For the next few years they will disappear, merged into the vast per- $onnel of an exacting society. Then gradually here and there the names of a chosen few will begin to stand out on the horizon of accomplishment and lI4chigan's class of 1924 will have its celebrities. They cannot all become famous, these seniors who are graduated to- day. After all, if it were the prop- erty of more than a few, fame would be hardly worth having, for fame is spoken of in national terms. The great body of seniors will seek success and respect in the commities in which they make thei homes. There, the proper carrying on of the purposes they have set for them- selves will grant as valuable a ser- vice to the world and to Michigan as the work of those who reap glory in broader spheres. At any rate, today is commence- ment, and with the fervent hopes and well wishes in the hearts of friends, parents, and classmates, each of the two thousand Michigan graduates lays aside the gown of University life and begins. JEDITORIAL COMMENT MR. BRYAN REMARKS (Detroit Free Press) Says William Jennings Bryan, fresh from the Cleveland convention, where he enjoyed the privilege of a "close up" from the press section: "The Republican party not only pro- poses no reform; but emphatically denies any need of reform exists." Whoa, Bill! Didn't you listen when Mr. Warren read the platform? What about the planks on public economy, finance and taxation, agri- culture, the world court, , railroad rate schedules, law and order, and several other things, including lynch- ing? Or don't you believe in an anti- lynching law any more than you do in the enforcement of the Fourteenth amendment? Also, what about this little pas- sage? "We recognize the duty of con- stant vigilarice to preserve at tall times a clean and honest government and to bring to the Saar of justice every defiler of the public service in or out of office.. Dishonesty and cor- ruption are not political attributes. The recent congressional investiga- tions have exposed instances in both parties of men in public office who are willing to sell official favors, and men out of office who are willing to ,buy them, in some instances with imoney, and in others with influence. The sale of influence resulting from the holding of public position or from associating while in public office, orl the use of such influence for private; public trust and prejudicial to good government. It should be condemned by public opinion and forbidden by ED law.

But perhaps Mr. Bryan, while you are quite willing to have the Repub- licans admit the existence of human frailty in their ranks you do not relish the insistence that Democrats also fell under the curse of the eaten apple, and so the quotation doesn't appeal to you. However, you never can quite fig- ",- ure on Mr. Bryan's mental processes. For instance, he says: "It will be a clean campaign, free from personali- ties, but in all probability it will be a warm campaign." A clean campaign! We hope so. But Mr. Bryan, on the square, why Commencement is upon us.
