BRILLIANT AUTHORITY:
Dr. Gale Lauds Former
Ambassador Edwin Neville
Veterans of Foreign Wars Sponsor Drive
For Rehabilitation of Returning Servicemen
"If Edwin Lowe Neville had retain-
ed his health, he would have been one
of our outstanding authorities on the
Japanese problem," Dr. Esson M.
Gale, director of the International
Center, said yesterday of the former
ambassador to Thailand, his long-
time friend.
Neville died recently in Pasadena,
-Calif., where he had gone to visit his
two sons, both in the service.
Dr. Gale said that their friendship
started when they were classmates at
the University. Then, after gradua-I
tion Neville was sent to Tokyo and
Dr. Gale went to Peiking. He saidi
that they used to meet and compare
notes on the two countries and the
languages, "for he became an expert
in the Japanese language and I, of
course, was interested in Chinese."
He said that he saw Neville for the
las time at Lake Yamanaka.
Before 1920 Neville had been con-
sul at Antung, China; Taihoku, For-
mosa; and Nagasaki, Japan. In the
four following years he occupied ,the
Japanese desk in the Department of
State, aided in the arranging of the
Conference on Arms Limitation of
1921 and served as a delegate to the
Anti-Narcotics Conference at Gene-
va in 1924.
He became counselor of the Em-
bassy in Tokyo in 1928 and then
charge d'affaires. President Roose-
velt sent him to Thailand as United
States Minister in 1937. He kept this
post until he retired in 1940.
Shortly after Pearl Harbor, Neville,
writing for the United Press, said
that the Japanese had been cultivat-
ing close relations with the various
national groups of Asia for many
years and that they were planning to
use these groups in time of need,
which, he had said, turned out to be
in December. "During the many
years I served in Japan," he had stat-
ed to them, "I saw the preparations
under way."

INFECTIONS HIGH:
Colds Take First Place as
Primary Cause of Illness
The common cold came out in first'
place again in the month of March,
according to a Health Service report
which cites "upper respiratory in-
fection" as the greatest single cause
of illness.
A total of 582 such diagnoses werel
listed with only 20 from the Navy as
compared with the Army's 236. "Gas-
tro-intestinal upsets" vied with "ath-

daytime or 9661 in the eve-'
lete's foot" for a poor second place.
Most of these two diagnoses came
from civilian students although the
Navy reported 34 cases of "athlete's
foot."
No Pneumonia Cases for Navy
There were no cases of pneumonia
in the Navy while the Army had only
one and civilian students six. There
were also six diagnoses of acute ap-
pendicitis for civilian students and
three each from the Army and Navy.
Sick calls amounted to 1,036 for
the Army and 752 for the Navy al-
though the number of servicemen
entitled to service in each division
is about equal. There were a total
of 86 physician's calls to civilian stu-
dents for the month with 132 infirm-
ary admissions and only 17 Univer-
sity Hospital admissions. The Army
had 39 infirmary admissions and the
Navy 47, with a small number of Un-
iversity Hospital admissions.
"Sanitary Sins" Listed
The Health Service report for
March sums up student health as "in
no way unusual. Entrance medical
examinations were given to 479 new
students, 263 of them women.
The report, compiled by Melbourne
Murphy, sanitarian, lists ten "sani-
tary sins" commonly committed by
students. Three of the items having
to do with living quarters are, im-
proper ventilation of study, sleeping
and bath rooms, unclean and untidy
study rooms and maintaining study
room temperature too high.
Dewey,...
(Continued rrom Page 1)
In addition to his musical activi-
ties, Dewey was a reporter and a
telegraph editor on The Daily, and
a member of the Student Affairs
Committee.
During his college days, his
classmates and instructors do not
recall having heard Dewey discuss
politics. "He wasn't politically-
minded and, as far as I can re-
member, he did not run for any
class office," Earl said. "He never
expressed any party preference."
At his commencement exercises in
the spring of 1923, Dewey sang a solo
and was accompanied by Dr. Earl V.
Moore, Director of the School of
Music.
Percy Stephens, New York voice
teacher, succeeded in persuading
Dewey to go there to continue his
studies in law and music instead of
returning to the University. In the
same year, Dewey entered Columbia
University and received his LL.D.
two years later.
While Dewey was an under-
graduate here, the Republican
Club of the University which felt
that University men and women
should take a more active interest
in politics, adopted a program
whereby prominent political fig-
ures were brought to Ann Arbor to
discuss national political questions
from a partisan standpoint.
The Daily in 1922 quoted former
Postmaster-General Will H. Hays in
a letter to Congressman J. M. Smith
of Michigan said, "This plan is a
fine idea to interest the young men
in college in national political issues
and the men at the University of
Michigan should be encouraged."
Perhaps Mr. Dewey was!

He said he objected to stu-

of Men's Judiciary Coun-

the University in 1940-41.
It was given to him for

England. In making the
presentation Col. Robert
Humphreys quoted from
the official citation saying
that the award was "for
heroism displayed at a
