The Harvard Inquiry, provisionally organized last spring to encourage a more inquisitive attitude toward public affairs among undergraduates, will hold a formal organization meeting in Eliot House Common Room on Thursday evening, October 6, at 7.30 o'clock. At that time a constitution drafted by the organizers will be considered, officers will be elected, and plans and prospects for the year will be discussed. More than 70 members were enrolled in a brief campaign conducted during the reading period last May.

The Inquiry program throughout the year will center about the question, "What has the depression revealed about the need for long run changes?" Bruce Bliven, president and editor of The New Republic, will speak at the first general meeting of the Inquiry on October 25. He will talk on "What the presidential campaign has revealed about the depression," thus introducing the Inquiry's question of the year.

The principal activity of the Inquiry, however, will be to arrange for informal discussion meetings in the Houses in which it has an active group. The Dunster House group plans to hold a series of after-luncheon open-forum meetings on Thursdays during October in which it will put the question of long-run economic changes up to representatives of the four parties. Glen Trimble, Socialist candidate for State Treasurer, will explain and defend his party's program at the first of these on October 6. J. S. Lawrence '01, a Republican and treasurer of the New England Council, will be quizzed by the Dunsterites the following week. On October 20, LaRue Brown '04, former Assistant Attorney General during the Wilson administration will be on hand to answer questions concerning the Democratic attitude toward fundamental changes. The fourth Thursday of the month has been reserved for a representative of the Communist party, who will be announced later. Similar programs are to be arranged for other Houses shortly.
