LONDON Feb. ; QNS).-
Wounded soldiers and nurses from
the Philippine Islands arrived at
an Australian port today with
tales Of Japanese bombing attacks
upon their hospital ship just out

mercy ship from noon until late
afternoon on December &, the day
after a pan started the Pacific

SCHOOLS FACING
CRISIS IN WAR
SMALL INDEPENDENT AND DE-
NONIINATIONAL COLLEGES
HAVE TROUBLES

The strain of world conflict Is
bringing financial crisis to some of
the nations small independent and
UNCONVENTIONAL colleges
But despite sagging enrollments, &C
CELEBRATED educational programs and
other wartime problems only a rela-
lively few of the smaller institutions
of higher learning will be forced to
close their doors, and number may
survive the war without encountering
financial reverses. These were among
majority of opinions of educators
representing small independent and
UNCONVENTIONAL schools.
The faster program-packing four
years of college work into three by
operating clasSes-was viewed by some
commentators as a menace, and by
others as boon to the small schools,
many of which have speeded UP their
regular educational procedure.
The accelerated program" observed
President Fred c. Wiegman of Mid
land college at Fremont, Neb., will
affect Midland college seriously. Stu
dent income will decrease because of
war demands on youth, and an in
creased salary budget Is required.
During the Revolutionary war, the
struggling colleges of Harvard, Yale,
Princeton, Kings NOW Columbia) and
others, were virtually forced into
closing, having insufficient endow-
ments and church appropriations to
maintain themselves.
An analogous situation confronts
UNCONVENTIONAL schools. Nothing is
gained by mincing words at this cru
cial time: either the churches move
quickly and thoroughly to the support
of their colleges or history will repeat
itself and Christian higher education,
as we know it now, will pass under
other control than that of the
churches"
On the other hand the University
of Tulsa (Okla), private institution
with an enrolment of about 600, as
serted that acceleration, which the
school adopted in 1941, might prove to
be lifesaver for the small colleges,
because many students undoubtedly
will continue their education under
this plan until they are called into
military service, when otherwise they
might drop out of school because
graduation appeared impossible"
Praise for faster education likewise
came from President Hornwell Jacobs
of Oglethorpe university at Atlanta,
who expressed hope it would be con-
tinued after the war. 1t should have
been put in long ago because of its
efficiency and the saving of time it
allows students in preparing for life"
he declared.

Your Victory Garden
Space Is Saued When Cucumbers Climb

They can be given q mulch or trenches
can be dug a foot away from the vines
on either side Of the row to be filled
with water to soak into the soil.
Cucumbers like good soil but revel
in one Of fairly light texture which
is easily warmed provided it can be
furnished with supply Of moisture.
The time to give cucumbers their
heavy feeding is at the start OF their
career. Apply plant food at the rate
OF one level tablespoonful to one
square foot Of soil 1t is not needed
SO much in their later career. 1t is
possible to get so much nitrogen into
the soil in the way Of humus and fer
tilizer that the plant will run too
luxuriantly to leaf and vine II the
vine seems to be running too heavily

shoots and head it back to poisoning
and fruiting. Always pick the first Gu
cumber promptly to encourage the
vine to bring on the rest of the family.

Eastman Is Not Demanding
That Fairs Be Postponed =

Joseph B. Eastman. defense trans

the postponement of state and county
fairs. according to definite informa-
ton received from Washington by Dan
B. Thurber, manager Of the North
Montana State fair
Eastman said he was merely sug-
costing that fairs be called off where
it was feasible, to conserve rubber and
gasoline, adding that the matter of
such proposed postponements rests en-
tirely with the local fair boards.
Thurber said that the fair board
wishes to cooperate with the govern
ment and that If the latter issues an
order to postpone the fair the order
of course, would be obeyed, but in the
absence Of such an order and with
Eastmans position clarified, plans are
rapidly progressing for the holding of
the fair at Great Falls Aug. 3-8.

Basis for Ceiling
On Meat Is Revised

The office of price administration
has revised the basis for ceiling prices
on beef and veal at the packer and
wholesale levels.
The regulation, effective July 10,
provides that the ceilings for each
grade of carcass and quarter of beef,
or carcass and saddle of veal, shall
be price no higher than the lowest
price at which each individual mer-
chandiser sold at least 30 percent of
his total quantity of that grade dur
ing March 1928, 1912.
The OPA order is expected to re-
lieve considerable pressure against re-
tail beef and veal price ceilings, Off
Gals explained.
Under the general maximum price
regulation, fixing beef and veal CELL
ings at the peak March levels, OPA
reported, certain wholesalers and
packers had ceiling prices which ex-
ceeded the actual prices that most re-
tailers had paid during March-and
on which, they, in turn had based
their retail prices.

The Montana fish and game DEPART
ment will deliver salt for elk by air.
The department wanted to move
5. tons of block salt into the Sun
river area for the elk herd In order
to draw the elk off vital winter pas
lures.
Ten mules and a packer could do
the job in SO days. For $40 less than
the packer offered, the department
found it could have the salt flown
into the area and dropped from planes
in to 10 hours. The salt was to be
delivered by air.
