LIVES AND PROPERTY
LOST IN CALIFORNIA
Los Angeles, March 3.
Southern California experienced
.a great loss in lives and prop
erty as a four-day storm culmi
nated into a heavy rainfall
which caused a flood considered
the worst in the history of this
section.
There was a strong possibility
that as many as 50 persons had
lost their lives. All methods of
.communication - train, tele-
. graph, plane, bus, and telephone
-except radio were discontin
ued.
At Long Beach, an undeterr
mined number of spectators
were washed into the ocean
when the bridge on which they
were standing collapsed. It was
estimated that 10 persons lost
their lives, s but winesses said
that more than 45 persons were
on the bridge at the time.
While at least 10,000 were
forced put of their homes, prop
erty damage mounted as houses
collapsed, highways sank, and!
merchandise was ruined.

XlOldS Opeil 'ForUItl
Speaking on the general sub
ject of "Concerted Action Ver
sus Isolationism as the Road to
Peace," National Communist
Leader Earl Browder condemn
ed isolationism, damned fascism,
and endorsed a nrnerram nf
peace, in his Memorial 3iall
speech before 1,100 persons last
night. '
Introduced by Harry F. Co
mer as "a native of Kansas and
still an American citizen," Brow
der stated emphatically that his
Communists "want to do every
thing in our power to prevent
the victory of fascism."" " ' ;
Open Forum i
During the open forum discus
sion following his speech Brow
der was asked whether he : in
cluded the Soviet union in the
category of democratic nations
that he had previously men
tioned. He replied that "wheth
er Russia is democratic or not, it
is peace loving, and the other
known democratic nations of the
world need its cooperation (if
they can get it and I think thev
can), in order to preserve
peace."
In giving his party's stand on
the subject of concerted action
versus isolation, Browder said.
j. iie posiuon oi my party, the
Communist party, has from the
beginning of this discussion
been definitely against isolation
and m favor of the path of con
certed acton."

Chooses To Intervene
One hundred people contro

North Carolina, and their juris
diction is supreme, unless the
legislature decides to step in
and call them to account. Thev
are the trustees, selected from
every section of the state and
headed by the Governor, who is
ex-officio chairman.
Their go-between is the Uni
versity f president, now Dr.
Frank P. Graham. He is ap
pointed by the trustees and ex
ercises two broad functions: to
interpret the faculty and all
subordinate to the faculty in the
life of the University in terms
oi proposed policies to the trus
tees; and to interpret and exe
cute the policies prescribed by
the trustees.
No Pay
The trustees receive no com
pensation, and must bear their
own expense while attending the
semi-annual session at Raleigh
in January and June each year.
Since questions frequently arise
that need immediate action
from the trustees, the 100 elect

In Custody For
"Failure To Pay
55
On failure to pay a fine
of five dollars imposed on
him in Recorder's court
Tuesday after being con
victed of perjury, Morten
Friedman, University
freshman, was left in cus
tody of the Chapel Hill po
lice department.
Friedman and Harold
Feldstein, another first
year man, were accused of
perjury after they and four
other students were tried
for violation of the state
hitch-hiking law last Jan
uary 18. When arrested for
bumming, the two students
gave the names of J. R.
Clement, Jr., and Jack E.
Thornton, two other Uni
versity students.
The six were released by
Judge L. J. Phipps without
costs on condition that they
publicize the offense. It was
not until January 29 that it
was discovered that Fried
man and Feldstein had
given false names when ap
prehended. One Third Of Chapel Hill's Fire
