Il see in the success of this new
plan the realization of four great aims
Or ideals" commented DR.. Hullihen.
First, international understanding !
It will be bettered; second, American
or effectiveness in foreign ]
rade will be increased; third, the
American vision of world affairs will 1
De broadened; and, fourth, American
college education will be stimulated '
md iberalized."
The University of Delaware wishes S
o get the plan so thoroughly launch
ID that it will be adopted by a suffi-
iently large number of American and
Oreign institutions. "a very small p
lumber of students, perhaps FIVE"
DR.. Hullihen, from each of NJ
he 100 of the 400 colleges in the Unit
d States would amount to 500 stu
ents each year studying in foreign n
Ountries. Y
Plan Received With Approval
"The plan has received the approval =,
DR.. Capen, director of the American +
ouncil on Education; Prof. ChaMen- 4,
IS, representative of French universi- NJ
es in America, and Secretary Hoover -
nd many other educators and busi- O'
9ss men.
Mr.. Hoover, in an interview, stated Fl
at he considered the plan sound and
lluable; that it avoided or success
lily met the reasons for failure of
her foreign study plans; that our RI
an is the first one to endeaVOr to fit
reign study into the normal and ac- Sa
pied scheme of American education.
HE told me there is nothing the Pr
1ted States needs more at this time
an 5OOO young men, trained as they Ma
'uld be according to our plan He
mitted that the United States can't RI
in the markets of the world through
commercial organizations and Ma
'thods alone. The men for the un- :
rtaking at present are lacking. CIR
Our conviction is that the great
Use of international good will, upon An
ich the future of the world depends,
Il never be realized by essays and Co,
nor even by leagues or as
'iations of nations, but that in the Z
analysis it can only come
ough better personal knowledge 1ol
one country by another, and that i; z
h constructive effort, having that ~,
its goal, however, insignificant IS II
= seem its beginnings, deserves 10y TrC
support" ~ n
