Foul THE MICHIGAN DAILY IFRIDA , AUG. 7, 1936 Anti-Roosevelt Dems. Meet To Discuss Plans St. Louis Attorney Says Every Effort To Be Made To Beat Roosevelt DETROIT, Aug. 6.-()-A group of men once high in the councils of the Democratic party gathered here tonight for the avowed purpose of de- termining the most effective method of opposing the reelection of Presi- dent Roosevelt. From preliminary discussions, two courses of action-the establishment of an anti-New Deal Democratic ticket and an effort to swing Demo- cratic votes to Governor Landon- emerged to be given prominence in a formal statement by Sterling E. Ed- munds, St. Louis attorney who called the meeting for Friday. Interviewed at the same time, how- ever, Edmunds was quick to empha- size that these were only suggestions and to add that the 30 to 40 whom he expected to attend would canvass all possibilities in a closed session "where every man will be free to express his views." Enumerates Others Among those who will attend he enumerated: James A. Reed, former Democratic Senator from Missouri; Joseph B. Ely, former Democratic Governor of Massachusetts; Bain- bridge Colby, secretary of state in the administration of Woodrow Wil- son; Daniel F. Cohalen of New York, a former judge and long-time sup- porter of Alfred E. Smith; Henry Breckinridge who opposed President Roosevelt in several Democratic presi- dential primaries; Thomas F. Cald- wallader who managed Breckinridge's Maryland campaign; John Henry Kirby, Texas Democrat, William A. Comstock, former Democratic gov- ernor of Michigan and Judge Eugene C. Bonniwell, twice Democratic nom- inee for governor of Pennsylvania. Alfred E. Smith, who with Colby, Ely, Reed and Cohalen joined in a plea to the Democratic convention to "put aside" President Roosevelt has announced he will not attend. The Detroit developments came on a day relatively quiet politically. Asked to define the purpose of the Detroit meeting Edmunds said it was to see what "Democrats who believe as we do can do to defeat Mr. Roose- velt." For 30 years ,he said, he has been a student of constitutional law, adding that he was interested pri- marily,in "stopping the absorption of the powers of the states through leg-. islative construction ratler than through an amendment" tothe con- stitution. Predicts Federal Despotism "The New Deal will establish a centralized Federal despotism unless these policies are checked," he added. Former Senator Reed, among the early arrivals ,was reluctant to dis- cuss the meeting. Asked for his definition of the pur- pose of the gathering, Reed shotback: "I know what I want to do. I want to do what I can to preserve the con- stitution and the independence of the courts and stop wasting the people's substance." He said the conference idea began with "some of us discussing whether it wouldn't be a good thing to get to- gether and talk things over." Through publicity, Reed added, the "thing has gotten out of hand." The original idea, he said, was to have a meeting of five or six people. "We've tried to keep it down to a conference," he said. "There was no idea of holding a convention, al- though I suppose we could have got- ten thousands here for a convention." The possibility of a larger meeting later was held out however, in Ed- munds' formal statement, issued after a conference with Reed. Major Leagues Quadruplets Are Ready To Make Professional Bows Officials Begin Probe Of Fatal Airliner Crash Cause Of Accident Sought In Wreckage; Witnesses Aid Investigation icontinued trofn Page 1' ishly for the plane. They discovered it, a scattered, tangled mass of wreck- age, early today on a farm four miles north of the airport. All of the victims, except one, had been thrown from their seats into the plowed field. Apparently all were killed instantly. The plane took off at 9:56 p.m. on tne last leg of its regular New Or- lears-Chicago flight. The weather , s threatening, with overcast skies and a light fog, but clear conditions were reported north of Springfield, Ill. From the time of the take-off until th crash, no word was heard from the crew, although the $50,000 all- metal Lockheed-electra monoplane was equipped with the latest type 2- way radio. The operator at the field gave Zier a call at 10:02 p,m., but there was no answer. Zier's watch, smashed dur- ing the crash, was stopped exactly at that time. A few minutes after the plane took off, Ben Knoebbe, a farmer living near the field, said he saw its red and green riding lights and heard its motors. "He was very low," Knoebbe said, "and I was surprised to see him start to the left-the West-as he got to my place. He was so very low as he passed me that he grazed two tall trees near my house, very lightly, and knocked leaves from them.' As the plane swung on in a wide circle, it was sighted by Ralph L. Sharp, Fairfield, O., vacationing on a farm a mile north of Knoe1be's. . "When I first saw the plane, it was very low, about 50 feet from the ground," Sharp related. "As I watched, it made a steep bank to the left and passed beyond my vision over a hill. Then I heard a terrible crash." From marks on the harrowed ground, it appeared the left wing struck first and the plane turned end over end, disintegrating as it car- ried 150 yards down the field. Examination of the plane, reduced to twisted junk, showed the landing gear was retracted when the ship fell, indicating Zier was not attempt- ing to land when the crash came. A succinct comment came from Carleton Putnam, president of Chi- Cago and Southern, in announcing the accident. He said: "It was one of those things that can't happen but still did." U. Of M.

New Baltimore, according to Uni- versity of Michigan Museum scien- tists now working on the site. , From the nature of articles found in the graves, the burials were made about 250 years ago. The relics in- clude beads and other things given by the early fur traders, as well as sev- eral silver Jesuit crosses made by Robert Cruikshank, a noted Montreal silversmith. Attention was attracted to the region by the number of skele- tons unearthed by builders of cot-f tages along the shore. Though most of the skeletons weret buried after the coming of the white men to Michigan, Dr. Emerson F. Greenman has discovered nearby two graves in which no white traders goods were found. These may have been "pre-contact" aborigines, al- though they certainly do not date back as far as the skeletons of the builders of the Lapeer County stock- ades, discovered last year. The lat- ter died approximately 800 years ago. New Military Machines Used In War Games FORT KNOX, Ky., Aug. 6.-()- Uncle Sam's newest engines of war went into action on the rough terrain of this military reservation today, striking hard and effectively against superior numbers in the first phase of second army war practice maneuvers. Shock troops of the "red" forces, armored combat cars, mechanized and motorized artillery and motorized infantry with some 2,000.-men, struck swiftly at advance columns of 20,- 000 "blue" troops in several inde- cisive engagements. Tonight, the reds had inflicted severe theoretical damage, with blank ammunition, but had withdrawn southward with the apparent intention of remobilizing for another attack. Blue infantrymen meanwhile con- tinued to advance southward in four columns late today, supported by their own artillery. Principal dam- age to their forces occurred when the reds theoretically wiped out advance scouts of the 123rd Cavalry, Ken- tucky National Guard, at the day's first engagament at New Stithton, and during heavy banging of guns when the opposing forces "made con- tact" at McClellan ridge, east of Fort Knox EVENING RADIO PROGRAMS 6:00-WWJ Ty Tyson.

Dillman, former Michigan State Highway Commissioner and Welfare Director, formally accepted the presidency of the Michigan Col- lege of Mining and Technology today at elaborate inauguration ceremonies staged in the new amphidrome as the highlight of the College's 50th anni- versary reunion. After reviewing the history of Michigan Tech and presenting a resume of its achievements and de- velopment to one of the world's fore- most engineering educational insti- tutions, President Dillman struck sharply at many of the present day methods he said he considers obso- lete. "This is a period of changing social and economic conditions," he declared before the several thousand alumni and guests. "We no longer have a western frontier that for genera- tions was the 'safety valve' in times of depressions. The present genera- tion finds life more complex and youth is faced with many false lead- ers. The young man has more de- cisions to make. His post-war years have been difficult to interpret and in recent years he probably has been faced with want and has been tempt- ed by false guides; yet he has been keeping his feet on the ground about as well as his elders. These are the young men who are now being en- rolled in college. They need guid- ance, not sympathy; they must be given every opportunity to develop their initiative." Bell In Finals As Tournament NearsWind-Up Bill Bell entered the finals in the singles division of the Summer Ses- sion Intramural tennis tournament by defeating Marvin Bacon, 6-1, 6-4.
