Student Senate aciivities in meeting Tuesday were limited to the consdieration of two petitions and a proposal.
Gardnar Mulloy was allotted time to make his proposal for further funds toward the completion of the University’s new intramural field.

The solons voted to table the discussion of the matter until the next meeting to give them a chance for more consideration.

Plans could not be carried out and the new request was that the money be used to remodel a room in the law school building for use as a court room. It was explained that the

“America’s Asiatic policy, which the Japanese have dubbed that of the “empty gun,” has heretofore been neither isolationist nor interventionist,” said Dr. Paul E. Eckel, assistant professor of history, at last night’s meeting of the International Relations Club. “Based on the Stimson Doctrine, it has been one of non-recognition.”
“But Japan only understands the language of force,” be continued, “hence Americans, against their will, are obliged to speak to Japan in a language she will understand.”
In explaining the Far Eastern disturbance, Dr. Eckel outlined Japan’s actions in previous situations.
