In Section 4, it says: tFor the

OF County Commissioners of New

The. junior college, offering two

CURED during the past decade.

Y. There is a demand and a
need for more education at less

Tor college is a response to the de-
mand. The location of a junior col

fering:
a. University preparation
b. Semi-professional terminal
course
c.. General terminal course.
"a. Although at one time East
ern North Carolina was the center
of plantation wealth, trade and
culture of the commonwealth,
the anteoellum East apparently did
not go in for higher education on a
major scale. AS a result Whining
ton, which was long the metropolis
and chief cultural center of the
state has NO colleges, and the
leading four-year colleges and uni
~versities in the State are located
west of the eastern border of Wake
County, Today, the graduates of
one of North Cardinals leading
secondary schools must look to 9TH
err sections of the State if they are
to continue their education.
rs. A c%ity-county area as pop
ulous as Wilmington and New Han
over County, and as far away from
the center of higher education in
North Carolina as the area is, un-
questionably could use a junior col
lege to great advantage.
IS. Many local boys and girls
will wish to benefit by additional
educational experience. Many will
attend a local institution that for
one reason Oh another would not
seek higher education in any other
section of the State. Others who
plan to attend a four-year college
or university will welcome the op-
portunity to spend the first two
years at home, and the money
saved in such cases will be left in
the community. Most surveys have
shown that if a student can remain
at home and attend college, he can
save 5000 to $500 and more per
year.
~. A Junior college would serve
the needs not only of high school
graduates but adults in the COM
munity as well.

be expected to spend from $500 to
$4,000 a year, or more. In addition
to this, the instructors and other
employees of the institution would
spend most of their salaries in Will
mlngton. Business men in any col
lege town may testify that their
volume is affected by the purchas-
ing power of college students and
employees.
I'll. The establishment of a
junior college in Wilmington would
give New Hanover County one OF
the finest publicly operated school
systems in North Carolina.
LAS a result of a growing interest
in the junior college movement and
the feeling that such an institution
was needed in New Hanover Coun-
ty and Southe astern North Carolina,
a bill was introduced in the last
General Assembly providing for
the establishment of a junior col
|lege in New Hanover County. The
General Assembly vested the
Board of Education of New. Han

al of the vote of the people, with
authority to establish such junior

deal in excess of the public funds
expended.
The scent tax provided for in
the Enabling Act would not have
to be permanent, since it is propos-
ed primarily to tide the school over
until it becomes more nearly self
supporting.
MANY of our citizens feel strong
ly that there is "a tremendous need
for such an institution, not only to

Vandenberg May 0uil
As Active Diplomat
After U. N. Session
Nor,h AmerIeon Newspaper AIIiane.

NEW YORK, Dec. 5.-When the
United Nations and the Council OF
Foreign Ministers complete their
present sessions here, it is under
stood that Senator Vandenberg, Re-
publican, of Michigan virtually Will
retire as an active member of the
American diplomatic team.
Senator Vandenberg would be
available for special missions, 1t is
said, but would not undertake any
more of the regular assignments
which have kept him away from his
senatorial duties for large part of
the last two years.
The Senator's decision to retire
from active diplomatic work, 1t Is
understood, will not affect his sup
port of bipartisan foreign policy, nor
does it spring from any diSsatisfac-
tion with the policies OF Secretary of
State Byrnes. He simply wants to
get back to active work in the Sem
ate, where he is slated to be acting
president and chairman OF the For
eign Relations Committee.
The Senator has exerted great in
f1uence on recent American diplo-
matte history:
He helped draft the Charter of the
United Nations after having been
requested by President Roosevelt to
90 to San Francisco as an American
representative
He took the lead in the Senate
movement which swung the Repub-
licans away from isolationism and
into support of the administrations
foreign policy.
At the London and New York
sessions of the U. N. General As
sembly, at the Paris and New York
meetings of the Council OF Foreign
Ministers and at the Paris Peace
Conference. Senator vandenberg
worked actively on the American
team. He sat in daily as the United
States representative on important
committees, comforting with Seere-
tary Byrnes and advising him in
Council sessions.
