tunate that such
an outstanding
preacher as Dr. Straton would be one
to re'sort to such a caustic accusation
as that directed at the Democratic
nominee.
The New York minister's charge is
that Smith "as a public man is the
deadliest foe in Americatoday of the
forces of moral progress and true
political wisdom." Although Governor
Smith's record in the New York As-
sembly and as governor of his state
is one which points to opposition to
the prohibition laws and apparently
one which a great number of our re-
formers and ministers would natur-
ally oppose, there seem to be no just
grounds for the extreme view taken
by Dr. Straton.
Just a's Dr. Straton is prejudiced
against those who by their action in
public office seem to oppose such
measures as prohibition and certain
types of "iblue sky" laws, so Governor
Smith has a right to be prejudiced
against types of reformer's who en-
deavor to cram down the throats of

They seem to have passed from

The Women's League gave a sports
party last night. We went, but we
couldn't for the life of )us figure
out why they called it a sports party.
Maybe because a fellow would have
to be awfully good sport to consent
to attend one. The besttworkout that
we had was in trying to down some
of the food they served.
Isn't there any one who will

I would choose Chesterfields." Or,
"If only I could smoke, I would be

it MEIGAN;
ty, represented only 3.9 per cent of
the votes cast, probably indicating
that the inclination toward radicalism
of a conservative campus is center-
ed in a very small minority of stu-
dents and faculty members, most of
whom are theorists in the narrowest
sense.
A little more than a third of the
faculty vote was for Smith, the rea-
sons for which are probably attribut-
able to party affiliation rather than the
issues of policy. Ballots of the grad-
uate students were 80.9 per cent in
favor of Hoover, which may indicate
that Hoover is the choice of the more
mature portion of the voters. The
percentage of- regular student;8, and
incidentally younger student's, who
favored Smith was slightly greaterI
than in the other groups. This per-
haps is an indication of youthful ap-
proval of certain policies of the gover-
nor, although there is little doubt that
party influence is responsible in a
great many cases.
There is not, however, so much var-
iation in any of the voting ratios that
anything absolutely decisive can be
drawn from any of the figures. The
variation may be attributed to a num-
ber of causes which are interesting
if not positive. There is but one thing
certain, and that is that the campus
is not only a Republican stronghold,
but that regardless of party it is
strongly for Herbert Hoover. Wheth-
er the poll can be taken a's indica-
tive of the proportion in which the
votes will run in the actual election
remains to be seen when the country
goes to the polls in November.
STRATON'S CHARGE
Dr. John Roach Straton's obviously
fallacious charge i1gainst Governor
Alfred E. Smith, uttered from his pul-
pit Suinday, is a type of denunciation
which should have no place in the
church pulpit. It is indeed unfor-
THE MICHIGAN WEEKLY
A summer subscription campaign
foil The Michigan Weekly, the Uni-
versity's youngest publication, is be-
ing launched on the campus today and
tomorrow. In order to reach Summer
Session students who will soon be
leaving Ann Arbor and whose inter-
est in the University will undoubtedly
continue through the year, a booth is
being maintained in Angell hall dur-
ing the day where subscriptions for
The Weekly may be obtained..
With the purpose and new policy
of The Weekly in mind, its import-
ance as a factor in the dissemination'
of University news cannot be over-
estimated. Following its inaugural
year during 1927-28, it was voted very
much worthwhile in that it presented
the news of the campus to outside
readers in unbiased fashion, and its
continuance on a larger scale was
approved by the Board in Control of
Student Publications. An editorial
staff was organized, comprising 14
special writers, and The Weekly will
start the coming year with this staff.
As in the case of eveuky new and
growing publication, The Weekly has
many improvements to be made be-
fore it can be said to be perfectly
fulfilling its mission. But as a fac-
tor in giving tie news of the campus
to outside readers and as a paper
which presages to develop into one
of the most instrumental of Michi-
gan's several publications, The Week-
ly can, and apparently is, doing an
inestimable good. The editors and
the Board of Contziol of Student Pub-
lications, which is sponsoring the
paper, are deserving of the support
which Summer Session students many
of whom will soon return to their
winter localities, and the parents of
regular students, may give them inI
subscribing to The Weekly.

Eskimoe indignantly announces to
his public that he, not Hokum, is re-

drink that Swift's drug store is sell-
ing. "I was inspired to the inven-
tion by outside forces over which at
the time I held no control," con-
fessed the youthful inventor today.
We still have no name for the
drink, though suggestions are
pouring into the office continual-
ly.. We shall make the grand an-
nouncement of the prize winner
later.
Remember, the drink consists of
orange ice, vanilla ice cream,
lemon, orange, pineapple, cherry,
ginger ale, and soda water mixed
up a it in a malted milk mixer.
It costs fifteen cents.

Thriving in commerce, wealthy in agricultural lands, popular as a summer resort section and noted
for its educational institutions, Southwestern Michigan holds a variety of attractions for the visitor.
A shore-line lapped by Lake Michigan's sparkling waters, and scores of inland lakes nestled amongst
hills and woods, offer the vacationist many havens, reached by rail and boat line and fine roads.
Paved highways lead to busy manufacturing towns and through a bounteous agricultural, grape and
fruit raising section.
As evidence of its commercial activity, one need but mention the leading industries of a few of the
cities of the section .. . Grand Rapids, furniture center of the world; Kalamazoo, home of paper and
stove manufacturing; Muskegon, builder of gas engines; Battle Creek, serving the world its breakfast
cereal; Jackson, producer of automobile accessories; Belding, silk manufacturer.
One of the largest universities in the country is located in peaceful Ann Arbor. Lansing, maker of
automobiles, is the capital city of Michigan. Michigan Normal College, Michigan State College and
many other educational institutions dot the section.
Millions of dollars have been expended to provide a highly efficient communication system, and the
telephone offers the visitor opportunity to keep in touch with home, easily and inexpensively. Long
Distance Rates Are Surprisingly Low!
