Dec. 6 — (U.P) — The United States tonight settled its $25,000,000,000 net lend-lease bill to the United Kingdom for $650,000,000 and agreed to lend her $3,750,000,000 cash. This represents a total loan value of $4,400,000,000. repayable at two per cent interest over a 50-year period beginning Dec. 31. 1951. The cash, designed to put Britain’s war-weakened economy back on its feet and stimulate freer world trade, represents a line of credit upon which Britain may draw from the time the pact becomes effective until Dec. 31, 1951. The loan part of the accord is subject to approval by congress and parliament. It will not become effective until congress has appropriated the funds. The lend-lease settlement does not require congressional approval under the lend-lease act, the president may make whatever settlements he deems satisfactory. Congress granted him that power in enacting the law March, 11, 1941. Soviet Russia and France are expected to seek loans soon. Russia reportedly wants $6,000,000,000. Weekend flying is now available through the College of ronautics at Santa Maria. Calif., to both men and women udents who are enrolled at SC. Today is the last day for registration of students desiring France has just received a big credit fly this weekend. Registration will be in 253 Administration ! through the Export-import bank. In return for the loan. Britain agrees to revise certain restrictive trade policies and practices that will benefit the United States and the world. For example, she agrees to eliminate the sterling area dollar pool within one year after the loan becomes effective and give up certain other discriminatory practices. As a corollary the United States issued a so-called “white paper’’ containing proposals for expansion of world trade and employment. Copies were sent to all governments except Argentina. Spain and the Axis nations. It urges that an international trade and employment conference be held no later than next summer with a view of establishing an international trade organization. 'ding.

BOND TOTAL HITS $16,412.50 Campaign ends today as Chi Omegas, Delta Sigs lead competition -New Year's game- Pandemonium, reigns as grid fans clamour for Bowl seats An untold number of Rose Bowl ticket applications were given out yesterday to students holding activity cards, in a line stretching from Bovard auditorium to Tommy Trojan from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. It was impossible for anyone to see or talk to Arnold Eddy, director of the General Alumni association, or his secretary, who barracaded themselves in their offices throughout the day. Some 50,000 phone calls were received at the switchboard regarding information about the Bowl tickets, yesterday, and each of the four phones in the ticket office had nine calls waiting on lines all during the day. Ticket office workers were swamped with people willing to do almost anything to get a seat at the Pasadena grid game. Many people were pulling, or trying to pull, any strings which might enable them to get a ticket to the tilt. Nevertheless, each received the same answer. Students will be issued applications for only two tickets and alumni will receive applications for four. One ticket for the rooting sectfon will be available for Trojans sometime next week at a reduced rate. All tickets will be mailed Dec. 22. Veterans who are enrolled under the GI Bill of Rights will receive their activity books and application next week if they have not already done so. Students not holding activity books may purchase tickets when they go on sale to the general public about Dec. 15. Students may still receive their applications today in front of Btvard auditorium from 8:30 a.m. until 5 p.m. upon presentation of activity book and identification card. Faculty members may obtain their applications in 209 Student Union any time this week.

Credit slips will be accepted until Tuesday and will count toward the totals for sorority, fraternity, and dormitory competitions. To date. Delta Sigs lead fraterni- I-- tifs with $1200. while SAEs follow with half that sum. Chi Omegas have handed in $5300 worth of credits. Pi Phi has sold $2500. Kappa Deltas and Thetas have each topped the $2000 mark. The drive started slowly because of the confusion during Homecoming week, but the bond committee expected more interest and action with the extension until today. “We set no quota because we had j been warned by the treasury department of a definite lethargy concerning the sale of bonds,” said Ginny Brumfield, chairman of the drive. “Perhaps this total is high, but it certainly doesn't compare with the former million-dollar quotas.” Credits will be received until Tuesday at 4 p.m. so that students who solicited bohds from out of town will have a chance to receive the credit slips through the mail. They may be turned in to Pat Lamb, bond sales chairman, at the Chi Omega house, or to Miss Brumfield, Daily Trojan office.

Marshall told the Pearl Harbor inquiry today that the defenders of Hawaii “could have disorganized. if not stopped" the Japanese in their sneak attack from the air on Dec 7, 1941. An out-of-turn witness, he said that Hawaii needed more aircraft than it possessed and that American planes were greatly outnumbered when the attack came. Nevertheless, he added, “I think they had sufficient means to break up the attack so that it could have done only limited harm.” Marshall, who succesfully guided the destinies of the army through two victories in World war II, also testified that: 1. He had “robbed” other commands to provide airplanes for Pearl Harbor in 1941. 2. A month before Pearl Harbor he believed the garrison there was strong enough to fend off an attack and to defend the navy bases. 3. As early as Feb. 7, 1941. he had warned the 'Hawaiian. army commander. Lt. Gen. Walter C. Short, that “the principal problem there was to be prepared against the emergency of a surprise attack which might come at any time, presumably with the least possible advance notice.” But when the attack came. Marshall admitted, he personally was ! surprised because he didn’t think the Japanese would hazard such a blow. “My own reactions, so far as I can recall them,” he said, “were that this specific operation was not visualized by me. I was more inclined to feel that the hazards were too great and they would hot risk it.” Conceding that Hawaii did not have all that it required for “perfect defense,” Marshall said: “My own impression was that the garrison was sufficiently established and equipped to prevent a landing, succesfully resist an air attack and protect the naval base.” ♦ ing information about foreign countries and universities. Blue Key hopes that this sharing of ideas and information will promote a better and deeper understanding between the two groups of students at this university. Problems of the undergraduate are to be discussed in order to aid in making college life more interesting and beneficial to them, according to Maurice Schmidt, president. Information concerning the schools and colleges of the university and activities on the campus is to be made available to the foreign students. In exchange, these students will present material of a similar nature dealing with their native countries and details about their schools and colleges. To facilitate introducing the students to southern California, the civic group is offering tours to the many points of interest around the city. Phil Burton, Blue Key member, urges all foreign students at SC to attend this assembly. “We are sure that it will prove interesting as well as helpful to all who attend,” he added. Honor men hold dance tomorrow Sweet music and soft lights will prevail at Blue Key’s annual dinner dance Saturday night at the Beverly Hills hotel. Starting at 8. the dance will be open only to members of Blue Key and their dates. Guest of honor will be Dr. Carl Hancey, dean of men and sponsor of Blue Key. Alumni of the men’s service fraternity are invited to attend. According to Chuck Newton, publicity chairman, a great deal of credit for the planning and execution of the evening’s program should go to Ken Golding. Blue Key is currently sponsoring Hello and Smile week, and has aided the victory bond drive, the Red Cross drive, and worked with the blood bank. Cooperating with Las Angeles City college, Blue Key is helping In the orientation of foreign students To enable the student government to get back onto its prewar election schedule, the ASSC senate last night voted to retain the present student officers until the middle of next term. Regular- elections under the wartime schedule would have required a new turnover of officers at | the end of the present term.

This will be the first big postwar tournament. Among the schools participating will be SC,! UCLA. Stanford. College of Pacific, j Pepperdine, Redlands, University of! Oregon. Pomona Junior college, and Pasadena Junior college. Among the events will be extemporaneous oratory, based on the general subject of labor problems in j the United States, and impromptu debate on the subject: “Resolved, that the policy of the United States ; shall be directed toward the estab-; iishment of free trade among the . nations of the world.” There will be men and women's | divisions represented in the toum- j ament. The men’s team will con-sist of the following squads: Earl McDaniel and Jerry Nordland. Maurice Gould, and Eph Konigsberg., Sorrell Trope and Bill Heldman. Vic- j tor Welch and Robert Santos. Ben Lees and William Hamilton, and Gerald Hansen and Sam Soghomon-ien The women’s team will pair Mildred Carmen and Anita Norcop.

With the coming of war and three-term years at SC. the period of office was set at two terms. Thus three elections were held in a two-year period. Officers in the future will take their positions in the spring and retain their leadership until the following spring. In other business proceedings during a peaceful meeting, the senate approved the retention of Jackie Boice as ASSC vice-president until the new elections, although she will become a graduate student at the end of the present term Dean's notice During the last week an effort has been made through the office of the dean of women to exchange coats resulting from the failure of the checking system of the Hermosa Blltmcie hotel at the recent Homecoming dance. In order to determine the number of coats still unaccounted for, students who have not recovered their property should file a written statement in the office of the dean of women or the dean of men before Wednesday, Dec. 12. This statement should give complete description of the property and its approximate value. Unless this report is made in writing before the above date. It is assumed that lost property has been recovered. Helen Hall Moreland. dean of women. Carl Hancey, dean of men. X
