YANKEE
PROGRAM
ADOPTED
Proposal to Re-define
Open Door Policy In
China Approved In
Part by ENJOYS

Washington, Jan. 1S.-(By AS
sociated Press. )--The American
proposal to redefine the open door
policy in China and to create an
international board to examine
both existing and future conces-
sions which appear to conflict
with it was adopted in part today
by the far eastern committee OF
the Washington conference.
The portion adopted included
the general statement as to equal
ity of opportunity in China for
trade and industry Of all nations:
the agreemnt by which the eight
powers declare their acceptance Of
that principle and the provision
for creation of the international
board.
Action was deferred pending
further discussion OF the fourth
and final paragraph of the reso-
luton by which the nine powers.
including China, agree that any
provisions Of any existing conces-
sion appearing inconsistent with
those of another concession or
with the principles of the open
door may be submitted by the
powers concerned to the interna-
tional reference board.
The Japanese and French dele
cations were understood to have
interposed objections to the fourth
paragraph of the resolution; the
latter suggesting its amendment
to prevent possible interference
with existing concessions by the
board. Definite agreement to take
the paragraph up later was not
reached, it was said, although the
Chinese delegation gave notice OF
Its intention to press later for its
adoption.

Lacking only in stage equip
ment the dramatic department of
the Willamette university present
ed the "Twig of Thorns" before a
fairly large audience last night.
Martha Mallory in the character

The story hinges around the
simple urban life OF the poor folk

and spirits play a large role in
their lives. Two lovers bid for
the hand of the charming lass
Una. One Aileel, handsome ver-
satile poet and musician, part

her his love in flowing words of
poetic beauty. But at the simple
tale of love spoken by the poor
and simple Angus, she chooses the
