Gale To Talk
On Modern
ChinaToday
Professor Will Describe
Journey To Far East
In Lecture Here
Prof. Esson M. Gale, Acting James
Orin Murfin Professor of Political
Science, recently returned from an
"official mission" through the Far
East, Near East and China, will speak
on "Nationalistic China Today" at
4:15 p. m. today in the Rackham
Amphitheater.
Prof. Gale was one of the first to
travel over the new air route to the
Far East, since the Trans-Pacific
route had been closed shortly before
his departure. Returning to the
United States seven months later by
way of Arabia and West- Africa, he
will now serve on the University fac-
ulty in place of Prof. Joseph Hayden.
Prof. Gale was in India at the time
of the arrest of the Indian Congress
leaders when disorders broke out in
protest of India's position in the war.
His experiences also included a jour-
ney almost to the Tibetan borders and
a trip into China via North Burma
over an air route at a level of 18,000
feet.
Illustrated slides, taken by Prof.
Gale under conditions of considerable
difficulty, will supplement the lecture,
nc the public is cordially invited.
Ride, Cossacks, Rjide:
Russians March, Cabbies Watch,
As Ann Arbor Goes Continental
By HARRY LEVINE
At about 6:30 p. m. yesterday 34
Cossacks were seen walking up State
Street.
Wearing their high boots and don-
ned in their black Russian collars,
they walked solemnly with their
hands behind their backs, cigars
puffing, as cab drivers sat back in
amazement and watched.
Whoever said that Cossacks ride
was greatly mistaken; when these1
boys got off the train yesterday, they
strolled calmly out of the Michigan
Central station, right up the Hill,
without so much as a Volga grunt,
gave their concert-and left at 1:00
a.m. this morning. -
They barely had time to talk to
anybody and all they saw of the cam-
pus in daylight was the brief glimpse

Old Bells Toll
In WarEffort
'U' Chimes Bring $666
To LocalScrap Fund
The "old chimes," donated re-
cently by the University to the Wash-
tenaw County Salvage Comimittee,
sounded their last note yesterday
with the jingle of $666.55 into'the
committee's war fund.
George Gabler, county salvage
drive head, reported that the money
sounded their last note recently
from P. Lansky and Sons and repre-
sented the selling price of 4.281
pounds of bellnetal which was pur-
chased at the rate of 151/2 cents a
pound.
Even the "junk dealer refused to
make a profit on patriotism, accord-
ing to Gabler; and the old chimes will
be sold to the government at the
'same price Lansky paid the salvage
committee.
Originally, the chimes occupied the
tower of the old University Library.
They were transferred to the Engi-
neering Annex in 1917 and served
throughout World War I ringing out
the hours for students on campus.
They will serve in this war in the
form of armaments for our fighting
men.
as they sat around on benches smok-
ing cigarettes just before concert
time.
"Thees is not like other years," said
Basile Bolotine, tenor Cossack. "Be-
fore, when we come here, we used to
live here. Now-we are gone the
same day. To Detroit."
Bolotine, the Cossack who grins
from ear to ear as he sings, whistles
and shouts for the soldier songs, and
generally resembles an amiable cad-
aver on the stage, was more com-
municative than his chief, Jaroff,
who as one of the other Cossacks ex-
plained, "don't speak English so
good!"
"We first come here in nineteen
'terry one," he explained, "and then
in nineteen 'terry nine, we stay here
for good."
The Cossacks who are all proud of
their fast growing American citizen-
ship, were in Germany in September,
1939, and remained there nine days
after the war started. Though some
people thought they might have trou-
ble, everything turned out all right.
"We had American papers," Bilo-
tine concluded cheerfully.

House Group
Favors New
War Controls
Tolan Committee Agitates
For Powerful Agency
To Direct Activities
By The Associated Press
WASHINGTON, Oct. 20.-A House
committee warned today that "this
war can be lost in Washington" un-
less "patchwork" methods, errors and,
confusion in the production program.
are halted.
The committee, a special House
group set up to study defense migra-
tion under the chairmanship of Rep.
Tolan (D-Calif.), urged the creation
of a super-agency with broad policy-
making powers over tasks now per-
formed by the War Production Board,
the Office of Price Administration,
Selective Service and the War Man-
power Commission.
In advocating the establishment of
this new "office of war mobilization,"
the report said:
"Despite numerous realignments,
ten months after Pearl Harbor, bus-
iness - as - usual considerations still
permeate the Washington wartime
agencies.
It said that "our materials distri-
bution system is breaking down," and
blamed top war agencies generally
for "the absence of a national produc-
tion program."
Suggestions for immediate enact-
ment of national service legislation
were described by the committee as
an attempt by the War Manpower
Commission to seek by statute to
"underwrite the authority it has
failed to exercise."
It asserted the Selective Service
Administration "is obviously unfit" to
balance the apportionment of man-
power resources between military ser-
vice and production needs and ac-
cused the War Production Board of
having "actively promoted . . . the
present dispersal of responsibility for
production" and of having failed to
convert to "the job of war produc-
tion."
