G.O.P. Strength Told
“An organization that can show more than 15,000.000 adherents after 70 years—an irreducible minimum in the reaction from the worst depression the world has ever seen—is indeed testimony to the virility of the principles which Lincoln enunciated,” Mr. Hoover said. ‘ ‘Those principles, the fiber and determination of the party assure that it will be recalled to power .by the American people.” Mr. Hoover renewed his plea for retention of the gold standard as the only path of safety for the nation. He added however, that the world should endeavor to find a place for silver, at least in enlarged subsidiary coinage.
Opposes Cancellation Cancellation of war debts would not give relief and the importance of these debts in world trade is exaggerated, Mr. Hoover continued. He suggested that if central banks should cooperate to stabilize world currencies, some part of the debt payments might be set aside for temporary use in this way.
Mr. Hoover asked for national solidarity in dealing with international questions. He said the best path to recovery lay in cooperating with the world in reviving consumption and stabilized currencies and reducing trade ob-

New Japanese Advance Ready
China Fully Prepared To Meet Invaders With Strong Opposition
(Copyright 1933 by United Press)
TOKIO, Tuesday, Feb. 14.—(LE) —Japan's military forces will shortly occupy disputed Jehol province despite world opinion, it appeared absolutely certain today.
Possibility that the grim, green-clad infantrymen of the Japanese imperial army will push on past the great Chinese wall to occupy Tientsin and Peiping cannot be ignored. Developments at Peiping and Nanking, headquarters of the Chinese nationalist government, indicate China is prepared to resist the Japanese in Jehol on a scale even more extensive than was the defense of Shanghai.
Press and public here are most concerned over developments at Geneva. Japan is sincerely anxious for league of nations approval of its activities.
Japanese diplomatic leaders, however, bluntly declare the league and the United States government a?« mistaken, il they believe there will be any deviation from Japan’s fixed policy of continuing dejure recognition of Manchoukuo.
Veteran observers have never seen Japan more united.
Informed sources declare the league and the United States must be prepared to use extensive military force if they hope to carry out any subsequent efforts to enforce their view points in the Far East after the league of nations assembly adopts pending recommendations criticizing Japanese activity in Manchuria.
Japan will unquestionably reject the league’s Manchuria recommendations, although an attempt may be made to delay proceedings by suggesting revisions, «uuendments and reservations.

184 Men and 301 Women Enroll in Botany Classes
A woman dressed in mannish attire, striding over hill and dale, plucking blossoms as she goes, and after picking the buds, pressing the flowers in a book and then forgetting them—this is the concept of a botanist by tbe man in the street.
The average S.C. student seems to side with him with the addition of a fresh angle—namely that a botany course is one wherein young women enroll, learn long j Latin names for flow ers, and i promptly forget them. But as far as botany having a practical application to everyday life and being a science in which men participate—that idea seems a little impossible of assimilation by the ordinary person. Figures and facts collected by the botany depart ment, however, seem to prove that brawny men as well as fair women select botany courses and also that botany has a real economic value.
During th® year 1931-32 there were 184 men enrolled in botany
classes and 301 women, which seems to indicate that the study of plant life is of interest to S.C. men. During the same year the number of men who were awarded their master’s degrees in botany practically equalled that of the women.
“While botany as a profession is overcrowded, as are many other fields, it still offers an opportunity to people who wish to do creative work,” according to Mrs. Tema Clare, professor of botany. “Positions in citrus experiment stations, forestry, nurseries, agriculture, and government work are frequently open to botany graduates.”
The S.C. department of botany offers courses in plantecology, in which plant habitat is studied; the study of fungi diseases and parasites; marine plant biology, in which the various seaweeds are studied; and plant physiology, a course for the study of plant reactions and structures
Botanists Plan Field Excursion
Beginning a series of four field trips, general botany classes will make an excursion to Whites’ point, Saturday, for the purpose of studying marine vegetation. George R. Johnstone, professor of botany, will accompany students.
Transportation by means of private cars will be carried on, as in the past. Students wrill meet in the Herbarium, 269 Science, at 9 a.m. Saturday, and will return there by 1 p.m.
Whites’ point is approximately one mile west of Point Firmin, San Pedro, Students should carry a notebook and laboratory paper to use in collection of specimens. The trip is optional for introductory botany classes. Professor Johnstone announced that it would be advisable, but not necessary, to carry lunches.
Hitler Completes Move
BERLIN, Fob. 13.—(LE)—Chancellor Adolf Hitler's “house-cleaning” of Prussia’s administration continued today with an order which eliminated the last remaining Socialist governors and police chiefs in that state.

N.C.P. To Cast Extras Today
Minor Characters Needed For Production of “He Who Gets Slapped”
With the casting today of minor and atmosphere players for the annual N.C.P. production “He Who Gets Slapped,” work on the play will proceed with the cast
complete.
That these minor characters are very essential to the mood and general atmosphere of the play was emphasized by W. Ray MacDonald, who is directing the cast. Tryouts will be held in Bovard at 3:15 and he has invited anyone interested in acting to appear as he will need about 15 characters to complete the cast.
Circus and character stage types will comprise the “atmosphere” personnel. A few' of the parts will be speaking parts, wrhile the other will be more of the crowd scene description. Acrobats, strong men, bareback riders, actresses, and clowns will make up this group and provide the circus background.
The play, a three-act drama by Leonid Andreyev, is a translation from the Russian and portrays the spirit of unrest that prevailed during her frequent revolutions. MacDonald states that it is a symbolic type of play and is one of the heaviest drama plays that a campus cast has ever attempted here.
With the cast of experienced players that have been chosen for the play, he feels confident that an authentic reproduction will be given. The cast of major players includes such well-known campus names as George Ordansky, Norman Wright, Jack Swarthout, Bill Hoppe, Dorothea Bell, Jean Sellers, Bob Boyle, Myra Jane McClung, Margaret Dudley, and Wallace Fraser.
The group has been rehearsing for the past twro weeks.

Old Indians Demand Death Penalty for Grave Robber
TUBA CITY, Ariz., Feb. 13.— (LE)—Inflamed by age-old belief in the weird superstitions of their race3—yet calmed by long association with civilization—tribesmen of the western Navajo reservation today turned their backs upon the traditional mandate of death and appealed to the white man for punishment of a young brave, guilty, to them, of the most heinous crime->—grave robbery.
While old and wrinkled braves sat about eerily blazing council fires and talked of death for tne offender, younger Indians sought out federal officials and delivered to them the accused indian.
The spirit of “Smiling W’dmaD” cries for vengeance, the Navajoes declared. The grave of the young squaw, looted of a blanket and silver rings two weeks after her death, has cast upon the northern tribesmen a host of evil spirits, the old men of the tribe aver.
To expiate the deed, mutter the aged Indians, the young offender
must die, according to the old law of the redmen.
Councils were called throughout the bleak and snow-swept reservation. As the Indians harangued the redman’s law vied against that of the whites.
J. S. Wheeler, assistant United States attorney, answered the plea of the younger Indians, took from the Navajoes the accused brave and placed him in the Holbrook, Ariz., jail.
The Indian, according to Wheeler, had confessed to the deed, and readily admitted he took "Smiling Woman's” blanket and some silver coins from her dress.
Questioned by authorities, he replied he thought the blanket would keep him from freezing and that it would not do the dead woman any good. A larceny charge has been filed against him.
Had not federal authorities acted, said Wheeler, the vengeance of the tribesmen would have brought death to the youthful Indian.

Each manuscript must be written with a nom-de-plume, or pen name, accompanied by a sealed envelope in which is enclosed the writer’s true name, address, his fictitious name, and the title of the manuscript.

New Japanese Advance Ready China Fully Prepared To Meet Invaders With Strong Opposition (Copyright 1933 by United Press) TOKIO, Tuesday, Feb. 14.—(LE) —Japan's military forces will shortly occupy disputed Jehol province despite world opinion, it appeared absolutely certain today. Possibility that the grim, green-clad infantrymen of the Japanese imperial army will push on past the great Chinese wall to occupy Tientsin and Peiping cannot be ignored. Developments at Peiping and Nanking, headquarters of the Chinese nationalist government, indicate China is prepared to resist the Japanese in Jehol on a scale even more extensive than was the defense of Shanghai. Press and public here are most concerned over developments at Geneva. Japan is sincerely anxious for league of nations approval of its activities. Japanese diplomatic leaders, however, bluntly declare the league and the United States government a?« mistaken, il they believe there will be any deviation from Japan’s fixed policy of continuing dejure recognition of Manchoukuo. Veteran observers have never seen Japan more united. Informed sources declare the league and the United States must be prepared to use extensive military force if they hope to carry out any subsequent efforts to enforce their view points in the Far East after the league of nations assembly adopts pending recommendations criticizing Japanese activity in Manchuria. Japan will unquestionably reject the league’s Manchuria recommendations, although an attempt may be made to delay proceedings by suggesting revisions, «uuendments and reservations.

The average S.C. student seems to side with him with the addition of a fresh angle—namely that a botany course is one wherein young women enroll, learn long j Latin names for flow ers, and i promptly forget them. But as far as botany having a practical application to everyday life and being a science in which men participate—that idea seems a little impossible of assimilation by the ordinary person. Figures and facts collected by the botany depart ment, however, seem to prove that brawny men as well as fair women select botany courses and also that botany has a real economic value. During th® year 1931-32 there were 184 men enrolled in botany classes and 301 women, which seems to indicate that the study of plant life is of interest to S.C. men. During the same year the number of men who were awarded their master’s degrees in botany practically equalled that of the women. “While botany as a profession is overcrowded, as are many other fields, it still offers an opportunity to people who wish to do creative work,” according to Mrs. Tema Clare, professor of botany. “Positions in citrus experiment stations, forestry, nurseries, agriculture, and government work are frequently open to botany graduates.” The S.C. department of botany offers courses in plantecology, in which plant habitat is studied; the study of fungi diseases and parasites; marine plant biology, in which the various seaweeds are studied; and plant physiology, a course for the study of plant reactions and structures Botanists Plan Field Excursion Beginning a series of four field trips, general botany classes will make an excursion to Whites’ point, Saturday, for the purpose of studying marine vegetation. George R. Johnstone, professor of botany, will accompany students. Transportation by means of private cars will be carried on, as in the past. Students wrill meet in the Herbarium, 269 Science, at 9 a.m. Saturday, and will return there by 1 p.m. Whites’ point is approximately one mile west of Point Firmin, San Pedro, Students should carry a notebook and laboratory paper to use in collection of specimens. The trip is optional for introductory botany classes. Professor Johnstone announced that it would be advisable, but not necessary, to carry lunches.

To Cast Extras Today Minor Characters Needed For Production of “He Who Gets Slapped” With the casting today of minor and atmosphere players for the annual N.C.P. production “He Who Gets Slapped,” work on the play will proceed with the cast complete. That these minor characters are very essential to the mood and general atmosphere of the play was emphasized by W. Ray MacDonald, who is directing the cast. Tryouts will be held in Bovard at 3:15 and he has invited anyone interested in acting to appear as he will need about 15 characters to complete the cast. Circus and character stage types will comprise the “atmosphere” personnel. A few' of the parts will be speaking parts, wrhile the other will be more of the crowd scene description. Acrobats, strong men, bareback riders, actresses, and clowns will make up this group and provide the circus background. The play, a three-act drama by Leonid Andreyev, is a translation from the Russian and portrays the spirit of unrest that prevailed during her frequent revolutions. MacDonald states that it is a symbolic type of play and is one of the heaviest drama plays that a campus cast has ever attempted here. With the cast of experienced players that have been chosen for the play, he feels confident that an authentic reproduction will be given.

Old Indians Demand Death Penalty for Grave Robber TUBA CITY, Ariz., Feb. 13.— (LE)—Inflamed by age-old belief in the weird superstitions of their race3—yet calmed by long association with civilization—tribesmen of the western Navajo reservation today turned their backs upon the traditional mandate of death and appealed to the white man for punishment of a young brave, guilty, to them, of the most heinous crime->—grave robbery. While old and wrinkled braves sat about eerily blazing council fires and talked of death for tne offender, younger Indians sought out federal officials and delivered to them the accused indian. The spirit of “Smiling W’dmaD” cries for vengeance, the Navajoes declared. The grave of the young squaw, looted of a blanket and silver rings two weeks after her death, has cast upon the northern tribesmen a host of evil spirits, the old men of the tribe aver. To expiate the deed, mutter the aged Indians, the young offender must die, according to the old law of the redmen. Councils were called throughout the bleak and snow-swept reservation. As the Indians harangued the redman’s law vied against that of the whites. J. S. Wheeler, assistant United States attorney, answered the plea of the younger Indians, took from the Navajoes the accused brave and placed him in the Holbrook, Ariz., jail. The Indian, according to Wheeler, had confessed to the deed, and readily admitted he took "Smiling Woman's” blanket and some silver coins from her dress. Questioned by authorities, he replied he thought the blanket would keep him from freezing and that it would not do the dead woman any good. A larceny charge has been filed against him. Had not federal authorities acted, said Wheeler, the vengeance of the tribesmen would have brought death to the youthful Indian.
