Evans ad dressed the meeting of the eco nomics 'seminar last evening on "The General Theory as an Ap proach to Economics." Evans stated ' thai all those elements of - the environment which help to provide, goods for meeting human needs are re sources human, natural, and cultural. " V " ' : Basic Problems "In the utilization of resources every human society is faced with certain basic problems which must be solved in some manner through individual and collective organization and ac tion," Evans stated. "One prob lem is the combination and con trol of resources so as to pro duce as many needed goods as possible and at the same time to give proper recognition to the influence of work and working conditions of those who labor," he remarked. . A second problem brought up by the speaker was the determi nation of the kinds and quanti ties oi various goods tnat are produced and their divisions among the- members of society for consumption. "The basic principle . of econ omy in resource utilization that the natural and technologi cal environments shall make the greatest possible contribution to the attainment of social object- ives," said Evans. Consequently it is necessary to assume a particular set of so cial objectives and a particular natural and cultural environ ment before concepts of social effectiveness can be formulated. "Economics, then, is the sci J? A 1 ' nt . ence oi tne enective use oi re sources through social organiza tion," he said. "It is a study of the phenomena of resource utili zation to Ihe end that, through understanding and control, so cial effectiveness in the produc tion, division, and consumption of goods may be achieved."

NAZI BISHOP SAID TO HAVE RESIGNED Rumor Reports Ludwig Mueller To Have Given Up Position In German Church. Berlin, Oct. 31. (UP) Un confirmed rumor here tonight stated that Reichsbishop Ludwig Mueller had resigned his position in the church government of the Nazi state because of growing dissatisfaction with his program for Nazification of the German church. The rumor followed an an nouncement that Bishop Hans Meiser of Bavaria and Bishop Theophil Wurh of Wurttenburg, both of whom have otraosed Mueller's - program, would re sume their posts tomorrow. Church Left Out It was learned from reliable sources that the re-mstatement of the two bishops was effected without, consulting the church government.

The first sign of the with drawal of the government from the church was, given when Au gust Jaeger, lay counsellor for the church government, resign ed his position last Friday.
