D. c. Has Surplus
Of Talent, Douglass
Tells Luncheon

The importance of the Nations
Capital as a center Of learning and
educational opportunity was dis
cussed by DR.. Paul F. Douglass,
president Of American University,
yesterday before the civics-educa-
ton section of the Twentieth Gen.
tury Club at luncheon at the Y. W..
G. A.
Pointing out that Washington has
suddenly become vivid concrete
international symbol the speaker
said that it is also becoming CEN
ter of the leading minds of all the
culture in the world
We do not yet realize the gigantic
array of talent centered here" he
said, land We cannot as yet handle
it,"
DR.. Douglass declared that Amer
ican University is trying to develop
a program giving ideals of citizen
ship as he told of groups of univer-
sity students who come here for
study.
With established educational in
stitutions yearly attracting more
students, all centers Of learning here,
including the art galleries, are given
increasing problems of education to
work out, the speaker asserted.
"All are trying to discover how the
student who becomes master of
himself can use Washington" he
added. The problem of education
today is to teach people how to live
in these times rather than to en-
phasize the classics of days gone by"
Following the meeting, a motion
picture, For Freedom" recently
released by the Community Chest,
was shown Mrs. Edgar B. Merritt,
section chairman, presided.
