No. 19 ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN, TUESDAY, JULY 20, 1937 PRICE FIVE CENTS Faculty Man's Son Is Killed Under Wheels Of Automobile Jose Albaladejo Hit By Car When Tossed From Bike By Swinging Door Inquest Is Planned For 8 P.M. Friday By CLINTON B. CONGER A freak accident at 5:30 p.m. yes- terday became Ann Arbor's first traf- fic fatality of the year, when Jose Albaladejo, 9-year-old son of Prof. Jose M. Albaladejo of the Spanish department, died on his way to the hospital, of injuries received when he W'as catapulted from his bicycle un- der the wheels of an on coming car in the 1200 block on Packard Street, near the intersection of Wells Street. Thrown To Pavement The boy, riding toward town on Packard, rode headlong into the open door of a parked car and was thrown over the handlebars of his bicycle to the pavement, where both right wheels of a car which was following him passed over his body. According to Jesse S. Tomlinson, 47 years old, of 1310 Dixboro Rd., he had just parked across from the Kroger store on Packard, and had opened the door, putting one leg out, when Albaladejo crashed against the opened door from behind him. The car which followed him, driven by Mrs. William M. Couper, 28 years old, of 1604 Ferndale Ave., passed over the boys prone figure before it could stop. According to witnesses, Albaladejo got up, ran more than 100 feet toward his home a few blocks away, and then collapsed. Dead On Admission A bystander, Horace Robinson, of 1209 Packard St., took the boy to the, hospital in his car, but he was pro- nounced dead on admission. Coroner Edwin C. Ganzhorn an- hounced last night that an inquest would be held at 8 p.m. Friday in the County Court House to determine whether there was any negligence. The fatality was the first since September, 1936, in the city of Ann Arbor. Last year's traffic deaths in town totalled 11, six of .them in the month of July, according to Officer George Camp, record clerk for the Police Department. Both drivers were released after questioning at the Police Station. Sapir To Give Linguistic Talk At Union Today "Are linguists studying speech?" This question will provide the starting-point for the discussion to- day at the regular luncheon confer- ence of the Linguistic Institute. Prof. Edward Sapir of Yale University, vis- iting faculty member of the Institute this summer, will seek to define the relationship between the fields of lin- guistic research and speech study. The discussion should prove of considerable interest, according to Prof. Charles C. Fries, director of the Institute, because of the overlapping of investigations in speech and in lin- guistics. Those attending the conference should note, added Professor Fries, that tlie luncheon will be held in the dining room of the Michigan Union annex instead of in its former loca- tion. Non-members of the Institute are invited to attend both the lun- cheon and the subsequent discussion. Prof. Allinson To Lecture On Spanish Policy Prof. Brent D. Allinson, professor of internationallaw at American University, Washington, D.C., will discuss "American Policy Towards Spain," at a meeting of the Ann Ar- bor Committee for Medical Aid to Spain at 8 p.m. Thursday night in the First Methodist Church.

On Aug. 15 the barbers from the downtown district will clip the hair of the second contingent of boys, who are to arrive at Patterson Lake July 26. Education Clubj Hears Brumm Talk At Uniont Assumption Of Leadershipx Necessary In Teaching, He Contends By HORACE W. GILMORE c Education must concern itself with1 a better way of life for all people andt assume leadership in its directionq rather than merely nourish rich po- tentialities of gifted individua fort a society in which the deve pedE powers can have no opportunity tot function, Prof. John L. Brumm of the journalism department told a meeting of the Men's Education Club last night in the Union. Lists Four Goalst "There are four goals that educa-N tion should pursue," he stated. "Iti must organize around the idea that the selfish individual is a negationN of social life, it must put forth thet conviction and belief that no groupI may arrogate to itself a sense of su-z periority without social defeat, itt must develop the capacities for mak-1 ing superior choices and it must strivei towards a courageous lifting of cen-c sorship from teaching and knowing."1 Professor Brumm declared that the real test of education is not. the sys-c tem, but the teacher. "It is not thec form of literary masterpiece thatc matters most, but what gets ex- pressed through it," he said. Thinking Confused He pointed out that confusion ex- tends pretty generally throughout the range of the average citizen's think- ing. "The average citizen blows hot and cold," Professor Brumm stated. "If he is a conservative, he be- lieves that nothing should be done the first time; if he 'is a radical, he believes that the sooner everything is done for the last time, the better1 off will be everyone concerned." 1 He continued saying that educa- tion can be charged with leaving little done to banish confusion and to establish goals of richer promise for human happiness and well being. "Our confused laymen simply reflect their confusion," Professor Brumm said. Brinkman And Doty To Play At Next Concert The third of the Summer Fac- ulty Concert Series for the public will take place at 8:30 p.m. today at Hill Auditorium. The artists performing at this con- { cert will be Prof. Joseph Brinkman, pianist. and E. William Doty, organ- ist.

Life Saving Class Is Planned Today First meeting of a class for those wishing to pass or review the Senior Smillie Tells Of Tropical Disease TollI Recalls Experiences With Half-Primitive Natives In South America World's Warmest Place, He Claims By JOSEPH GIES Disease and death in tropical jungles formed the background fors Dr. Wilson G. Smillie's Summer Ses-c sion lecture yesterday on "Field Re- search in Brazil."a Dr. Smillie, formerly professor ofb public health medicine at HarvardC University, told his audience a num-a ber of experiences among the half-s primitive natives of the South Amer-I ican interior, which he described as "the hottest place in the world, as far as I know."a "One of the most virulent enemieso of the health of the inhabitants ofa the savage country is the hookworm," he said. "The ravages of this para-e site are so widespread in South Amer-I ica that it may prove a valuable aid in establishing the direct relation be-d tween the inhabitants of that contin-v ent and those of Asia, long a favoritea theory of geologists and anthropolo-t gists." Dr. Smillie told of a murder in which he aided in the solution by ex-e amining the suspect and establishing the length of time he had lived in the vicinity by the number of hookworms' inhabiting his intestine.t In one section of the land throughd which he passed, Dr. Smillie declared, the population had been so decimatedv by malaria that it was said ,'there was a death for every tie on the railroadt track" running through the area.c Even the pigs and the goats were fall- ing prey to the fever. At one point at child of eight was the only living in-r habitant for miles around. At another place where he stoppedt with his travelling companions, a sol-a diers' brawl broke out in a building opposite to that where Dr. -Smillie (continued on Page 4) Leaders Plan Quick Disposal Of Court Bill WASHINGTON, July 19.-(P)-Ad- ministration leaders passed the word tonight that they would make no at- tempt to delay a "show-down" this week on President Roosevelt's court revamping bill. If the opposition makes a move to pigeon-hole the measure tomorrow or later in the week, an immediate vote can be obtained, the Roosevelt leaders said. They expressd confi- dence they have sufficient support to defeat such a move. The White House remained stu- diously silent on Governor Herbert H. Lehman's public criticism of the measure, a criticism which stimulated the opposition. The last hours of the "armistice" occasioned by the death of Majority Leader Robinson of Arkansas wore away with few sign. of any new com- promise. The battle will be on again in the Senate tomorrow, Vien debate on the court bill is automaticly re- sumed, perhaps about 2 p.m. All-Campus Swim Is Led By Morgenroth Bill Morgenroth increased his lead in the All-Campus swimming meet to 260 points yesterday when he placed second to John Smillie, who won the 25-yard breast stroke in the time of 15.1 seconds.

Visits during the past week by Er- nest Liebold of Dearborn, private sec- retary of the auto magnate, during No Exceptions ToArbitration, Finch Asserts Says 20th-Century Effort To Limit Arbitration Is Backward Step Courts Must Get All Dispute Cases By ROBERT I. FITZHENRY The 20th-century effort to limit the; scope of international arbitration by classifying disputes into "justiciable" and "non-justiciable" categories, is a1 backward step in the progressive de- velopment of international law, Mr. George A. Finch, last night told the1 audience of the third publictlecture sponsored by the Summer Session of International Law.1 Cites Permanent Court The difference between "justici- able" and "non-justiciable" disputes! often implies the difference between a situation making for peace or war,, Mr. Finch pointed out. He cited theI example of the Permanent Court of1 International Justice at The Hague which hears and decides "justiciable" disputes as a matter of routine and with scant public attention, whereas1 at Geneva the questions debated by the League of Nations are regarded as "non-justiciable" and, if they can- not be satisfactorily settled, lead in- evitably to hostilities. The word "justiciable," Mr. Finch1 said, signifies a question or matter1 liable to be tried in a court of jus- ice. Its use in international law dates only from the establishment of' the Hague Courts in -1899 and 1907, where attempts were made, in defin- ing the jurisdiction of the new court, to draw a distinction between so- called legal and political cuestions. 1 Unwilling To Arbitrate "The attempt to distinguish be- tween these two classes of disputes,"+ he continued, "was coincident with the modern period of concluding trea- ties stipulating in advance for the arbitration of future international differences. The nations have been unwilling to agree to arbitrate all disputes of whatever character, and have sought to limit arbitration to disputes of a so-called legal character, or to except from arbitration, ques- tions of alleged honor, vital interests or independence." Mr. Finch gave as an example the (Continued on Page 3) State's Prison To Be Visited By Excursion Must Make Reservations For Tomorrow's Trip By 5 P.M._Today Michigan State Prison, at Jackson, representative of modern penal insti- tutions and built at a cost of $8,000,- 000, will be visited tomorrow by the seventh session excursion.Reserva- tions should be made by 5 p.m. today.

Officers will conduct the students through the iron-barred triple gate and around a 5-deck cell block. The textile plant, the second building to be visited, lies across the prison yard beyond the athletic field. Here about 500 inmates are engaged in the man- ufacture of thread for fabric also made in this building-overall ma- terial, sheeting, blankets and shirting.

Williams, of Detroit, led a fleet of 23 yachts across Niagara Storm Fails To Daunt Studen ts' Spirits By JAMES A. BOOZER An electrical storm Friday night, buffeting the huge four-deck steam- er through the waters of Lake Erie, provided as much thrill to the 65 stu- dents and two faculty members on the Niagara Falls excursion as the illuminated Falls or the ride on the Maid of the Mist, excursionists re- ported yesterday after a return to Ann Arbor at 10:15 a.m. Termed by the lake steamer crew the worst storm this year, lightning' and thunder accompanied a wind that sent oversized waves high into the night air as the boat plowed to-1 ward one of the wonders of the con- tinent-Niagara Falls. Rain-In-Face Tribee Dancers donned rain garb and braved the rain-filled wind to wit-t ness the electrical displays and feelt the mist from the lake in their faces. The party, headed by Prof. Fred M.- Bullard, visiting professor in the geology department, from the Univer- sity of Texas, was given a laugh Sat-' urday morning at 9 a.m. when a short, bearded man arose from a rear seat of the chartered bus making the trip from Buffalo to Niagara, and asked: "Where is this bus going? I'm go- ing to Toronto, and this doesn't seem the way-." He had been on the special bus an' hour. Had A Good Time, Anyway Outstanding features of the Ni- agara trip, were an illumination of the Falls Saturday night, a descent1 to the Cave of the Winds, a tour of Goat Island, and an inspection of; Scenic Rock, with a tunnel trip un- der the Canadian Falls, a visit to the Whirlpool Rapids, the abandoned cataract, and Brock's Monument. On the American Side of the Falls the party made a stop at "Devil's Hole." Dancing was held each night of the' excursion. Murphy Names I Truck Parley Representative LANSING, July 19.-(UP)-Governor Murphy today designated Paul H. Todd, chairman of the State Public Utilities Commission, as his repre- sentative in a strike peace conference between truck drivers and truck line owners. The conference is to be held to- norrow in the executive offices. The truck lines operated meanwhile under a 30-day truce arranged Saturday in Muskegon, with the Governor as me- diator. The selection of Todd was an- nounced here by Norman H. Hill, executive secretary to Governor Murphy, after Hill had conferred with the Governor who is on Mack- .nac Island. Stahlman Hits Pr e s s Guilds' 'Closed Shop Says 'World Has Gone Hay Wire,' Calls On Press To Fulfill High Mission DETROIT, July 19.-()-James G. Stahlman, president of the American Newspaper Publishers Association, told the National Editorial Associa- tion today that "the world has gone haywire," and called upon the press of America to "fulfill its high mis- sion." He asserted that a "closed news and editorial shop" is "incompatible with, and inimical to, a free press," and invited the N.E.A., composed of ed- itors and publishers of non-metropol- itan newspapers, to join with 12 other daily newspaper organizations in op- posing such a movement. Clayton T. Rand, of Gulfport, Miss., president of the association, said the matter of formal affiliation with the "newspaper committee" organizec three weeks ago in Chicago to op- pose the closed shop, probably would come to a vote in Wednesday's session. He telegraphed Stahlman during the Chicago meeting, promising the coop eration of the association in main- taining an "open editorial shop.'" Stahlman told the non-metropol- itan publishers that "you talk to a mass of American citizenship no Court Bill Termed Perilous Precedent By N. Y. Governor Graves T Discuss Study Of Far East "Far Eastern Studies in America" will be the subject of a lecture by 1 Mortimer Graves of Harvard Uni- versity under the auspices of the Far Eastern Institute at 5 p.m. today in Natural Science Auditorium. Mr. Graves was one of the firstI educators in the country to become convinced of the advisability of in- 5 troducing study of Far Eastern affairsF and problems in theruniversity sys- F tem. He has just returned from a seven months' stay in Russia. 2 Rankin Speaks About ReformI Of Curriculum r State Schools Must Change As Social DevelopmentsF Appear, He Declares The Michigan school curriculum must continue changing as long as social change contiues, Dr. Paul T. Rankin, supervising director of cur- I riculum and research in the Detroitt public school, told a group yesterdayr in the auditorium of the Universityt High School. Speaking on "Michigan's Program of Curriculum Reform," Dr. Rankinc pointed out the purposes of the steer- ing committee studying a program oft curriculum revision for Michigan. "They have two purposcs," he said, "to define the best possible exper- iences for children in schools, and to develop the best possible guide for teachers."k "Th real curriculum reconstruction comes only when teachers in all schools begin rethinking what should be done in their schools," he de- t clared.- Dr. Rankin continued by pointing out what the steering commission has done, what it is doing and what it t expects to do for the future of Mich-~ igan education.- In closing, he told what local school - systems could do to cooperate with the committee. Rebels Storm Loyalist Lines Around Madrid MADRID, July 19.-(P)-The great- est battle of the civil war raged through its fifth day today as the Insurgents poured thousands of fresh troops against the government s newly won lines west of Madrid. One hundred thousand men were believed to be fighting in each side. No longer was it a tactical struggle for position or a few miles of terri- tory, but the bitter clash of two ar- mies trying to destroy each other. Generalissimo Francisco Franco hurled his greatest strength against the salient in the government lines at Brunete, 12 miles west of the cap- ital. The Insurgent drive evidently was designed to wipe out the govern- ment's recent gains, which, in a two- weeks offensive, had been driven far enough to constitute a grave perial to the Insurgent forces besieging Ma- drid. Sino-Japanese Scene Painted Ominous Black' TOKYO, July 20.-(Tuesday)-(P) -Japanese official and press dis- J patches from China today painted an Lominous picture of the continuing e clash or arms and interests between - the two countries. Events were de- - scribed as leading dangerously in the direction of war. The Japanese army in a "last t warning" to the Central Chinese gov- Lehman Letter To Wagner Takes Stand Opposing His Old 'Chief' Affirms Continued Support To F.D.R. ALBANY, N.Y., July 19.--(P)- Differing with his old "Chief," New York's Democratic Governor Herbert H. Lehman today opposed President Roosevelt's Supreme Court reorgani- zation plan, calling it "A greatly dangerous precedent." Later the Governor's secretary said 'scores" of congratulatory telegrams were being received by the man whom Roosevelt, while himself Governor, alled "My strong right arm." Leh- man was lieutenant governor at the time. Makes Letter Public In making public a letter to Dem- ocratic United States Senator Robert F. Wagner, of New York, asking him "To voice my opposition to the court bill," Lehman praised Roosevelt's "social program." Enactment of the court bill, Leh- man asserted, "would create a great- y dangerous precedent which could be availed or by future less well in- tentioned administrations for the purpose of oppression or for the cur- tailment of the constitutional rights of our citizens." Senator Wagner declined comment on the letter until he has read it, probably tomorrow when he returns to Washington after a week-end at Avon, N.J. There was no immediate White House comment. Lehman's First Backfire The Governor's unexpected action on the eve of a "finish fight" on the bill threw a bombshell into political circles, coming as it did as the first opposition to any Roosevelt admin- istration policy since he succeeded the President as New York Governor in 1933. "Like many others I have fre- quently felt keen disappointment that' important legislative measures have been declared unconstitutional by a slim and unconvincing margin in the Supreme Court," the Governor wrote Wagner. "And yet I believe that the orderly and deliberate processes of govern- ment should not be sacrificed merely to meet an immediate situation. From the broad standpoint of the public interest whatever immediate gain might be achieved through the pro- posed change in the court would, in my opinion, be far more than offset by a loss of confidence in the inde- pendence of the courts and in govern- mental procedure." Budge, Mako Take Germans In Cup Doubles Uncork Rally To Win Last 3 Sets, Virtually Assuring U.S. Victory In Series WIMBLEDON, Eng., July 19.-(P) -The powerful Californians, red- headed Don Budge and blond Gene Mako, won a heroic four-set doubles match from Baron Gottfried Von Cramm and Heinrich Henkel today and gave the United States an all but insurmountable 2-1 lead over Ger- many in the Davis Cup interzone finals. Beaten in the first set and trailing 5-3 in the second, the Americans un- corked as fine a rally as Wimbledon ,ver has seen to win four successive games in the second set, race on to take the third and then come back after the intermission to win five in a row for the fourth set and the match. The scores were 4-6, 7-5, 8-6, 6-4 and at the end there was only seven points difference between the two combinations. All the Americans needed tonight to gain the right to face Great Bri- tain's mediocre team in the challenge
