Smith and Richard Ost- wald, seniors in the department of mechanical engineering, will read papers before a meeting of the representatives of nine midwestcvn. engineering colleges composing the north central association of the student branch of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers, The north central meeting will be held in St. Louis on May 5 and 6. Smith's and Ostwald's papers, which will be read at the north central meeting were recently se lected as the two best papers pre sented before the local student branch this year. Smith's p.inei Is entitled "Constituents and rh,s lscal Properties Produced by Two Methods of Heat Treating StceR" the fact that Phil Soutliwick, FBK, Sigma Xi, and Thi Psi received a down slip this six weeKs in tennis... and that Sig Ep Howard "Hungry" Liston has the first case of hay fever, since some of his brothers came from a picnic and returned to him the blanket they borrowed from him... and also, we'd sorta' like to know where the Sigma Nu pin of Dick Ryan has been the last few days the kids are whispering "Marie Anderson, Theta," but we'd certainly hate to be quoted. . .and something new in combinations is that of AXiD Barbara Rosewater and Phi Delt Frank Burdell who'll bn at the Triad together .. .and we suspect that Gamma Phi Peggy West pre fers Iowa State for she went there last week to be at their prom with Bob Radcliff, Phi Gam .and so go the little items while you are all centering your attentions on song practices, un- pressed white suits, political bets for tomorrow, and a day less of classes . . . Pre-medsplan Omaha trip 75 to attend celebration on NU medical campus About 75 pre-med students from Lincoln are expected to attend the annual Pre-Meric day Saturday, May 6, on the Omaha campus of the college of medicine. All reg ularly registered third year pre medics of the class of 1939-40 are invited to be the guests of the medical college. Registration begins in Omaha at 8 a. m. Saturday. Medical frater nities will hold open house and serve refreshments. Tours will be organized and guides will conduct them thru laboratories, clinics and the hospital. 'At least two opera tions are customarily performed for the visitors. Only third year pre-med stu dents are eligible to attend Prc Medic day from Lincoln. Those interested in attending must secure cards from Dr. Otis Wade, pre-med advisor. Identification cards are required. Interstate tariff barriers i : c : dangerous, scares penning it. If ' The United States is In real danger of disintegration unless In dividual states discontinue erecting trade barriers against each other, Dr. J. P. Senning, chairman of the department of Political Science declarrd yesterday. "Look at Europe each state interested only in itself, with no consideration of others. The situ ation in America is analogous. These barriers and prohibitions are creating animosity and becom ing a real menace to unity." "The barriers are increasing constantly," Dr. Senning com mented. "There are more than a 100 now. Last summer crossing into Canada from the United States I was detained for a short time. It took me much longer to get into California from Oregon than it did to cross thi Canadian line and then re-enter the states again. There are laws against bugs, people, and plants from the other states," Dr. Senning re marked with a slight twinkle in his eye. He "considers the problem a chal lenging one however. "In the first place, the states have no author ity to erect these barriers the federal constitution forbids states persist in so doing, another job will fall upon the federal gov ernmentthat of seeing that 48 states do not establish discrimina tory laws." When asked what might bo done to rectify the situation, Dr. Senning shook his head slowly. "It is a problem, because people aro inherently selfish. If individual states insist on establishing such barriers, the federal government will have to step in. That means more money, which in turn means more taxes on the people. Live and let live is the best policy for each state,'" concluded Dr. Senning with a slight shrug and smile. Chorus specialty slated for dance today at 5 At the weekly matinee dance which is held in the Union at 5:00 each Wednesday, a group of ag college students advertising the Farmers Fair will give a dance specialty for those who attend the matinee dance.

II J Down to the sea in Ford ships go millions of tons of shipping. The Ford docks berth one of the largest industrial fleets in the world. There are 29 Ford ships in including seven seagoing craft, the two largest motorships on the Great Lakes, barges, tugs and canal boats. They are kept busy bringing raw materials to Ford plants, or carrying parts or assembled cars outward-bound. Ford production methods eliminate all extra handling cr storage of material and parts. Waste motion is waste money. Useless storage takes time, space, and ties up capital. So, parts anr! materials flow in a steady, unstopping stream to and from the great Ford plant on the River Kongo. Iron ore much of it dug from Ford mines and eel from Ford mines come to the Kouge in Ford ships. I. 8. F.ul Indian mi LtU Or mix ol tk Tmi fM Ore that reaches the plant Monday morning may emerge about 28 hours later or Tuesday noon as part of a finished car. In its progress from earth to automobile it has been constantly under way and under con trol. There is no guesswork. Ford efficiency begins at the begin ning. In the end, the sum of these savings is passed alo::j to buyers of Ford cars and trucks in the form of lower price and higher value.
