New Causes of War
Professor to Discuss Political Ideologies at Second of New Wednesday Lecture Series
“Political Ideologies and the War” as outlined by Dr. Carlton C. Rodee, associate professor of political science and public administration, is the theme of this week’s Wednesday lecture to be given in the art and lecture room of Doheny library at 4:30.
Straying from the popular belief that' war is only an effect of economic differences, Dr. Rodee will sketch other ideologies that led up to World war I in his background material.
He will present three essential sides to the discussion, the consideration of the casual factors of the present war, the tools of modern warfare, including propaganda, and reconstruction ideologies.
Diverging from one belief that economic factors are the major causes of war, Dr. Rodee intends to show the other factors that one must consider in the bringing about of conflict.
Under the discussion of the tools of modern warfare, he will consider propaganda as a vital source of ideas, as it effects common thought and as it stimulates the ideas of a nation’s leaders.
Reconstruction ideologies will include a nation’s attitude toward other countries, and the policies within the domestic homeland.
Dr. Rodee continues the lecture series which started under the speakership of Dr. T. Walter Wallbank last Wednesday, when he gave the background and issues of war politics. Dr. Wallbank reduced the cause of the present situation to the “lack of social engineering in human relations; a tremendous illustration of culture lag.”
Dr. Wallbank traced world conflict's up to the present time, beginning with the fighting instinct as the primal urge of early civilization.
He indicated the change of the primitive state to that of a patriotic, national state. From this developed commerce and trade, and with it, a recognition of outside nations, their attitudes, and influences upon one another.
Dr. Muelder Urges Rebirth for Religion
Philosophy Series Continues Tomorrow With Bowne Hall Talk
Dr. Walter G. Muelder, professor of Christian theology and Christian ethics, will highlight the second meeting of the current Philosophy forum tomorrow afternoon when he lectures on “Rehabilitating Religion.” It will take place at' 4:15 in Bowne hall, Mudd Memorial Hall of Philosophy.
“Religion,” stated Dr. Muelder, “is challenged today both by great forces of irreligion throughout the world, and by its own lack of nerve. The challenge for Nazism and Communism is against organized religion itself. The challenge from individualism and secularism is against the essence of all religion.” Commenting on the subject of his lecture, Dr. Muelder remarked that to be thoroughly rehabilitated, religion must take the social initiative. To accomplish his task, it must launch a threefold postwar program.
“It must reestablish unity among the various sect's in Christiandom. It must find a common front with Judaism, and it must found a strategy in respect to the various world’s religions.”
Dr. Muelder maintains that an
enduring peace is possible only if a common world mind can be established, for the production of this world mind is the basic responsibility of religion.
“It can also take social initiative by cooperating with and directing the democratic forces in this and other nations. A rehabilitated religion will not be a sanction for the status-quo, but will be a prophetic call to a reconstructed social order,” Dr. Muelder said.
The second of a series of six weekly lectures based on the themes “War in a Changing World,” the lectures are free to the public. The series will be concluded on Mar. 21 when Dr. Rufus B. von KleinSmid makes his first appearance on the forum program, lecturing on “Constructive Peace.”
“Our lectures this year are de-\ “Lucia Di Lammermoor,” and j signed to appeal especially to the

for Play to Begin
Women Predominate ‘Stage Door’ Cast; Parts Open for 33
Tryouts will begin tomorrow for the all-university production of the George S. Kauf-man-Edna Ferber play, “Stage Door,” according to William C. DeMille, professor of drama.
The production, which will be presented for five nights beginning April 30 in Bovard auditorium, will feature a cast
made up entirely of students. All students enrolled in the university are eligible to try for parts.
George Goldberg, student director of the production, states that a large number of varied roles are open in the play. Some very fine parts for women are stressed, but men also will have chances for parts, he said.
MEN DOMINATE
Thirty-three widely diversified
roles are open to students. Twenty-two women will be cast, and 11 men.
“The play is an expert' blend of comedy and drama,” Goldberg said, “and is considered by critics to be one of the deftest collaborations of the two veteran playwrights. It was included in Burns Mantle’s annual volume of the 10 best Broadway plays and has won many other honors.”
Theme of the play is the time-honored struggle of the newcomer fighting for stage recognition, Goldberg revealed. The plot is laid in a unique girls* theatrical boarding establishment', with wisecracks filling the air and often hiding the real tragedies of youthful disappointment behind brash facades.
LITTLE THEATER
Bovard auditorium will be partially blocked off with curtains, reducing the seating capacity to 600 and transforming the large hall into an intimate playhouse. This procedure was followed in last' semester’s production of “You Can’t Take It With You’’ and proved highly satisfactory, Goldberg concluded.
Appointments for tryouts, which begin tomorrow and will run for two weeks, can be made with Professor DeMille in the School of Speech office, Old College, or in the play productions office, 217 Student1 Union.

Showdown Looms in Price Dispute
WASHINGTON, Mar. 1.—(Ui?)— President Roosevelt and senate farm bloc leaders are expected to have a showdown conference this week in their controversy involving food prices for America’s millions.
The date of the meeting will be arranged by Senate Majority Leader Alben W. Barkley, D., Ky., when Mr. Roosevelt sees his legislative chieftains. Senators expected to participate are John A. Bankhead, D., Ala., Elmer Thomas, D., Okla., Allen Ellender, D„, La., Guy M. Gillette, D., Ia., Scott Lucas, D., HI., Minority Leader Charles L. McNary, and George Aiken, R., Vt.
The dispute centers on maximum farm prices. The recently-enacted price control bill prevents the imposition of farm price ceilings below 110 per cent of parity. The president wants these prices stabilized at a point where, plus government benefit payments, parity
