The statement, which may go down in his history, "the proper door" policy of Secretary of State John Hay, was made in the form of a letter to Chairman Borah of the senate foreign relations committee. No.116 After tracing the rise of the "open door" policy of free trade in China and its formal acceptance by the world powers in 1922, Simson called attention to the challenges "the recent events which have taken place in China, especially the hostilities which having been begun in Manchuria have been extended to Shanghai, far from indicating the advisability of the treaties we are being discussed. "It has tended to bring home the vital importance of the faithful observance of the convictions therein to all the nations interested in the Far East. "We see no reason for abandoning the enlightened principles which are embodied in these treaties. We believe these situations would have been avoided had these principles not been adopted and no evidence bar come to us to indicate that a due compliance with them would have interfered with the adequate protection of the legitimate right in China to the signatories of these treaties and then re-engraced it. This statement was regarded as an answer to Japan's contention in its reply to Stimson's note of Jan. 7 that present conditions in China were the wrong time for the single power pact guaranteeing the same sovereignty was signed.

The announcement, which came after a three and one-half hour session by the athletic director, E. H. Landley, is the result of a previously announced athletic expenditure reduction necessitated by the fact that last past season have fallen considerably. Together with the announcement of the release, the board also announced the passing of a resolution stating that the athletic director must devise an provision of all sports is to be placed in the hands of Athletic Director Forrest C. Allen, and that all coaches be directly responsible to him, and he in connection with it proper contract of the department. Board Gives Statement Board gives statement The complete statement given out by the board last night is as follows: "The board finds itself confronted with a financial problem owing to a decrease in the expenditures and necessates a reduction in the coaching staff, both in number and in salaries. The board will save savings here and in other economies throughout the year, the board will be enabled to meet its financial obligation and efficiency and the best interests of the University, the board approved the following coaching staff for the year 1932-33, Hargis, Getto, Hamilton, Cox, Logan. "Moved, that the board place complete executive control of and supervision over all sports in the University in the athletic director and that all coaches be responsible to the director and by reason of the authority repose the authority to countable for the proper conduct of the department. Carried unanimously." Reductions Make Up Deficit This reduction of two men in the athletic department personnel together with the resignation of Larry Mullin to accept the position of athletic director, will result in salary in the salary of $10,300, with salary reductions for the entire coaching staff, evidently will offset the deficit which the athletic department is supposed to be facing. Doctor Allen relied on the advice of the amount of salary reductions. Hinshaw, a former College of Emporia football player, came to the University in 1928 with Coach H. W. H.ARGA and Baumann came here six years ago. Baumann is a graduate of Oklahoma High School. Hinshaw had no statement to make. The action taken is presumably the final move that will be made in athletic expenditure reduction, and it puts an end to the many rumors that have been spread the past month as to what will happen to him. Among these rumors were those that Hargas would be dismised and that Allen would take over his duties as head football coach, that Cox and Logan would be dropped from the payroll—in fact, almost every member of the team was included in the rumored dismissals. Staff Assignments Later Reregistration of the staff and assignments of duties will be accomplished later. Doctor Allen said today, "We are in the physical education department, including Herbert G. Alphim, R. E. El Bibel, Dr. James Naumith, and members of the women's physical education department. The students' physical education and are under direct jurisdiction of the University rather than that of the athletic board. The sports are under University jurisdiction." Members of the athletic board present at the meeting last night were Chancellor Lindley; Karl Klooz, brassist; Dr. James Nailenth, Doctor Alcee. Dr. Jenkins, Daniel Sawyer, R. Smith and H. A. Rice of the University faculty; Rockwell Strobel, T32, and Earl Foy, T32, student representatives; and Irving Hill of Lawrence, Maurice Breedlington of Kansas City, Kan; and Topeka, alumni representative. Jayhawker Orders More Conies Jayhawk Orders More Copies According to Joe Balch, businessman and chief executive of the company are progressing so well that the order to the princess has been increased.

So eventually the adjustment was made.
