Edward Mose-Jy and Sterling W. Browm, studentsin the Divinity School.Approved as “practical and at¬tractive” by sociologists and econo¬mists here, the plan provides forfounding a “non-communistic” com¬munity for ten or more marriedcouples seldcted to represent variousfields of interest.The proposed colony would be lo¬cated near a small town or ranchleased for at lea.st two years, or onhomesteaded land retained by thegrouip. Here, working out “an ap¬prenticeship in social living,” thegroup would carry on a shared, co¬operative life in order to “realizetheir hopes prevented by the eco¬nomic debacle.”“Such a proposal,” the authors.stale, “will give the members some¬thing to do, provide an outlet forthe natural interests of our lives,keep up our morale, affording crea¬tive activity and study in social liv¬ing.” jThe propo.sal, its authors have |stated, is not a panacea for the de- :pre.ssion, but an experiment in a ishared life. Believing that the next jfew months may force them to ac¬tion, they do not wish “to let thedepression destroy their chances fora normal existence.” PICCARD TELLSOF OBSERVATIONSIN STRATOSPHERE Appoint Bigelow, as Trustee forInsull CompanyMrs. Hutchins, ProfessorAdler, Speak Nextin SeriesForecasting that in the near fu¬ture there wdll be daily airplaneservice between Europe and Amer¬ica, Professor Auguste Piccard, Bel¬gian scientist, told a Mandel hallaudience last night of his exiplora-tions and observations in the strato¬sphere.

The door of a room in theSherman House opens and a tall,sparse man with rumpled hair anda somewhat dlsti-aught manner smilesas he asks, in a guttural accent:“Won’t you come in?”It is Auguste Piccard, Belgianscientist and explorer of the strat¬osphere. Mild and scholarly in ap¬pearance, he nods an introductionto his brother, .lean, who, it appears,is to serve as interpreter.“You had a pleasant journey byplane from the coast?”Here the cause of the Piccards’excitement comes out. A torrent ofwords, some English and someFrench, is released. The strato¬sphere scientist explains, with theaid of his brother in moments whenlanguage fails, that their air fightto Chicago was abandoned whentheir plane was grounded somewherein Arkansas, whereupon the broth¬ers took a train in order to keeptheir engagements in this city.‘Now,” Jean Piccard asserts, “ifwe had been traveling in the strato¬sphere as we soon will, weatherconditions would matter not at all.”F'ifteen minutes of elaborationfollows, given in a variety oftongues, on the merits of this newform of transportation which thetwo scientists hope will soon be anactuality.As the door closes, the brothersare still expounding the merits ofstratospheric travel. teresting and humorous presentationsof the economic, political, and psy¬chological aspects of the subject. jAll three lecturers have recently jbeen in Russia and have studied i: their subjects at first hand. Profes- !I sor Knight, whose lecture on “The jCase for Communism by an Ex-Lib- joral” was published because of its \wide-spread popularity, has been jheard to declare that “the true valueof commun*ism is in its religious ap- !peal.” Professor Schuman, who has |recently published a volume called '“American Foreign Relations withRussia,,” believ^es that all govern- Iment is a combination of force plusmysticism. The third speaker, Pro- 'fessor Lassw'ell, who has writ- ;ten “Psycho-pathology in ' Politics,” !will lecture under the handicap of 1his conviction that “communi<*a- ition between individuals is impossible junless there ia a fortuitous parallel- :ism of his bio-psychic elements.” IThe speakers will be introduced |by Leo Rosenberg, graduate studentof international relations.

Bank Tie-up ForcesComment PostponementThe second issue of Comment,student literary quarterly, failed tomake its scheduled appearance todayand will be published early nextquarter. Officials of the publicationannounced this move last night fol¬lowing the cancellation of several ad¬vertisements by companies whosefunds have been affected by thebank moratorium.The issue is already set uyp andready to go to press. Among its con¬tents is a hitherto suppressed warpoem by Siegfried Sassoon; a shortstory by June Raff, formerly editorof Phoenix; a short story by RobertDodson, and a sonnet by MargaretStone. The latter two are studentsat the University. The average freshman who joiijja fi’aternity will pay $204.15 forthe quarter in which he is initiatedif he lives at the house, it was re¬vealed from a study of the figurespublished in yesterday’s Daily Ma¬roon survey of fraternity fees. Anaveraging of financial requirementsof all but two fraternities show’s thatroom and board cost $121.23; dues,$15.40; and initiation fee, $62.A more thorough interpretationof the results indicates that furtherfraternal life for this average pledgewill not prove so expensive, afteri the initiation fee has been met. Thehypothetical frater at the Univer¬sity can comfortably live, eat, anddance for $142.15 a quarter, and for$426.45 a year, while residing inthe chapter house.In yesterday’s table, although thefigures reported for profit and lossare sub.stantially in agreement withI'ecords in the Dean’s office, otherlisted costs were submitted by thefraternities, and the Dean’s officehas no data that verifies them, itwas pointed out by William E.

LevineAssistant: Robert OshinsWednesday, March 8, 1933THE TIMES DEMAND ACTIONIn the past few weeks there has been a crashof detonating events in American life that havebeen significant and alarming beyond anything thathas appeared on our national or local scene formany years. A generation of American citizensborn and bred upon the belief that the UnitedStates is an all-powerful and all-wealthy nationis today viewing crises and upheavals in Amer¬ican economics and finances that are threateningto rock the complacency of the most patriotic in¬dividuals and the solidarity of the most soundinstitutions of this far-famed, but apparently vul¬nerable, nation.For several weeks financiers of American cit¬izenship but of an un-American practices have somaneuvered world money affairs as to drainmillions .of dollars of gold from their country ev¬ery day, precipitating a financial crisis that hasclosed the nation's banks. For several monthsAmerican people have grown increasingly con¬cerned about the strength and the safety of theirfinancial structures and have withdrawn other mil¬lions of dollars from weakening banks.In the midst of such a situation, a president isinaugurated, a mayor of the country’s second larg¬est city dies, and a people read their daily news¬papers with increasing concern about affairs athome and in the nation’s capital.Out of this cataclysm there will come orderonly if governmental officials in this country fin¬ally realize that now, as never before, it is timefor them to lay aside political and sectional in¬terests and cooperate for the recovery of Americaas a whole. Flow any member of any state ornational governing body, in the face of the pre¬carious facts of national affairs today, can dootherwise than strive for the welfare of a total causeis difficult for the rational person to imagine. Howany poltician today can believe that the publicmind will tolerate further inefficiency and wasteful¬ness of time and money upon the part of govern¬mental divisions is equally impossible for the saneobserver to understand.Whether it be a matter of national legislationto protect depositors’ hank accounts, or whetherit be a matter of selecting a new mayor for thecity of Chicago, it is necessary today that politicalleaders, if they never have before, should realizethat their destiny, as well as that of the peoplethey represent, requires a sane and intellight activ¬ity if we are to progress to firmer ground.if that intelligence and allegiance to the rulesof common sense is revealed upon the part ofthese leaders, the masses of American people today will respond to their leadership as has neverbeen the case in previous years.—W.

Prob¬lems in selection, use and digestibil¬ity of foods are solved by the pros¬pective homemakers, under the di¬rection of Dr. Evelyn G. Halliday,associate professor of Home Eco¬nomics at the University.Special instruments are used intesting foods. For example, studiesin roast beef are now being con¬ducted by which the tenderness ofdifferent cuts of the meat are in¬vestigated. An instrument called thepenetrometer is used, and it gaugesthe tenderness of the beef by thedepth penetrated by a needle of themachine in a certain number of sec¬onds. The greater the depth towhich the needle of the instrumentgoes, the less tough is the meat.Another apparatus simulates thedigestive conditions of the stomach.This is a metal box which is heatedto body temperature. In it, beakersare placed with prepared digestivefluids which are kept in constantmotion by electric mixers. Samplesof food are placed in this electricoven in the fluid and tested to de¬termine the effects of cooking thefood on the digestive processes. Forinstance, it has been found that the istarch of cereals that have been 'cooked twenty minutes are as easily |digested as those that have beencooked for an hour and a half.Other experiments with this arti- ,ficial digestor show that lobster, 'which has long been thought to be jhard to digest, is in reality as easily jassimilated as oysters, and both areprobably as easily digested as anyother food, such as steak.

I don’t knowjust what it is, but somehow or ot^rI’ve just got to slip out in the woodsand sit down on a log. I always take theold pipe along. Thinking somehow seemseasier when you are smoking a pipe. Ican fill up my pipe with Granger, andsomehow just seem to see things clearerthan at any other time.’’Don’t know what it is about Granger,but it must be made for pipes—real pipetobacco.’’Somehow, there’s a flavor and aromaabout Granger I never found in any othertobacco. When I pack my old pipe tightand good with these big Granger flakes,it’s about the coolest smoke I everenjoyed. It makes me downright pipehungry every time I look at the package.”Some years ago we made a painstaking. ©1933lIGGEn & MYERSTOBACCO CO.scientific study to find out, if we could,the kind of tobacco best suited for pipes.Down in the Blue Grass regions ofKentucky, we • found a tobacco calledWhite Burley. There is a grade of thistobacco between the kind used for chew¬ing and the varieties suitable for cigarettesthat is best suited for pipes. This tobaccois used in Granger. ■ITiis tobacco is prepared by a methodworked out many years ago by Mr. J. N. The Granger pouchkeeps ihe tobacco JreshWellman. It gives Granger a fragranceand mellowness that pipe smokers like,and makes it burn to a clean, dry ash.Granger never gums a pipe.Granger has not been on sale very long,but it has come to be popular, and thereis this much about it: We have yet toknow of a man who started smoking it,who didn’t keep on. Folks seem to like it.
