STOC KHOLM. - Vaccination
against tuberculosis according to
the Calmette method has in re-
cent years been performed in Swe-
den on a very considerable scale
and with good results. According
to information given by Professor
Arvid Wallgren in lecture at the
recent Medical Congress in Lon
don, last year alone 200, 900 Swedes
were vaccinated with Calmette
vaccine.
Tests on a relatively small scale
had been going on for many years
in Sweden but during the war the
authorities began to apply the
method more generally. Most
young conscripts have been treated
with this prophylactic, after X-ray
examination, and thousands OF
school children as we'll as nurses
and other people who are exposed
to risk of turbercular infection
have been vaccinated. 1t is re-
ported that the British medical
authorities, encouraged by the re-
suits reached in Sweden, will rec
ommend the method for more gen
eral use.

physicians lectured on interesting
results obtained in Sweden in other

Rationing Of Meat
Continues in Sweden

STOCkHOLM-(By airmaiD-
Hopes of having meat rations
abolished in Sweden have been
dashed. A recent premature an
nouncement in the press resulted
in an unprecedented buying rush
to the delicatessen stores and
meat markets. Gunnar Strang,
Minister of Supply, later an
nounced over the radio that the
Food Commission, with only one
dissenting vote, had favored the
adjustment of the meat rations.
The Government, however, con-
sidered a temporary lifting of the
restrictions as highly unwise. Swe-
den's meat supply is not more
than two thirds of the normal, and
the risk of a price rise seems OBJ
vious OF late, the meat rations
have been more generous than be-
fore. This is due to the extensive
slaughtering of cattle, necessitated
by the poor harvest. The Govern
ment is of the opinion that the
larger meat allotments will coun-
teract any profiteering.

Scandinavian
Languages At
American Colleges
And Universities

NEW YORK. Course in
Scandinavian languages at Amer
lean colleges and universities were
attended by 1,760 students during
the fall term of 1916, while those
who specialized on some subject
dealing with Scandinavian culture
numbered 526 Glasses in Norwe-
gian registered a greater attend
ance than those in Swedish, de-
spite the fact that the Swedish
population in the United States ex-
ceeds the Norwegian. This has
been brought out in a research by
Drs. Costa Franzen and Hedin
Bronner of the University of Chi
cago and printed in a recent issue
of the publication, "Ecandinavian
Studies"
The first instruction in Scandin-
avian languages in the United
States was given in the theological
seminaries in the Middle West,
primarily for the purpose of en-
abling ministers to preach in the
mother tongues of the immigrants.
From 1870 and up to the outbreak
of the First World War, an aver
age of fifteen Scandinavian schools
were established every ten years.
Since 1917, however, only four new
such schools have been started,
while 81 have closed or have been
assimilated by other theological
colleges.
Scandinavian courses were first
given at American universities in
the beginning of the 1905. The
number of universities which Of
fered Scandinavian courses in the
fall of 1916 was "a, while the cor
responding figure for 1939-1940
was twenty. Colleges giving such
courses have decreased, however,
from % to 10. 1t should be noted
that the first figure concerns
courses given during an entire
study year, while the second one
applies only to the fall term.
! So far as high schools are con-
cerned, teaching of Scandinavian
languages has declined since be-
fore the Second World War. Ex-
cept at Harvard, Danish does not
figure on the curriculum any more
and the number of pupils who
study Norwegian and Swedish is
now S73 compared with 1,544 for
the year 1939-194O. This reduction
is greatly due to the fact that i'm
migration practically ceased dur
ing the 192O's, so that today there
are few children of school age
whose parents came from Scandin-
avia. At Harvard, on the other
hand, there are now 40 students
or more than ever, taking courses
in Swedish or courses dealing with
Swedish subjects. Practically none
of these participants are of Swe-
dish descent. They have thus chos-
en- these subjects for educational
rather than sentimental or family
reasons. They are all candidates
for Harvard degrees. DR.. Sven
Liljeblad is the instructor in Swe-
dish and DR.. P. NJ. Mitchell in Da-
