British Trade Conclave Set
London — (U.P.) Britain disclosed today it is opening trade negotiations next month with two Iron Curtain nations—Poland and Hungary.
It also coincided with news from another direction.
Moscow radio, quoting the Soviet magazine Trud, said today:
The disclosure followed Prime Minister Winston Churchill's call in the House of Commons last night for more East-West trade.
"The best way to achieve a relaxation of international tension is by expanding international trade."
Britain has not traded with Hungary since 1949, when relations were broken off following the jailing on trumped-up charges of Edgar Sanders. British business man who since has been released.
Officials said any agreements reached with Poland and Hungary would not involve strategic ma-
portals because of the West's ban on the movement of such supplies to the U.S.
Both Poland and Hungary want more industrial goods, raw materials and consumer goods. Hungary's Ministry for Internal and Foreign trade will send a special mission to London for the talks.

To This Freshman— A Rule Is a Rule
The man wanted to check out a book at the education library. The freshman girl, remembering her instructions, refused to issue the book until he could show an identification card.
He tried another approach. "I don't need an ID card, since I'm a University employee." The freshman insisted that rules were rules.
The man kept arguing. Gradually she weakened and finally allowed him to take the book with no identification card, only his word. The man hurried out, clutching the book.
He was Donald Anderson, dean of men.

Board of Regents Considers Bids
Bids for construction of a new women's dormitory and rear service drives and parking area for the new science building are being considered today by the board of regents, said Keith Lawton, administrative secretary to the chancellor.
An unidentified donor has agreed to pay the difference between the bond proceeds and the cost of the building. Whether the hall will be used for freshmen or upper class women has not yet been decided.
To be known as Grace Pearson hall, the building will be placed between Douthart hall, now under construction, and the Faculty club The three-story building will measure 93 by 30 feet and will be almost identical with Douthart hall. Raymond Coolidge, Topeka, is the architect.
The board of regents is also considering bids for the sale of $100-000 in revenue bonds as partial financing for the dormitory. The building will house 48 University women, and it will not be a scholarship hall.
The apparent low bid for general construction is $121,467 from M. W. Watson company, Topeka. The Brune Plumbing and Heating company, Lawrence, gave apparent low bids of $19,937 for plumbing and heating and $3,779 for electrical work and appliances.
With a base bid of $89,330, the Kansas Construction company. Lawrence, was apparent low bidder on construction of the parking area, rear service drives, and drainage system for the new science building.
of Journalism and University Extension the Institute is bringing together public relations practitioners connected with industry, trade and professional associations, and government bureaus.
Mr. Bernays defined thinkers as "men whose profession or main function is in the realm of ideas and study" and doers as "executives and administrators, men whose function primarily is to implement ideas, to set forces in motion, to direct activity . . .." "Only as deers and thinkers work together, or when both characteristics appear strongly in the same individual, are the greatest advances made in human society."
"Regrettably these two groups too often work in severely separated components," Mr. Bernays said. "By and large they have little confidence in each other. Thinkers are regarded as long-hairs, egg heads and double domes by doers. Doers are go-getters, opportunists and money-grabbers according to the thinkers.
Mr. Bernays emphasized that since public relations as a profession embraces three fields of action—adjustment, information, persuasion it is ideally fitted to bring about greater approach between the thinkers and doers.
The public relations counsel, according to Mr. Bernays, can let the doers know of the specialized knowledge that is available for their use; they can exert their tried and proven techniques of persuasion to get their clients to work closer with specialists; finally, they can project the doers' problems to the understanding of the thinker.
Such action, said Mr. Bernays, will enable public relations to "play an even more useful, positive role in strengthening our society and the 'ree world."
