Japan’s position in EasternAsia will be strengthened and shewill be able to hasten her programfor domination of ('hina and to im¬press upon all Asiatics her determin¬ation to make real her declarationthat Japan is to be the dominantforce in all the Far East. <2. The movement for an Anglo-•lapanese understanding with regardto mutual rights in China wdll bealiandoned;3. Britain will .seek a general un¬derstanding with the United States,particularly with regard to the Pa¬cific ocean and the. Orient whereBritain hopes for American supportin curbing Japanese expansion.1. Militarist domination of Jap¬anese life will be intensified and thecivilian groups supporting parlia¬mentary government again over¬shadowed as they were in the waveof intense nationalism which follow¬ed the Manchurian adventure of theJai)anese army.THE ABCs(Contributions to The ABCsivUl be accepted by the editor.) Mussolini SaysItaly Will NotAttack EnglandPARIS, Jan. 13—(UP)—PremierBenito Mussolini today sent person¬al assurance to Premier Pierre Lavalthat Italy will not attack Clteat Brit¬ain or quit the League of Nations,the United Press was informed.Italy’s ambassador to France, Vit-torj) Cerutti, returning to Paris to¬day after a w'eek in Rome, broughtconfirmation of II Duce’s two-foldpeace promise to Laval, which wasconveyed to Count Charles de Cham-brun, French Ambassador at Rome,last week.Mussolini’s promises were:1. Italy will not quit the League• of Nations even if further sanctionsare voted.2. A formal pledge that Italy willnot become an aggressor againstGreat Britain.Although II Duce’s pledges are notequivalent to Italo-Ethiopiart peaceovertures, observers believe theygreatly cleared the political atmo¬sphere over Europe, a week beforethe I.,eague council convenes at Gen¬eva to discuss possible extension ofsanctions against the Fascist state toinclude oil.Meanwhile, observers do not ex¬pect new peace initiatives from anyquarter at present as they believethe moment unpropitious, in thatI neither Italy nor Ethiopia has gain¬ed a sufficiently crushing militaryvictory.The Italian pledges should serveto les.sen tension on the continentand in the Mediterranean.

EditoriaDaily Maroon Finds ASUHas Real ValueWhat should a student’s attitudebe toward the new American Studentunion?Is the Union a combination ofplanks and policies that, traditional¬ly, have been scorned by the major¬ity of students, or is it a synthesisof the best of old ideas and the bestof new suggestions?It is clear that the answer to thefirst question depends upon the an¬swer to the second. If it can be dem-on.strated that the ASU is actuallya synthesis of the most acceptablepoints of view held by students gen¬erally, it of necessity follows thatthe attitude should be a favorableone; and this attitude should be fav¬orable even though the synthesis isnot ideally perfect, for it need notbe that and yet it will satisfy testsof its generality.The Daily Maroon is convinced thatthe program of the ASU is a goodsynthesis and that the group is de¬serving of the attention of all stu-ents.The real point, however, is notwhether the ASU offers anythingOABq iijAv 3A\.) ,/poo3„ JO iBoacomments and suggestions as to thatlater) but rather do the students careenough about the offerings of thegroup (education, academic free¬dom, peace, civil liberties) to activ-. ate themselves.

The surestthing to do is to encourage interna¬tional agencies like the League ofNations and at the same time carryon a certain amount of prepai’ednessin equipment and training.”To what extent this preparednessshould be, the former war-time mem¬ber of the Committee on educationand special training, from his suitein Burton court offered an opinionthat the present set-up of the Amer¬ican army was satisfactory andshould not be greatly decreased.Perry, small, friendly, yet more orless formal in appearance starts ananonymous foundation whose aim isto encourage greater student contactwith men of academic standing. To¬night he will lecture at 8:30 in Man-del hall on “Moral Athleticism—anAspect of the Puritan Code.” Thesubject, he expains, will deal with thestrength of Puritan ideals, values,ethics which were bred much thesame as an athlete develops muscles—even over muscular development.Student conferences from 3 to 5each afternoon and organizationmeetings with Perry may be arrangedwith Elizabeth Foreen, secretary toGeorge A.

TEMPLESOth and Drexel BoulevardSINGLE SEATS 50c (As the introductory article in aseries on the foreign students of theUniversity—who they are, where theycome from, and what they do andhave done—the Director of Interna¬tional House has written an articleespecially for The Daily Maroon ex¬plaining the role of InternationalHouse in assimilating these wander¬ers.)By ERNEST B. PRICEInternational Houses are uniqueinstitutions. There are but four ofthem, each the gift to a local com¬munity by the same donor, Mr. JohnD. Rockefeller, Junior. The one inNew York City, which was the first,is now in its thirteenth year; thatin Berkeley, California, in its sev¬enth; that in Chicago, in its fourth.La Maison Internationale in Paris,is only just being completed.Aside from the circumstances thateach of the four Houses was the giftof the same donor, and that theHouses have, in general, a commonpurpose, each is a distinct and sepa¬rate institution. The New YorkHouse was deeded to and is operat¬ed by a Board of Directors whollyindependent of any other institution;that at Berkeley is on the campus ofthe University of California and,while it has its own Board of Direc- ■tors, is closely affiliated with that ^institution, International House, |Chicago, as a piece of property, was ’deeded to the University of Chicago, 'but is administered by a separate ,Board of Governors appointed by ;the Board of Trustees of the Uni-!versity and responsible to it, and fa-1cilities are available to students notonly of the U. of C. but also of,any accredited institution of higher [learning in the Chicago area. LaMaison Internationale in Paris is an ;integral part of the University of jParis, a state institution. None of;the Houses is endowed, except forits land, building, and equipment; jeach is self-supporting. |The purpose of International |House, Chicago, as defined in its By-;Laws is:“.... for the purpose of pro¬viding educational facilities forstudents of different nationalitiesand races and of promoting under¬standing and good will among thestudents of different nationalitiesand races attending the Univ^^-sity of Chicago and other educa¬tional institutions in Chicago andvicinity.” jThis general purpose as thus ex- 1pressed is interpreted to imply athree-fold objective; first, that theHouse should be a place where stu¬dents in the Chicago area who careto do so may, without regard to na¬tionality, race, or creed, live togetherunder one roof, eat some of their meals together, work and play to¬gether, and thus, by ordinary day-to-day living, learn to know and un¬derstand each other as human be¬ings; second, that the House should,in the course of time, come to bethe meeting place for persons andgroups in an ever-widening area in¬terested in attacking, intelligentlyand sympathetically, some of thebasic problems of international andinterracial relationship, and becomethe center from which informationand understanding will disperse tooutside communities; and third, thatit should attact to it as visitors, ob¬servers, and contributors to its pro¬gram leaders nationally and inter¬nationally known for their contribu¬tions to the cause of a better inter¬national understanding.It is always hard to measure thedegree to which any undertakingdealing in intangible factors approx¬imates its objectives. In the case ofInternational House, Chicago, somestart has been made. Of the onehundred-eighty students from for¬eign countries who are known to beattending institutions of highereducation within living distance ofthe House, eighty live in the Houseand twenty more are non-residentmembers. Offsetting these and form¬ing a medium for the expression ofAmerican culture, there live in theHouse approximately 380 carefullyselected American students, nearlyall of whom are of Upper Division orgraduate level. Such a balance,while falling, perhaps, somewhatshort of the ideal, nevertheless isfairly satisfactory. It makes possiblethe carrying on of a program, large¬ly with student initiative, designedto balance comfortable living andrecreation with intellectual life.What is aimed for is not a feverishactivity, but the stimulation and de¬velopment of a natural and spon¬taneous interest in problems commonto the youth of all nations.The House is becoming, also, themeeting place for persons andDREXEL THEATRE868 E.

Groups organized on na¬tional, cultural, or purely intellectualbases, hold their meetings or havetheir headquarters here. Space doesnot permit an enumeration of suchorganizations, but it may be saidthat some, such as the Chinese Stu¬dents Association of North America,which was organized and has its head¬quarters in the House, are nationalor continental in scope. The onlycondition attached is that such or¬ganizations be educational in charac¬ter or objective, or specifically inter¬ested in the study of relations be¬tween nations, races, or cultures, andthat they be tolerant of all othernational, racial, or cultural groups.As time goes on, also, more andmore leaders in various fields of in¬ternational study or activity come tovisit International House. Againspace does not permit an enumera¬tion, but it may be said that, in thepast year, representatives of morethan a score of nationalities havebeen guests in the House. Most ofthese have generously given of theirtime to talk w’ith House members,those which are useless or dangerous. either as a group or individually, andit is hoped that each has carried awaysomething of a picture of what is be-ing attempted in International Housein the way of an experiment in thestudy and • working out of humanvalues.One thing more may be said in con¬clusion. Although InternationalHouse houses some 460 members andhas upwards of a hundred non-resi¬dent members, most of them do get toknow each other, naturally, and fair¬ly intimately. First names are used;color, race, and nationality are forgot¬ten; genuine friendships develop.

MORRISHip, hip—hurrah!Hip, hip—hurrah!Hip, hip—hurrah!While the plaster on the ceilingquavered hesitatingly, the old yell,familiar to English schoolboys fromtime immemorial, rang out with greatgusto in the home room of Interna¬tional House Sunday afternoon. Theyell marked the conclusion of whathad started out to be a staid recep¬tion in honor of forty visiting min¬ing engineering student sfrom SouthAfrica, but ended up as one of themost spontaneous outbursts in in¬ternational amity this campus hasever seen.The students, from Witwatersranduniversity in Johannesburg, SouthAfrica, were guests of InternationalHouse Sunday and yesterday, usingthe house as a center for a busyprogram of sight-seeing. Their tourwill take them to Los Angeles andSan Francisco, as well as to vari¬ous mining centers throughout theWest.The hot cider at the reception wasdefinitely beyond suspicion, but itwas not long before the enthusias¬tic lads began whooping it up inthree languages— English, Dutch,and Kaffir. While one of their num¬ber took over the piano, another,Bellasis by name, jumped on thebench and began to lead songs andcheers in a manner which resembleda compromise between the vocifera¬tions of a barn-dance caller and thegymnastic antics of a collegiate yell-leader.After a few songs in English, orrahther British, and Dutch, and anumber of native Kaffir yells whichpartook of the true aboriginal fer¬vor, the Americans took the floorwith “A Bicycle Built for Two,”“There Is a Tavern in the Town,”and others of their ilk. Then the en¬tire company found something incommon in “Tipperary,” and “Jin¬gle Bells,” ending up with arms in¬terlocked, swaying to the tune of“Auld Lang Syne.” gram, and prepare a report for thePresident.“The NRA had already died of itsown weight,” explained Stone. “Sucha monstrous machine, lacking defin¬ite objectives, policies, and setmethods of procedure could not longcontinue to function.”Four definite rules are necessaryto insure any large administrativeprogram; all of which, in Stone’sopinion, the NRA lacked. They are:1) The program must have sharp¬ly defined and consistent objectives.2) The program must have an in¬telligent understanding of the manyvariable functions with which itmust deal.3) The program must have acarefully defined policy and plan ofaction.4) The program must have a welldefined smooth system of administra¬tion.Letters tothe EditorWRONG IMPRESSIONSEditor, Daily MaroonDear Mr. Nicholson,Friday’s Daily Maroon story onthe first campus meeting of theAmerican Student union left thereader with two erroneous impres¬sions which ought to be correctedimmediately.First, the ASU supports measureswhich would make the ROTC op¬tional only “a« a step toward com¬plete abolition of militarism on thecampus.” This is the wording of theprogi’am adopted at our Columbusconvention. We do not consider op¬tional ROTC as a good-in-itself, asthe Maroon story inferred.Second, you state that “The partsof the (Columbus) program to be ac¬cepted (by the campus chapter) willbe the subject of the coming meet¬ing.” On this point allow me to pointout that every chapter of the ASUis pledged to the fulfillment of thetotal program. However, as statedon the applications for individualmembership, “The ASU welcomesinto its ranks anyone who wishes toact on one or all of the issues out¬lined in its program.”Quentin Ogren,ASU executive board.Ideal accommoda¬tions for studentsand faculty.HARVARD HOTEL“24-Hour Service”5714 Bfackstone Ave. French PoodlesLead Presidenton Campus Romp“They're gone,” shrieked the serv¬ants.“Ye Gods,” cried Hutchins tear¬ing out of office, down Harper cor¬ridors, out on the quadrangles fol¬lowed by a faithful blond secretary(Dorothy Adams, if you haven’tguessed it).Out upon ice and snow the racecontinued, Hutchins stopped, sur¬veyed the surrounding territory.“There they are,” he shouted andagain the race was on—’round andround Swift hall.
