James Talks at Final Assembly
Discussing "American Ideals and International Problems,' Dean James A. Janies of Northwestern university, addressed an audience of more than 1,500 students at the final assembly of the first term here Tuesday morning.
After outlining the development of American policies in the western hemisphere, from the time of Monroe to that of Theodore Roosevelt, Dr. James described American influence at the present time, stressing the development of the League of Nations as an American ideal.
The league covenant,” Doctor James said, “has long been the football of journalists. That it can never be resurrected, as they say,
cannot believe. In spite of opposition, the league has accomplished great things. Its beneficial Influence was seen at the time of the assassination of the king of Jugoslavia. It succeeded in solving the problem of the Ruhr. It has accomplished much in putting down slavery and in controlling the spread of the drug traffic.
“There must be some way out of war," he declared. "Educators should help. They should give more information on international affairs and stress the friendly relations of nations.
“Exporters should be forced to label their shipments. Marines should never be used as debt collectors. We must have legislation calling for the conscription of wealth and property in time of war.
“President von KleinSmid," Doctor James said, “has set an example to other universities by his efforts to promote International peace ln the Pacific area.”

Art Students Show Creative Talent
By Jean Wilkerson
Art students are holding open house today for students who would like to see the jewelry, woven articles, pottery, modem designs, and other subjects of applied art which they have created during the summer.
"This is not an exhibit,’' stated A. C. Weatherhead, dean of the College of Archtecture and Fine Arts. “Many of the students are teachers and we have stressed method, technique, and design, rather than the finished product. As a result, most of the things were made small purposely to cover a wider range. But the results are here for anyone who cares to se* them. Throughout the courses the objective has been to oreate something beautiful ln design and useful besides.”
Of speolal interact are the beau-
tiful hand-made scarves and purses of original designs and color schemes, the first articles ever woven by students in the department.
Other displays Include block prints, creative industrial designs of rooms, furniture, etc., in a distinctly modern tone; jewelry of pounded silver and gems; pottery; glassware with sandblasted designs and pounded silver handles; woven cellophane mats; handcraft novelties of wood compositions, leather, and oopper; puppets; various types of books which oan be made by children of different agesi and miniature houses, castlee, and farms of papier mache. One tiny house is decorated with candy and ha* a graham cracker roof.
••Thi* It the moot
summer session in the history of the department," commented Dean Weatherhead. "Nearly 400 students have turned out an amazingly wide variety of art object*.”
Regarding the future of the department, the dean stated that the stress will be placed on new forms of designs for things which can be used. “This is a new age of new product* and prooesses and art work is becoming more and more smooth and modern. It Is the simple, direct, and bold object which catches the eye.
"There is an insistent demand for young people ln these creative fields of art,” he continued, "who have the cultural background of a university education and training ln the modern approach to design. Kitchen gadgets, teelphones. furniture, drape*—everything has to be designed/*
