Our next President will be in a large measure, the deciding factor in determining the future political policy of this country. More than ever before is it essential that American voters take an intelligent stand upon the issues of the coming campaign.

The molding and developing of opinions on questions like these should controls one of the most desirable features of undergraduate training for future citizenship.

Such meetings perform a great service in the broad minded development of college men. We hope that this meeting will be the forerunner of subsequent ones, indicative of interest in current political issues.
