At hand is the annual re-

The consensus is that NIT.
ranks first. Therefore, the
findings Of her president, DR..
julius A. Stratton, have
major validity.
One Of the plums to be ex-
tracted from this scholastic
pie deals with the forces OF
change, as follows:
Actually the problems Of
undergraduate education that
now loom before M.I.T.-and
indeed that confront every
institution seriously con-
cerned with the teaching Of
science and engineering
are Of a new nature. Three
major forces are working to
make obsolete large segments
Of the traditional curricula
and to outmode many Of the
methods Of instruction.
First, there is the stu
pendous accumulation Of new
knowledge and principles
flowing from advances in
every field of science and en-
cheering.
Second, the nature Of
these advances is such that
it becomes increasingly i'm
portant that students of SCI
ence and engineering have a
thorough command Of mod
ern physics. chemistry. and
mathematics.
Third, the traditional
boundaries that have long
compartmentalized one pro-
fessional field from another
are rapidly dissolving' away,
with the result that the
foundations of a sound pro-
fessional education are con-
stantly broadening.
These influences are, AZ
I have said, of major proper
ton. We shall be unable to
cope with them by the simple
expedients Of small adjust
ments and gradual change"
Let the thoughtful parent
digest this irrefutable con-
clusion and ask Of himself a
few questions.

There are few better routes

than by first becoming its

kindly Of Ahim-for the vice

dates for the top place must
shrink from all such propos-
ais as from the kiss Of death.
In business If you don't
want a man for the very
highest job you see to 1t that
he doesn't reach the second

often try to atop him for the

how good he would be for the

Gov. Nelson Rockefeller Of
New York, Is coming in for
the same treatment.
Mr.. Rockefeller, who day
by day Is looking more savvy
as q politician, has already
spurned this dubious sort Of

There happens to be a book

Margaret Leech, which has
in 1t a passage referring to
the significant speech deliv-
cred by President Mckinley
at Buffalo, N. Y, the day be-
fore he was assassinated in
September. 1901. 1t reads as
follows:
1.-TWO themes were inter-
woven in the Presidents

policy of commercial reci-
procity: the unity Of the
modern world and the al
most appalling prosperity Of

graph and cable. by swift

an enormous and diversified
production that far exceeded
the demands Of home con-

of the times; measures OF

phrase after ringing en-
phatic phrase, the President
pointed to the trend Of the
future: Isolation is no longer
possible or desirable. God
and man have linked the ma

Rod Of exclusiveness is past. -
These same words could
well have been used last week
by the Undersecretary Of

It is often said that history
repeats ITSELF" which may be
only another way Of saying
that unsolved problems bob
up again and again.
Thus. today the important
talk among the free govern
ments Of the world is about
the removal Of trade restric-
tions and barriers to COM
merce. The United States Is
losing gold because much
money is being sent abroad
for foreign aid" while the
other countries aren't buying
enough goods from America.
This has led to a buy Amer
lean" crusade. and 1t is being
suggested that money appro-
priated for foreign aid" be
spent largely in the United
States for goods needed by the
beneflciaries Of the program.
Already. also, many COM
panies in this country that
make steel and machine tools
are complaining about tariffs
being too low. Likewise, the
AFL-CIO Is being urged to go
back to the policies Of the
late Samuel Gompers. who
founded the American FEEDER
alton Of Labor and who for
years backed a platform Of
protective tariffs. Steel unions
today know that imported
steel is coming into the United
States at low prices because
Of cheaper labor abroad and
that this threatens to deprive
American workers Of jobs.
What is conservatism and
what is liberalism in such
controversies? Too often his
tory is ignored by the young
er generations and maybe
that's why today a favorite
cliche Of many who regard
themselves as liberals is to
characterize any conservative
with whom they disagree as
being TO the right Of Nc
Kinley." This implies that
Mckinley was the archdea-
con Of conservatism. when
