ed and useful purpose. A committee was named to make further investigation concerning the possibility of

carrying out this plan.

It was decided also, to take care of scout hikes and over-night trips by accumulating certain permanent equipment in the way of tents and utensils to be kept under the auspices of the council.

DEPAUW CHAPEL

Speaking for the National Preaching Mission, Dr T. Z. Koo, student leader in China, uttered a plea for internationalism in the regular DePauw chapel Wednesday morning. Tracing its beginning from the world war, Dr. Koo expressed his confidence that our century will see the full development of internationalism just as the last century saw the growth and complete development of nationalism. “There is a great area of ignorance separating one country from another,” declared Dr. Koo. “This aiea of ignorance is the breeding ground of all sorts of misunderstandings and prevents internationalism. ‘We can trace many of our wars to this mutual misunderstanding and ignorance,” Dr. Koo continued. “We cannot understand things in other countries by means of our own background. We must learn how to put ourselves in the other man’s place and understand him in terms of his own background. “We must be able to see through our differences and feel our unity,” said Dr. Koo in conclusion. "Because we forget we are all really alike we sometimes are cruel to each other. We must realize that God has created us all with the same feelings and emotions. We all have the same heart.”

university communities. No definite action was taken pending a further recommendation from Mr. Wilson. The possibility of sending a representative to the annual meeting of Region 7 to be held in Milwaukee this weekend was discussed briefly with the decision being left in the hands of the chairman after he had an opportunity to make further in-

vestigation.

Mr. ETdington was present for the first time as a new council member and suggestions were made for extending the council membership still further. Plans for a court of honor were left in the hands of Mr. Smith and the two scoutmasters.

OPENS CAMPAIGN

(Continued From Page One) very day of March 4, 1933. . . . The previous national administration, T>ej wildered, did nothing. In their speeches, they deplored it, but by their actions they encouraged it. The injustices, the inequalities, the downright suffering out of which revolutions come — what did they do about these things? lacking courage, they evaded. Being selfish, they neglected. Being shortsighted, they ignored. “It is for that reason that our American form of government will continue to be safest in Democratic hands. The real, actual, undercover Republican leadership is the same as | it was four years ago. That leadership will never comprehend the need for a program of social justice and of regard for the well-being of the masses of our people.” Mr. Roosevelt seemed to many in the audience to he referring directly to his rival, Gov. Alf M. Landon, Republican presidential nominee, in the following passages: “Let me warn you and let me warn the nation against the smooth evasion which says, ‘Of course, we believe in all these things. We believe in social security; we believe in work for the unemployed; we believe in saving homes. Cross our hearts and hope to die, we believe in all these things; but we do not like the way the present administration is doing them—we will do them better, and, most important of all, the doing of them will not cost anybody any-

thing.’

“But, my friends, these evaders are banking too heavily on the shortness of our memories. No one will forget that they had their golden opportunity—twelve long years of it. . . . you cannot be an old guard Republican in the f ast, and a new deal Republican in the west. You cannot promise to repeal taxes before one audience and promise to spend more of the taxpayers money before an-
