XIV No.29 ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN, SATURDAY, JULY 29, 1933 T U I I I Hyde Speaks On Problems >Of Diplomacy Difficulties That Confront State Department Are Described 'Career Men' Are Called Invaluable Secretary of State Holds Position That Requires Tact, Personality By FRANK B. GILBRETH Back in 1922 the Secretary of State was making a trip to Mexico on a United States Navy ship. At this time the ruling government in Mex- ico had not been recognized by this country. A Mexican gun-boat with an admiral aboard was steaming out to greset the Secretary. The gun-boat would salute the Secretary. If the United States ship saluted the ad- miral it might be construed as recog- nition of the country. If it did not return the salute it might be construed as an insult. What was the Secretary to do?' This is just one of the dilemmas that face the Department of State almost every day, according to Prof. Charles Cheney Hyde, of Columbia University, who spoke last night on the International Law Conference series. Professor Hyde, who has been closely associated with the State De- partment since 1923 when he was ap- pointed solicitor of that organization by President Harding, told many "off the record" stories concerning diplo- matic relations between the United States and other countries to illus- trate the complications involved. Salutes Admiral As a matter of fact, in the case referred to above, the solution was relatively simple. The Secretary-- the Hon. Secretary of State or just plain. Mr. Secretary, if one is to be proper-decided to salute the Mexi- can Admiral and tien immediately to tell him niot to take the salute too seriously, Professor Hyde said. But here is a case where the tact of the Secretary of. State was tried to the utmost. The sister of an offi- cial in one of the embassies in Wash- ington went shopping in. a depart- rgent store and made the error of sipping several articles of merchan- dise into her handbag without both- ering to go to the trouble of having them wrapped or of asking their ,price-while the house detective was watching. She was arrested. As soon as her identity was learned, although all parties were willing 'to drop the case, the Secretary of State felt that some action was necessary. He final- ly suggested that, in the future, she do her shopping in the stores of her own .country. The suggestion was followed4 according to Professor Hyde. Held Responsible The Secretary of State is person- ally responsible to the President for the foreign policy of the United States, he said. This includes such major aspects as the drafting and manipulating of treaties and such minor details as seeing that the mem- bers of the various delegations to this country are seated correctly at official banquets. Both are very im- portant, he stated. A man at the head of the State Department must know more than the law, according to the speaker. He must know all relevant facts, he must have tact, he must have the correct sort of personality, he must be forceful, he must be a compro- miser and at the same time a fighter, he must have moral strength and in- tegrity, above'all he must be a diplo- matist. . Professor, Hyde described "career men" in the department as invalu- able. They are of great assistance to ambassadors from this country who are new at the job when they take their pests, he said. Even a fine am- bassador of the calibre of Frank B. Kellogg receives implicit written in- structions from his chief, he said. BANK ROBBED VERNON, Mich., July 28.-Two masked men entered the bank here at 9 a. m. today and escaped in a car with a large amount of cash. Observ- ers said the bandit vehicle was a Ford coach with red wire wheels. Local police said last night that the robbers might be the same men that were seen passing through Grand Tom Hammond, Point-A-Minute Team Member, Is Johnson Aid By CORNELIUS BEUKEMA Gen. Thomas Stevens !Iammond- just Tom Hammond to Michigan alumni the world over - will make his forcefulness felt in his new job as assistant to Gen. Hugh Johnson, Nira director, even as he made it felt when a member of Michigan's point-a-minute teams back in 1903- 04-05. That is the opinion of Ham- mond's old coach, Fielding H. Yost. Gen. Hammond, who is to have charge of re-employment under the new deal, is president of the Whiting Foundry and Equipment company and president of the Illinois Manu- facturers' association. He is and .has been a member of the Board in Control of Athletics here, for more than a decade. But he is better known as the great place- kicker of his day and the man who, playing at defensive fullback, was a major factor in holding Michigan's opponents to a stingy 30 points in 35 games played over three seasons - years in which Michigan amassed the amazing total of 1,627 points. "He played without pads whenever Keene Fitzpatrick would allow it," Director Fielding H. Yost said today. "He had to wear them in practice, but if he could get away without them in a game he did. He 'wanted to make 'em feel his bones,' he used to say. In many of those games he had only a jersey between an oppo- nent and his own collar-bone. And he took very little time out. "Tom played right end his first year out, and the next two years he was at half on offensive and at full- back on defense. He was a fine speci- men, 6 feet, 1 inch tall and weigh- ing about 195. His brother Harry played end for four years, from 1904 (Continued on Page 3) . Abbott Given Revenue Post By Roosevelt Democratic Leader Says He Plans To Remain In Residence Here Will Commute To Detroit For Work To Take Over Post Held By Fred L. Woodworth For 12 Years Socialist Calls Roosevelt Both Leader, Bluffer Staebler Gives Credit For A Revolution President Peaceful A crafty politician as well as a progressive leader, was the interpre- tation of President Roosevelt offered by Neil Staebler in his talk on the Socialist Club series yesterday afternoon. "In considering what he has done so far," he said, "we are faced with the unusual problem of separating administration proposals from bits of sheer bluff." "The President has adopted a clever method of proposing measures which can hardly have escaped the public's notice by now," Staebler con- tinued. "Doubtful bills are presented by men not too close to the cabinet, and Roosevelt is then able to view the reaction to them and determine whether they will be acceptable to the public at the time. If they are too radical to be popular, he is able to offer a compromise measure." Among' the "bluff" bills as op- posed to those actually on the ad- ministration program, Staebler listed several of the measures which were passed to empower the President to regulate currency, and which he has yet used only to a slight extent. "The handling Roosevelt has given to the recent banking situation, while not closing the problem, should be recognized as an accomplishment," Staebler said. "He was clever to get the banks open at all." Staebler also' praised the President's "courageous attack" on the budget problem, and other administration actions. "Just because blood isn't flowing in the streets," he said, "don't think' that we.aren't in the midst of a rev- olution. Call it socialistic or facist, or tion, and a peaceful one." Kipke Leaves For Week At Texas Coach School Coach Harry Kipke left today for Lubbock, Tex., where he will teach the Michigan football system next week in the coaching school at the Texas Technological College. Kipke will be back here for a few days after finishing work at Texas Tech, then will go east to spend a week teaching in Coach Andy Kerr's school at Colgate university. WE SAY IT'S SPINACH CARTHAGE, Mo., July 28.-(I)- Prospects for a bumper crop of ttur- nips for the unemployed of Jasper County appeared good today when someone discovered that the recently planted court house lawn here had been sown with turnip seed. Offi- cials were trying to find out who is responsible. MAJOR LEAGUE STANDINGS By the Associated Press AMERICAN LEAGUE W L Pct.

Pensions For Veterans Will Be Reviewed WASHINGTON, July 28.-(A )- With 90 days to complete their tasks, the first federal boards will be set up next week to review the claims of 150,000 veterans for pension pay- ments on ailments presumed t have originated in service. President Roosevelt, announcing his approval today of regulations creating the boards, sanctioned an order authorizing $50 monthly to Spanish American war veterans 50 years or older, who are 50 per cent disabled and in need. He will define need later. Between 70 and 90 reviewing boards will be established immediately. They will be announced as quickly as pos- sible. The first are to be made public on Monday and may cover only four or five states. The boards will determine by Octo- ber 31, whether the veterans should continue to receive benefits on the presumption that their disabilities re- sulted from service, or if they should be removed from the rolls. Sample Gives Injunction Against Ypsi Dance Hall An injunction forbidding Norman Hammett, of Ypsilanti, from operat- ing an open air dance hall there, has been issued by Jtidge George W. Sample. The injunction followed a water and egg-throwing fight between em- ployees of Hammett's dance hall and neighbors. Mrs. Nellie Stevens, who lives next door to the dance hall, obtained the injunction. Horatio J. Abbott, prominent Dem- ocratic leader and resident of Ann X Arbor, was appointed collector of in- a ternal revenue for Michigan by Pres- t ident Roosevelt yesterday. He will c assume the post held by Fred L. V Woodworth, of Detroit, for the past 12 years. t "I will'continue to live in Ann Ar- c bor," Mr. Abbott told The Daily last I night, "although my new job will e make it necessary for me to com- mute 'between here and Detroit." r Mr. Abbott will take over the reins C of the Federal bureau in Detroit next s week, he said. "The department will occupy three i or four floors in the new Federal r Building," said Mr. Abbott. "The postoffice will be housed in the first I three floors, and we will be imme- t diately above. The top stories wil be occupied by the Federal courts." r Mr. Abbott's career in Democratic t politics in Michigan dates back many c years. From 1924 to 1929 he was r 4iairman of the State central com- i mittee, succeeding Governor Com- t stock. Now Democratic national com- mitteeman for Michigan, he was chairman of the. state Democratici. committee for the. 1932 presidential V election, and was a candidate for Congress from the second district, but was eliminated in the primary poll by John C. Lehr, of Monroe. Mr. Abbott is 57 years old, and is a native ofI eawee'Ounty. JOB CALLED 'CHOICEST PLUM' DETROIT, July. 28.-(P)-The ap- pointment of Horatio J. Abbott, of Ann Arbor, Michigan, to be Collector 1 of Internal Revenue at Detroit, an- nounced in Washington today gives to the Democratic National Commit- teeman from Michigan one of the choicest plums in the federal pat- ronage that has caused no little con- troversy among the rank and file of the state's Democrats. f Aigler T OUpen Lecture Series For Next Week: Speaking idonday afternoon on "The Trend in Collegiate Athletics," Prof. Ralph W. Aigler of the Law School will opn next week's talks on' the Summer Session special lec- ture series.

English Leading French In Fight For Davis Cup AUTEUIL, France, July 28.-()- The French Davis Cup tennis defense crumbled unexpectedly today with the defeat of Henri Cochet in the singles and England smashed through for two victories that fore- cast, simultaneously, the end of France's six-year reign and the first British triumph since 1912. Fred Perry trounced the great Cochet in the fifth set of an other- wise haid-fought match, decided by scores of 8-10, 6-4, 8-6, 3-6, 6-1. Following upon the decisive vic- tory of Henry W. (Bunny) Austin over the youthful Andre Merlin, newcomer to Davis Cup play, by scores of 6-3, 6-4, 6-0, England thus gained a 2-0 lead and now needs only one more match to clinch the series Twenty-Five Dollars For Five Fresh Eggs-And It's A Bargain IVWUUl.111N11i {.lsavaa a v " "" v'-- 1 HOLLYWOOD, Calif., July 28-(P) |-It caused Miss Jane Thomas, $25 at $5 an egg today for hurling them at the ponderous David Hutton, es- tranged husband of Aimee Semple McPherson, during a stage appear- ance here last night. those eggs," Judge Clarke asked.
