"The Japanese people are very much opposed to war but because of a powerful military government their wishes are not taken into consideration," Dr. T. Z. Koo, leader of Chinese students, asserted at the second of his lectures, "China Speaks," last Friday afternoon.
Doctor Koo analyzed the situation with which Japan is faced, as in: The first place she has more than 70 million people in an area the size of California. Secondly, she is largely an industrial nation solely in need of raw materials and is a market for her goods, and this is the crux of the situation that the Japanese government is trying to alleviate.
—SAYS KOO
The logical place for Japan to expand is China, Doctor Koo said. "In order to more fully understand the Chinese culture," he said.
country," Doctor Koo said. For three hundred years the Chinese government was under the reigns of a powerful regime. In 1911 a new government was set up, but for sixteen years there was confusion. Finally, in 1927, a convention met in Nanking and drew up a constitution comparable to that of the United States. This was published in 1934

'How To Win Friends And Influence People' Is New York Author's Subject
Dale Carnegie, New York author,
radio commentator and lecturer,

things" tomorrow night in Hoch auditorium.
Has Lectured in Europe

Has Lectured in Europe
Attendance at Warrensburg State Teachers College in Missouri, several schools in New York state, and a commercial college in Baltimore, gave Mr. Carregia sufficient background to conduct speaking classes in large cities in the United States, and in London and Paris. He has traveled as a lecturer in the United States and Europe.
Conducted NBC Broadcast
He was the impresario for Lowell Thomas and Sir Ross Smith in 1921 and 1922. His interest in Lincoln led him to do research work on the career of Abraham Lincoln, and in 1932 he presented the result of his labors in "Lincoln the Unknown."
Mr. Carriege conducted a broadcast each Sunday over NBC on "Little Known Facts About Well-Known People," and in 1934 issued a book with the title of his weekly broadcasts. During the past winter he has an audience of more than one broadcast in which he gives case histories of people who have been helped by applying his rules for happier living.
Mr. Carnegie is visiting his parents who live in Belton Mo., and will drive to Lawrence in time for the lecture.

Graduate Shoots Ducks With Her Camera
Because Lorene Squire, '32, was unable to shoot ducks with a gun, she took up the hobby ten years ago of shooting them with a camera. Today she specializes in duck photography and travels hundreds of miles into the wild lake country of Manitoba and Saskatchewan in order to catch these shy birds in their natural habitat. Miss Squires has "braved" dust storms and heavy rains to bring back her pictures. In the March 21 edition of "Life" magazine there is a page and a half devoted to the feminine photographer's accomplishments.
Miss Squires majored in dramatics while at the University.
