Recommendations which were drawn up this week at pre-conference meetings will be presented before the assembly. Following discussion of each of these issue and addition of any desired amendments, a vote by nations will be taken.

Dr. Herman Chubb, professor of political science, will speak on the value of the conference at the close of debate. The conference, sponsored by the International Relations club and the Forensic league, was held for the first time last year after Professor Chubb and student representatives for the University attended a regional meeting of International Relations clubs at Emporia, and brought back the idea of a conference on the K.U. campus.
Approximately 200 students will participate in the discussions, and colleges and high schools in the tri-state area will be able to attend as well as K, U, students.
At the final pre-conference meeting Thursday, delegates adopted the
U. S. resolution for international control of atomic energy, which provides that information on the atomic bomb will eventually be turned over to an international commission.
ONE. Should the U. S. destroy its atomic stock pile if Russia cedes its veto power over U. N. inspection and sanctions?
Questions adopted for discussion before the general assembly are:
TWO. Should the veto power of the Big Five apply to international supervision and inspection of the development of atomic energy within nations?
THREE. Should sanctions for violations of atomic regulations be automatic—that is, not subject to veto by any of the Big Five?

Mr. Truman said that UNRAIS is rapidly closing down and "we must not leave the task unfinished." Press Secretary Charles G. Ross said the recommended appropriation would cover relief during the remainder of this calendar year.

He said that scientists would quit atomic projects if convinced that political and special interests would be successful in blocking Mr. Lillienthal's appointment.
Already, he said, scientists have quit their jobs at the atomic projects at Los Alamos, N. Mex., and Oak Ridge, Tenn. Although he stoutly backed Mr. Lilienthal's appointment, Dr. Compton made clear that the university was preparing than the mere question of confirming the appointment.

Provided It Has A Logical Or Just Cause,
$2,200 Awais Some Campus Organization
There is one string—the organization must be able to use the money for a good cause.
All or a part of $2,200 is awaiting some campus organization.
According to Raymond Nichols, executive secretary, an activity fund is divided into various parts for concerts, athletics, and the Daily Kansan. Among these items is one marked "Activity Ticket Reserve."
Each student contributed 10 cents this semester to the reserve from his activity fee. Part of the reserve is used for printing the activity book.
The remaining sum, approximately $2,200, is available to any organization which can show a just or logical need for its use.
Last year the fund, then totaling $3,000, was given to the University book store. In a previous year, part of the reserve paid the expenses of Dandelion day.
Student organizations may apply for the fund at Mr. Nichol's office.
