CAMBRIDGE, Mass, July 29, - Only 45 percent of members of the graduating class of Harvard college will enter vacations for which they have a personal preference, it was revealed in the results of poll taken among the seniors.
 The questionnaire, designed to show the occupation which the seniors plan to follow upon graduation, dis closed that a large number of the young men would prefer to write, travel, enter the diplomatic corps or follow other avocations were it not that external circumstances were diverting them from the desired car eerS.
 Still other seniors would enter the fields of music, aviation, farming, en- tomology, journalism, or even enlist in the army if there were not cir cumstances requiring that they go into other vacations, the answers stated.
 The poll showed that law, busi- ness, medicine and teaching are the occupations which the majority of the class actually will follow. Chem istry, engineering and architecture rank next on this list

GERMANY BARS LET'S IN
OFFER OF NON.AGGRESSlO

Berlin, April l2.-(R10ermany was
Represented by a high foreign office
official Friday as ready to sign pacts
of non-aggression with all her neigh
bors except Lithuania.
when the Memel question Is solv.
ed, then we will be ready to make
such an agreement with Lthuania,
said the spokesman. who described
his explanation as "the absolute off,
Icil policy of Adolf Hitler"
This statement was given to the
Associated Press soon after other Of
ficial sources declared the proposed
Franco Russian mutual assistance
agreement and Italy's intention to
keep 100000 men under arms had
killed all hope that the Stresa con.
ference would make any important
contribution to European stability.
The foreign office spokesman also
said Germany is prepared to enter
into q general arms convention "on
the basis of full equality"
Our demands for an army Of 36
divisions, IS per cent of Great Bri-
tain's navy and equality in the air
are quite reasonable" he added.
"This is the line Hitler took when
he talked to Foreign Secretary Sir
John Simon of Great Britain. We
never would have asked for more
arms If the others had come down to
our level. The 100000 men allotted to
us by the Versailles treaty would have
been sufficient"
