YINAINCIAL WORLD SIUGGESTS CON-
SCRIPTING FUNDS ON IN-
COME BASIS
The question has recently been con-
sidered says the Bache review, as to
whether the raising of government
funds on loans cannot be made con-
scriptive, as is the raising of men by
draft. Thus far no government has
ever tried this.
Men are drafted for the army, con-
tinues the review, and must serve. In-
dustrial machines are commandered,
and must contribute their output to the
government for munitions and other
products. The government fixes the
prices, and producers must furnish the
goods under more or less coercion at
the figures set. But when it comes to
raising money to carry on the war-
one of the most essential parts of the
whole operation-the achievement is
left, to the patriotism, generosity, or
good judgment of the people.
The Financial World, which first or-
iginated the proposition, suggests that
a law be passed, calling upon individ-
uals to furnish the amount of any
loan asked by the secretar:y of thO
treasury, their quota being determ-ined
by the income tax reports. Provision
should be made for exemption, just as
they are made in the present draft.
Thu. a method of enlisting funds
would be inaugurated, the same as
enlisting man power, and all strenu-
ous effort and uncertainty of volun-
tary subscriptions would be eliminat-
ed.
There is only one objection to the
plan, and that is that the small in-
vestors, who constituted the greater
number of bond buyers in the last
Loan, would not be included in this
conscription. Voluntary subscriptir'fs
would still be received, the review
points out, but it is doubtful if the
small investor would invest if he did
not have to. The remedy suggested is
to have compulsory thrift stamp buy-
ing, based on salaries received.

Jean Southern makes her first ap-
pearance at the Arcade in "Peg 0' the
Sea," a story of the New England
Coast. She falls in love with a young
inventor who is engaged to another
woman and Peg, realizing that the
other woman does not care for him as
she does, makes him fall in love with
herself.
MME. MATZENAUER
TO SING CARMEN
Mme. Margarete Matzenauer, the
Austrian contralto, will sing the title
role of "Carmen," the greatest oif
French operatic compositions in the
Saturday concert of the May Festival
which will be given from May 15 to
18 in Hill auditorium.
Mme. Matzenauer has a large and
varied repertoire and is known as the
emergency singer by her impresarios.
She has a voice of unusual range be-
ing able to take both contralto and
soprano parts.
During her career she has won
many decorations and medals
from European sovereigns. She also
received many signal honors in the
way of court calls. me. Matzenauer
made her operatic debut when she
was twenty years old at Strasburg
as "Puck."
Besides her role of "Carmen" she
will sing a group of songs in the Wed-
nesday concert.
"Before the Crucifix" .....
..... Frank La Forge
"Sorrow in Springtime" (in Rus-
rian)............. Rachmaninoff
"Dear Lad o'Mine" ... Branscombe
"Carnaval"..............Fourdrain
Frank La Forge, an American com-
poser, will accompany her.
Of Margarete Matzenauer's greatness
as an operatic artist the world-wide
reputation she enjoys is abundant
proof. She has already so demonstra-
ted her dramatic power and consum-
mate vocal resources in "Samson and
Delilah" and "Aida" in Ann Arbor that
of her work in " Carmen" it is only
necessary to state that she is the
greatest "Carmen" on the stage to-
day, for her finished acting is not a
shield for defective singing, as is
sometimes the case.
ELIZABETH GUTMAN
TO GIVE CONCERT
Miss Elizabeth Gutman, of Baltimore,
"Singer of Quaint Folk Songs," will ap-
pear in a concert to be given at 8 next
Sunday night, in Sarah Caswell Angell
hall, under the auspices of the Uni-
versity Menorah society.
Miss Gutman is touring the wester~n
colleges in the interest of Menorah,
giving concerts in Russian -andYid-
dish folk songs. She is a descendant
of fourteen generations of rabbis and
chassans, or cantors, in Hebrew syn-
agogues. Having made a special study
of the Russian language, she is espec-
ially fitted to the task she has under-
taken.
Attractive posters advertising the
event were distributed on the campus
yesterday. Admission will be free.

The signal course which commenced
at the beginning of this semester, con-
sists of an 8-hour course in radio com-
munication, accompanied by one 4-hour
course in electrical engineering. The
signal corps has supplied the Univer-
sity with the most modern types of
laboratory and field apparatus and it
is possible that the course of instruc-
tion will be run during a 12-weeks
summer session, giving 12 hours Uni-
versity credit.
When a student has enlisted .in the
new corps, he is placed on the inac-
tive list and is allowed to remain in
college until the completion. of his
course, or he may enter the signal
corps at the end of his signal course.
When, on completing his course, the
student is taken into active service,
he is given the option of going into
the signal corps school for further
training, or taking transfer to some
engineering branch of the army.
"The work of radio communication
in the signal corps represents one of
the most valuable services for univer-
sity trained men, and there is press-
ing need for a number of well train-
ed men in this work," said Professor
Parker yesterday afternoon.
Major John C. Moore, of the signal
corps, in discussing the new course,
said:, "It is believed that students
who are assigned to these radio schools
will be commissioned if they showin
their work while at the school that
they ai e qualified."
