What a College Needs

Columbia University is trying some thing new this year in it's annual appeal for alumni contributions. Deans of the various schools and colleges have made lists of things needed in certain depart ments and ask specific gifts to meet them. The idea is to avoid making these appropriations in it's budget, releasing university funds for other purposes. Alumni are expected to be pleased. Gifts may be of type which can carry class numerals or club names and so rebound to the credit of the donors.
 Items on the faculty lists are fascinat- ing. The college of physicians and sur geons, for example, wants $500 to buy mice, guinea pigs, rabbits and Rhesus monkeys for special work in the study of infection and inmunization. Items wanted by other departments include canoes, typewriter, pipe organ, new furniture, laboratory equipment and funds for weekend visits of prep school boys.
 Alumni sometimes wonder what the dear old college does with all the money it collects. Columbia is telling 'em. If the "gift project" works there, other colleges and universities will try 1t.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1936-06-26
French Gold Crisis

The French government still refuses to devalue it's franc, which was cut to about one-fourth it's old value a decade ago when nearly all foreign currencies were tumbling Resistance of bankers and creditors and other sound-money groups is too great. Instead, it threatens gold lloarders and moves to get all the loose gold into it's treasury, as has been done in this and other countries.
 France still has the second-largest store of gold in the world, but it has been draining away fast lately, chiefly to Eng land and America. The United States, the principal benefactor - if there is really any genuine benefit in it - now has most of the money-gold in the world, and more is coming right along.
 France, Italy, Germany and the lessor countries are all famished for gold It is time for their modern alchemists, who use vast electric power to blow up atoms and reorganize them, to start making gold from quicksilver or lead, if they are ever yoing to. Some experimenters have done { already, but only in minute quantities. t they could do it on big scale in any country, that country might quickly steady it's currency and pay off its debts.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1936-06-26
Figure This Out

Every year just about this time the Health Department of New Haven issues warning about bathing in the waters of New Haven harbor and the rivers that empty in it. Pollution of the waters is declared to be at such point that there is grave danger to those using these wa terS for swimming of contracting con- tagious diseases. We have watched from year to year the Health Boards drive against such water pollution and Won- dered when practical results would be se- cured.
 Now the funny part of this situation is that despite the boards virtual ban on swimming, the Park Board of New Haven maintains three established beaches within the boundaries that are set up as posted by the Health Board. The Park Board officials and members argue that the beaches would be used, even if they abandoned them, so they figure that by providing life-savers and other fea- lures of regularly-maintained municipal beaches some good is done, which is prob ably true.
 It's question, though, whether death by drowning is to be protected and not death by disease. Sooner or later deaths attributable to bathing in such polluted waters as those of the harbor are going to result The complaints then will far outweigh the good things that will be said about the city caring for the beaches through the many years when there were no deaths from causes traceable to the condition of the waters. It's a difficult problem and as we have said time and again, one Connecticut must face in united fashion sooner or later.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1936-06-26

The retirement of A. Atwater Kent from the field of radio set manufacturing comes rather as a shock to this trade. He does not approve of the present-day methods adopted by radio companies to put their products across and hence is ceasing to manufacture the set that sev- eral years back in the hey-day of set manufacture was leading the pack, acc cording to trade statistics. This decision will surprise many, but we don't presume that it will have any marked effect on that particular type of business, other than perhaps shooting it up bit. There aren't so many idealists in the world as this. Kent did many great things for radio, both in manufacture and broad casting.
