Use Of Bureau,
For Tax Facts
Ford Heads Government's
'Question And Answer'
Information Service
For 27 years the University Bur-
eau of Government has performed a
useful service for Michigan citizens
by providing them with unbiased in-
formation on leading questions in
taxation and government.
Organized in 1914, the Bureau has
since acquired a national reputation
as an authority on questions in state
finance, taxation and administra-
tion. With governmental activity so
wide-spread, an agency concerned
with government problems furnish-
es an invaluable service. In 1934 the
Bureau was reorganized as an in-
dependent unit under the direction
of Harold D. Smith, now Federal
Budget Director.
Headed By Dr. Ford
At present part of the University
Institute of Public and Social Ad+.
ministration in the Graduate School,
The Bureau of Government is head-
ed by Dr. Robert S. Ford of the eco-
nomics ' department #and one of the
foremost experts on taxation in the
country.i
The scope of the Bureau's acti-
vities was greatly enlarged. in 1938
when it received a grant ^of funds
for research from the Mott founda-
tion. As a result of its research and
study of how other states have met
similar probdlems the Bureau has
helped to introduce reforms into
Michigan's government.
For two years the Bureau sup-
ported. the contention that the
state's failure to distinguish between
real and personal property- made the
tax on intangible property confisca-
tory and impossible to administer.
In 1939 the state legislature passed
an act over-hauling the system of
taxing intangible personal property
such as stocks and bonds.
Bureau Advocates Reform
The Bureau has also been a long
advocate of putting all state tax ad-
ministration under one single de-
partment. This type of administra-
tive reorganization was finally adopt-
ed by the 1941 legislature after ree-
ommendatioi by the governor's Tax
Study Commission.

University for semester's credit. Thir-
ty hours credit constitutes a year's
undergraduate work in the Univer-
sity. Extension credit courses are
conducted in exactly the same man-
ner as are the corresponding courses
on campus, so far as credit-hour and
instructional requirements are con-
cerned.
The Extension Service also offers
credit and non-credit courses at the
University of Michigan Center for
Graduate Courses in Detroit. Forty-
seven courses are open to residents
of Detroit.
A course in Current World Affairs
is offered in Adrian. A current af-
fairs course is also offered in Fen-
ton.

matic and Economic History of the

Practice 240 and Social Work 171
(Law and Social Work) are offered

M3any Societies g
Are Provided
For Engineers
Loneliness in the College of tngin-
eering is an inexcusable situation, as
that school offers such a wide variety
of societies and organizations that no
engineering student can say he isn't
interested in at least one of the fields.
Freshmen who wish to start off
their college careers in high gear will
do well to become affiliated with Sig-
ma Rho Tau, engineering stump
speakers society. Speech making of
all kinds forms the bond for this or-
ganization.
Highest reward for engineering
scholarship and activity during the
first three years, is membership in
Tau Beta Pi, national engineering
honor society which is the ultimate
goal of all outstanding engineers.
Students interested in administra-
tive duties will find the Engineering
Council work to their taste. Class
representatives are elected each year,
and the remaining members are heads
of other important engineering or-
ganizations.
Stepping-stones to Tau Beta Pi
are Vulans and Triangles, senior and
junior engineering honor societies re-
spectively. Both base membership*
qualifications on scholarship and ex-
tra-curricular activity.
In addition to these general organi-
zations belonging to the entire en-
gineering college, there are individu-
al groups springing from the individ-
ual departments. These societies,
welcoming any student in their re-
spective departments, include:
American Institute of Chemical
Engineers, American Institute of
Mining and Metallurgical Engineers,
American Society of Mechanical En-
gineers, Institute of Aeronautical En-
gineers, Institute of Radio Engineers,
American Institute of Electrical En-
gineers, Eta Kappa Nu (eletrical en-
gineering) ;
Society of Automotive Engineers,
American Society of Civil Engineers,
Transportation Club, Sigma Xi (sci-
entific research), and Quarterdeck
(marine engineering and naval archi-
tecture).
