Student Loans
4i ~Pa;...
NLY a small proportion of the
money loaned to students is ever
returned, accordingto a recent opinion expressed
by a very misihformed graduate student in The
Daily's Campus Opinion column'. Hi opinion was
put forth at the same time he. suggesttd that the
recent Rackham bequet be used for ioutrght gift'
instead of for loans as the donor specified.
We Feel that a few facts quoted at this time may
help to clear up the nistakes that are assumed to
be. true by the graduate student, and' also serve to
ppint out the wisdom of making 'the fund available
for loans instead of for gifts:
An important consideration is the desire to per-
petuate the fund. If it were to be distributed as
gifts it would soon be a memory; and that never
would help a student in need of financial assist-
auce. Under the policy now being followed by Uni-
versity officials in charge of loan funds, the money
is" oaned and a small interest'charged, all of the
return being added to the. fund when it is repaid
aind'so serving to 'slowly build it tp to' help others
itY need.
Of course, our objector says that the money is
beot repaid and the purpose is defeated, but we
have to contradict hin in the light of facts that
hl evidently was ignorant of. Records show that
at present there are nearly 2,000 loans that have
gen z acde by authorities, more than 1,600 to men
Stdeits and, the rest to women. Of this large
num er, the records also show that the, number of
denquencies, even atpresent wheno niey is
1irobaably the scare st thig i the word, is ela-
tiv~e-I small. By delinquencies we mea accounts
that ar behind in repaynlents,'not ones definitely
losses, and they run only a little over 10 per cent
of the, total. Does 'that harnionize with a state-
men, unsupported; that student loans are usUally
losses? .. --
Even this 10 per cent is not recorded as being in
the uncollectable column, foi the students are still
making every effort to fulfill their obigations, with
a f ll' sense of the justice 'and honor involved.
Also scholarships, involving outright grants' of
mpn~ey, are often repaidl b1 receivers sothat'others
nly enjoy the sanie assistance they had, it has
ben revealed by those in charge, although re-
payments are most often anonyfnous. B1glievers in
the value of student loans, and we aile "aniong
them, claim that if a student has the makings of
an admirable member of society- he will prefer a
]gan that he can repay to a gift that might be
charaeterized as charity. .
Those who have received similar loans consider
them to be honor debts, made in a spirit of as-
sistance and to be settled with the same honor.
We see it as a part of a complete education--the
man is made to realize 'the value of money because
it is not given to him but is Wo'be later paid back,;
and'he is also taught one of' the' first lessons in
human relations-that obligations must be met
Fifty delinquent debts We'e reently turned over
to officials'of the Alumni Associatin in an effort
tp fhnd out what chances of' collction there were.'
T1rlpugh 'aluni of'the'niversity residing in the
hon cities of the 'debtors the stdents were con-
.tacted, their attitudes towards the money owed
by them to the University determined, and results
were obtained in all but four cases. These four
were distributed ovr the globe-two in' Soutli
Africa, one in this country, and one that could
not be reached. However, the replies seem to us to
constitute rather conclusive evidence that students
do repay their loans and that they do so not.
because of pressure that is brought to bear upon
them but because they realize they'honestly owe
the money and because they are ankious to fulfill,
obligations which they have incurred.
As a final justification of our opinion, we may
cite the results of interviews which 'we have had
with a number of students now holding loans from
the University funds. In every one of these con-
versations the students have stated that they are
heartily in accord with' the present system of
obligations realized, appreciated, and eventually1
met by the borrowers, and' that the funds arc
administered at present as fairly anid as fully to
those deserving theA as is possible.

This program as a whole is pleasingly musical
and will appeal to many on that account, as well
as because of the charm and variety in its sep-
arate divisions. Mr. Christian's first selection,
"Carillon Sortie" by Mult, makes a splendid.
opening number, vigorous and spectacular. Mult,
one of the younger French composers, was or-
ganst at the cathedral of Sare Coeur in Paris
during the War. He w'rote his Byzantine Sketches
at that time, of which this. is one part. Of an op-
f ppitc nature is Reger's "Benedictus," a miniature
of exquisite feeling. Closing the group is "Pastel
with 'Chorale," writte by Karg-Elet during the
middle period of his composition. This belongs not
to the famous Lake of Constance series, but to one
of Three Pastels. It has much of the same atmos-
phere although less harmonically involved and riot
as highly colored as the other. This Pastel ends
with a chorale on what is probably an original
theme since it has not been identified as yet with
any of the traditional Lutheran chorales." It is
of course. originally and characteristically har-
mnonized.
Mr. Hackett is singing a group completely Ger-
man. introduced by the (rornatic-) classic ele-
ment with his three Brahms. "Auf den Kirchofe"
portrays the story of life gradually fading into
the impersonal state of death. "Feldeinsamkeit"
is a melodious little song of meadows, sunshine
and clouds, while the "Wahrend des Regens" is
amusing and winsome. "Im Zitternden Monlicht
Wiegen" is by a modern German, Haile, who lives
in New York during the war, a paralytic, who
wrote many fine songs such as this. "Liebesfeuer"
by Weingartner, the well-known conductor, cli-
maxes this section of the program in a telling and
effective spirit.
The Second Trio in E-flat Major by Andreae, a
Swiss, living in the latter part of the last cen-
tury, has been chosen to conclude the evening's
program, played by Messrs. Besekirsky, Pick, and
Brinkman. In the usual three movements, it is
somewhat influenced by the effects current dur-
ing the time of its composition, having the rich-
ness and lustre of Wagner, the intricate wveaving
of voices that is typical of Strauss. "One spot in
the last movement is almost pure Grieg in feel-
ing." Andreae uses these effects, not the mate-
rials; he has his own ideas, his own gifts to rely
upon, and he does so without pretense. His writ-
ing is bus the product of the age.
This program, performed by experie~nced and
sincere musicians, promises to be entertainment
par excellence.
-E. S.P.
humorous quality about them, that-though it is
crudely formed in "Uncle Tom's Cabin"-is found
in many great works of art.
The reason is probably that Mrs. Stowe knew,
the people she. was writing about, and couldn't
see them wholly in the light of a thesis no matter
how much she felt the importance of that thesis.
All of which probably shows that there is a little
something in the idea that experience alone can,
grind out something artistic. We must certainly
account for Mrs. Stowe's success in something of
that way, fro all the rest of her writings were as
dull and boring as the worst pages of a feminist
magazine.

AT THE MICHIGAN
"WHEN LADIES MEET"
AN IDEAL PICTURE
FOR AN IDEAL CAST
Primarily a story of dialogue, not of action,
but of such flashimg, effervescent dialogue that it
isn't noticed, "Whn Ladies Meet" is one of thel
most thoroughly entertaining pictures we have1
seen in a long time. And'i ot only is it that, but'it
also handles a situation so artistically that what
might have resulted clumsily is actually brilliant.
Of course there could' be ncne able to surpass
Robert Montgomery as the boy in 'love with the
young authoress, Myrna Loy.' He has the kind of
lines that always seem to use to belong peculiarly
to him-lines that have half of their effect depen-
dent on the delivery. Robert has always been a
favorite of ours anyhow and with this latest per-
formance he clinches it even more. He' is madly
in love with Myrna and her other affair with' her
publisher, capably played by Frank Morgan causes
him to get into all sorts of difficulties trying to
win her back to him.
Ann Harding, more lovely and polished than
ever, takes the part of the wife of the philandering
publisher and is perfectly cast. In fact, now that
we've mentioned it, everyone in the picture is per-
fectly cast. Alice Foster is the other important
member of the cast-she's the comedy element
and plays host to all the others at her country
home where the excitement is centered.
Bob loves Myrna, she' is infatuated with Mor-
gan, the publisher, who in turn is married to
Ann. Myrna writes a book that' is practically an
autobiography of her affair with Morgan and he
agrees to publish it for her-actually only to
further his influence on her. Then the wife ar-
rives on the scene, incognito, at the request of
Bob who brought her there to see that the ladies
really did meet, and originally to make' Myrna
jealous. Morgan comes too though, rather unex-
pectedly, and from then on it's anyone's day.
..We can't tell you what happens after that
-you must go and find out for yourselves-but
even if we did it wouldn't spoil your enjoyment
because it isn't so much what happened as how it
was portrayed by the cast. If you can go to this
picture without first feeling sorry for Bob and
against Myrna and Morgan, then feeling that
Ann Harding is an example of the perfect wife
and Myrna is a victimized girl and hating Mor-
gan for deceiving them both, and finally ending
up with a feeling that they are all fine people
and that the end is as it should be, then you
just "ain't" human. At any rate, don't miss it or
your friends will make you regret it.

HARRIET BEECHER STQWE-
Author of "Uncle Tom's Cabin" which
will be produced' this week by The Mich-
igan Repertory Players.
By DAVID MOTT
Tolstoi in his essay on "What Is Art" classes
Harriet Beecher Stowe's famous abolitionist novel
as one of the greatest works of art. The reason
was that "Uncle Tom's Cabin" expressed emotions
more understandable to the vast majority of
pcople than most works of art. There is a great
deal pro and con (mostly con) in Tolstoi's theory,
but the fact remains that there has been a great
universal appeal in Mrs. Stowe's novel.
it was written as a propagandist piece against
the institution of slavery in 1852, and both as a
novel and a play it has been one of the most suc--
cessful works of literature in the last eighty years.
It his made more money than any play ever pro-
duced on the American stage. The novel has run
through thousands of editions, and has been
translated into over sixty languages-including
Siamese. Written in a sentimental age, with an
inspired sincerity, it has caused literally oceans of
tears to be shed. It was read around every country
store, and by every ladies' literary circle in the
Eighteen Fifties. Its force was so great that it is
accounted in American history books (check up
in' your- Beard's) as one of the prime forces mov-
ing the Civil War. It was a great document of so-
cial reform, written with an almost religious en-
thusiasm. These two factors which are important
in Tolstoy's philosophy are accountable for his
judgment of it as among the greatest works of
art.
Whether Mrs. Stowe thought it a great master-
piece is rather dubious. Though she wrote in the
"inspired" manner of the true nineteenth century
sentimentalist, though she felt that "all vital
force had left her" when she completed it, she
had no confidence in the work. It was only when
she saw some outrages performed against run-
away slaves in the streets of Washington that she
was finally excited to publish it.
Considering the sentimental and propagandist
notes of the story, it has become quite popular
nowadays to judge "Uncle Tom" as some of the
"godawfulest tripe that was ever passed on the
public." This may be a reaction against our sen-
timental grandparents, it may be the cry of the
art for art critic, or the judgment of the down-
right classically-minded. But the fact is that there
are elements of artistic greatness in Mrs. Stowe's
work. These elements are found chiefly in her
AT THE WHITNEY
"TI S SPORTING AGE"
(Showing Wednesday and Thursday)
Jack Holt, considered an excellent horseman in
his own rights, brings to his leading role in "This
Sporting Age" a sincerity which marks the film
as' one of the best in his career. His role is 'that
of a captain of cavalry, who obtains a berth on
the United States team for the international polo
matches. Holt, trained for years as an expert
horseman and considered one of the finer polo
players in Southern California, is well cast for the
role:
The polo game is the central theme around
which is woven a story of dramatic interest. In the
cast are Evalyn Knapp, Hardie Albright, Walter
Byron, J. Farrell MacDonald, Shirley Palmer, and
Nora Lane. 'A. F. Erickson and Andrew Bennison
were co-directors of the picture.
Editorial Comment
AVIATION'S NEW PROSPECT
While the world putters at its daily problems a
drama of tomorrow's commerce is making ready
for a dress rehearsal in the far north Atlantic.
Pan 'American airways, perhaps the most im-
portant airline in the world, has three expeditions
in the field making a complete survey in the vi-
cinity of Iceland and Greenland in co-operation
with Eurpean international airlines preparatory to
inaugurating a regular transatlantic mail and
passenger schedule.
Late last month the 3,500 ton freighter Jelling
left New York to join in the work and Colonel
Charles A. Lindbegh' is expected to take charge of
the flying survey before the end fo the summer.
The development of a Ndrth Atlantic air cross-
ing by an American firm has more significance
than appears at first glance. Already the Pan
American enjoys a virtual monopoly of the long
distance airway service in the Carribean and
South America. In addition the company owns one
of the major airlines in China.
Completion of a route across the Atlantic and
later of a line across 'the Pacific-perhaps by
way of the Bering sea and the Aleutian islands
-to China and Japan would mark the beginning
of an era in transportation as epoch-making as
that which the clipper ships started nearly a
century ago.
The success encountered by General Italo Balbo
and his Italian air armada will be valuable as an
indication of the feasibility of the crossing by
way of Iceland and Greenland and should serve
