Mr. J. P. Warbasse, the well known economist, will speak at the Liberal Club luncheon today at 1 o'clock. His subject will be "Retail Cooperation in the United States", dealing with a proposed system of cooperative retail stores, run on a new basis of profit sharing by the ultimate consumer. Mr. Warbasse is President of the Cooperative League of America which is trying to work out a satisfactory organization of this sort.
Next Tuesday, at a 6 o'clock dinner, Dr. John Mez will speak on "German Reparations, French Debts, and American Obligations". Dr. Mez is a well known writer and lecturer on foreign affairs, and came into considerable prominence' as the Correspondent of the Frankfurter Zeitung. He was secretary of the Chamber of Commerce of Mannheim from 1908 to 1910. When David Starr Jordan made a tour of Europe for the International Conciliation movement, he accompanied him as his secretary and co-lecturer. In 1913 he acted as organizer and interpreter for Norman Angell in his lecture tour in Germany in the interests of peace between that country and England. That same year he attended the International Conference of Students held under the auspices of Cornell University at Ithaca, N. Y., and was elected its president.
Dr. Mez will be remembered at the University for his speech at the Student Mass Meeting held last January at Faneuil Hall, Boston.
