Both sides voted negatively on the question, "Do you favor the plan if it aids Germany somewhat?" Those favoring the plan, however, voted only 52 percent to 31 percent against it; 82 percent of the op ponents voted no, with only 9 per cent supporting it. Although the total vote favored the plan, a majority believed that it would be of appreciable aid to Germany; 53 percent of those vot ing on this question answered In the affirmative. By a combina tion of the 47 percent who voted no, and a part of the group favor ing the plan even if it furnished appreciable aid, plan supporters were able to carry a slight ma jority on the question of favoring the plan. Only 6 percent of the students voted to support the plan provided that it furnished considerable aid to Germany, while all but 13.5 per- in; mum ii w mm WPT df I! is) GfOXUJ. iwiwiimiiii Willi! vhnsrra TO 1 p. m.

The plan was first introduced in the university by Ralph Schroeder, a local member of a collegiate branch of the national committee sponsoring the plan. Schroeder sought the support of various cam pus organizations. After an edi torial in the DAILY had supported the plan, opposition arose from many students. After much opinion on both sides had been expended, the DAILY together with the Student Union, sponsored a roundtable discussion. This brought out argu ments on both sides, but, when a vote was taken at the close of the meeting, no agreement could be reached as to the plan's merits. Opinion was divided, 11 to 11. Desiring the opinion of the whoel student body, the DAILY undertook this poll.
