Dahlberg Announces Public Discussions Program for Men, Women's Groups To Be Drawn Up Tonight at Meeting; Two Hours Credit Per Term Given W. A. Dahlberg, assistant pro fessor of speech, announced the origination of the public discussion program for both men and wom en's groups which will meet to night at 7:30 in room 107 Friendly hall. Since the symposium is an important speech department ac tivity of the fall term, Mr. Dahl berg urges all interested to attend tonight’s meeting. Freshmen are especially welcome. The program's nature concerns questions of current interest such as propaganda, education, distribu tion, position of the U. S. in world affairs, plus other materials to be selected. Participating members assemble at some hour consistent with their regular course of study during which time the issues are discussed and exchange informa tion which they have uncovered. Following these discussions the data is assembled and worked into speeches. Members Will Speak After each member is familiar with the topic and has it in speech form he is sent out into the state to speak before interested audi ences. The value of the work lies in the opportunity given for scien tific approach to controversial is sues, in opportunity to speak be fore realistic audiences who have an immediate interest in the prob lems discussed, and finally in test ing the methods of effective speak ing out in the world of affairs. Last year 35 men and women students participated in this ac tivity. They visited approximately 65 communities, spoke before 100 audiences, and had a good time in the process. Men who are interested see Mr. W. A. Dahlberg, director of men’s public discussion, while the women should contact Mr. Donald Hargis, director of women’s public discus sion. Two hours of credit are given for one year’s participation.

Russia's latest move came over the wire last night in a formal an nouncement of complete agree ment with Hitler’s peace offensive in Poland. Stalin backed up his statement by declaring Hungary in on the deal, which gives the Ger man dictator a stacked deal in the oentral European diplomatic game. Russian troops are reported to be marching farther into Esthonia. BERLIN , . . Herr Hitler's own newspaper told the world recently diat Italy as well as Soviet Russia would play the big brother in Ger- j many's game of “beating up little kids,” if the allied powers refuse :he German paperhanger's bid for peace in Poland. Observers are in iccord that the once doubtful axis s in action again, as German and Italy appear to be in perfect agree ment. N ATION AL . . . President Roosevelt's proposed ihanges in the neutrality act took t on the chin recently when Sen itor Borah told the senate and a irowded gallery that repeal of the :mbargo on arms and ammunition -o warring countries would lead us nto war. The popular Idahoan made one of the most appealing ind convincing speeches of his ca reer. The senate will vote this after noon on repeal of neutrality act, ifter attempts by the opposition to nave the bill held over. This latest move was an effort by a demo iratic minority to have a recess of rongress, during which President Ftoosevelt could dicker with the lictators. INTERNATIONAL . . , With Hitler steadily bringing the whole gang over on his side, most if us wonder what the allies are ioing about it, and why has there not been any action so far. Where s the British army? None of us want a war but it is something like irriving at a show three hours larly. LONDON . . .
