THE MICHIGAN DAILY SATU THE MICHIGAN DAILY. Official Publication of the Summper Session I s- about the measure. As industry regains its feet, it rises to throw off what it considers "a straight- jacket on the normal operations of business and industry." Dictatorship of the American Federatibn of Labor, decrease in profits, acquiescence to govern- ment supervision and control - to industry these things justify its demand for the repeal of the so-called "emergency measures." Leaders of in- dustry believe that the success of their enterprise means the prosperity of the nation, labor included. Agcording to this philosophy, the security of labor is a by-product of thriving industry. The fact is that industry even in its prosperous years afforded labor no security. The average wage has never equalled the wage essential for a decent living. The Federal government maintains that no bus- iness has a right to exist which cannot pay a living wage. Experience shows that uncontrolled{ industry cannot be expected to meet this requisite. To the entrepreneur profits necessarily take prece- dence over all other considerations. The cheaper the labor cost, the better showing the executive can make before the stockholders. To give labor an opportunity to attain that which is the pur- pose of civilization, a greater measure of security, the government has recognized the principle of collective bargaining. To be sure, these people had gained much. Much that a certain Junior had not gained. (This story is not fabricated.) It was Christmas time and she together with a friend was riding to Chicago. "The tree by the Library," said a student gabbler, "is very pretty, isn't it? The lighted tree?" he added seeing no glimmer of recognition in the listener's eyes. "The Library. Oh! Where is that building?" "Why the one in the middle of the campus, with all the big windows, you know." "Oh. I think I've passed it. I must go in some- time." - And the junior smiled up at the newsboy who was asking her if she would like a College Humor. She looked at her companion. "No thank you. I have mine here." At least this lack of information will not hap- pen to several hundred persons who looked over the Library June 28.

GRAFTON SHARP +r c1ULATION IvANAGER ........CLINTON B. CONGER' An Explanation... HURSDAY a group of summer stu- dents making a tour of the campus visited the Clements Library to look at the exhibits and the rare books housed there. When they asked one of the librarians what the procedure for getting the books out of the library was, they were told that the books were- not available to the general public, nor even to regular undergraduate or grad- uate students of the University. Such a policy is not snobbery, nor a "dog in the manger" attitude on the part of those in charge of the library; it is a praiseworthy attempt at preservation of the most valuable archives of the nation. For in that collection are volumes that could never be replaced if they were ever dam- aged, lost, or destroyed. Regent William L. Clements at one time named two classifications for the bo.oks in the library: "rare" books, and books that were only "scarce." All of them are constantly kept under lock and key, while the "rare" books are kept in a spe- cially constructed burglar and fireproof vault in. the building. And there they remain for the pres- eat only to be loked at, but on occasions to be used by the historians in the writing of textbooks for the schools and the general public. Their ulti- mate purpose is to serve as a complete record of the early history of our nation for future generations. In the mind of a book lover, the greatest possible crime is to destroy a good book, for in such a destruction may perish a race, its history, and its literature; in fact, all of its contributions to civil- ization. If a primary source of information dis- appears, accuracy atnd intimate knowledge of the subject becomes impossible. There remain only a few copies of the geography written by Wald- seemuller from which the two American continents got their names. Can such a book be left on an open shelf for handling by whoever passes by? Time alone does enough for the destruction of the biok, without any unnecessary outside help. Another book in the Clements Library is a copy of .a letter written by Columbus telling of his first voyage of exploration. Of the first edition of this letter there remains but one copy. The copy in the Library is one of about twenty which remain of the second edition. Only a few copies, of each of the other editions are known to book collectors. What dcumrnent can tell more in the history of explora- tion than the firsthand account of the first au- thentic discovery of America? At present the special exhibit on display in the Main Room of the Library is in connection with the Lafayette bicentennial commemoration, and includes several letters written by Lafayette him- self, as well as contemporary newspaper articles. Such documents are invaluable for a study of the Rievolutionary War, or Lafayette, or of the history if America as a whole. The general public has.no more right to handle such documents than a lay- man would have to use for pleasure a serum needed by a doctor to save a life. It is for these reasons that the Clements Library is entirely justified in trying to preserve valuable archives at the expense of denying their use to the reading public. The policy of those in charge amounts to conservation of previous resources without any loss of knowledge to the world. Labor's Place InThe Sun... LABOR'S STATUS in the United States has been conditioned by two fundamental philosophies. The first philosophy is the reactionary one given articulation in Judge Gary's decision which declared that labor is a Industry, unable or unwilling to adjust itself to meet labor on equal ground, rushed development of the company union, a means whereby labor pre- sents its grievances to the employer who sits on both sides of the table. Many employers have re- fused- to recognize "outside unions," and this re- fusal is the cause of about seventy-five per cent of the four hundred labor disputes that come be- fore the National Labor Board each month. In the meantime labor is becoming conscious of its power to get what it wants by collective action. Never again can it become a commodity, at least as long as the government lends its support. A swing to the right on the labor question is feared by all, because in that direction lies Fascism, Fascism being understood as forced capitalism with the. complete subjugation of labor by state-supported industrial overlords. Capitalism, by its inherent nature, can never solve the problem of making security possible to all workers, but it can ease the situation by in- creasing wages and .decreasing profits and divi- dends.

He probably differs from Papa Juan, the "A Hundred Years Old" character who is 20 years his senior, in many ways, but quite similarly endears himself to the audience, The role will undoubtedly prove an acid test of Francis Compton's acting ability, and a fitting vehicle for his initial appearance with the Players. THE PLAY will be almost an All-English pro- duction. It's co-authors, Horace Hodges and T. Wigney Percival, are from the English stage, Cyril Maude, who immortalized the show with his mag- nificent acting, comes from the Isles, and Mr. Compton hails from a family prominent in Eng- ish dramatic and literary circles. THE REPERTORY PLAYERS Got the earliest start of any similar group of college players in the country. Their season started June 22, while most summer seasons don't commence until early July. * * * * JAMES V. DOLL, who has appeared in both shows to date, is also cast in "Grumpy."

Nights 25c URE PROGRAM ', j' To the Editor: To one who, as a resident of Ann Arbor, has fol- lowed Michigan as well as Ann Arbor golf for sev- eral years, the showing of Dana Seeley in prac- tically winning the National Intercollegiate team title for Michigan was not entirely a surprise, al- though it seems to have been one to many others, including the coaches. I say that advisedly, in view of the fact that/his abilities had been so under- estimated during the dual-meet season that he was not given even a chance to win his letter. While it is difficult to criticize a coach, recogniz- ing the difficulties under which he must choose those who are to compete on his teams, it seems to me that Seeley's own record during the past few seasons of local play might have been accepted as proof of his capabilities and that he be given a chance. Instead, in those meets in which the ranking players were left out and which were con- sidered in the awarding of letters, players of defi- nitely inferior calibre were used. Then, in those "unimportont" matches following the Conference meet, Seeley was allowed to play and once again demonstrated that he was of Varsity calibre. However, when the Varsity awards were announced, Seeley was not included because he "had not competed in an important dual- meet," and to crown that, was not even given a Reserve award, through an oversight, I hope, al- though we would not have blamed him had he refused to accept it had it been given him. Not to be kept down, however, Seeley came back in the play which preceded the selection of the. team to make the trip to the National meet and forced his selection over two who had been awarded letters. His play in the National meet has vindi- cated that choice, and I feel that it is the least that can be done to give him a Varsity award, as I understand has been done. -Ann Arborite.

THE MAJESTIC TODAY "THE MERRY FRINKS" We've been bewildered by the pre-views and ad- vance notices of the Majestic show, "The Merry Frinks," which starts today. We don't know just what to expect. Let us quote some of the advance promises, which of course, don't mean a thing. Then you'll see why we're bewildered. "They float through the air with the greatest of ease, the hilarious Frinks, on the flying trapeze! "They're all nuts - out on a limb of their family tree! Meet America's first family of filberts . . . "A little number entitled - Sweeping the Cob- webs off Your Sense of Humor -it goes like this ... "They're a breath of spring to their mother . . . but they're just plain nuts to you . . . "You'll call it a mad-house - but the Frinks call it home! Meet the world's daffiest family - the roaringest, rampagingest, round-up of un- adulterated oafs, loons, zanies and capering crack- pots ever assembled under one roof! "They're mad, but not at you . . . "A cavalcade of crack-pots in a hurricane of hokum . . ." Have you had enough? Now YOU tell US what it's all about. If nothing else, the publicity writers (public relations counselors to you) had a grand time thinking up things to say about it. They prob- ably never saw the show themselves, but in these days of high-pressure advertising, knowledge of the product is a handicap. So all we can tell you about this movie is who's in it. The cast doesn't sound bad. Tomorrow we'll tell you if they are or Dot. Aline MacMahon is Mom Frink, Guy Kibbee is Uncle Newt, Hugh Herbert is Joe, Allen Jenkins is Emmett, Helen Lowell is Grandma, Joan Wheeler is Lucile, Frankie Darro is Norman. That completes the Frink family. Those not lucky enough to be one of the chosen many are Ivan Lebedeff, Harold Huber, Louise Beavers, Maidel Turner, Harry Beresford, Harry Bradley, James Bush, Charles Coleman, and Joan Sheldon. It's a Warner Bros. production with Alfred E. Green directing. THIS, LADIES AND GENTLEMEN So began a series of conducted tours of the main Library Thursday afternoon to hundreds (yes) of eager, ear-stretching visitors. Heat did not deter them. Knowledge was to be gained. In they trouped, in groups of about thirty. Some there were pushing close to the student librarians, anxiously imbibing words. "These are the Carrells in which the graduate students study." "How sweet to mix singing and study." "No madam." The lady so addressed smiled too angelically. The tall conductor passed on. "He thinks," she whispered to a friend, "that I'm a madam. Isn't that dear!" The dear and his tribe passed into the large reference room eventually. Here he stopped, sur- veyed them a moment, and began his tale of knowledge and where it might be found. "This room might be called the key room." And on he went, but one of his listeners had a problem. It showed in his face. Finally he could hold it no longer:
