And Central America PRAISE MONROE DOCTRINE (By Associated Press) LOS ANGELES, Oct. 12-The Amer- ican Federation of Labor today frown- ed on an attempt to interfere in the government's foreign policy in Latin America and China and recorded its unanimous approval of the Monroe Doctrine. "Concerning the general subject of relations with South America, the ,committee is firmly convinced that a proper adherence to the Monroe Doc- trine is necessary for the best inter- ests of the people of both Central and South America,"' the committee re- port said. After affirming the Monroe Doc- trine, the report continued: "It may be that the Nicaraguan situation in Central America was considered suf- ficient by authors .of the resolution to base the general charge with ref- erence to the South American re- publics. The committee believes it proper to point out that President Green (William Green of the federa- tion) acting as president of the Amer- ican Federation of Labor and presi- dent of the Pan-American Federation of Labor, has already taken the Nica- raguan situation up with thle United States government in an effort to be belpful to the Nicaraguan people. That however, is a subject which is before another committee which will doubt- less report fully concerning it." Referring to the resolution's criti- cism of the United States "sending warships and troops to China," the report said: "As to China,, the Chinese problem in its present aspect is a' result of class interferences and in- terventions on, the part of the for- eign governments in the internal af- fairs of China. In that respect our government "has committed error. AI mere withdrawal would 'simply result in giving certain other nations in- volved, an opportunity, if they are so inclined, to use so-called American in- terests in China to further embroil our government. President Green- and the executive goverftment are, we understand, giving earnest thought{ and study to the problem and to -what# procedure is most likely to enable the United States further to prevent er- rors with reference to China."

The race for the presidence of the class went to Whittle with very little opposition. The only other candidate in the field was Hubert Thompson, '2),'who polled only 132 votes to 339 for Whittle. There was no third can- didate nominated for this office. Other Classes Will Ballot This afternoon the juniors of the School of Business Administration and the, College of Pharmacy will meet to choose their officers. Sopho- mores of all schools and colleges of the campus will hold their elections next week, according to the schedule of the Student council, while the freshmen elections will not be held until after Thanksgiving day. All of the balloting will be in -charge of Stu- dent council officers, and different colored ballots are being used in the various schools and colleges of the' campus. The election yesterday was the larg- est thus far held of the class elections to date, and with the possible excep- tion of the freshmen literary election will be the largest this fall. FRESHMAN GROUPS TO MEET TONIGHT Completing the first set of six group group meetings, three freshmen groups will meet tonight at the Union. Wilfred Tisch, '30; Jackson Wilcox, '30, and Charles Kingsley, '30, will preside over the separate groups.
