FRIDAY, JAN. 28, 1938 THE MICHIGAN DAILY PAGE I Brumm Talks Before Dentist SchoolGroup~ Hits Competition, StressI On Fiiancial Rewardsj As Education Motives Education turns the individual intoI an efficient tool or machine, Prof. John L. Brumm, chairman of the journalism department, told an as-j sembly of students of the School of Dentistry yesterday when he spoke on "The Menace of Efficiency." Many people are efficient machines,. but are not rich human beings, he de- dared, unless they 'lave acquired cul- ture, learned to read good books and use imagination. The tragedy with education today, Professor BrummI said, is that it is so concerned with' competition and with teaching thel individual to earn a living. Eighty per cent of the people who are profitably employed would be happier and ac- complish more if they were engaged in other jobs, he stated.! People consider themselves skillful if they are able to do something with practiced ease, so that they won't have to give thought to doing it, he said. If they are not constantly aware of the fact, they soon sell their souls to efficiency.

Britain Rearms To Stand Firm Against Germany, Ames Claims January Month -End SALE Important savings for you in this sale of Dresses and Accessories DRESSE'S $ "~9 Michigan was rapidly digging it- self out of the snow Thursday, happy that the winter's worst storm had left little damage in its wake. The State Highway Department re-I ported that the emergency was "defi- nitely past," and that highways were almost all cleared to at least one- way traffic. However, cold weather was fore- cast for Thursday night and Friday in the lower peninsula. More snow seemed unlikely. The sole area still isolated was Munising, where roads were still blocked at the last report and tele- phone connections had not been re- sumed. Highway officials believed they would not get into the city be- fore Friday. The Newberry area, close by was still having trouble Thursday -in re- turning to "civilization," but mail was brought out by a highway snowplow Thursday to Trout Lake, and a bus with mail had entered the city from Sault Ste. Marie. The State Highway Department still sought Ito check a rumor that a baby had died of exposure in a Muni- sing hospital after being marooned oevrnight in a snowbound automobile between Seney and Munising. The reports said highway crews rescued the baby and two men and a woman. Coroner James Hodge used snow shoes and a toboggan Thursday to bring out the body of Maurice L. Allenstein, 46, of Muskegon, from a farm seven and a half miles south of Negaunee. Hodge and Allenstein shot himself through the head during a period of despondency. He was a caretaker on the farm. All through the upper peninsula welfare department agents pushed in- to isolated areas as fast as plows opened roads. They carried food and medical supplies to relieve any storm sufferers found in the back country. County, welfare, and highway of- ficials reported that little actual suf- fering was found as 'a result of the, three-day storm. New Laws Re ulate Asserts Hitler Is Sincere In Declaring Germany Wants No More War (Continued from Page 1) Herbert, which prevented them from going into action and permitted Hit- ler to continue his policy of treaty repudiaton. Many factors will tend to deter Hitler in the event that he decides he would like to lead Germany into war, the speaker said, and he pointed out as one of these the fear among the people that their cities would be destroyed as soon as war is declared. "Germany could not hope for a short campaign," he said, "and she isi not prepared for a long one. She doesn't have the food supply, and she doesn't have the gold to buy it from her neighbors."C Armament on a stupendous scale' in Britain will also tend to deter Hit- ler, Sir Herbert stated, for Great Bri- tain can outbuild Germany, because she can out-finance her. Germany knows, the speaker con- tinued, as she did not know before the last war, that if Belgium is in- vaded Britain will come to her aid. France and Britain are cooperating as never before, and Hitler will also have to take this into consideration. "Hitler will start no war against the advice of the official military staff," Sir Herbert said, "and I think that the staff is convinced that Ger- many at present does not have as good a chance for a successful war as she had in 1914."
