The trademark "Yale," banned from Harvard university door- locks ever since the modern lat- ches were invented, has been found on 70 doors in Randolph hall, dormitory on the Harvard campus. The failure to delete the name of the lock from the mechanism has been attributed to an oversight on the padt of officials, the second in a period: of years. Although all lock' in the other dormitories are of the same make, a special process has been used to omit the name of the manufacturer, a lineal descend- ant of Elihu Yale, so as not to confuse bewildered students re- turning late at night PRESS LUB9PLANS FINAL TICKET SALE ro Award Traditional Oil Can at Gridiron Dance lonig it.

FINANCE ISSUE AVOIDEDI United States Attitude Outlined in Confeence With Statesmen. GENEVA, April 21.--(/IP)-Secre- tary Stimson and Premier Andre Tardieu today failed to reach an agreement on the crucial problems of disarmament and security or reconcile the French and American views. The Secretary of State plunged into the disarmament issue in a series of conversations with the leading statesmen of the world, now assembled i Geneva. They in- elude, in addition to M. Tardieu, Prime Miister Ramsay MacDonald and Chancellor Heinrich Bruening Explained American Scheme. Mr. Stimson side-stepped the in- ternational financial problem up- permost in the minds of the assem- bled statesmen, although the Ger- man chancellor attempted to ini- tiate a discussion of that subject. In official quarters, the Stimson- Tardieu conversation was summar- ized thus: The secretary explained the Amer- ican scheme of "quantitative" arms reduction, which entails three steps. 1-To determine the armed strength of each nation's needs for internal police work, using the cri- teria employed in determining the limitations imposed on the Central Powers in the peace treaties. U. S. Opposes Security Pact. 2-To determine the armed strength each nation needs for de- fense, on the basis of each country's particular situation, considering its colonial possessions and other such demands. 3-The total would represent the approximate level of possible limi- tat ion. This was advaned, Mr. Stimnson explained, merely as a suggestion, and the United States would be glad to consider all schemes that might be presented. Asked what the American atti- tude was toward a European se- curity pact, the secretary replied that the United States would not participate in any such agrement. Tom Mooney Is Denied Pardon byGov.

NEW ALIENISTS IN 'TO FIGHT MASSIE IINSANITY DEFENSE BOTH ARE CALIFORNIANS Prosecutor Seeks Ruling to Use Paper Torn by Mrs. Massie as Evidence. HONOLULU, April 21.-(P)-Be- hind the scenes in the trial .of four persons accused of lynching Joseph Kahahawai, the prosecution today fought the defense contention that Lieut. Thomas H. Massie was insane when he wielded the pistol that killed the native. Court sessions were postponed un- til Saturday at the request of Pro- secutor John C. Kelley to permit two newly arrived California alien- ists to prepare evideqce. One is Dr. Joseph Catton, San Francisco alienist who contributed to the testimony that brought a conviction and death sentence to Mrs. Winne Ruth Judd for the mur- der of two women in Pheonix, Ariz. New Alienist Arrives. The other prosecution alienist is Dr. Paul Bowers, of Los Angeles, who made no secret of his mission upon arrival today. At least one of the territory alien- ists made arrangements to examine Lieut. Massie, who had testified his mind went blank when he stood before Kahahawai with a pistol and heard the native confess parti- cipating in an attack on his wife, Mrs. Thalia Massie. The prosecutor also sought a rul- ing from Judge Charles S. Davis to permit the trial record to show that a paper which Mrs. Massie destroy- ed in a fit of anger on the witness stand was permissible as evidence. The paper supposedly told of a rift between herself and her husband a few months before the attack. It was in the form of answer to a psy- chopathic examination at the Uni- versity of Hawaii. Darrow Smiles at Outburst. Clarenee Darrow, chief defense attotrney, chuckled today kat the memory of Mrs. Massie's spectacu- lar outburst on the stand, which he called the most dramatic in his long career as a criminal lawer. Kelley also grinnedat the fit of temper he exhibited in matching Mrs. Massie's fury. He said he had neglected to have a copy of the paper made.. Previous to her outburst, Mrs. Massie had testified about hearing rumors involving herself and her Husband after five accussed men, including Kahahawai had b e e n tried for the assault and the jury 'ad disagreed.

To what values sall I be loyal?" these and more than twenty other questions relating to philosophy and the deeper values of life will be attacked by a parley of students and faculty members meeting at 2:30 and 7:30 o'clock tomorrow on the second floor of the Union.

Prof John L. Brumm of the department of jour- nalism will act as faculty chairman and will preside over the meetings. The plan of procedure according to the announcement is to have the students and any faculty members who care to attend sit on chairs placed in a large circle about the room. In the center of this circle will be placed a large table at which a selected group of fifteen faculty members and the presiding officer will be seated. Five minute talks by three facul- ty members and one student 'will provide an explanation ofwhat the parley is to deal with and after this the whole session will be devoted to open discussion with the students attempting in general to put the faculty members "on the carpet" with regard to their life philosophy and their conceptions of the mean- ing of success. A sample of the kind of topics which will come un- der discussion maybeathered from the questions which the com- mittee has composed in advance of the meeting. One of these asks: Is any philosophy of life of value when the whole social order is un- stable? PRAISED BYBATES Justices of Supreme Bench Are Analyzed by Law School Head at Forum.

He has the most accurate conception of judi- cial duty of any of the judges. Car- dozo is experienced in the field of property and commercial law more than he is inhconstitutional lines.
