NEW YORK.-When italian
papers announced last year that
seven United States scholar
ships were available, 5000 young
Italians rushed to apply.
Their eagerness reflected a
worldwide thirst for knowledge
and know-how that has created
in 1949 the biggest international
educational shuttle Of all time.
UNESCO (the United Ma
tions Educational Scientific and
Cultural Organization) has Just
completed the first world listing
of more than 10000 fellowships.
scholarships and educational
exchanges in "a countries. in
volving millions of dollars and
thousands Of persons.
About 800 of these are given
by the U. N. or its specialized
agencies; the rest come from
governments, foundations, uni
versities, organizations and in
dividuals. Most are for college
or postgraduate study. but
many are designed to give pro-
fessional training to men hold
ing advanced degrees or high
government posts.
But long before UNESCO
started its listings, thousands
were shutting to foreign coun-
tries for study. Some came
on private funds; others on
scholarships. Many were pushed
by the pressing need and suf-
fering that followed World
War II.
Makes Friends for L. S.
Today, $1,000 students from
Asia, Europe, Africa, Latin
America and the Middle East
are in the United States learn
ing to build roads and bridges,
fight malaria, repair teeth,
combat neuroses, raise crops
and master other phases of
American scientific and tech
nical knowledge.
Thousands of Americans are
in Europe, the Far East and
elsewhere studying political
science, labor relations and
economics, or delving into
archaeological ruins and an
cient libraries. Thousands
from other nations are study
ing elsewhere around the globe.
The mingling of students
from many lands Is doing
much to strengthen interna-
tional understanding and make
friends for American democ-
racy all over the world, edu-
Gators say. But sometimes cul-
tural interchange gets a bit
brisk.
South Americans, Africans
and Far Fasteners say that
lots of American students ask
questions like these: Have you
telephones in Cairo? Are there
sidewalks in Buenos Aires? Do
you Australians have a king? .?
Do you Bolivians still wear
feathers?
On the other hand, the
warmth. generosity, helpful
ness and .friendliness which
foreign students have met in
the United States have made
them warm friends of the
country and the people. They
are especially impressed by the
friendliness Of American pro-
fessors and the. intellectual
freedom of American class
rooms.

A DOLLARS WORK

1t seems that no amount of criticism
can bulge President Truman from his de-
termination to hike the nations tax bill by
81 billion for the coming fiscal year News
papers, particularly the big ones, are TAX
ing him to task for his apparent attitude
to impose more taxes instead of trimming
down on expenditures.
Among the latest opponents to the
Presidents program to get more money
from the American people are the policy
leaders of the Committee for Economic
Development. They maintain that tax in
creases should be avoided and point out
that $2 billion 500 million can be Topped
off proposed federal spending without
interfering in the least with efficiency,
I'm the present situation the only ac-
eeptable course is to reduce expenditures, :"
the committee asserted. Higher taxation
to support higher spending is particularly
risky at this time" And then the commit

ticularly through the adoption of the
recommendations made by the Hoover
Commission.
the CITIZEN feels confident that it
would prove of inestimable benefit to the
country if we had not only more Ryrds in
the Senate but In the House also. 1t further
believes that the government should be
operated efficiently not extravagantly,
The dollar means little to too many men in
congress W no are ready to go along with
every suggestion made by the President.
That old saying, "A public dollar is a pub
lie trust" has been forgotten too often
during the spending spree in Washington.
While the war was under way, it was easy
enough to understand the many vents of
waste in public spending but the war has
been over almost four years and yet the
federal government has shown no signs Of
thriftiness. Let the dollar, even in it's de-
preciated form, do dollars work for the
government, and the seeming need to hike
taxes will cease

DUPLICATING NATURE

One of the recent fields of exploration
in medicine has been in the use of drugs
which are derived from mold in the soil
and from the chlorophyl which is used by
green plants to manufacture food in the
mysterious factories of their leaves. Penni-
cilin and electromagnetic are among the soil
mold drugs both are very potent and
have been used with great success in treat
ing wide range of diseases and Infections
Now one of these. chloromycetin, has
been produced alphabetically by labora-
tory chemical processes alone. The drug
firm which discovered the way to do it is
well enough pleased with test results to
call them satisfactory A relationship was
found between this recent drug, which
writer's like to call "wonder drug" and
relatively common chemical. AS to this
specific drug, the discovery means that
medical people now can have all the
chloromycetin they want. For the general
field of medicine it is another step toward
duplicating the curative and protective
processes of nature, y fiany of which are
still deep mysteries. as~rt,

thoughtlessly, Unless Grady has
