President Warns
Nation Can't Return
To lsoIationisf Stand
By the Associated Press.

by tne ASSOClAteQ FFoSB.
NEW HAVEN, Conn, Dec. 49,
Calling for the maintenance of a
sense of obligation, President
Charles Seymour of Yale warned
today that IF as it happened rs
years ago." We sink back into the
comfortable, irresponsible belief
that we are once more to be blessed
by the return to normalcy, the day
OF democracy will indeed face its
DOOM"
DR.. Seymour, addressing the Yale
School of Medicines graduating
class, most of whom sped to Army
and Navy assignments, declared:
1T is easy to see that an out
standing characteristic of the years
that followed the last war was a
sense of irresponsibility-every man
or every nation for itself and the
devil take the hindmost. The spirit
was obvious in the field Of inter-
national relations and today we are
paying the price for it.
I'VE in America would take no re-
sponsibility for the maintenance OF
peace; would make no sacrifice for
the welfare of the world that might
disturb our isolation; we would mind
our own business and let the rest
destroy themselves.
The British and the French, hav-
ing created at our inspirati ton q
league of peace, refused to accept
the responsibility of making it op-
crate as it had been designed" said
DR.. Seymour, who went to Paris in
1919 as a member of the American
Commission to Negotiate Peace, and
is an authority on history, special
izing in the background of the World
War and the Versailles Treaty.
Forty-nine students, including five
women, received medical degrees.

and recreations of these young peo-
ple," Prof Deibert says.
They are not only fraternizing
harmoniously with each other but
are making warm friendships with
their fellow American students, de-
spite their natural tendency to be
somewhat shy in strange country.
AS their college adviser, counsellor
and friend, Prof. Deibert has but
one unfulfilled wish concerning
them and their predecessors 1t is
a wish that they weren't quite so
eager about our American slang.
Praises High Grades.
1T makes such an incongruous
contrast to their more conservative
background of breeding and cul-
ture, their polished social demeanor
and their general bearing he la
mentS.
He emphasizes with pride, how
ever, the high standing the foreign
students at the university almost
invariably make in their studies
despite the natural language handi-
caps. In this connection he recalls
attention to the honorS which came
to Henri van Hoof, the young Hol-
lander, who after he had perfected
his English in speech course, was
the winner Of the international ora
torical prize while he was a student
at George Washington.
In addition to the number of
young people from Washington's
diplomatic families whom Prof. Del
bert advises about their educational
courses at the university, he also
confers with various secretaries and
attaches from the various embassies
and legations as to prospective stud
les in government and political
science.

the mutual good will and under
standing which prevails among the
foreign-born students at the univer-
sity and their fellow Americans,
Prof. Deibert believes.
American students may and do be-
long to the society, but their men,
bership quota is limited to Is per
cent of the entire membership. The
domination of the group by any
other country is also prevented by
the proviso that any one of its off,
GERS may not be a representative of
the same country for more than two
years in succession. The first presi-
dent was Cayetan Ngac Of the Phil
ippines.
The present one is Marie Louise
Ralph of the United States. Other
officers are: Vice president, Marie
Djordevitch, Yugoslovakia: treas
urer, Charles Daubanton, the Meth
erlands; corresponding secretary,
Aune Kangas, Finland; secording
secretary, Eugenia Schlaifsteyn,
Brazil, and historian, Lore Koppel,
born in Germany but now a citizen
of the United States.
The headquarters of the Interna-
tional Students Society is at the
universitys International House, at
202l G street NV There in one of
the homes, now owned by the uni
versity, Prof. Deibert has his Office
The first floor is given over to draw
ing rooms, where the International
Students Society holds its monthly
meetings and Prof. Diebert his teas.
At these gatherings the foreign stu
dents meet each other, members of
the faculty, the trustees; president of
the university, members of the dip
lomatic corps and other guests.
Music is Featured.
Music is almost invariably q feature
of such occasions, since many of the
foreign students are gifted musically
A native of Pennsylvnia, Prof. Del
bert has spent most Of his life in
Washington. Educated at Gettys-
burg College and at Harvard, he has
done graduate study at both Gren-
oble University and at the Sorbonne
in Paris, supplemented by two years
and five additional summers in fur
their foreign study abroad. He is a
fluent conversationalist in both
French and Spanish. and his foreign
students often credit him with be-
ing native of one of these coun-
tries.
A frequent contributor to profess
sional magazines and reviews, he is
member of Delta Epsilon Foreign
Service Fraternity, the American As
sociation of University Professors
and the Harvard and University
Clubs. His favorite pastimes are
tennis and bridge.

Faculty members report that

BY WICK

WATCHING THE MEN at Flor
ence the other day who were to
leave for induction into armed ser
vice, we were struck by the
thought of how much better it
would be for them if they had
place in which to go while wait
ing for the bus and perhaps some
coffee to drink and sandwiches to
MUNICH. 1t would mean a lot to
these men who have to leave II
some organization would furnish
them light lunch and invite their
families along. Here these fellows
were, milling about, some of them
already rather lonely at the
thought of leaving home and no
one at all interested in seeing
them off.
CERTAINLY WE AREN'T so
calloused already to these men go
ing off to fight for us that we go
blithely past them without more
than a casual glance in their di-
rection. At least. hope we aren't.
These fellows are giving up their
way of living for the time being,
are going out to train and eventu-
ally to move against the enemy.
Many won't come back. Don't
you think we could at least ar
range for them to have breakfast
or a lunch when they have to
leave? It's something to think
about.
COMING BACK ON THE BUS
the other day from Florence, we
watched lively, imaginative
youngster ply the driver with ques-
tions. The thing we noticed most
ly was the boy as contrasted to
the other passengers, all adults,
whose faces were for the most
part impassive, some showing no
interest at all iii what was going
on, each person wrapped in his
own thoughts, while the boy was a
bundle of boundless curiosity and
energy. How quickly we lose that
lively interest in things and people
and become narrow and confined
to our own little problems if we
but let ourselves.
If YOU HAVE BEEN WATCH
ING the daily papers lately you
The Coolidge examiner., 1943-12-10

know that the gasoline shortage is
no Joke. In spite of what some
persons have circulated, that there
is all kinds of gasoline stored up,
the oil companies are advertising
in page-size ads that the west
coast gasoline situation is critical.
1t is stated that the Pacific Coast
petroleum industry is turning out
80 per cent more gasoline today
than it did in 1910. Yet in spite
of this. the west is facing a gaso-
line shortage because the Pacific
theatre of war depends almost en-
tirely on the west coast for its
supply of gasoline.
THE ADVERTISEMENT puts it
this way:
when the Japs took the Dutch
East Indies, and the submarine
menace cut off South America, the
major job of supplying the Allied
Forces in the Pacific fell square
ly on the West Coast. This meant
that almost every gallon of 100
octane used by plane in the Solo
mons, and practically every barrel
of fuel oil consumed by destroy
ers off the Aleutians, had to come
from California refineries.
when you realize that the gas
tanks of one Flying Fortress hold
enough gasoline to supply 23 "a"
cars for one year; that destroy
er steaming under forced draft
from San Francisco to Sydney,
Australia, burns up enough fuel oil
to heat 1920 homes for year, you
can get an idea of what this
means"
II. L. MENCKEN in "a New
Dictionary of Quotations" gives Us
these definitions for the week:
A bore: One who, when you
ask him, How are your" tells
you.
A boy: An appetite with a skin
pulled over it.
A friend: One who dislikes the
same people you dislike.
A genealogist: One who traces
your family as far back as your
money will go.
A grapefruit: A lemon that had
chance and took advantage of it.
A husband: Merely lover with
two days growth of beard, his
collar off and a cold in the head.
Courtship: A man pursuing a
woman until she catches him.
History: Something that never
happened, written by man who
wasn't there.
Home: Where you slip in the
bath tub and break your neck.
Love: The most fun you can
have without laughing.

Election of all triple A commit

chairman of the Pinal county Ag-
ricultural Conservation associa-
ton.
Meetings will be held at Cool
idge at the justice of the peace
office, at Eloy at justice of peace
office and at Casa Grande at Pinal
county AAA office. Meetings will
commence at 10 a. m.
Committeeman elected for the
1914 calendar year will take office
Immediately upon their election.
Procedure covering elections will
be the same as that followed last
year. An attendance sufficient to
elect members needed will be ex-
pected, Storey states.
At the meetings, many subjects
should be discussed. Production
goals for 1914, the transportation
program, rationing of farm ma
chinery and equipment, including
building supplies and agricultural
facilities, issuance of farm slaugh-
ter permits, and the 1914 agricul-
tural conservation program should
be included.
Recent changes in administra-
tive responsibility place added du-
ties on county AAA committees.
These assignments are direct and
important war jobs, and their as
signments to AAA makes it more
important than ever for farmers
