NEW ENGLAND COLLEGE MEMBERS ARRANGE FOR MODEL LEAGUE MEETING

At its first meeting of the year, held Sunday at Smith College, and attended by representatives from almost every New England college, the Executive Committee of the New England Model League of Nations discussed plans for the year and made several important changes. The outstanding innovation is the creation of a Model International Labor Office, patterned after a similar body in the League, which will replace the Model Council, which has been held for the last few years.

In addition to the Labor Office, there will be three other committee meetings at the general meeting of the League to be held on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, March 9-11, 1933, at Smith College. The Economics Committee, which will meet along with the other two committees on Friday afternoon, March 10, will discuss tariffs and other obstacles to foreign trade, as well as the questions of the monetary standard and intergovernmental debts. The second committee will bring up the topic of disarmament, dealing mainly with the question of German equality. The Committee on Political Considerations, which last year discussed the Polish corridor, will argue on the Paraguayan-Bolivian dispute. On Saturday morning and afternoon, March 11, the plenary session of the general assembly will be held, at which reports of the three committees will be read, and final action on their resolutions taken.

At the meeting last Sunday, applications were filed by the various colleges for the countries which they desire to represent. Last year, the French, Siamese, and Chilean delegations were composed of Harvard men. The Harvard applications this year include Great Britain, Paraguay, Bolivia, Siam, China, Denmark, Australia, Nicaragua, Cuba, and Panama; three of these countries will probably be assigned to Harvard.

The next meeting of the Executive Committee of the League, which includes two Harvard representatives, W. S. Salant '33, and M. A. Hoffman '34, will be held on Wednesday, January 11, 1933, at New Haven. Another meeting will probably be held later at Wellesley.
