BROADWAY SUCCESS:
'Second Threshold' Will Open Today

The recent Bros v success
and current speecl_ _partment
play, "Second Threshold" by Phil-
lip Barry will open at 8 p.m. today
in Lydia Mendelssohn Theatre.
"Second Threshold," Barry's
last play, was completed at the
time of his death in 1949 except
for the final draft. His close
friend, playwright Robert E.
Sherwood, edited and revised the
script prior to its premiere per-
formance on Broadway last year.
IN 30 YEARS of writing Barry
turned out 28 plays, most of them
in comedy of manners style.
"Second Threshold," how-
ever, emerges with a more se-
rious undertone.
Nafe E. Katter, Grad., will play
the role of Josiah Bolton, who
achieves success as a public ser-
vant, but finds his life is empty
and meaningless. His daughter Mi-
randa will be portrayed by Ruth
Livingston who saves Bolton from
destroying himself by supporting
him with her love and loyalty.
TOBY WELLS, a young doctor
and admirer of Miranda will be
played by William L. Hadley,
Grad.; Joel Sebastian, '54, will
take the role of Jock Bolton, the
son; Patty Jewett will play
Thankful Mather, the giddy young
debutant and Dwight Thomas,
Grad., will play Malloy, the butler.,
' The show is under the direction
of Prof. Hugh Z. Norton, with set
design by Jack E. Bender and cos-
tumes by Lucy Barton.
Tickets for all performances are
on sale at the Mendelssohn box
office from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. daily

.Dice Cites
Task Facing
Oil Industry
Balancing local political inde-
pendence with international eco-
nomic needs is the greatest single
problem facing the world-wide oil
industry, according to James T.
Duce, vice-president of the Ara-
bian-American oil industry.
Speaking under the auspices of
the University's summer program
of Near Eastern Studies, Duce said
yesterday that the continued flow
of oil into the world market "is
essential to the welfare of na-
tions and to their prosperity and
their independence."
HE SAID THAT the develop-
ment and distribution of oil
"should not be tied too closely to
local conditions and ambitions."
"However," Duce continued, "if
there is any one factor which may
cause the breakdown of the com-
plicated civilization which we
now have, it will be our failure
to harmonize these two sometimes
opposing forces-the desire for lo-
cal independence and the need for
world interdependence. The two
forces are not really opposing-in
my view they are complementary.
Our skill in harmonizing them
may indeed be the key to the fu-
ture..
Using a variety of colored charts
and maps to explain different as-
pects of the petroleum industry,
Duce pointed out that the Middle
East appears to be "by far the
richest oilarea in the world with
variously estimated proven re-
serves running from 55 billion to
75 billion barrels."

The state and country primaries
coming up August 5 will give
Washtenaw County voters a
chance to pick party candidates
for the November elections and de-
cide on three Ann Arbor charter
amendments.
The primary election presents
few contests: eight in the Repub-
lican party and only two on the
Democratic ballot. Only one of
the charter amendments - the
city's proposed amusement tax-
is controversial.
* * *
IN ITS REVISED form, the pro-
posal gives the city power "to levy
and collect a specific excise tax
of not more than 10 per cent
upon the established price of ad-
missions, which amount to 26
cents or more, that are charged for
motion pictures" and other amuse-
ments.
Of the two less controversial
amendments, the first proposes
Nef Describes
Advancement
Of Two Kinds
Safeguards against total war
grow up in connection with quali-
tative progress and not the eco-
nomic progress tfiat engages our
attention today, according to Prof.
John U. Nef, of the University of
Chicago.
Nef, an economic historian.
spoke on "War and Human Prog-
ress" Monday.as part of the sum-
mer session program "Modern
Views of Man and Society."
HE EXPLAINED that qualita-
tive progress is development of
the arts, of humanism and of
faith, while quantitative progress
is measured by national income or
population grgwth.
"During the past 150 years
there has been a disposition to
associate the term progress with
a special kind of economic prog-
ress- the kind of progress that
can be measured quantitative-
ly," he said.
"No careful economist has ever
argued that such estimates offer
anything approaching a perfect
guide to progress."
The historian said that both
kinds of progress were essential
to the rise and triumph of our in-
dustrial civilization, which he
called "unique in history."

that the salary of the munici-
pal judge be increased from
$6,000 to $8,000. The second, if
passed, would allow the City
Clerk 48 hours, instead of 24,
to present minutes of City Coun-
cil proceedings to the Mayor.
In the state and county primary,
only one University representative
-Prof. John P. Dawson of the
law school-is on the ballot. He
is running unopposed on the Dein-

Four men, William F. Ager, ,Jr.,
Edmond F. DeVine, John W. Rae,
and Leonard H. Young are run-
ning for the position. All are grad-
uates of the University Law School.
On the Democratic ticket,
Louis C. Andrews, Jr., and Aaron
Priebe are vying for the Prose-
cuting Attorney post.

The national Senatorial race
is complicated by the mid-term
appointment of Sen. Blair Moo-
dy to fill the vacancy left by the
death of Arthur Vandenberg.
Moody is running on the Demo-
cratic ticket and John B. Martin,
Jr., and Rep. Charles E. Potter
are contesting the Republican po-
sition for the "short term" re-
maining. This term will last from
November 5 to January 3, 1953.
For the full term Senatorial
post beginning January 3, 1953,
Moody and Louis C. Schwinger are
running on the Democratic side.
GOP candidates are Martin, Pot-
ter. Eugene C. Keyes and Clifford
Prevost.
Voters will also elect Republi-
can candidates for Governor and
Lieutenant Governor. The Demo-
cratic candidates for these offices
are running unopposed.

Lapeer Fight
Still Rages
LAPEER, Mich., R1P)-Clayton C.
Gilliland, a key figure in the La-
peer County farm eviction battles,
was released yesterday from the
Genessee County Jail on $5,000
bond, paid by Walter Ford, Mar-
lette implement dealer.
Gilliland had been in jail since
Sunday when he was arrested at
"Fort Ziegenhardt," the sand-
bagged farm home of the Ziegen-
hardt brothers, Chris and Paul,
who have successfully defied at-
tempts of Sheriff's officers to evict
them.
He has acted as adviser to
the Lapeer County farmers in
their 17-year-old battle against
paying assessments levied by the
receiver for a bankrupt mutual
insurance group.
In another development yester-
day, Mrs. Grace White, another
key figure, who bought the Mrs.
Elizabeth Stevens farm and the
home of the Ziegenhardt broth-
ers at auction, returned from a
business trip to Chicago to- find
her 'home had been ransacked in
her absence.
