Ellison of Oregon State college in a pub lic forum in the Bush school audi torium Friday, December 13, at 8 p. m., under the auspices of the Mothers and Dads club of the Bush school district. Dr. Ellison is professor of his tory at the college. He was in France when war was declared in September, 1939, doing research in the history of Pacific affairs under a grant giren by the Rocke feller foundation. His arrival, in Europe during the summer of 1939 enabled him to watch derelopments immedi ately preceding war and to ob serve public reactions in both England and France after the conflict had begun. He was especially impressed by the general complacency with which the democratic nations ap proached the war during its early stages, and believes that the Unit ed States has much to learn from the factors contributing to the downfall of France. Arrangements for the torum have been under the direction of a committee?-a"ppolnted by the Mothers aivdpads club of Bush school. The committee members are Earle H. Riggs, Mrs. Eddie Armstrong, Mrs. N. D. Clement, Kenneth Conover and Mrs. Bear- nice Skeen.
