Professors Wife USurps Power in Glass Room and Fires Students

Ithaca, N. Y, Oct, 26.-Prof. and Mrs. Alfred E. zimmern were con- ducting Prof, Zimmern's class of Cornell university undergraduates through the study of the Near East ern question.
 Every day found Mrs zimmern seated at her husbands side, calmly knitting except when she felt the students needed her participation in the proceedings. Then she partici- pated, and the students murmured.
 One day Prof. and Mrs. Zimmern gave a quiz on Near Eastern geog- raphy. The class did not do so we'll So Mrs. Zimmern dropped so per cent of them from the course as being intellectually unqualified The mur- mur grew to Q roar and the roar has spread all over the campus.
 Debate is spirited on the propriety of Mrs. Zimmerns presence in the class room and her assumption of control. The expelled students most vociferously maintain the place of faculty wives is in the home. Others insist the true he1pmate should fol- low her husband to the fount of knowledge.
 Prof. Zimmern occupies the chair of international politics at the Uni versity of Wales and is regarded as one of the leading British educators in his field. He is teaching at Cor ne11 for this year only
 Mrs. Zimmern, a French woman, is also a university lecturer, She is credited with having described the ignorance as abysmal, especially of European geography.

NEW TREATMENT
 FOR DEAF MUTES Will Use X-Ray, Violet Ray and
 High Frequency

Malone, N. Y., Oct 26.-The Northern New York Institution for treatment of the deaf according to the method of New York specialist. This method employs the N-ray, the violet ray and sinusoidal, or high frequency machine
 The Nadine institution is the first in America to adopt this treatment. It has been led to this step by ob- taining good results from experiments with other and cruder electrical de- vices. In these cases the ear drum and muscles about it have been exer- cised by the use of a tiny air pump, which alternately forces the air into the ear and sucks 1t out again.

DETROIT.
Detroit, Aug. 11.-Whether the
fear of eventual power and freight
curtaliment or because new orders
still are coming in large volume,
many industrial plants here are
running at feverish speed while
others have laid off men due to the
railroads inability to transport
freight. There is no denying that
the peak of automobile manufac-
turing has passed, yet the recent
price reductions have given the in
dustry a nev- impetus. Unless the
strikes interfere more seriously
than they have up to the present,
a sort OF secondary peak is looked
for this fall.
Meantime there is everywhere an
evidence of more cautious contract
ing for future supplies. Some con-
Germs, notably foundries, have shut
down temporarily because OF the
high cost of coal. Others, with
their own power generating plants,
have switched over to the Edison
=, supply. Steam Goa which sold at
contract at last spring for $1.z5 a
ton at the mine, now is being Of
! fered at $3.50 the ton. Many manu-
| facturers. though, figure it better
to close down than to pay such
prices. The paper mills here are
particularly affected in this re-
spect.
1t is reported here today that a
number OF striking union miners
who have been working in the au-
tomobile plants are makir-- plans
