XLVIIL No. 22 ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN, THURSDAY, OCT. 21, 1937 PRICE FIVE CENTS Stocks Rally In Heavy Buying; StabilityUrged By Roosevelt Market Prices Advance; Previous Losses Almost CompletelyWiped Out President Demands A Firm Prosperity NEW YORK, Oct. 20 -(P)- The psychology of fear was swept out of Wall Street today by the biggest stock market advance since the first day of trading after the banking hol- iday in March, 1933. A buying power which gained new force overnight, after yesterday's clos- ing surge upward, carried prices of leading shares up $1 to $7, with oc- cassional advances of considerably more, and virtually wiped out the losses suffered in the panicky selling of Monday and early Tuesday. Not even sporadic spells of profit- selling deterred the day's rally which was the most sustained that "the street" has witnessed for some weeks. Whereas on Monday and Tuesday, trading opened with a heavy accum- ulation of selling orders, the opposite was true today and the ticker tape frequently was behind on the upswing instead of on the down. F.D.R. Asks Coordination! WASHINGTON, Oct. 20 -(P)- Federal officials who wield potent powers over the stock market heard from President Roosevelt today that the Government must perfect and co- ordinate its mechanisms for building a firm prosperity, free from violent swings into booms and depressions. The President delivered a brief ad- dress at dedicatory ceremonies for the new Federal Reserve building. Top- ranking financial officials, legislators and private bankers were among the audience. The Stock Market, which regained today some of the ground lost in recent steep plunges, drew no direct mention from Mr. Roosevelt. Neither did he refer to assertions by some business leaders that government pol- icies were responsible for the market downturns. The nation's monetary and credit machinery, the President said, "must be steadily perfected and coordinated with all other instruments of Govern- ment to promote the most productive utilization of our human and material resources. "Only in that way can our economic system and our Democratic institu- tions endure, hand in hand." At another point, the executive said banking powers have been concen- trated in the Federal Reserve Bqard "so that they can be used promptly and effectively in accordance with the changing needs of the country." 48 September Crashes Here, Survey Shows Statistics compiled for the Nation- al Safety Council by the Ann Arbor Police department show that during September there were 48 traffic ac-! cidents involving 88 cars in Ann Ar-! bor. The survey shows no fatalities for the month although there were 13 people injured. This is a decrease of two in the number of deaths from traffic accidents in September, 1936. So far this year there have been two traffic fatalities, while in a corres- ponding period in 1936 there were 10 killed. The total number of accidents has increased from 36 in September, 1936 to 48 for September of this year. Of the 88 drivers involved in these acci- dents, 55 were from Ann Arbor, seven from the metropolitan area, 21 from elsewhere in the state and four from outside Michigan. Only 11 of the 88 persons concerned in the accident were violating traffic ordinances at the time, the survey showed. No drunken drivers were in- volved in the accidents. There is more chance for an 'acci- dent between 3 and 6 p.m. in Ann Ar- bor than any other time, the report showed. 40 of the accidents took place during the day and 8 at night. The identity of the one driver in- volved in a hit-run case during the Illumination In Student Rooms Branded 'Generally Deplorable' Pledges Hear Women Once LitzenbergAsk Got C o l o r s Higher IdealsFrmGd Intervention Crisis Situation Is Largely.,Fault Of Local Householders, ProfessorHigbie Says By WILLIAM ROY SIZEMORE Lighting arrangements in the ma- jority of student rooms were brand- ed as "generally deplorable" by Prof. H. H. Higbie of the electrical en- gineering department yesterday. Although this situation, which in many cases constitutes 5 serious abuse to the eyes of student roomers, is largely the fault of householders, students, themselves, may alleviate the situation somewhat by a little in- telligent experimentation, he con- tinued. Standards for room lighting as set up by Professor Higbie include: 1. Sufficient illumination to en- able the eyes to see without eye-strain. For reading and writing, 30 or 40 foot-candles of illumination should be adequate, certainly not less than 10. 2. An even distribution of light so that tle eye is not continually forced to readjust itself as it is when it goes from a region of high bright- ness to one of low brightness. 3. Absence of direct or reflected glare resulting principally from spots of exceptionally high brightness. 4. Absence of dark or sharply out- lined shadows. Detailed technical studies of sample rooms by electrical engineer- ing students reveal that lighting fa- cilities too often fail to come up to these standards. Referring to the first requirement, the reports show that the amount of light necessary varies with the particular room. The n Averted As Fascists University's rooming contract speci- fication, which has been raised to 100 watts per student, can provide good illumination if the arrange- ments are proper, Professor Higbiej said. However, the cheap flexiblel goose-neck type of desk lamp most commonly used in the rooms may give an excessively high illumina- tion over a small part of the desk but a very inadequate illumination over the larger portion of the desk. In connection with the second requirement, one student report said, "At the working position . . . the in- tensity of the illumination varies 27i foot candles in the short space of one foot!" Investigation by another stu- dent shows that there was a varia- tion of from 41 foot-candles on one edge of a book lying flat to 7 foot candles on the adjacent page. The same reports reveal that glare is almost always present with the lighting facilities furnished in the rooms. A fairly efficient remedy for this problem is the installation of any of the illuminating engineering society study lamps, Professor Higbie said. Big Farm Loans Warned Agamst By President Roosevelt Says Draining Of Federal Revenues Might Be Too Great Fraternity Men MIUst Live Up To Their Standards, Vows, Professor Says Phi Sigma Delta Is Awarded Trophy Fraternity men should pay more attention to the standards they have set for themselves, and live up to the things they swear to when taken into a fraternity instead of speaking them and forgetting them, Prof. Karl Lit-! zenberg, of the English department, said last night, speaking before the third annual fraternity pledge ban- quet in the Union. Discussing four points: the origin of fraternities, the relation of the fraternity to the University, the re- lation of the individual to the fra- ternity and the status of the fra- ternity in the changing world, Pro- fessor Litzenberg pointed out that the relationof the University to the fra- ternity is that of father to son. Quoting from President Ruthven's attitude on fraternities expressed two years ago, he declared that frater- nities must think of raising their scholastic average above that of all men students, of maintaining good social conditions and behavior and of keeping their houses in good fi- nancial condition. "The fraternity idea is different from the dormitory or boarding house idea," Professor Litzenberg went on to sav."ti ifPrn nth NEW YORK, Oct. 20.-(AP)-A dis- tinguished scientist said tonight that chemists were trying generations ago, even as now, to get women to look . for their beauty aids in the fruits of orchard and garden rather than in the drug store. And, he added, it appeared it was a job as thankless then as now. Speaking in the centennial celebra- tion of the birth of Charles Frederick Chandler, New York's first public health chemist, Dr. Haven Emerson, director of public health of the Col- lege of Physicians and Surgeons, wondered aloud whether it was all worth while-so far as the women and their cosmetics were concerned. It happened, said Dr. Emerson, that Dr. Chandler often in the course! of his duties disclosed "fraud and! damage to health, as in his analysis of cosmetics, especially poisonous hair tonics, washes and skin restoratives, lotions, enamels and skin powders." "How modern!" he added. "How iumiliating!" "How revealing of the perpetual gullibility, the shallow emulation of those females of the species who con- tinue to act as if beauty comes from the drug store instead of the garden or the orchard, or from without in- stead of within the human economy. "As one looks about at the cada- veric finger tips, the enamelled toe- nails, the deformed eyebrows, the filled facial creases that try to re- veal character but are cheated out of it, the hectic cheek reminiscent of the fever ward of a tuberculosis hos- pital, the ill-assorted daubs of ani- line upon the lips, one wonders if it is worth the while of the Congress Meet Bri~t Recalls Volunteers BENITO MUSSOLINI Hunt For Ross AbductoIs . {r BEITOMSIN Rebels Said Near To Burning Gijon, BIARRITZ, France, Oct. 20.-(A')--I A group of Spanish Governmentl fliers who fled from Gijon today said the city was in flames and further defense against Generalissimo Fran- cisco Franco's advancing army ap- peared impossible. Anarchy was spreading, they said, with Basques and Asturians fighting each other in the streets. Food sup- plies were nearly exhausted, and only a few militiamen still were ready to hold out against the Insurgents, they added. Reports from Hendaye said Fran- co's forces were crushing all resist- ance after having occupied the cities of Villaviciosa and Infiesto, less than 12 miles from Gijon, objective of the Insurgents in the Asturian campaign. Outbreak Of Sniping Hits Holy Land; None Killed JERUSALEM, Oct. 20.-(AP)-Elu- sive snipers kept alive the wave of terrorism in the Holy Land today by a series of attacks in hallowed Biblical settings.

Count Dino Grandi, Italian am- bassador, faced with what his an- tagonists described as a "stiffening attitude" by Great Britain and France, accepted British proposals for evacuating the foreign volun- teers rather than precipitate a crisis. The action, supported by German agreement, took place in the session of the Nine-Power subcommittee of the 27-nation 'hands-off Spain" body. It delayed indefinitely both com- plete withdrawal of the volunteers and the granting of belligerent rights to the warring parties in Spain. It also facilitated adoption of a formula which will enable Great Britain and France, as well as Italy and Germany, to stave off any show- down on the Spanish problem which, informed suorces said, none wanted to face now. The proposals for withdrawing the volunteers originally were advanced y the British last July and a split occurred soon after whether evacua- tions or the question of belligerent rights should be discussed first. With their acceptance now by Italy and Germany, informed sources envisaged the procedure as follows: 1. Withdrawals to begin-probably in equal numbers from among for- eigners fighting with the Insurgents and the Government in Spain. The subcommittee will meet tomorrow afternoon to establish this point defi- nitely. 2. A .commission will go to Spain to report on the numbers of vol- unteers and a system for their evac- uation. 3. Complete evacuation to be un- dertaken. 4. An independent authority, prob- ably the Non-Intervention Commit- tee, to decide the moment when bel- ligerent rights should be granted. British officials said the entire scheme fitted into the framework of the British proposals advanced July 14. Second Issue Of Panorama Out Tomorrow Panorama is coming out tomorrow -on time, according to the editors. No broken presses or forgotten dead- lines have retarded this issue's pro- gress. The Editors say it is better than ever. George Johnson, Union doorman, has revealed what he does in his spare time away from the front door of the Union. Homecoming week-end, before and after the game, is also featured. There is a series of pictures on how to earn money compared with how to spend it. An "In Memoriam" page, dedicated to Stevens Mason, Jr., is included. Some of the restaurants figuring in the campaign being carried on by The Daily against restaurant condi- tions here have been photographed for this issue of Panorama, which is coming out tomorrow-on time, it is said. ; I Reporter Descril Of Chinese By JAMES A.
