Ross Edits House Organ
Professor Discusses Business Management and Industry in Publication.
Thurston H. Ross, head of the College of Commerce department of business management, has published a house organ, “Administrative Balance in Industry,” which any student interested in business management may secure through Dean Reid L. McClung. Mr. Ross is vice-president and consulting engineer of Eberle Econo mic Service, Inc., with which organization he has consulted in compiling this information.
"Business and Industry have many ills, some of which are real but many ot them are imaginary,” begins Professor Ross in his discussion of commercial organization management. “The solutions to business and industrial ills are more readily found than the ills themselves because business concerns are so human, finding many ills due to continued self-examination.”
Mr. Ross continues to compare business with the human, citing its epidemics as analogous to reducing epidemics, literary fads and other habits.
“The individual can do best by regarding Temperance (Not referring to the Eighteenth Amendment) in all things and the exercise of ordinary common sense keeps a great many people out of the hospital and the grave. One of the principal ailments of the average business organization is its intemperance. Thus business lags and dies as we do.”
Specialist examinations, over-management, sales programs, and statistics are further discussed in the booklet. He closes with:
“Tbe average American business is not sick, but they need to put their houses in order to keep well. On the other hand, too much self-examination and its usually attendant self-treatment is most frequently the cause of unfortunate results."

Tardieu Is Awarded Vote of Confidence
Paris, March 5—(INS)—After more than two weeks of bitter political battling, Andre Tardieu, the indefatigable, tonight succeeded in overcoming; the vigorous opposition of the left group and establishing a new government for France.
Following a long, hectic day In the Chamber of Deputies, during which the Socialist and radical members engaged in one of the noisiest parliamentary battles in years, M. Tardieu received a vote of confidence, 316 to 263, and now is free to embark upon a solution of the nation's pressing problems.
When Tardieu this morning began reading the declaration of his ministry's policies the left deputies loosed all the noise at their disposal in an attempt to prevent him from finishing. The Premier remained calm througout the demonstration, however, and though his declaration required twice the time it should have, he got through it.

EDITOR GIVES TALK FOR COLLEGE POETS
Aspiring poets on the Trojan campus will have another opportunity this year to compete for the Witter Bynner undergraduate poetry prizs, according to an announcement sent to the English office.
Since 1922 Witter Bynner, assistant editor of “Palms,” the poetry magazine, has been awarding $150 to the winning poem written by an undergraduate student of any American college. Because the three judges of the 1929 contest disagreed in selecting the winner, the prize was divided among three poets, students the University of Chicago, Butler university and Mills College.

has failed to take Its rightful place among the winners of the contest," Doctor Cooke, professor of English language and literature, stated recently. “I am certain that this has not been a result of lack of talent on the campus. On the contrary,
It has been a lack of interest and a condition of Indifference.
S. C. HAS CHANCE “Students of U. C. L. A., Whittier college, Redlands university, and other southland institutions have shared laurels in the Inter-collegiate contest. This year Trojan students whose essays gain recognition wlll have an opportunity to prove that S. C. has both the material and the interest needed to be successful ln such a competition."
The first prize for the winning essay ot southern California is $45, the second is $30, and the third is $15. Each of three judges will choose a flrst, a second, and a third I place from the nine essays submit- j ted to them by various colleges of the southland. It is possible ln this way for one manuscript to receive three first places, an award of $135.

- To The Editor
Coma, Montana, March 5— (To the Editor of the Daily Trojan): Hypnotism as a practical art is gaining in popularity dally. This entrancing sport was discovered In the Stone age, when men were thick of neck and rough on etiquette. Accidentally one day, Mr. Musclebound found that by dropping a knobbed tree trunk gently but firmly on Mrs. Musclebound’s head, a static wave as well as a permanent w^.ve could be quickly produced which did away with all Interference.
Professor Mount, who ls a national authority on abnormal psychology, has demonstrated on various occasions the social value of hypnotism by giving post-suggestions to those in a trance before they are snapped out of it. For instance, Professor Mount may give a subject the post-suggestion that he will be a ripe banana upon waking, and sure enough the flrst thing that the subject does Is' to start peeling off his clothes upon becoming conscious.
The dry forces of this country would immortalize Professor Mount if he would hypnotize the wet members of Congress and glte them the post-suggestion that they be dried mackerels upon waking. And it wouldn’t be a bad idea if the entire S. C. student body were put under a trance while Professor Mount suggested that an education may be obtained at college.
Yours for national unconsciousness,
