ings, meetings, or groups will be
permitted in the open. All meet
ings, lectures, rehearsals, and
classes will be dismissed -for the

time to reach their homes before
the blackout alarm. There will
be evacuations during the black

Raid Warden. If none are
ar
ranged, students must observe all
rules, refrain from the use of lights

and raw • materials that they could

peace conferences after. this war,
and must begin planning now for
the post-4war period," 'Marquie de

agriculture was not represented
at the peace conference after

'Myers, head of the department of
agricultural economics at Cornell

abundant, and that parity prices
for farm products will give farm
