Japanese Factors
in Far East Tension

«.. Stated hy Mgs. Dear.

Erection of ‘Manchoukuo State
in Invaded Manchuria Is
Cause of Friction





NAVAL PARITY DEMAND
OPPOSED BY AMERICA.



“The state of tension. which - exists
in the Pacific area today is in some
respects comparable to the critical
situation which existed there before
the Washington Conference of 1921-
22,” said Mrs, Vera M. Dean in intro-
ducing her lecture on Thunder in the

Far East, the last of the lectures to
be given under the. Anna’ Howard
Shaw Foundation. At that time, as
today, Japan was firmly entrenched on
the Asiatic mainland. She had es-
tablished a virtual protectorate over
Manchuria, wrung concessions from
China under pressure of the Twenty-
One Demands, and taken over German
rights and properties in Shantung.
The military party, which at that
time, as today, was dominant in Tokyo,
was seeking to establish an Asiatic
Monroe Doctrine, which conflicted
with the Open Door policy proclaimed
by the United States at the beginning
of this century.

Following several treaties about
naval armament and the maintenance’
of the status quo in the Far East, the
Washington naval treaty. was signed
in 1922. It fixed the naval armament
ratios at 5 for Great Britain and the
United States, 3 for Japan, and 1.67
for France and Italy. At the London
naval conference of 1930, it was de-
cided that this agreement would ex-
pire on December 31, 1936:

The ratios agreed on at Washing-
ton conferred on Great Britain, the
United States and Japan naval su-
premacy for eaeh in its own sphere of
influence. Japan’s naval supremacy

was further confirmed by the United

States’ abandonment of the vast naval

program it-had projected after the
“World War, and. by an agreement
among the three powers to maintain
the status quo with regard to naval
bases in the Pacific. The powers fur-
ther agreed to use their influence for
the purpose of effectively establish-
ing and maintaining the Open Door
principle throughout Chinese terri-
tory.

The settlement reached at Washing-
ton remained unchallenged until Sep-
ember, 1931, when the Japanese army
imvaded Manchuria and set up_ the
ppet state of Manchoukuo under the

Hobbes’ Philosophy
’ Based on Materialism









Dr. Veltmann Says Corporeality
of Reality, Materiality of
Bodies Postulated



EVERYTHING IS MOVING



“All reality is corporeal; nothing
but material bodies and their attrib-
utes exist; and all is in motion.”
These were the fundamental doctrines
of Hobbes’ philosophy, which Dr.
Veltmann explained in the Common
Room on Thursday, November 15, as
the link between‘ancient and modern
materialism.

Hobbes postulated a continuity of
matter, while the Atomists donceived
infinite numbers of atoms in an infi-
nite void as the principles of the uni-
verse. Yet in spite of this radical
difference, the two philosophies have
many essential likenesses. Just as
only corporeal, material substance
possessed reality for Hobbes, so only
corporeal atoms moving in the void
possessed reality for Democritus.

As Hobbes described original na-
ture, it is a continuum of matter with-
out form, an aether fluid filling all
space. Physical matten is made up of
corpuscles or minute particles, unlike
atoms in that they are infinitely di-
visible both geometrically and physi-
cally. A certain resistance prevents
them from dividing continually, but
the possibility of such division exists.
These corpuscles are form modifica-

Even those of us who have never

olitics have many reasons to appre-
ate the work it does. It gives us,
‘rectly, every Tuesday evening, Dr.
pnwick’s interesting and thoroughly
lightening talks gn current events.

e, not merely the specialized stu-

rtment of Economcis and Politics.

When we realized how much more
teresting the Shaw lectures had

East than we faa ever hoped to
ow, we began to investigate what]

br must keep *up with every modern

trict and circuit courts. Bryn Mawr
has no record of these district and
circuit court decisions, and both ‘pro-
fessors and students have to go into
town to read’ them.

To reach International Law proper-
ly, the department needs a full set of
the publications of the League of Na-
tions and the Permanent Court at The
Hague, as well as of the International
Labor office. The Bryn Mawr Politics
Department wants to keep up to date;
it wants to handle contemporary mate-
rial, not to trespass on the History
Department. In order to be modern,
jit must receive the reports of the or-
ganizations that are gathering modern
material.

--If the professors in the Politics De-
partment are to do research, which is
essential for the stimulation of the’
students, it is impossible for them to
read through every report of every
international, national, and legal or-
ganizetion, to find their facts. There

Marriner Describes
Romanticist Music

Field, Schubert, Schumann Are
Exponents of Inspiration,
Personal Spirit

NOCTURNES INVENTED

et



“Today we leave the Classical era
and enter the colorful field of the Ro-
manticists, which extends from _ to-
day’s composers, Field, Schubert, and
Schumann; through Mendelssohn,
Weber, Chopin, and Liszt,” said Mr.
Guy Marriner in his fourth lecture-
recital in the series given at the
Deanery every Tuesday afternoon, af-
ter playing Schumann’s Wiedmung
as an introduction. Freer inspira-
tion, less restriction in form, and a
personal spirit, emotional, imaginat-
ive, and inventive, distinguish this per-
iod from the_ preceding Classicism.
Programme music was developed,
wherein suggestive titles were given
to each piece, in contrast to absolute,
or pure, music.

The causes of this signal change in
music were in part the social changes,
the French Revolution, the Polish
fight for liberty, the new democracy,
the new literature, and a new love of
nature. A _ spontaneous campaign
against Classicism broke the bonds of
convention and produced a fresh and
self-conscious art. In the first half
of the nineteenth century there were
many innovations, many of them un-
der the influence of Bach, including
the replacement of the sonata by the
étude, new varieties of key relation-
ships, contrasts in harmony,——lyri¢
tunes, and new rhythms, all of which
gave a poetic beauty and idealism to
the expression of emotion and the va-
rious aspects of nature.

The first composer of this great
movement was John Field (1782-
1837), an Irishman whose life and
Works are little known today. After a
wretched childhood, he studied in Lon-
don under Clements and toured Eu-
rope playing Bach. He settled in
Russia, where he fell into neglect,
and after wandering over Europe was
found dying in a Naples hospital by
Russian friends, who took him_ ‘to
Moscow, where he died. He invented
the nocturne, or night song, whose in-
timate and delicate nature influenced
Chopin, who broadened the form, Mr.
Marriner played one of Field’s ex-
quisite nocturnes, the A Major, Num-
ber 5, to illustrate the Romantic inno-
vations.

Franz Schubert,’ the fourteenth
child of a schoolmaster, was born in
Vienna in 1797, when Beethoven. was
27 years old. He learned music from
his father and a choirmaster and lived
throughout his 31 years in abject pov-
erty, often without the money to buy
even the paper on which to write his
compositions. For his 1,100 composi-
tions he received practically no money,
so that he had to beg support from
his friends, and after his death his
manuscripts were valued at $1.50. At
17 hé became a school teacher, but
even this gruelling profession could
not kill his inspiration. He loathed
duty and teaching, yet he remained, in

4spite of all his hardships, a visionary

full of daring and romance. He was
the most spontaneous genius the world
has ever known, for, although with-
out training, he turned everything to
pure music. He constantly improvised
with no delays, sketches, or revisions,
and in two days, one summer, he
wrote fifteen songs. He was obsessed
with a desire to compose, and al-
though he wrote many, lovely sym-
phonies, his medium remained: song.
,after_a walk, he met-a-friend.
in a tavern with a copy of Shakes-
peare, and happening to reed “Hark,
hark, the lark!” he composed the im-
mortal song on the back of a menu.
At 18 he wrote the Erlkénig from
Goethe’s poem, which is a great song
not only because of its dramatic qual-
ity, the youth of its composer, and its
moduiations and harmony, but chiefly
because of the contrast of the human

of death with the real death at

end, After explaining the story
of’ this epic song, Mr. Marriner play-
ed a tran of it.

Conference Debates
Chinese Communism



Possibility of Economic Boycott
Against Japan Is Unlikely
For Trade Reasons



NAVAL RATIO DISCUSSED



At the final conference with Dr.
Vera M. Dean held on Tuesday af-
ternoon in the Deanery, a group of
students followed out the ideas which
she had advanced in her speech on
Thunder in the Far East. The first

point discussed was the development
of Communism in China. Is it a result
of foreign agitation, or is it a product
of natural conditions in China? At
first in 1919 it was much influenced
by Russia, -particularly because of
the friendly feeling between the two
couytries induced by the Soviet re-
nunciation of the unilateral treaties
giving special privileges to Russians
in China,

There had been little party activity
in China prior to the 1911 revolution,
but by 1921 there were two parties
in China, the Koumintang (National-
ist) Party and the Communists: The
latter group carried on underground
propaganda until 1924 when they be-
came allied to the Koumintang as a
kind of radical left wing. For the
next three years there was a very
close and friendly association with
Russia, and Communism spread rap-
idly throughout Southern and Central
China under the direction of Michael

Gertrude Stein Says

Poetry Is Loving _--
Name of Anything

Nouns Are Never Interesting,

But Verbs Are, Since They
Can Be Mistaken.

QUESTIONS MARKS ARE
REVOLTING, UNPLEASING







“Prose is the emotional balance of
paragraphs and the unemotional bal-
ance of sentences; prose is a combi-
nation of these two balances that is
neither,” while “Poetry has to do with
vocabulary, just as prose has not; po-
etry is really loving the name of any-
thing.” The distinctions between the
balances, vocabulary, and grammar
of poetry and prose formed the basis
of Gertrude Stein’s lecture last Wed-
nesday on Poetry and Grammar, her
favorite lecture, and a lecture not de-
livered heretofore in the United —
States.

Words have to do everything in
poetry and in prose, but they use dif-
ferent methods, the one, nouns; the
other, pronouns. A noun is the name
of a thing. Names do nothing to
anything. Therefore why should the
writer use nouns? -If he feels some-
thing inside of a thing he should not
call it by its name. If a noun is
used, an intensity of feeling for the

is necessary to justify its use. “Nouns
are completely not interesting. Bhe
same thing is true of adjectives, Ad-
jectives affect nouns and therefore are
not interesting. The first thing that
anyonestakes out of everything are
adjectives,” declared Miss Stein.

She continued in her analysis of
grammar by commenting: “Verbs and
adverbs are more interesting. It is
wonderful how many mistakes they
can make. Besides being able to be
mistaken and make mistakes, they are
on the move.. That is the reason why
anyone Gan be interested.” Preposi-
tions only can make more mistakes
than verbs and adverbs and therefore
Miss Stein declared she liked them
best of all.

Articles are interesting as nouns
and adjectives are not because they
do what a noun might do if it were
not unfortunately the name of some-
thing. An article is alive just as a
pronoun is a “delicate and _ varied
something.” Conjunctions similarly
are not dull because they work and as
they work, they live.

Miss Stein does not like to write
with nouns and adjectives. Pronouns
are not so bad as nouns because they
cannot have adjectives to go with

Photographs Show Campus Vale of Beauty
Full of Flowering Trees, Lovely Buildings






The campus, always a thing of
beauty, has now become a joy for-
ever in’the Wolume of Bryn Mawr
photographs done by Ida W. Pritch-
ett. It is scarcely believable that
such a collection of pictures, each
one of which is excellent, could be
made of our well-known campus
scenes. There are the college build-
ings all large as life and twice as nat-
ural, but lovely beyond our remotest
recollection of them; they are all so
artistically and flatteringly photo-
graphed as to convince the unsus-
picious outsider that our college life
is nothing but a bed of roses.

Goodhart — a.homelike Common
Room, an impressive auditorium, and
the.Music Walk by night—would ar-
gue compulsory .attendance at all col-
lege functions. The series of the Li-
brary include the front, the reading”
room, the cloister walk, the cloister
garden, and Lantern Night; they are
all conducive to a renewed interest in
study, with rounds of meditative pac-.

The halls of residence all look as if
Spenser. Merion, for example, looks

like a veritable bower of bliss. Be-
sides these views, there are also to
be found the scenes of special col-
lege festivity: Garden Party, Com-



mencement, and the May Day Pro-
cession, in all of their glory.
The out-of-door scenes are superb. _
The campus is so beautiful in odd
corners and in varying lights that it
would seem well-nigh impossible to:
get a representative and a good col-
lection of views in photographs. The
impossible has been done: the vista
through Pem Aroh shows the _ ex-
quisite play’ of sunlight and shadow
through, the leaves, the snow scene
down the main cross-campus_ path
records the quiet and blanketed ap- .
pearance of Bryn Mawr in the win-
ter, a_picture of the Japanese Cherry
Trees and one-of a view across the
hockey fields shows the campus in
full spring flower, and to top off this
array, the scene in the Deanery gar-
den gives the peculiarly exotic sang
fect that achieves by its
arrangement and decoration.
The ‘collection is really complete:
no more pictures could be demanded
of Miss Pritchett. More might be
wished for, because the present one!
are so beautifully and. artistica
done. The artist came to her
well-equipped both by training an

"|| Reason is treason





We Rise to Suggest

One of the most striking lacks that has occurred to us in con-
sidering life and college and the undergraduatés is the absence in
Bryn Mawr of what is technically called an “orientation” eourse. We
understand that an orientation course is a series of lectures given to
Freshmen by representatives of every department. in college on the
content and character of the courses given in that department. In
_ other words, the Freshmen are enabled to see usually the Head of
every department in college and to hear him or her describe exactly
what the courses in that department are like.

We believe that an orientation course would be of inestimable value
in aiding the Freshman to decide what courses she wants to take.
We, for instance, arrived in college with the idea that Archaeology was
a dry and dead subject dealing with mouldy articles dug up from the
ground by graybearded, parchment-skinned scholars, and that a curse
infallibly pursued anyone who indulged in this grave-robbing pastime.
‘We were not long in Bryn Mawr, however, before we began to hear
that Archaeology is one of the most fascinating subjects in the world,
and, far from being dry and dead, is constantly changing and filled
with exciting discoveries. We also believe, however, that we discovered

Freshmen who were taking Archaeology and that it might well have
been many a year before we were disimbued of our erroneous ideas of it.

We believe this because we have been pleasantly surprised by
many courses we have taken in the expectation of not enjoying them
any too much, and because we have liad considerable trouble in making
up our minds about just what courses we wanted to take and_also
4 about what, if anything, we wanted to major in. If it had been our
lot to hear a description of what was studied in all. the courses in col-
lege, and to know at the beginning of our careers exactly what material
Economics and Psychology as studied at Bryn Mawr really contain
and how that material is treated, we would have had considerably less
difficulty in making up our minds what we wanted to take. The Dean’s
office would have been relieved of the trouble caused by our numerous
decisions to drop a course after the first two lectures because it did
not treat of the material we had expected it would.

We therefore recommend for serious consideration the ‘possibility
of giving an extia-curricular, or even a required curricular, orientation
course to the Freshmen. It is really more imperative, to our way of
thinking, that the Freshmen should be given some idea of what all the
college courses are like, so that they would not be floundering around
in a hazy attempt to take what they hear their best friends describe as
swell courses, than that they should learn a few isolated facts about
proper speech or proper carriage.





The Making of Students

Within the past week the news and views of the college have
undergone significant change. Gertrude Stein’s lecture stimulated
thought and discussion to such an extent that it precipitated unprece-
dented activity on campus. In addition to being a stimulus to thought,
the lecture also gave“us a point of view on and an appreciation of
modern literary forms that we could never have gleaned from mere
reading.

Most lecturers available to college audiences, if they are good at
all, succeed in impartifg and in correlating information. Few lecturers
give the undergraduate the opportunity of thinking for herself under
the stimulus of an arresting idea or of coming to appreciate a force
and a personality in modern circles, either governmental or literary.
This Gertrude Stein accomplished. She was already well known to
the college for her reputation and for her influential work in modern
prose and poetry, but in addition she explained to her audience the},

Puney. which is the basis of her work and gave thereby the basis for
oe iate and intelligent debate on the distinguishing elements in her
books and in works ci ligr contemporary writers. She made an
immediate and a lasting impression upon the college: everyone who
. attended either reversed his opinions or felt them confirmed. |

Movie Review

There are no. words of praise suffi-
ciently new and arresting to describe
Gentlemen Are Born, starting this
Saturday at the Stanton in Philadel- |,
phia. It is produced and acted with
a sincerity and earnestness, a balance
between tragedy and humor, a choice
of significant detail to convey an en-
tire mood or action, by one movement

{org sture, and..a- fa‘thfulness to reul-

ity that make it a truly great movie.
It.is the-story of the first*year after
they leave college in the lives of four
boys, and it is with complete truth
that we say that the boys themselves
and the things that happen to them
are so real, so possible and probable,
and become so utterly a part of the
lives of the people watching them that
this movie ceases to be a movie at all
and becomes part of the spectator’s in-
dividual experience.

Gentlemen Are Born opens with a
group of four boys waiting to go to

. |graduation, and promising each other

in the time-honored manner among un-
dergraduates that the one who is to
be an, architect. will build the others’
houses for them, that the newspaper
reporter will write up their successes,
that the stockbroker will invest their
money, and that the athlete will coach
their college’s team to victory. They
are shown graduating before the us-
ual ivy-covered tower, and the last
scerie at the end of the movie shows
again the next year’s graduating class
standing before the same tower with
a fade-in of the four boys in the orig-
inal class standing there just as they
had done a year ago. The tragedy
of contrasting their hopes as they
graduated with the memory of what
has happened to them in the interven-
ing year is almost unbearable.

Tneir struggles to find a job, which
force them all into miserable living
conditions and semi-starvation, are
appallingly real and applicable at the
present time. . The architect succeeds
in getting married and becoming a
father on not a cent, the reporter
finally gets engaged to a rich girl
who loses all her money and decides
to face poverty with him rather than
a loveless but wealthy marriage, and
the athlete,~who-is the only one to
abandon his high purpose of finding
the job he wants, is eventually shot.
down on the street for stealing be-
cause he is hungry.

This all sounds as though the movie
were \unbearably tragic and _ depres-
sing, bttas a matter of fact it is not.
The dialogue is not only amusing and
very much like what boys actually
would say, but the boys themselves
never give up the ship and get a lot
of fun out of their vicissitudes. It is
the wealth,of small and amusing inci-
dents that build up their characters
and reveal the boys as concrete per-
sonalities through showing what they
do under all sorts of circumstances,
which makes the boys so real that the
audience knows and adores them by
the end of the movie. We shall never
forget the Italian orchestra that play-
od at the architect’s wedding, nor the
minister who said, all in one breath,
“TI pronounce you man and wife, Three
dollars, please.” Neither shall we
ever forget the landlady’s distrust of
the jobless reporter and _ architect
when they apply for rooms, nor her
instructions about the kind of behav-
ior she expects from her boarders. Lit-
tle scenes, such as the time the archi-
tect leaves a note for the reporter
that he is giving up their room be-
cause he intends to get married, and
in an ecstasy of jubilation the report-
er jumps into the bed and titkles him,
and the time when Smudge, the ath-
lete, gets into a prize fight for the
sake of the ten dollars pay, and the
reporter, who has been sent to cover
the fights, sees Smudge get knocked
out, are indelibly imprinted on our
memory. The crises of emotion are
built up to by a series of just such

jsmall scenes, each of them played

down to suggest more than they actu-
ally portray, but the crises are then
saved from becoming unendurable by
another small scene with a funny re-
mark or incident.

The actors and actresses could not
be better. Franchot Tone is the re-
porter and acts with a naturaliéss
and youthfulness that is completely
convincing. None of the other three
boys were known to us, but all or
them, and especially the athlete, act-
ed with the same sincerity as did
Franchot Tone. The small gestures
and insignificant remarks of the boys
are particularly true to life, and none
of the actors, as is usually done in c



{to



diculous. The girls were, we thought, —

not so well acted as the boys on the :
whole, but the rich girl to whom the -
reporter gets engaged, is unusually

attractive, and all the girls also are

‘played with perfect sincerity. It was

an unusually good feature of the movie

that all of the three boys who fell in

love fell for an entirely dissimilar

type of girl, and furthermore, fell for

just-the chosen in actual life.

We hope -that the college will turn”
out in full rorce and attend this movie.
It is not the kind of movie that will
appeal to people who have no connec-
tion with college boys and girls, and
runs a risk of failing in a few days e«
because of its lack of general appeal.
We do not mean to imply that it is not
an appealing movie, but it does not in-
dulge in rah-rah songs nor \vamp
scenes nor raccoon-coated laddies- out
on uproarious binges, so that it is not
at all what is usually referred to as
a “college” movie. Instead, it is a
real, unsentimental, straight edition
of what is likely to happen to any of
us and to any of the boys we know
when we. get out of college, and we
fear it is a little too well-done and
too sincere to be a tremendous hit. For
this reason, we advise going to see~it
as soon as it opens, because we per-
sonally hope to see it at least once
again, and we expect we will not be
alone among the second-timers,

FACULTY GAME ON 27TH



After waiting two years to achieve
‘a real decision in the annual field

hockey duel with Swarthmore, Var-

sity at. last had its| revenge when
* the Garnet was defeated on Satur-

day a Novembe tg 17th, by- the
decisive scor'

The game arta: off slowly as a
result of the general feeling. of tense-
ness on the part of both teams; but
with:the aid of the- unusual sound of
cheers from the side-lines and Var-
siy’s first tally, both teams. loosened

up and settled down to steady. easy

play. The Swarthmore forwards
seemed unable to get away for any
concentrated attempt to score, while
the team as a whole lacked sufficient
unity and cohesion to become a seri-
ous threat at any point in the game.

Varsity, however, was back in its
old stride and continually battered at
the Swarthmore defense. The for-
wards would have rung up more
points had it not. been for lapses in
stick work and control of the ball.
There was improved work when once
the striking circle had been reached
and at least one goal came as the re-
sult of rushing | in, following a shot
from the edge of the circle. Several
of the goals were made, nevertheless,
on long, hard shots which passed
through the opposing backs, but
which failed against stronger opposi-
tion. ‘

To. the backfield as a whole goes
well-merited . praise: for maintaining
a defense that was well-nigh im-
pregnable before the none too potent
Swarthmore forward line. It is diffi-
cult to pick out outstanding players
amongst the defense, but Marion
Bridgman and Elizabeth Kent were
especially excellent. Our rivals are
downed at last and the big game of
the season has been won. Hence
cheerio, and congratulations to Cary,
who has been given a place on the
All-Philadelphia third team, sand to
Kent, who made the fourth team.

There is no game this Saturday, |.

but the Faculty game comes on Tues-
day, the 27th. All out: for a hilarious
and exciting contest.

Perhaps it was Monday’s balmy
weather that filled the Bryn Mawr
second team with a happy-go-lucky
spirit which prevented them from
putting up an exceptional fight in
the game against the Germantown
Friends’ School Alumnae. No mat-
ter what tne cause, their playing was
not up to the standard they have set
during the season. The opposition
given by the G. F. S. team was not so
great that the second Varsity could
not have made a better showing; by a
little more team work and a _ little
more concentration on following up
their good passes, the Reserves could
have come nearer our expectations.
Although Bakewell, playing the out-
standing game of the day, placed the
ball in the goal for two tallies, this

made with any very noticeable fore-
sight as to just how tneir team-mates
were to help the ball toward the goal.

From the number of broken sticks
hurriedly tossed from the field by
the players of the Friends’ Alumnae
team, we at first thought that we
were to witness a great battle, but as
the play got into the second half it
settled into just anothsr game with
two or three nice clearing shots made
by the backs, and a limited number
of good dribbles from the forwards
as they took advantage of openings
in the opposition’s defense. Though
the general impress received by
the spectator seems not a very com-
plimentary one, there can be little
doubt but that the Bryn Mawr team
was confused by the fact that their
opponents did not consistently re-
main in their specified positions. One
hardly expects players to mark wan-
dering members of the other team,
and to cover their own positions, at
the same moment. The College team
has added another victory to its long
list, and it came through the game
without a. goal’s being made against
it. That is what results from the
underlying spirit that- is in the team
—a spirit which has not broken un-
der greater opposition.

Gertrude Stein Says
Poetry is Loving Names



Continued from Page One

them: they are not nouns—not the
name of anything—but ‘they represent
something. The names of people are
more interesting because they are not
the name of anything.

As the parts of speech have their
peculiar qualities of life and dullness,
so too do the marks of punctuation
vary in interest for Miss Stein. The
question mark is not interesting ex-
cept as “decoration or a brand on cat-
tle.” Miss Stein finds a question mark
positively revolting, unpleasing to the
eye and to the ear. It, like the noun,
is just the name of something: a
question is a question and the interro-
gation point only indicates the ask-
ing of a question.

Equally unnecessary are quotation
marks and the exclamation point.
They are obvious and uninteresting.
Of them she said, “At first I could
not use them, ahd now anybody can
and does see it that way.”

“For many,” Miss Stein remarked,
“the apostrophe has a general tender
insinuation. I cannot deny that from
time to time I use it to denote the
singular possessive.” Outside of that
use she finds it unnecessary and un-
ornamental, but she admits, “I cannot
positively deny that from time to time
I do put it in.”

As for the stronger marks of punc-
tuation used to denote pause _ in
thought or completion of thought, she
said, “When I-—first’ began writing I

‘Stein first wrote The

felt writing should goon. Hf so, what
had colons, semi-colons, commas, per-
iods and capitals and small letters to
do with it?” Physically, pauses are
inevitable. Periods, Miss Stein be-

|| lieves, may come to have 4 life of

their own: they look well-and stop-
ping need not interfere with thought.
The writer might use them arbitrar-
ily to interrupt his writing and thus
cause thenf*co have 4 lite of their
own. Of commas, the opposite is true:
they have no, life. “I have refused
them so often, I have become. indif-
ferent :” commas are servile, and their
use is not a use but a way of helping
the writer along, sibel him from
living as actively as he might live. A
comma makes something easy that is
easy enough if one likes it enough
without a comma: it is, in éffect, a
poor- period. One is always’ taking
breath and therefore that.is no reason
for ever using a comma to indicate
it.

Miss Stein finished her discussion of
the punctuation of prose by remark-
ing upon the use of capital and small
letters, “Anybody can do what they
please about that. They have nothing
to do with the inner life of a sen-
tence. It does. not make much dif-
ference.” She concluded that the
tendency was towards diminishing the
use of capital letters and that “Sen-
tences and paragraphs will be in-
evitably written; therefore periods
will be inevitably with us.”

The structural balance of prose, as
well as its punctuation, has undergone
considerable change of late. Sen-
tences are unemotional because the in-
telectuality in them defeats the emo-
tional element. Paragraphs, on the
contrary, are emotional. _When Miss
Making of
Americans she tried to break through
this limitation by writing sentences
as long as paragraphs. She even then
believed that “complications make
eventually for simplicity” and so. she
used dependent adverbial clauses for
their possible variation. In so doing
she felt she had not done anything;
she lost two things to make one. In
getting a new balance, not of the sen-
tence or of the paragraph, she got a
new balance of movement. - Sentences
had become something that was the
balance of the whole thing, in space.
This, then, is the balance of modern
prose.

What has poetry to do with prose?
In coming to avoid nouns a great
many things happen. In writing T'en-
der Buttons Miss Stein caused a revo-
lution by living in adverbs, verbs,
pronouns, adverbial clauses and con-
junctions. As for nouns, they are the
name of anything and ve nything is a
name: people use a name until it
means nothing or until they do not
care what it means,
of vocabulary we come to a finer dis-
tinction between poetry and _ prose.
Prose is the emotional balance of par-
agraphs and the unemotional balance
of sentences, and in that it is a com-
bination of these two balances that
is neither, it limits the use of nouns.

Poetry has to do with vocabulary
just as prose does not. Poetry has to
do with replacing the noun. Miss
Stein explained her theory by citing
an example, “When I say, ‘A rose is
a rose is a rose is a rose’ it is poetr}.

have all become alarmed and have in-
stituted trade barriers against Japan
in the form of. tariffs and quotas. Brit-
ish manufacturers of cotton cloth
have been particularly affected, since
in 1933 Japan’s export total for cotton
cloth for the first time surpassed that
of Great Britain. Recent friendly de-
velopments between the two countries,
however, suggest that in return for
British concessions on naval ratios
and British recognition of Manchou-
kuo, Japan might offer new opportuni-
ties for British exports to Manchuria.
This advance in Japan’s export
trade is due to two principal factors
—low production costs and deprecia-
tion of the yen. The-low production
costs in Japanese industry are the re-
sult of relatively low wages and lone
hours, but there is no evidence of the
social.dumping resulting from exces-
sively low wages and bad labor condi-
tions, which has been charged by
other countries. The depreciation of
the yen seems to be far more respon-
sible than low production costs for the
strides made by Japanese, exports. The
advantages enjoyed by Japan as a re-
sult of depreciation, however, should
normally prove but temporary. The
major threat to Japan’s export trade
will in the long run come from the
growth of local industries in areas
which are now important markets for
Japanese products.

Political friction between Japan
ana the Soviet Union on the one hand,
Japan and the United States on the
other, constitutes a source of poten-
tial dangér to world peace. The two
regions where Japan might clash with
the Soviet Union are Outer Mongolia
and Manchuria. Japan has made no
attempt to interfere with Soviet dom-
ination of Uuter Mongolia, but it has
protested that the Soviet Union has
established the “closed door” there.
Japan fears that Outer Mongolia will
eventually become part of the U. S.
S. R. and will then seek to absorb In-
ner Mongolia, which Japan regards
as its own sphere of influence.

tions which seemed inevitable in 1931

32, when Japan was completing its

jogéupation of Manchuria, has now ap-

parently been postponed. The Soviet
government has refused to recognize
Manchoukuo ‘and a series of .conflicts
have ‘arisen between the Soviet Unioi.
and Manchoukuo over the Chinese
Eastern Railway. In May, 1933, the
Soviet Union offered to sell its share
in the railway to Japan, and Japan’s
reply that all: negotiations must be
made with Manchoukuo may lead to
recognition of Manchoukuo by the Sov-
iets. Whether the Soviet Union, by
a voluntary surrender of the ‘Chinese
Eastern, can win assurance -against
Japanese aggression in Siberia and re-
tain the outlet on the Pacific for which
Russia has long struggled is a ques-
tion. But in the long run, the Soviet
Government, by withdrawing from
Manchuria, may gain the adherence of
the Chinese, who will be antagonized
by-Japanese control of Manchuria.
Most important of all, internationa’
alignments since 1932 have created a
situation unusually favorable to the
Soviet Union. Japan would find few
valuable allies but Germany today in
attacking the U. S. S. R., and the
identificatién of these two countries
against the Soviet Union, might result
in Soviet sympathizers venting on
Japan some of the hostility they feel
for Germany.

The issues which divide Japan and
the United States also are political.
The United States has refused to rec-
ognize Manchoukuo, on the _ground
that Japan’s invasion of Manchuria
violates the Washington treaties, and
has been unwilling to sign a new
treaty granting naval parity to Japan.
Should Japan receive parity, the Unit-
ed States, which has to maintain a
fleet both in the Atlantic and Pacific,
would be forced into a_ position of
inferiority.

The naval controversy reveals the
necessity for the United States to
clarify its policy in the Far East. T
we want to interfere in the Far East
whenever our. interests are affected,
we must realize that such interfer-
ence may involve us in war with
Japan, and we must therefore sup-
port a large and expensive naval build-
ing program. If we do not want war,
peace in the Pacific area might best be
preserved if the United States aban-
dons all attempts to achieve naval par-
ity or superiority, and bases its navy

attempting only to maintain a fleet
adequate to defend the Atlantic and
Pacific coasts. If we follow this pol-
‘ey of withdrawal, will American in-
terests be protected in the Far East?
If we co-operated in collective action

on the principle of territorial defense, |

with other natiens, as through — the
League, we might be in a better posi-
tion to avert the causes of war in the
Far East.

Personality Survey
Lewisburg, Pa.—One of the feat-
ures of the work of the Dean of Stu-
dents at Bucknell University is a
Personality Survey, which has been
put into effect this year and will be
applied to the present freshman class
and to every future class.

» Each student will be graded by
each of his professors on traits of per-
sonality such as ‘honesty, persever-
ance, initiative and intelligence.
There are 19 traits on which each
student will be graded. Upon each
trait he will be ‘given one of six
grades, For example, in grading a
student upon accuracy, the professor
has the option of choosing one of five
classifications, which run from the
first, “paid no attention at all to de-
tails,” to the fifth, “accurate almost
to the point of being ‘fussy.’ ”

sixth classification, “no opportunity
to observe,” will be used by profes-
sors who have had no contact with
the student whereby he can base his
grading.

The traits upon which the grading
will be made are as follows: accur-
acy, self-confidence, willingness to co-
operate, intelligence, initiative, per-
sistence, reaction to criticism, capac-
ity for leadership, ‘emotional stabil-
ity, oral and written expressive abil-
ity, enthusiasm, open-mindedness,
originality, productivity, personal ap-
pearance, honesty, humor, and judg-
ment and common sense.

Miss Park Discusses
Phila. Welfare Drive



President Park spoke of the Phila-
delphia Welfare Federation drive, in
chapel on Tuesday, November 20. The
drive is organized every year to take
care of numerous charities in Phila-
delphia, the Main Line, Delaware
County, and the Willow Grove sec-
tion.

The charities to which the drive con-
tributes make no religious or racial
distinctions, and receive no federal or
state relief funds. The Welfare Fed-
eration pays salaries only to the peo-
ple it employs for clerical work. It
maintains a social exchange register,
so that éach individual who is helftd
has a separate record and can be ade-
quately supervised.

_ The drive is setting out to raise
$3,700,000, of which $1,000,000 is to
go to hospitals, $200,000 to the dis-
trict nurses, and $800,000 to organi-
zations for child health and the pro-
tection of dependent children. The
rest goes to neighborhood houses, day
nurseries, and family relief organiza-

* tions, which are connected with the
schools, churches, and Boy and Girl
Scout groups.

Bryn Mawr is not pledged to give
any specified amount. Last year, we
gave $750, and the year before $1,500.
The Bryn Mawr fund is given by the
faculty, the staff, and the students to-
gether, and it is hoped that this year,
when the need is so great, the fund
will be larger than in 1982.

Hobbes’ Philosophy
Based on Materialism



Continued from Page One

tions of the materia prima, From such
minute particles, body is evolved.

“A body,” said Hobbes, “is that
which exists independently of mind
and is coincident with a part of—real
space.” Real space is the geometrical
figure of a body which determines the
finite space it occupies. Unoccupied
Space is: unreal. The essence of a
body is extension in real space, and
the four basic characteristics of a
body are: magnitude, figure, motion,
and consistency. The first three char-
acteristics were also used by the At-
omists to describe body, but they pre-
scribed absolute indivisibility instead
of consistency, which is mere resist-
ance. The Atomists also had a fifth
characteristic of body, that is, weight.
Hobbes did not belieye this to be an
intrinsic attribute.

Like the ancient ~-Materialists,
Hobbes thought that perceptions of!
these primary qualities were true cop-
ies of the originals, but that secon-
dary, sense qualities were phantasms
existing only in the mind. Even space
and time were entities of the imagi-
nation in his view.

Hobbes was diametrically opposed
to the Atomists in rejecting atoms,
as he believed that nothing was indi-

visible. He rejected likewise the void
in which atoms were supposed _ to
move. “How could you know void

was?” he asked. Infinity with re-
spect to extension and duration of

the world was equally incredible to
‘him,

Although he denied the possibility
of a void, which seems necessary for
motion, he believed’ firmly that mo-
tion was a reality. Motion produces
change and causes the accidental char-
acteristics of bodies. Since motion
cannot exist in a stationary plenum,
the plenum, or all nature, mus¢ be in
continual movement.

Motion itself, Hobbes defined as an
infinitesimal endeavor. The~ motion
of a corpuscle consists of an infinite
number of infinitely small impulses in
the least possible space in the least
possible time. By thus introducing
infinitesimals, he recognized the infin-
ity he so specifically denied. For the
relation of an infinitesimal to a finite
thing is the same as the relation of
a finite thing to infinity,

One failure of the theory that all
is in motion lies in its total inability
to account logically for anything sta-
ble. Yet Hobbes pre-supposes stabil-
ity in assigning definite characteristics
to body. In a fluid flux there is not
even any means of measuring motion,
as such measure requires a standard
at least relatively fixed. The endeavor
of opposite motions produces resist-
ance, which demands a stability in at
least some of the opposing corpuscles.
Yet there is no stability, no_ rest.
Hobbes’ idea of solid structure and
pure flux are flagrant contradictions,

Hobbes’ explanations of the individ-
ual body and soul were greatly influ-
enced by Harvey’s discovery of the
circulation of the blood. Life, said the
philosopher, must be the rhythmic pul-





sation of the blood through the body,
and death is the cessation of this
rhythmic flow. Hobbes’ soul is mere-
ly the behavior of the living body. As
there are no ingorporeal realities,
there can be no spiritual souls.

Perception and thought are only
modes of motion in the heart and
brain. All sense qualitieg; even space
and time, are subjective: Space and
time are more real because they have
objective counterparts.¢—If sensation
is a phantasm of the reaction of any
body in an external situation, it
would seem that phantasms are being
engendered on all occasions, and all
things experience sensation. . Since
the organs of perception are outward-.
ly directed, the phantasms of -sensa-'
tion cannot penetrate beyond the skin.
Therefore these phantasms must be lo-
cated in space, which is itself a phan-
tasm. It is obvious, said Dr. Velt-
mann, that this theory is ridiculous.

Since similarities in objects have
the same names, universal terms come
into being. But actually nothing con-
crete corresponds to these generalities.
No blueness exists, orily the individual
blue. A class is an abstraction with-
out a corresponding reality. There is
no meaning in universals ynless they
express the functional relationship be-
tween things. Such relationships are
as real, although not objectively so, as
the things, and similarity is an exam-
ple. The likeness in the features of
two people is an expression of a gen-
eral biological pattern that extends be-
yond the environment into the past
and future. Beyond the naming of
functional relationships, class terms







have ho meaning, and even with such
significance, they do not symbolize any
objective existences. But if the ob-
jective reality of a class is denied, the
objective reality of the human body
will ultimately have to be denied. For
the body is a class of cells, which are
classes of molecules. These are classes
of atoms; atoms’ are classes of elec-
trons, and these finally must be
classes of points, which are nothing.
There can be no individual objects
in nature if nature is a plenum, This
is a point to which Hobbes did not
intend his theory to lead.

Besides minor weaknesses, Hobbes’
doctrines are subject to the same vital
criticisms as Atomism. The first prob-
lem is: how can quantitative, ex-
ternally related particles of matter
account for organic life? A second
question is: how can quantitative mo-
tion of insensible particles result in
sensible qualities? Equally inexplica-
ble is the fact that a similar motion of
insensible parts is supposed to result
in feeling. Mere motion in the brain
fails also to account for visual pic-
tures of the world. It is impossible
to explain how the mind can distin-
guish fictitious phantasms from per-
ceptions of reality if both are disturb-
ances of the corpuscles of the mind.
Finally, mathematical reasoning, the
most stable and the purest activity of
the human intellect, cannot be stated
in terms of mechanistic ideology.



The creation of a college police
course for University of Wichita
(Kan.) is being considered by offi-
cials of that institution.

‘Marriner Describes

x Romanticist Music



Continued from Page Une

It is little wonder that, with such
a flood of spiritual energy and so full
a body, Schubert died so young. But
today he is loved everywhere, not only
as a musician, but as an intimate and
human friend, who translated his own
sorrows into enchantmené for others.
To conclude Schubert Mr. Marriner
played by request the immortal Sere-

' nade.

- Schumann, the composer and writer
(1810-1856), loved the fanciful and
the dramatic and was deeply imbued
with the Teutonic philosophy of Jean
Paul. He organized the paper, Neue
Zeitschrift fur Musik, and a society
of young friends to combat the Philis-

-tinism of the superficial and mediocre

music of the time. He dared ‘to pro-
test against the routine and supported
the new movement by writing vigor-
ously on the new music, seeking new
composers, and composing new music
himself. His dual nature is revealed
not only in his music, but also in the
two pen names he used: Florestan
for the rough, and stormy side, and
Eusebius for the poetic. He was in
a@ growing state of nervous and. moral
anguish, and became so distracted that
he threw himself into the Rhine and
later died in an asylum in Bonn.

His great influence lay in battling
the conventional and mediocre with ro-
mantic pieces, whose titles stimulate
the imagination of the hearer. Al-
though his work reveals some defects
in form, it possesses great beauty,
rhythm, harmony, color, and complex
counterpoint in the interwoven parts.
By his music for children he also had
great influence in the new understand-
ing of a child’s point of view.

In conclusion Mr. Marriner played
Schumann’s Opus 17, a Fantasia in C
Major. At the time he was in love
with the daughter of his teacher but
eould not marry her, and this thwart-
ed love produced this composition.
There is no conciseness of form, but
the three movements are. unified by

them. He originally intended the three
movements to have names which sel-
dom appear on: programmes today:
the-first movement, allegro, Ruins;
the second movement, Moderato, Tri-
umphal Arch; and the third movement,
andante, Starry Crown.



Conference Debates
Chinese Communism



Continued from Page One

Borodin. Then with the rise to domi-
nance of conservative elements within
the Koumintang under the leadership
of Chang-Kai-Shek, there was a break
with the Communist wing and an ac-
tual severance of diplomatic relations
with the Soviet Union.

In 1929 Communism re-emerged in
China, but this time as a more or less
indiginous product, not directly inspir-
ed by Moscow. Communism is espe-
cially strong in the agricultural reg-
ions of the South. There has been
no extensive nationalization of the
land as in the U. S. S. R., but there
are many things about the organiza-
tion of Chinese Communism . which
closely resemble the Soviet system.
Considerable work has been done
among the industrial workers in the
more populous centers such as Shang-
hai and Canton, but, as was the case
in Russia, considerable difficulty has
been experienced in getting co-opera-
tion between the two groups.

The growing strength of the Com-
munists in China has had repercus-
sions on Chinese foreign relations.

LUNCHEON 40c - 50c



“certain tones running throughout



Quite a few pbservers feel that the
Nanking Government was more inter-
ested in ending the Communist men-
ace than in keeping the Japanese out
of Manchuria. In other words the
government has been willing to in-
dulge in a civil war which has divided
China into hostile camps, rather than
to, maintain a united front against the
encroachments “of Japan upon China’s
sovereign rights. Thus, in this sense,
the Nanking Government has’ aided
Japan in its designs. .

‘Mrs. Dean then asked ‘ne group to
discuss what other countries are go-
ing to do about the continued spread
of Communism in China?’ Suppose
Japan, fearing the effect this spread
would have on her people, started to
take measures about it. Shall we all
sit by and let her do it? It was sug-
gested that this might possibly be
done, provided Japan had agreed be-
forehand that she was not: going to
gain any further territorial advan-
tages from the venture. The objec-
tion to this proposal was that such
an arrangement constituted a tacit
recognition of Japan’s. Manchurian
activities, and no one wants to do
this. Of course, the Nine Power
Treaty can be invoked, but this will
do no good unless followed up by some
more stringent measures such as an

On a proposal which is bound to in-
jure an already poor export trade.
It was generally felt that if_it-came to
a choice between a Communist China
and a Japdnese controlled China, the
latter would probably be preferable,
since Japan would take care to secure
the foreign trading interests in China
on which she depends greatly.

There was ‘considerable discussion
about the prospect of Japan using
force to make further gains in China
or to combat the effects of a boycott.
It was generally felt that other na-
tions, such as the United States and
especially Great Britain, would not
wish. to fight for their interests in
China, but would wish to hold a con-
ference and, if necesSary, to make
certain concessions to Japan. One of
Japan’s most pressing problems is her
growing population and this internal
problem is instrumental in creating
certain of her foreign policies. Giv-
ing Japan more land will do no good,

for the Japanese have been very un-

both Korea and Manchuria.

The problem of naval ratios was
next discussed.- This issue is indis-
solubly associated with the political |
and economic points of controversy.
The recent proposal by Japan for a
5-4-4 ratio is not made entirely from
an altruistic point of view that Britain
needs more ships because she has so.,
many distant colonies and trade routes
to protect. It is aimed at dividing
Great Britain and the United States

Japan were granted theoretical par-
ity. Mrs. Dean said that she believed
that there would not be an immedi-
ate naval race as that would do no one
any good at all.:
