Freedo0-M Is Debated Education Conferees Hold That Indoctrination Is JustifiedI Teachers Opposed To Regimentation Social Obligations, Factual Bases, Individual Types1 Should Control Teaching By TUURE TENANDER 1 Academic freedom is a real issue in education today in the opinion of1 the great majority of teachers, super- intendents and other school officials who yesterday afternoon filled the3 Union ballroom for the sixth session1 of the Summer Education Conference. Prof. Stuart A. Courtis of the edu- cation school conducted a test de- vised to secure the reaction of mem- bers of the audience to the question of what academic freedom really means. Although opinion was widespread,1 more people were of the opinion that a teacher should be in a position in , which he could indoctrinate pupils to a certain extent. This indoctrin- ation was to be controlled, however. Four basic principles were included, in the program of the man who held The topic for the eighth ses- sion of the Education Conference,1 which will be held at 10 a.m. to- day in the Union, will be "Select- ed Programs and Policies of the State, Department of Public In- struction." Dr. Eugene B. El- liott, State Superintendent of Public Instruction will conduct this session. "Does the Present Program of the. School Fail in its Emphasis on the Development of Pupil Personality?" will be the subject of the session to be held at 2 p.m. today, also in the Union. Prof. Howard Y. McClusky of the ed- ucation school will present the issues and the discussion will be led by John M. Trytten, alsoof the education school. this typical view of "controlled in- doctrination." The first was that "improvement of the condition of living, and of all in- dividual and social activity, is both possible and desirable." The second principle, prepared by Professor Courtis, was "that the individual's chief social obligation in life is to work for the betterment of society by cooperative and creative planning and action." The third plank in this platform was "that the only practical basis for cooperative action is factual knowledge derived from scientific in- vestigations; that group decision and planning should rest on a fact basis."

Huge Mirror Is Poured Again For New University Telescope 96-Inch Reflector Will Be World's Third Largest; First Attempt Failure By ARNOLD S. DANIELS Against a background of blinding white heat, and with painstaking care and skill, asbestos-clothed work- men of the Corning Glass Works Monday poured the great 96-inch re- flector for the proposed University observatory at Base Lake. This, the second attempt at pour- ing the mirror, which will be the third largest in the world, was at- tended by success as far as can now be discovered. Professors Heber Cur- tis, W. Carl Rufus and Hazel M. Losh motored to Corning, N. Y., to attend the operation, which was conducted with the heat at 102 degrees, and the temperature of the great ovens holding the special pyrex glass at 1,- 600 degrees centigrade. The process of pouring the molten glass into the mold was carried out by a large squad of men wearing as- bestos aprons and sleeves, with light boards slotted with blue glass pro- tecting their faces and eyes. The liquid was carried from the ovens to the mold by a great ladle, which dipped up about 500 pounds each time. The eight men on the 15-foot handle of the ladle then swung it across to the mold after impurities had been skimmed off, carefully in- serted it through a small door which was opened at just the right moment for them by another worker, and slowly poured the thick, white-hot glass. The filling of the mold re- quired 29 ladlings from the ovens. After every time that the ladle had been emptied, it was cooled in wa- ter, so that it could not become hot enough to permit particles of the met- al to mix with the glass, a small er- ror which would ruin the mirror, and which could not be discovered until it had cooled to room temperature, Isaacs Tells Anemia Cause And Treatment Outlines The Developnment In Perfecting The Cures For Blood Disease Substituting for Dr. Cyrus C. Stur- gis, director of the Simpson Memo- rial Institute, the assistant director, Dr. Ralphael Isaacs yesterday out- lined the causes and treatments of anemia before an audience of'200 in Natural Science Auditorium. Anemia is a manifestation of a de- ficiency of red blood corpuscles, he said. These are produced in the mar- row of the bones and pass through five stages in -their growth. Per- nicious anemia. the most common form according to Dr. Isaacs, occurs when the red corpuscles are arrested at the third stage due to a lack of enzymes. These combine with the food to produce a secretion in the liver which supplies this factor for red corpuscles. Treatment was first made by con- sumption of one-half a pound of liver a day by the patient, but Dr. Isaacs said, the patient frequently found this remedy worse than the disease. Soon liver extract was developed and the dose was reduced to a few teaspoons- full a day. The latest development came six years ago with the per- fection of a concentrate which is given every month in intervenous or intramuscular injections. Iron deficiency anemia, where the hydrochloric acid fails to take enough iron from the blood to change the corpuscles from the third stage, is treated by doses of pure metallic iron in powder form. Aplactic anemia which arrests the cells in the first stage is now considered the most dangerous, Dr. Isaacs said. The only treatment is continuous blood trans- fusions. Dr. Isaacs showed slides of a num- ber of patent medicines and cure-alls which made various claims concern- ing anemia cures. They were univer- sally useless though for the most part harmless. One compound which re- tailed at $2.50 for 12 oz. would have to be consumed in gallon quantities every day to give the results it claimed. when it is examined for the first time. The mold itself, 97.5 inches in di- ameter, resembles nothing more than a great igloo. It had been heated since the night before by ten roaring jets of natural gas, and during the pouring, other jets were played over the material in the tank. The noise made by the jets was so great that most of the operations were carried on by sign. While the mold door_ was kept closed during pourings, the door of the oven was occasionally swung open so that the "hot gang" could skim off impurities floating on the surface of the molten pyrex. In all, about 10,750 pounds of the liquid glass was poured into the mold, the small quantities which clung to the ladle each time being discarded. Tuesday, the gas jets were turned off in the mold, which is now heated4 by a system of electric coils. In the7 "annealing oven," the disk will slow- ly be cooled, at a rate of one and three-quarters degrees per day, and (Continuea on Page 3) Capacity Crowd, Witnesses First Night Of Play, 'Mary Of Scotland' Draws1 Prominent Members Of Summer Session Faculty A capacity crowd filled the Lydia Mendelssohn theatre last night to+ witness the opening performance of Maxwell Anderson's "Mary of Scot- land," the fourth play of the Summer Session to be presented by the Michi- gan Repertory Players. In the audience who gathered to see the tragic drama of Mary Queen of Scots, a Broadway success of last year with Helen Hayes in the title role, was Whitford Kane, disting- uished English actor who is guest di- rector for the Repertory Players this summer. Next week Mr. Kane will make his first appearance as a di- rector this summer in John Gals- worthy's "The Pigeon," in which he will also play the leading role. Many other frequent first-nighters of the faculty were present, among them Prof. Louis Hopkins, director of the Summer Session, and Mrs. Hop- kins, Prof. Herbert Kenyon of the Spanish department and Mrs. Ken- yon, Prof. Jesse S. Reeves of the po- litical science department, and Mrs. Reeves and Charles E. Koella of the French department and Mrs. Koella. Also present were Prof. Max Hand- man of the economics department and Mrs. Handman and Mr. and Mrs. Frederick P. Jordan. Mrs. Jordan is dean of women-emeritus. Prof. Louis Eich of the speech de- partment, secretary of the Summer Session, attended with Mrs. Eich. Prof. Earl V. Moore, musical director of the School of Music, who recently returned from England where he tested out the bells for the Baird Carillon, was seen with Mrs. Moore. Prof. Arthur E. Wood of the so- ciology department and Mrs. Wood also attended the opening, and others who were present were Prof. Robert P. Briggs of the economics depart- ment and Mrs. Briggs, and Prof. Hugo Thieme of the French depart- ment and Mrs. Thieme. Sundwall Cites Need Of Humani 'Conservation' An urgent need for "human con- ' servation" was outlined last night by Dr. John Sundwall, professor of hy- giene and public health, in an ad- dress to students and faculty in Uni- versity High School. "The time is not far distant," he said, "when all children in America will be attend- ing nursery schools. This will help increase the percentage of good health in later years." Various forces have shifted the in- terest toward a better health move- ment, according to Dr. Sundwall who pointed especially to the greater scientific knowledge of psychology and physiology in the past century. "There is a need for human con- servation and particularly adult con- servation," the hygienist declared ir his lecture, "Trends in Health Edu- cationThroughout the Nation."

Gannet Pays Visit To Landon In Topeka Governor's Mansion TOPEKA, Kans., July 15.-(3)- Gov. Alf M. Landon and Col. Frank Knox compared notes on their accep- tance speeches today and charted an anti-New Deal campaign which gave Knox the Northwest for his first major speaking tour. Datesdand exact itineraries were not fixed. Some observers felt Lan- don would strike first in the East. possibly with an aGaress at West Middlesex, Pa., his birthplace. At a desk in Landon's study they discussed the acceptance addresses they will deliver when formally noti- fied of their nominations. Rep. Ber- trand Snell of New York, permanent chairman of the Cleveland conven- tion, will notify Landon at Topeka July 23; Sen. Frederick Steiwer of Oregon, temporary chairman and keynoter, will notify Knox at Chi- cago July 30. Knox said the campaign itineraries would be arranged so he and Landon would not be in the same territory at the same time, but emphasized none had been set up definitely. "I am returning to Chicago tonight for a couple of days," Knox said. "On Friday I will go to New Hampshire to get in 10 days of solid work on my speeches. "After my notification, my first speech will be at an Indiana Re- publican meeting at Connersville Aug. 8. I will address a West Vir- ginia rally at Huntington Aug. 13." On some date after these speeches, Knox said he would make his north- west trip. "Do you think your campaign plans will prove effective," Knox was asked. "I'll say I do," the Vice-Presiden- tial candidate replied. "I expect to get into the Maine campaign sometime before the elec- tion Sept. 14," he said, "but no date has been fixed yet."' Another Topeka visitor today was Frank E. Gannett, Rochester, N. Y., publisher, for whom former-Sen. Henry J. Allen entertained at dinner. Gannett supported Borah in the pre- convention campaign. Individually, both Landon and Knox expressed gratification at an- nouncement of Col. Breckinridge, anti-New Deal Democrat who con- tested President Roosevelt's renom- ination in several states, that he would "vote" for the Republican ticket. Urge Law For Old A e Pay To State Workers LANSING, July 14.-(A)-The State civil service study commission asked Gov. Frank D. Fitzgerald today to present to the next legislature the problem of providing pensions for veteran State employes. The commission asserted in a re- port to the governor that pensions not only would be fairer to those whc spend years in government service but actually would result in econo- mies. Prof. James K. Pollock, of Anr Arbor, the commission chairman, saic 780 full-time State employes are more than 60 years old-443 of their between 61 and and 65 years of age; 225 between 66 and 70; 79 betweer 71 and 79; 27 in another group arl between 76 and 80, and six are past 80. '"It will pay the State government to make a constructive attack on thi problem," Pollock said in a prelimin. ary report to the governor." Fo: 1 years superannuated employes hav been carried on the State payroll be- e cause it seemed inhuman to dismiss them. The difference between th( Lewis Faction Will Be Tried By A. F. Of L. Executive Council Decides To Try Twelve Unions For 'Insurrection' r a c i Lewis And Hillman' Withhold Comment Green Accused Of Uniting With Steel Industry To Block Unionization1 WASHINGTON, July 15. - () - A threatened split in the American Federation of Labor was averted for the time being, at least, today when the Federation's executive council de- cided to give 12 unions a trial August 3 on formal charges of "insurrec- tion." The council took this step instead of immediately suspending these unions so as to give Federation peace- makers an opportunity to try to heal the breach between the rebel faction favoring the organization of all the workers in each big industry into one big union and the faction which thinks skilled workers should be or- ganized into craft unions. John L. Lewis, president of the United Mine Workers, heads the rebels who have banded together in the committee for industrial organi- I zation., William Green, A.F. of L. president, is spokesman for the craft. unions which control the council. John P. Frey, president of the fed- eration's metal trades department. Ibrought the five charges upon which the 12 unions are to be tried. Briefly, they were: Setting up a "dual organization" (the committee for industrial organ- ization) which has "competed" with the A. F.of L.; insurrection; viola- tion of contracts with the A. F. of L., and violation of the Atlantic City convention's declaration of organiza- tion policy (drafted by the craft union majority). Neither Lewis nor Sidney Hillman, president of the Amalgamated Cloth- ing Workers and another leader of the industrial union faction, would comment on the council's decision. Both just smiled. Green speculated at length on the outcome of today's decision. He said he was not sure that the rebels would appear for the trial. If they did and the trials were concluded, the council would have three courses to choose from: To suspend the unions, to de- cide on "other penalties"-he did not elaborate-or to "forgive and forget." Shortly before the council decided to hold the trial, an editorial in the "United Mine Workers Journal" ac- cused the council of joining hands with the steel industry to block union- ization. Education Club To Hold Picnic Today The Men's Education Club will pic- nic at Portage Lake this afternoon, it was announced yesterday by Dr. Luther Purdom, director of the Bu- reau of Appointments and Occupa- tional Information, who is in charge of the picnic. He expects an at- tendance of more than 200 persons. Cars which will transport club members to Portage Lake will leave regularly from the University High School between 4 and 4:30 p.m. Reservations for tickets, which will cost 75 cents, must be made in the office of the dean of the School of Education. Here Wednesday Fifty sun-tanned campers from the Fresh Air Camp will campaign for $1,000 in contributions, Wednesday, July 22, to defray the expenses of the 300 boys at the Fresh Air Camp. The campers will take their posts on the campus and in the business district at 7 a.m. and remain there until 3 p.m., when they will return to camp for a promised swim. George Alder, camp director, ex- pressed hopes that citizens of Ann Arbor would respond to the campaign as they have those in the past. He explained that the camp "is pressed for funds. New expenses have arisen. Some expenses have increased." Counselors of the camp will ac- company the soliciting campers in the drive. Yanks, Tigers Split In Opening Day Of Series Sub-Arctic Winds Cool Mid-West Thunder Showers Between Missouri River And N.Y. Relieve Torrid Condition Substantial Crop Recoveries Likely Wheat Milk Face And Corn Rise Prices Go Up Of Shortage As In Goose Goslin Stars At Detroit Takes First, Loses Second, 7-4 Bat; 5-1, NEW YORK, July 15. - (/) - The League-leading Yankees and second- place Detroit Tigers divided honors] today in the doubleheader opener1 of their "crucial" series, as MickeyI Cochrane returned to his job as man- ager of the world's champions. j Goose Goslin's homer with two mates on base, and Schoolboy Rowe's seven-hit pitching gave the Tigers the first game 5 to 1, but the Yanks came back to score early in the sec- ond game, and behind Pat Malone's tight relief pitching pulled out a 71 to 4 decision. The split left the Yanks' league lead at nine games, despite their re-j cent slump. A crowd of 50,000 turned out. Rowe Takes Mound In the opener, Rowe and Charley Ruffing hooked up in a pitching duel for most of the way, with the De- troit hurler taking the edge in the fourth when Goslin's three-run homer climaxed a four-run spree. Charley Gehringer wound up the scor- ing with a circuit clout in the eighth. The only Yankee run came in the third, when Rowe walked three men to force the tally. In the nightcap, Victor Sorrell, the Tigers' starter, was unable to go through the third inning, largely be- cause the Detroit infield fell apart. Two runs in the fourth, on Joe Di Maggio's double, two walks, a wild pitch and Frank Crossetti's long fly, and another tally in the eighth on singles by Di Maggio and Tony Laz- zeri wound up the New York scor- ing. Tigers Route Gomez The Tigers clubbed Lefty Gomez off the mound with a three-run bar- rage in the fifth inning, featured by .Goslin's triple with the bases loaded, but were unable to get to Malone from there on to the finish. Rowe opened the Tigers' four-run attack in the third inning of the first game with a single. It was the first hit off Ruffing. Then Burns singled and Rogell beat out a bunt, filling the bases. Rowe scored on Gehringer's fly and then came Gos- lin's homer, his thirteenth of the season. Walker flied and Simmons grounded to end the rally. The Yankee run came in their half of the same inning. Ruffing singled, but was forced by Powell, who promptly stole second. Rolfe walked and so did Gehrig, filling the bases. (Continued on Page 4) CHICAGO, July 15. - (P)-- A re- rigerant air mass from the Hudson ay region routed the heat wave on wide Mid-Western and Great Lake ront today but drought maintained s sway on western plains. From the Iowa-Nebraska border as ar East as New York, living and orking conditions were more toler- ,ble as the cool air, aided by scat- ered thunder showers, got in its wel- ome work. But another day was chalked up or the record stay of higher than 00-degree heat-its 13th-in sec- ions where the cooling breezes failed o penetrate and fatalities ascribed o the torrid spell, though their rate vas reduced somewhat, passed 3,750 or the period. Early in the afternoon, Quincy, on entral Illinois' western boundary, eported a 112-degree maximum. )ther "hot spots" were Indianapolis, .02.9; Clarendon, Tex., 110; Welling- ,on, Kans., 111; Falls City, Neb., 106; Cansas City, Mo., 102; and Ponca ity, Okla., 108. Approaching '34 Severity In the latter state, K. D. Blood, ederal crop statistician, said the irought situation was approaching in everity that of 1934. He said most armers had feed and water for only Lbout ten days more. Grasshoppers vere additional crop destroyers. In Washington, the Federat crop eporting board estimated that this 'ear would be second only to the 'great drought"-1934-in reduced 'eed grain yields, that hay yields would be as light as other drought rears excluding 1934, and that a sub- itantial recovery for the nation's corn rop would be realized for "a consid- rable portion." New relief measures announced luring the day in Washington added portions of a 13th state, Colorado, o the drought emergency group and included additional counties in Okla- ioma. Seven states in the southern dry belt were allotted $624,000 by the resettlement administration for sub- istence provision. Market Goes Up While residents of Michigan, parts of Illinois, Wisconsin, and Minne- sota-among the states which have suffered the heaviest losses in life from heat-revelled in cooler wea- ther disappointment of the grain trade at the failure of a general onslaught on the drought to ma- terialize was reflected in higher prices. Corn led the bulge with a net gain of around three cents, Septem- ber closing at 82/8-83. Chicago wheat prices were up over two cents, Sep- tember's finish was at $1.04/8-/. Milk prices were advanced in at least two additional cities, Pittsburgh, Pa., and Freeport, Ill., because of the drought reductions in the flow. Con- cern was beginning to be manifested in other food lines as to the ultimate effect of the dry spell on retail prices. Minnesota's total fatalities from the heat wave were counted at 733, highest of any state; Michigan's at 566; Illinois' at 461, up 95 over yester- (Continued on Page 4) Guest Teacher To Give Leceture On Humanism Prof. H.

Professor Jones, who is a member of the Summer Session English de- partment faculty, specializes in Ren- aissance literature. He has been managing editor of the Journal of English and Germanic Philology since 1927. Graduated from Harvard Univer- sity in 1901, Professor Jones began his teaching career at the University of Missouri in 1901. He returned to Jamison Sees Threat Of Unions As Beneficial To Steel Workers By RALPH W. HURD The anti-union hostility of steel industry employers, at present the object of nation-wide concern in re- gard to threatening labor disturb-; ances at Homestead, Pa., was ex- plained, partially justified and par- tially criticized by Prof. C. L. Jami- son of the business administration school, himself a former executive in that industry, in an interview yes-' terday. Important to an analysis of this anti-union hostility; in the opinion of' Professor Jamison, are these factors: 1) The long-cherished hope of a "partnership relation" between non- unionized steel workers and their and the profound belief in the vulner- ability of even reputable unions to the promotional efforts of racketeers -which beliefs almost define the thinking of those in control of the steel industry. Imbued with this hope for a "part- ' nership relation," realizing the sus- ceptibility of their unskilled laborers, mindful of the bankruptcies which accompanied unionization of coal en- terprises, hating John L. Lewis and his cohorts as a bull hates a red flag, steel employers stand ready to fight unionization with all the resources and all the ruthlessness at their com- mand.
