XIII No. 35 ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN, SATURDAY, AUG. 6, 1932 PRICE FIVE Soviet-Reich Pact Foreseen, By Educator Chicago Professor Military Combii Threatens Europe Says nation States Arms Are Being Stored Up Russia Is Manufacturing War liupleunents for Gernhans, He /Holds WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass., Aug. 5. --(P)-Prof. Bernadotte Schmitt, of the University of Chicago, said at the Institute of Politics today that possibility of Russo-German military combination constitutes a "most seri- ous threat to the peace of Europe." Leading the Institute conference on the Versailles Treaty, Schmitt warned: "There is. no use blinking at the fact that those controlling the Reichswehr, according to evidence which cannot be dismissed as mere propaganda, appear to have entered into a working arrangement with the Soviet War Department, by which large quantities of war materials are being manufactured in Russia under German supervisoin and stored there against the day when Germany can show her teeth." "Europe under the Versailles treaty presents the world with a gloomy prospect," he said. "War may be in- evitable unless the treaties are re- vised, but there will also be war if an attempt is made to revise them." The World Court decision against the Austro-German custom union/ Schmitt declared, was "contrary to the principle of self-determination and dictated by high politics." 'Award of South Tyrol to Italy is, in Schmitt's opinion, "unnecessary and* unfortunate," while 'Hungary might have been treated with less severity." "So long as Hungary maintains claims to all pre-war territory her neighbors will insist on fronttiersj strategic, rather than ethnographic," he added. Through calling the Versailles set- tlement the soundest politically, Eu- rope has ever known, he concluded economic recovery may be "impeded, if not made impossible by present frontiers." Women's Golf Tourney Goes lto Last Lap Cave in Palestine Yields- 8 Skeletons Of Missing Link' LONDON, Aug. 5.-(,P)-Eons ago there lived in Palestine a creature like a man with a tremendously heavy jaw, overhanging brows and powerful arms acid legs. Theodore McCown, a graduate of the Univer- sity of California, told about him to- day at the Congress of Prehistoric Sciences. The creature walked with a shamb- ling gait, and if one were to see him coming down the street today he would seem an ugly brute, but not too fearsome. Mr. McCown, as 'leader of an ar- chaeological expedition on Mt. Car- mel in Palestine, discovered eight fossil skeletons of the creature last spring. Sir Arthur Keith described the, discovery today as "one of the most inportant' finds yet made in this field)" The skeletons date from the Mous- teriate Period, and help to bridge the gap between the Neanderthal man and the modern Homo Sapiens. The Mousterians, 'unlike the Nean- derthal man, had chins. Mr. McCown said he and his as- sistants found the skeleton in a pre- historic cemetery at the mouth of a cave on the side of Mt. Carmel. They were encased in a sort of natural concrete. Mr. McCown is a son of Prof. C. C. McCown, of $erkeley, Calif., and formerly was director of the Ameri- can School for Oriental Research at- Jerusalem.

Cissel and Miss Jean Kyer, who between them have held the women's city golf championships for the last three years, will meet in' the finals of the 1932 city tourna- ment at Huron Hills this morning.

Helen Gustine 7 and 6. Miss Kyer captured the title in 1929, Mrs. Cissel to k it the follow- ing year and Miss Xyer lifted again last year. Both have played strong golf throughout this tournament. Miss Kyer went out in 42, a record women's total on the Huron Hills layout this afternoon. Her most brilliant work was on the 570-yard sixth hole, where she got a birdie 4 by sinking a short approach shot from 20 yards out. i The Cissel match Friday was en- tirely a family affair, two of the younger Cissels having caddied while J. H. Cissel senior worked as referee. Atlantic Fliers Back After Crash in Russia NEW YQRK, Aug. 5.-(/P)-Two American airmen who expected to return through the air with a globe girdling record in their grasp came horie today by water on a liner with a missing anchor. They were Capt. Bennet .Griffin and Lieut. James J. Mattern, bronz- ed pilots from the southwest, who University auto regulations will be' lifted at noon Aug. 19, Walter B. Rea, assistant to the dean of students said yesterday. Lawv students,^-Who will continue their school for two weeks more, will be exempted from 'the pro- visions of the restrictions. No fundamental change in the reg- ulations is planned for the coming regular term, Rea said. He pointed out that none of the exemptions al- lowed during the Summer Session will then be in force. Students- who have, in the year before, been engag- ed in professional pursuits will be under the same rules as the un'der- graduate and graduate students. % Rea said that a final check on s u m m e r automobile registrations showed that more than 1,050 stu- dents have been operating cars un- der the exemptions provited in the regulations for the Summer Session. Only about 250 undergraduate rec- reational permits were issued. r0e Risin Iii ecuriies, Commodities Buying Orders Flow In, Many from Abroad, as Confidence Grows NEW YORK, Aug. 5.-(P)-Secur- ity and commodity markets made further progress as buying orders continued to flow in from both for- eign and domestic sources today, but, on the whole, the price movement was more conservative. Considerable difference of opin- ion was manifest in Wall Street banking quarters over the proposal to organize a large credit pool to bolster commodities, but, in the main, sentiment in the financial district was decidedly hopeful that business, under the stimulus of reconstruc- tion measures, might achieve a sub- stantial autumn recovery. Buying of American securities for London and Paris account remained impressive. Leading bankers said that no ac- tion had been taken as yet on the proposal of Gov. Meyer of the Feder- al Reserve Board that banks and the Reconstruction Finance Corp. jointly form a huge fund from which loans might be made to fabricators with which to buy raw materials. Somet bankers insis ed that adequate credit was already available, while others thought the plan had merit, and would be adopted. BASEBALL SCORES American League Bolivia Ready To Sign Pact, In Chaco ,War Will Cease Hostilities with Paraguay if Is Declared LA PAZ, Bolivia, Aug. 5.-(,)- Bolivia has agreed to immediate ces- sation of hostilities with Paraguay in the Gran Chaco on condition that, an armistice is declared on the basis; of present positions in the disputed territory instead of on the basis of June 1. The Bolivia position was made known through a note to neutral na- tions at Washington, who applied the new doctrine to the Chaco dispute of not recognizing territorial gains made by'force. The neutrals suggest- ed that an armistice be declared ac- cording to the June 1 status. League is Hopeful For Settlement GENEVA, Aug. 5.-(P)=-The League of Nations wvs hopeful today for peaceful settlement of the Gran Chaco dispute between Bolivia and Paraguay, after both nations had ex- pressed a desire for peace. It is impossible for the Haguef Court to arbitrate the dispute un- less both nations appeal to the court. Also, appeal presupposes agreement on the form of the question to be submitted. The Chaco dispute was considered predominantly a question of transit communication and not a boundary quarrel. Bolivia demands an outlet to the sea via the Paraguay and Plate Rivers. It was suggested that the League's technical organization might co-operate with the two na- tions in negotiating a free port and transit facilities. More Than 200 Leave On Jackson Prison Trip Armistice Officer Casper C. Michelsen of the Anil Abor police department, ,for two hours, yesterday asserted his authority at the intersection of South University avenue and State street, attempting to arrest a Sum- mer Session student for warning drivers of a police trap at the cor- ner. Office? Michelsen was stationed at the Union corner ,as a part of the general police, drive against traffic; violators. Dressed in 'plain clothes,' he guarded the stop sign at the in- tersection giving tickets to all mo- torists who did not make a com- plete stop. At 12:25 he stopped a woman driver for this reason. An- other motorist who had made a stop was forced to m'ake a second stop hurriedly to avoid hitting the wo- man's car. Michelsen, who appar- ently did not see him make the turn, attempted to arrest the' driver for alleged failure to make a stop at the sign. A group of Summer Session stu- dents including R. H. Gorsline, su- perintendent of schools at Hanover, Michigan and Roger Zinn, school su- perintendent at Rochester, Michigan protested the attempted arrest at which Michelsen burst into a torrent of abusive and obscene language, threatening to '"call the wagon" if the students did not leave immedi- ately. Some of the students followed by picketing cars, warning them of the' police trap on the corner. After they had all left excepting Bernard Kap- lan, Summer Session student from New Castle, Pa., Michelsen told the latter that he was going to take him to the station. However, Sgt. Louis Fo'ey, acting chief, arrived at this time and ordered the student re- leased. yMichelsen, at this time, con- tinued his abusive language. Later, he attempted an 'apology to Kaplan, insgting that he was acting oply on the orders of his superiors. Michel- sen was also the man who arrested three Daily editors yesterday. Engineers Working On Road Problems Plain Clothes Men Posted To Apprehend Drivers; Four in Campus Section, Two in Downtown Area Three Editors Held For 'Investigation' Detained Two Hours, Trio Is Released After Com- mnissioner Sa'ys Patrol- man Made a Mistake By BARTON KANE' Ann Arbor police yesterday ar- rested three editors of The Daily staff, who were investigating traffic law enforcement activities and tak- ing the pictures shown in the adja- cent columns, and held them at the police station nearly two hours "for investigation." Upon the arrival of police com- missioner' W. L. Dawson, however, they were released. He admitted that Casper C. Michelson, the patrolman who took the three men to the'police station, had no right. to arrest them. The incident occurred shortly af- ter 'noon yesterday, when it was dis- covered that patrolmen in plain clothes had been stationed at six corners to catch traffic violators. Commissioner Dawson later admitted that a drive had been started in all parts of the city on violators. Yes- terday's activities were confined to drivers who failed to stop at stop streets. Between 12 and 2 o'clock, members of the force were placed at the cor- ners 'of North 'University z4 'State 'streets, Suth University and tte streets, Lilberty and Stato' stkets Packard and State streets, Pakadd and Main streets, and Huron and Fourth avenue. Although the drive is not confined to student areas, four of the six officers were located at points which might be consideed as coming within those areas. An imminent shakeup in the police department because of laxity on the part of its force allegedly led to the concentrated drive on minor traffic violations during the last few days. A statement by police com- missioner George J. Lutz, Jr., went quite a way in clarifying the situa- tion, especially in regard to the tag- ging of cars for parking without lights. Department Was Lax "The police department has been getting lax in its enforcement of traffic ordinances," declared Lutz. "Large trucks double-park in front of empty spaces, and officers stand on corners and do nothing about it. So the police commission jumped on them and told them to get busy." Lutz did not believe that tagging was restricted to students alone. It is only possible for two scout cars to tag a 'limited number of cars each night, he pointed out, and although many tags may be given in one dis- trict one night, another district will be covered the following night. No tags are given before 11 o'clock at night, he stated, because the scout cars do not start out until that hour. Lutz deplored the frequet infrac- tions of traffic: codes by downtown business men, declaring that he knew several who often park overtime, or double-park, in downtown areas and escape because they( are so well known. Attacking the University for not co-operating with the traffic author- ities, Lutz declared that the police did not receive any incentive to show leniency to out of town University offenders. "The University," he al- leged, "gives out parking and driv- ing permits to drivers 'who use their cars all year long without Michigan (Continued on Page 3) t' by two yards. Lieut. Godfrey Lionel Rampling, British star who had been expected to give the Americans their stiffest opposition, was eliminated by a mar- [;in of inches by George Golding,. of Australia, in the race for third place. Carr was timed in 47.2 seconds for a ne.w Olympic record although fin- ishing under wraps. He wiped out the former mark of' 47.6, made by Eric Liddell, of Scotland, in 1924.
