PAGE FOUR THE MICHIGAN DAILY TIRsDAB, JULY 2, 1936 ... ... .. .... : .. Washington's Rubbercheck Promises To Bounce NEWS Of The DAY (From The Associated Press) Severe Floods Hit South Texas SAN ANTONIO, Tex., July 1. -(P)-Collapsing houses and wrecking a freight train in a 200- mile strip, a south Texas flood caused a mounting death toll listed at 21 tonight. At least 14 persons were miss- ing. Damage to cotton and corn crops was tremendous, growers reported. Hundreds of cattle per- ished. The rise of normally placid streams after two days of heavy rains trapped many families in their homes. The flood damage was particularly severe in the area about San Marcos, between Austin and San Antonio and to the south. Men, women and children per- ished in some cases after cling- ing as long as they could to the wreckage of houses being swept away. Others were rescued from treetops. The locomotive and ten cars of the freight train, a Missouri-Pa- cific, tumbled through a washed- out trestle. Nine Mexicans were huddled in the Gonzales' home, a few hun- dred yards from the train crash, when the house was wased away. Water poured into the residen- tial and business sections of Gon- zales. It stood a foot deep in the stores. The Guadalupe River flooded thousands of acres of corn and cotton. Rains varied from two to fourteen inches.

Claims Americans Are Isolationists (Continued trom Page 1) } in against the failing to benefit by the ample commercial possibilities existent during war-time. Any policy of cooperation with world powers by the United States would have to result in a front of the democratic states of the world against other nations, Professor Preuss said. "Italy and Germany have divorced themselves from what is known as 'the international community'. by their recent actions," he said. Professor Preuss concluded with a statement that if the people of the United States desire peace, they shall have to take definite steps for the preservation of such a peace. But, he added, the United States should not commit itself to follow stilted plans which might tie its hands in the event of an emergency. Despite any steps that may be taken, Professor Preuss felt that the United States will be drawn into a major conflict when it comes. He .urged, when the question of entry into a conflict was at hand, a calm weighing of the issues at hand in order that the country should not become a member of a war because of economic betterment or because of propaganda of a partisan nature. -Associated Press Photo.

In addition, the report of the Audi- tor-General showed, the state high- way fund closed the year with a cash balance of $4,181,179. A total of $43,- 000,000 was disbursed from this fund, apart from an estimated $10,000,000 expended by the federal government in highway work relief projects. The auditor general's report de- scribed the state's financial condi- tion as "sound." State officials attributed the strong treasury showing to reduced expendi- tures and revenues that were higher than had been expected. With few exceptions all departments and in- stitutions were compelled to adhere to a budget five per cent below the amounts the legislature had granted them. A legislative act had given the governor power to hold expenditures to the revenues in sight. With this authority Gov. Fitzgerald ordered the five per cent cut. The beginning of the new year brought an end to the five per cent cut. Gov. Fitzgerald announced in removing it that the prices of food and materials have advanced to a point making it impossible for some institutions to carry on their work on the reduced budgets. He expected, there would be a further increase in revenues in the next 12 months. The governor served notice that as long as he continued office the state' would adhere to his "pay as you go" policy. He hinted, also that should revenues drop sharply he might use his authority to reduce budgets again. They are apportioned on a monthly basis. Revenue from the sales tax, liquor taxes and the payment of de- linquent property taxes all were higher last year than had been ex- pected. Final figures on their yield will not be available until collections for June have been reported.

He has done new to Whitford Kane, guest director nearly all of his plays. It was his for the Michigan Repertory Players, interpretation of the part of "Rob- vnthoghheerts" in "Strife" that firs, attracted even oug e has been on the stage Mr. Galsworthy's attention. The for some thirty-five years. Mr. Kane noted author immediately st to work 1 i 1t : has also worked in the Universities of New York, Iowa, Syracuse and Washington during every leisure moment that he could spare away from his numerous theatrical engage- ments. The renowned Mr. Kane reminisced about his many experiences with the drama as he slouched down in a seat in the darkened Lydia Mendelssohn Theatre. "Ann Arbor's lucky to have a beau- tiful theatre like this,"he said en- thusiastically, "and I like Ann Arbor.} You know, I would have been herej last summer, if they hadn't had meI out it Hollywood making a movie. Hollywood's all right but-well, I'd rather teach than act. I'm a b4 tired of acting after all these years in the theatre." Mr. Kane appeared in "Hideout" with Robert Montgomery as Maureen O'Sullivan's farmer father. "They had me so dumb in that picture that I mistook gangsters for detectives," he laughed. "But I guess I was a kindly, lovable old man just the same." He fingered a couple of telegrams that he had in his pocket. "One of these is from Metro-Goldwyn-May- er," he said, "they want me to do 'Mike O'Davitt' in 'Parnell.' Thej other one's from the New York studio and they want me to do 'O'- Gorman Mahon' in the same pic- ture!" Mr. Kane admitted that the double offer was a bit confusing but he was- n't in the least worried about it for he doubted that they could wait for him until he finished his season with the Repertory Players. "I'd much rather be right where I am," he added. on a play which would suit Mr. Kane's versatile talent and the result was "The Pigeon" in which Mr. Kane en- acted the leading role. Mr. Kane said .that he cherishes in his possession 40 letters written to him by the famous playwright, in- cluding the first and the last. In one of them, Mr. Galsworthy said in reference to his work in "The Pigeon," "You know how tremendous- ly good I think your play is, and how it has quite spoilt me for the idea of.any one else in that part." Mr. Kane first appeared in "The Pigeon" in 1910. Mr. Galsworthy gave him the original manuscript, which he has proudly hoarded ever since. Mr. Kane is enjoying his work with Mr. Windt. He has a lot of confi- dence in the Repertory Players and said that he felt that their presen- tation of "Squaring the Circle" was better than the New York produc- WHITHER GOEST THOU?

GOOD Ll DOES [GHTING TS..' to your evening paper Y OU may not realize it, but reading a newspaper in poor light is a hard visual task. The combina- tion of small type on newsprint makes for poor visibility. Good lighting can greatly improve this. For scientists say that good light "magnifies" newspaper type . makes it easier to read ... by increasing the visibility of the black type and the gray-white paper. You'll enjoy your newspaper more with good lighting. To reduce otherwise annoying contrasts be sure to have other lights burning in the room.
