Begins Pump riming To End Slump Lending - Spending Attack Begun Before Congress Has Finished New Bill Faculty Women To Face Danger On Stormy Colorado For Science 4'i WPA Increases Jobs By 30,000 Per Week WASHINGTON, June 4.-(P-()-The Administration has started its lend. ing-spending attack on the depres. sion although Congress still has a week's work to do on the $3,723,000,- 000 bill that will supply most of the ammunition. Officials disclosed today that the WPA was using funds already or hand to create additional work relie jobs at the rate of approximately 30,- 000 a week. If Congress finally approves the $1,425,000,000 which the lending- spending bill now carries for WPA they said, they expect an average of1 2,800,000 persons to be given work re- lief employment in the next sever months. This could compare with an enrollment of 2,679,656 on May 28 and an officially-expected winter pea1t of 3,000,000 or more. Most of the additional jobs pro- vided since May 28, it was said, were in large industrial communities where the unemployment situation was most acute. Secretary' of Agriculture Henry A Wallace also has taken steps to put the 4dministration's relief program into effect without waiting for Con- gress to finish action on the big lend- ing-spending bill. ' He directed the Federal Surplus Commodities Corporation yesterday .to canvass needs for food and cloth- Sing among persons on relief. This type of .relief will be tem- porary, it was declared, and will be concentrated in distressed commu- nities typified recently by Chicago aid Cleveland. The Reconstruction Finance Cor- poration already is receiving applica- tions for long-term loans for business and industry, and officials of the Public Works Administration aie get- ting ready to start new PWA projects swiftly as so6n as the pending Ap- propriation Bill becomes law.

Of Michigan Scientists In PerilousExpedition By STAN SWINTON In the interests of science, two Michigan faculty-women will this summer attempt to traverse 650 tur- bulent, rapids-filled miles of Colo- rado River-a feat never before ac- complished by a member of their sex. Hemmed in by canyon walls which at times will stretch a mile above them, Dr. Elzada Clover, an instruc- tor in 'the botany department, and Miss Lois Jotter, Grad., an assistant in the same department, will face over 300 rapids and travel down wa- ter which sometimes attains a speed of 30 miles an hour. Their reward will come in the form of botanical specimens collected for the Univer- sity. Another Michigan member of te party of seven will be Eugene Atkin- son,. Grad., a botany department as- sistant who will collect zoological spe- cimens. Norman Nevills, of Mexican Hat, Utah, will lead the' expedition which also bears his name. Other members are a newsreel cameraman, a U.S. Geological Survey representa- tive and a San Francisco artist. Possibilties of discovering a relic flora combined with hopes of find- ing important cacti and other plants provide the goal which causes the two women to enter a region hereto- fore unknown botanically and zoolo- Dorothy Sands' Sow To Open HereTonight 'Styles In Acting' rought Here For The First Time. By Noted Impersonator Dorothy Sands' one-woman show, "Styles In Acting," will make its first Ann Arbor appearance at 8 p.m. to- day in the Lydia Mendelssohn Theatre. "Styles in Acting" is the enacted story of the English and American' theatre from the time of the Renais- sance when women were first permit- ted to appear on the stage down to the present. Miss Sands demonstrates how the great actresses of all time have costumed and played their most famous roles. She will show the styles in costuming, theatres, audi- ences and acting in the various periods. The program consists of "Milla- mant" in "The Way of the World" by William Congreve, "Almahilde" in "The Conquest of Granada" by John Dryden, "Madame Vestris" in the song "Buy A Broom," "Nellie Hatha- way" in "The Silver King" by Henry Arthur Jones, "Candida" in "Candi- da" by George Bernard Shaw, "Annie Christie" as Pauline Lord would play it, and the sleep walking scence of Lady Macbeth from Shakespeare's "Macbeth" as it would be portrayed by Haidee Wright, Ethel Barrymore and Mae West. The Mendelssohn box office will be open from 10 a.m. until 6 p.m. today to receive orders for tonight's per- formance, which is a one night stand. Tuesday night will see the opening of the fourth play of the present sea- son when Doris Dalton will open, starring in Terrence Rattigan's mod- ern comedy, "French Without Tears." gically although it has been visited by several geological expeditions. Because earlier groups found heavy boats more easily destroyed, the in- trepid seven will embark at Green River, Utah, in three 15-foot boats especially constructed for the jour- ney. These have five-foot water- tight compartments at each end for food, equipment and specimans. In the center is a five-foot "cock-pit" for passengers. By early warnings, one-way radio transmission will safe-guard the group from swirling masses of flood water which sometimes sweeps down the canyons, boxing up and smash- ing boats which may be in their path. When rapids must be shot, the ex- pedtion's craft will go stern first with orasman rowing as hard as they can against the current. Sterns are especially designed to ride over rocks and obstructions. Whenever possible and necessary, boats will be portaged or "lined" around rapids. The latter is accom- plished by attaching ropes to the boats and "lowering" the craft from shore. However, many of the worst rapids can't be lined because of tow- ering rock walls bordering the water. 8upplies will be replenished at Lee's Ferry, Ariz., and at Bright Angel trail in, theGrand Canyon. The journey is being undertaken because a pack trip originally plan- ned by Dr. Clover was not possible due to the lack of feed for pack ani- _______(Continued on Page '7) L Canton Bombed Again Japs* L os ses Severe City Suffers Sixth Air Raid In Eight Days; Foreign Protests Terined Futile CANTON, June 4.-,4P)-Japanese air raiders continued their heavy bombings of this industrial city today with two devastating attacks.; Officials feared casualties would ex- ceed .those of a week ago. when they estimated 750 persons were killed and 1,350 wounded. Today's raids marked the sixth day of attacks on Canton in the last eight days. Only on Wednesday and Thurs- day were there respites. (In Tokyo, Domei, Japanese News Agency, said a "well-informed source" -the usual designation for official opinion-indicated British and Amer- ican denunciations of air attacks on civilians would not alter Japanese tactics). About 40 warplanes took part in the first raid, appearing over the city shortly after 10 a.m. and unloading their expolsive cargoes for 35 minutes before heavy clouds and rain ended the attack. Many persons were crushed be- neath falling masonry when build- ings were wrecked by three missiles in Winghon Road, Canton's main street. Saichuen, where electric power and waterworks are situated, also was bombed.-, Hospitals were filled to overflow- ing and doctors scarcely had time to attend to one lot of wounded before another arrived. Sirens for the second raid sounded while rescue work was in progress for victims of the first. Thirty-five planes swept over the city in the sec- ond attack. Egg-Throwing Newark Vets Rout Thomas New Jersey Talk Stopped By Ex-Soldiers Crying 'We Don't Want Reds' Socialist Battles HagueSpeech Ban NEWARK, N.J., June 4.-(P)-So- cialist Leader Norman Thomas was showered with rotten egges and howled down, tonight by 100 men, most of them wearing veterans over- seas caps, when he attempted to speak at Military Park. There were flurries of spectators' fists and police nightsticks as friends helped Thomas, his face smeared with egg yolks, to a park bench. A temporary stand erected for his speech was splintered. Others in the crowd of 500 Thom- as sympathizers were hit with eggs. As Thomas was introduced by Clara Handelman, Essex County secretary of the Socialist party, and stepped forward to speak, shouting and flag- waving veterans, accompanied by a 25-piece band, marched through the Thomas crowd and a melee broke out. Mounted policemen, patrolmen and detectives helped Thomas supporters form a protective circle around him. The veterans marched a short dis- tance away and then returned to the ruins of the stand to listen to more band music. "We want Americanism-we don't want Reds," the veterans shouted. Standing on the bench, Thomas raised his hand continually and pleaded in vain to be allowed to speak. "I still. have my permit and I would like to sayma few words," he cried into the din. More eggs and cucumbers were thrown at him. After a half hour, Deputy Police Chief Phillip Sebold, one of those in the circle guarding the former so- cialist candidate f o r president, jumped up beside him and an- nounced: "On my advice this meet- ing is disbanded." Six mounted policemen surrounded Thomas as he walked with friends to socialist headquarters 400 yards away. A delegation of representatives of a number of veterans organizations sought in vain today to have a city permit for the Thomas meeting re- scinded on the ground it would "in- cite riot and create bloodshed and disorder." Student Attends Youth__Meeting China Sends Tsu Ying-Hu As Its Representative Tsu Ying-Hu, graduate student in the School of Education will repre- sent the Chinese government at the International Youth Conference to be held Aug. 1 at Poughkeepsie, N.Y., for a nine-day period. Mr. Hu is a principal of a Shanghai school, but came here for graduate study in edu- cation. He has translated several works from English into Chinese, among which are a work on elemen- tary education, and a life of Baden- Powell, noted Boy Scout leader. The Conference will consist of dis- cussions of international affairs by delegations of youths from more than 50 countries. The purpose of the movement is to develop mutual understanding between the youth of different races, different religions, and different opinions in the further- ance of world peace. Study and discussion will be con- ducted under four main commissions, "The Political Organization for Peace," "The Economic Organiza- tion for Peace," "The Economic and Cultural Status of Youth and Its Re- lations to Peace," and "The Ethical and Philosophical Bases of Peace."

Michigan - Ontario Historians To Hold University Program Local 'Clairvoyants' Experiment With Extra-Sensory Card Tests By ELIZABETH LUCKHAM International interest aroused in scientific circles by the work of Dr. J. B. Rhine in extra-sensory percep- tion is having its local manifestationsI in tests conducted by Dr. Thomas Greville of the mathematics depart- ment and a group of interested per- sons in the Parapsychology Club. Experiments attempted here fol- low the plan laid by Dr. Rhine, pi- oneer in this phase of psychological work, and are progressing satisfac- torily, Dr. Greville reported yester- day. The primary motivation for the work started by Dr. Rhine and be- ing continued here is to find some' reasonably accurate test for deter- mining whether thoughts can be transmitted by means other than the recognized senses. Previous to Dr. Rhine's experiements there had been which bear one of five simple sym- bols, is used for the tests. The sub- ject attempts to guess the order in which the cards appear in the deck, and this procedure is repeated many times before the test is considered complete and accurate. If a person attains a sufficiently high average on a large number of decks it is con- sidered highly probable that he pos- sesses the telepathic quality. The work in Ann Arbor, Dr. Gre- ville explained, consists of conducting these card tests in an effort to find people exhibiting the telepathic fac- ulty. The persons participating in the work here are eager to have any interested members of the faculty, student body and townspeople take the preliminary tests. The work of the recently-formed Parasychology Club is to promote in- terest and extend research in the Fear Foreign Militarists May Keep Grip On Spain When War Is Finished GIBRALTAR, June 4.---)-Re- ports of bitterness against Italian and German influence in Insurgent Spain were brought to Gibraltar to- night by visitors from Insurgent ter- ritory. The unrest was said to have de- veloped over fears of Insurgent of- ficers that Italians and Germans in- tended to maintain a military hold on the country when the civil war ends. Insurgent officers arriving here to buy medical stores for Seville hos- pitals themselves confirmed the re- ports. "The dictatorial manner, of the Italian and German officers is un- bearable," one officer said. Franco Sues U. S.

The convention has been convoked by his- torical organizations throughout Michigan and Ontario to trace the growth of the Detroit river area from the founding of Detroit in 1701 to the present day. While in Detroit they will be taken around that city's thriving sectors and will be shown just where there were located such places as Dode mead Tavern, one of Detroit's lead- ing inns before and after 1800, and the whipping post where petty crim- inals were publicly flogged during the period of 1818-1831, and the In- dian Council House in the British period which was also used following this Michigan-Ontario historical con- vention. At 8 a.m. Saturday, Prof. L. O. Vander Velde, of the history depart- ment, will be chairman of a discus- sion at a breakfast conference of Michigan college and university his- tory teachers. At 12:15 p.m. Saturday, the Uni- versity's special program will be started at a luncheon in the Union. Dr. Charles A.
