Qlties
In the midst of a heated dis-
cussion last semester in Economics
121 (better known as labor from
Haber) on when the depression
would come, one student, evidenc-
ing great exasperation, asked for
the definite arrival date of the
collapse.
Prof. William Haber's retort
was: "I know when the depression
is coming, but I don't want to
discuss it because I don't know
if it will be in the morning or
afternoon."
Wisconsin Graduate
The man from Milwaukee, Prof.
Haber graduated from the Univer
sity of Wisconsin in 1922, got his
M.A. there in 1925, and his doc-
torate the following year. He also
did graduate work at Harvard
University, where he held the
Wertheim Fellowship in Industrial
Relations.
When queried as to why he
chose economics as his field, Prof.
Haber answered: "Why does a
person at the age of 20 make a
decision?"
State Relief Administrator
Prof. Haber came to the Uni-
versity in 1936 as a professor of
economics after teaching at Mich-
igan State College and working
in public capacities in Lansing.
From 1933-36 he was state relief
administrator and NYA admin-
istrator. Prof. Haber worked for
four different governors of the
State because either each one re-
appointed him or they "just didn't
fire me" .
It is Prof. Haber's theory that
economists should "participate ac-
tively in the affairs of the com-
munity, state and nation," His
record proves he has lived this
theory.
In 1939, Prof. Haber took a leave
of absence to handle a job con-
nected with the international ref-
Detrot Rejects
Roof-T opTlk
14ainsworth Plans
Sermons Elsewhere
Rev. William Hainsworth of
Dexter hasn't given up the idea
of roof-top sermons despite the
refusal of Detroit officials to sanc-
tion his recent request to speak
in the Motor City.
Mr. Hainsworth had planned
to speak from thg roof of a one
story Detroit building today, fol-
lowing the biblical precept that
sermons should be spread fro
the roof-tops. Tenants of an
apartment near the site of, his
proposed talk had objected on
grounds that it would create a
public nuisance.
He has already given five talks
in Michigan and nearby states in
this manner, and said that the re-
cent objection came as a complete
surprise. "I don't know how the
Detroit situation will affect my
future plans," Mr. Hainsworth
said, adding that he still believes
the idea is a good one.
Until difficulties can be ironed
out, he plans to confine his roof-
top sermons to nearby Michigan
towns. No dates have been set for
future talks as yet.
Special guests at the weekly 50 Long Years
Union Coffee Hour this week will

history courses are particularly in-
vited. The Coffee Hour is held at
4:15 p.m. Wednesday in the Ter-
race Room on the second floor.
A stag smoker will be held at
7:30 p.m. Tuesday for all men onI
campus. Cigars, cigarettes and re-
freshments will be offered to
guests. The room will be posted.
Any student wishing to tutor or
be tutored in any course is advised
to call the Union Student Offices
between 3 p.m. and 5 p.m. Monday
through Friday.
The Union will act as go-be-
tween to make contacts between
students desiring instruction and
tutors qualified to give it. A tutor
is required to have a grade of A
in a course he plans to teach, or
B if it is in his field of concentra-
tion.
A list of available student tutors
and their subjects will be pub-
lished later in the week.
The Union Executive Council is
making plans to present its annual
Sweater Weather Hop within a
few weeks. The dance is held in
the Union Ballroom, and nobody
is to be admitted unless he or she
is attired in a sweater. A special
program will be planned for the
affair.
r flood swept away a house in
which he was living in North Car-
olina. He thought the brush was
gone for keeps, but he found it
two weeks later, lying in the mud
a mile and a half down the road.
Even though it celebrates its
50th birthday today, Allhouse's
shaving brush can still work itself
into a lather. True, the paint has
been worn completely off the
handle, and its bristles are two
inches shorter than they once
were. But, as Allhouse puts it,
"It's still got a lot of good shaves
left in it."
"There are only two reasons
I'm going to retire it," he explains.
"First, I figure that 50 years is
long enough for anyone to work
at the same job, and secondly, I
want to keep it to show all the
World War II vets I've heard who
claimed GI equipment wouldn't
stand up."
And will Allhouse, now 62, give
up shaving and grow a beard?
"Not on your life," he says. "I
bought myself a brand new brush
yesterday, and if its half as good
as this old Marine Corps veteran,
its going to last me the rest of my
life."

ugee problem. He returned in 1940,
but left again in January, 1942,
to go to Washington to become
plhnning director of the War
Manpower Commission. Prof. Ha-
ber also served as advisor to the
director of the Office of War Mo-
bilization and Reconversion, work-
ing closely with Byrnes and Vin-
son during their tenures in the
directorship.
Other Public Services
Prof. Haber also lists among
his public services such jobs as
director of the Michigan Relief
Commission, member of the ad-
visory board to revise the Social
Security Act, chairman of the
commission which drafted Mich-
igan's Unemployment Insurance
Law, membership on the Michigan
Unemployment Compensation
Commission, the Michigan Prison
Commission and many more. In
connection with this, Prof. Haber
said that "although teaching and
working with students stimulates
me, I have a strong yearning for
administrative work."
The Habers have two sons, one
14 and the other 10. Prof. Haber
indicated that as yet, neither has
, h o w n economist potentialities.
The elder son, according to Prof.
H-aber', can't see how any intelli-
gent person would study anything
but engineering.
