Greek Civilians oBe Suplied By Drive Here Tag Day To Be Climax Of Ann Arbor's Part In National Campaign A campaign to raise funds in Ann Arbor so that the civilian population in war-stricken Greece may be pro- vided with food, shelter and medical supplies is being conducted this week as part of a national drive. The campaign will be climaxed Saturday with a Tag day. Leaders of the campaign point out that because every able bodied man is in the armed forcese defending his country the civilian population has become more and more dependent on imported supplies of agricultural and factory products. None of the money collected here is being used for military supplies and the cost of . the local campaign is being met by local Greek-Americans. Three thousand letters have been sent to residents soliciting funds. Checks should be mailed to A. L. Tappe, Treasurer of the Ann Arbor Trust Company, or contributions can be also made at the Ann Arbor Sav- ings and Commercial Bank, either the downtown or campus branches, and the State Savings Bank. The executive committee consists of George Burke, honorary chairman, Rudolph Reichert, chairman, Charles Preketes, president, Theodore Dames, vice-president, Paul Koken and Reardon Peirsol, secretaries; Mrs. Earl Cress and Miss Suzanne Bezir- ium, assistant secretaries, L. A. Tappe, treasurer, Angelo Poulos, assistant treasurer. Mrs. R. Bishop Canfield is chair-. man of the women's committee and Mrs. Paul Preketes is secretary of that committee. organized appeals for Greek re- lief noney are now being carried or throughout the country in an effort to prevent unnecessary suffering or the part of innocent war victims. Th Ann Arbor drive is one of the mos active in the country as the towr is the home of many Greco-Ameri- cans.

If this sup- ply added to Rumania's oil resources proved inadequate or if Russia chose to shut off its supply, it might be dis- astrous to the Reich war machine. Possible Objects Of Nazi Drive One of the possible objects of the Nazi drive in the Near East is the oil fields of Mosul and Iraq, Professor Slosson added. Two dangers served as a continual threat in this crisis. First, Germany might have persuaded Turkey to grant access to the petroleum fields without a struggle; second, Germany and Russia might have divided Tur- key between them. Both of these 'dangers have been removed at least 'Greek Week' Picks Connable (Continued from Page 1) Charles Peake, Prof. Karl Litzenberg, and Dr. E. W. Blakeman.

So far as is known, the only thing that Russia has promised in the agreement is not to interfere with Turkey should that country become involved in war, he observed. Secret Negotiation Possible "Although it can't be proved, somes secret negotiation may lie behind the Turkish-Russian accord," he noted, "and it is unlikely that everything has been published." Professor Slosson added metaphor-I ically, "Soviet diplomacy floats like an iceberg-four-fifths under water." In explaining the Russian posi- tion he cited the situation in 19141 when Russia supported Serbia against the Austrians. A similar siuation exists at present with Russia strengthening the Turks who may in turn bolster the Yugoslavs. Russia, he went on to say, is keep- ing one foot in each camp. It is un- likely that Russia will engage in the war in the near future, but would be glad to see Germany in trouble since the Nazis represent a potential threat. Vital Defense Link Russia has always wanted the Dar- danelles and considers it a vital link in its defenses. If Hitler attacks Tur- key, he must take the Dardanelles, Professor Slosson declared in explain- ing the Soviet stand. The Nazis wanted to neutralize Yugoslavia before going into Greece,' and as soon as that is completed will probably go ahead before the Brit- ish have a chance to consolidate in the Salonika area, he concluded. By WILL SAPP William E. Pelley, son of one of the nysterious figures on the American olitical scene-William Dudley Pel- ey-head of the "Christian Common- wealth" and past leader of the no- worious Silver Shirts, is just another tudent here on the Michigan campus. A geology major who was first at- tracted to Michigan by the forestry school, Pelley lives quietly in a cam- pus rooming-house and says he does little else than "sleep, eat, study and work." He earns his meals by his work at the Union desk. He belongs to no campus organizations. His friends know nothing of his relation- ship to the Pelley of the Christian Commonwealth. 'Father Misrepresented' Defending charges of . "fascist" hurled at his father, young Pelley asserted yesterday, "Dad has been greatly misrepresented. He has ab- solutely no connections with any for- eign government or their agents. He is entirely his own. Our-well, Dad's policy is America first. He's not pro- German nor pro-British. He is work- ing for the good of America."

BIG AS THE HEART OF DIXIE ... AND JUST AS EXCITING I > iA HOW THE TELEPHONE SERVES THE AIRLINES DEVELOPMENT OF AMERICA'S AIRLINES from a number of unrFlated local flying services to the nation-wide systems of today, on which a coast-to-coast flight is merely an over-night hop, is one of the modern miracles of transportation. And the Pell Telephone System is proud of. the part its services play in this great new industry. IN THE HANDLING of reservations and information calls alone, telephone service has become indispensable to the airlines. In the Detroit office of one airline, nearly 1,800 telephone calls . . . a majority of them regarding reser- vations . . . are received daily. Because reservations must- be handled with speed and accuracy, these calls are re- ceived at specially installed centralized reservation and control boards, staffed by 13 persons trained in the handling of such calls. IN OTHER PHASES of airline operation, both the telephone and Bell System teletypewriter service play important parts. Airports are linked by both. Flights from any port can be controlled from other points by either tele- phone or "teletype". Ground to plane radiophones carry instructions to pilots. And the "teletype" transmits reg- ularly the weather information that is so vital to air- line operations.
