She was one of the 85 dele-

Insurance Legislation Designed to Aid
in Controlling Spread of
Tuberculosis.
New York, Oct. 10.-The National
Association for the Study and Preven-
tion of Tuberculosis announces that
nearly 1,500 anti-tuberculosis associa-I
tions in the United States will be asked
to participate in a campaign for
health insurance legislation by the
American Association of Labor Legis-
lation. During the coming winter
more than 20 states will see bills, ask-
ing for health insurance legislation,
introduced.
Health insurance is designed to aid
in controlling the spread of tubercu-
losis. First it will provide means for
locating cases now hidden to ordinary
methods, and secondly it will help to
secure the much needed medical care
in hospitals. But the greatest benefit
to be derived will come from the pro-
motion of periodic physical 'examina-
tions in all industries, because em-
ployers and employes alike would be
interested to see that this most deadly
disease was discovered before it had
developed too far..
The proposed bills provide for an in-
surance fund maintained by the peo-
ple and the state. Every worker earn-
ing $100 a month or less will be cov-
ered by these laws, which anti-tuber-
culosis workers believe to be the
greatest preventative measure ever in-
troduced in this country.
Prof. Thieme Publishes New Book
Prof. Hugo P. Thieme is the author
of a book on the History of French
Versification recently published in
France. The book contains a preface
by M. Gustav Lanson, and is publish-
ed by H. Champion, one of the Paris
publishers, whose work has not been
stopped by the war.
The University extension department
has organized a series of credit courses
this year to be given in Detroit, Jack-
son, Saginaw, Battle Creek, and other
cities in the state. The courses given
entitle the student to two hours of
University credit.
In Detroit, Prof. C. H. Van Tyne
held the first meeting of his class in
political and constitutional history of
the United States last Saturday at the
Central high school. The enrollment
in this course, although large at the
first meeting, will not be complete
until the next meeting of the class,
Saturday, October 21.
Prof. H. R. Cross will hold the pre-
liminary meeting of his course in fine
arts Thursday evening in the Cass
Technical high school. A room is now
being fitted up at the Central high
school for Professor Cross' classes.
Work on the Michigan Union na-
tional membership campaign will be
continued during the next two months.
A. large number of alumni all over the
United States 'who did not tespond
when the big campaign was on last
fall will be asked to wear the life
membership button.
This work is being done quietly as
the national committees believe that
enough money to continue the Union
building operations for the time being
has been raised. That they are cer-
tain of this fact is shown by their
ordering the building committee to go
ahead with their plans. The cities
of Pittsburg and Buffalo will be cov-
ered, cities where practically' no work
was done in the campaign last fall.
BOORKREVIEWS
Year Book of the Carnegie Endow-
ment for International Peace, 2 Jack-
son Place, Washrxgton, D. C.
One of the interesting features of
the report of the Carnegie Endow-
ment for International Peace is the
increased activity in the western
hemisphere. The European war has
put a stop to the ordinary investiga-
tions in Europe and driven the com-
mission into other fields for its ma-
terials. As a result, the divisions of
education and intercourse, and of
economics and history have practically
confined their attention to the South
'American republics. One of the re-
sults of these investigations was the
second pan-American scientific con-
gress, held at Washington in Decem-
ber, 1915. Part of the work in South
America has been the spreading of
the purposes and aims of the Carnegie
endowment among those countries.
The most important addition to the
endowment library is the vast num-
bers of pamphlets which have been re-
ceyed from Europe, the contributions
of the collaborators of the endowment
in foreign countries. This collection
constitutes the fugitive history of the
present time and will be of increasing
interest and value after the war.
One of the special undertakings of
the endowment for the past year was
the organization of the Medical Broth-
erhood, whose purpose is to secure the
influence of physicians and surgeons
toward securing a higher standard of
international morality.
One of the special phases of the
work in the field of international law
is the collection in volume form of
all the diplomatic correspondence of
the United States during the European
war.
"A Hand Book of Organizations Ad-
mitting Women to Membership" is the
title of the new pamphlet published by
the Inter-Sorority association for the
benefit of university women. A com-
mittee, with Genevieve Rowe, '17, as
chairman, assisted by Mrs. F. N.
Scott, Margaret Cooley, '18, and Alice
Wieber. '17, are responsible for the
publication. The campus organiza-
tions, their aims and accomplishments,
the various honor societies with an ex-
planation of their eligibility rules,
sororities and their locations, together
with a complete list of the rushing
rules, completes the contests.
The pampblets have been distributed
among the various sorority houses,
league houses and dormitories. They
are especially for the benefit of fresh-
men and new upperclassmen, and if
any women have been unable to ob-
tain copies, they can do so by apply-
ing to the University Y. W. C. A. It
is hoped that this paper will make
clear to all new students Michigan
women's ideals and will also prevent
misunderstandings which have arisen
in the past because of the lack of
definite information.
