LONDON-At the end Of four
years of war, every able bodied
adult in Britain-wIth the ex-
ception of those women whose
household duties make outside
work impossible-IS working al
a Job deemed by the Ministry
OF Labor 10 be essential 10 the
war effort.
More people are working than
have ever worked Beforehand
at higher wages. The average
British industrial male worker
today is earning about $28 a
week Women make about. half
of this And while this seems
low by American standards, il
is in itself something Of a prob
lem.
You walk, or cycle, 10 the bus
station. OF all wartime incon-
veniences, none inks Britishers
o than "queuelng-Waiting
in line. In manpower short
wartime Britain you queue for
everything from eating IN a
restaurant 10 seeing a movie.
The days first queue is al the
bus stop.
NEWSPAPER SMALL
Your trip is not made more
pleasant by the fact that II may
be impossible 10 get a paper TO
read enroute. Even with papers
cut 10 four pages 10 save news
print, there aren't enough pa
pers. Likely as not you cant
look out of the bus windows.
They we're covered during blitz
days with an opaque covering TO
keep them from SCATTERING
Factory workers usually get
one break which office employ
e do not a canteen On the
premises. This solves the lunch
problem, which is a major one
in most industrial areas. IN
less you can eat carly, YOU not
only wait in line for a table, but
when you do get one, YOU find
the menu stripped Of such few
chorce items as II once had.
Few experiences IN Britain
give Americans such an initial
shock as lunching at an average
British restaurant. Since laun-
dry is so slow and rough here,
napkins are distinctly a rarity
II there is a table cloth al all,
il is invariably spotted. Be
cause of the pottery and glass
ware shortage, you're more than
likely 10 get plates and cups
that are cracked. glasses with
nlcked rims.
For all its inconvenience,
restaurant-lunching is q God
send TO the average British fam
lily, because II doesn't require
the surrender OF any precious
food coupons.
Office work in wartime Bri-
tain is complicated by a variety
Of inconvenience, not the least
Of which is the rapid turnover
of younger personnel, which is
constantly being called TO mill
tary or factory jobs. Hiring
must be done through the Labor
Exchange, and once you've TAX
en- the plunge and hired an en-
ployee, you're stuck with him
because its next 10 impossible
TO fire him except an really ex-
ceptional cases.
Lesser office inconvenience

Chances are better than even
that on your arrival at your des-
tination, especially il it's after
7 p. m, you won't find a taxi
or a hotel room.
It's not working that's hard
in wartime Britain. It's just
the accessories to it,, like get
ting there and eating.

Lafayette College plans to ofter Q number of scholarships to worthy stdents from China and make the institution Q center of culture for Chinese students, President William Mather Lewis announced. 'i'fss
 A close link between Lafayette and Chinese universities already exc fists in the presence in China at this time of Professor Paul B. Eaton, head of the department of mechan- ic5l engineering at, Lafayette, who went to th&t country at the request of the Chinese government to assist her Industries. .%
 Tn a letter to President Lewis from Ci1ungklng, Dr. Chen Li-fu, minister of education of China, ex- pressed his appreciation for the re- lease of Professor Eaton by Lafays cite 50 that he may serve with tho Chinese ministry of education.
 "You will be interested in hear ing that Professor Eaton is now leca turing at National Central Univer- sity in Chungking, and he is ex- pected to make series of lectures at other universities in this country. Dr. Chen Li-fu wrote. Then h0 will visit some of our r1anufactorieg at which his valuable criticism and advice is to be requested, We are gratifed that he is working. among us and trust he will be of great service to China's engineering edl- cation and industry.
 "Since Professor Eaton is a repre- sentative of Lafayette College, may ! hope that i1enceforth q new link may grow between Lafayette and Chi- nese universities link which will enable the educators of the United States and China to help bring closer the intellectual fellow. ship between the two nations"
 Pointing out that many Chinese have studied at Lafayette in the past and that son of Q former high Chinese ofilcial Is now an uHl- dergraduate att the college, Presi- dent Lewis said: "If any country will deserve greater consideration from our cultural and educational in. stitutions after the war. it will be China. She has carried on a magni- ficent fight and we at Lafayette intend to give recognition to her valor by helping her develop lead- CTS for the future. We are happy that Yafayette, through Professor Eaton, is already doing sometnins for these brave people"
 Professor Eaton spent Q number of years in China prior to coming to Lafayette more than a decade ago.
