The trend is in the wrong direc- tion. The French lost their prov- inces in North America largely be- cause of too much paternalism. The strength of the new American gov- ernment lay largely in its indepen- dence and isolation from the indi- vidual; under it the individual was left to his own resources and he hewed his way across the continent to settle the vast area that makes the United States today. Undoubtedly a government and a people are the stronger if the for- mer does not attempt to take all the burdens of the latter on its shoulders. Individual initiative should be encouraged, not stifled. The cause for this increased pa- ternalism on the part of the fed- eral government is found in the fact that since the Civil war, when state rights were definitely subo- dinated to national rights, the ad- ministration of government has tended to center at Washington and the legislation to pass to the states. The great increase in fa- cilities of transportation and com- munication have made local affairs national. That the tendency is unfortunate is evidenced by the greater depen- dence of the citizens on the gov- ernment, by the tendency of local governments to call in federal aid on local matters, and by a general lessening of private enterprise. A SANE "FOURTH" A sane "Fourth" has been order- ed for Thursday. The wisdom of this ruling needs no proving. There have been too many accidents caus- ed by the careless handling of hol- iday fireworks; too many children have been blinded, or maimed, or, othewise injured because of their ignorance of the dangers in explo- sives. Of course, it is always argued that the glorious fun of shooting sky- rockets, or lighting fire-crackers, or swinging sparklers is too enjoy- able to be eliminated from the cel- ebration. Can we presume to bal- ance so transient a pleasure against the injuring of a human being? The authorities have been be-; ginning their campaign for safe- ty by banning very dangerous ex- plosives only. If accidents contin-; ue, it may be well to consider those less dangerous.; Undoubtedly this should apply only to the use of fire-works by those inexperienced in handlingj them. Adults, who have had suf- ficient experience, and who take all; reasonable precautions to prevent injuries, might very well be per-1 mitted to carry on the tradition forj the benefit of those who are not1 so fitted. . o fMusic And Drama 0 0 TONIGHT: In Hill Auditori- um, the second of a series of Faculty Concerts, beginning at 8:15 sharp, and open to the public. * * * IIR SUMMER SCHOOL BOOKS NEW AND SECOND HAND FOR ALL DEPARTMENTS- UAHURflSCUNIVERSITY BOOKSTORE "ESCAPE" ANN ARBOR( AND THE UNIVERSITY The University leas always been ready to cooperate with the town of Ann Arbor in any way that it might. However, the University has had to keep always before it the realization that it is not an Ann Arbor organization, nor a Washte- naw organization, but a state in- stitution as important as any sup- ported by the taxes of the citizens of Michigan. In some respects it is even broader, for its influence as a center of learning and as a train- ing ground for young people from all over the nation extends beyond state, boundaries and even beyond national ones. This educational*im- portance makes it imperative that the University hold its own prob- lems first. It cannot subordinate its interests to those of a few townspeople. In a sense it is true that Ann Arbor and the University are in- terdependent, but the extent of this interdependence is lessening. The town of Ann Arbor is attempting to attract new industries and to encourage building within its bor- ders; it is attempting to shake off its dependence on the University. However, and this is the gist of the matter, when the University at- tempted to branch out also and to build dormitories in an effort to shake off its own dependence on the town, it was met with such a storm of disapproval that the ac- tion has been delayed some two years. The University must have dormi- tories for it has been adequately shown that the town cannot prop- erly take care of the students. The town pleads that the University should proceed slowly so as to give the citizens time to adjust them- selves. But the town has known for months that the dormitories would be built, and if it is not prepared by this time, it will never be. Pro- gress can never the effected if it is continually battled by selfish reac- tionaries. The citizens of Ann Arbor should realize that the problems of the University are their problems, that the losses of the University are losses to them, and that its pro- gress is Ann Arbor's progrerss. Al- though it may seem at the moment that the University's progress is Ann Arbor's loss, the final account- ing will not prove it so. The Uni- versity and the town will advance together if they advance at all. PATERNAL WASHINGTON Europe is coming to America. Her religion, her literature, her art, and now herpolicies of government are all being incorporated into the American scene. Government is coming over in the form of in- creased paternalism, a character- istic of 'European governments for centuries. Evidences of this fatherly atti- tude on the part of the federal gov- ernment are everywhere today. For example, the high tariff, farm re- lief, irrigation projects undertaken Wednesday night the Michigan Repertory Players will present John Galsworthy's latest drama, in Lyd- ia Mendelssohn Theater, as direct- ed by Professor Wallace of the Play Production department. Considerable interest attaches it- self to this offeting of the reper- tory group for the reason that it offers a number of unusual prob- lems for the director to solve while making demands on the technical facilities of the theater that prev- ious productions have not imposed. Galsworthy in shaping his story into dramatic form has struck on one of the most difficult arrange- ments for theatrical presentation- the episodic. His theme is the ex- periences an escaped convict en- counters in his efforts to find hid- ing places among the "good" peo- ple he meets. Necessarily, such a theme requires frequent changes of scene and a large number of characters; and by corollary, de- mands that the story be told as simply and yet as exhaustively as possible. The customary dramatic climax, reached after 30 or 40 min- utes of preparation in the conven- tional three or four act play, is not possible in this case where nine scenes are packed into some two and a half hours of playing time, so that the author must fall back on broad characterization and sim- ple incident, at the same time keep- ing clear the thread of his in- tention throughout each scene, in order to achieve successful com- munication of his theme ,to the audience. The theme itself is not Galswor- thy at his socialogical best; it is rather the philosophical Galswor- thy, thinking in terms of "Loyal- ties," only, outside the social tis- sue. The drama is psychological- in itself an extremely difficult thing to present in the stacato episode manner-and deals with the prob- lem a man of well developed char- acter faces in evading the social penalty of an act for which he is not completely responsible moral- ly, Miss Bonstelle produced "Escape" realistically in the Detroit Civic Theater last fall. Professor Wal- lace has abandoned the effort at realism in a number of scenes - by which no doubt he hopes to bring out more clearly the essential drama of the situation. For those who have seen the realistic pro- duction it should be interesting to compare the relative advantages. But the-present production, having had the advantage of two weeks for preparation, though any direc- tor will know how desperately short that time is, particularly when working with mercurial amateurs, at least should be more finished and carefully molded than the earlier production was. * * * FACULTY CONCERT Tonight in Hill Auditorium the second of the School of Music ser- ies of concerts will be offered, be- ginning at 8:15 punctually.

We have been wondering this for months but hop- ing, at the same time, that before' long they would get some light on error of their ways. The technique is quite simple: stress always and eternally the sex appeal. It does not matter at all whether the character of the pro--, duction admits of the usual display advertising; the illustrated material carries the same old message, world without end. Now good advertising principles are at absolute variance with this stupid practice. In the first place, they dictate that advertising should convey to newspaper readers the essential character of the perform- ance, stressing its best features. The movie managers, or advertis- ers seem to proceed on the assump- tion that there is only one way to get an audience-make people be- lieve that the picture is sensational or salacious. People have become so accustomed to this state of things that even were they suscep- tible to this sort of appeal they no longer believe in the advertising. These advertisers, too, violate an- other advertising principle by not knowing its public better. While the rough-neck and the moron may, in most instances, be ap- pealed to by a promise of salacious offerings, the great body of people are just as strongly appealed to by what is true and beautiful. Many and many a time people have been kept away from good shows by the advertising that displays kicking girls, or actors in questionable or suggestive attitudes.
