There were unconfirmed reports that the Turkish President whom Parliament named Ataturk-"Father of the Turks"-had left a political testament to guide his successor in his own rigid doctrine of Westerniza- tion and nationalism. / No one expected Turkey's new lead- ership to turn in the immediate future from the domestic foreign balance which Ataturk achieved for this na- tion, strategicallly situated between the East and the West. Borrowed Before Illness Before Ataturk became gravely ill in mid-October he was borrowing money for Turkey with little discrim- ination from both Britain and Ger- many, although his early struggle for power was tinged' with bitter hatred For 'the influence of both. The British and German foreign offices were known to have keen in- terest in his successor and the future course of Turkey. The President of the National As-! sembly,'Abdul Halik Renda, assumed the interim Presidency upon the passing of the ashen-faced "gray wolf." A Governmnt ,proclamation announced convocation of the assem- bly to elect a new Chief Executive. probably tomuorrow. Inou Likely Successor General Ismet Inonu, known as the "military bookkeeper," premier for 13 of the 15 years that Ataturk headed the state, was the most likely choice. A parliamentary group of the major- ity party decided to support Inonu,) apparently assuring his election. Ataturk once said of Inonu, "he is my conscience-he is always on the alert and finds out what is wrong and criticizes me." Day and night eight physicians had helped Ataturk fight his illness in the great alabaster palace of Dolma Bagtche on the Bosphorus from which Ataturk had ejected the last Sultan of the old Ottoman Empire. But the rugged spirit of this man who had always lived as he liked- hard and fast-failed him in the sec- ond crisis of two months. He died after 12 hours of coma at 9:05 a.m. (2:05 a.m., EkS.T.) of cirrhosis of the liver. Pershing Asks Reinforcements Adequate Army And Navy Is Urged By General WASHINGTON, Nov. 10- k)m - General John J. Pershing counselled the nation today, 20 years after he led the American armies to victory in the World War, to take "prompt and rigorous action" to reinforce its de- fenses. "The situation in the world today is as menacing as at any critical time in history," the gray, but erect, com- mander of the A.E.F. said in an Arm- istice Day statement. "Lest there be visited upon us the recent experience of England and France," he urged an "adequate," thoroughly trained and equipped army, supported by a mobilized in- dustry "We are the natural protectors of the freedom of this hemisphere, and we can not escape our obligation," he declared; Pershing's pronouncement; a rare expression of his views on public af- fairs, came on the eve of a nation- wide observance of a day of peace which is overshadowed this year by reminders of war.

The literature award went to Mrs. Buck for the novel on Chinese life, one of her several novels dealing with the China she camp to know as the daughter of missionary parents. Observers commented on the fact that "The Good Earth" was published in 1931 and Nobel Prizes usually are restricted to works published in the year preceding each award. "The , Good Earth" also won the 1932 Pulit- zer Prize.i Mrs. Buck, who now lives at Greati Neck, N,. Y., was born in 1892 at Hillsboro, W. Va. She is the third, American to win the Nobel Literature award. The others were Sinclair Lew- is in 1930 and Eugene O'Neill in 1936.

New Species Of Snake Named After Ruthven A new species of garter snake "thamnophis ruthveni," has been named in honor of President Ruth- ven. This was revealed in one of seven research papers published recently by the Museum of Zoology. Norman Hartweg and James A. Oliver, who wrote this particular paper on three newly-discovered snakes from the Pacific slope, said this honor was bestowed on President Ruthven be- cause of his contributions to the knowledge of systematics. William Henry Burt, in another of the papers has reported on the first specimens of a dwarf race of spotted skunk to reach an American museum. Mr. Burt did not name them after anyone. Prosperity Seen Election Resul In Wall Street FDR's Conf erenees Bring Predictions Of A New National Economic Plan NEW YORK, Nov. 10-0P-Stimu- lation of private industry-particu- larly heavy goods-coupled with major reductions in relief spending, is expected by some leading figures in the financial and industrial com- munity as a sequel to the election. Private and extended cnversations during the past six weeks between President Roosevelt and some busi- ness leaders have led these Wall Street sources to forecast a new phase of national economic policy for the final half of the President's second term. Fully recognizing that character- istics of the new economic plan may be altered before its delivery to the nation, they said they discerned some of its principal features to be: 1. A long range heavy industry recovery program under the guise of national defense, which Wall Street- ers have urged as likely to be more enduring that the short-lived recovery cycles depending on WPA and other{ efforts to stimulate consumers goods. 2. A drive to get 80 per cent or GOP Demands Roosevelt Veer Toward Right Proninent New Dealers Hold 'Liberal Policies' Were Not Repudiated IRepublican Gains May Stall Congress Prominent Republicans, flushed by their Party's victories at the polls, appeared last night to be getting ready to serve a virtual ultimatum on President Roosevelt in some such words as these: "Veer to the right, or face two years of stalemate in Congress!" They expressed confidene that, combined with Democrats critical of many Roosevelt policies, they could block the President if he insisted on following a "leftward" course. On the other hand, prominent New Dealers were declaring that the elec- tion was not a repudiation of Presi- dent Roosevelt's "liberal policies." Secretary of the Interior Ickes spoke of the possibility of Mr. Roosevelt be- ing drafted for a third term drive in the interests of continuing the New Deal. Meanwhile returns from Tuesday's balloting were all but complete. They showed that 81 Republican votes had been added to that Party's roster in the House, and eight in the Senate. One House election remained in doubt. , In the Indiana Senatorial race, which was so close that it was decided only'yesterday afternoon, Sen. Fred- erick Van Nuys, Democrat, finally beat Raymond E. Willis. In Iowa, scene of another nip-and-tuck con- test, Sen. Guy M. Gillette, Democrat, was the apparent winner over former Sen. Lester Dickinson, Republican. In all, but without counting the uncertain elections, the Republican Party held 170 places in the House, out of a total membership of 435 and 23 seats in the Senate of a total of 96. Thus a coalition of 48 anti- New Deal Democrats with the Repub- lican membership would give such forces a majority. On some past issues. many more than 48 Democrats have deserted the Administration. In the Senate, the Republicans would have to pick up 26 Democratic votes to assume command.g Dead Men Tell No Tales -But Sometimes Vote PENN YAN, N. Y., Nov. 10-(AP)- A dead man's vote was counted in last Tuesday's Yates County Returns, Election Commissioner Fred Rogers said tonight. The vote was the absentee ballot nailed by Elnathan Meade from Battle Creek, Mich., before he died Monday. Meade, 93-year-old Civil War veter- an, was for years doorkeeper of the President's Gallery' in the House of Representatives. He claimed nearby Middlesex as his home town.

Hillman said his Executive Com-' mittee decided to petition Elmer F. Andrews, Administrator of the new Federal Wage and Hour Law, to ap- point a committee before which the Union could present its demands that the clothing workers' minimum pay of 25 'cents an hour be boosted to 40 cents.I Hillman said his Union has more than 250,000 members in 42 statesI and that such a wage increase would1 affect at least 50,000 more persons. The clothing workers group was' one of the first arriving here for the first constitutional convention of the Committee for Industrial Organiza- tion, which opens Monday with about 500 delegates expected. John L. Lewis, chairman of the CIO, and other leaders of the 46 af- filiated unions and organizing com- mittees, are to start working on an agenda for the Convention tomorrow. Lewis arrived here tonight and de- clined to comment on the report of the International Ladies Garment Workers Union's committee report blaming him for preventing a re- newal of peace conferences with the AFL. "I just arrived and am cleaning' up," the CIO chieftain said. "I haven't anything to say until to-1 morrow." , The Garment Workers report, is- sued today in Washington and sub- mitted to the Union's Executive' Board, asserted Lewis' position andl unity proposals he outlined made their efforts to bring about peace "fruitless." Insurgents Hal t Loyalist Drive Reinforced Army Checks Segre River Offensive ' HENDAYE, France (at the Spanish) frontier), Nov. 10.-(P)-The Span- ish Insurgent command reported to-I night that its newly reinforced army on the 4Segre River front had halted the Government's four-day-old of-, fensive. Government dispatches, by report- ing no new gains, indicated the drive was meeting strong resistance. Earlier Government advices said Lerida was being encircled in an expansion oft the strong foothold west of the SegreI in southern Catalonia. The Government's front on ,thel west bank of the Ebro which a week ago was said to have been reduced to a width of 25 miles was reported now to be only about 10 miles wide. The Insurgents said they were pushing north from Venta de Los Camposines toward Asco, the last im- portant town held by the Govern- ment on the west bank. General Motors Corp., said there is a better demand than a year ago, and "while it is too early to measure its depth, present indications are favor- able." J. R. Davis, general sales managerl of Ford Motor Co., said Ford antici- pated "an increase of 50 per cent" in sales of its 1939dmodels, compared with the 1938 model year. Alvan McCauley, president of the Automobile Manufacturers Associa- tion, and of Packard Motor Car Co., declared "public response to the 1939 new model automobiles has been en- thusiastic, buying has exceeded our expectations, and business should be further accelerated by public first- hand study of the new cars at the automobile show."

Millions of dollars worth of Jewis property was destroyed by angr crowds. Jewish stores were lootet Synagogues were burned, dynamite or damaged in a dozen cities.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 10--(4)-The newest compilations of Tuesday's election results only serve to empha- size, in the opinion of most analysts, the magnitude of the reverses suf- ered by the New Deal. The turnovers of offices fell short of a political revolution only because of the stupendous Congressional majorities the Democrats accumulat- ed between 1930 and 1938. In almost any other election year back to dimly recalled times, such a sweep as the Republicans achieved last Tuesday would have meant actual transfer of party control of either House or Sen- ate. Had that happened, President Roosevelt would have been heading back to Washington to prepare for the next Congress in circumstances strikingly similar to the experience of his only two Democratic predeces- sors in the White House since the would leave the Senate still Demo- ' I ul *Zs u4, IW.L aterUoUn, i a Budget Of Student In Ann Arbor Relatively Low, Figures Reveal 3ratic. Yet the nose count of party, strength in the new Congress is only part of the political story. It doesI not take account of the opposition President Roosevelt has encountered from members of his own party. That opposition found its leader- ship and chief spokesmen among Democrats from the North and the West; but the core of its strength lay among southern Democrats. It was first disclosed in the Senate fightI over the Roosevelt proposal to re- make the Supreme Court and thus clear the way for the far-reaching program of permanent economic and social changes he planned. It was as) sharply emphasized in the intra-party Democratic fighting over government reorganization, tax policy and the wage-hour bill. It was even more dramatically involved in Mr. Roose- velt's futile nurge warfare against WASHINGTON, Nov. 13-P)-- President Roosevelt called on the nation tonight to -help finance "ever increasing" demands of the Red Cross.

By JIM FRANKEL The opinion has long been preva--I lent on the Michigan campus that I living expenses in Ann Arbor are, extraordinarily high and that towns- people charge students outrageous prices. This belief appears to be practically: without foundation upon an examina-' tion of the budgets furnished by the iarious schools in their pamphlets of general information. Confining the comparison to the Big Ten where con- ditions most nearly approximate those here, Ann Arbor is found to allow a relatively inexpensive budget. Michigan's budget for living neces- sities is $545 for residents and $585 for non-residents, while the Univer- the possibility that the accommoda-] tions vary greatly in value received. Michigan, Northwestern, Chicago,: and Wisconsin all quote $250 as the7 annual board bill. The other schoolsr run very close to this figure and Ohio State is again lowest with $180. y There are many complaints about the cost of books here being exorbi- tant, but the Chicago student has to count on paying about $60 for his' texts and the Wisconsin student $50, while the Michigan text-book bill averages about $30. The other schools in the Big Ten are no .ower than Michigan. Laundry prices are another item that receives more than its share of abuse. The $35 that Michigan stu- dents exnend is very modest when La'w Review Is Out Today Articles Oi Wage Law And Hines Case Featured An article on the procedure in dis- missing the Hines trial in New York last summer by Prof. John B.
