UESDAY, DECEMBER 15, 1025 (THE., MICHTGAN DAILY KWA fit') PAGE LEAGUE DELEGATE REPORTS MEET'ING Indorses World Court At Conference in Princeton, New Jersey Last Week MICHIGAN TREASURER j4, ./ rC 5, ft i i i i ~ . Representing the student body of more than 245 colleges of the United States the national students confer- ence on the World Court held last Friday and Saturday in Princeton, New Jersey, endorsed the Harding Hughes Coolidge plan which recom- mends the immediate entrance of the United States into the court, accord- ing to Elizabeth Parrot, '26, who was present as the official delegate of the Women's league of Michigan. The greatest value of the conference Miss Parrot believed was not the de- cision concerning the World Court plan but the leading up to the forma- tion of a permanent organization of student representatives for the dis- cussion of international problems. Several of the speakers emphasized the need of student opinion in na- tional affairs and pointed to the examples of China, Germany, and Rus- sia as countries actually run by stu- dent action. A national student federation of the United States was formed and officers elected at the Princeton conference. Colleges represented in these lections were: president, Princeton; vice-pres- ident, Florida; secretary, Ohio State; and treasurer, John Elliott, '26, of Michigan. This organization was formed temporarily whose purpose is to consider the formation of a more permanent one later. "In talking with women representa- tives of other colleges present at the conference," commented Miss Parrot, "I found that they believed their re- stective campuses to be completely or- ganized and that if such an organiza- tion as the national student federa- tion should be permanently formed a reorganization of the present activi- ties would be necessary in order to allow an active participation of the students." Miss Parrot gave! an informal re- port of her trip before the members of the board of directors of the Wo- men's league yesterday. She will talk - to the members of Athena and Portia Literary societies tonight concerning the results of the conference.
