No Candidates File in Election For Top Commerce Positions
A new low was hit last night in the battle for the presidential seat of the College ef Commerce when it was announced that not one petition had been turned in as late as yestreday for the two top positions in the commerce senate. Nominations to fill the vacancy left by Dusty Rhode will go on the ballot Friday.
Deadline to file petitions is noon today in President Jim Mitchell’s office, 235 Student Union.
Norman Galentine, elections commissioner, is hoping for immediate action on the part of the probable candidates. From a sick bed he observed, “We*re looking for last-minute applicants tomorrow’. If we don't get them, I’ll be out of here stirring up candidates myself.”
Thc possibility of no candidates filing petitions before noon today will leave the entire political body of the college in the hands of Carl von Buelow, who picked up the presidential reins after Dusty Rhode, quit office.
Voting will take place at an election booth in front of Bovard Friday from 9 a.m. until 4 p.m. Only students registered in the College of Commerce will be allowed to vote.

“Because we have the knowledge of the atom bomb, the other countries of the world are a little nervous. There can be no real security while such a feeling exists. There can be no real security for any of us unless we all submit to the same kind of inspection, control, and punishment.

EDITORIALS STAY
The editorial policy will remain constant, approximately three editorials in each issue, with the “oft’-criticized” quality of the editorials consistently lessening.
With spring sports in full swing, the sports page of the Trojan will continue to grow as the supply of material and the demand for it increases. An enlargement of the sports staff is expected soon with the placing of more reporters to cover the additional events of spring.
MORE WIRE COPY
Responsibility for increasing the number of Letters to the Editor will fall on the readers of the Trojan. All letters lauding or criticizing the policy of the Trojan or other organizations on campus, containing at least a meager amount of constructiveness, will be printed.

“These programs should give the radio public a chance to hear opinions of international relations students on various subjects of major importance,” Bob Hillhouse, coordinator for the panel, said. “It will also give the participating students an opportunity to present their conclusions gained from study in the particular fields outside of classrooms,” he continued.
Other topics planned for the program are, "A Germany for Tomorrow,” in which Germany will be discussed in light of developments of the present Moscow conference of foreign ministers: "Hope of International Police Work,” and "Our Stake in Chin*.-*
Hadley to Explain Argentine Tangle
'There is no question as to the fact that the common people in Argentina are benefiting, at least temporarily, from the Peron regime,” said Paul Hadley, instructor In international relations, in outlining the speech he will give today at the Men’s Faculty club luncheon.
Speaking on, “Peron, Messer -smith, and the Argentine Tangle,” Professor Hadley will present his views on the relationship of present Argentine policies to Latin America, the Pan-American union, and the United States.
P.R. on Trial As Drafting Task Ends
by Jerry Maher and Lloyd Hearn
Climaxing more than four months of intensive effort, the ASSC constitutional committee tonight lays before the senate a completely new con-j stitution for the government of the student body. In the event of successful passage, the document will be presented to the Trojan electorate
for ratification.
The constitution embodies, for the first time since the passage of the present instrument in 1936. a form of proportional representation with I a majority vote for the election of I senators-at-large.
In accordance with existing con-; stitutional procedure, voting on the ! constitution will be deferred until ; a later date, and it must be empha-| sized, committee members observed.
I that administration approval is 1 necessary, as well as ratification b.v the student body, before the docu-j ment becomes law.
FAST WORK Slow to start work following his i appointment as chairman of the committee in October. Alf Harrison nonetheless pushed the constitution to completion in a remarkably short time after weekly committee meetings were begun in November. Committee members, cognizant from the first that a compromise between as a surprise to most of the audi- j conflicting ideologies was necessary, ence.	! conducted meetings with a minimum

“However, show me one example in world history where nations have supplied troops to maintain peace. It can't be done. No nation is going to war unless its own interests are at stake.” Dr. Nash said. CRUSADER
Dr. Nash, having crusaded for a strong w<#ld government since the early 1930's, was bitter in his denunciation of the United Nations as it now stands.
“The UN has no more teeth in it than the League of Nations had, i which was none. It doesn't even ; have sore gums from cutting its j first tooth, nor a set of false teeth with which to enforce world order," he declared.
Telling his audience that “you don't have one chance in ten to live to be 30 years old." Dr. Nash pleaded for a strong world government which could effectively control the atomic bomb.

Gould Comments on Concert
Trapped in the middle of a rehearsal for the women’s glee club yesterday afternoon, band and glee club director William H. Gould cheerfully took a few minutes off and consented to comment on Friday night's forthcoming concert in Bovard auditorium.
“The program is a unique combination offering a variety of contrasts of men's and women’s voices and the concert band: three distinct groups performing with a total of 175 students,” Mr. Gould explained.
Each group features music of different style: the women are representing three popular selections, "Close as Pages in a Book.” “There are Such Thing .” and “Holiday for Strings.” Fol'owing this lighter vein, they will turn their tr.lsnts to two
