An attack of influenza complicated by intestinal inflammation was reported to have left Dowager ’ Queen Marie of Rumania in serious condition and partly paralyzed. She was stricken while at her

successor. Conscious of 'ho great responsibility thus involved, the board will ask tor conferences with alumni who have the interests of the University at heart and whose attainments are suc h that their recommendations are entitled to weight; such for example, as president Lutus 1). Coffman of the University of Minnesota; Dr. Walter Jeesup, president of the Carnegie foundation for the advancement of teaching.” Under Dr. Bryan’s administration the university has grown from 1.334 students in 1902 to 6,930 students during the last year plus 5,647 others who take extension courses. It has been estimated that 100,000 persons have studied at the University during Dr. Bryan's regime. Noted as a liberal thinker and advocate of the widest possible facilities for learning, Dr. Bryan during his administration enlarged the curriculum to include schools and departments of education, medicine, juornalism, physiology, anatomy, philology, music, bus inass administration, extension division, nurses’ training an ( ] dentisttry. He established at Indiana the second psychological laboratory in the United States where he studied the processes of learning. Dr. Bryan, a native Hoosier, was born three miles eaet of Blooming ton, Nov. 11, 1860. He worked hits way through Indiana University, graduating with honors in 1884 after also winning hie letter on the baseball team. His interest in athletics never han declined and he encouraged them at the University in later years. After graduation Dr- Bryan joined the University staff as an instructor in ,Gre?k. travelling thereafter to study in Berlin, Paris and Wurzburg. He became head of the psychology department in 1887, vice president of the University in 1893 and president in 1902. Dr. Bryan also gained some fame as an author, the beet known of his books being “Plato the teacher;” "The Republic of Plato;” “selections from Plato;” and “The Spirit of Indiana;” He was a frequent contributor to encyclopedias and learned periodicals and has received numerous honorary degrees. NEW HITLER ATTACK .’OVTIWI’k’D FROM PAGW buddy .Fiuiello LaGuardia. The mayor went to the platform and spoke briefly. “The hour is late and you've heard some great addresses," he said "You kept asking for me to come up to the microphone, but 1 11 say that when 1 speak about oppression and injustice, 1 don't need any amplification.” He had tried to speah from his box but without a microphone he could not make himself heard ‘That spcotii of mine a few days ago." he continued, 'is no novelty. I’ve been saying Hie same thing for a long time, and I expect to say it. 1 come here as one of the audience and Ruiybe there tire people who don’t understand how that can happen in a Democratic country. I simply want to say one thing and I wonder what the protest about this wil Ibe. Do not worry about what Mr. Hitler may say. Pay no attention Io him because i public opinion of the world has di creed that Adolf Hitler is not I iieraotmiiy or diplomatically ’satis i faktkmsfaehig.' " LaGuardia’s previous speech, which caused the diplomatic proI test from Berlin, was made before i an uiganizalion of Jewish women.

FOUR DETROIT HOTELS CLOSE Strikes Cause Closing Os I Four Leading Detroit Hotels Detroit, Mar. 16.—<U.R>— Detroit's ; I four largest hotels closed their 1 doors, notified approximately 2,550 ' guests that service would be dis- ; continued, and locked but their 1 employes today in a sudden count- ' er move against workers who had ' started a sit-down strike. William Walker, president of the ! hotel association, announced that guests in the Book-Cadillac, the , Fort Shelby, the Detroit Leland, I and the Statler probably would be ' advised to leave. The day shift workers, arriving at hotel entrances to relieve night i employes at 7 a. m., were met by lM>llce and house detectives and prevented from entering. Night shift employes at the Fort ■ Shelby left peacefully, but at the Book Cadillac about 135 workers sat down in the Book casino, a fashionable night club and dining | room connected wtih the hotel. Noriqauy, the hotels employ the following: Book-Cadillac, 875; Fort Shelby, 350; Statler, 340; and the | Detroit Leland, 375. The dramatic shutdown came as- ; ter a night-long conference be-1 tween Mayor Frank Couzens, the * four hotel managers, and officials of the waiters and witresses association. The conference had been called to seek a settlement of a sit-down strike of Statler employes that had disrupted service to 700 guests, including Lily Pons, opera and movie star, and 40 members of the D’Oyly Carte Opera company. Most of the guests in the BookCadillac, Fort Shelby, and Detroit Leland were unaware of the swift developments. They had retired last night, confident that the union would not carry out its threat to ' extend the Statler sit-down. But at 3:40 a. in. CST, Walker announced that the conferences' had failed to produce an agreement and that the hotels would be closed. "We will close them unless the union beats us to it,” he said. Ten minutes later desk clerks at the Fort Shelby were telling incoming guests that they could not be registered. The Book-Cadillac and Detr< . Leland adopted sim- . ilar tactics before dawn. Louis Koenig, business manager j

'of the waiters and witresses union, launched a counter move against the hotel executive*. By telephone and messenger, he *ent word to night shift employes in the four hotels to remain at their posts until members of the day shift arrived. He characterized the shutdown a "lock-out." Police guards were stationed at the entrances of all the hotels. No oen was permitted inside. Telephone and elevator service was continued on a skeleton basis, but guests awoke to find themselves without other service. Largest of the closed hotels was the 2»-story Book-Cadillac, which has 1,200 rooms. Approximately 700 guests are registered. The Fort Shelby has 21 stories, 900 rooms and about 700 guests. The Detroit Leland has 700 rooms, 450 guests and 21 stories, and the Statler has 15 stories, 953 rooms and 700 guests. Guests at the Statler had experienced the greatest discomfort. The sit-down strike, which began shortly after 5 p. m. yesterlTay, disrupted telephone, elevator, and, restaurant service and forced many
