O0UT OF THE MUDDLE created by Friday night's riot one preemi- nent question faces the student body: "How long are students going to be suckers?" There may be no apparent relation bet-een police action Friday and the obnoxious attitude of Ann Arbor merchants, the nauseating tenacity of landladies. But there is a deep relationship that has as its basis a resolve to "keep the stu- dents in their place." And the methods used make it a place hard to live in. Let us discuss cases in point. Begin with the police. They are called in when students become too tough in manifesting their dislike of the townspeople. At these times they do what the town expects of them-"put the students in their place." In fairness to the police It must be admitted they have no other course; if they acted according to the dictates of their own conscience their handling of students would be normal and generally acceptable-if they act- ed as they wished, we believe, they would no longer be on the Ann Arbor police department. They have treated students kindly many times. So they must be looked upon as instruments. Admittedly their course of action is often un- wise. The use of tear gas was unjustifiable and merely riled the student body further. Their use of tear gas, if at all, should have been preceded by a warning. There were several in- juries, the most serious to a policeman. The police are just as angry about that as students would be if one of their number faced an opera- tion. Students should remember that they caused upwards of $500 damage in the riot and that only a few people are going to be held responsible for this damage. The police should handle students more in- telligently; they do not show intelligence when they begin jostling students. But they are agents. So it is to their employers that we must direct our action. The Daily has printed stories proving unsan- itary conditions in some Ann Arbor restaurants. Those restaurant owners who serve food with little regard for sanitation are out for money- and at the price of student health, in rank arrogance to those who are their livelihood. The Common Council of Ann Arbor two nights ago voted unanimously for an investigation of these conditions. We are a little cynical. Will the Council throw politics out the window, make stringent regulations and enforce them? Students are entitled to the assurance of sani- tation. In the meantime we urge students to demand clean silverware, to send improperly cooked meat back to the kitchen. a . . A Daily reporter entered a local book store to buy a book required for an English course. He was charged four dollars. He found "Price: $3.00" printed in the jacket. Upon complaint he was told "it was a mistake" and was charged three dollars. About 200 copies of the book had already been sold for four dollars each, he was merchant to give this assurance. We want to be treated by merchants only as we would in our home cities. We are scapegoats in Ann Arbor. * * * * By the way, 75 cents is tops for cleaning and pressing a suit in other cities. Do you like to lay out more for the same thing just because you live in Ann Arbor? And our landladies. In addition to paying $5 a weekhfor andismal room, we are many times given heat and lighting, sometimes even hot water, begrudgingly. Our escape lies in the dormitory movement. Cooperate to the fullest extent with the Uni- versity in its efforts to build dormitories. These are some of the things that make us resentful of the town of Ann Arbor. Friday night's affair was merely a manifestation of the town's attitude. We hope students will for- get police and strike where the trouble breeds. Any complaints made by students will be in- vestigated fully by The Daily. More Adequate Descriptions.. T HE UNIVERSITY catalogue of classes, describing them, and giv- ing the hours and names of those that teach them has frequently been found inadequate by the student body. Because of the need for brev- ity, classes are usually described in a sketchy manner and it is impossible to describe the teacher and the methods that he employs. As a result of these shortcomings, students often en- roll in courses that they would not have taken had they known more about them or the man teaching them. On the other hand, students are sometimes unable to find the subject they want because the catalogue has been unable to describe it satisfactorily, and courses that might prove valuable to some are overlooked. Campus gossip and the counsel of advisors tend to supply this information that the cata- logue does not offer, but a more reliable and effi- .cient method has been adopted in some schools. At Dartmouth, the student paper has taken up this academic burden. Several times a week The Dartmouth prints comments on classes, discuss- ing the lecture topics, the reading and the teaching technique. These are written by a student familiar with the department about which he is writing and they are printed with the understanding that they are the comments of one man: Economics, sociology, history, philosophy and English have been treated most frequently, and the result has created discussion among stu- dents and professors alike. Interest has been aroused in the curriculum among the student body, and courses are being chosen more intel- ligently, because the student has more informa- tion upon which to base his choice. In the faculty there have been improvements, too. The professor that was in a rut and teaching the same material intthe same way each year has been goaded into activity. At DePauw the student paper went so far as to print the com- plete text of one professor's hour lecture. Need- less to remark, this tended to inspire better or- ganization of lecture notes among the faculty. Another use to which The Dartmouth puts its classroom comments was the announcement to the student body of forthcoming lectures in various courses that might be of interest. For example, during the past winter when interest ran high on the labor situation, the paper told its readers of lectures that would be given in the near future in economics courses dealing with labor. Students not enrolled were permitted to visit the class. The same has been done with classes in literature and music. Because of the large classes here, It is ques- tionable if this arrangement could be made permitting students to visit classes. But the amplification of the University catalogue via The Daily, with the accompanying benefits to stu- dents and faculty ought to be considered. IT TO ME By Heywood Broun THERE can be no question that Hugo Black started behind the eight ball, but I think his radio speech gained him enough clearance to give him a fair shot. The fact that he joined the Klan and retained membership for four years constitutes a blemish on his record. But in spite of popular miscon- ception to the contrary, few Justices of the Su- preme Court swing up to the High Bench as immaculate as Little Eva on the way to Heaven. It is a good rule in politics, and in life in gen- eral, to judge a man from where he stands today and not on the basis of what he did or thought once a Socialist, and John L. Lewis was an ten years ago. After all, Walter Lippmann was ardent Republican. Hugo Black might have been better advised if he had spoken much earlier. I mean before he took his vacation abroad. On the other hand, it now seems to me that he was justified in avoiding any statement to the press while he was in Europe. It came more effectively upon his home coming. I also think he was wise in using the radio. His hint that some of the papers might not print what he said I can hardly support. The press of America, with very few exceptions, is against him, and American newspapers are not always 100 per cent fair in their news treatment of public figures to whom they are opposed. But there are spots where a full text just has to be rendered. * * * The Ring of Sincerity On the other hand, the radio was helpful to Black, because his statement sounded a good deal better than it read. This was no prose masterpiece and there were inconsistencies. The end was too abrupt. At least one listener was waiting for at least a sentence or so of answer to the almost obligatory question:-"But why did you join the Klan if you are against intoler- ance?" When read, the tribute to the Bill of Rights may seem no more than traditional lip service, but Black in speaking put it over. Unless the gentleman is the greatest actor in the world this dramatic reviewer gives it as his opinion that this was an utterly sincere expression. It rang true. Naturally there will be much comment back and forth abouth the statement, but I think that Hugo Black has a right now to sit out the rest of the discussion. * . * Beyond His Right Moreover, I think it is preposterous to say that President Roosevelt must make a statement. Indeed, I think it would be highly improper for him to do so, and it is utterly inconsistent for "defenders of the Constitution, to urge any such thing. I believe in adding additional justices to the court, but I would certainly oppose any suggestion that in certain cases a President of the United States may call upon a duly ap- pointed Justice to resign. That would be an overextension of the executive power. I do not think that Mr. Roosevelt should make any comment of either censure or praise, unless the notion is that he is to go all the way down the line and also tell the general public what he thinks of Butler and McReynolds. The new man on the bench does not start from scratch. He is under a handicap, but judging from his past performances in the Sen- ate I feel confident that in the days to come he can make it up. Mr. Justice Black, be seated.

To the Editor: It has been suggested that the picture pub- lished in Tuesday's Iaily was one taken by a photographer for Panorama, that the negative was taken from the Panorama offices, a print made and the print turned over to Prosecutor Rapp and/or the Ann Arbor city police. It has been further suggested that this negative was taken and the subsequent print turned over to Rapp and or the police by- a. Clinton B. Conger, of Ann Arbor, and b. Clayton Hepler, also of Ann Arbor. It has been further suggested that due to the activities of Conger and Hepler, Richard Eubank faces a sentence, if found guilty of the charges filed against him, of ten years in the peniten- tiary for endeavoring to protect himself and the girl with him from a brutal police attack on two peaceful citizens. Would The Daily check the authenticity of these three reports? -Justicia. EDITOR'S NOTE: Editors of Panorama have stated that the negative of the picture published in yesterday's Daily was taken from their offices without their knowledge or consent by the above named persons, that a print was made of it and given to Prosecutor Albert Rapp. According to the best infor- mation of The Daily, decision to arrest Rich- ard G.
