Riley Hamilton Cochran COLUMN EDITOR Howard Weeks TUESDAY, JULY 27, 1920{ RED, BUT STILL AN INFLUENCE vith a feeling of regret that the Michigan and students must take the resignation of B. Hinsdale, dean of the Homceopathic school. For 25 years he has been its head, ng that period he has always worked for ncement. While it is the smallest of the ty's eight colleges, it has been an excellent. it has turned out able men, to serve in this public welfare. Through a long period nsdale has been at the head of the Hommo- :hool, and his resignation will be a great VMichigan. tirement seems to be a part of a new move- the University. He, with other of the older the faculty, are leaving their work to the, men. Having served Michigan.well in. the rs, they are entrusting to others the prob- developing the University to evei greater These men, of whom Dr. Hinsdale is one nost prominent, have achieved success and ne Michigan much good, but with a new development, they are letting younger men ir places. espite the retirement of Dr. Hinsdale and the University will not be without their .

Dr. Hinsdale has done great >r Michigan, for which the students and the are all grateful, but his influence and great- loss of which will hurt Michigan to a cer- nt, will do even more in the years to come. have a passport. For some reason two of Michi-, gan's men were not notified of this until the day of the finals, and it was thus necessary for them to spend the entire morning before the meet walking the streets of Boston to arrange for passports. That one of the men was unable to use his passport, for which he spent ninedollars, was apparently of little consequence to the committee. That there are other similar incidents, many of them perhaps more aggravating than the ones cited, can hardly be ques- tioned. Of course, some people might not consider these instances of enough moment for criticism; they might say that these were the only ones, but to us they seem sufficient, and we also know of a few other similar cases which we can cite if called upon. Although our knowledge is necessarily limited mostly to Michigan affairs, we know of several sim- ilar ones, and with so many unfortunate things hap- pening to the Michigan entrants, it seems impossible that all the other tryouts could have escaped. How- ever, the 1920 trials for the American Olympic team are over, and nothing more can be 'done them. We do cite these, though, in the hope that the uni- versities, who supply most of the men, and the grad- uates of universities, who put up a great deal of the money, will see to it that the mistakes of 1920 are avoided in 1924, and now is the time to com- nence. These reports of a huge wheat crop in the Middle West get us 'll worked up about a probable decrease in prices, only to have the pleasure spoiled by the next paragraph saying that it will take two years to move the crop. Some of the people who have been visiting the summer school between trips to Detroit will un- doubtedly be surprised and aggrieved to know that one-half of the session is over. Plans Under Way For Next Opera E. Mortimer Shuter; director of the last two Michigan Union operas, and who has been engaged for the 1921 production, is spending the summer at. Altoona, Pa. Several inquiries have been received by Union officials from Mr. Shuter, asking for information conceri(ing the progress of next year's book. Although the book has not been defi- nitely selected yet, several lyrics and the librettos from the most promising one have been sent in. Great interest is being manifested by Mr. Shuter in next year's opera, which he hopes to produce on an even larger scale than the previous ones. Edwin H. Kreuger, '21E, composer of the music for r"George Did It," last year's opera, is at present at work on several original songs, which will probably have a prominent place in next season's opera. Russel Barnes, '26, will probably write a large part of the lyrics for the coming production. At present he is working on the staff of the Detroit News.

The most widely read and highly appreciated ac- ceptance of the presidential nomination was un- doubtedly General Grant's; it was about 200 words long.

We still what we wrote at the time, and 'to support >inion further, we submit more instances, of the committee may or may not be proud. t on the list is its handling of the sectional s. The opinion was allowed to gain credence mly the first three men to qualify in their dis- :ould compete in the finals at Harvard. Be- this, the Athletic association paid the ex- of seven men to Chicago, and had them com- here, only to discover that the, records made did not qualify or disqualify for the finals ibridge. Of course, if a man performed well :ago, it might have been taken into considera- iut that did not make up any of the money he Athletic association expended in sending men there needlessly. next, perhaps, is not quite so important; but at have kept the Michigan entries from com- . Tuesday afternoon, a wire was received in- ig the Michigan men that tryouts in their would be conducted Friday. This made it ary for them to leave Wednesday afternoon er to get there in time, and only through the st-luck and hard work was it possible to secure ations for these three men. Apparently the ic committee was too busy to let the entrants of the tryouts except at the last minute. he matter of handling the passports,. capable ement was again displayed. It might seem e people that the committee could have made 'ements with the state department for quick y of only the necessary passports after the icement of the team's personnel. But it was thin the powers of the committee to accom- his, so that they required each contestant to Editorial Comment THE 4 PER CENT DISTURBANCE According to statistics compiled by the federal department of labor, 3,374 strikes, involving more than 4,000,000 workers, occurred in the United States in 1919. Assuming that the 4,000,000 include only the strikers and their dependents, and such other workers as were made idle by reason of their work being intimately connected with that of the strikers, the tale is not half told. Some of these strikes, such as the coal miners' strike, the dock workers' strike, the railroad strike, and the steel strike, affected more or less directly' every inhabitant of the country ; and thus all of the people, numbering something more than 100,000,-' 000, were put to inconvenience, expense, and some- times exposed to peril because 4 per cent of the total was not satisfied with its wages or working condi- tions and knew ,no other way-or, at any rate, re- fused to recognize any other way-to better the sit- uation than to strike. This is a condition that is a credit neither to our business management nor our public administration. It is in effect a sacrifice of the interests of the many to the interests of the few, when there should be a sacrificeof neither. There are, of course, always the unreasonable malcontents who will not be satis- fied with any arrangement, but for the most part Americans prefer peace and a steady job to the arti- ficially created industrial unrest of which they are so frequently made the victims. It is useless to hope that all men will be able to agree all the time, but it is wholly possible for them to adjudicate their differences without resort to the medieval custom of using force-and the strike or the lockout is force. Perhaps when the campaign is over, and the statesmen and politicians can look forward to a period of two years without urgent political maneuverings, they can find time to consider the question of industrial stability with more sincerity and earnestness than they have given to it hereto- fore. Probably nothing would do more to bring about a return of national contentment and assure. stable prosperity, and to show that the country is really as civilized as it pretends to be.-Indianapolis News.
