Naugatuck, April 10-Miss Eunice
Harriet Avery, who has been en-
gagged for a series of lectures for the

ish House Association which spon-
sors her lectures, Miss Avery writes:
IT have planned this trip for three
reasons: Cd to get Mexico's slant on
North-South American war activities
and postwar relations and on her
own social evolution; 90 I want the
Pacific coast springboard as pat
tern of the Pacific, and for post
war industry and thinking; and 90
I want Vancouver and Montreal
for the angles they can give me on
Europe and the British Common
wealth"
Miss Avery would welcome names
of people whom she might meet on
this journey and from whom she
might obtain information to enrich
her lectures for the coming season.
