PROVIDENCE, R. I., April 29 (UP)--United States withdrawal from China and unqualified neutrality in all foreign wars is favored by American college students, incomplete tabulation of the Brown Herald poll indicated last night. Editors of the Brown University undergraduate daily initiated a poll of college students on the question of war and peace.

Willingness to fight if continental America were invaded was voiced by 68.2 percent of the 31,515 ballots from 101 colleges in 30 states. Only 12.9 percent said they would fight in no war the government might declare.

Optional R. O. T. C. was wanted by 60 percent, while 19.5 percent demanded the system be abolished. A military and naval policy of progressive disarmament was favored by 12,723 voters.
