Smith Relates Possibilities In Philippines Talk Given at Pan Xenia Meeting Thursday Millions Constitute Market That Could Be Served in Manila, Said Speaker "Over 800,000,000 people consti lude the potential market that could be served from Manila," de clared Dr. Warren D. Smith of the geology department in his talk on the possibilities of the Philip pines in foreign trade at the Pan Xenia, foreign trade honorary, meeting Thursday night. "I have no doubt that under the right system we could make over $100,000,000 profit through these islands.” Dr. Smith went on to explain and enlarge upon the trade possibilities of commerce with the Philippines. Among the products he listed that could be shipped in much greater quantities to the United States were coffee, cocoa nuts, hemp, and tan bark. Enor mous quantities of rubber could be raised there. The climate is just right. All that is lacking is capital and enterprise. Sugar and tobacco could also be raised in tremendous amounts. "I think that Philippine cigars are the finest in the world,” commented Smith. "However their produc tion and that of sugar is being held back by selfish interests in Amer ica.” Philippine pineapples are among the largest in the world; slices have been known to be as big around as a large plate, he said. Oregon could send many prod ucts to the islands in return. Dairy products are especially in demand, milk costing about 50 cents a quart. Dr. Smith explained that large tankers importing cocoa nut oil to the Pacific coast could be cleaned here and sent back filled with milk. Grain, lumber, and fireproof roofing are also in great demand. “There are, however, a great many obstacles in the way of these great opportunities,” declared Smith. Among them he listed; un certainty of future status, lack of rapid steamship lines, race preju dice, and of large importance to the Pan Xenia, better foreign tradesmen. “Educated men who understand the fundamentals of trade with foreign countries and who know the needs of the people of the coun try are extremely lacking. It is such organizations as yours that will bring the greatest in history to the Pacific coast,” he remarked. Dr. Smith will conduct a series of five lectures in the C.C.C. camps of Oregon within a short time. ROSCOE C. NELSON TO SPEAK AT ASSEMBLY (Continued front Pacje One) but the chancellor’s office yester day had not been told what the subject of his talk would be. The 11 o’clock classes will be dismissed for the assembly. Willard L. Marks and Nelson were appointed to the state board by Governor Julius L. Meier after the resignations of C. L. Starr and C. C. Colt this fall. Soon after his appointment, Nelson became president of the board. As it is the duty of the board to oversee the entire Oregon sys tem of higher education, Nelson is planning to make visits to the other units of the system: Oregon normal, Monmouth; Southern Ore gon normal, Ashland; Eastern Oregon normal, La Grande; U. of O. medical school, Portland; and Oregon State college, Corvallis. Men Survey Campus To Obtain Gradations For Library Location Have you wondered why the men are measuring the cam pus? Two reasons! Two birds are being killed with one stone by G. W. Skelton, pro fessor of civil engineering at Corvallis. He is surveying the Oregon campus to determine grada tions and data for the proposed new library, and at the same time to gather information from which permanent maps of the campus shall be made. These maps, when completed, may be referred to for specific information and future build ing or landscaping may be car ried out without additional sur vey. The site for the new library, if built, will probably be in the vacant lot south of the art museum. LANGUAGE OF ENGLAND HAS APPEAL TO MORDEN (Continued from Page One) your papers; it is all propaganda. The German people are getting along fine.” One of the scouts who read Ger man noticed in the paper the next morning an article stating that there would be many parties of Americans through Germany that month on their way to Budapest so to treat them well and give them a good impression. The Germans did and the scouts had a very pleasant time there. “In Switzerland, the Alps ap peared quite colossal. But, to me, the Rockies are more interesting. The Alps are mere jagged peaks above the timber line,” states Mor den. Their principal industry is tourists. The party spent five days here; they did little except rest. Then they went through the length of Austria to Vienna, down the Danube to Budapest. At Buda pest they remained for two weeks attending the Scout jamboree held at one-hour’s ride from the city. The principal purpose of the jam boree was to exchange scouting ideas the world over and try to further promote world wide peace and brotherhood. Representing 37 different nations, there were 20, 000 boys here who used their own typical methods of camping to il lustrate their section of the coun try. The first Sunday in camp, 110, 000 people visited the jamboree. On an average day there were never less than 25,000 visitors. There were 400 American boys at the jamboree and they were quite a curiosity in central Europe .They proved to be more of a sensation than curiosity in their uniforms and red kerchiefs, which they wore all of the time, for this is the sign of communism in Europe. Dinner and dancing were the most popu lar entertainiments, where many colorful and beautiful costumes were seen. Morden asserts that one finds lack of knowledge of languages the greatest barrier in attempt ing to discuss topics. In Europe national feeling is so strong that if one is going to say anything, it must be a compliment to another country, so that nothing construc tive can be accomplished. “I learned that fellows are the same the world over.” On the return trip he visited Venice, Florence, Rome, and Na ples, then out through the Med iterranean to New York. Italy was one of the busiest countries in Europe. Under Mussolini’s pro gram they were excavating ruins, repairing buildings, and building streets. Morden spent several days in New York and Washington and saw the World’s fair at Chicago. | Libe Worker Talks to Class In Orientation Use of Card Catalogs and Indexes Explained Data Available in Collected Form To Students Interested In Any Subject Valuable suggestions on how to get the most out of the library were given Thursday at the week ly orientation lecture for fresh man women. Miss Lenore Casford, periodical librarian, explained the use of the many catalogs and in dexes provided by the library for the convenience of the students, and mentioned sources of mate rial for themes and term papers. A little-known department of the library is the periodical sec tion, where nearly 2,000 magazines and periodicals containing the last word on every subject may be found. These cannot be taken out of the library, but are on open shelves in the reading room. Stu dents may find information on any subject by looking in the card ex, which is an index of subjects and authors in recent publications, or in “Poole’s Index of English and American Magazines,” which con tains data on every magazine from 1802 to about 1900. Among other collections of data are the reader’s guide; the educa tional index, which deals solely with subjects pertaining to educa tion; the agricultural index; the industrial arts index; the interna tional guide and the newspaper in dexes. Some students, Miss Casford said, go through four years with out discovering that besides Con don libe and the old libe, there are four other libraries on the campus: the library in the museum at Ger linger, the law library in Oregon, the business library in Commerce, and the architectural library in the Art building. Miss Casford added that the stu dent who uses the library is the one most likely to get good grades. If the indexes fail to help, the li brary assistants will be glad to aid the students in finding their material. LAW PUBLICATION HAS WORK FROM STUDENTS (Continued from Page One) tides for the journal. Among those contributing are Ralph H. King, president of the Oregon State Bar; E. K. Oppenheimer, president of the Multnomah County Bar; Ir ving Rand and George Rossman, justices of the supreme court; and Federal Judge Alger Fee. “Due to the excellent coopera tion of students and faculty in keeping up with the latest deci sions and working together in the analysis of cases,” stated Profes sor Howard, “we have been able to edit a review which compares favorably with any on the conti nent.” He returned to Portland Septem ber 17. His conclusion, he explained is “What did it all mean in the end? Too much ground was covered in too little time. However, the trip was worth while, for it gave the boys an opportunity to realize con ditions elsewhere, and gave them an interest in international affairs that they could obtain in no other way.” Graduate in Washington Kenneth R. Wa,dleigh, Univer sity graduate in the class of ’28, who has since received his M. A. degree at the University of Wash ington, is now a field worker for the Washington State Welfare board.

The next meeting of this groui will come November 7. which comes Sunday to the Mac, really is John Barrymore and not the fliers as one might expect, says the critic in Time. The story concerns a trans-Andean air line in South America, and the teaser wonders whether the fliers or the wives and sweethearts who wait at home, are the heroes. Claudette Colbert, who has the title role in "Torch Singer," should put it over pretty well. Publicity informs us that Claudette really does sing. Songs are, "Don't Be a Crybaby," "It’s a Long, Dark Night,” "Give Me Liberty, or Give Me Love,” and another which ! Claudette doesn’t sing, “Mimi Was I a Good Girl.” My Man Story “I Love That Man.” which is I playing with “The Nuisance” at | the Colonial, is that story about a nice girl who falls for a confi dence man. When she finds it all out, does she leave him ? No, she smiles and sticks around. But the best thing is that she tricks him into being an honest and wealthy man It all ends up with an attempted bank robbery ’ and shooting. “The Nuisance” is good Lee Tracy stuff. He wise-cracks and talks thr ’.is nose, and smacks the girls' legs like a veteran. In this one he’s a shyster lawyer get ting even with what he terms “the soulless corporation.” Sunday the Colonial has Gloria ■ Swanson’s English-made picture, : “Perfect Understanding.” Her hus band, Michael Farmer, is in it. Story about a girl and fellow who • make an agreement to be inde ! pendent, though married. Complications could arise from such a situation. ■ “Patronize Emerald advertisers.” Always Quick Service VARSITY SERVICE STATION loth and Hilyard I A Good Photograph . . .

When these tobaccos are balanced one against the other, then you have a mild cigarette. When they are in balance, then you have a better-tasting cigarette. May we ask you to read again the statement on the back, of the Chesterfield package? May we ask you to try Chesterfield?
