COOPERATION OF U. S.
SOUGHT BY BRITAIN
London, Nov. 10 The closest
cooperation of the United States
since the World War was sought
by the British government today
as they advocated a "hand-inland"
policy in the Far East and
elsewhere in the various diplo
matic affairs.
The movement was believed
io have resulted as an outgrowth
of President Roosevelt's Chi
ago address on October 5. This
address encouraged Great Bri
tain to believe, the Washington
government might relax its tra
ditional policy of isolation.
In a speech at Birmingham
October 8, Prime Minister Ne
ville Chamberlain welcomed the
Eoosevelt plea for concerted ac
tion for peace. Last night -he
made another step in a speech
at Guildhall in which he called
for fuller British-American col
laboration.
Chamberlain spoke of United
States participation in the cur
rent far eastern peace confer
ence at Brussels as a. "first and
most valuable step toward "ful
fillment of the desire expressed
by President Roosevelt at Chi
cago for concerted effort by
-peace loving 'nations foi? sanc
tity of treaties and settlement
of differences by peaceful
means."
"We are convinced that closer
understanding and more com
plete community of purpose be
tween our two nations may do
much to assist the cause for
which the President has pleaded
and which also is nearest to our
hearts," Chamberlain explained.

POP QUIZ
By .
Bob Perkin
! During initiation last year
two fraternity pledges were
locked in a room and told they
could not : come' out until they
had divided - eight gallons of f
water equally into containers.
The containers at their dis-
posal " were an' eight' gallon"
bucket filled with water, arid
two empty buckets which could
hold three and five gallons re-'
spectively. '.
How could they divide the "
eight gallons so that they would
have-four in the eight gallon'
container and four in the five'
gallon container.
Answer to - yesterday's quiz: "At
first reading the series of negatives -in
the news story make it difficult
to understand, but the answer is that
the School , Board may now refuse to
hire a teacher unless she agrees not
to join the union. Accordingly it may
discharge her for breach of agree--ment
if she later joins the union.
It is the lack of a reversal of a
dismissal of a restraint which leaves
the School Board to act. It may there
fore deny the teachers anything it
choo'sesn connection with this problem.
