This campaign is apart from the one to be conducted within the bounds of the Central Pennsylvania Conference by the Methodist Church for Dickinson College, Williamsport-Dickinson Semin• ary and the Wesley Foundation at State College. In outlining the needs and projects of the campaign, Mr. Spahr pointed to the need to guarantee the future of the college by raising sufficient funds to wipe BOYD LEE SPAHR out the present debt, materially increase President of Board of Trustees endowment for scholarships and admin• Anniversary Fund Chairman istrative requirements, and to provide for building renovations and additions to the physical plant. for rebuilding Bosler Hall, $300,000 for additional scholarship endowment In speaking of the building needs, Mr. and $750,000 additional endowment for Spahr stated that a new chapel and administration and maintenance require• student center should be erected in ments.

If i.t could then raise approximately one_ million dollars gross, as it did, it certainly can raise two and a quarter millions now. Compared to 1920 there are now at least twice as many living alumni; probably four times as many as in 1900. Add to these, friends of the College knowing its worth and the result is a substantial constituency which has the means to make the campaign a success, if each one does his share. Dickinson is one of the great small colleges of the country. It has proved its worth for almost a century and three quarters. It is better today than ever. Yet its endowment is Jess than the colleges with which it ranks, such as Bowdoin, Williams, Amherst, Wesleyan, Hamilton, Swarthmore and Haverford. It vitally needs more funds for general endowment and for scholarships. It needs a new chemistry building and an auditorium-student centre,-both to go on the Mooreland campL1s. It needs to complete the re-conditioning of other buildings. It needs greater security. If it be said that the world outlook is uncertain, that is all the more reason for_ making secure a great institution dedicated to the American way of living. If the times are troublous now, they are not, comparatively speaking, more so than in 1783 when Dickinson, Rush, Montgomery and Wilson de• termined to expand the grammar school of 1773 into a college. What they risked and did, we can do now . Dickinson is yo11r college. What yo11 are is largely due to it. Now is the t1me,-and the only time in the lives of many of us,-to repay what the college has done for us by loyal support to the full extent of our respective abilities. rorrmlment to the members of the given by them to the Alumni Fund in faculty and college staff who had al• 1941 be set aside for the Alumni Fund ready subscribed $41,657.66, represent• of 1942 and that the procedure be fol• ing a subscription from each of them lowed for each subsequent year covered of one-third of a year's salary.

Though the diplomatic relations of England and the United States over the Central American isthmus have received frequent consideration of a general character by writers on American diplomacy, no exhaustive study of the subject appears to have been before attempted. It is the aim of the following essay to present the result of a detailed investigation into Anglo-American isth- mian diplomacy, from the first emergence of Central America as a subject of diplomatic interest between the two countries down to the immediate present. The work here presented is to a large extent based upon new material. Part of this is in the form of printed sources, 'drawn upon to some degree by pre- vious writers but by no means exhausted.

Whueuas, It is represented to the General Assembly that the flag designed and used as the Flag of Maryland, under the Proprietary Government, and which is still known as the Maryland Flag, has never been formally adopted by Maryland as a State, its use having been continued by common consent only; and Whereas, It is not only desirable that the official Flag of Maryland should be formally adopted and legalized, but it is eminently fitting that, by reason of its historic interest and meaning, as well as for its beauty and harmony of colors, the flag adopted should be the one which, from the earliest settlement of the Province to the present time, has been known and distinguished as the Flag of Maryland; therefore, Section i. Be it enacted by the General Assembly of Maryland, That the flag heretofore, and now in use, and known as the Maryland Flag, be and the same is hereby legalized and adopted as the flag of the State of Maryland, which said flag is particularly described, as to coloring and arrangement, as follows: Quartered—the first and fourth quarters being paly of six pieces, or and sable, a bend dexter counter- changed; the second and third, quarterly, argent and gules, a cross bottonly countersigned; that is to say, the first and fourth quarters con- sist of six vertical bars alternately gold and black with a diagonal band on which the colors are reversed, the second and third consisting of a quartered field of red and white, charged with a Greek Cross, its arms terminating in trefoils, with the coloring transposed, red being on the white ground and white on the red, and all being as represented upon the escutcheon of the present Great Seal of Maryland.
