Ob¬servers said this virtually abandonedthe old theory of “freedom of theseas,” which had been our policy for140 years.Today’s amendment was to reiter¬ate claims to neutrality rights underinternational law but to avoid per¬mitting citizens to call on the gov¬ernment to enforce them in a sit¬uation which might draw us intowar.

Burgess,professor of Sociology, and Dr. RuthP. Koshuk, who are nearing comple¬tion of the survey.By classifying families accordingto six basic types, this project hasnetted a wealth of new informationabout local areas of the city. Fam¬ilies are grouped in the study as nor¬mal families (husband and wife, orhusband, wife, and children), brokenfamilies (man and child, or womanand child), and non-family groups.Six additional types are afforded bymaking separate classifications fornormal families, broken families, andnon-family groups containing in ad¬dition other relatives or lodgers.Broken FamiliesFor Chicago as a whole, it has beenfound that of the families on reliefin October, 1933, exactly one-halfwere of the husband, wife, and chil¬dren type, those of the (normal) hus¬band and wife type account for nolarger a percentage (15%) than dothose of the broken family type ofwoman and child. This lends supportto the contention that deserted wom¬en with children are the type mostlikely to be forced on relief.In compiling comparative statisticsfor whites and Negroes, a significantdifference is seen in the proportions(Continued on page 3) Elxhaust Supply ofTickets for LectureAlthough the lecture by AlexanderWoollcott on “The Confessions of aDying Newspaperman” will not takeplace until 4:30 this afternoon, inMandel hall, no tickets for the talkwere available at 11 yesterday morn¬ing.This is the second lecture whichMr. Woollcott has given on campuswithin the last year, the first beingunder the auspices of the StudentLecture service last spring.

The absence fromthe list of any trusted representativeof the powerful Southwest groupwas an ominous sign, especially sinceit followed the firm refusal of onesuch leader, Chow Lu, chancellor ofthe Chungshan university at Canton,to accept the chairmanship of theKuomintang Examination Yuan. Ex-haustiv inquiries among Southwest¬ern leaders revealed that the menfrom Kwangtung and Kwangsi arenot satisfied that Chiang Kai-shekintends to deal with sufficient firm¬ness with the Japanese.

The tw'o chief center's for Univer¬sity alumni outside of Chicago arethe metropolitan districts of NewYork and Los Angeles, at the ex¬tremes of the continent, according tothe i-ecords of the Alumni office.The area within a radius of 50 milesof New York is inhabited by about1500 alumni, while Los Angeles laysclaim to 1000, compared to Chicago’s13,500 out of a total of 33,000 degree holders.By states, Illinois is first. NewYork second, California third. Thencomes a group of the surroundingmiddle we.stern states, Indiana, Ohio,Iowa and Wisconsin with slight dif¬ference in numbers.Most amusing is the fact that onlyone fifth of the students who haveregistered on the Midway have re¬ceived degrees. A total of 170,000student.s have attended the Univer¬sity, of whom 20,000 never saw thequadrangles, taking courses exclu¬sively through the Home Study de¬partment. The dispropprtion be-^tween registration and degrees islargely to be accounted for by thelarge number of summer term stu¬dents who take advantage of thesummer school to brush up theireducation, but never accumulateenough credits for a degree. TheUniversity summer school wasunique when first established andattracted enormous numbers ofschool teachers.Only slightly over half of thealumni are holders of B. A. degreesfrom the University, and the resthold higher degrees. A second un¬usual fact about the alumni is thatover half are engaged in education.A CORNER FOR READERSMOON-washed whitecaps lavethe bleached Peruviansands, rolling out the eternalrhythm of the universe. The quar¬ter-moon floats on the timelessPacific horizon. Behold, 'gainstbrilliant moon-face is silhouetteda miraculous skeletal form, glid¬ing in with the waves.When that same shore is trans¬formed by the magic rays of Aton,the greatest witch-doctor, that an¬cient stage is peopled with bronze-backed members of the tribewhich developed Inca civilization.Chattering men swarm around asoggy heap of wood, all that re¬mains of last night’s water-tossedsilhouette. They bear away fromthe derelict what cargo has notperished—cargo intended not forthe wild American coast, but fora silk-robed merchant of thrivingShanghai.The Incas had found a Chinesejunk, borne from one isolatedworld to another after disaster atsea. Before the advent of armedand armored Spaniards to the landof the Incas, many such derelictsare believed to have washed uponthe Peruvian shores. Yet when theIncas thus obtained fragments ofa more advanced culture, they didnot take advantage of their finds,according to observations by an¬thropologists.Judging from present condi¬tions, the ancient men who discov¬ered the above-described Pacificsilhouette did not realize the im¬port of their booty; nor, had theyseen that the gaudy paintings and Washed from the PastBy Edward C. Fritzfine metal-work were fragmentsof an advanced culture, wouldthey have been willing to acceptits superiority.For today, in a world of change,there are innumerable lagswhich either we do not realize orwe fail to admit. One exampleshould elucidate this invisible fog.Romans of the Republic usedthe old Phoenician alphabet whichwe still employ. However, theyhad then no distinction betweencapitals and small letters. Eachletter of the alphabet had but oneform, as had been the case sincethe Semites fir.st spread the mo¬mentous little figures through theancient world. But later, throughthe operation of those who artis¬tically copied works of literatureupon parchment manuscripts,there was introduced another formof each letter. Thus decorativecapitals came to be distinguishedfrom minuscules.Now, two thousand years later,our linotype machines have twiceas many keys as would be neces¬sary under the original system.Our news writers have pages ofdistinction to memorize. Shouldthe word, “department,” be capi¬talized or not? When is “associa¬tion” capitalized and when isn’tit? Rationally, there is no reasonfor such complexities except dec¬orative purposes. And decorationis no longer a goal of manuscripts. AS a matter of fact, this orna¬mentation which we have in¬herited blindly from pre-printingpress days is a cause of greatwaste. The shift keys on type¬writers, the time spent in learn¬ing twice as many figures ofwriting, the extra time wasted inproof-reading, the extra spaceused because of the larger size ofcapitals—all the losses in the pres¬ent traditional system seem smalluntil analyzed against a back¬ground of time and the enormousamount of writing and printingnow current. With such a view,certain authorities estimate thecost of the system in at least mil¬lions of dollars.But what is the idea of thiscriticism? Why all this foolish¬ness about such trivial subjectswhen there are far greater wastesbleeding us today? This ineffi¬cient duplicity of letters, of whichmost of us are constantly un¬aware, is presented as an exampleof our inertia. We even objectto the mentioning of this fact;but far more do we scorn any at¬tempt to economize here. For, re¬gardless of logic and reason, welike our capital letters. And weare willing to go out of our wayto find reasons to oppose anychange. This questioning angersus.So it was with the ancient In¬cas, when they stumbled on amoon-washed derelict from an¬other world. Citizens Schools j Travelling BarCommittee ElectsReavis PresidentWilliam C. Reavis, professor ofEducation, was recently electedpresident of the Citizens’ Schoolscommittee, (formerly called SaveOur Schools) for his second term.Mr. Reavis said that the Commit¬tee would continue with its originalobjectives: a better informed citizen¬ry through the dissemination of de¬pendable school information; organ¬ization of groups of interested citi¬zens for definite action in behalf ofschools; constructive economy in gov¬ernment and an honest administra¬tion of the schools; legislation toprovide a material increase in thedistributive fund from sources ofrevenue other than real estate; leg¬islation of give the Chicago super¬intendent of schools administrativecontrol and supervision of the edu¬cational system of the city; legisla¬tion to provide for a smaller andmore responsible Board of Educationfor Chicago.Volunteer MovementMr. Reavis was particularly enthu¬siastic for the organization in eachward of a volunteer citizen move¬ment. Some of the eighteen wardsso organized are holding monthlymeetings and have voluntary precinctleaders. Work is also being done inthe foreign speaking communities.Definite work will be done by theseward organizations to check regis¬tration and polling lists, and to pro¬vide watchers and challengers at theprimary election in April.Professor Reavis will be one ofthe leaders of a discussion of “Howwe can interest more citizens intheir schools?” today in 185 NorthWabash avenue, top floor.President Hutchins, Dean CharlesGilkey and Professor Charles H.Judd, head of the department of Ed¬ucation are members of the advisoryboard of Citizens School committee.
