INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS CLUB The Kalamazoo College International Relations club has had a most active existence since its inception early in the school year. This group, which constitutes a new and important campus organization, is a direct result of the wider and deeper interest taken everywhere by college people in world affairs. The International Relations club, which is but one of many similarly' organized throughout the colleges of the country for the same purpose, was directly' instigated by the visit to Kalamazoo college of Dr. A. B. Hall, professor oif political economy at the University of XVisconsin. Dr. Hall addressed the student body on Economical Imperialism and America's Foreign Policy, a topic. that did much to awaken interest in America's world position. It was soon after this that a faculty committee of seven. Dr. lilalch, Professors Foth, Bailey, and Hovey, Dr. Degeler, Dean Powell. and Dr. Thompson, was organized to consider the formation of a club that should study international relations. IYithin a short time the announcement w.as given that the first meeting of the newly formed International Relations club would be held on December lo. ,An unusually well-qualified speaker was fortunately secured as the attraction for the first meeting, Dr. A. bl. Ilarnouvv of the- Institute for International Education. Prof. Barnouw, at present in America on an exchange fellowship as holder of the Queen IYilhemina chair of Dutch history at Columbia university, is a professor in the university of Leyden, the Netherlands. The short speech that Dr. llarnouw gave in chapel was but a small indication of the illuminating discussion he gave at the open meeting on Holland's International Relations. Another highly interesting lecture was given during February under the auspices of the International Relations club when Professor Arthur I. Andrews of Tufts college gave before the student body an illustrated talk on Czecho- 1:-lovakia and its people. I3'rofessor Andrews had special qualifications for such a discussion, having been during 1920-21 a lecturer at the Ifniversity of Prague. In addition, however, to talks by visiting speakers, a series of carefully present- ed and well organized papers have been read before the club at each meeting in conformance to a program laid down at its original organization. This year's program has been devoted to the study of Ifar Ifastern affairs. Two meetings were taken up with papers on 'lapan's history and politics. Then China was similarly considered. The Russo-japanese was also a topic for discussion, with the year's schedule closing by papers that took up .lapan's advance to world empire. and its peculiar relation to the liar Eastern problem.
