FOR PRIVATE ENTERPRISE

The San Francisco Chamber of Commerce has gone on record vigorously opposing Federal bureau trends in regard to the handling of public lands for mining development.
 The Chamber adopted resolution protesting reported plans to expand the Government leasing system of public lands to those lands which valuable for their mineral content, ito require Federal recording of location notices and proofs of annual labor and to exact royalties from and extend the bureaucratic control of the General Land Department the free enterprise of pros pectors and locators who for nearly century past have been responsible for the discovery and production of the valuable mineral resources of this country"
 The Chamber further protests the reported policy of the General Land Office in protesting all applica tons for mineral patents in mining regions requiring technical and unreasonable demonstration of mineral values in advance of full development of the prop critics where the location of claims with respect to

Problems for Colleges
Cincinnati Enquirer

A most interesting survey recently completed among students in the Army Specialized Training Unit now studying at the University of Cincinnati. As pr. L. A. Pechstein, director of the program de- cared the results indicate that the United States will face vital and tremendously increased problem in higher education the is over
 Of the 600 who expressed themselves in the survey, 82 per cent said they expected to take sort of college work when peace returns Since the University of Cincinnati be considered repre- sentative of colleges all the country the results here probably are true reflection of the hopes of more than 10000 specialized training students now studying in various institutions of learning.
 The questioned in the survey come from all of the states in the Union. They vary in ages from Is to 38. Of the group which had been graduated from high schools, but which had not yet attended college 77 per cent expressed desire to continue with their education when they get out of uniform. The who had been in college before entering the service voted 89 per cent in their hope that they could return again to their schools. Almost 50 per cent of the tranees who hold college degrees hope to take advance courses when the is over.
 If this survey represents true cross-section of men of similar condition throughout the armed ices there will be tremendous increase in college and university enrollments as soon as the Army Navy and Marines begin mastering out That this demand for education must be met goes without saying America always has prded herself offering educational advantages to all youths with enough ambition and energy to seek them.
 Conditions after the war, however, will be much different than they have been before What the financial conditions of schools will be now can tell. There probably will be a deficiency in trained professors and instructors to the demands and the tolls of And the increased number of applying students will add much to the problem
 Educators must begin planning for the years ahead, with full realization of the various hurdles they must if they to continue in the Amer ican tradition of making higher learning easily available to all who seek it.

LITTLE BUSINESS CHAMPION

Inside fact about the appoint ment of Maury Maverick as head of the vitallly important Smaller War Plants Corporation of WIPE was that White House advisers favored someone else, and it was only the conservative business men and Republicans inside the War Production Board who put Mayer ick across.
 This will be news to lot of peo- pie in Texas and Congress who for years viewed Maverick as a wild, lone steer In. Congress, he was a tough, hard-hitting New Dealer, introduced the Presidents Supreme Court bill and fought for all FDR's s reforms. As Mayor of San An tonic, he cleaned up the slums and rode rough-shod over so many poli- tioians that, at the next election they kicked him out.
 Then he came to Washington to head the Government Division of the War Production Board. Many people viewed Maury as a lame duck Congressman occupying a cushy spot on the public payroll But they didn't know Maverick. He has done one of the outstanding Jobs inside the WIPE, has won the confidence and respect of big shot businessmen who, politically differ with him completely.
 When it came to appointing a new head of the Smaller War Plants Corporation. White House advisers wanted Morris Cooke, former Rural Electrification Administrator ar excellent man. The Senate Small Business Committee, staunch cham pions of little business, also want ed Cooke and put up long fight against Maverick.
