lar, and this years selection will
be headed by five courses In
French, a similar English curric-
ulum, and courses in just about
any of the other modern tongues.
Child welfare, mental hygiene,
psychology for Scout Masters, for
eign policy, home furnishing and
a score of other free offerings
have drawn a record number Of
participants.
Glasses are held in various To-

A more plentiful breakfast than
cold-storage eggs and gray bread
now is in prospect for most Danes
On Oct. l almost all Danish
foodstuffs and clothing went off
the ration list, and points for 9th.
er items were greatly reduced
This meant that white and rye
bread was ration-free again, ant
that each Dane might enjoy g
quarter pound of Danish butter
each month.
Other points in the announce
ment by the Minister of Com
merce, Jens Otto Krag, included
the end of tobacco rationing after
Dec. 1 and the promise of rice
raisins, oranges, and other good
things for Christmas.
Newspapers no longer are to be
hampered by paper rationing, and
various import and export restric-
tions will either be lifted or modi-
fled.
Two Factors Credited
In his radio address to the peo-
pie, Mr. Krag emphasized that
the decisions had been made pos
sible by just two things-the good
harvest and the Marshall Plan
which permits Danes to buy goods
in American markets for an esti-
mated 35O,OOO,OOO kroner more
than last year.
If this was good news to the
Danish citizen sitting at his break
fast table, the remainder of the
paper made anything but pleasant
reading.
The Russians, he learned, con-
tinue to accuse his government of
having drawn up secret defense
agreements with the other Scan
dinavian countries, Great Britain,
and the United States, at the re-
cent foreign ministers meeting in
Stockholm.
The Russians refuse to admit
that they sent military planes over
the Danish island CT Bornholm on
two occasions, and they accuse the
Danes of fortifying that island
contrary to treaty.

leading newspapers, comments on
these Russian attacks: Foreign
Minister Gustav Rasmussen's de

Atlantic Crossing
In Small SaiIboat

STOCKHOLM, Sept. 30 Air
mailed) a sixty-four day
trip across the Atlantic Ocean,
from the eastern end of the Pana-
ma Canal, Felix Brandsten, a six
ty-seven-year-old Swede. and a
Finnish sailor, Ivar Heine, have
arrived at Marstrand, on Sweden's
west coast. in a two and a half
ton sailboat. Mr. Brandsten orig
inally sailed out of San Francisco
on October Is last year, and pro-
coded south by easy stages. An
Englishman. accompanying him
was replaced by the Finn at Pan
anna City. The pair weathered
fourteen severe storms on the At
lantic trip.

900, which, in a country with the
population of Denmark, is a trs-
mendous burden.
The Danes have housed the ref
ugees in former German barracks
and have given them everything
they require in the way of neces-
sites. They have, however, iso-
lated them as completely as pos
sible, refusing to let tho Danes in
the region mix with them.
The Danes have not forgotten
that one of the Germans most
successful tricks in World War II
was to send to Denmark and Nor
way as occupiers their grown-up
war children from World War l.,
who had been members of families
in those countries, learning condi-
tons and the languages in each.
1t is considered probable that
Mr.. Rasmussen's appeal will lead
to the removal of most of the ref
ugees remaining on Danish soil,
as the French, British, American,
and Soviet zones have agreed to
absorb about 10000 of them, while
Denmark will continue to send
them food provisions for a year
thereafter.
Those remaining over the border
in Germany, however, are regard
ed as a real danger to Denmark's
national defense
But despite this news, the Dan
nish citizen is not surprised to
read that on the initiative of the
Friends of Peace, a new contin-
gent of 40 German children is on
its way to Denmark, where they
will have the first chance in their
lives to live like normal children.
Many of them were born in
concentration camps, others are
Jewish orphans, and all of them
between the ages of 8 and IA
are undernourished and alone.
Remarkable Record
Since the end of the war, in fact,
Denmark relief work is remark
able. Few other countries among
these occupied and badly in need
of help themselves can present
such a record
The Danish Red Cross, cooper
ating with the Save the Children
Federation. began its relief job
in July 1945. by feeding 200
Partisan children. Later, as many
as 225.000 children and aged per-
sons in Holland, Poland. Hungary,
Austria. Belgium, Yugoslavia. Ro-
mania. and Germany were receiv-
ing Danish meal a day.
The work is still in progress in
Germany and Austria. and at the
end of 1947. amounted to over
210. 900 900 kroner, or about ST.
900, exclusive of the costs for
refugees-of which a third was
donated by the government and
the remainder contributed volun-
tarily by the Danish people.

More FOOD On Denmarks Tables
Other News Not So Pleasant

NAL of these Russian radio at
tacks on Denmark's foreign policy
is based on such obvious facts that
it is superfluous to. mention them
here"
The paper goes en- to ask what
purpose lies behind these Rus
sian statements which are echoed
word for word by the Danish
Communist newspaper Land og
Folk when that paper knows that
Denmark has no secret agree
ments either with East or West"
ut knows that the plans for
Scandinavian cooperation which
have been discussed, are not di-
rected, against any other nation,
but are solely to guarantee peace
in Scandinavia" Politiken said.
THE paper knows or should
know = that Denmark has con-
tinually striven for better relations
with the Soviet Union, as we'll as
with other countries.
1T may be naive of us, but we
fail to see why Land og Folk
should try to break down these
efforts at friendship instead of
backing them. We may we'll ask
what the motive is behind these
false accusations concerning Dan
ish and Scandinavian policy. What
does Soviet Russia think it will
gain by them? Our friendship
While Land og Folk continues
it's blasts and even writes Social |
democrat" whenever it has oc-
casion to mention them, which is
fairly often, the straight Social
Democratic government under
Premier Hans Hedtcft has steered
a clear course since the end of the |.
war. its one object being to put
the country on it's feet again.
Apart from commercial and in
dustrial planning, plans now are
ready to provide free health in
surance and dental care for all and
home help for mothers with large |
families. The Danish Congress of |
Trade Unions also is strong sup
porter of these programs.
In general, it can be said that |
social democracy in Denmark is
not only achieving practical eco
nomic results, but has succeeded |
in building up one Of the strong
est fronts against communism of
any of the Scandinavian countries. |
Great Problem
One of Denmark greatest prob |
lens, however, continues to be
the refugees from Germany, who
found haven just over the Danish
border of Schleswig- Holstein. The
matter is so grave, in fact, that
Mr.. Rasmussen recently brought
up the question before the United
Nations in Paris. There he stat
ed that unless these refugees are
removed, there may be serious
consequences, particularly as fur
Their thousands of German dis
placed persons remain on the other
side of the Danish border in
Schleswig, which belonged to Den
mark until the Germans took it in
1864.
This mass of people for whom
no work has been found, not only
is causing a severe economic drain,
but represents a potential danger !,
from both a political and military
point of view in Danish eyes.
Of the 224,O00 Germans who
were transferred from Germany's
bombed cities to Denmark during
World War II, $4,000 still remain.

and housing has topped 100000

ROBERT WALKER IN GOOD COMEDY
 AT 10TH CENTURY

Tn What Next, Corporal Har- grove?' the feature at the 20th Gen.
 tury Theatre tonight, Robert Walker returns to the characterization which he made famous in the original G. l. comedy, See Here. Private Har- grove and the M-G-M sequel is even funnier and faster than it's fore-runner
 Having completed a somewhat ha- Zardous basic traineeship as Private, Hargrove now emerges a full-fledged combat Corporal with an artillery Lattery in France. But from the moment that he makes an unex- pected but opportunely-timed en- trance into a liberated French vil- lage as it's hero, his career as a Cor poral is marked by one bowling epi- sode after the other, punctuated by his dodging the somewhat over whelming affections of the mayors daughter.

 The other feature is For the Love of Rusty" which fills one with a warm, happy friendly feeling.
 The simply-woven story of boys love for his dog, in conflict against the stern dictates of a misunder- standing father, has an emotional appeal which makes it one of the most engaging pictures of the cur rent season.
