NEW YORK. Aug 1.-THE Ma
tion's steel industry In July turned
out 7,14s,s24 net tons of the ma
terial so vital to tanks. ships and
guns, the American Iron and Steel
Institute said today. 1t was the
largest July output in history.
July tonnage was a small increase
over the June total Of 7,o22,155 tons
and about per cent greater than
output of July, l94l.
In the first seven months of l942
the industry made 49,7l9.07l tons,
the institute said, per cent more
than in the comparable period last
year and within per cent OF pro-
duction during all of 1917, peak year
of the First World War.
July steel operations averaged 94.5
per cent of rated capacity. against
June operations at 964 per cent Of
smaller potential.

Kramer Junior High
Opening Delayed by
Materials Shortage
School, Being Built to
Accommodate l,l00, TO
Be Ready in January

With the acute shortage of critical
materials the chief cause for delay
in the construction of the Kramer
Junior High School in thickly popu-
lated Anacostia, the scheduled Sep
temher opening has been postponed
until the beginning of the spring
semester in February.
Difficulties encountered in obtain
ing steel priorities for the building
have created the greatest problem.
The school, which is being construct
ed along standard lines, will have to
do without all "doo-dads.' Steel
lockers are no longer on the market,
and unless some can be borrowed
from other sources, the school will
have to do without them. Wooden
trusses have. been substituted for
the steel in the foundation structure.
The Kramer School, being con-
structed to house 1,100 students dur
ing the school sessions, will have a
teaching staff of 38, all to be trans
ferred from the Junior division Of
the Anacostia Junior Senior High
School Even with this new school
to help relieve congestion in Ana
costa, both schools are expected to
enroll students beyond normal ca
pacity because of the wartime popu-
lation increase. However, there is
not expected to be any serious over
crOWding.
The building will consist of q
classrooms and II special rooms, in
Guiding laboratories, art rooms and
work shops, plus the standard ca
feterias, kitchen, recreation rooms,
gymnasiums, showers, lockers, Ii
brary and Office rooms.
The school is named in honor of
DR.. Stephen Elliott Kramer, former
first assistant superintendent of
schools in charge of Junior and
senior high schools, who died in
1896. DR.. Kramer, who spent most
of his life serving the District public
schools, held the position of first as
sistant superintendent for II years.
He had also served the District as
teacher, principal, director of inter-
mediate instructors. and supervising
prinsipal. Central High School, his
alma mater, was always his pet
interest, and once he returned to the
school as principal, at the same time
relinquishing a higher post, for SEN
timental reasons.

search. Nutrition education at home
and at school must be made demo-
cratic by developing a sense of per-
sonal responsibility and a belief that
improved nutrition will increase per-
sonal health and efficiency.
In a democracy, changes in cul-
tural patterns come only through
individual and group acceptance of
change. The pattern for a desirable
change in diet is being demonstrated
in the daily feeding of the American
soldier. The pattern is simple-a
protective diet of whole grain
cereals, adequate amounts of dairy
products, fruits, vegetables. meat and
eggs. If all school cafeterias, day
care centers for young children, pub
lie cafeterias and industry feeding
centers will use this some funda-
mental plan, and if individuals can
be convinced that the bonus paid by
good nutrition is to the individual
in terms of more buoyant living,
greater resistance to disease, fewer
working days lost. more zeSt and
comfort, a healthier Nation, with
improved food habits, will result.

Washington College Of Law
Beqins 47fh Fall Term

Washington College of Law will
begin its 47th fall term with the
opening of class sessions Wednes-
day. Registrations will be accepted
throughout this week.
The college, which was founded in
February, 1896, by DR.. Ellen Spencer
Mussey and Emma NJ. Gillett,
pioneer woman lawyers, was the
first educational law school in
the District of Columbia. In Sep
tember, 1899, the college adopted the
standards of the American Bar As
sociation and has gradually changed
its curriculum until this year it is
offering under the new standards
the complete four-year course lead
ing to the degree of bachelor of laws.
Another feature of the schedule
this year is the planning of all sub
jects on a semester basis, with final
examinations in January and June
making possible the completion of
any subject in one semester rather
than the extension of some courses
throughout the year This will en-
able students in Washington tenn
porarily on war work to take ad-
vantage of the study of law.
In addition to the full-tim mem
bers of the staff, the part-time fac
ulty members who will continue
their teaching assignments at the
college during the coming semester
include the supervising library con-
sultant, Mrs. Rebecca L. Notz, who
will conduct the class in legal bibli-
ography; John L. Laskey, assistant
United States attorney for the Dis
trict of Columbia, who will conduct
the freshman course in contracts

the health and nutrition program
now developing. The community
centered plan gains momentum
daily.
The homemaker will contribute to
victory by serving nutritional meals,
by cooperating with school and
community projects to develop bet
ter food habits, by conserving food
values through improved methods of
cooking and storing, by learning
more about buying in wartime, by
developing greater personal eff
cheney, by serving in community
programs and by being a good
neighbor. Nutrition has been ma
tionslly recognized as an important
adjunct of living. The family's food
habits have become a part Of the
all-out program.

home with their parents. The
parents suffer and the children
suffer"
The evacuation of the children
from some of the cities. DR. Davies
said, has had an indellible effect on
the curriculum of British schools.
Always relying largely on the judg-
ment and initiative of the indi-
vidual teacher rather than on a
fixed centralized curriculum, such
as prescribed in American schools,
he said, British educators have
utilized the war to the fullest de-
gree to vitalize the subjects taught
the children.
Planned subjects are thrust aside
when the problem of India arises
in the days news, DR., Davies ex-
planned. and the children are in
structed on the nature of this Brit
ish territory. Rationing of fruit,
eggs and meat is used to explain
to the children where food comes
from and difficulties of its shipping
and distribution. Rationing of cloth
ing and shoes is used to teach the
the value of conservation and the
source of raw materials. The SAL
wage programs are used to empha-
size the chemistry of manufacture
of not only war weapons but articles
in household use.
Curriculum Revised.
"The old type of curriculum" he
said, has disappeared. Through
tragic necessity we are using the
war and everything connected with
the war for education purposes
Some British educators at the be-
ginning of the war were in favor
of keeping curriculum as normal
as possible, according to DR.. Davies.
Education as usual" however,
failed when rationing came close
to every child and brothers and
fathers left for war fronts.
Educators turned then to show
ing each child the part he could
play in the war effort, he con-
tinued. Much of the instruction
took place on river banks, in the
open fields. in the barns of rural
England. Despite the fact schools
had been closed in London, how
ever, children came back to the city
again and again to be with their
parents. Schools had to be impro-
Evening star., 1942-09-13

vised for them as juvenile de-
linquency tripled almost overnight.
The one great advantage of evac-
uation, DR.. Davies has concluded,
has been the hostels which have
sprung up all over Britain for the
treatment of problem and diff
cult children. Physicians and
psychoanalysts had a chance as
never before, he explained, to care
for and study the young mind and
the ailments of the young which
were aggravated by separation from
parents.
