Chamberlain Quits
brifain's S Cabinet:
Inner Unit Formed

LONDON, Oct. 3 (UP)- Neville
!, Chamberlain, champion of appease-
ment and leader of the cabinet
which took Great Britain into the
war, resigned as Lord President of
the council in Prime Minister Win
ston Churchill's war cabinet today
and passed out of active politics in
which he had been a key man
since the last war.
Ernest Bevin, supply minister, a
labor union leader who entered the
cabinet less than five months ago
to become one of the country's
most dynamic leaders; Sir King
sley Wood, chancellor of the ex-
chequer. and Sir John Anderson
were promoted to membership in
the war cabinet in a reorganization
which Churchill effected incident
to Chamberlain's resignation.
Bevin and Wood retained their
posts; Anderson, who had been
Vhome secretary and home security
minister, was given Chamberlain's
post of Lord President, instead.
Thus Churchill increased the
membership in the inner war cab
met to eight men-himself as prime
minister and defense minister; Bev-
in, Wood, Anderson, Viscount Hall
fax, foreign secretary; Maj. Gle
ment r. Attlee, labor party leader,
lord privy seal; Arthur Green
wood, deputy labor party leader,
minister without portfolio. and
Lord Beaverbrook, minister for air
craft production. Beaverbrook was

Unique in the annals of Juneau musical history, will be the music that is to be played as a prelude to the forthcoming Juneau Players production, Dangerous Corner" by J. B. Priestly, that is to be pre- sented next Friday and Saturday evening at the Coliseum Theatre.
 Miss Corrinne Jenne, local violin ist, who graduated last year from Mills College, after having at tained the distinction of being named a member of La Chiavette, National Honor Society, has com- posed special music for the occa- sion.
 The young composer recently at- tended a rehearsal of the play. She gave the play her heartiest ap- proval and since she had already consented to furnish the accom- panying music, expressed a wish that she might make the music a true reflection of the drama by composing it herself. Accordingly she set herself an unusual and interesting task, that of searching out the theme motivating the ac- tion and translating that thought into music.

William Sanders
Speaks at Tea
In Clubhouse

Problems facing nations Of tne
Western Hemisphere in a readjust-
ment to new order in Europe were
discussed by William Sanders, chief
OF the juridical division of the Pan
American Union before members of
the American Association of Uni
versity Women at the clubhouse
yesterday.
I'VE are on the threshold Of a
future international decision" he
said, either to maintain a balance
OF power or to establish a perma-
nent basis of international cooper
alton"
While many Americans have ad-
vocated complete isolation from Eu-
ropean affairs, such a state is i'm
possible, Mr.. Sanders declared. How
we are to deal with new power in
Europe is matter of vital irnpor-
lance to all the Americas, he added,
and an adjustment must be made
to assure future collective security.
The Pan-American Union has
demonstrated in the last so years,
the speaker pointed out, the ability
of nations to cooperate amicably
and to adjust difficulties without
resort to force. Established pri-
marily for maintaining cooperation
among nations of the Western Hem
lSphere, the Pan-American Union
recognized at the conference Of
Buenos Aires in 1886 the necessity
of establishing program to deter
mine future relations with Euro
pean powers, he said. The Panama
Conference in 1889 was held for the
purpose of consolidating the posi-
ton of the American republics to-
ward European powers, Mr.. Sanders
said, and the forthcoming confer
ence which we will attend in Ha-
vana will continue consideration of
this program.
The experience Of the Western
Hemisphere in maintaining a CO.
operative system will be of great
value in establishing a future pro-
gram for world cooperation, he
predicted.
Announcement was made by Mrs.
William c. Van Week, president of
the Washington branch, of a special
meeting tomorrow at pm, for
action on a proposed Emergency
Committee to study means of CO.
operation with the British Fedora
ton of University Women in re-
Spouse to an appeal to care for

also announced that in the year

ment fund. Mr.. Sanders was intro
