Carvalho Tells
Of Government
In 'New' Brazil
Lauds New Constitution
And Elective System
In Last Lecture Here
The New Brazilian State was dis-
cussed yesterday afternoon - at the
Rackham Amphitheatre by Dr Carlos
Delgado de Carvalho, prominent
Brazilian geographer and sociologist.
This was the final lecture in a series
of six talks on his country given
here by Dr. Carvalho since April 16.
Denying that President Vargas
represented any European ideology
of government, Dr. Carvalho said
that through the government in power
since the revolution of 1930, and
through discretion and foresight on
the part of Brazil's chief executive,
Brazil has made a step toward the
solution of her political, social and
economic problems.
The modern Brazilian constitution
represents a form of correction on
the constitutions which existed before
1937, Dr. Carvalho said. All previous
distortions of existing constitutions
were taken into consideration and
avoided by President Vargas when
the present document was drawn up.
Flaws in the Imperial Constitution,'
which was used for 65 years in Bra-
zil, and in the Republican Constitu-
tion, which was used for 40 years,
were mainly in an uncertain and
varying balance of power between
federal and state governments, the
lecturer said.
Even the post-revolutionary con-
stitution drawn upin 1930-1931 was
not without faults, Dr. Carvalho
said, for the many parties which
had combined to effect the change
coud not agree, and inserted unnec-
essary points in the document. The
real beginning of modern Brazil came
when the Constitution of 1937 was
passed, eliminating most of the' faults
of the others by changes in the gov-
ernmental set up, Dr. Carvalho con-
cluded.

Reasons For Students' Entrance Fall Advisers
In University Revealed By Poll, For Orientation

/

DAILY

OFFICIAL

BULLETIN

Student reasons for entering and
remaining at the University are re-
vealed in results of a poll taken in
January, 1939, and released recent-
ly in connection with the Spring
Parley by the Bureau of Student
Opinion at Lane Hall. Figures show
that original reasons for entering
and those for remaining continue to
be almost the same, at least so far
as the leading reasons are concerned,
James Vicary, '40, director of the
Bureau, pointed out. Professional
or vocational training accounts for
56 per cent of a sample group of 594
entering school here, and when asked
in another question why they re-
mained, 54 per cent gave the same
reason.
Second and third answers to the
questions as to why students entered
and why they remained, were also
quite similar, 45 per cent entering
and 42 per cent remaining to get a
University degree, and 38 per cent
entering and 40 per cent remaining
to pursue their major interests.
Asked if they thought their prepar-
ation before beginning their college
careers was adequate, 65 per cent
of the students on this poll answered
that they did. Even more favorable
were the- answers to a question as to
whether their experience thus far at
the University justified the expecta-
tions they had when they entered,
75 per cent saying that they had.
As to methods of teaching and
study, figures on this poll reveal sev-
eral interesting facts, Vicary said.
Asked if they thought independent
reading and research helped or hin-
dered their careers here, 82 per cent
McDowell To Address
Alumni Club At Toledo
Prof. Robert H. McDowell, re-
search associate of Newberry Muse-
um, will -address the spring meeting
of the University of Michigan Club
of Toledo Wednesday night.
Robert O. Morgan, assistant sec-j
retary of the Alumni Association,
will accompany him to Toledo.

said they thought it helped, and only
3 per cent said that it hindered. The
lecture system was upheld by 58 per
cent and opposed by 16 per cent,
while the major or department sys-
tem was said to help by 50 per cent
and considered a hindrance by 17
per cent.
Other figures show that 49 per
cent of the group polled were in favor
of term papers, while 24 per cent
thought they were hindrances. On
final examiantions, opinions were
divided a little more evenly, for 39
per cent of the students thought
them aids and 36 per cent sf id they
hindered.
Hillel Plans Swing
Concert To Bolster
United Relief Fund
As part of the United Jewish Ap-
peal drive which is being held in
Ann Arbor until Friday, Philip Dia-
mond of the German department will
present a swing concert at 8 p.m. to-
day in the Hillel Foundation.
The money received from the sale
of tickets will be turned over to the
Ann Arbor Jewish Committee, local
relief agency.
In his concert Mr. Diamond will
trace the development of the more
modern type of music by playing a
number of selected records of such
noted musicians as Benny Goodman,
Tommy Dorsay, Red Nichols and Bix
Beiderbecke.
All of the funds received by the
A.A.J.C. will be given to the U.J.A.
which will in turn give them to the
Joint Distribution Qommittee, the
United Palestine Appeal and the Na-
tional Refugee Service.
The duties of these groups are to
care for those in need in the Euro-
pean War areas, help them leave the
continent and go to Palestine and
others nations who will give them
admittance and help them maintain
themselves in the lands they go to.
