To illustrate his talk Dr. Guilford will show slides exhibiting the psychological system of colors. This is an arrangement of all the colors it is possible to see.
He will point out the relation of color preferences to the system and will describe how predictions of color preferences are made when the place of the color in the system is known.
The educator has worked on this study for more than 10 years. As a science, the study started only about 50 years ago. Psychologists use white rats extensively for experimental purposes in determing color preferences because the animals’ likes tend to agree with those of humans.

Neutrality Patrol May ‘Legally1 Enter Fixed Combat Zones
WASHINGTON, April 29— (U.P.) — President Roosevelt today reaffirmed his determination to extend operations of the naval neutrality patrol as far as necessary to safeguard the western hemisphere. He said that United States fighting ships may legally enter combat zones fixed, under the neutrality act.
At a press conference he said that only merchant ships are barred from the combat areas, and emphatically stated that his explanation did not mean that naval craft were to be sent into these danger zones.
But he refused to say how far into the seven seas—the all-inclusive area into which he has declared the patrol would be sent, if necessary—units of the patrol now are operating to create a safe lane for war shipments to Great Britain.
Admiral Harold R. Stark, chief of naval operations, said in an address to the chamber of commerce of the United States, that units of the patrol already are operating as fat as 2000 miles in the Atlantic. In informal remarks preceding his prepared address, he said the patrols are operating 3000 miles out. He later told reporters he meant 2000 miles.
Stark also hinted that more American fighter ships soon might be transferred to Britain—a report which also was published in the “U. S. Coast Guard Magazine,” an unofficial but accurate journal on activities relating to this service.

Nazis to Destroy U.S. Ships Carrying War Aid to British
BERLIN, April 29—(U.P.)—
I Germany warned the United States today that any attempt to convoy or carry war supplies to Britain can result only in the “rapid sinking of American ships.”
“The blockade of German weap-j ons is waiting on all routes between America and England,” said the Influential Deutsch Algemeine Zeitung.
Regarding the extension of th® American neutrality patrol zone the newspaper said:
‘GOOD FOR SINKING*
‘‘Americans would do well to harbor no illusions. With or without tha use of their own warships, traveling in convoys or alone, all war deliveries fundamentally are good for sinking’.”
Developments along the war and diplomatic fronts reported here included :
1.	Intensification of the tension between Germany and the United States, characterized generally by informed Nazi sources as having reached the critical stage.
2.	The sinking of 18.600 tons of allied shipping in Greek waters in a continuation of bombing of im-

WASHINGTON, April 20—<U.P>— Russia's decree banning transit of war materials through the Soviet Union was viewed here tonight aa evidence of a widening breach with Germany.
In the absence of state department comment, it was said unofficially that the decree—coming while both the Germans and Japanese war machines were being fed with supplies shipped through Russia—would indicate that Russia is adopting self-protective measures dictated by Germany's quick conquest of the Balkans and fear of a possible German invasion.
