"Open Door Policy" Soon to Be Adopted by League of Nations
THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
United States May Help Draft and Sign New Codification
for League
(United Press)
Genève, April 30—The United States' traditional "open door policy" for trade in legal parts of the world is being codified into international law by law.
This policy which has been pre-
claimed on numerous occasions by
the United States is recognized as
a principle of international law in
damental principles in foreign policy.
It played an important role is the opening of China to western cities in the wake of World War II, upon by the United States in all of the mandated territories resulting from the conflict, and recently has been called to the attention of the powers interested in the region.
Provides Equal Trade Rights Briefly it provides that all foreign nations should have equal trade and commercial rights in all countries.
The Economic Committee of the League of Nations has just completed a transition incorporating this policy and which is intended to ensure foreigners and foreign undertakings equitable access to the commerce in so far as it is compatible with the requirements of international trade and the legitimate interests of countries.
Draft Project Considered
The draft project has now been combined with the League of Nations for their consideration, and as soon as their observations have been submitted an audited report is prepared for monitoring for launching the convention, which is the method adopted by the League for the codification into intergovernmental treaties.
The United States, as one of the greatest expounders of the open-door policy will be given an opportunity to help draft and sign the convention.

Aviation Hazards Diminishing in Proportion to Miles Flown. Says Prudential Statistician
Newark, N. J., April 30 — Flying is becoming safer. Aviation accidents in proportion to the mileage flown throughout the whole United States, are diminishing, according to statistics compiled by Dr. Frederick L. Haffman, consulting statistician of the Prudential Life Insurance Company.
During the year 1928, there were 160 fatal accidents in air operations, including pilots, mechanics, passengers and others. Five of these were women, one a negress, a professional aviator. The number was probably somewhat less during 1927, while the number during the year increased considerably.
It is estimated that in 1927, there were about 1500 licensed pilots, among whom there occurred 11 fatalities, a rate of 1.1 per 1000; the rate were 10 per 1000 it could not be considered excessive considering the novelty of flying over new air routes and the rapid growth of the industry. This has led to a comprehensive survey of aviation hazards in this country and abroad to determine among other things what percentage of aviators die and what constituents of accidents. In the course of his invest-

Art Exhibit Being Shown "Life" Class Enriched
Chancellor Lindley Is Pleased With Collection Here
Post-mortem examination of the brains of G. Stanley Hall, eminent psychologist, Sir Wilham Ocker, for many years an outstanding doctor and Edward S. Mosee, widely known naturalist and zoologist, did not show striking variations from the normal. Dr. Henry H. Ancuny and Professor John Annacy and Biology told members of the National Academy of Sciences here today. They were, however, slightly heavier than the brains of individuals still for commision.
The pictures are selected from the 1927 winter exhibition of the National Academy of Design, an important art event of the season, and the University is fortunate to be able to secure the collection for a short time, h

"I am very glad that mankind is not as fond of labor as it was once," he said. "The human frame as we see it today is quite immeable of any serious labor. Science will reduce the hours to six hours a day, and perforate five."
"When those hours are cut down you will be faced with the problem of the proper arrangement of his body. If he is definite and systematic instruction in amusement, Science is going to put him under the possibility of a heaven on earth."
"This summer," declared Doctor Hoffman, "I expect to fly from Boston to the Pacific coast and return by the plane. I will be sent to airports, radio reporting, plane and engine performance, comfort, safety and medical examination of photos. The trip will extend over 6,000 miles of established airways."
The Imperial Airways of London, declared Doctor Hoffman, during the three years ending with 1927, carried about $2,000 passengers without a fajita, but more than two,250,000, and as stated, without a single death to mar the record. By way of contrast, Doctor Hoffman pointed out that in 1842, according to one source, $30,000 seniors carried on the eight railway lines of the United Kingdom numbered 10,000, while the distance traveled was 3,500,000 miles. The number of people traveling each day, 22. Yet air transportation has vastly greater difficulties to contend with.

Plant Fossils Discovered
Grand Canyon Yields Seaweed Billions of Years Old
(Selence Service)
Washington, April 30 — Numerous fossil remains of plants, belonging to the lowly water forms known as algae, have recently been discovered in the ancient rocks near the bottom of the Grand Canyon of Arizona.
At the meeting of the National Academy of Sciences here today, Dr. David White, of the U. S. Geological Society, reported among the proterozoic rocks and the peculiar stony masses he found there, representing what were once great marine invertebrates, plants on the bottom of a sea that existed nearly a billion years ago. At least five different types of deposits of these ancient organisms in those primal oceans, in Doctor White's opinion, and there is at least one additional type of stone which was probably an island plant or animal life, with the probabilities in favor of a plant origin.
