Friedrich Will Speak To Post-War Council

Ashmore Also to Address Group at Lowell Tonight

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Tonight's meeting of the Council on Post-war Problems will stress the practical aspects of the group's work. Carl J. Friedrich, professor of Government, will speak on the type of planning that can be of benefit, and Henry Ashmore, Nieman Fellow, will discuss public reaction to the sort of long range thinking the group is working on.

The meeting will be in the Lowell House Junior Common Room at 7:30 o'clock and is open to all interested.

It will in effect launch the main work of the Council. Particular emphasis in the program of the second half year is on the initiation of an intercollegiate movement to further thought on postwar problems.

Start of National Movement

The Harvard Council is taking the lead, in this movement through the publication of a magazine devoted to the study of the obstacles to a just peace.

The work of the Council during the next few months will to a large extent determine the character of the movement. In the Lowell House meeting main considerations that must govern this work will be outlined, the concrete program will be presented, and new members will be enlisted to carry on the work.

Professor Friedrich was chairman of the executive committee of the Council for Democracy and has done much work with planning agencies in Washington.
