspaper practice. Mr. Neal has
informed me that this happened by mistake in
the office. Even if this is the case, it is the sort
of mistake which ought not to happen. Very na-
turally I shall refuse henceforth to be interviewed
on any subject by a reporter from The Daily,
unless it is made clear by The Daily that it re-
pudiates such practices. I have no doubt that
many of my colleagues on the faculty will adopt
the same attitude.
-Prof. Burke Sbartel
In Reply
(EDTOR'S NOTE: The Daily deeply regrets the
inclusion of Professor Shartel's personal beliefs.
It has always been and always will be the policy
of The Daily to respect confidences which are re-
vealed to members of The Daily staff. An erplana-
tory note by Mr. Neal follows):
It is extremely regrettable that Professor Shar-
tel should have placed on the article referred to
the interpretation he did. If a confidence were
broken, it was wholly unintentional.
As the editors' note above it indicated, the
article was a summary and analysis of the points
of view expressed regarding the President's plan
to increase the membership of the Supreme
Court. It was particularly concerned with in-
terviews with members of the faculty that had
appeared the preceding week an interview with
Professor Shartel among them. Such an article
it seems clear, necessitates a considerable amount
of interpretation and opinion.
Professor. Shartel's plan for compulsory re-
tirement of Supreme Court justices, it seems
equally clear, would work out to force the resig-
nation of certain members of the Court. That
part of the article which said "Professor Shartel
thinks" his plan would have worked out in a
certain manner was not meant to have been
interpreted as saying that he expressed himself
as having those beliefs.
It is true, however, that the inclusion of the
word "apparently," i.e., "Professor Shartel ap-
parently thinks . . . ," would have made th'e
meaning more clear.
The Daily appreciates Professor Shartel's will-
ingness to be interviewed on a topic of such vital
importance as the President's Supreme Court
proposal. If he must think that I am guilty
of such a gross violation of newspaper ethics, I
hope that he and other readers of this paper will
think more charitably of other members of our
staff.
As to Professor Coffey, he was not in my mind
at the time that I wrote the article to which he
refers.
-Fred Warner Neal.
BENEATH ****
******~ IT ALL
on--By Bonth Williams
COLLEGE STUDENTS, university professors,
and that great bulk of American people who
furnish us with both and term themselves the
"upper middle class" are in my opinion, the
least understanding of people outside their own
social class.
They refer to all persons in factories and fill-
ing stations, mines and construction gangs,
sewers and soda fountains as the "lower class."
Collectively they treat them as a group whose
actions are unexplainable and condemn them
to the bottom of the social scale.
This outburst because for the thousandth time
I have heard someone recount his experience
with one kind of factory worker or another. As
usual he explained that "the fellows weren't so
bad" and acted as if nobody would believe him.
Middle class dawdlers, professing a deep and
significant interest in "labor" thought they
knew just what the factory worker believed and
what he wanted, yet they treated every man that
works with his hands, whether he was an expert
machinist at $2 an hour or a sweeper at $18 a
week, in exactly the same way.
Now they know better, some better, and they
will keep on learning in what will probably be
one of the most costly educational campaigns
in the history of industry.
Two summers on a furnace have given me
enough of an insight into factories and condi-
tions to realize that strife will continue as long
as the average middle-class person believes the
industrial problem can be solved by studying
"labor" as if it were a queer species of the race
put up in a giant test tube.
The only difference between a factory
worker and a typical so called "middle class"
American is that in the factory worker you
will find less sham, less hypocrisy, and less
cheap subterfuge.
Away from the environs of the shop,
young fellows are transformed into the kind
of people you see every day in busses and
barber shops. They play golf, they swim,
they fish, they drink beer, and they ride in
automobiles-almost like real human beings,
THE POINT that I am interested in driving
home is that these factory workers eat and
sleep and think and love, not like a great in-
tangible mass called "labor," but rather like you
and me.
They are not any queerer, man for man than
the frequenters of the movies or the ball parks.
They are the people who support the movies and
the ball teams, and they are the people who get
the most out of them, not because they are
any smarter than any other class, but because
they are not spoiled by cynicism or super-
suavity.
Still, if you were to tell a college girl in a
tight fitting ; red sweater, that the decently-
dressed ordinary individual sitting next to her at
the Michigan worked all day stripped to the waist
with sweat pouring off his body, she'd . . . God
knows what she would do.
The ordinary shop workers are sincere, they
are honest, and they are happy. They lead nor-
mal lives adjusted to livable incomes, and they
prosper and rear families in comparative con-
tentment.
What else has life to offer? They appreciate
the pleasures of living unhampered by farce and
unfettered by middle class convention. They
are the real America and as long as America
has a class like them there is little reason to
fear either serious uprising or drastic dictator
ships.
As Others See It
Three 'Rahs For Michigan
(From The St. Louis Post-Dispatch)
THE CAMERA presents a girl student, "one of
the 10 most beautiful co-eds at University, of
Michigan," who did NOT compete in the "Big
Ten Beauty Contest," at Northwestern. Michigan,
her Dean of Women explains, does not sanction
beauty contests.
Good for Michigan. There are institutions,
if that word may be atrociously misused, where
the beauty contest, properly enough, is the cal-
endar's ranking ceremonial. For example, the
storied halls of Hollywood's kindergarten. Per-
haps, too, the tableau may becomingly occupy a
niche in the economy of fashion. But it just does
not belong in the atmosphere of higher learning.
Pinch-hitting for Emily Post in this instancet
we are confident the official scorer will credit
us with whamming the apple over the fence.
there are some of us who can see how religion
is related to the mechanical, the sociological,
the physiological, the hygienic, and what have
you. There are a few of us left, I dare say,
who consider religion as essential to an organic
view of life and an organic view of life essential
to religion. The attempt of President Ruthven
to bring religion into a more vital relationship
with students on the campus is only a reflec-
tion of the growing interest in religion every-
where. If this attempt fails to develop into more
than a discussion group with little refreshing
insight it will not be because Christianity is a
"stinking -corpse" but because we who call our-
selves Christian deserve to rot.

MUSIC
Peer Gynt And (ieg
By WILLIAM J. LICITENWANGER
O THE THEATRE-GOER, the cur-
rent production of Peer Gynt by
the Tatterman Marionettes affords
the opportunity of seeing given in
perhaps the ideal manner, one of the
most significant but infrequently per-
formed of Ibsen's plays. From a pure-
ly musical standpoint, the production
offers an opportunity which is equal-
ly rare in the playing, by the Univer-
sity Symphony Orchestra, of the more
important of the musical numbers
composed by Edvard Grieg as inci-
dental music to the drama. Not that
the music itself is unknown-in the
matter of frequency of performance
Grieg's music has fared much bet-
ter than Ibsen's play. As "Peer Gynt
Suite No. 1," the pieces entitled
"Morning Moods," "Ase's Death," An-
itra's Dance," and "In the Hall of the
Mountain King" have become the
property of a wide musical public;
and with the four movements of Suite
No. 11, they constitute perhaps the
best, and certainly the best known,
of Grieg's compositions.
But, although detachment from the
stage for concert purposes brings mu-
sic of this type greater recognition
and appreciation, it also causes it to
lose something of its own peculiar
beauty and significance. In the case
of the Peer Gynt music this is espe-
cially true, for the reason that this
music was composed, at the request
of the dramatist, as a vital element
of the original stage production-
and not merely affixed to some sub-
sequent production, as was the case
with the Egmont music of Beethoven
or the Midsummer Night's Dream of
Mendlessohn. Ibsen himself outlined
the plan of the musical score and
specified in a general way the char-
acter of the various numbers. Work-
ing from these suggestions, and from
the more potent implications of the
poem itself, Grieg composed a num-
ber of highly effective pieces of mu-
sic which aid greatly in intensifyig
the poetic and dramatic qualities of
the play. Following its premiere in
Christiana in 1876, the production en-
joyed a success to which the fantas-
tic and unwieldy drama might never
have attained without the unifying
and intensifying support of the mu-
sic. Because of the lack of universal
interest in the poem and the difficul-
ties in staging it, Peer Gynt is not
often performed outside of Scandi-
navia, and therefore Grieg's music is
known almost entirely through the
two orchestral suites and several
songs arranged for concert perform-
ance by the composer. To hear this
music in its direct relationship to the
drama is a privilege.
The musical score composed by
Grieg comprises, in all, 22 numbers,
many of which are only brief inter-
ludes or fragments of song. In rear-
ranging the score for use in the pres-
ent production only 10, the larger and
more important, numbers have been
retained. In addition to the four
pieces of the First Suite, listed above,
these include "Ingrid's Lament,"
which precedes Act II; the oriental-
colored "Abrabian Dance" which im-
mediately precedes Anitra's more in-
timate and seductive one; the tem-
pestuous "Peer Gynt's Homecoming,"
denoting as prelude to the last act,
the wrecking of Peer's ship on his
native coast; tdhe song of the middle-
aged Solvejg in which she reaffirms
her love for and faith in her wander-
ing lover; the country dance played
by a peasant fiddler for the wedding
festivities in the first act; and the
final, tenderly sorrowful "Cradle
Song" of Solvejg which brings the
drama to its close.
