IRC Presents Panel Group; Will Debate US Neutrality The International Relations club tonight will have Phi, Di and Debate council and squad members as special guests at an 'informal, open "bull session" discussion at 7:30 in Institute of Government building. Principal discussion topic will be "Should the US Repeal its Neutrality Act?," which may extend if time al lows, to argument over advisability of immediate war declaration and our part in post-war plans. Entire program is dedicated to open debate among all students attending, rather than to dis cussion among a restricted group of delegates of the four organizations. First "Bull Session" x . This meeting is the first of a series of IRC "bull sessions" to which vari ous associations on 'the Carolina cam pus will be invited. Tonight's event replaces the usual bi-weekly Monday night asembly. IRC officials changed the schedule so that this special session would not conflict with Monday night's CPU speech. Purpose in IRC's , invitations to al lied campus groups is to stimulate in ternational thinking, organization by organization, and to promote addition al cooperation among IRC, Di, Phi and Debate council and squad. To insure democratic preparation for tonight's discussion representatives of the current affairs groups were elect ed to a governing committee.

The sinkings, coupled with the tor pedoing of the US destroyer Kearny last Friday with the lost of 11 seamen and the wounding of ten others stirred the capitol anew and there were an gry demands in Congress for mani fold actions.

LONDON, Oct. 21 (UP) The full force of the German blitzkrieg an estimated 25,000 tanks, 2,000,000 me chanized troops and three-fourths of the German air force have been beat en off the Moscow approaches for the third day, the Moscow radio reported tonight and the fourth month of the Republican Chief to Make Hurried Visit Minority Leader Asks Elimination Of Open Forum Minority leader of the House of Representatives, the Honor able Joseph W. Martin, Jr., will address the student body Friday -evening at 8 o'clock, Ridley Whit aker, CPU chairman announced yesterday. Wasting no time while bouncing back from the last disastrous speaker year, the Union head announced that the chairman of the Republican party would be available for a short speech during a hurried trip through North Carolina. No Open Forum No indication was given yesterday as to what Martin would say in his ad dress Friday evening. It is known that Martin asked the Union to dispense with its usual question period because of the shortage of time. He is expected to leave the Hill shortly after a re ception in his honor in Gra"ham Memor ial following the speech. Martin, a native of Massachusetts, has been characterized by opposition leaders on many occasions as a "man of character .-. . not a blind partisan." Heading the Republican party, and di recting strategy from the floor, Mar tin is generally credited with 'whip ping a frazzled minority into a tough opposition." Advocates National Unity . Though " standing on a Republican ticket, he has backed Administration policies insofar as strongly advocating unity, within the country, and ex pressing a strong desire to defeat the Axis. Still vigorously on record as oppos ing the New Deal reforms, he has back ed some, fought others, and gained the complete respect of Washington cor respondents who recently picked him as the ablest representative in the House. Political observers maintain Martin's successful leadership of the Republican minority in the House comes not so much from a "driving force" but from an ability "to lead." Men working with Martin within the inner circles of the party claim that a typical Martin statement will never come from the "boss." It will, they say, come from the captain of a team. It will never ' bark out "go," but quietly state, "Let's rfioit."
