XIII No. 38 ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN, WEDNESDAY, AUG. 10, 1932 ________________________________________________ a a - a WeIsh Scores Professor Plans New Balloon Trip 'Gold Plated' State Economy Gubernatorial Candidate Promises Real Reduction In Expenditures Charges Brucker Put State in Debt Organization Must Be Re-. built to Operate Within Budget, He Declares George Welsh, prominent candi- date for the Republican gubernator- ial nomination and former city man- ager of Grand Rapids, heavily scored the Brucker administration's "gold- plated economy" before several hun- dred persons in front of the city hall last night. He outlined the policies he in- tended to put into practice "not in January-but immediately on being notified of election." "I intend to slash expenditures and establish a policy of economy where- by the stat~e government can avoid voting extra appropriations to meet its expenditures," he said. "We must reorganize so that we can operate within our budget, not millions above it." . Assails Waste Welsh charged that the Brucker administration, lacking c o h e r e n t leadership of any kind, had run Michigan seven or eight million dol- lars into the red during the past two years. He pointed out an instance where $14 apiece had been spent on gold badges for conservation officers while 100,000 people were dependent on the state or virtually starving in Detroit. "The governor," h continued," has not only failed utterly to develop a,' definite unemployment relief pro- gram, but has allowed the state to plunge into greater hopelessness that it was in two years ago." During his career as city manager of Grand Rapids, Welsh said, he wiped out a deficit of $1,300,000 and at the end of his first year showed a favorable balance of $100,000, at the same time that the state was going deeper and deeper into debt because of an ill-advised and ill-timed pro- gram of expansion. Sounds Keynote' "The keynote in my campaign for readjustment of state finances," he' stated, "is the release of the people and of business from their heavy burdens not only by the reduction of taxes but by an actual cutting-out of waste. The ledger must show black ink once' more."~ He cited the case of an employee of Grand Rapids, a utility expert on a $5,000 yearly salary, whom he fired because his services were not needed. The expert went to Lansing as an employee of the state and earned more than $18,000 a year in fees for services rendered to the Bell Tele- phone company. The company raised its rates, Welsh said, and the people of the state were the ones who fi- nally paid the efficiency expert his high salary. Northwestern Approves Broadcasts of Football EVANSTON, Ill., Aug. 9.-V)- Northwestern university will permit broadcasting of all its home football games again next season, director of athletics, Kenneth "Tug" Wilson said today. "While we know that broadcasting does cut down attendance at football games, we feel we should continue broadcasting for those loyal fans who can not afford to come out in these times," he said. Director Wilson said he was as- sured of large crowds for the Minn- esota-Northwestern game at Minn- eapolis and the Michigan-Northwest- ern game at Ann Arbor by the ath- letic directors at both universities. Sink Opens His Detroit Campaign Headquarters Dr. Charles A. Sink, president of the School of Music and candidate for the Republican nomination for lieutenant-governor, yesterday opened his Detroit campaign headquarters at the Hotel Statler. Dr. Sink will continue his speaking tour of the staate, covering the upper peninsula the latter part of this week. He will still maintain his Ann Arbor headquarters in the Ann Arbor Press building on Maynard street. Stimson S t i r s Ire of Japan By Statement Eastern Power Indignant, Sees Attack on Manchur- ian Operations Reversal of Policy Hailed by League Washington Views Speech As Biff for Support of U. S. Doctrines (By The Associated Press) Secretary Stimson's i m p o r t a n t pronouncement on American foreign policy Monday night in New York had these results: Japan was indignant, interpreting the address as an attack on her course in Manchuria. Formal protest to Washington was under consider- ation. League of Nations commentators at Geneva hailed the Secretary's "reversal of the doctrine of neutral- ity" and considered the speech of special importance in connection with the forthcoming reports of the League Commission of Inquiry into the Manchurian conflict. In Washington the Secretary's speech was interpreted as a definite bid for continued support of the American policy in the Far East by the little nataions of Europe.

Verne's 'Tour Du Monde' Will OpenTonioht Repertory Production of Famous Story Directed By T. W. Stevens Jules Verne's "Tour du Monde," more familiarly known to those of another generation as "Around the World in Eighty Days," will be given tonight, Thursday, Friday and Sat- urday nights in the Lydia Mendel- ssohn theatre, bringing to a close a summer dramatic season which has seen the presentation here by the Michigan Repertory Players of seven outstanding productions. A whirlwind melodrama, "Tour du Monde" is directed by Thomas Wood Stevens, who has provided this fa- mous play with a new version which, when produced at the Goodman theatre in Chicago by Mr. Stevens, promptly broke all house records in its first week, holding the stage for the longest run in the six years of the repertory company. The mad chase during the 14 epi- sodes of the play which has its set- ting in the Club of the Eccentrics in London, moves steadily, with scenery flying past. The action was retimed by Mr. Stevens, and where necessary the dialogue was rewritten. The scenery, which pictures on the stage the Suez canal, a railroad train, Rocky mountains, an elephant and an ocean liner, is being designed by Alexander Wyckoff and constructed by Fred Rebman. Prominent in the cast are Lauren Gilbert, Frederick Crandall, George Totten, Lawrence Levy, Paul Show- ers, Alan Handley, ,Martha Ellen Scott and Dorothy Fritz.

Yellow and Blue I T SEC'Y HENRY L. STIMSON 1 Reich Sets Up Death Penalty For Terrorism Government Takes Three Measures to Preventf More Rioting BERLIN, Aug. 9.-4()-The gov-.. ernment tonight invoked extraordi- nary powers, including the death penalty, in an effort to put a stop to outbursts of political violence which have resulted in the killing of at least 140 persons and serious injuries to more than 1,000 since June 1. With the approval of President Paul von Hindenburg, three emer- gency decrees were issued by Chan- cellor von Papen. One of these ex- tended the political truce to Sept. 1. Another set up heavy penalties, in- cluding sentence of hteath, for acts of terrorism. The third instituted special "speed" courts to deal sum- marily with offenders. The situation was considered so critical that the government did not wait for President von Hindenburg to return from his country estate atE Neudeck in East Prussia before cloth-: ing itself with emergency authority. Meanwhile Adolf Hitler, whose Nazi storm troopers are held ac- countable for much of the violence, took steps to check the political pas- sions of his followers. 70 Candidates From Literary College Named Will Receive Degrees If They Complete Require.- ments This Summer More than 70 persons will be rec- ommended for degrees from the lit- erary college should they complete their requirements at the end of the Summer Session.

Green, both leading actors in the court room dra- ma that climaxed in the clicking of prison doors behind Al Capone- were promoted by President Hoover today, Johnson to be'a district judge and Green to the district attorney- ship. Johnson was named judge for the northern district of Illinois. Both are recess appointments and must be confirmed by the next senate. Elevation of the two federal prose- cutors marks the third promotion awarded by the president for those who were active in sending the no- torious Chicago gangster to the peni- tentary. Last March Mr. Hoover nominated Judge James H. Wilkerson, who sen- tenced Capone, to the circuit court bench, but the appointment never got out of the senate judiciary com- mittee and died with adjournment. Carillon Bells Still Included In Local Plans Carillons and Other Are Described by Moore in Lecture Bells Earl Y l Norman F. Kraft Files Formal Complaint for Abusive Language Editors Ask Civil Rights for Public No Statement Is Issued At End of Three -Hour Closed Session By BARTON KANE Police commissioners of Ann Arbor were closeted with Mayor H. Wirt Newkirk, editors of The Daily, two students, and two complaining school superintendents last night in a three hour session during which Patrol- man Casper C. Michelsen was under fire for his alleged mistreatment of complaining witnesses. A formal protest was made by Nor- man Kraft, a student, who claimed that he had been grossly insulted and spoken to in profane language. Com- missioners r e f u s e d following the meeting to make a statement, but said that within a few days a report might be made. In the meantime Michelsen was serving his turn at the police desk. Civil Rights Asked Editors of The Daily did not ask the dismissal of any officers, but urg- ed the commissioners to ask officers to observe "civil rights of citizens." During the session William Dawson, one of the commissioners, stated that Michelsen had no right to arrest the editors. However, he said, their com- plaint would not be taken into con- sideration since they had not been made formally. Bernard Kaplan, a summer student from New Castle, Pa., also told the commissioners that he had been in- sulted by the officers. Michelsen, when called before the commission, denied the charges, and stated that he had not used pro- fane language. A crowd of citizens and students gathered at the police station early in the evening in the hopes that they would be given an open hearing. In the crowd were many who had state- ments to make against the depart- ment because of. the recent campaign to decrease the number of no-light, stop street, and speed violators. The hearing was called by Mayor Called by Mayor Newkirk after The Daily had printed stories in which students claimed they had been treated unfairly by the police. No indication was made at the ses- sion that there would be a let-up in the campaign which has been con- tinued since the latter part of last week, and The Daily takes this op- portunity to advise the students that there is an ordinance against driv- ing over 20 miles per hour in the residential districts of Ann Arbor, 15 miles per hour in the business dis- tricts, and 7 miles per hour in al- leys. Several students have been arrest- ed recently while attempting to make early morning classes for violation of the speed ordinance. Alleged Swindler Taken To Jackson for Probe After an alleged attempt to swindle a local chain of gas stations yester- day, Henry Kelly, 30, of 814 Dakin street, Chicago, was taken to Jackson for investigation. Kelly went into the office of John Cox, president of the Michigamme Oil company, yesterday and present- ed a cleverly forged renewal slip for an advertisement in the non-existent "Interstate Police Magazine." He had several months previous obtain- ed $100 from Mr. Cox for this adver- tisement and now wanted $25 for a renewal. Police believe that Kelly is one of the gang which has been operating a similar racket throughout the Mid- dle West, but were unable to get in- fqmation from Kelly. League commentators especially emphasized what they declared was a reversal of doctrine of neutrality, as well as realization by the Ameri- can secretary that consultation by the United States on world prob- lems is inevitable. Lewis and Householder Win in Tennis Doubles Charles Lewis, Grad., and F. C. Householder, Grad., won the annual summer intramural tennis doubles tournament yesterday, defeating T. J. Sisco, Grad., and H. G. Archer, Grad., 6-4, 7-5, 7-3.- Thirty contest- ants took part in the series of hard- fought matches. In the semi-finals of the upper bracket, Sisco and Archer had de- feated Shanks and Coleman. In the lower bracket, Lewis and Householder won to the finals by turning back Thebaud and James. Plans made eight years ago for the erection here of a tower to contain a set of carillon bells were described by Prof. Earl V. Moore of the music school in a lecture at Natural Science auditorium yesterday. "This tower," Prof. Moore said, "was one of the projects nearest to the late President Burton's heart. Eight years have passed and there is not one pound of metal for the bells :n the campus and no place selected for the campanile tower. This was a result of conditions beyond the con- :rol of the commission appointed to Russia Is Topic Prof. Howard Y. McClusky, of the educational psychology de- partment, will give the final 5 o'clock University lecture today in Natural Science auditorium. His topic will be "An Interpretation of Soviet Russia," and it will be illustrated. carry it out. Appeals for funds were made out in 1929 but the depression came and they were never sent out. Some day, however, you will come back to hear the first concert on the campus carillon." Bells, Professor Moore pointed out, are one of the most ancient of mu- sical instruments, being first used widely in England and Holland. Eng- land, he said, was not interested in carillons but the English are great lovers of bells. Bell-ringing in Eng- land, he said, was even considered a form of exercise. "Any group of bells," Moore said, "which has less than 24 changes is known as a set of chimes while one having more than 24 is known as a carillon. The largest carillon in the world is in this country but the amount of bell material in a tower doesn't make the best carillon." Walling Captures First Place in Diving Events First place in'the closely contested diving events of the summer intra- mural swimming program yesterday went to Robert Walling, who carrie( off 34.9 points for a victory over R. Philleo, A. Gentz, and W. R. Jag- gers. The diving contest brought the summer tank program to a close.

Socialist Club To Try Co-Op Housing Plan Will Rent Houses, Supply Living Quarters to Stu- dents at Cost A new housing project, sponsored by the Student Socialist club, was announced yesterday. The club in- tends to rent several rooming houses next fall, which they will re-rent to students who will take care of the places themselves, and also prepare their own meals. The houses will be rented as cheap- ly as possible, officers of the club stated, and will be re-rented at cost, as the project is a non-profit one. Other. projects for next year in- clude staging of campus activities in order to raise money to subsidize students and possibly provide for sev- eral small loan funds for the Univer- sity. Plans for this activity are not Where printer's ink once stained the walls and desks, where the noise' of embryo journalists' typing drown- ed out even Choral Union rehearsals next door, soon the melodious sounds of Beethoven's "Unfinished Sym- phony" will resound. That is, as soon as the carpenters cease pounding for alterations have been started in the former student publication offices in the Ann Arbor Press building on Maynard street room, and all orchestra activities will be transferred from Morris hall, which will then be left free for band and broadcasting facilities. A total of seven large class rooms are available besides the orchestra room, as well as offices for consulta- tion and a new storage room for in- struments and music files. The new partition walls which have been built in the former Daily edi- torial rooms have made the rooms soundproof to a large degree. They
