Few people are aroused by the urgency of the problem even though more than fifty percent of the hospital beds in the nation are occupied by mental patients, Hor- owitz said. UNITED STATES Public Health Service figures indicate that there are 8,000,000 persons in the nation suffering from mental illness at the present time. It is also feared that at the present rate, 1,000,000 children now in elementary schools will spend some time in state mental hospitals in later life, according to the Public Health Service. Noting these figures, the Survey Research Center is attempting to provide data for the planning of a program which will facilitate a person's getting professional psy- chiatric help when he needs it. Evaluation of interviews com- pleted in Phoenix and forwarded to the center is now underway. Complete results of this study will be available later in the month. Read Daily Classifieds By VERNON EMERSON The United States is a new and continually surprising world, Karl Kanka of the Hesse Landtag, Germany, said yesterday in des- cribing his impressions of America after a two-week stay here. Kanka and five other German legislators are touring the nation under the -State Department's cultural exchange program. * * * "ONE OF the most democratic processes -here seems to be your open township meetings," Ger- trud Harms of the Bremen city council noted. "The citizens meet together to discuss their problems freely-something we do not know in Germany." She registered astonishment, however, at the low vote turn- out in the Ann Arbor elections Tuesday. Hans Huber of the Heidleberg town council and judge of a Mann- heim county court, after attending a meeting of the League of Women Voters, hailed our policy of quiz- zing candidates on their political views. * * * BUT HE said that he felt can- didates were chosen because of their political standing rather than any qualification for office. All of the German visitors agreed that any of the men' in office they have met were fair and objective in their public life. After viewing both partisan and non-partisan types of governmen- tal set-ups, the legislators split their opinions on which they pre- ferred. * * * '"I MARVEL at the educational system in this country," Miss Harms said. "Here you start at the beginning of a subject and work through it by degrees. In my land persons in different stages of training in a subject are thrown together." And Hanka said that he wished that his countrymen who oppose study of the arts could come here and see the interest that American students show in them. K lIi A -Daily-Burt Sapowitch HERE COMES MICHIGRAS-With trumpets blaring and drums rolling the Chicago House Marching Band appeared with banners, tandem bikes and coeds on the library steps to herald the coming of Michigras, April 21-22. Mounting enthusiasm also prevailed at Michigras headquarters which was swarming with committee members taking care of last minute business. * * * * Wichigras Offices Upset ByPeCanvlFever Famed Designer To Speak Here Norman Bel Geddes, prominent theatre and stage designer, will be among the speakers at a con- ference on architecture and equipment of a theatre which will be -held here April 14 and 15.

Debarkees will apparently be well accommodated, as bus lines: and trains plan to bring extra units into use for the occasion. Some reservations can still be obtained for special buses Friday to Chicago, Grand Rapids, St. Ig- nace, Sault Ste. Marie, Bay City, Cleveland, Buffalo, and Pitts- burgh. These will be generally through buses, and sale of reserva- tions will close at noon today. Railroads report heavy traffic Ui ticket sales, with most reserva- tions gone. Two extra sections are scheduled to pull out of Ann Arbor tomorrow afternoon. One will head west at 1:15 p.m., and the other east at 7:30 p.m., in: addition to regularly scheduled trains. Beginning today, seats on east-I bound flights will be very hard to obtain, according to M. B. Boersma, of a local travel agency. ------- - ---- r Leather Booklets 65c Cardboard Booklets 35c Folds IOc 100 Personal Cards $2.00 Orders taken Wednesday and Thursday 1-5 P.M.
