in his own institution and several
fellow college presidents in whom he
had confided predicted failure for the
census, because they said that alumni
of any university would not reply to
a questionnaire of any sort seeking
specific information about their jobs
and salaries. However, this did not
deter Dr. Elliott.
The job census sought ito know
the raw facts of the life situation into
which our graduates are now going"
as President Elliott pointed out in his
Introductory statement in the newly
published report.
An interesting picture of the de-
mand for graduates of Purdue is
found in the figures on the time of
obtaining employment. In the busy
days Of 1929, exactly 20 per cent Of
the graduating class of more than 500
had employment by commencement
day; 59.6 per cent had positions
within two weeks. and IT'S per cent
more had work within three months
Leaving only % per cent of the
class to find employment later.
That year the personnel department
of the engineering schools had an
average Of three jobs for each Of the
approximately 800 engineering grad
yates. Employers came to the Purdue
campus for men as they never had
come before.
In sharp contrast to this outstand-
ing employment record Of 1929, the

feminist Leader Gives
Spanish Women Advice

MADRID R.-Free legal counsel
and personal advice for mismated
wives and single women with love
problems is the purpose of q new
bureau established here under the
direction of the noted Spanish fem
ininist leader and former deputy to
the Cortes, Clara Campoamor.
The bureau, in the Women's Uni
versity Association Building, welcomes
women, particularly poor women who
cannot afford t. pay for legal advice.
A corps of women attorneys, some
single, some married, several with
children, interview each applicant
privately, and there are no records
kept of the interviews.
Most of those who make use of this
service, says Miss Campoamor, are
women separated from their mates
and seeking some way to make their
husbands support them.
Miss Campoamor sees q significant
index to the character of Spanish
women Is the fact that all OF them
insist upon keeping their children
with them.

1882 graduates, coming only three
years later, met with a different situa-
ton. Only per cent actually had
contracted with employers by COM
mencement day, but 279 per cent
more had work within two weeks, and
204 per cent more, or little more than
half of the entire class, at the end
end Of three months. Practically every
one of the remaining members of the
class, however, found employment dur
ing the next II months despite the
widespread shortage of jobs.
Technical Men Sought.
This general situation was some
what improved in 1888, and by 1884
the Purdue graduates were finding
jobs in increasing numbers; 81 per
cent had positions before commence
ment, 325 per cent more within two
weeks and 35.4 per cent more by the
end Of three months.
According to the job census. the
unemployment curve for Purdue grad
yates hit bottom in 1882 and has
shown improvement since then
Already many members of the 1885
class have been interviewed by en-
ployers who seek men with technical
training, and several score have ac-
cepted positions they will assume upon
graduation.

yates obtain? Training in technical

it. the French are bound to profit
more extensively than any other peo-
pie. 1t is at least worth recalling, too,
that it was out Of a situation as des-
perate as that of recent months that
the truce of Locarno emerged decade
ago. And while Locarno did not bring
permanent peace it gave Europe the
only years of tranquility it has known
since 1914.
In fact, for the first time since he
came to power not only has Hitler
spoken in the fashion of Stresemann,
but as far as words could do it he has
made Stresemann's policy his own.
And Stresemann was the single states

Vacations and Notice of DISCHARGE
Proposed for Swedish Workers

STOCKHOLM (P.-Definite vaca-
tion periods for every worker in Swe-
den. from laborer to white collarite,
along with regulated notice of dis
charge and provision for sick leave,
have been proposed to the govern
ment by special committee on social
reforms.
The proposal is one of the most
sweeping in SWeden's long history OF
social regulations. and has the par
ticular aim of giving better protection
to salaried workers outside the scope
of trade union organization and col
lective bargaining.
While it is considered doubtful that
the present Socialist government will
pass the suggested reform in all Its
provisions, the proposal is regarded
here as indicative of Sweden's "eco-
nomic security program of the fu-
ture.
In its discussion of vacations, sick
leave, and notice of discharge, the
committee has divided the populace
into three groups: 0) Salaried work.
ers who have special training or quail
fications, (2) salaried workers in gen
eral, 80 persons engaged in physica
labor.
In the matter of notice of dis
charge the first group would have q
minimum period of two months, such
period to be extended a month for
each three years of service, up to a
maximum of six months. The second
group would have a minimum period
of one month, extended by one month
for each five years Of service, with the
same maximum of six months.
For the third group, including the
ordinary laborer, the minimum period
for notice of discharge would be one
week, to be extended by one week for
each three years of service up to
maximum period of 13 weeks.
In the matter of vacations the first
group would be lawfully entitled to
three weeks each year, the second
group to two weeks, and members OF
the third group to one week. Ordi-
nary workmen in Sweden are now en-
titled to four days vacation with pay
each year.

vestigation by committee represen-
tative of both workers and employers.

stirs up international animosities and
threatens thereby the peace of the
world. Economic isolation, and self
contentment are now the policies OF
the bad neighbor Washington's ad-
vice against entangling alliances, in
being translated into these terms, has
been given a meaning which he un-
questionably never intended it to have.
The world faces in this crucial hour a
momentous decision. 1t Is choice
between enlightened liberalism and
selfish economic nationaliSm."
He, himself. has chosen the road of
enlightened liberalism for the United
States, as witness his efforts at the
Montevideo conference for a general
reduction of customs rates, his con-
slant endeevors for the elimination of
artificial barriers to commerce. and
his reciprocal trade pacts with foreign
countries-4 of which have already
been completed, and IA others being
now in the process of negotiation.
And it is for this choice even more
than for the political improvements,
that the commercial representatives
of the Latin American nations paid
tribute last week to the United
States.
Change Is Striking.
As they did so. some of them who
were also delegates to the previous
Pan-American Commercial Confer
ence, held at Washington in 1881,
probably recalled the hurried and al
most impolite manner in which a
Cuban suggestion criticizing high
trade barriers was then sidetracked
and filed, for fear Of offending what
were at the time the traditional pref
erences of the United States for high
hated protectionism. A change must
have, indeed, taken place, when today
the Latin American statesmen and
the Secretary of State Of the United
States find themselves expressing their
liberal commercial policies in almost
identical language.
Although the agenda of the Buenos
Aires conference did not include the
discussion of financial matters, the
Latin American delegates who spoke

relations probably, also, had in mind
the lenient and sensible attitude OBJ
served by the Roosevelt-Hull admin
istration toward the temporary nom
payment of Latin American debts,
forced by the depression. In striking
contrast with previous similar oc-
currences, there have been this time
no reminders of the responsibilities
of the United States to help her sister
republics keep up their obligations, p"
as Secretary Knox used to say, nor
big stick" threats or armed landings
to secure payment. The United States
Marines, at least for the time being,
have ceased to be collecting agents
for the money changers.
In financial as well as in COM
mercial policies, the United States
which the Latin American delegates
to the Buenos Aires conference
greeted last week, was q different
United States than the one they faced
at previous continental meetings.
Hence the difference in the greeting

8 THE Buenos Aires Pam

3 THE BuenOS aires ran.
n American Commercial Con-
II ference opened last week, with
4 \ delegates from the 81 repub-
lies of the Western Hemi-
sphere attending, and the Presidents
of Argentina and Brazil and the
foreign ministers of various South
American nations sitting as special
guests, press correspondents could not
fail to notice the atmosphere of cor
diality and good will toward the
United States which marked the cere-
monies.
From the Latin American statesmen
present came words of recognition and
appreciation for the good neighbor"
policy of the Roosevelt Hull admin
istration. Foreign Minister Saavedra
Lamas Of Argentina. long critic OF
past imperialistic policies, devoted a
large part of hiss keynote speech to
praise of the new deal" in inter-
American relations which the changed
attitude of the United States had
brought about.
It is not only for its reputation
of armed Intervention and the greater
respect for Latin American SOW
ereignty which 1t has so far shown,
that the Roosevelt Hull administration
was publicly praised by the Southern
statesmen gathered at Buenos Aires.
There was another change in the
old policies of the United States,
which, at a commercial conference,
deserved recognition even more prop
erly than did the good neighbor-
illness" and the consideration lately
shown Latin America in political mat
tiers. In its commercial aspects the
Latin American policy Of the United
States has undergone change just
as fundamental and far-reaching,
since Cordell Hull became Secretary
of State, as any that may be cited
in the political field.
Back Turned on Protectionism.
Only a few days before the opening
of the Buenos Aires parley, Secretary
Hull broadcast another Of his frequent
appeals for the restoration of inter-
national trade in terms which are
highly expressive Of that change. Ex-
planning the reversal Of the old stand
of high protectionism and isolation,
and the adoption in its stead of the
program of reciprocal trade agree
ments which the State Department is
at present endeavoring to carry out,
Secretary Hull minced no words in
emphasizing the ethical significance
Of the change.
Washington advised the United
States to avoid entangling alliances, he
said, but Washington never advocated
economic nationalism for his country.
I'm Washington's time the sins of ma
tions were almost wholly the sins of
commission. A nation which lived
solely unto itself was not q bad neigh
bor. The economic integration of the
world has totally altered that situa-
ton. The sins Of omission today rank
equal with the sins Of commission. A
nation which now lives solely unto
itself is . drag on civilization, in
creases the dangers Of its own posi-
ton, both economically and politically

The W. rld
AT Glance

Central Press staff Writer

NEW YORK. NOV. rs. Many
writer's are exclaiming that the
6r1t1Sh gained a victory" over ia
pan IN China when China abandon
ed the silver standard and went on
. managed currency that ties IN
with the British governed cur
rency Of Shanghai. The Shanghai
currency in turn, is tied to the
British pound.
But the victory was over the
United States, too. And II is all
blamed on the United States.
Not only does q great Chinese
market seem lost, but the Chinese
nation itself has been impoverish-
ed by the American silver-purchas-
ing policy, according to critics.
The Whyfore
When the United States govern
ment went into silver purchasing -
one Of the schemes to raise prices
the price OF the metal became so
high that IL began flowing out OF
China. Thus. China's currency was
debased, capital fled abroad and
bankruptcies overwhelmed the
country.
Much Of the silver fled to Japan.
And Japan rapidly was approaching
an economic reapproachement'
economic domination in China.
It looked as If Japan could win the
impoverished Chinese nation by
economic means rather than with
military measures (Which are more
sostly).
British economic influence in the
Far East was threatened.
The British government sent its
shrewdest financial envoy - Sir
Frederick Leith-Ross - to the Far
East. He at first tried TO interest
Japan in a joint effort to stabilize
Chinese currency. Japan rebufted
him.
The British, however. are known
tpr their polite persistence. Sir
Frederick patiently worked on the
Chinese Marking government.
There were rumors that he even
promised a 50-million-dollar British
exchange sterilization loan but
with a stout string tied to il. In
return. the British are understood
10 have demanded a virtual monop-
Oily on the reconstruction Of China's
railway system.
Japan was caught off guard when
China suddenly announced ii had
gone off the silver standard. When
she rubber her eyes and looked
around she found the Chinese cur-
rency tied to that OF the British
ports IN China.
Thereupon Japan, in her anger
again began military aggression IN
China. You will recall how a jap
Anese sailor was shot in Shangha
and how Japan Immediately reoccg
pied the Chinese quarter.
AS for the United States, ii still s
rubbing its eyes.
Events Favor Japan
In the meantime. events IN Eu-
, 1935-11-26

roe continue to favor Japan and to
work against Russia.
France and Germany seem to be
l-ing up together against the Sow
Il. That virtually would reunite the
Gmainder Of Europe against Russia
unless the British should tip the
Gale u way or another. The Brit
SD, however, fear the Soviet more
han they do Japan, for India ana
Egypt are vulnerable to the Com
muniStS.
Germany seems to be aggressive
in its attitude toward Russia. It IS
Eumored that Germany has sent 81
new submarines into the Baltic. And
seven submarines Of much larger
type will be added before the end Of
he year. Which means that Ger
many will be supreme IN the Baltic.
Thus the G. S. S. r., with Japan TO
hamper on the east, and the Europ-
san countries on the west, really is

What's To Be Done?

The judiciary committee of the General Assembly has thrown the burden of the proof upon Governor Wilbur L. Cross. It recognizes the fact that for three Januarys he has been calling upon the Legislature to start plans to reorganiZe the state govern ment. Twice such q suggestion was re- jected, mainly through republican con trol of the Legislature. Today there seems to be a tendency even upon the part of republicans, to consider the matter seri- ously.
 At any rate Senator J. Kenneth Brad. ley of Westport, chairman of the judiciary committee, has asked Governor Cross to give q definite program of reorganization to this legislative body. This would eX- pedite savings to the state, in the opinion of the republican leader of the Senate. The committee already has taken under consideration the governors bill calling for creation of commission to study the situation in our state government.
 From time to time there have been ideas propounded by the governor on this topic. We know that many of the special com missions and boards now existing in the state government would be entirely elim- mated or the duties combined with those of others. Only a week or so ago such T list was made public in the interests oi t'1e measure that Governor Cross is so anxious to have passed. Perhaps the will ingness of the republican legislators may do away with the necessity of calling upon commission to make study of the gov ernmental framework.
 If a commission were named this year, it would not report back until just prior to the 1887 session. That would mean no savings would be affected for another hiennium If certain plans could be put into effect by this Legislature we would get an immediate saving. We think Gov ernor Cross will probably leap at the invi- tation of the republican leaders and make specific suggestions. It looks as if they would be accomplished if he merely adds the weight of his position to them.
