Nation’s Plight Laid To China By Brockman Orient Has Not Maintained Pace, Says Speaker Students Hear YMCA Authority On Some Problems of Far East Where You May Hear Dr. Brockman Wednesday— 8:00 a. m.—101 Condon hall.

Conclusion of se ries of evening meetings. “There would have been no need for this depression,” Dr. Fletcher Brockman said last night when he addressed a meeting of students in Gerlinger hall, “if China had been allowed to develop, on friendly terms with other nations, as swift ly as did Japan until ten years ago.” Such development, he said, would have meant that every sur plus of manufactured and agricul tural product in this country would have found market in China. ur. .Brockman, who is visiting the campus at the invitation of the Y. M. C. A. and the Y. W. C. A., lived for 30 years in China, and is thoroughly familiar with conditions and trends there. In his tliree-day visit he wishes to bring to students more than a con sciousness of the Orient, but a grasp of the problem of our future relations with the Far East. He spent most of the hour Tues day night opening the subject which will be under discussion in the succeeding meetings. The so cial, economic, and political back grounds of Japan and China were presented, and a definition of the issues in the Pacific basis given as embracing the whole nature of civilization there; Is it to become communistic or militaristic polit ically, and what will dominate its relations with other nations. Those who would desire to have personal interviews with Dr. Brockman may make appoint ments by calling Mrs. Margaret Norton at the Y. W. C. A. or Mr. Eugene Stromberg at the Y. M. C. A. The meetings announced in his program above are open to ev eryone.

ROOSEVELT PRESIDENT (Continued from Page One) The White House itself is an old story both to the new president and to Mrs. Roosev.elt. They knew it long ago, when she, herself a Roosevelt, was favored among nieces of the late President Roose velt, and later when they came to Washington to live for nearly eight years during the Wilson ad ministration. Was Assistant Secretary Franklin Roosevelt’s office as assistant naval secretary was then just across the narrow strip of West Executive avenue, in the old War, State, Navy building, perhaps 200 yards from the room where he is now to sit as presi-1 dent. It can hardly be doubted that Mr. Roosevelt in those days was observingly conscious that he was himself a humble factor in a care ful process of integration of con flicting party interests and per sonalities with which President I Wilson began his term. For Mr. Wilson built into his cabinet and ‘‘Little Cabinet" slate not only a reflection of the broad outlines of his own political phi lospohy and economic concep tions; but an inter-relationship of factions and groups within the Democratic majorities in house PHONE 18e0 for smart—individual [ hair-dressing.

I and senate designed to facilitate a party legislative program. His Efforts Succeed The success of his effort was attested by the legislative product of those first Wilson years, be fore the world war intervened to divert the course of peace time developments. Young Roosevelt saw all that. As state legislator and member of the “little cabinet,” he was an apt student of practical politics. His own primary and election campaigns this year won him a reputation for political adroitness and understanding among politi cal observers. And as president elect and president he will be called upon to exercise those qual ities to the highest degree. The first test will come in se lection of his cabinet. To aid him as he sifts the personal and po litical qualifications of those to whom he may offer portfolios, Franklin Roosevelt will have in timate memories of his first offi cial years in Washington, just 20 years ago.
