Faculty To Hear Castillejo Today
“Does the Alliance of the Intel-ligentia and Labor Lead to Democracy or Dictatorship?" will be Dr. Jose Castillejo’s topic when he addresses members of the Faculty club today at 12:30 in Elisabeth von KleinSmid hall.

main line pipes, disturbed by the recent floods, are admitting waste into the water supply. In an effort to counteract the danger, extra amounts of chlorine are being pumped into the reservoirs and pipes of the city.
Officials minimized the danger to the city, saying that in laboratory tests no typhus germs had been found, but that the water, while not actually deadly, was dangerous for human consumption and should not be drunk.
DEBRIS HINDERS WORK
“Efforts to find the broken pipes and to replace them wlll be hindered by the debris and wreckage swept by the recent floods,” officials said, “but repair crews now searching for the injury are doing all in their power to fyid and fix the break. Conditions in the San Fernando valley, though somewhat worse than in other areas, are not at the moment dangerous If the usual precautions in regard to drinking water are followed.”
Nearby communities which have suffered from the flood waters and that might have had their water mains contaminated or broken were warned to take the same precaution as to boiling water as Los Angeles until a thorough check of the mains can be made.
If the situation is not bettered soon faucets and fountains in public places will be shut off or sealed, the health department announced.

Presented to convince the listener that much of Bach’s music is simple and easily understandable, this afternoon's Listening Hour features casual pieces from that master’s works. Postponed from last week, this all-Bach program will be heard at 2:30 p.m. in Bovard auditorium.
Program notes will be available for those interested in attending, says Prof. Pauline Alderman, chairman of the Listening Hour. Since the inception of Miss Alderman’s column “Informing the Listener” in the Daily Trojan this year, copies of this article are presented to those who come each week to hear recordings of the masters.
Usually the program matter is selected from works of several composers, but because of the great interest in the casual instrumental music of Bach, today’s entire program is devoted to it. Numbers include the Prelude from Suite for Lute, “Aliemande” from E Minor Suite for Lutencembalo, Concerto for Four Klaviers and String Orchestra, and the Organ Prelude and Fugue in E Minor.
The first number was written for the lute, which has fallen from the popular position which it held during the middle ages. The Prelude from Suite for Lute was resurrected by Andreas Segovia, a great concert artist whose medium is the Spanish guitar.
Many have taken exception to arrangements of Bach's works b> mch musicians as Stokowski and Schoenberg. They should realize, however, that Bach himself made arrangements of the works of other composers. Also Bach himself would have been the first to take advantage of the modern orchestral devices which make his music so rich today.
Former President Herbert Hoover, friends declared, did not denounce Fascism during his meeting with Reichsfuehrer Adolf Hitler yesterday.

Ex-President Refuses To Reveal Subject Oi Hour's Discussion
BERLIN, March 8 —(IIP)— Former President Herbert Hocver chatted with Adolf Hitler for nearly an hour today but he refused to reveal whether they had discussed Fascism.
Reports that the ex-president had “denounced Fascism” to the German dictator were vehemently denied by Hoover’s friend, Paul C.
Smith, general manager of the San Francisco Chronicle, who is accompanying him on a European tour.
RUMORS DENIED
Smith said the reports were “ridiculous” and added:
“Mr. Hoover never repeats what takes place in such conferences.
What probably took place was that in the course of the conversation, he merely expressed his own views on Liberalism, but it is utterly wrong to say this constituted a denunciation of Fascism.”
Smith was barred from the meeting of Hoover and Hitler on the grounds he was a newspaperman.
Hugh R. Wilson, American ambassador to Berlin, accompanied Hoover to see Hitler.
OFFICIALS ATTEND LUNCH
Other high German officials, including Dr. Hjalmer Schacht, president of the Reichsbank. and Baron Konstantin von Neurath, former minister, attended a luncheon given by Wilson today for the American visitor.

FEMININE ANCLE TO FIGURE IN TRIAL
In an eleventh-hour surprise move, the defense in the “Purple Legion murder trial” last night revealed that their case will be based chiefly upon the testimony of a notorious “madcap beauty.” More than this they would not disclose.
This was the latest development in the law school’s sensational mock trial which will open* this evening at 6:30. The entire procedure will be the work of up-perclass legal students. Presiding will be Judge Clarence L. Kincaid of the Los Angeles superior court.
Paul J. Stanton goes on trial tonight charged with “murder” in the first degree. He is “accused” of the stiletto slaying of Arthur Holmes on the night of January 13 at a Purple Legion initiation. Holmes was being inducted into the Legion, a mysterious organization planning to take over the government of a South American country, when he was fatally stabbed.
Stanton, director of the initiation, is charged with the -crime” because i

The Japanese government was represented as anxious to conclude peace since it has conquered all the Chinese territory that 14 want# to control and would like to avofd the tremendous lo*ses which would be entailed in continuing t*te great drive towards Hankow.
Japanese military leaders were represented as believing that there was no chance for a peace campaign until Hankow has been occupied.
PLAY CAST SELECTED
Downey and his colleagues, Joe Brandlin and Mrs. Marjorie Ruman, will put Marian Larson on the
stand.
Miss Larson, the state's chief witness, has declared herelf to be the motive of the “killing.” The prosecution will seek to prove that Stanton, enamoured of Miss Larson and infuriated at an alleged attempt by Holmes to blackmail her, planned and perpetrated the “crime.”
The defense will attempt to re-fut this testimony by maintaining that a feminine desire for revenge for imagined slights by Stanton led Miss Larson to testify for the state.
