Turkey Asks For
U.S. Financial Aid
Near Eastern Political Situation Will
Not Influence Decision, Officials Say
By The Associated Press
WASHINGTON, April 12-Turkey has applied for an American loan
of about $500,000,000 to finance industrial development, it was learned today.
Government and diplomatic officials confirmed the Turkish applica-
tion but stressed that American consideration at this time has nothing to
do with the political situation in the Near East.
It was learned that Turkey first sounded out the American government
last October and submitted formal application for the credits in February.

r.,
Residents Walk
As Lansing Bus
Drivers Strike
Detroiters To Discuss
Grievances Monday
LANSING, April 12-(P)-A strike
of Lansing bus drivers at noon today
left thousands of Lansing and subur-
ban residents faced with a foot-sore
week-end.
Settlement of the strike cannot be
reached until the board of directors
of the inter-city coach line meets
Monday to act on the report of a
fact-finding panel.
The operators walked out promptly
at noon after the company failed to
meet the deadline set for acceptance
of the panel's report.
Local 1039 of the Amalgamated As-
sociation of Street and Electric Rail-
way and MotorCoach Operatorsrvot-
ed to accept the committee's report
early Friday morning but said they
would strike unless the company
agreed to the terms by noon Friday.
The bus drivers offered to set up
a jitney service operating their own
cars over designated bus routes as a
courtesy to the regular passengers
but Mayor Ralph W. Crego turned
down their proposal as contrary to
city ordinances.
The panel, of one labor, one com-
pany and one public representative,
recommended a $1.10 an hour wage
for a 48-hour week with premium
overtime payment and made the in-
crease retroactive to Dec. 1. The Un-
ion had asked $1.10 for a 40-hour
week.
Soe-iolog9ists Are
Named Editors
Four associate editors and a book
reviewer have been named for the
"American Sociological Review" from
among members of the sociology de-
partment by Dr. Robert Angell, new-
ly-appointed editor of the Review and
chairman of the department.
Professors T. H. Newcomb, Arthur
E. Wood, A. H. Hawley, and Horace
E. Miner are the new associate edi-
tors while Prof. Lowell J. Carr has
been appointed book reviewer.
The first issue of the bi-monthly
Review to be published by this new
aaff with its headquarters in Ann
Arbor will appear in August.

Although the Turkish government
is seeking about a half billion dol-
lars, there is no indication this
amount will be forthcoming because
of the limited capital of the export-
import bank.
France, Italy, Poland, China, and
Yugoslavia already have asked for
credits which far surpass the $1,600,-
000,000 remaining in the bank's trea-
sury.
In addition, Russia has been invited
to begin negotiations for a requested
loan of $1,000,000,000.
One government official,. whose
identity cannotebe disclosed, said
Turkey needed the dollars for "sup-
plies, equipment and machinery for
the plants and factories planned in
her industrial expansion."

Cardinal Mooney
Ordered To Rest
DETROIT, April 12-(A)-A com-
plete rest for "a matter of many
days" has been prescribed for Ed-
ward Cardinal Mooney after discov-
ery of a minor heart condition, ac-
cording to his physician.
Cardinal Mooney, who will be 64
next month, is in Providence Hos-
pital.

You have been smiling for two fullr
minutes.
Your facial muscles are weary;
your teeth and gums hurt; you
feel your nicotine-stained lips
about to drop. It won't hurt to re-
lax for a second-so you do; during
that second your map resembles a
goldfish seared out of its wits by
a shark; and during that second
there is a resounding CLICK'
The picture to be affixed to your
identification card (good for summer,
fall, and spring teims) has been
snapped. You slink away, noiselessly,
with just the slightest hope remain-
ing.
The above event happens to each I
and every University of Michigan
student each and every registration
week. It is the source of countless
jokes. The only thing wrong is that
identification spells nothing back-
wards; it's a pity, but true.
Identification cards serve one main
purpose besides the fact that they
"must be presented . . . at football
games and at the tennis courts..
and will be accepted for admission
to athletic events." This purpose is to
cause a dynamic surge of psycholo-
gical uplift on campus.
How is this accomplished? Simp-
ly through the fact that they al-
ways are issued at about the middle

of the semester, a time when every-
one is in the throes of a slump, a
time when everyone feels a vaca-
tion is about due. Then these little
monstrosities called "ident. cards"
by those in-the-know-and-out-of-
it-are issued. Sure, yours looks aw-
ful; you may resemble a Mongol-
ian idiot-but everyone else's cer-
tainly looks much worse. *
Laughter fills the air, and tiny blue
cards are being hidden in chandeliers
and vacuum cleaners near the scotch.
Everyone feels a little better.
Identification cards, then, like tax-
es, perhaps, are a necessary evil.
