Disputes Slow
Trial Of Four
UAW Officers
Martin Accuses Opponents
Of Filibuster Attempt;
Sugar ScoresObjections
DETROIT, July 28.-(P)--The trial
by which President Homer Martin
seeks to remove four suspended vice-
presidents from the CIO United Au-
tomobile Workers slowed nearly to a
standstill today because of frequent
disputes.
Martin, who has charged the four
with a Communist conspiracy to dis-
rupt the Union, contended his oppon-
ents were "trying to filibuster."
Maurice Sugar, attorney for the
suspended group, replied that Martin
and his aides were using specious ob-
jections to suppress discusion that
might embarrass them.
A blond woman, modishly dressed,
whose identity was withheld was
called to the room where the Execu-
tive Board is conducting the trial to-
day, to relate what Martain said was
a "deal with Dick Frankensteen" to
turn control of Labor's Non-Partisan
League in Wayne County. over to the
Communist Party.
Martin declined to name the wom-
an, bitt said she was a former Com-
munist Party member who heard de-
tails of the "deal" at a party meeting.
In four days the board has made
little, progress, in its session behind
closed doors, toward a decision on
the charges against Richard T.
Frankensteen, Wyndham Mortimer,
Ed Hall and Walter N. Wells.
Franksteen is county chairman of
Laboir's Non-Partisan League; Martin
is State chairman.
Sugar, assailing procedure at the
trial, said today that "three of the
so-called judges, Martin, Delmond
Garst and Lester Washburn, all made
statements as to what happened at a
meeting with John L. Lewis in April,
1937, thus providing the curious spec-
tacle of judges giving their opinions
as witnesses without being sworn."
Mortimer charged in a radio broad-,
cast. tonight that a "ruinous and
dangerous" group insurance plan, for
which hesaid Martin sought Execu-,
tive Board approval, was "the im-
mediate cause of all this trouble." The
officers Martin later suspended "de-
manded a complete airing" of the in-
surance proposition, Mortimer said,
and the deal has not yet been closed.
He charged that the proposal "would
have vastly damaged our union and
exploited our membership." "
Air Pact Made
ByLU.S.-Canada
Contract Is 10th Reached
With Other Nations
WASHINGTON, July 28.- (P) -
Three aeronautical agreements be-
tween the United States and Canada
were reached today through an ex-
change of notes between Secretary of
State Hull and Canadian Minister Sir
Herbert Marler.
They involve these subjects:.
1. Air navigation.
2. Reciprocal issuance of airman
certificates.
3. Reciprocal recognition of certifi-
cates of airworthiness concerning air-
planes for export.
They comprise the tenth bilateral
air accord reached between the Unit-
ed States and other nations. The
others are with Belgium, Denmark,
Germany, Great Britain, Ireland,
Italy, Norway, Sweden and Union of
South Africa.
Superseding an accord reached in
1929 between the United States and
Canada, the air navigation agreement
provides for the recognition by each
government, for flights over its ter-
ritory, of certificates or licenses is-
sued by the other government for its
airciraft and airmen; equality'of
treatment with regard to aircraft fa-
cilities; the right to prohibit flights
over certain zones, and compliance
with local regulations, including those
relating to customs and immigration.

Dr. Guthe Says Graduate Study
Gives New Outlook On Learning
Curiosity And Judgement curiosity and sound judgement and

Graduate study is more than "just
going to school after graduation,"
according to Dr. Carl E. Guthe, direc-
tor of University Museums, and a
members of the \Executive Board of
the Horace H. Rackham School of
Graduate Studies.
In ar article in the current issue
of the "Michigan Alumnus" Dr.
Guthe defined graduate study as an
"introduction into a new relationship
between the student, and learning. It
furnishes the individual with the op-
portunity to indulge his curiosity con-
cerning the world about him, under
the guidance of teachers, and aided
by the published experiences of his
predecessors."
"Formal instruction and intensive
the faculty, discussions and conversa-
tions with fellow students, and brows-
ing in the library or at lectures."
In Dr. Guthe's opinion, the trustees
of the Horace H. Rackham and Mary
A. Rackham Fund undoubtedly had
in mind these intellectual and extra-
curricular functions of the Graduate
School when they made the original
gift of five million dollars to the
University in the fall of 1935, believ-
ing, that in so doing they were con-
serving and continuing Mr. Rack-
ham's own deepest interests. During
the past two academic years the ex-
istence of the endowment fund has
made possible fellowships for a num-
ber of students, and a larger number
of grants in aid of research.
The building of the Graduate
School, occupying the two blocks be-
tween Washington and Huron streets,
was characterized by Dr. Guthe as
being the "tangible expression of the
purposes and ideals of the donor. It
is a visible symbol and attrative
home of the graduate functions of the
University. It is a constant remnindler
that research and the t raiining of 11ew
investigators are indespensible serv-
ices to society."
An imposing structure of Indiana
limestone with a granite base course,
window and door frames of bronze,
and a copper roof, the present plan
was selected from six different
sketches prepared by the architects,
Smith, Hinchman and Grylis. Thie
building was completed late in the
spring of 1938.

Brown Knocks
Toy, Fitzgerald
Misrepresentation Charge
Hurled By Senator
DETROIT, July 28.-(A)-U. S. Sen-
ator Prentiss M. Brown, Democrat, of
St. Ignace, injected himself into the
state political fight today with de-
nunciations of Harry S. Toy and
Frank D. Fitzgerald, Republican can-
didates for governor, and praise for
Governor Murphy..
Speaking at the American Legion
Club here to an audience of Demo-
cratic leaders and state and federal
officials, the Senator charged that
Toy was guilty of a statment "packed
with misrepresentation and deceit" in
an address at Adrian in which Toy
was reported as saying that Michi-
gan people pay $228,000,000 in Fed-
eral taxes and get back less than half
of the amount.
"No state can be credited with the
entire amount of taxes it pays to the
Federal Government," Senator Brown
asserted. "If it could be true, North
Carolina would be the second largest
taxpaying state, because all the cig-
aret taxes are reported from there.
Does Toy think North Carolina people
pay the taxes on all cigaretes smoked?
"I charge the Republican candidate
for Governor with being absolutely
unfair when he implies we are not
getting our share of Federal money
and are getting back only half."
He urged former Governor Fitz-
gerald to "look over theRepublican
record" for an answer to Fitzgerald's
assertion at St. Ignace recently that
the Republican Party stood for non-
partisan administration of the State
Conservation Commission.
Concluding, he declared that Gov-
ernor Murphy is giving the State of
Michigan the type of government
"which forward-looking newspapers
have been demanding for years."
Fitzgerald Hits
State Welfare
Declares Measures Should
Be Voted Out
SAULT STE. MARIE, Mich, July 28
- Former Governor Frank D. Fitz-
gerald told the State Association of
Supervisors and County Poor Super-
intendents here tonight that welfae
reorganization measures enacted by
the last legislature should be "voted
out of existence" at the September
primaries.
"Then," he said "in the next legis-
lature we can start over again toward
the original goal . . . of welfare ad-
ministered by those in the best posi-
tion to know the facts."
Fitzgerald, who seeks the Republi-
can nomination for governor at the
November primary, declared that
"New Dealism is becoming more and
more a symbol of centralization; if it
is not curbed, local government will
become entirely impotent."
"State government has no busi-
ness attempting to absorb essential
local government," he said. "The gov-
erning bodies of the counties, town-
ships and municipalities are the eyes
and the voicedof the people, they must
be preserved."
