studied battle damage to British
warships and also made a survey Of
antisubmarine warfare, returning

The improvement Of American
education is neither privilege nor
a problem for the profession alone.
It is privilege of every citizen to
receive from recognized profession
an education adapted to his indi-
vidual needs. It is problem Of the
American people in cooperation
with those who staff our educational
institutions. Our schools represent
the aspirations of good parents for
the lifelong happiness of their
children.
War Shifted Populations.
We need to emphasize the con-
cept of citizenship as national as
well as State relationship OF the
individual to Government. The ma
tional aspect of citizenship was
made clearer by the war. The Fed
eral Government summoned to de-
fense of country American youth
from every State and community.
This service was one of distinctly
national citizenship.
The war was responsible for a
shift of population from one State
to another to meet the needs of the
war industries. This shift, of course,
was merely an intensification OF
migrations already encouraged by
paved highways, automobiles, econ
omy of travel by rail, the develop
ment of bus liness and airways to
every part of the continent.
Our population is a mobile one.
Ten years before the war one-fourth
of all native Americans resided in
States other than those in which
they were born. The educational
inadequacies of one State may soon
be reflected in the economic and
cultural status of another. Cultural
liabilities of one State never become
the assets of another. The Federal
Government thus has tremendous
stake in the education of all Amer
ican youth.
Our schools reflect the hope of all
citizens for the maintenance of the
democratic way of life and for the
future of the American people. The
improvement of the schools Is the
task of all of us working together.

Swedes were received with great
hospitality, and the Swedish war
ship attracted much attention,
says the commander of the ship,
Henning Hammargren, on arrival
in Gothenburg. About 10000 per-
sons visited the ship in the var
ious ports, guided during their
tour around the cruiser by special
records in English, Spanish, and
Portuguese.
The "Gotland", which has a
displacement of about 5000 tons,
was launched in 1888 at the Gotta
verken shipyard. She was origin
ally built as an aircraft-carrying
cruiser but was in 1914 converted
into an anti-aircraft cruiser with
a large number of AA guns.

Farley In Oslo
Set For Youth
Of so Nations

More than 1900 delegates from
more than 60 nations are expected
to attend the World Conference of
Christian Youth scheduled to be
held in Oslo, Norway, in July.
This is the second conference
of it's kind. The first met in AM
sterdam in 1889, just before the
beginning of World War II.
All that time, it was hoped that
world organization of youth, in
spired by Christian ideals, would
be formed as the outcome of the
deliberations. But these hopes
were not to be realized and many
of the Oslo delegates and leaders
will be meeting after six years of
isolation and suffering.
Like it's predecessor, the Oslo
Conference will seek answers to
the important question of how,
through a deeper understanding of
Christianity, world more worthy
of the future may be built from
the ruins of the past.
Careful preparations are being
made for the July meeting. Dele
gates are being specially chosen
from the various national study
groups, which have been examin-
ing for months past a series of 10
questions embodied in small book
let's.
The groups have been sketching
for discussion purposes the domi-
nant issues facing youth today.
Some of these issues probably will
not seem so urgent to one group,
but are burning questions to an
other in a country with different
background.
Among the organizations which
are initiating this conference are
the World Council of Churches, the
Worlds Alliance of Y. M. c. A
and Y. w. c. A., and the World
Student Christian Federation. The
International Missionary Council
and the Worlds Sunday School
Association are sponsors. The Rev.
Francis House, organizing secre-
tary, is making preliminary ar
rangements at the World Council
of Churches headquarters in
Geneva.

of Gastrikland and other forest
owners in northern Sweden have
bought from British war material
depots a number of tanks, which
they are now employing in this
years wood-cutting campaign.
These tanks, which are being
used as tractors and for building
new roads for timber transports
through the forests, have proven
very useful owing to their great
strength and easy handling in any
terrain.

Sweden to Mix BorIey
With Wheat Flour

STOCKHOLM, March 6-(By
wireless) The Swedish stores of
wheat are now very small, and the
Food Commission has therefore
ordered that five per cent of bar
ley be mixed in the wheat and
flour to exc out the dwindling
stocks.
The severe cold all over Sweden
may also delay the harvest, which
can have serious and far-reaching
consequences for the Swedish food
rationing.

ried on for forty years by Mr.
Bergman and his father Herman
Bergman. whose sculpture cast

known. Among other things, they
have cast practically all works
created by Carl Miles.
Extremely accurate casts can
be obtained by the new method;
Mr.. Bergman mentions as an eX-
ample that he had tied two twigs
together with thin sewing
thread, which he forgot to re-
move before the casting This
thread was also reproduced in the
cast, and one can clearly see
where it has been cut off. Direct
castings of leaves, on which all
the fibres can be seen, have also
been made in the Bergman work

considered such castings impos-
sible to make. On one of the
leaves sits a small grasshopper,

alton of $75,O0O,OOO for United
States share of the cost, but re-
jected any concurrent relaxation

ton laws.
During the war thousands of
Danes were deported as slave Ia
Dor, consigned to concentration
camps, or killed by the Nazis. But
when 200, 900 Germans fled to Den
mark from eastern Prussia before
the advancing Soviet troops, Den
mark accepted the responsibility
of giving them decent care and is
still performing that function with
extraordinary enlightenment and
generosity.
These 100000 Germans equal 5
per cent of the Danish population
and require a caretaker staff of
10000. If the United States had
to, bear an equivalent burden, it
would be feeding, housing, and in
part schooling about 100000 ref

mandant of the camp as follows:

But while they are here we shall
not give them any reason to go
back with hatred for us in their
hearts And, besides, we must
treat them well if we wish really
to teach them what it is to be
democratic.
This combination of practical
humanity and enlightened self-in-
terest might well teach some
Americans the cost-and the val
ue-of international good will.

particular-probably would have
voted her "the most undressed."
But closer scrutiny proves the
M-G-M star does look as well in
clothes as in swim suits. No less
than Irene, the designer who can
make any kind of figure look
good, says that Miss Williams
not only has the perfect modern
clothes figure-broad hips, mar
row shoulders, slim Silhouette
but a real flair for clothes.
This flair, it seems, is as es-
sential as the clothes.
Miss Williams began her ca
reer as a model in an exclusive
Los Angeles store and because
of her knack with duds was
we'll on her way to becoming a
buyer of sportswear before MGM
snatched her away. Girls who
worked with her used to say,
Esther would look good in a
burlap sack!"-although there's
no proof she ever wore one.
In her recent film, Fiesta"
she wears a traje de luces-and
it looks good, men. This is the
traditional costume of matadores
and since, in the picture, Miss
Williams enters the bull ring
disguised as her brother Ricardo
Montalban, she had to wear one.
Mexican families have turned
out these heavily embroidered
suits for men for generations.
This was the first time they ever
made one-or two-for a girl.
The results were sensationally
pleasing to the eye.
Miss Williams is generally
credited with starting the cur
rent fad of girls braiding their
hair when going in swimming,
with helping California sports
wear manufacturers create a de-
mand for their goods and, of
course, with getting peope all
over the world interested in
swimming.
With all this influence perhaps
it's not unrash to predict that
women this fall will be design
ing their suits along the lines of
the traje de luces after they've
seen Esther in Fiesta" That's
all right, too-but in her next,
in which she's now before MGM
cameras, a picture called "On an
Island with You," she wears sa-
rongs!
