The spirit of the Milwaukee conference will be interpreted in a convoction to be held tomorrow afternoon in Fraser chair at 4:30. The plan of the convoction will be that of the general conference sessions in so far as possible. A short forum will be held after the talks.
The conversation is being held in connection with the Y, W, C, A, and the A, W, Y conferences to unummarize the whole conference, but to give the University students the prevailing atmosphere and spirit, according to Edpac Schowalter, who will
Schowalter says further regarding the conference:
The racial, industrial and religious sides of the meetings will be shown in the light of the main theme of the conference, "What resources his Jesus for life?" The regular convocation program will be preceded by a short levitational service. A quartet will sing sound-bound bands will be led by Brian Grant.
"There has been little opportunity for the real purpose and spirit of the conference to be interpreted to the students of the University and we hope to be able to do this at the convention. The spirit of the Milwaukee conference has been misinterpreted and we want to impress the students by making a statement of resolutions or feelings, not was it a discussion of trivial subjects such as setting or women smoking as the press has made it out to be."
Edgar Schoatwalt will preside. Escher Davis will give the racial problem. Paul Porter will give the industrial and international questions. The previous discussions together with the general phases of the convention.
Job Situation Is Critical
Coach Steele to Talk to Chamber of Commerce on Aid
The job attention at the University for needy, deserving students will be taken up and discussed at the regular undergraduate conference Tuesday. Hardo O. Steele, personified man of the University coaching staff, will be the chief speaker. A general discussion by members of the chamber will follow.
The official notice says: "We are facing a critical situation in the matter of finding jobs for needy, dererving student abilities that could fail to find needed work. Last fall we insured the coaching staff that we would provide a loan fund and the necessary jobs, if all was done that could be done by everyone to get promising grounding athletic ability to come here."
“Indications are that good material is coming. Many of them are poor boys who must have work. What are we going to do about it and how? It appears to be squarely up to us now. Therefore our meeting Tuesday will be given to the subject of student jobs. Coach Harold Steele will tell us the needs. Suggestions and discussion will be in order.”

Members of Buehler's Class Compose Teams Trained in New Style
Courtroom Method of Debate to Have First Trial Tonight
The courtroom method of debate will be given its first trial at the University tonight at 7:30 in the Little Theater in Green hall.
Teams composed of members of Prof. E. Christian Buchler's debate class will debate on "Resolved that the R. O. T. C. should be abolished in American colleges and university." David Evans, c28; Kenneth Corner, Chris Grimes, 52c; and Charles Grounds, c28 are the members of the teams.
According to Professor Bucher this new style of debating has many advantages over the other more formal and less interesting style. Two examples are given, the two sides after which they are cross-examined by two other members of the class.
animation two members make the revaluation of the argument given by the first speaker and the closing is made up by a plea from some member of each team. "This style of debating" means that the team must meet of the possibility of memorized speech and requires the teams to be constantly on the alert. The speakers must be able to adapt themselves to an unfamiliar insult in this type of debate.
"From the standpoint of the audience the debate will be much more interesting. It has less formality than the other type and takes on the true spirit of argumentation. It has been written over a long period that promises the same success here. I hope that we can get the standards to come and hear this new type of debate so that we can get their attitude toward it. It is an endeavor to make argumentation highly interesting and attributable to both audience and debaters."
This same type of debating will be used in the debate with the University of Missouri which is to be held here Feb. 9. The subject for this debate will be: "Resolved that congress should enact legislation embodying the principles of the McNary-Hauen farm bills."

Team Work Cited as Valuable Asset of Student Store
Co-operative League Head Speaks to Committee About Proposed Book Shop
"The advantages of a consumer co-operative organization he isn't so much in the amount of money saved, but in the fostering of teamwork and sense of community," she added are created by profit-sharing business ventures," declared Dr. James P. Warbase, president of the Cooperative League of America, who spoke at a luncheon at the comedy today at the Renaissance book store committee.
"The organization of a cooperative association at this school is possible," he said, "although it will meet with obstacles. In the first place, it is not easy to demand property to demand a cooperative organization in which the profit-making element is eliminated. Moreover, with the change of a student body every four years it is difficult to maintain a traditional context in the venture."
Associations Not Political
Doctor Warbase pointed out that co-operative associations were not political in any sense; they appealed to a group at large without having any influence over the facts of the constitution. In large schools controlled by political experiments it is therefore difficult for experiments in this direction to succeed.
"The Cooperative League in America is only part of a great international organization in 55 countries." Doctor Warbasse explained. "Al present there are 8,000 societies with a membership of 50,000 persons."
"In England, Denmark, Switzerland,
Belgium and other western European countries cooperative membership is an established basis, and no person is excluded because of his religion or politics. However, this condition does not obtain in Italy, for the Friars have been 6,000 sozenion in that country."
Profit Supplants Service
Speaking to the advanced economies class at 1139, Doctor Warbaugh compared the needs of the service motive compared to the needs of the business motive in modern business "In modern business the profit taken the place of the services motive in the production of goods, thus raising the cost of living," he declared, "The first co-operative league was in Rocheville, England, for the primary profits. This club began with a membership of 28 and a capital of $440.
"The organization bought goods from the manufacturers and sold them at just enough profit to replace the article on the shelves of the store. Any surplus was returned every three months to the purchasers, the largest buyer receiving the highest return."
The meeting with Doctor Warbaugh was arranged by members of the committee which is considering the organization of a cooperative book store. Clarence O. Senior was in charge of the luncheon.
License Ordinance Gets Rough Handling by Judge
The new Lawrence license ordinance received a shock Saturday when Judge Hugh Minski ruled that two sections were invalid. One section provided that timber photographers and other assessed a fee for non-resident dealers in pop, bakery products, and so on.
The first section was held invalid because it required an unreasonable fee. The judge said that Lawrence and the plaintiff photographs just an illuminated photographers did. The other accession was ruled out under the state law requiring a license fee to be the name for resident as for non-resident deal-
Judge Means also declared that the ordinance could not impose a tax on personal selling products for firms not residents of Kansas, because this would interfere with interstate commerce. This rule will apply to several students of the University, who seek such proposals in the city.
