A Includes Veterans From South Pacific Battles Today on Role Of SiieiLand Gkrad ai of ita tici Discuses Position o Country in War World Prof. Charles E. Koella of the Ro- mance Language Department will discuss the role of Switzerland in a world at war in the second of the series of French lectures at 8 p.m. today in the Assembly Room of the Rackham Building. Prof. Koella was born in Lausanne, Switzerland and received his educa- tion there, graduating from the Uni- versity of Lausanne. In discussing the speech he will give today, he explained that Swit- zerland is bound to neutrality by treaties. Switzerland was given offi- cial neutrality in the Treaty of West- phalia in 1648. This was confirmed in the Treaty of Vienna in 1815. 'Neutrality Not Effeminate' He said that though Switzerland has had no major quarrels with other nations since the time of the French Revolution and though neu- trality is a time tested policy of the Swiss, "there is nothing effeminate about Swiss neutrality." Switzerland's role in this war con- sists mainly of four things, he said: (1) Shelter for political refugees. It is estimated that there are 300,000 German refugees in Switzerland now. (2) Switzerland acts as an instru- ment of the International Red Cross. In this capacity the Swiss investigate the treatment of war prisoners and help in getting messages to and from civilians and prisoners in Europe. (3) Switzerland is in charge of national representation in enemy countries for the countries at war. (4) "The greatest role of Switzer- land now," he said, "is the lesson the Swiss teach that there is no hope outside of democratic procedure. Theyteach complete acceptance of equality or rights of all people; they have no religious or race prejudices." Swiss Pro-Allied. He said the bulk of the Swiss peo- ple are pro-Allied, and added that the Germans twice have asked to send troops through Switzerland and twice Switzerland has refused. Tickets for the lecture may be secured from the secretary of the Romance Language Department or at the door at the time of the lecture. All servicemen are invited free of charge. to all lectures.

According to Jean Whittemore, head of the unit, the policy of per- mitting the volunteers to choose their own type of dressing was in- augurated because so many women expressed their inability to handle one type as well as the other. In the present system the volunteer is asked to choose the size of dressing that she is most efficient at making. Working hours each week are from 1 to 5 p.m. Wednesday through Fri- day.

Amazed by Facilities "The new men are amazed by the splendid facilities of the University and especially by the housing facil- ities," Capt.. George Spence, com- manding officer of the company, said yesterday. He continued by saying that every one of these men was interviewed prior to his assignment-here to make sure that they had the. educational and intellectual qualifications as well as the natural ability, personality, and ambition necessary for the course here. "We hope to arrange the men's study so that they'll have time to give vent to their natural talents," Capt. Spence said, "but the men must be soldiers first of all. Intensive Training First "Their military training program has already started and for several months they will receive very inten- sive training. Their opportunity to find an outlet to their natural talents will be subjugated to their studies during this period." "As many of the men have not received prior training in the Army, they will receeive a course here which is even more intensive than regular basic training but spread out over a longer period of time," he said. International Center Holds Tea Today Another of the informal afternoon teas will be held from 4 to 5:30 p.m. today in the International Center.

To the People of this Community YOU ARE IMPORTANT There is no such thing as a "little" investment in the Fourth War Loan. Your $25 or $50 or $100 Extra War Bond may not have great importance in your mind in makingup a 5/ billion dol- lar total for in- dividuals. But multiply r M i yourself by 130,000,000 and then you see in real perspective how truly great each citizen becomes in massing na- tional strength against the Nazis and the Japs. Capt. Maurice Witherspoon, Navy chaplain aboard the Carrier Wasp when she sank, tells of a rescued wounded sailor, who, as he regained consciousness, asked: "Did I do my best?"
