Reception Plans Near Completion Program To Offer Chance For Students To View-Foreign Customs Plans for an “International Reception” are now nearing completion, states Philip Ahn. chairman of the international relations committee. The reception, which will be of an all-university nature, will take place in the social hall of the Student Union this week. Ahn says there will probably be no set program so as to allow students a better opportunity to mingle and form acquaintanceships. An important function of the affair will be to foster fuller knowledge of customs in foreign countries. It was especially stressed that the reception will not be confined to students. but that instructors will be invited. Committeemen working on the proposed affair include Dave Mohr, president of associated students of the Los Angeles University of International Relations; Sophia Ro-goski, president of the International Relations club: and Ruth Frankel. president of the Cosmopolitan rVjb.

Assertions Hit Observations of the commission were published at a time when progress of the new deal’s chief power experiment—the TVA — had been sharply impeded by court reversals. The report strikes smartly at assertions of anti-new dealers that private industry now is generating more power than can be consumed and that federal activities in this directly constitute a waste of taxpayers’ money. The demand for power, when the depression ends. wiU be at least 4.000.000 kUowatts in excess of that which existed in 1929 or an amount equivalent to the capacity of 60 large generating stations, it was stated. Little new generating capacity has been constructed by privately owned utilities since 1930. As result, the report said, the capacity of existing plants as 2,325.000 kilowatts less than the contemplated demand when industrial activity returns to normal. Probable Shortages As a result of this situation, the report continued, critical shortages will exist in almost every section of the United States. The only regions in which substantial surpluses of capacity now exist were said to be Florida, parts of Michigan, Illinois, Texas, an area along the lower Mississippi, and North Dako- Tne statesmen emphatically denied that either Russia or Britain desired to form a ring of armed nations around any power—an obvious reference to Germany. Instead, the atmosphere was clarified on their policies regarding the Reich, both reiterating a hope that Adolf Hitler would enter the projected security pact with Russia and Poland, together with the Baltic states. Outline Proposals Their communique stated that Eden and Litvinov conferred on the eastern pact and other issues contained in the Anglo-French communique of Feb. 3. outlining a series of peace proposals which are the basis of the British government’s peace missions to various continental capitals. Eden’s next stop is Warsaw to- given to the states, which are expected to cooperate with the federal government by administering the bill. The house committee eliminated a provision under which persons earning more than $3,000 a year would be eligible to purchase annuities *a Idaho. Utah. New Mexico Mon- from the federal government Under the bill the federal government proposes to inaugurate old age insurance by starting out with an appropriation of $50,000,000 for the first year the law is in effect. After that the annual appropriation is raised to $125,000,000. Government Will Win The theory is that actuaUy the federal government wiU not lose that money, but will regain it through the tax system imposed by the bill. That starts out by requiring each employe to pay one per tana, Washington, Minnesota and Oregon. In certain limited areas the report said, government plans provided for, or actually under con- Election Board Requests Voting Lists Commissioners of elections in the various departments, schools, and colleges of the university are warned by Pink Jones, elecUons commossioner, that registration lists of eligible voters from each school must be turned in to him not later than Friday, May 1. Unless all lists are in his hands, complete, by that date, the schools or coUeges not so listed will be unable to vote in the coming student body elections, according to the warning voiced by Jones. AU that is required is a list of names of those entitled to vote, placed on the left hand margin of the paper.

Nine cash That the scholarship average oi fraternity men is considerably tower than that ot non-organization men at the University of Southern California during the last semester was revealed in a report issued Friday afternoon by Dr. Francis M Bacon, counselor of men. According to the report, members of social fraternities made a cumulative grade average of 1.046, while non-fraternity men had an averags of 1.245 for the corresponding period. The aU-men’s grade point average, based upon the work of 1900 men enroUed in the university, was 1.167. These grades represent only undergraduates and does not in-elude students enroUed in law, medicine, or dentistry. Dr. Bacon’s survey shows further that seven fraternities out oi 20 were placed on scholastic probation for the duration oi the present semester and that pledge groups in ten houses had made a cumulative average of less than required “C” medium. The 437 fraternity active* had a scholastic average of 1.100, whUe the 307 pledges made an average of .957. Although complete records are not avaUable as yet, the averages for the past semester are lower than for those of the corresponding semester last year.

Reception Plans Near Completion
Program To Offer Chance For Students To View-Foreign Customs
Plans for an “International Reception” are now nearing completion, states Philip Ahn. chairman of the international relations committee. The reception, which will be of an all-university nature, will take place in the social hall of the Student Union this week.
Ahn says there will probably be no set program so as to allow students a better opportunity to mingle and form acquaintanceships. An important function of the affair will be to foster fuller knowledge of customs in foreign countries. It was especially stressed that the reception will not be confined to students. but that instructors will be invited.
Committeemen working on the proposed affair include Dave Mohr, president of associated students of the Los Angeles University of International Relations; Sophia Ro-goski, president of the International Relations club: and Ruth Frankel. president of the Cosmopolitan rVjb.
Other committee members t ,re: Mary Susan Brown, vice-presfeent of associated students of th«’c Los Angeles University of Intemaieonal Relations; Ed Jones, presidsnt of the Interfraternity council; U Pete Cavaney, president of the Knights; Hans Poppe, president of the German club; Jimmie Guston, treasurer of the Cosmopolitan club; Harry Led del, assistant yell king, Pierre Gill;iTakishi Haruki, chairman of international relations for _the Y.

Assertions Hit
Observations of the commission were published at a time when progress of the new deal’s chief power experiment—the TVA — had been sharply impeded by court reversals. The report strikes smartly at assertions of anti-new dealers that private industry now is generating more power than can be consumed and that federal activities in this directly constitute a waste of taxpayers’ money.
The demand for power, when the depression ends. wiU be at least 4.000.000 kUowatts in excess of that which existed in 1929 or an amount equivalent to the capacity of 60 large generating stations, it was stated. Little new generating capacity has been constructed by privately owned utilities since 1930. As result, the report said, the capacity of existing plants as 2,325.000 kilowatts less than the contemplated demand when industrial activity returns to normal.
Probable Shortages As a result of this situation, the report continued, critical shortages will exist in almost every section of the United States. The only regions in which substantial surpluses of capacity now exist were said to be Florida, parts of Michigan, Illinois, Texas, an area along the lower Mississippi, and North Dako-
Tne statesmen emphatically denied that either Russia or Britain desired to form a ring of armed nations around any power—an obvious reference to Germany. Instead, the atmosphere was clarified on their policies regarding the Reich, both reiterating a hope that Adolf Hitler would enter the projected security pact with Russia and Poland, together with the Baltic states.
Outline Proposals
Their communique stated that Eden and Litvinov conferred on the eastern pact and other issues contained in the Anglo-French communique of Feb. 3. outlining a series of peace proposals which are the basis of the British government’s peace missions to various continental capitals.
Eden’s next stop is Warsaw to-

from the federal government Under the bill the federal government proposes to inaugurate old age insurance by starting out with an appropriation of $50,000,000 for the first year the law is in effect. After that the annual appropriation is raised to $125,000,000.
Government Will Win The theory is that actuaUy the federal government wiU not lose that money, but will regain it through the tax system imposed by the bill. That starts out by requiring each employe to pay one per
