The premiership then was of-rod to Fernand Bouisson, agedesident of the Chamber of Dep¬ies, w’ho also refused.At 10 .A. M. tomorrow the pre-er.ship will be o.iered to Edouard•rriott, former premier and honor-y chairman of the Radical-Socialistrty. Di.ssention within the party,wever, makes it most doubtful thathomogeneous cabinet can be form-hy Herriott to succeed I^ival’salition. For this reason, it is gen-filly believed Herriott also will ro¬se to head the government.Likely next choice may be Marcelgnier, retiring Finance minister,Albert Sarraut.The Bank of France, with double’ amount of gold behind its notesit is required by law and with arantic exchange compensation fundits dispo-sal to use against'culators, displayed its customarym front.KiTect upon international relationsoly would be a closer alliance withgland and the I^eague of Nations,ance’s traditional recent policy.talians ReachAll Objectives inNorthern DriveROME, Thursday, Jan. 23—(UP)rhe tremendous Italian drive on‘ northern Ethiopian front is pro-•ding successfully and all first-dayiectives were reached, dispatchesni Asmara said today.Stubborn Ethiopian resistances broken by bayonet charges andoperate hand-to-hand fighting and“ Italian drive to engulf Tembeinitinued unchecked, the dispatchesd- The Italians recaptured twodtions lost to Ethiopians in De-nber when the blacks made a sur-se attack.rhe object of the attack is two-<1; 1) occupation of the mountainsween Makala and branches ofi Takazze river, 2) occupation of' big bond of the Takazee southMakale.iV’hile a right wing offensive pro-ded, the Italian center, preparingattack, opened an intensive artil-y fire to destroy Ethiopian on-nchments, machine gun nests andlervation posts immediately southMakale.

Ker¬win, assistant dean of the SocialSciences and professor of PoliticalScience told 119 members of theFederation of Women’s clubs yester¬day. “But this year, the real showwill be the Republican instead of theDemocratic convention."As .second speaker this morning atthe Current Affairs institute QuincyWright, professor of InternationalLaw, told of a world wide reactionalswing to “totalities" and dictator¬ships.Professor Kerwin predicted littleexcitement in the Democratic camp,with Roosevelt, despite GovernorTalmadge, renominated.In unusual contrast, the Republi¬can forces will be torn between theBorah liberalists and the Hooverconservatives—with Borah proving a“Brj’an of 1912.’’ But neither will bethe Republican nominee. Kerwinlooks for a “slightly gray horse inGovernor Landon because of his ac¬ceptability to the ea.st for his budg¬et balancing work and the west forthis agricultural interest. However,Senator Vandenburg of Michigan,Leagu e ActionRebuffs ItalyBritain Announces Mili¬tary Alliance withFrance and Balkans.(Copyrijfht. 1936, by United Pre*»)GENEVA, Jan. 22—League ofNations developments today wentheavily against Italy’s aspirationsfor African conquest. Of four ma¬jor actions taken by the assembledpowers, led - again by dominantGreat Britain, two definitely wereantagonistic to Italy, one was a drawand one w'as somewhat in the Fasciststate’s favor.They were:1. The League council decided to Imove towards an oil embargo againstItaly. A committee of experts wasappointed to a.scertain if oil .sanc¬tions could be made effective.2. Britain announced a militaryalliance with P’rance, Greece, Tur¬key and Jugoslavia and these nationspledged aid should Italy attackBritain because of sanctions. Ru¬mania and Czechoslovakia promptlyjoined this group, making seven na¬tions pledged to combined actionagainst Italy should war come overefforts to stop the Italo-Ethiopianconflict.3. The League declined to send aneutral investigating body to Ethio¬pia, which Ethiopia asked and towhich Italy consented.4. The League concilation com¬mittee published a report that nonew peace proposals are possible atthe present time ,and that theI..eague should pursue a policy ofwatchful waiting.Eden Behind MoveYoung Captain Anthony Eden,British foreign secretary, was behindtoday’s developments. His revelationof Britain’s arrangements for mu¬tual armed aid if the tense Mediter¬ranean situation explodes, came justafter the committee of 18 had mov¬ed toward an oil embargo, of whichBritain is the principal advocate.Eden’s note, addressed to thechairman of the committee of 18, ex¬plained that Brtain "wished to as¬certain whether, in event of special(Continued on page 2) hostile to the Newmay be mentioned. A clashBorah on monetary policiesbe expected from Vanden-Deal,withcouldburg.“Sooner or later there must be achange in either the Supreme Courtor the Constitution’’ concluded Pro¬fessor Kerwin. “The real issue willbe covered by hubbub of the cam¬paign. Try to maintain an intelligentcalm, and don’t take too much stockin the Digest poll till the last weeks."Analyzing the factors leading tothe present “distressing internation¬al condition," Professor Wrightopined, “After every major catastro¬phe, such as the last world war, therecome depressions—a minor two orthree years later, and a major, 10or 12 years later. Added to this isthe inability of man to adjust his in¬stitutions to the rapid change of ma¬terial conditions.Democracy DyingThe old gods of progress, democ¬racy, and humanitarianism have giv¬en way to nationalism, radicalism, andlocal culture. A reactionary worldis willingly believing in dictators,taking their words as the truth."The period of successful colonialexpansion has passed,” assertedWright. “Japan must pay 10 percent more for iron from her newlyacquired territory of Manchukuothan that from Minnesota. Her an¬nual population increase is over 1,-000,000 per year, and so far only40,000 colonists are in the new land."Italy cannot hope to ease her pop¬ulation pressure through Ethiopia. Ifshe raises the inhabitants of Ethio¬pia to a state where they will forman effective market for goods, thenatives will be in a position to re¬volt.Campus Weather -Prophet Aims atRecord FreezeTHE ABCs(Contributions to The ABCswill be accepted by the editor.)INTERDEPENDENCEThe men of today know that notpolitics, as Napoleon said, but eco¬nomics make destiny.

In1919 he was sent to Cambridge, thefirst of his countrymen to obtain anoccidental education as a part of theWesternization program.Zaphiro is now making a good¬will tour of the United States, withthe purpose of interesting people inthe Ethiopian cause and raising mon¬ey for medical relief.

The profes¬sors who made statements are Fay-Cooper Cole, William Fielding Og-burn, and Frank Nugent Freeman,Dr. Ogbum, professor of Sociol¬ogy, explained that there is no ra¬tionality to the use of capitals, andthat they are the survival of a pastaccident, but that there is little hopefor getting rid of them.Ogburn has had considerable ex¬perience in this field of Sociology. Hewas once with a newspaper which at¬tempted to introduce a more simpli¬fied spelling, but failed because ofprejudice. The sociologist predictsmany emotional connotations, espe¬cially from elderly men, which willlimit the success of the Maroon ven¬ture, Personally, Ogburn favors theelimination of capitals, and thinksthe proposed Maroon experiment a“bully good thing."Cole, chairman of the departmentof Anthropology, in which the scopeof the experiment lies, commentedcritically:“The experiment sounds interest¬ing. Doubtless many readers will ob¬ject to changing traditional habits;on the other hand operators of ma¬chines may find the omission of cap¬itals a boon. At any rate, we canstand the trial for a week.”Freeman, professor of Education¬al P.sychology, estimates from experi¬ ments in reading that the omissionof capitals will slow the reader onlyfor a short time. However, he knowsof no experiments done specificallyon capital letters. His comment thatomission of capitals will not makemuch difference to the readeris tentative.A part of the experiment will bethe printing of pertinent observa¬tions by authorities.Donate Proceeds ofJSF Dance to FundWith the anticipation of donatinga sum of money to the general schol¬arship fund of the University as theresult of its dance, the Jewish Stu¬dent foundation sponsors its thirdannual affair at the Standard clubSunday at 9.

The pro¬ceeds of the dance that were turnedover to the scholarship fund at thattime amounted to approximately fiftydollars. The incentive for ticket sel¬lers this year is to increase the do¬nation.Bids, priced at $1.50 a couple, canbe purchased from any member ofthe Foundation.

JANUARY 23, 1936Introduce AAA Substitute Bill;Based on Soil Conservation PlanWASHINGTON, Jan. 22—(UP)—|The new deal’s substitute for the un¬constitutional AAA, a bill empower¬ing the Secretary of Agriculture topay formers who cooperate volun¬tarily in a program of soil conserva¬tion, was introduced in congress to¬day by Senator John B. Bankhead,and Representative Marvin Jones,both Democrats.Its life was fixed at two years andwhile no appropriation was included,Bankhead immediately sought fundsto put it into operation by attempt¬ing to add $440,000,000 to the inde¬pendent offices bill. ILeaders hope to have it enactedby February 15, the deadline set bySecretary of Agriculture Henry A.Wallace if it is to apply to this year’scrops.Wallace said at his press confer¬ence today that he believed the newplan constitutional and predicted it“might even work out better thanthe AAA.”Doubts ConstitutionalityDoubting its constitutionality wasSenator Charles L. McNary, who issponsoring a farm plan of his own.Through the new bill, which wouldamend the soil conservation act of1935, the administration hopes to at¬tain the basic objective of the AAA,which was to control production soas to raise farm prices and increaseagricultural income and purchasingpower.Where the AAA authorized writ- ,ten contracts with farmers for ben- !efit payments in return for reduc¬tion of acreage, the new bill speci¬fically bars contracts.Where the AAA empowered theSecretary to tax processors for themoney to make benefit payments, thenew bill omits any reference to atax.W’here the old AAA contract sys¬tem enabled the secretary to speci¬fy how many acres could be plantedwith certain crops, the new bill giveshim authority to “make payments orgrant other aid” on the basis of (1)their acreage of soil improving orerosion preventing crops; (2) theiracreage of crop land; (3) changesin the use of their land; (4) per¬centage of their normal productionof the normal national productionconsumed domestically.Purposes of BillThe new bill states as it.s purposes:1. Preservation and improvementof soil fertility.2. Promotion of the economic useof land.3. Diminution of exploitation andunprofitable use of national soil re¬sources.4. Provision for and maintenanceof a continuous and stable supplyof agricultural commodities adequateto meet domestic and foreign con¬sumer requirements at prices fair toboth producers and consumers.5. Re-establishment and mainte¬nance of farm purchasing power.One of the important features ofthe bill is a declaration that soil con¬servation is a question affectingnational welfare. This apparentlywas motivated by a desire to line thebill up with that constitutional clausewhich permits congress to legislatefor the general welfare.

Tonight he left by trainfor Sandringham to complete ar¬rangements for the funeral of hisfather, George V, on Tuesday.Salute to EdwardThe pageantry began when a bat¬tery of artilery boomed 41 salutes—one for each year of life of KingEdward.

Inflation Loomsas Farm BillGains SupportWASHINGTON, Jan. 22—(UP)—The threat of inflation was renewedin congress tonight with strong pros¬pects that the House will be forcedto a vote next month on the Frazier-Lemke bill providing a $3,000,000,-000 expansion of the currency to re¬finance farm mortgages.Frazier-Lemke forces lack onlyfour of the required 218 signaturesto a petition to force house consid¬eration of the measure. A suddengain in strength immediately afterHouse passage of the bill to pay thesoldiers’ bonus with $50 bonds in¬dicated that inflationists intend toconcentrate their drive this sessionon the farm relief issue.There remained, however, possibil¬ity of a later drive for a greenbackissue to pay those veterans whowant to cash their bonus bonds assoon as they get them. An attempt tomake such a provision in the compro¬mise bonus bill was voted down inthe Senate this week.Further threats to the administra¬tion's monetary program came fromtwo sources tonight.

While I ex¬press to your excellency my sincer-est happiness, I also convey mypraise to the officers and troops,both national and native, who, dur¬ing the entire period of operations,have given proof of high valor andgfi^at resistance.” By ELROY“A decrease in the proportion of lthe total population that is undertwenty years of age; a changed at-,titude toward childhood; an increas-jed utilization of machinery on farms 'and in manufacturing plants that hasbeen accompanied by reduced em-!ployment of children; the increase Inwealth in the United States.” iIn this way did George A. Works, jdean of students and University ex- jaminer, list the chief .social changes jthat have made it necessary to dras-1tically alter higher education whenhe discussed “Trends in College Ed¬ucation” with Aaron J. Brumbaugh,acting dean of the College, at yes¬terday afternoon’s session of the In¬stitute on Current Affairs in Judsoncourt. The forum is sponsored joint¬ly by the Illinois Federation of WomJen’s clubs and the University col¬lege.Dean Works explained that thesefactors have resulted in a markedtendency to prolong the period ofschooling of the young. ‘The result jis that we now have a much larger !proportion of our youth from 14 to'|21 years of age in educational in-1stitutions than are to be found inother countries. We have chosen to icare for the educational needs of {this large number of young persons 'in the cosmopolitan type of institu¬tion rather than by segregation in |special institutions on the basis of^i GOLDINGability, aptitude or special interest.”As a result, said Dean Works, thesecondary schools and junior col¬leges of the country must struggleconcurrently with the problems ofgeneral and vocational educationand college preparation while col¬leges mu.st adapt curriculum to thechanged composition of college pop¬ulation. Dean Works found the de¬velopment in many colleges of thecomprehensive examination, the com¬prehensive course, and extension ofthe period of general education to besignificant attempts to meet the newconditions in composition of Univer¬sity population.That social, personal, and intel¬lectual integration of the student asnecessary purposes of the Universitymake essential a minimum of fac¬ ulty control of students was thethesis expounded by Dean Brum¬baugh.“Young people who enter collegeare confronted with many difficultproblems,” emphasized Dean Brum¬baugh. These include problems of“choosing a college, and a vocation;courses and instructors; methods ofstudy; finances; formulating a satis¬factory philosophy of life; living ar¬rangements; health; making socialadjustments; personality problems; Iand extra-curricular activities.” But, jexplained Mr. Brumbaugh, though it jmay cost him time and money, it will jmake a man of the student to meet,these problems for himself, and this !is the course we encourage. “Our jpoint of view is that the student is!mature and able to manage his own ,affairs until he demonstrates that he jcannot.” 'The Institute will be concluded Itoday with lectures in the morningby Frank H. O’Hara, associate pro-'fessor of Engli.sh, and by Dr. Man- :del Sherman, associate professor ofEducational Psychology. Harry O, ,Gillet, principal of the Elementary'school, and William C.

JANUARY 23. 1936 Page ThreeReligious BookBoard SelectsAubrey’s WorkCollapse of Western European andAmerican culture unless Christian¬ity formulates a plan of reconstruc¬tion is predicted by Edwin E.Aubrey, professor of Christian Theo¬logy, in a book published today en¬titled “Present Theological Tenden¬cies.” The volume has been chosenreliyjous book-of-the-«nonth by theReligious Book Club board which iscomposed of Charles Clayton Morri¬son, Harry Emerson Fosdick, S.Parkes Cadman, Howard ChandlerRobbins, and Mary Wooley.Dr. Aubrey challenges modernChristianity to face the problem ofreconstruction, to supply a sense ofdirection, to stimulate devotion totrue values, and to bolster morale.Estimating the modern publictemper of the moment. Dr. Aubreywrites, “Apparently men are tired ofbeing objective. The post-war reac¬tion against fervid self-commitmentto a cause has died down. The in-effectualness of detached thinking isl)eginning to pall. P.sychiatri.sts are jrecognizing the disintegration of per-1sonalily that comes where no domi¬nant purpose controls individual life.The insipidness of so many modern‘believers’ who are so broad as to be jflat has arrested the attention of |many thoughtful religious leaders. |Theology and Emotion"A religion of devotion—and there:is no other kind—must reckon withideas which have become centers of jemotional organization of the be- jliever’s life.Dr. .\ubrey sees the same strug¬gle between collectivism and indi¬vidualism raging in the Christian re¬ligion that is found in present po¬litical systems of Europtj, especiallym Russia, Germany, and Italy.“The forces of individualism in re¬ligion," he says, “appear to Ik? capit-iulating to the forces of collectivism,though which will win is yet doubt¬ful.More than Mere Assent“We are more aware than former¬ly of the fact that religiou.s beliefsif devoted belief, are not mere assent,but a commitment to the object ofbelief. Yet this commitment is threat¬ened from two epimsite sources: fromthe .sense of complexity which par¬alyzes decision and from the dog¬matic authoritarianism that insistsu|M>n a.s.sent without being sure ofindividual understanding.“The Chri.stian mes.sage is signifi¬cant for us today,” maintains Dr..Aubrey, “because it has always beena .simjilification of life. Complexitydrives us to despair. We must ac¬cept simplicities.”••^11 contemporary trends of thoughtwithin the Christian faith—modern¬ism. dialectical theo’figy, neo-Thom-1ism, naturalism, and supernatural¬ism—are discu.s.secj in “Recent Theo¬logical Tendencies” with an attemptto catch the enthusiasm of the ex-jionents of each branch of modernthought in the Christianity of today.At present Dr. Aubrey is collabor¬ating with other American and Eu¬ropean theologicans in preparatoryresearch for the Christian Confer¬ence on Life and Work, which willbe held at Oxford, England, nextyear. In view of the plight of theGerman churches, one of the chiefproblems before the Conference willbe the relation of the Church and theState.

His social dramas shriekedand expostulated against the tradi¬tional confines of the Victoriandrama. His “Pillars of Society,”“Hedda Gabler,” “Ghosts” and “ADi ll’s House” became the center ofvitriolic debate by connoisseurs ofliterature and the arts.But today Ibsen has shrunk, pop¬ularly, to the stature of a nonentity.His plays attract only a limited audi¬ence. His battles, fought and wonthree decades ago, appear tame be-.side other and present-day problems.It is a matter of much debate yt.,how’ever, as to the eventual placeIbsen w'ill hold among dramatists.There are some who feel his woi-ksare universal and timeless. Thereare others, like myself, who feel thathis work.s are decadent and dated,save for his great poetic drama,“Peer Gynt.”Therefore, credit must be given toMine. Alla Nazimova for resurrecting“Ghosts,” and for, above all, hav¬ing the courage to tour the countrywith it. She has assembled a mag¬nificent cast in the four suppoitingroles, and the entire production hasbeen admirably paced by her direc¬tion. Although I fear the troupe isnot playing to sold-out houses, theresponse is nevertheless sufficient toindicate that her name still has aglamorous hold upon the public, andthat there are those who are willingto bear with Ibsen’s painfully passesocial problems in order to admirethe perfection of his dramatic tech¬nique. For in Ibsen modern dramaticmethods first found their highestform, and his .skillful constructionyet serves as a model for contempo¬rary playwrights.Mme.

Travelling BarMost Beautiful Girls Chosenby Campus Boysher too prominent a starring role.The play is well knit, and the small¬ness of the cast leads to individual¬ly outstanding performances on thepart of all. Mme. Nazimova does herrole tragically, achieving her effectsby means of subtle histrionic and vo¬cal understatement. Her dominantquality in this play is silent hopeless¬ness, and timing of the play givesample space for these dramaticpauses. The performance is so pacedthat when crises do come they comewith the shattering fortissimo of ap¬proaching thunder, climaxing in ablinding lightning flash.The entire production ha.s thegloom of mind that is present in Os¬wald’s tortured brain. The sunstreaming through the windows iscold, the sets are stark and grey, thevision of the enveloping fjordsthrough the huge window is oppres¬sive. Stewart Chaney’s set is admir¬able by virtue of its support of thedullness of Ibsen’s work, and coup¬led with the .slow-moving directioneffectively casts over the audiencethe same pall which weighs on Os¬wald’s sunless mind.Harry Ellerbe is superb in his neu¬rotic conception of Oswald. Al¬though his final scene, where he goesmad, is not up to his early work inthe play, the entire feel of the char¬acter is never lost on the audience,and the oppressive finality of hiscondition is perfectly conceived. Mc¬Kay Morris as Manders gives a per¬fect performance. No more can be.said. The choice of Beatrice de Near-gaard (with Dennis King in “Rich¬ard of Bordeaux”) as Regina is (Iam told by friends who have seenboth) a happy gain over the puerileperformance of Ona Munson in theNew York opening. I can well be¬lieve it. And Raymond O’Brien asEngserand achieves highlights ofcomedy which serve to etch deeperthe tragic cast of the play.By C.

Last year, he hauler downconference scoring honors withsome 156 points with the Maroonstaking only one game out of twelve.As for the current cage season,Haarlow seems well on his way to arepeat for the conference crow'n,leading the scoring column with 55points, three more than his nearestrival, Warren Whitlinger, the Buck¬eye’s flashy forward. And speakingof scoring honors, Bill Lang, Haar-lows’ running mate, up to the pres¬ent time is really the only other Ma¬roon basketeer who can attract anyof the opponent’s defense tacticsaway from Haarlow and give him anopportunity to break for the basket.Lang remains well up in the scoringpositions with a total of 32 points.* • *When a powerful Indiana fivebatted down the Badger quintet atMadison Monday, they clinched forthemselves, temporarily at any rate,the right to be listed as conferenceleaders. Although the Boilermakershave no losses chalked up againstthem, the Indiana boys win priorityrights with their five wins to Pur¬due’s three.

At thisauspicious point, Haarlow limberedup and dropped in three field goalsand two free throws to cinch the is¬sue.The tense closing minutes of thegame came unexpectedly, althoughthere was plenty of color throughout.It was only after the home team ledat the half, 24-13, that Marquettebroke aw'ay from a deliberate defen¬sive game to stage a preliminary ral¬ly, bringing the score to 25-21. Chi¬cago again pulled ahead with a scor¬ing spree which included KendallPetersen’s first basket in weeks,right handed and left-handed aero- jbat tosses by Haarlow, and two ofLang’s dead-sure arch shots. iEirich Leads RallyAt this point, the handsome Eirich jled the Milwaukee aggregation to- jward a tie-up. Captain Rubado sank ia Ted Merriwell at full speed. Af¬ter a close shot by Amundsen, Langwent out on fouls, and Sokodyevened the contest at 38-38. Thiswas the final Marquette threat.The Maroons exhibited a greatly-improved offensive last night, andare thus encouraged for the battlewith Northwestern’s polished quin¬tet at Evanston Saturday night.Defensively, Chicago left several wideopenings, especially at center. Whenthe game spurted, passing and drib¬bling became quite ragged, and shotsflew furiously.Every Chicagoan scored. Jim Gor¬don, who substituted for Lang,dropped in the final point before thefinal bell after a foul. However,Eirich added a gratuitous beneficeshot after the game was over.Amundsen and Petersen eachcommittted three personal fouls, butFitzgerald played an excellent guard¬ing game with only one penalty against him. Two of the fouls call¬ed on Lang, as well as a coupleagainst the opposing team, seemeddoubtful.Eirich’s five field goals were madefrom all angles, at times bringing anunfavorable light upon the elong¬ated Amundsen. However, Amund¬sen’s two baskets and excellent back-board recoveries and a ray of hopefor Maroon development in the lasthalf of the conference race, endingMarch 7. The sophomore was alsooutstanding at the tip-off.Before Rasmuser tired in the sec¬ond half he held Haarlow to sixpoints by expert deflecting of thescoring leader’s underhand shots.When Rasmusen left the fray, noneremained who could hold the Mid¬way ace.Colorful Chicago plays included atip-ball knocked by Amundsen from Inear one basket to mid-floor, where jHaarlow picked it up and raced onto an open set-up.The line-up: Chicago FencersMeet Cincinnatiin Close MatchChickco (45)f* ft pfHaarlow, f 7 6 2Lang, fGordon, fAmundsen, cPetersen, g Marquette (40)fw ft pfVytiska, f 10 3McMahon, fSokodi, fEirich, c3 Rubado, gF'itzgerald, k 1 2 Ij O’Keefe, gRasmusen. gTouts 15 16 14| ToutsReferee: Travnicek, Armour.Craiic, Illinois Wesleyan.6 41 10 302 2 12 18 20 20 30 114 12 13Umpire:Announce HandballTourney for FacultyW’ith over 75 questionnaires sentyesterday to faculty members to de¬termine whether or not there is aninterest in a faculty handball tour¬ney, Coach Clark Shaughne.ssy de¬clared ye.sterday that drawings forthe tournament would probably beannoungj'd next week.

V. Merrill statedwhen last interviewed.The Maroons, with all six letter-men back at the weapons, expect totake the meet, but Cincinnati has thestrongest team in years, havingdowned Purdue last week. The Cin¬cinnati coach, in the campus newspa¬per of that university, conjecturedthat his fencers would break even intheir two meets this week-end inChicago. The other tilt, which seemsto loom harder in the Cincinnatians’minds, is with Northwestern.George Washington university ofSt. Louis, which previously expresseda desire to meet Chicago here, hasdecided to postpone the meeting un¬til later in the season.
