O BSERVERS of foreign affairs are reporting that Europe is breathing more lightly today than for many months, be- cause of the quieting effect Britain's rearmament program has had upon Hitler especially, but Mussolini too. Complementary tidings come back from the East, with Walter Duranty reporting that Japan would hardly dare to attack Russia today; from Ethiopia, which may keep Mussolini busy for some time; and from Washington which expects the enactment of neutrality legislation soon. In an optimistic story by the New York Times' Frederick T. Birchall from London there are two paragraphs which bring the reader back to real- ity and to pessimism, because they suggest how ironically inadequate and superficial British re- armament is asa basis for peace. First, Birchall writes that "Eow fast the* British.preparations are going on is illustrated by Sir John Simon's unexpected announcement il the House of Commons that a single day's pro- duction of gas-masks had reached a total of 100,- 000. Reports from the aircraft industry, from armament factories and for other test centers are growing better daily. So there is reason for British optimism." "Yet optimism has its bounds," Birchall says later. "None of the important issues out of which a war might be expected to develop has beenI settled." The experience of 1914 should have shown that armaments are no guarantee of peace. British armament cannot be expected to alter the fundamental foreign policies of Germany to any great degree, because Hitler's policies have not been directed at Britain. Instead he has sought to gain her neutrality or friendship toward his other adventures. Britain agreed to his rearmament, to the abrogation of collective peace agreements, and her timid response toward his enterprises in Spain have served to encourage rather than to deter him. Whether or not one accepts the thesis that an imposing British military array would not only postpone her entrance to a European war, but would- prevent it, the armament program cannot be interpreted as having pacific effect be- yond British shores. What has so long been ur- gently needed, the participation of Great Britain in collective peace action, has not come. In- stead it appears that Britain's committment to rearmament is meant to take the place of collec- tive security, and that the Baldwin government is staking its hopes on the possibility that it will be able to keep out of war, and the others may shift for themselves. And so Hitler may be expected to fix his eyes more firmly than ever on the East, from which they have strayed but momentarily in unsuccess- ful colonial demands. And Britain, with $7.- 500,000 worth of anxiety about her coasts and empire, seems little disposed to extend her con- cern further.

Why Pay Class Dues? To the Editor: We admire the interest which prompted R.H.N. to write his letter. We might say we welcome this opportunity of making plain to the mem- bers of the senior class the reasons for class dues. Although we commend R.H.N.'s concern "with the important things of college life," we also recognize the necessity of maintaining a sound financial organization. This is accomplished by the payment of class dues. The fund that these dues make possible has a definite purpose-to maintain class contacts after graduation. This is achieved by sending literature to the alumni of the respective classes, and organizing class reunions, thus binding to- gether the members of each class so that they may continue to function as a unit. To alleviate R.H.N.'s doubts as to the legiti- macy of the collection, may he be advised that it is authorized by the assistant dean of men, Walter B. Rea, auditor of student accounts. Dean Rea checks and audits all money collected; the money, after collection, passes to the custody of the Alumni Association, directed by Mr. T. Hawley Tapping. This procedure is not neces- sary, but has been the custom in previous years, so that legitimate expenditures would be facili- tated. The permanent class treasurer expands these funds in advice and in conjunction with Mr. Tapping. Surplus funds from class functions, such as J-Hop, are turned over to designated University authorities for worthy objectives, among which are the Union dormitories, hospital funds, stu- dent good will fund, fresh air camp, and various charity drives. We, as duly elected officers of the senior class, have been authorized to enforce payment of senior dues. By virtue of this authority we are empowered to use reasonable methods of effec- tuating collection of class dues from any recal- citrant members of the class. We urge the dis- charging of this obligation by each and every member of the senior class, because it is unfair to those members who do discharge this small financial obligation to carry along those, who although able, refuse to pay their proportionate part. We believe that the great majority, if not all, of those who will be graduated this June do de- sire to keep alive some small contact with Mich- igan after they have left Ann Arbor. It is only by the payment of dues that this contact-as by letters from the Class Officers Council of the Alumni Association-can be maintained. Those of the Class of '37 who do want to continue this relationship with the University will undoubtedly understand the necessity for this minimum fee. -Senior Class Officers, per Arnold Gross, Treas. The Constitutional Situation To the Editor: Unfortunately I came away from Dean Bates' lecture on the President and the Supreme Court with a much confused notion of the supposed in- tricacies in the nature of the President's recom- mendation for reforming the Supreme Court. The most startling idea that struck me was that no one who has not spent some years in the study of the Constitution and constitutional law may give a logical and anywhere correct com- mentary. Forgetting for the moment that many who know the constitutional field have both logical and correct appraisals (on ne side or the other!), may we not suggest that the question of Supreme Court reform transcends not only poli- tics but also learning? I was going to say that the quality, quantity, and the intensity of craving for economic security are the ultimate deter- minants of individuals' opinions the one way or the other. But I won't. Certain other strange ideas were sounded. For example, that the President's proposal is an un- constitutional method of achieving the reform. Perhaps this was a slip,,-but it certainly was em- phasized. I remember when Candidate Landon said that Roosevelt had unconstitutionally ob- tained his power. Candidate Landon said that he would get his power constitutionally-through an amendment! Or this: That by adopting the President's proposal, the fundamental structure of the Con- stitution would be weakened. The setting of a "packing" precedent was implied here. Certainly, the very next Congress may adopt different legis- lation. But Dean Bates did not mention that the adoption of this proposal did not invalidate nor forestall the proposal of those who advocate the really and truly constitutional method of amendment. Perhaps two or three or four years is a "hell" of a long time for those millions of men, mothers, sweethearts, and children who earn their bread above starvation by the sweat of their brow. Don't we think so? Gosh, we ought to. We ought to be taught to, too. This should be one of the fundamentals of good citizenship. , Without further ado, let us agree to the fol- lowing: 1. That "packing may well be a two-edged sword." 2. But also, that: "The history of the Su- preme Court is full of cases in which Presidents appointed men to the bench in the hope that they would give effect to a certain point of view. Such efforts were almost always disap41 pointing in their results. In virtually every case the justice so appointed failed to do his "duty" in- this regard and settled down to be a judge and not a partisan. 3. Next: "We are under a Constitution, but the Constittition is what the judges say it is." BENEATH **** ****** IT ALL « -By Bonth Wi "lias WHEN THE PHONE RANG in the Delta Gam- ma house during Hell Week the other day, Betty Young picked up the receiver and was greeted by a masculine voice which asked for Alberta Wood, frosh frolic committee woman. Betty replied firmly that pledges were not allowed to answer phone calls during the pre- initiation period. When the voice explaine' that the matter was urgent, Miss Young got up on her high horse and began to get flippant. The gentleman was apparently duly impressed with the significance of the occasion and when about to hang up added as an afterthought, "What if I were to tell you this was Dean Bur- sley calling?" "Don't be childish." "What if it were Dan Rea?" "Please stop wastin'g my time." The whole thing was forgotten until later in the day when Betty dropped into Burr Patts to see Ruth Ann Oaks. The first thing Ruth Ann wanted to know was: "Which Delta Gamma was so nasty to Dean Rea when he called the Delta Gamma house this afternoon.' He was trying to find out about chaperones for the Frosh Frolic." CONGRATULATIONS to Harriet (Shacky) Shackleton on her selection as Pan-Hellenic head. She has the ideal temperament for the job-shouldn't take things too seriously . . . When Jimmy Stuart, little blond haired Scotch- man of the Sigma Nu house, wants to bowl, he doesn't fool. Caught down on the Campus in a pair of leather shoes, Jimmy couldn't be both- ered about going home, so he, stepped into Van Boven's and charged a pair of rubber soled jobs which would serve him well enough for the afternoon . . . When Gil Tilles was intervieing his new printer last week, Bill Reed, Free Press correspondent, got hold of five little kids and with the aid of some careful schooling and five nickels got them to rush in and clamber all over the Garg mentor with "C'mon pappa, C'mon home now, mummy's waitin' dinner" . . . This home now, mummy's waitin' dinner" . .. Ty Car- lisle, Phi Delta Phi barrister and Michigan pub- licity agent for the Dartmouth Winter Carnival, is an "acordeen' manipulator of no little ability. . * * * * UP IN MINNEAPOLIS, where spring is still a long way off, is a gent named Milt Woodard who as sports editor of the Minnesota Daily produces one of the finest college columns in the countrya Not only is Milt good, but he's as close to being impartial as any loyal Gopher could be in these days of mighty Minnesota football, basketbal. and hockey teams. It was Woodard who wrote the story of the second Michigan-Minnesota hockey game last Friday night, and it was he who called the Wol- verines' Vic Heyliger the- greatest forward to face the Norsemen all year in a schedule which in- cluded games with Dartmouth, Alaska, and Man- itoba. Here in Ann Arbor every one is willing to concede that Vic is the top collegiate puckster in the country, but for Woodard to name him as the outstanding forward of the year was really something. The Minnesota Daily of Thursday which carried the account of the' third clash of the series which Michigan dropped 3-1, called Heyliger the goat of the game and put him on the pan in a terrible roasting. Woodard covered the final game himself and apparently- was completely convinced of the Beaver's ability-which leaves Milt's subordinate, who gave Victor such a ribbing, in a very em- barrassing position. All of which goes to prove what kind of an egg Milt is. Besides being a sports scribe of no mean ability, he is known to have proof read this col-! umnist's inferior football stories, to have sat in a! Chicago orange juice palace with a bottle of gin! after the Northwestern game, and to continually use poor Latin in referring to his Minnesotas as Triumphus de Magnem Decemn. At any rate, one swell guy. ADD BENEATH IT ALL: At the banquet hon- oring, Hunk Anderson, new Michigan line coach, the conversation was all of Michigan's brilliant cage triumph over Purdue. After the banquet the inimitable Harvey Patton, now snooping for the Detroit News, remarked to Cappy Cappon? "You know, Coach, if it weren't for your team, they wouldn't have anything to talk about" . . . Jane Bierly can't understand why even more people don't attend the Union Sunday supper sessions. "Why you can eat just as much as you want," Jane explained. "Last Sunday my Arnold ate four pork chops, and it's only 50 cents . . the demands of the 20th century. In this case we may attempt to solve both problems by clar- ifying amendments to .the Constitution. This will not only modernize the Constitution, but it will also narrow the field of judicial review by sharp- ening the vague clauses of the Constitution under which the Supreme Court is now engaged,~ almost of necessity, in the work of national policy determination." 5. So, although we do not question the net advisability of adopting clarifying amendments to the Constitution (especially on such a graceful or disgraceful issue as child labor; or freedom of contract; or due process), we ought, if we are at all realistic, to recognize that old man time has a strong tendency to chat like an old woman, when a Constitutional amendment which on the face of it, without question or doubt, scratches certain more or less ignominious vested inter- ests. 6. Therefore, let us send Ernity as a van* MUSIC New Composer's Recital Recital of vocal compositions by Richard Bennett. Student Recital Ser- ies: Composition classes of the Univer- sity School of Music. Soloists: Virleen Morns, soprano; Marguerite Creighton and Hope Eddy, contraltos; Maurice Ge- row, tenor; Frederic Shaffmaster, bari- tone; Richard Bennett, pianist; Mar- ian Marshall, dancer. By JAMES DOLL AFTER THE RECITAL ofRichard Bennett's vocal compositions at the League on Monday evening, one could not help wishing that there were prizes for musical composition similar to the Hopwood Awards for literature. Judging by this recital and by the interest and enthusiasm shown by the audience the composer would seem to be a logical winner of such an award. Although the program was not of uniform excellence a fair judgment of the composer's abilities should be based on the high point. It should be kept in mind that there are diffi- culties in any program devoted to the works of a single composer and that in this case it was further limited to vocal compositions. The first numberRex Henricus, is an adaptation of the modern idiom of the style of the 15th century with- out losing any of the feeling of the words. In passing from the sturdi- ness of this number to the next group one may realize the variety of Ben- nett's compositions. This group, set to translations from Confucius, is rather a set of duets for voice and piano with a fine relation between the two. The group is uniformly con- ceived with great delicacy and charm. Each bit related closely to the rest. One of the most ambitious compo- sitions on the program was Sea Sor- row for soprano, contralto, and dance time, with piano accompaniment, From the point of view of the com- position there was an excellent re- lation between the two voices to each other and to the piano. But it seemed unfitted for dance. It would have been impossible for the dancer to have had much variety in the chore- ograquaphy and to have kept to the spirit of the music. As Doris Hum- phrey has said, the human ear be- ing less sensitive than the eye, is able to tolerate more repetition than the eye. So movement must be more varied than, a series of musical phrases. This composition is quite able to stand on the merits of the music alone without the movement to integrate it. It has sincerity, a quiet monotony with, however, no lack of interest. Dirge, for piano and dancer, al- though better adapted to the modern dance than Sea Sorrow, would also have been better-at least at this recital-as a piano solo. As such it would be complete and satisfactory. It has emotion, climaxes, but never sensationalism for its own sake. Whereas Bennett's piano seemed in-. definite in many of the numbers (due perhaps to a nervousness that was understandable), he was forceful and commanding here. Miss Marshall's dancing is graceful and easy with many lovely bits of movement. It was interesting to see composi- tions with a great deal of humor, the two settings to German poems, Bar- barossa and MeinrVaterland. Senti mentality seemed to intrude unneces- sarily only at one point, in the Scotch Song; but this may have been somewhat due to the interpretation. One of the most interesting num- bers, both from the point of view of the composer and the singing of Marguerite Creighton, was Sea Fever. It has dash and vigor and is thor- oughly delightful. Here as in the rest of the program there was no sensationalism, no precocious orig- inality, no labored striving for ef- fect. He is not afraid to borrow from the past but always applies his own. coloring to these borrowings. Interest was naturally in the com-! positions rather than the perform-I ances. But it is imperative to men- tion Frederic Shaffmaster's definit- eness and authority in Rex Henricus, Virleen Morns' fine feeling for the delicacy of The Morning Glory, Hope Eddy's flair for the lilting line of Barbarossa, Marguerite Creighton 's fine singing in all her numbers. Court Reform Is Denounced ByVandenburg WASHINGTON, March 2.-1P)- Sen. Arthur H. Vandenberg of Mich- igan, a leader in the Senate's regular Republican wing, swung into the battle against the Roosevelt Court Reorganization Bill tonight. He de- nounced the proposal as "a device that can choke the life ouf of free American institutions." His radio address (over NBC) came at the close of a day which saw Sen. Marvel M. Logan (D.-Ky.) endorse the presidential measure and Rep. Hatton W. Sumners (D.-Tex.) as- sert, in the House, that the way is open for members of the Supreme Bench to retire and thus be "coop- erating with their government." Aside from brief, informal state- ment to reporters, the Vandenberg address was the first statement of position to emanate from the regular DAILY OFFICIAL BULLETIN Publication In the Bulletin is constructive notice to all members of the University.
