Columnist Talks On 'Crucial Days' To Local Groups

Dorothy Thompson, columnist for the Bell Syndicate and the New York Post, will speak on "These Crucial Days" before a New Lecture Hall audience at 8 o'clock on Thursday.

Sponsoring Miss Thompson's talk will be the College Zionist Society, the Harvard Forum, and the Radcliffe Zionist Organization.

Officers of the College Zionist group declared that they believe Miss Thompson's speech will include a discussion of the Palestine question.

A newspaperwoman since 1920, Miss Thompson travelled extensively in Europe during the twenties as correspondent and Chief of the Central European Bureau of the Philadelphia Ledger and the New York Evening Post.

From 1936 until 1941, she served as columnist and political analyst for the New York Herald Tribune.
