GIFTS TO THE UNIVERSITY
The Detroit Free Press in speaking
of President Hutchin's recent report
in which he points out that gifts
amounting oniy to $2,000,000 have
been given to the University in the
last 10 years suggests that "some
philanthropically disposed citizen of
Michigan can perform a valuable serv-
ice to his state and nation if he will
establish a large endowment" for the
University. It seems almost opposed
to Michigan's ideals of democracy, of
which we are so proud, that the Uni-
versity should have to depend to
largely upon the few "philanthropical-
ly disposed citizens" for the financial
aid supplementary to that of the state
treasury. With the exception of the
new Michigan Union building, Alumni
Memorial hall, and a possible one or
two other projects, gifts to the Uni-
versity have been those of philan-
thropy.
In the cases of Alumni Memorial
hall and the new Michigan Union
there has been something greater than
philanthropy. There has been a re-
sponse by the alumni body to the
sense of duty and obligation, and the
feeling that every Michigan graduate
owes more to the University than he
can ever repay. It is along such lines
that a greater growth and develop-
ment should be fostered, and the feel-
ing of obligation to the University
should not make its doubtful appear-
ance for the first time years after
graduation, but rather it should be
fully instilled during the undergrad-
uate days. Possibly there are too
many of us who leave the University
with the idea that we have fully re-
imbursed it for value received by the
mere payment of our annual tuition.
One of the purposes of the Student
council and the combined memorial
committees of all the senior classes
last year in starting a single memorial
of all classes and departments in the
form of a large endowment fund was
to develop to a greater degree the
spirit of giving, to the University. It
washoped too that before long this,
endowment fund might be added to by
gifts from the alumni.
Most important of all, it is to be
hoped that the plan conceived last
year will be adopted by the classes of
1917, thus changing a system of small
and practically useless gifts to one
which will in time and with steady
growth become of great benefit to the
University, a gift coming not from the
philanthropy of an occasional indiv-
idual, but rather from the sense of
obligation of the entire student and
alumni bodies.
A CONFERENCE REFERENDUM
The Daily is printing. this morning
a communication taking issue with the
statement made by one of Michigan's
representatives at the Student council
conference at Purdue to the effect that
a majority of Michigan students and
faculty members favored a return to
the western conference. The commun-
icant goes farther and asks that the
Student council conduct a referendum
vote to be taken on the campus in
order to register student sentiment in
regard to Michigan's possible return
to the conference.
It has appeared to The Daily
through sentiment expressed in com-
munications, and general expression of
sentiment on the campus, that Michi-
gan students for the most part favor
a resumption of athletic relations with
our western rivals. If there is a
strong faction on the campus at the
present time which is opposed to a
return, we believe that the question
should be thoroughly discussed and a
referendum vote conducted by the Stu-
dent council. While it believes that an
immediate resumption of western re-
lations is necessary for the best inter-
ests of Michigan athletics, The Daily
does not believe that this step should
be taken in opposition to the will of
the student and alumni bodies. Ac-
cordingly The Daily will continue to
hold its columns open for a free dis-
cussion of the subject, and in the
event that opposition is indicated un-
friendly to a resumption of conference
relations will recommend to the conn-
cil that a vote be taken.

CONDUCT REFERENDUM ON RE-
TURN TO "BIG NINE"
Editor, The Michigan Daily:
I would like to make inquiry as
to where the representative of Michi-
gan at Purdue last week obtained his
authority for telling the other dele-
gates at that conference that "the stu-
dents, faculty, and alumni are now al-
most unanimously in favor of" re-
turning to the conference? And if he
was so authorized to speak, on what
basis was that authority given? Who
knows how the majority of the stu-
dents, faculty and alumni stand on this

question? No vote has been taken of
any of these bodies since 1913, when
the campus overwhelmingly voted not
t6 go back.
Why has there not been a similar
vote taken this year? Has the campus
no recourse against the narrow, one
sided, selfish campaign that has been
conducted in the editorials of your
paper? I am of the firm belief that
the campus in general is not in favor
of this return. And if the alumni as-7
sociations which are not situated so<
near the conference colleges were tor
be given a chance to vote on the ques-

tion probably the alumni would not
be unanimously in favor of going back.
If it is up to the Student council to
conduct such a vote then let's see
some action at once so the Regents
may know how the students stand on
a return. In 1913 the students voted
against it and the Regents did also.
