The north central meeting will be

Smith's and Ostwald's papers,

the fact that Phil Soutliwick, FBK,

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.

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.

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.
