boasting the largest number of
honor roll students.. :
Although the seniors are just
now recovering from the tremen
dous tests, they are ready to turn
over a new leaf and study hard
for the next eighteen weeks.
The seniors had thought that
Professor Brown’s. (uge sheet pof
memorgraphed history questions
and the large number of Krench
questions were enough, but when
Mrs. Parker handed them the
vast sheet of English questions, in
cluing two compositions tc write
they quivered. The Arithmetic
test was not at all mediocre,
either.
Junior Class
Members ofo the junior class can
rest a little while now. They
studied so hard for their tests

pected. .

Slocombe Gives
Final Speech on
European Crisis
The United States would have
little chance to remain neutral in
event of a general European war
according to George Slocombe,
British journalist and speaker at
the University Institute of Public
Affairs last night.
“Phe neutrality act of the Uni
ted Stares miznt even prove a
dangerous illusion of safety,” he
stated in nis speech last night, ex
plaining that “at some point or
another during such a war Amer
jea is almost certain-to find Lits
interests threatened by one side or
another and to intervene.”
“Moreover,” he added, “if Ger
many and Russia are at war, Japan
is pledged to intervene on the side
of Germany with the result that
the Far Bast will inevitably be in
volved, How about American neu
trality then?”
In the morning lecture yesterday,
Slocombe skid that 'while most’
Europeans are resigned to the in
evitability of this general Buropean
war, he is of the Qpinlon that the
possibility 1s very strong that the
war would remain localized. “Eu
rope has passed two other crises
this year,” he said, “The first when
England and Italy were near open
hostilities over Ethiopia and the
second when Hitler marched his
army into the Rhineland.
. “Hitler’'s threat to establish a
foothold in Spanish Morocco in
cited Great Britain and France to
‘abandon the passive attitude they
‘had observea since the beginning
iot the Spanish war, and to utter‘
‘the first direct challenge to Hit
ler made since he became dictator
of Germany four years ago,” he
isaid. adding that the challenge
was translated into action by the
‘dispatching of French and British |
‘fleeis to the Mediterranean wa- |
‘ters to prevent the landing of a.nyi
'more German troops or munitions
‘on the coast of Morocco. That
challenge, according to Siocombe,
provea offective.
_ Hitler backed down and prom
ised to respect the integrity of
Spanjsh and Moroccan possessions.’
This incident may prove the turn
ing point in European history,
Slocombe declared, for it is the
first time that the bluff of a Fas
‘cist power has been called.
' “In Hitler's case it may be that
he backed down because he is not
ready for war,” he said, “but 11
prefer to believe that in i2very
case where the democracies of the]
world show themselves ready and
prepared to resist the attack of
Fascism, the Fascist power wmi
back down. Fascism only suc-‘
ceeded in establishing itself inj
Germany, Italy and Austria with- |
out striking a blow because dem-{
ocracy in those countries did no'u‘
sufficently believe in the seriouas-J
ness of the Fascist threat and was
unprepared to meet it when =it
came.” : ‘ |

ter, Gwendolyn Edith.
Later, she asserted, Billings left
for America. She married and
moved to Winnipeg. She sald five
years ago she saw Gable on the

Gable’'s comment was:
“] have never béen in England

question, and bave .no knowledge
whatever of the circumstances in
volved,
“I first learned of these claims
almost two years ago. At that time
1 did not consider the matter
worthy of serious action. Now that
the authorities have decided to
prosecute, as a. citizen 1 can only
offer my fullest cooperation.”
During 1922 and 1923, Gable was
employed in a Portland department
store and working as a lumberjack
in the Oregon woods, he said.
Dangers of Social
Diseases Cited By
" College Lecturer
“Twelve out of every w:-e(fl
young men between the a ofl
sixteen and thirty will become the
viteims of syphilis,” Pr. S. ‘Ross
Brown, ‘assistant ¢hief of the divi
sion of venereal fdisease control,
said this morning at the freshman
assembly in the University chapel.
Syhpilis, he_continued, is respon
sible for one-‘enth of the insanity
throughout the United States, and
for eighteen per cent of all heart
and blood vessel diseases. Syphilis
is also responsible for quite a large
percentage of the still births, and
deaths in the first few months of‘
life, in the state of Georiga. !
Though we have in the past look-l
ed upon syphilis as a disease of im
morality, Dr. Brown brought out.‘
we now know from exhaussive!
study of these conditions that ap
proximately fifty per cent of these
diseases are spread innocently.
Kissing is the most frequent meth
od of transmission of this disease
in itg innecent form; other modes
of transmission innocently are:
the publie .drinking cup or glass;
useé of ‘a napkin, handkerchief,
towel, plpe, cigarette, or the mouth
piece of a musical instrument, ete,,
following the wuse by an infected
person.
Grouping the method of control
of venereal diseases undep four
heads, namely edueational talks,
prophylactie, treatment, and contact
follows-up of the source of the in
fection, Dr. Browh .stated that at
present the care of neglected cases
is costing tax payers of the state
hundreds of thousands of dollars a
year, |

NEW FARM LOAN BILL
15 LAUDED BY BROWN
Tenth District Congress
man Favors Larger Feder
al Appropriation
WASHINGTON -— Representa
tive Faul Brown, of Georgia, told
his house colleagues Monday that
the $50,000,000 feed and seed loan
bill passed late Monday afternoon
by the lower chamber was ‘“the
most helpful service rendered to
the farmers of his state this year”.
He said that inasmuch as the
amount authorized to be appropri
ated was twice as large as that ap
propriation last years farmers of
Georgia, unable to obtagn credit
elsewhere, could receive much more
than they borrowed in 1936.
Cotton at 6 Cents
“In 1933,” the Georgian declared,
“corn was selling for 18 cents a
bushel, wheat for 30 cents and cot
ton was bringing not more than 5
or 6 cents a pound. Farmers of my
state remainea on their farms in
spite of these prices and year after
year became deeper in debt. With
better prices for their commodities
during the last three years they
‘have paid past-due taxes and li
quidated much of their indebted
}ness. However, only a small per
centage of them can furnish se
'curity required by bankers for
loans.
“In many rural sections there
arg no banks or lending institu
tions. Thousands of banks closed
all over the country, and on on¢
day prior to the banking holiday,
68 banks were closed in Georgia.
Necessarily, the banks and lend
ing institutions require more ade
quate security than they did prior
to 1988.
Large Number Aided
“It is true that production e¢redit
associations are supplying credit
to a large number of farmers and |
réndering a splendid service, but
the object of this bill is to con
tinug to serve that class es far
mers in every sectiop of the coun
try who are not in position to
avail themselves of the lending
facilities of these associations.
Farmers as a general rule are in
much better financial condition
thap prior to 1933, but there still
exists a need for continuance of
the policy of loaning direct to far
mers who are unable to receive
benefits from the production
eredit associations or from private
lending agencies. J
~ “Under this act the borrower
can not obtain more than S4OO
and the loan must be secured by a
first lien on the crop. To be eligi
ble, the applicant must establish
that he is unable to procure a
loan elsewhere adequate to meet
‘his needs. Preference is given to
tapplications of small cash require
| ments,
Meet Emergencies
“Continuance of the feed and
seed loan, together with continu
ance of the activities of the Re
construction Finance Corporation
and the Commodity Credit Corpor
ation which was reported unani
mously from our committee and
passed almost unanimously by
both branches of congress last
week, is most helpful to all classes
of our people. Loans by the Com
modity Credit Corporation have
been quite beneficial in stabilizing
the price of cotton and other com
modities. It is true that the RFC
and the (Commodity Credit Cor
poration did not make extensive
loans last year, but encouraged
banks and private sources to make
Joans. I think it is a wise and
good policy toskeep these agencies
with machinery intact as ‘tandy‘
by' agencies to meet emergencies
which may arise in the future.
“] hope we can get this bill
through immediately ‘and have
loans made available to farmers
before planting season.” 5
