ton. Discussion Rages
At Phi Meeting
Over War Issues
Heated discussion was in evidence
at the regular meeting of the Philan
thropic Assembly last night when the
members debated two bills dealing
with war problems.
The first bill asked that the war
be financed by taxation entirely do
ing away with war bonds. , In intro
ducing this bill, E. O. Brogden said
that in continuing the policy of selling
war bonds, another inflation period
after the war "would come because so
many people and banks would have
extra money to spend and invest". He
also said that the interest on the
bonds is "terrific" and it would be
simpler to get money to finance the
war by taxation.
The main objection to this proposal
was that industry and people could
not do their best work if high taxes
were fronting them. People would
be forced to borrow money to pay
their taxes and this would throw the
majority of the people into debt.
The second bill presented by E. O.
Brogden stated that the General As
sembly do something about the ruling
recently put into effect by the public
instruction authorities doing away
with foreign languages as a require
ment for graduation from high
school. Arguments for this bill
brought out that foreign languages
help a great deal in the study of En
glish and that more people are needed
who understand other languages.

By Bob Levin
A 16-man joint Army, Navy and Ma
rine Corps enlistment board, headed by
Captain G. E. Pilgrim, will visit Ca
rolina all day tomorrow to hold physi
cal and mental examinations for all
reserve units and conclude the day
with a mass induction ceremony. .
Announced yesterday by W. D. Per
ry, head of the bureau of war informa
tion, the board will draw its enlist
ments from the ranks of the 400 stu
dents on campus who are not yet en
rolled in a reserve branch.
Examinations for the Army enlist
ed Reserve Corps will be held in Room
310 Woollen gymnasium from 9 a.
m. until 5 p. m. tomorrow with Cap
tain Pilgrim, president of the board,
in charge and assisted by Sgt. James
Nash and Sgt. Williard Dunn.
Perry said that no examinations for
the Army Air Corps would be given
but that if enough students sign with
his office for the examination a spec
ial representative will come to the cam
pus before the Christmas vacations.

Over Student Day'
Declares Comer
as' well as students and faculty mem
bers.
It was learned late yesterdav that
Josephus Daniels, former American
ambassador to Mexico and now editor
of the Raleigh News and Observer.
will introduce the speaker. "Bard is
the first government official to come
to Chapel Hill who can really give a
factual report on the duties of the I
Navy department in time of war."
"International Student Day is not
so much a commemoration of something
that happened in Czechoslovakia, but
it is a declaration - a declaration of
the solidarity of students all over the
world," said Harry Comer in opening
the program at the YMCA supper fo
rum last night.
Lily T'ang, speaking for the Chi
nese students, declared it was "almost
impossible" to imagine the plight of the
students. "Almost all the universities
have been closed by the Japanese or
moved, inland to, free China areas.
There was no transportation to the in
terior, so the students walked, some of
them a distance of 10,000 miles. They
nave no equipment for conducting
classes. There are no books, papers,
not even a guarantee that classes will
be undisturbed by bombing.
Giving a few terse facts about the
European situation, Paul Kattenburg
pointed out the great need for help in
Europe. '""Most of the, Belgian and
French students are now either in
concentration camps or working in
German factories. Students and facul
ty in France and Belgian have openly
resisted Nazi, attempts to superimpose
neir own educational ideas on" these
universities.
Ed Ota, former Japanese American
student from Seattle, Washington, and
now a student at Guilford College, des
cribed the tragic plight of these stu
dents, most of them American citizens,
who had to give up their education be
cause of the war. In the University of
beattle alone there were 450 such stu
dents, and 20 faculty members who
were Japanese Americans. Much is be
ing done to relocate these students in
colleges not in jcoastal areas so that
they may finish their education.
