"I don't think that acquaintancehip with Dean Green has anything to do with it. It don't look upon this as an 'Uncle Jimmy' banquet, but as an 'Adam' banquet, for the school of Law," said W. L. Burdick, vice chancellor this morning.
"It was not my pleasure to know "Uncle Jimmy" Green, but I regard no one with the reverence that I do him," said Dean H. W. Arant, speakable of Law at a concession this morning. "He was for the School of Law first, last, and always, right or wrong. This banquet is more, however, than to express reverence for "Uncle Jimmy" as a man. It is for the mom of the School of Law for Green was considerably responsible."

University Puts New Electrical Equipment Into Operation Today
Automatic Substation Installe in New Laboratory During the Holidays
At the first touch of the button, at 1:30 this morning, the equipment of the electrical laboratory was put into operation through the new automatic sub-station which was installed in the building. All of the time since the beginning of the vacation up to late last night has been spent in moving the 75-kilowatt direct current generator and panels from the old power plant to the laboratory and connecting the equipment with the automating current motor on the one side and the automatic sub-station on the other. The installation has been done as thesis work by A. B. Covey and Paul R. Dunkelberg, seniors in the department, under the supervision of James Carvalho and Harold Anderson, instructor.
The automatic substation is an absolutely new feature at the University and is a piece of equipment possessed by few if any other universities in the country, according to Professor Neumann. It has recently come into prominence in the large electrical plants of the United States because of its powerful motor. Through the pressing of a single button the current is put into
operation in proper sequence, thus saving the labor of at least two men. The sub-station costs two or three meals and requires only occasional inspection.
The automatic sub-station will be used here chiefly for its educational value. The installation has already served as thesis work and it will now be used for demonstrations and as a subject for technical reports.

Industrial Change Is Necessary to Give People Bread
British Labor Party Focuse Unrest and Discontent of Laboring and Middle Classes
"The capitalistic system in England and in Europe is failing to produce bread and movies for the masses of the people, and when a system cannot do that for the people, some change must be made," said Kenneth Lindsay of the foreign police of the British Library, last night in Little Theater.
Mr. Lindsay is an Oxford graduate and a native of Glasgow, Scotland He is touring the country on a fellowship of the Workers Education Bureau of America discussing the growth and aims of the British Labor party.
"The British Labor party is a focus of the interest and discontent of labor and the middle classes. Bringing this discontent to parliament is the most important thing that has happened to England in this century, but it has been getting a hearing in Parliament has prevented a revolution in the country.
"The entrance of the Labor party represents a real division in party policies. Liberal and Conservative parties have differing questions of property is at the root of the difference. Labor stands for a wider distribution of property and the operation of industry for the benevolent whole people rather than for profit.
Entrance Shows Division
"I do not believe in Youth movements." "There is no such tendency in England, but rather, the expression of youth is found on the idealism of the Labor party. This party does believe in internationalism, but we realize that such a system cannot be built up on the old methods of intrigue and secret diplomacy. Some associate institutions of settling disputes between nations.
Believes in League of Nations
"This is one reason why I still believe in a League of Nations; in fact, even Eneml's end still believes in it. It is a source of dismay to us and to those on the continent to see America staying gloof. America is lodged on as a Quaker unite to humanity, but it would be better for her to aid progress than to stand by and patch up the damage."
"England is a vast workshop o' experiments, and out of this a movement to typify the times will arise When you have miners working in a good veil willing to pool their wages with those working in thinner lodes an idea of what is coming on may be gained. This is a big step forward
