HOPE FOR POSTERITY: Hull's Talk on Foreign Prolicy Lauded by Prof. Calderwood Panel Discusses Governmental Post-War Policy Union Representatives, 'U' Professors Deal With Reconversion Government's role in business and the possibilities of mass unemploy- ment and inflation after the war were discussed by two University pro- fessors and a UAW-CIO representa- tive in a Post-War Council panel last night. Dr. Floyd Bond of the economics department expressed his view that a tax program which would regulate consumption and expansion and the maintenance of total demand by gov- ernment spending may have to be called into being after the war. Government Controls Needed He believes that the immediate' problem of reconversion would be aided by maintenance of some gov- ernment controls such as the OPA' until there is again a normal relation between supply and demand. Government should step into the field of business when social interest is not promoted by business activities, Dr. Bond stated. He pointed out that competition cannot be depended up- on to control such industries as pub- lic utilities and those which exploit natural resources. The main difficulty in our econo- mic system, he said, is the occurrence of periodic breakdowns. Such a breakdown following the present war might result in 15 to 20 million un- employed. Enterprise Not "Free" "Enterprise is not free in the sense in which we ordinarily understand the phrase," Francis Downing, UAW- CIO representative, said. He cited government subsidies to railroads and highways, tariffs, and artificial- ly controlled prices. "The enormous rise of monopolies also indicates that enterprise has not been so free as the Chamber of Commerce or the NAM would have us believe," he added. Speaking of government's relation to industry, he said, "Ownership of implements of war should never again be left in private hands." He urged cooperation of government, business and labor. Pr'of. C. L. Jamison said, "It doesn't matter who owns the instruments of production; the real problem is in the people who manage them." "If business does not serve the pub- lic with fair prices and reasonable quality, we have a perfect right to re- bel," he continued.E Daily Staff To Meet There will be a compulsory meet- ing of The Daily business staff at 4 p.m. today. AID FROM CENTER: Foreign Studej By English La By BARBARA HERRINTON Many foreign students at the Uni- versity face a special handicap in studying because of the difficulty in- volved in.using the English language. To help them overcome this the In- ternational Center sponsors the En- glish Language Service. Miss Grollman Is Head Miss Sarah Grollman, who con- ducts the classes, says that though the students may have a good read- ing knowledge of English, they need oral practice. To meet this need she has the students read aloud articles which use the vocabulary the stu- dents need in their field of study. After reading the articles the stu- dents summarize them in their own words. In addition, they write themes on subjects in which they are inter- ested. With emphasis on careful dic- tion, Miss Grollman corrects their errors in the pronunciation and con- struction of English. Speaking Improves Miss Grollan, who is from New England, explains that she does not hope to eliminate the accents her students have. But, she says, we must be able to understanO. what they say. To illustrate this she played a re- cording made by a student from La- tin America. The tfirst side, which was made shortly after the student arrived at the University, was very difficult to understand. The other side, made after four weeks of study, was easy to understand, though an accent was still apparent. In addition to the English the stu- dents will need in class work, Miss Grollman patiently explains Ameri- can idioms and even slang. Slang Translated She sometimes tells the story of a foreign student who questioned her Lamb To Give Piano Recital Betty Sue Lamb, '44SM, will pre- sent a piano recital in partial ful- fillment of the requirements for the B.M. degree at 8:30 p.m. Sunday in the Lydia Mendelssohn Theatre. Miss Lamb of Denver; Colo., is a student of Joseph Brinkman, and has previously studied with Bessie H. Tewksbury and with Rosina Leh- vinne and Dalies Frantz during the summer months. -She will perform the Bach-Busoni "Organ Choral Prelude," also the IBach-Saint Saens "Bourree" and Bach-Rummel "Jesus Christus, Got- tes Sohn." Other selections on Miss Lamb's program include numbers by Grieg, Schumann, Casella and Bar- tok. The recital is open to the public. ats Are Helped unguage Service about a conversation he had over- heard in the Union. It seems that one student said, "Jeet?" "No, Joo?" answered the second, to which the first said conclusively, "Then let's go." The foreign student, she said, was a bit surprised to find that the conversation concerned eating. A Latin American student may say, "I'll explain you." Miss Grollman then states that "we don't usually ex- plain a person, but rather a situation to a person." Another typical mis- take of Latin peoples is that of using a double negative to state a positive idea," she says. 45 Enrolled There are now 45 students enrolled in the classes. They represent 17 dif- ferent professions. In her work at Connecticut College for Women Miss Grollman majored in English. She then did graduate work in phonetics, linguistics and se- mantics at Columbia, the University of Chicago and the University of Michigan.

Hambro To Appear On Saturday, Carl Joachim Ham- bro, former president of the Norwe- gian Parliament and the League of Nations will speak at 10:45 a.m. in Rackham Auditorium. Dr. Dwight L. Dumond of the history department and Dr. R. W. Cordier of Pennsyl- vania State Teachers' College will speak on the same program. Group conferences will be held at 9:30 a.m. Saturday in the Women's Lounge of the Rackham Building on "Curricular Changes for the Post- War Secondary School," in the East Conference Room on "Curricular Changes in Post-War Colleges" and, Speaking of Secretary Hull's recent' speech on United States foreign poli- cy, Prof. Howard B. Calderwood of the political science department said he believes it goes far in clarifying the position of the United States. The speech, he said, really des- cribes how the United States is fol- lowing the basic principles set forth originally by Hull in 1937 and also deals with specific questions which have bothered a number of people. "One of the most important parts} of the speech," he said, "was the statement that boundary questions will be put off to a later date and that questions of that nature are to be settled by agreement among the four major powers in accord- ance with the understandings reached at the conferences last fall." Hull's statement that cooperation among the four major powers will endure seems to represent on his part a real hope and determination that this cooperation will continue, Prof. Calderwood said. Though the rela- US-I2 Cut-Off MayBe Made Survey crews of the State Highway Department in Lansing are at work obtaining detailed information on the proposed relocation of the Ann Ar- bor north belt of U.S.-12. The new relocation project which is a part of a state proposed $120,- 000,000 post-war plan would provide a by-pass about eight miles long around the city to take heavy traffic off city streets and to eliminate seri- ous traffic congestion in the city. Preliminary plans now being made by the survey group provide for an approximate route with the cut-off for Ann Arbor beginning east of the city at Ford Road, coming north, and then cutting into U.S.-12 on the west side of the city. State Highway Department officials reported that the proposed cut-off around Ann Arbor is only one of 19 post-war construction projects. tions between the United States and Britain are close, he pointed out that1 some of the interests of the two na- tions are not common to each of them. "And when we see that there is the possibility of divergency be- tween these two states, think of the many possibilities between four na- tions." "The problem," he said, "is not should they cooperate-a-but how-by what means?"j "It seems to me," he added, "thatj it would be easier for these four na-1 tions, Britain, Russia, the United States and China, to work together in a framework of an organization comprising others of the United Na- tions, rather than in an organiza- tion comprising only the so-called "Big Four." Prof. Calderwood tacitly approv- ed of the United States' policy in occupied countries of leaving the choice of the governing bodies with which we will deal up to the com- manding officer in that country. He said that in France we are fol- lowing a careful policy and, as Hull stated, that we do not wish to force any particular government on the French people. The Committee, he continued, was never the legally con- stituted government of France and in recognition, "We recognize a fact." Hull's statements regarding neutral countries evidently apply not only to Spain but also to Sweden, Eire and Turkey, he said. Dean Asks Fair Treatment Of Essential Farm Youth EAST LANSING,. April 19.-(/P)- Dean E. L. Anthony of the Michigan State Agriculture division today ap- pealed to friends and neighbors of farm youths deferred because of their essential service in food production to be considerate and "boost the mor- ale" of the young men. "From nearly every county in the state," Anthony said, 'we have re- geived reports of essential young men or boys on farms fearing to appear in public because they are not in mili- tary service." starting RITA IfAYWORTII KELLY I Music 6y.
