The hosts will probably accompany their delegates to athletic contests, ad vise them concerning what Univers ity classes to attend and provide any suscellaneous information desired. In Ehort, their job will be -to so familiarize the Latin Americans with the campus in order that they will leave with a truthful impression of the nation and American college life, AH University students, on the other hand, will have the opportunity to knew and understand Latin Ameri cans.

Appearing before a joint session of the new Congress to report on the state of the union, the President was applauded loudly and often as he flayed the methods and motives of dictators, declared all-out aid to Great Britain, Greece, and China, and promised unrelenting gressors and sponsored by appeasers." In the opinion of veteran foreign affairs experts, he definitely launched the nation upon a foreign policy which, while not envisioning foreign alliances, puts the world on notice that this nation will never compromise with the doc trines of totalitarianism. ' . . President Roosevelt's appeal to Congress was praised by Administration supporters at .the capital and denounced by non-interventionists as another step toward war. The President's proposal to turn over billions of dollars worth of armaments to embattled democracies may be carried out under a plan giving the Army and Navy blanket authorization to make available whatever aid they deem ad visable, the United Press was informed tonight. The President put the nation on notice that he will ask Congress for new taxes to help finance the "multi-billion dollar defense program when he sub mits his budget message on Wednesday.
