No. 56 ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN WEDNESDAY, DEC. 1, 1937 PRICE FIVE CENTS Senate Rebels At President's Plan To Slash Road Building, Backs Plan To Stimulate Business By Reducing Cost Of Home Making Roosevelt Hits At Premature Spending WASHINGTON, Nov 30 -(P)-_ Congressmen found fault with one item of President Roosevelt's pro- gram for helping business out of its slump today but made all prepara- tions for passing another quickly. Hardly hid the President asked a deep cut in road building expendi- tures than Senators Hayden and Ash- urst, Arizona Democrats, announced their opposition and Chairman Cart- wright (Dem., Okla.) of the House Roads Committee issued a sharply critical statement. Building Plan Exceptable All was well, however, with the President's proposal for reducting the cost of home building in the hope of stirring up a construction boom that would have a generally beneficial ef- fect. Hearings were begun, and the legislation was put on the list for enactment at the special session. The President's anti-depression program, as announced in recent days consists of five points: housing, gov- ernment retrenchment (to which the road building cut is related), imme- diate purchase of some $245,000,000 worth of government supplies, a re- vision of taxes and encouragement of public utility construction pro- grams. In a special message to Congress today on road building expenditures Mr. Roosevelt objected "strenuously" to the practice of incurring advance obligations for this purpose without reference to the condition of the bud- get. Are Authorized EarlyI The practice has been to make "authorizations" one to two years ahead of time for federal assistance' to the states in building secondary roads. At the beginning of each yearl the sum authorized has been appor- tioned among the states by the Sec- retary of Agriculture, tQ be followed by actual appropriations. Existing law says that on Jan. 1, Secretary Wallace must apportion to the states $214,000,000 of the 1939 au- thorization. The President asked that before that date, Congress cancel the authorization. He added a reouest that Congress limit to $125,000,000 all (Continued on Page 2) Commentator JULIEN BRYAN Bryan Lecture Wil Be Tonight Tickets Are Still Available1 For Talk About Japan A number of tickets are still avail- able for the Julien Bryan lecture at 8:15 p.m. today in Hill Auditorium, Prof. Carl G.

Mr. Bryan's lecture is the second of the present Oratorical Association Course, one previously scheduled, that of H. V. Kaltenborn, having been, indefinitely postponed because of the illness of the speaker. Tickets for the lecture today are onI sale at Wahr's Book Store on State St. Japs To Return{ American Ship Taken By 'he SHANGHAI, Dec. l.-(Wednes- day)-(P)-Diplomatic sources said today they understood Japanese offi- cials had decided to return an Amer- ican-owned steam launch seized by Japanese yesterday. American Consulate officials con- firmed Japanese assertions that Jap- anese sailors had not thrown the United States flag into the Whangpoo River when they took over the ves- -cl. It was said the flag was handed Junior Class Repoll To Be HeldToday Balloting Is From 3:30 Until 5:30 P.M.; Vote Comes After Protest Art School Juniors Will Ballot Today' A repoll will be taken of junior class literary college electors from 3:30 p.m. until 5:30 p.m. today in Room 18, Angell Hall, after the first vote of that class was thrown out by the Men's Council Nov. 16, follow- ing a protest by the Washtenaw party. Washtenaw's protest came as a counter-protest to that of the State Street party who claimed that nurses voting when the polls were held open in the evening of the election, Nov. 10, were not eligible. , Hugh Rader, '38, president of the Men's Council, declared that the eve- ning votes were invalid, and pro- claimed the State Street party elect- ed, in view of the fact it was ahead at the close of the polls at 5 p.m. With the evening's ballots, the Washtenaw party slate won the election. Following Washtenaw's protest against the casting out of ballots of ,the evening, the Men's Council met on Nov. 16, and decided that a new !election should be held today. Candidates include: for president, Bud Wells on the Washtenaw ticket and John Thompson on the State Street ticket; for vice-president, Margaret Cram on State Street and Margaret McCall on Washtenaw; for secretary, Helen Owston and Ralph Erlewine, Washtenaw and State re- spectively; and for treasurer, Wal- lace Bash, State Street, and Fred Thomson, Washtenaw. State Street's candidates for the J-Hop positions are Arthur Colman, Marcia Connell, Ted Madden, Bar- bara Heath and Betty Shaffer;rand those of Washtenaw are Marietta Killian, Joe Osburn, Jack Wilcox, Marie McElroy and Marvin Reider.

Fear Japan May P f*7* * ,J, Modest Jayvee Player Saves 2 From Death Modesty is usually a very desirabk trait, but in the case of Harry K. Mulholland, '40, a Junior Varsity football player, this trait wNs carried a little too far. He didn't consider the spectacular rescue of two drown- ing men a feat worthy of more than the most casual mention. At about 8:30 last Thursday night, Mulholland saw the automobile in front of him on the Saginaw-Bay City road skid into adeep canal lead- ing to the Saginaw River. As he reached the scene of the accident he saw that the car was almost entirely submerged and the occupants trapped. He ran to the side of the canal and saw that two men had gotten out of the automobile but were still trapped under the ice. In a style probably reminiscent of Douglas Fairbanks, he broke the ice and leaped into the water, helping the two victims of the accident to the shore. In a few minutes the state high- way patrol appeared and Mulholland was relieved of his responsibility. Without even waiting to hear the names of the men whose lives he had undoubtedly saved, he returned to his car and drove away. When questioned upon the haste of his departure, he, said, "It was cold." Mulholland's modesty was so ex- cessive that even the members 'of his own fraternity, Chi Phi, did not dis- cover his heroic action until four days after it happened. Tag Day Drive For Youngsters OpenedToday The tenth annual tag sale conduct- ed by Galens, junior and senior hon- orary medical society, will be held to- day and tomorrow on -"the campus and in the downtown district to raise money for children's workshop, Christmas party and book shelf at the University Hospital. The goal for the drive has been set at. $2,000, Roger W. Howell,, '38M, president of Galens, said last night. Last year 618 children used the work- shop on the ninth floor of the hos- pital, which amounted to approxi- mately 8,000 working hours, he stated. The workshop familiarizes them with manual training experience which they would otherwise receive at school. Funds from- the Galens tag sale enable the social service depart- ment of the hospital to provide this, instruction to the children. Many children make toys, bookends andI other articles to take home or sell.! Model Senate' Will Consider Local Issues Campus Problems Must Be Initiated As National, International Questions; Representation All That Is Unsettled A compromise move to permit dis- cussion of campus affairs by the Stu- dent Model Senate was passed yester-1 day by the executive committee after1 the body last week tabled a motion1 limiting the Senate's jurisdiction toi national and international issues. By an amendment, passed unani- mously yesterday, provision was made that "issues discussed in the Student Model Senate be initiated as national and international issues." It was left to the Senate to decide whether national and international affairs will be interpreted through local prob- lems. Motions passed by this committee are not binding upon the Senate but are merely recommendations. The. first meeting, held last week, pro-I posed that the Student Model Senate l be formed to consolidate undergrad- uate opinion. The group left as unsettled bus- iness the manner of choosing repre- sentatives to the Senate until a com- mittee had consulted with members of the faculty.

Original plans for representation 1 on the basis of states, similar to the Federal Senate, had the intention of reflecting sectional interests in the body's vote. Alternate proposals, sug- gested yesterday, would draw mem- bers from campus organizations, pro- portionally from states or propor- tionally from the schools and colleges on campus. The body also moved to get faculty opinions on the plan and to have ad-. (Continued on Page 5) Dr. Ruckmick Tells Of Movie EmotionsToday Psychologist From Iowa To Speak At 4:15 P.M. In Science Auditorium Arms Thrown Out As Parisians Fear Government Drive PARIS, Nov. 30.--(R')-Arms sei- zures in the government drive against a secret revolutionary organization accused of plotting to set up a dic- tatorship in France led to new conse- quences today. Many Parisians who kept arms as war souvenirs and others with arms supplies dropped them in streetsand parks, fearing they might be con- nected with the plot if the arms were found in their homes. A total of 576 loaded hand gre- nades was discovered lying on the grass in peaceful Bois De Boulogne, Park. Police i'imediately issued an ap- peal to Parisians to call at the nearest police station or city laboratory if, they wanted arms supplies removed, instead of dropping them in the city1 where they might be found by chil- dren. Free University Labor Conflict Rages As CIO, AFL Battle On 5 Chief Issues Three Buses Fired Upon While Strikers Consider Ultimatums From Line UAW Investigates 'Wildcat' Strikes WASHINGTON, Nov. 30.---)- The labor peace conference outlined the principal issues between the AFL and CIO under five headings today and decided to discuss them one by one. Of Civil Service Act Provisions Michigan State Also Given Exemption From New Bill By Attorney General LANSING, Nov. 30.-(/P)-An opin- ion handed down today by Attorney General Raymond W. Starr exempted employes of the University and Mich- igan State College from provisions of the State Civil Service Act. Starr said employes of the Mich- igan College of Mining and Technol- ogy, the state normal colleges and the teachers' colleges are subject to the act with the exception of presidents, deans, registrars, professors, instruc- tors, teachers, research assistants and student employes. Starr gave his opinion at the re- quest of State Civil Service Director William Brownrigg. Prof. James K. Pollock of the po- litical science department last night told the Daily that the opinion "is essentially what has been generally accepted for a long time."" Professor Pollock added that "it is the same kind of opinion that was given earlier to the Civil Service Study Commission when it made its recommendations." Professor Pollock was chairman of that body. "Despite this opinion," Starr said in an informal discussion later, "I see1 no reason why the University should not avail .itself of the facilities set up by the Civil Service Commission if the Regents desire." Starr pointed out that the Supreme Court frequently has held that the Board of Regents of the University The CIO contention that all the workers in each large industry should belong to one big union without re- gard to traditional AFL craft lines topped thelist of controversial points made public by George M. Harrison, chairman of the AFL peace commit- tee. This industrial union issue was re- sponsible for the split in the AFL ranks that led to the formation of the CIO two years ago. Other issues on the list: 1. The CIO's insistence that it remain a semi-independent agency under the AFL after peace is made. The AFL demands that the CIO be dissolved. 2. The CIO's request that the powers of the AFL executive council be curbed by amendment of the AFL constitution if peace is effected. 3. What machinery should be set up to make an agreement effective. Neither side has made public its views on this question. 4. How many votes the CIO unions would have in a joint convention that would be called to ratify any agree- ment the peace conference made. Philip Murray, chairman of the CIO peace delegation, emphasized that even an accord on those five points would not mean the end of the labor war. Other significant developments on the national labor front include: Cleveland Non-striking Greyhound drivers re- ported three buses were fired upon today as strikers considered an ulti- matum from the nine affected lines to return to work or lose their jobs.
