Is Vastest Industry
"Education is beyond compasison
the vastest industry in America," he
continued. It concerns us both in
school, and when we are out in the
world. "Colleges are still debating
individual vs. mass education," he em-
phasized to the seniors. "Your prob-
lem is not so much what the Univer-
sity does to you than what you do
to the uinversity. I ou .go into a
woriu where democracy is on th de-
tcnrsive, and it is up to' you to pre-
serve it."
After emphasizing the danger to
den ocracy, he discussed the nw in-
itt<4trial system and the problems that
faced the graduate. "You are to live
through the generation which must
solve the problem of preventing ma-
chinery from becoming a curse, and
efficiency a handicap. Yours is the
generation which must solve the
problem of enpoyment of leisure, not
the problem of getting leisure.
Where Democracy Failed
Dr. Rowell continued by pointing
out that democracy had failed in
meeting the problems of foreign re-
lations, of peace, of race problems.
In concluding, he asked the question,
"can democracy survive its 1wn in-
herent bunk?" "Can we retain the
science and still remain democratic?"
"This does not say that democracy
is a failure," he challenged. "It
challenges you to make it a success!"
"I havedfull faith you will meet it,"
he ended. .
WEEKLY EDITORS
TO CHANGE STYLE
Written for the first time by a staff
of its own, The Michigan Weekly will
be published again next year, it has
been announced by the Board in Con-
trol of Student Publications.
During the past year The Weekly
reprinted important news of the week
from The Daily for the benefit of-
parents of students, enrolled in the
University, and of other outsiders in-
terested in its welfare. However, ;be-
ginining next year the new policy of
having the new Weekly staff white its
own copy especially for outside read-
ers will be effected, acording to plans
approved by the Board in Control of

Student Publications. Accordingly, a
staff of 16 special writers has been
organized.
Other changes in keeping with the
new policy will be made, and it is ex-
pected that The Weekly will be added
permanently to the list of publica-
tions under control of the Board.
Subscriptions may be paid or applied
for at the Press building during the
summer.
