THE MICHIGAN DAILY THURSDAY, JULY McCrea Looks For-New Clues In Ferris Case' Ferris Linked With Ring Of Milk Bottle Thefts In Statement Of His Wife Deny Mistreatment Hearing On Habeas Corpus Writ Postponed Pending Further Investigation DETROIT, July 3 - Recorder's Judge Christopher E. Stein post- poned a hearing today on a habeas corpus writ sought by William Lee Ferris, also known as William Sweitz- er, confessed slayer of Howard Carter Dickinson, after Prosecutor Duncan C. McCrea said "There are angles in this case we still have to investigate." Prosecutor Duncan C. McCrea had planned to file first degree murder warrants against Ferris and two of the three "party girls" held with him, but delayed this action when the court granted the postponement of the hearing until Friday. Hints Other Crimes "I am still convinced that Ferris was implicated in other criminal ac- tivities," said the prosecutor. The prosecutor had intended to name in murder warrants Ferris and Florence and Loretta Jackson, sis- ters who formerly danced in cheap cafes and burlesque houses. McCrea plans to use Jean Miller, the third woman held, as a state wit- ness. It was her statement, McCrea said, that convinced him the four had planned the "cocktail bar racket" which enticed the New York attorney to his death last week. The confessions of the four said they expected to find at least a thous- and dollars in Dickinson's pockets, instead f ony $34. Prosecutor McCrea revealed today that his questioning of Mrs. Violet Ferris, 22, Ferris' wife, late yesterday, linked her husband with a milk bot- tle theft ring which he said robbed 22 creameries of $2,500 worth of bot- tles in 1932. Ferris' Wife Is Diver Mrs. Ferris, a carnival high diver before her marriage six years ago, told McCea her husband came home and calmly packed his clothes last Thursday, the day Dickinson's body was found in Rouge park. Attaches at police headquarters said Ferris has become temperament- al and sleeps on the floor instead of the bunk in his cell. Police superintendent John P. Smith flatly denies the assertion of Ferris' attorney, Ernest Goodman, that his client has been mistreated by the police.p Meanwhile a wall of bitterness sep- arate the Jackson sisters from Fer- ris. They told interviewers they were "bitter as hell" toward Ferris, al- though ;they described in their con- fessions how they planned with him to relieve Dickinson of the large sum of money they thought he carried.

I I Graphic Picture Of Human Behavior Of Economic, Social Importance SYRACUSE, N. Y., July 3.-- (A') - A graphic method of portraying mea- sured human reactions, called the "J" curve, has been worked out by Floyd H. Alport, Ph.D., professor of psychology, Syracuse university. The measurements on which the "J" curve is based would take the guesswork out of many of the prob- lems now troubling leaders trying to improve social and economic condi- tions. It is not a one-man product, but the result of studies by several scientific collaborators. The curve is a reversed capital J, without the tail being turned up. Its top represents the maximum number of persons likely to conform to a law, rule or social custom. Its tail shows the numbers who fail to conform in varying, progressive degrees. The slope of this tail is always down, in- dicating decrease in non-conformists. Most Autoists Obey Signals A simple illustration is the conduct of autoists at traffic signals. Those obeying are the majority, the top of the J. The tail shows exactly the extent to which the regulations fail. The curve has been tested in nu- merous other ways, such as singing in church, and getting to work on time. It is even said to work when ap- plied to cows coming home to be milked. Their internal urging, train- ing and waning daylight bring them home in a J curve peak. Among humans, the J curve shows the conflicts between social restric- tions and customs and natural im- pulses. It will measure the effective- ness and firmness of a leader's con- trot. It is applicable to all vocations. When a large number of vocations show steep J curves, it means there may be little individual freedom in those callings. Natural Inclinations Curbed A thoroughly regimented society would show groups of activities all having high peaks in their J curves. That condition would represent great efficiency, from the standpoint of so- cialization and planning. It might not, Dr. Allport points LONDON, July 3.- (AP) -The theor that London was named after Helet of Troy is offered by Harold Bayley author of a new study of ancien London. He takes issue with writers wh contend there was no town here be fore the Roman occupation in 43 A.I In Bayley's book, an ancient leg end that London was founded b Trojans is recalled. At any rate, ther was supposed to have been a shrin to a Helen, presumably the famou. Trojan heroine, on the hill now sur mounted by St. Paul's Cathedral. Before the Romans built a temp] to Diana there, this Helen, like he successor, was portrayed as a huntres with a greyhound beside her. There were Cockneys even in earl Celtic times, it is contended.

Public Demand Attempt To Prevent Open Break By Appointing Educating Committee DENVER, July 3.-(AP) - Recon- ciliation by resolution - a favorite convention cure -was sought behind bolted doors today by leaders of the National Educational association for ending demands for,"academic free- dom." The Denver News said it had learned the first draft of one resolu- tion in committee recommends the appointment of a committee of five to educate the public- on the question and to investigate cases of asserted prosecution., "It (such a resolution)," said Fred-+ erick L. Redefer, Washington, D.C., "is wholly inadequate to protect the principle of academic freedom. "There is absolutely no provision for action." Eager to dispose ofh the abstract arguments, the delegates gave in-{ creasing attention to the election of; officers. A choice, in the words of Dr. Willis A. Sutton, Atlanta, Ga., educa-; tor, among "a Vermont violet, a Mass- achusetts rose and an Iowa prairie flower." The candidates are Anne C. Wood- ward, Somerville, Mass.; Agnes Sam- uelson, Des Moines, Ia.; and Caroline Woodruff, Carleton, Vt. They have said they would be guid- ed by convention action on the "aca- demic freedom" question. Neither the final proposals of the resolutions committee nor the election will be reached until tomorrow, but the finger of delegate interest al- ready was pointed at the committee room, where Chairman George T. Avery of Fort Collins, Colo., directed executive sessions on controversial expressions. Portuguese Jails Pay For Inmates LISBON, July 3. -(P)- The Por- tuguese government wants jailbirds, offering them 75 cents a day and their food with a guarantee that they will not have to work. The prisons in which they will be confined form part of a reconstruc- tion of the capital as it was 300 years ago, one of the attractions of the "city festival" now being held. But the jail-birds are not. proving so easy to catch. Plenty of real pris- oners in Lisbon's penitentiaries have offered their services, but the govern- ment has declined these offers,. be- cause the facsimile. of the jail has lath and plaster walls. The Careers And Personalities Of Our Senators: William Borah 7. WILLIAM E. BORAH WASHINGTON, - July 3. - (P) - Once again the political spotlight swings around to disclose the tall, an- gular, bushy-haired figure of a man who has stood in its rays for almost a quarter of a century - William Ed- gar Borah, Republican senior senator from Idaho. Long prominent as one of the Sen- Prof. Sharman Tells Of Camps And Education (Continued from Page 1) in camping,,Professor Sharman stat- ed. Among these trends are the de- clining birth rate, the restriction of immigration, the increasingly excel- lent general health of the nation, the influence of science and inven- tion, the increase in the number of women gainfully employed, and the decrease in child labor and the con- sequent added leisure time for youth. "Camp environment and situations afford opportunities for individual and group learning by doing," Professor Sharman emphasized. "The camper's attitude is at the best for learning because attendance is voluntary. He wants to be there and do things. Of course, too, there is a freedom of choice of activity, and interest thus goes deep. "The finest opportunity for an unbroken educational process is af- forded by the camps, since the young campers are under continuous super- vision without any outside interfer- ence. The camp and its activities form an isolated environment mak- ing it possible to have a maximum of camp influence and a minimum of outside distraction.' "Economic and social barriers are at a minimum. Outside status and pressures are practically -eliminated." In the boys' and girls' camps group relations and the interdependencies of campers are richer and more in- tensive, Professor Sharman added. The camps are natural, active, and purposeful, he said, and this stimu- lates children to care for themselves, to adjust themselves under semi- primitive conditions, to utilize .their knowledge and understanding of mat- ters of hygiene, nature, and the essen- tials of civic responsibility and cit- izenship. ate's leading authorities on world af- fairs, he now stands as out as advocate of a G.O.P. purge.. His 70 years have left the "lone wolf of politics" slightly stooped. He has sharp eyes and a firm mouth that becomes a hard line across a rather broad face when he states a conviction. For about 15 years he has f ore- stalled, almost single handed, the en- trance of his nation into the World Court and the League of Nations, fighting against "entangling foreign alliances." The rugged Idahoan is a past master at debate. Born in Wayne county, Ill., June 29,1 1865, Borah was educated in the county, schools, Southern Illinois academy, Enfield, and at Kansas State University, Lawrence. He was ad- mitted to the practice of law at Lyons, Kas., in 1890, and later moved to Boise, Idaho, his present home. He practiced law in Idaho until elected to the Senate in 1907 just after a legal battle with Clarence S. Darrow, who was defending William D. "Big Bill" Haywood, Harry Orchard and others on charges of killing Governor Steunenberg during a strike of Idaho miners. Borah is serving his fifth term in the Senate, having been elected last in 1930. Prof. Boston's ShopTextbook Is Completed The treatise on "Engineering Shop Practice," by Orlan William Boston, professor of metal processing and di- rector of the department of metal processing in the College of Engi- neering, has been completed with the recent publication of the second vol- ume of the work. The work, as a whole, is intended to prepare the studentt for the planning of production, which correlates the manufacturing processes with the kinds and forms of material used. Production machines are the most important considerations of the re- cently published volume, while -the first volume dealt with basic processes. The book is intended primarily as a text, and is used in the College of En- gineering, but it is also designed for production and designing -engineers, superintendents, foremen, and ma- chine tool operators. Federal Banks Show 4 Billion Deposit Growth Nearly 3 Billion Rise Is Reported In Inter-Bank And U. S._Deposits WASHINGTON, July 3 - () Growth of $4,000,000,000 in federal reserve member bank deposits was mentioned today by tle, federal re- serve board as an outstanding de- velopment of 1934. This increase was exclusive of a rise of about $2,700,000,000 in inter- bank and United States government deposits. Factors listed as important were treasury expenditures, deposits of gold certificates based on newly- acquired gold and the issuance of silver certificates. In its annual report, the board said: "The increase in deposits, other than bankers' deposits, was relatively larger at banks in small towns and in the agricultural sections of the country than at banks in larger cities. "Country banks, however, having no direct 'access to the open market, held a larger proportion of their new deposits as idle balances, while city banks invested a somewhat larger proportion of the increase in their de- posits in government securities and open-market paper." The board said that bank suspen- sions during the year were fewer than in any year since 1920. They num- bered 57 licensed banks with deposits of $36,793,000. Only one was a mem- ber of the reserve system. The board also reported that at the end of 1934 only 160 banks closed during the 1933 bank holiday remained unlicensed. Nine hundred twenty others had been placed in liquidation or receivership during the year. out, be a sign of happiness among h. I.; LEARN TO DANCE Social Dancing taught daily.
