Paris, July 24.-(By A. P.)-Dearon
Pierre de Coubercin, president of the
international Olympic committee, who
played so large a part In the modern
revival of the Olympic games, took oc-
casion in speaking tonight at a ban-
quet so offered to the organizer of the
games by the Swedish Olympic com-
mittee to reply to certain criticisms
that the games are a failure from ev-
ery standpoint and should be aband-
oned.
"Never since the renewal of the
Olympic games," he declared, "has
such success been achieved as this
year, not only from the sporting side
but also from the viewpoint of im-
provement in the states of mind of the
spectators."
Everyone will acknowledge that
athletics and other branches of sport
have never risen to such heights in the
history of the world. The athletes im-
bued with the spirit of safe and sane
rivalry, acted like gentlemen through-
out. As for the public, there was an
improvement; it was not quite so bad
as that of previous Olympic games.
Even our friends and enemies must
realize that in a crowd of thirty thou-
sand spectators, fifty hoodlums are suf-
ficient to create impudence."
The baron took occasion to criticise
hasty and ill-timed comment in the
press upon various incidents which
he characterized as unsufficient hap-
penings.
"The Olympic games," he added,
"have been a power for good since
their renewal in 1896. If I were con-
vinced that they bred discord and ani-
mosity between nations I would recom-
mend that they be abandoned, altho I
have spent thirty of my best years in
organizing their renewal. When the
present ridiculous campaign shall have
died a natural death, the Olympic
games will continue on scoring higher
chord perfection than ever entertain-
ed, as they factored in bringing about
general peace in the world and a
friendly feeling between the nations."
S. C.A AIR CAMP DRIE
SUCCESSFUL ON CMPUS
Three hundred and thirty-eight dol-
lars were subscribed by summer
school students Tuesday in the S. C.
A. drive for funds in support of the
Fresh Air camp af Patterson lake.
The drive was the most successful
of any put on in the summer term by
the S. C. A. Last year, only $264
were netted as a result of the sale of
the tags. Officials in charge of the
drive express themselves as heartily
pleased with the results of the cam-
paign.
The money raised will go to the
support of the University Fresh Air
camp at Patterson lake, where 500

poor boys of the state are every year
given a vacation under the auspicef
of the Student Christian association.
MARKET FOR ART WORKS
VERY LOW IN GERMANY
Works of art in Germany are about
as cheap as anything purchasable
there.. Recent auctions in Berlin
have demonstrated the fact that some
of the works of artists of repute have
sold for ridiculously low prices. At
an auction conducted by one of the
largest .dealers in work of art in the
country, the firm went to the expense
of reproducing several of the prin-
cipal works of modern masters offer-
ed for sale. Even here an oil paint-
ing by Ludwig van Hoffman brought
only 50 marks.

Hanford Talks On Study And
Cultural Value Of Literature

Cabinet In Greece
MONITOR PLAN FOR
- WORLD WIDE PEACE


Of particular interest to teachers of
literature as well as to all others who
heard him was the lecture given in the
Natural Science auditorium yesterday
at five o'clock by Professor Hanford
of the English department. The title
)f the lecture was "The Study of Lit-
era ture." It bears this title ratherl
than "The Teaching of Literature" be-j
cause Prof. Hanford holds that all good
Leachers of literature are first of all
students.
According to the speaker no one can
successfully substitute a knowledge of
pedagogy no matter how necessary
that may be to teaching, for a thor-
ough knowledge of the subject mat-
ter. He cannot successfully make a

little go a long way without feeling
that he is perpetrating a fraud upon
the public.
Prof. Hanford viewed literature from
the- standpoint of its cultural value in
his lecture. It is a desecration of lit-
'rature to be told to read fifteen min-
utes a day in order to increase one's
earning capacity.
Relaxation is one of the main aims
of literature but the average reader is
too liable to choose the "male-cinder-
ella" type of story in which there is
very little profit until the reader learns
O view the subject objectively.
Another use of literature is for the
extension of experience. It is here
'hat the careful reader gains most.,

study will be offered by the faculty,
which will include six professors, two
lecturers and four instructors. Ed-
mund S. Day will be the dean of thet

M.B.A. degrees providing that they
take five years, the first three in the
Literary college and the second two
years in the new School of Business
Administration.
To supplement the regular acad-
emic courses in the school, a business
research bureau will be establishe
at the beginning of the academic
term, and new industrial and business
problems will be able to be worked
out. One of the aims of this bureau
will be 4o keep the school in close
touch with the current financial,
commercial and industrial life of the
country.

Prof. J. T. Shotwell, of Columbia un-

night in Natural Science auditorium in
an inspiring lecture on the proposed
world treaty for disarmament and se-

The speaker outlined, the work of
the League of Nations since 1920 when

Public Opinion Necessary
"Ways and means and technicalities
are the things that we have finally
gotten down to from the old broad
assertions df ethics in matters of dis-
armament and preparation for security
and peace," Professor Shotwell de-
clared. "We should take a larger de-

COOLEY IS SATISFIED
WITH DEMOCRA9TIC CHOICE
Returning recently from Philadel-
phia where he had gone after the
close of the Democratic convention
in New ork City, Dean M. E. Cooley,
of the Colleges of Engineering and
Architeure, and candidate for U. S.
senator in the coining election, ex-
pressed himself as well satisfied with
the choice made for the Democratic
sstandard bearers in the coming cam-1
paign. He said that the party had
nominated for its presidential can-
didate one of the greatest DemocraticI
men in the last generation.I
Dean Cooley attended the conven-
tion in New York because as he ex-
pressed it," for an educational course
in politics for one who was a novice,"
and now he says that he knows a
great deal more about politics.
After the convention, Dean Cooleyl
went to Philadelphia to recuperate
from the effects of the meeting. Thb
brilli at Kleig lights, the continued
shouting, the noise and the heat gavej
many of the delagtes sore throats,'
sore eyes and headaches, many of the
delegates also having attacks of
colds.
Asked as to what his campaign
plans were, eDan Cooley said that his
campaign had been originally plan-
ned to start on July 14, but due to
his visit in Philadelphia, this had to
be abandoned. No definite plans will
be made till the arrival in Detroit of
the State Democratic chairman and
then his plans will be known. He
plans, however, to spend the first part
of his campaign in the southern coun-
ties, and then arter a rest to cam-
paign in the northern counties and
the Upper Peninsula. Dean Cooley
expects to visit every county in the
state before the final election.

PROIF. REED DISCUSSES
U. S. NOMINATING MEETING
"Political parties are inevitable,
and it is hard to differenciate between
them. The Democrates themselves
believe the principles laid down by
the Republican party," asserted Pro-1
fessor T. H. Reed, addressing the
Thursday afternoon session of the In-
stitute of Government and Politics.
The speaker went into a discussion
of the nominating methods. hAccord-
ing to Professor Reed, the primary
system gives us the better man. Cal-
ifornia is under this system and the
quality of the candidates has improv-
ed considerably. The convention sys-1
tem does not furnish the voters with
any information about the candi-
dates. In defense of this system he
lared that there is an advantage in
using the convention plan, a party
iachine, in that the delegates can get
together and compromise on a can-
didate, which could not be done at the
polls.

"They have been waiting, and still
are waiting, pathetically, for Ameri-
can leadership," stated the professor.
Do Not Know Insecurity
Lord Robert Cecil has been accused
by the continental peoples of enter-
taining mere principles of idealism,
while only automatic, general, and per-
manent detailed methods of providing
.ecurity can satisfy those nations
whose territory is threatened.
"We in America do not know what
insecurity is, and not knowing, we are
not sympathetic," said Professor Shot-
well. "The French say that a disarm-
ament treaty-and soforth must first
be a security treaty; they are right.
The American plan, which has been
adopted by the League as an bfficial
document, recognized the primacy of
security in any mechanism for dis-
armament."
Drawn by Americans
The treaty as drawn up by the
group of Americans, including Gener-
al Bliss and Professor Shotwell,
would not provide for any two dis-
pensations of war and peace as inter-
national law in the past has done.
Simply, the aggressor would convict
himself by failure to appear before
the court established; all other na-
tions might, or might not, treat that
nation as an outlaw. The treaty would
constitute enforcement of the treaty
since it is aimed directly at stability
of currency and payment of repara-
tions on a scale to be determined by
the injured party.
"The nations have been disappIint-
ed; the opportunity is still open. By
the end of this year the League will
be keeping the peace in central Eu-
rope; its metpods must be extended
to keep the peace throughout the
world. We cannot impose security
and disarmament by fiat; treaties
probably are the most effective in-
struments by which we can accom-
plish the purpose that the public has
set us."
