Meeting of the Northwest
Music Educators Conference

bring to Tacoma one Of the
most representative gather
ings of school musicians and
instructors ever held on the

Louis. Mo. for the National Music
Educators Conference last spring.
Another influence vas the esteem
in which Lois G. Wersen, super
visor of music, is held by the
national association.

be several hundred members OF
the music educators group, in

WASHINGION-State de-
partment pouches from sew
eral world capitals have
brought the glad news in re-
cent days that a European
conflict this spring has be-
come only a remote possibility.
Hitler and Mussolini, according
to these advices, figure they do not
possess the economic resources for

Gayda-Goebbels propaganda, both
the German and Italian peoples
are reported as disconnected and

dreams of conquest entail. More

be assured of a full decade OF COM
parstive peace.

Even William Green's legislative
agents concede that congress may
be in no mood TO stage a struggle
over an issue Sc loaded with
political dynamite. The most they
hope for now are amendments

bargaining agencies and prevent

several instances, from invalidat-
ing a contract between the fedora

Congress is keen for appesse.
