Despite financial difficulties which for a time threatened to prevent Harvard's participation in the New England Model League of Nations, it was definitely announced last night that a delegation of 18 undergraduates will attend the Committee and Assembly meetings to be held at Smith College, Northampton, on March 9, 10, and 11.

The members of the Harvard delegation, which will be headed by M. A. Hoffman '34 and W. S. Salant '33, chairman of the Council on Economics, will be chosen at a meeting to be held tonight at 7 o'clock in the Eliot House Common Room. While at Northampton the delegates will stay at the various Amherst fraternity houses.

The first event on the Model League's program will be a meeting of the Council on Economics, headed by Salant, at 8 o'clock Thursday evening, March 9. Simultaneously with this will be meetings of the Permanent Arms Commission and of the Conciliation Commission of American Neutrals, which will discuss the Bolivian-Paraguayan dispute in the Chaco.

At 9 o'clock the next morning the reports of these committees will be transmitted to the Assembly and after that there will be a discussion of the action to be taken by the League in the Chaco Dispute. Since to the Harvard delegation has been assigned the task of supporting the Paraguayan side of the question, this event will be of vital interest to them. Then, at 10.30 o'clock will come the first formal meeting of the whole Assembly, at which the president and committee chairman will be elected.
