selves.

ALL BODY AND NO FEET
ist now the situation in America
ely resembles that of a baby with
overgrown body and no feet to
k on. We have millions of citizens
lable for our army, plants with
mous resources for turning out
munitions of war, and land to raise
t supplies of foodstuffs. These
gs make up the body of the in-
American. fighting machine. We
ygreat railroads and inland wat-
ays for shipping supplies. If the
were being carried on in the
ed States we could do a great
of fighting with the men and
itions already available. But it
verseas, and as yet we lack effici-
feet to carry, over two thousand
js of water, our heavy fighting
hine. Our ships are the feet of the
y and navy; without an ample
ly of these we can do nothing.
rhaps one of the reasons that
nany has been able to prosecute
war so long is because she has a
network of railroads, available
military as well as industrial pur-
s. This enables Fritz, the com-
soldier, to be transported at a
ite's notice from Russia, where

sportedi across the water means
only accomnodations for him-
but also for food, munitions,
ing, and the other accessories

hing the front. This requires not
the one ship to transport him,
approximately two more to carry

his supplies. At present we are able
to ship and equip about 95,000 men
per month. We are training many
times that number. The concentration
on shipping is mandatory.
SOME THOUGHTS ON STATE
STREET
Strolling up State street, one recent
March afternoon, The Alumnus saw
the street, so famous to generations
of Michigan's students, in a new light.
Actually the illumination was the
slanting sun of an early spring after-
noon, but it emphasized the shadows
and threw the large bulk of the new
Union with its tower, which has
come to dominate that part of Ann
Arbor, into strong relief.
Already one could visualize what
State street is to become within a few
years-a spacious avenue flanked by
impressive buildings, lacking perhaps
any large pretense at architectural
unity, but attaining something finer
through the broad spaces and the con-
cealments and revelations of the elm
trees which line it for so many
blocks. One remembers a bit of stu-
dent irreverance, buried in forgotten
files of a prehistoric Wrinkle
"Sing a song of State street-
Shucks t'aint worth a song!"
and contrasts it with what is prom-
ised in the near future, when practi-
cally the three or four remaining old
frame houses and West hall are gone
and the new Congregational church,
the Betsy Barbour dormitory, -the
Catholic Student Guild house, and
the new fraternity houses which are
promised soon, will make State street
one of those gracious collegiate ave-
nues to be long remembered-by visit-
ors, and fondly recalled by .graduates.

UPHOLDS SALES WORK
STUDENT REPLIES TO ARTICLE
CLAIMING FEW STUDENTS
MAKE SUCCESSES ,
Editor, The Michigan Daily:
Judging from my own experiences
during spring vacation, the general
impression conveyed by Mr. Kemble's
communication which appeared in The
Daily just before vacation is a great
1
injustice to the sales comnpanies
which are recruiting students for sum-
mer work.
I made 'a through investigation of
the situation before deciding to take
up selling books, and did not detect
one instance of "tricky methods" al-
luded to in Mr. Kemble's letter
Questions Crooked Methods
It is absolutely beyond my vision
to see how any company could ex-
pect to engage in a profitable business
for any length of time by using the
''crooked methods" that Mr. Kemble
names.
The community I canvassed is not
far from Ann Arbor. Let me state
right here that I was not only ex-
tremely successful from the financial
standpoint, but also that I gained a
valuable experience in the short time
that the University could not teach
me.
I learned also that the attitude of
the general public was one of respect
for the student who has "red blood"
enough in his veins to take up such
work, and I did not meet one case
where I was not treated in a hospita-
ble manner.
Financial Success Possible
I do not believe that only a " chosen
few" are inv'ested- with powers of
salesmanship, but I am convinced that
any student who gives his proposition
a fair trial and when I say "fair trial"
I do not mean a "hasty conclusion"
can with a knowledge of the good
qualities of the article he is selling,
make as good a financial success as
in any other line of work.
It is, of course, necessary that the
students have supreme confilence in
tpe article he is selling and in the
company in that stands behind him.
Such articles as Mr. Kemble's raises
doubt in the mind of the student
which is dangerous to his success.
Invites Investigation
Out of justice to the companies who
are doing a legitimate business as well
as to the students, I believe that ac-
tion should be taken at once by the
employment bureaus of the "Y" and
Union to investigate the contracts and
propositions of these companies.

ENGLISH DISCUSS PLANS id

FOR JEWISH UNIVERSITY

Plans for a large Jewish university
in Jerusalem situated on the Mount
of 014ves have been under discussion
for some time in England. The col-
lection of the necessary funds is now
being started by the men in charge.
When situated in its proposed site,
the university will occupy the highest
point in the hills around Jerusalem,
and will look down on one side upon
the Holy City and the area where the
temple once stood. On the other lies
the wilderness of Judea, which de-
cends to the valley of 'the Jordan
river and the Dead Sea.

The world owes us something on
the day that we are told, as we
squirm relievedly out of the torture-
chair, "Well, come back next week
and we'll see whether that tooth is
ulcerated, or has an abcess on the bot-
tom, or is just growing in wrong."
The Power That Is-Get some inter-
national ideas in the colyum, why
don't you?
We (having one)-Let Schwab do it.
Tl, P. T. I.-Well, ask him to when
he comes in; I'm busy now.
We suppose that our next photo-
play sensation will be "Karl, the Vil-
lian of Vienna," or perhaps, "Czernin,
the Czurse of the Czechs," or yet,
"Mohammed, the Murderer of Mesopot-
amia.

Did the boys get lazy after the fifth

Western Reserve? The sport ed. says
this is a good joke. We leave it to

An R. O. T.. Cuss coldly sat, his back
against the wall,
His uniform was hardly fitted for a
military ball;
(Or his figure either)
His coat hung loose in wrinkles upon
his manly back,j
Now was th.is man a slacker, just be-
cause his clothes were slack?
(Awgwan, he wasn't neither.)
Oh, Say!
An Ohio farmer has painted every
fence-post on his farm either red,
white, or blue. The cows and chick-
ens won't have to ask each others
whether they can see by the dawn's
early light.
Thinking it over-suffering "untold
agony" doesn't seem to be being done
among our friends any more. Gone
to the attic along with "unfeigned sat-
isfaction" and "unrequited affection."
