De Chasca Discusses Uruguay Philosopher At Final LAS Forum
The philosophy of Jose Rodo, rho has been called the pro-Ihet of Latin American ideal-)m, was presented by Dr. Ed-lund V. deChasca yesterday |s the closing address in the lS lecture series.
The importance of Dr. De-thasca’s subject to this university, which has more Latin American students than any other rhool in the United States, was loin ted out by Dr. Harold von Hofe, ('.to introduced the speaker.
“Rodo's name is a byword in Spanish-speaking America,” said r. DeChasca. associate professor of ^panisht “although it has not revived the recognition it deserves in le English-speaking world.” IASTERPIECE

Dr. DeChasca, i n explaining Jo's conception of the nature of inn, outlined the opposing schools thought represented by Machia-tlli and Nietzsche, on the one land, and Descartes and Rousseau the other. The first considers |\an to be basically irrational, while he second finds him a rational be-ig-

QUALITY PERSONIFIED ‘ Rodo represents Caliban as the •rsonification of man’s mateiialis-[c qualities, with Ariel as the blithe :>irit of the air, who personifies the ipremacy of reason over the lower jnpulses," explained Dr. DeChasca. Rodo refutes Henry A. Wallace’s |uth in the superior wisdom of the immon man. The philosopher puts |is faith in the leadership of the icommon man.

British-Russian Clashes Topic Of Talk Today
Baker to Describe Conflicting Interests At I. R. Club Meeting
Open to all students who care to attend, the International Relations club meeting today will feature Alonzo Baker, lecturer in political science, who will discuss j “The Real Conflict Between Great Britain and Russia.” The meeting will be held in 318 Student Union and will begn at 3:15, accordng to H. Carroll Thompson, club presi-dent.
The conflict between these two countries is not over Greece, Iran, or Indonesia, as many people have thought, asserted Mr. Baker in a preview of his speech. Britain has for many years regarded the Mediterranean as her own sea and is now worried about Russia's challenge to her commercial and militaristic monopoly.
“The disagreement concern Russia's desire to have access to the Mediterranean and to have outlets from the Black sea. including the passage through the Dardanelles and Dodecanese islands to the Italian colonies south of Ethiopia,” said Mr. Baker.
“Russia also desires a seat on the Tangier control board,” he continued, “and she wishes to exert her influence in the Suez control directory — two ambitions denied her in the past.” ’
In his discussion Mr. Baker will offer a solution to this seemingly insoluble diplomatic problems, intended to benefit both Britain and Russia and the political equilibrium of the world.

Chicago Clamps Down on Fires
CHICAGO, June 5—0)—Two loop theateres and five night clubs, charged with “repeatedly ignoring” warnings ,to correct fire hazards, were ordered to close their doors tonight at the end of the day's business.
Paul Gerhardt, Jr., city • building commissioner, said the places were the first to be shut down in the aftermath of the La Salle hotel fire. “There will be others,” he warned.
The .theaters closed were the Great Northern, at which the play “Windy City” is appearing, and the Shubert theater, where “Up In Central Park-’ is playing.
“They have repeatedly ignored warnings by the building department and the fire prevention bureau,” Gerhardt said. He said they would remain closed indefinitely.
Don't Change Schools—V.A.
The $65 or $90 per month probably won’t be coming to veterans who plan to enroll in summer courses in colleges or universities other than the one they are attending at the present time.
Veterans administration urges veterans to continue in the universities they are now are attending, whenever possible, to avoid delay in receipt of subsistence payments.
L C. Chapman, regional manager, pointed out that students taking summer courses ouf ide the Los Angeles area must transfer their files to another regional V. A. office. Those transferring within the area must be processed at the new school. In both Instances, subsistence payments are delayed because of the change.
Ir. most cases, veterans would be without subsistence payments during the summer session, although they would be made later, Chapman said.
If the veteran returned to the school in which he is now regularly enrolled, his case would have to be transferred back from the summer school with subsequent delay in receipt of subsistence payments at the beginning of the fall term.

Gallion* dean of the College of Architecture, yesterday outlined plans for SC’s future development at the weekly luncheon meeting of the Men’s Faculty club.
Dean Gallion emphasized that the plans he has made are only preliminary studies and are not official plans. He stated that they are intended to be used for advisory purposes, and as an aid to the university administration in planning expansion.
“Campus planning is not a static thing,” Dean Gallion declared. “It must be such as to allow addition of buildings as required.”
TRAFFIC PROBLEM
Taking separately each of the problems which besets the university in planning for the future, Dean Gallion first described the transportation problem confronting SC. He believes that the traffic situation may be solved by the use of freeways to be built by the city.
“I expect that traffc condition* which now exist on campus will be greatly changed by these freeways,” Dean Gallion said.
Closely related to the transportation and traffic problem is parking space. Dean Gallion stated that this semester there is an average of 4700 cars on campus daily, while there are parking available with a capacity for less than 2000. HINDERS EDUCATION
