tential promise of further Japanese
penetration into northern China.
She knows that if the promise is
fulfilled there will be more and
more border clashes, until Russian
nerves, rubbed raw, will revolt at
this stealthy steal of rich coal and
iron deposits. War! War, before
she is ready. Industrial gains yet
to be consolidated, the second Five
Year Plan to be completed, the
New Military Branch of the Trans
Siberian Railway still to be fin
ished. This is why Russia doesn't
want war. But will she be able to
avoid it? The answer will soon be
known.

Oregon City in 1846. On February
.6, the first paper west of the
Rockies was published. The second
was not established until more than
six month later in California.
The plant was bought in 1855 by
William L. Adams from C. L.
Goodrich, who owned it at that
time. Adams published the first
Oregon Argus on April 21. D. W.
Craig, the printer, later became
sole owner of the Argus and con
tinued its publication until October
24, 1863. It was then that the plant
was moved from Oregon City to
Salem for a merger with the Ore
gon Statesman.
In 1864, the elder Kincaid brought
the press to Eugene to publish the
Oregon State Jouranl. The first
issue of the weekly appeared on
March 12 of that year.

ROTC Question
Discussed by
Federation
Graduated Student Body
Card, Merit System in
Politics Proposed
Representing a successful at
tempt to bring the opposing fac
tions together, the Oregon Stu
dent federation discussed the pros
and cons of the optional compul
sory military question last night
at the first regular business meet
ing.
Although no definite stand was
decided upon, opinions and argu
ments presenting both sides of the
situation were exchanged. General
feeling after the meeting indicated
that the discussion had been very
successful.
A committee to present all ar
guments in the form of a brief,
and also to investigate the military
exemptions committee, was ap
pointed by President Paul Prank.
Robert and Don Thomas will rep
resent the compulsory view, and
John Luvaas and Kenneth Phil
lips the optional.
Questions Proposed
The program committee, headed
by Richard Halley, presented the
military question, possibility of a
graduated ASUO card, and pro
posal of a merit system in campus
political appointments, as meas
ures for discussion and action.
The graduated student body
membership, as presented by Hal
ley, and also by Kenneth Phillips,
member of the executive council,
would be a divided ticket. Students
would be allowed to buy as much
of it as they desired.
Committee Named
Upon a motion from the floor
Plank also appointed a committee
to gather information on the grad
uated plan for presentation at the
next meeting. David Lowry, first
vice-president of the federation,
will act as chairman. Other mem
bers of the committee are: Edith
Clark, Ralph Cathey, and Dan
Clark. James Blais, ASUO student
body president will act as an ad
visory member of the committee.
Phillips, in reporting the meet
ing of the executive council Thurs
day afternoon, said that considera
tion of a faculty adviser would be
made in the near future. Prof. W.
A. Dahlberg. Prof. Victor P. Mor
ris, and Prof. Waldo Schumacher
were suggested as possible advis
ers. They will be contacted by the
executive council, to determine
whether they will be willing to
serve.
The Student Federation also
went on record as supporting the
Emerald “Opinion Steering Com
mittee" created Wednesday eve
ning.

Dr. Taylor Complimented on
Scholarship Study
Dr. Howard Taylor, psychologist,
recently received a letter from Dr.
Harold E. Meyers commending him
for his recent study upon factors
which successfully predict scholar
ship in the University of Oregon
medical school.
Dr. Taylor spent several years
compiling this research and used
several hundred medical students’
records.
Dr. Taylor said of the study
that, while he realized successful
medical school scholarship wasn’t
a perfect guarantee of later pro
fessional competence and service,
students who best understood their
school work would probably make
the best physicians, since skill in
medical practice depends so heav
ily upon the application of special
ized knowledge and techniques ac
quired at school.
Dr. Taylor has made a study of
methods which are used to fore
cast scholarship in medical schools.
He found that estimates made by
medical school admissions commit
tee upon the records and qualifica
tions, of the candidate were found
to be nearly as accurate as the
grades. Scores from the medical
aptitude test provided a good
check against the estimation of
the committee and were found to
be of more significance than the
scores from the ACE psychologi
cal exam used alone. However,
partments of the University will
go to press today. It will contain
information concerning courses of
fered in nursing education by the
University of Oregon medical
school in Portland.
Present plans call for Miss Ruth
Wheelock to replace Miss Elnora
Thomson as director of the nurs
ing education school this summer
during the latter’s absence. Cours
es offered will consist of training
in pre-nursing, preparation for
public health nursing as well as
work for degrees.
scores from the psychology test
were discovered to be more indica
tive of medical school success than
were high school grades. The op
posite is true in the majority of
courses at the University of Ore
gon.
Dr. Taylor spent more than two
years compiling this research
which is composed of four separate
studies. Records of 423 students
were used in making this record.
“A study of this kind is particu
larly valuable as admission to
medical schools is limited and it is
important to select for training
those who will profit from it
most,” said Dr. Taylor.
