Swarthmore, Harvard i Summer Sessions Will Provide Credited to Fill Out Accelerated Program) | Students With Credits in Shorter Course Plans for the acceleration of the academic curriculum are not yet definite. However, it has been de- cided that a student may, with good reasons and the permission of her department, receive credit for courses at Harvard and Swarth-{ more summer sessions. Miss Park | has suggested the additional alter- natives of practical experience, or defense work. Miss Ward attended a meeting last week of the representatives of many Eastern colleges and univer- sities at which plans for shorten- ing the curriculum were discussed. Swarthmore has arranged a summer session of three ‘months. Courses will be planned to meet the requirements of students. The regular seminars for Juniors and Seniors will be included. A year’s course will be covered by devoting double time to courses. Each sum- mer session will receive the credit for one semester. Haverford will. have only a two months session, running from June 22 to August 22. Concentration will center on the sciences, but there will also be some courses in other fields.

M., Tuesday, February 3.—An excited expectancy pervaded the air. In the air raid office in Rhoads senior air raid wardens languished in importance, admiring handsome embroidered arm bands. “Guess it’s the yellow signal,” Mr. Cameron speculated. “Do I have to go through the halls and all that stuff?” groaned Mr. Watson in undertone, while the telephone buzzed on and No. 1, 2, and 8. people-to-be-warned proved to be not at home because they were dutifully standing by the lights. Outside, the expectancy was ma- terialized in a nervous blinking of lights. “They’re cheating!” shouted wardens, as some sputtered off without warning, A sickly wheeze | from the village—“Ten seconds early,” commented Mr. Watson— announced the Moment. In—re-} sponse to the glorious roaring 2iz-, zing at the power house the Li- brary and Rock silently and sud- denly became blanks silhouetted in the’ moonlight, (“Who’s got some - red paper for the moon?” roared Mr. Cameron.) Anxious and pre- occupied with the problem of “Where Are Our Men” as they were, wardens stopped vo express sympathy for the “poor fellow who has to pull that thing up and down five times,” before they rushed into inspection rounds. “Our Men” loomed’ through the darkness, lurking in the shadows Jat a swift and breathless canter. ithe wardens sped. inals on the river bank.

Elsewhere lights, the principle objects of search, were’ found. Techniques for re- moving these varied. For the shadowy figure on the hill of Fac- ulty Row the shout of “Light, light” sufficed. “It’s only the moon on the car windows,” proclaimed a stentorian voice.

Inflation, he saidy is due to an increase of spendable income more rapid than supplies of goods for sale. In the last one and a half years, prices have risen more than they have during the whole preceding eight years. This pres- ent rise, ten percent in retail prices and twenty per cent in wholesale prices, shows no signs of stopping. There are three methods of’ con- trolling inflation; direct price fix- the public, and control through the monetary system itself. This last involves~control—of~banking-as~a whole. Three instruments can be used: regulation of cash reserves which banks are’ required to hold; open-market operation; and ma- nipulation of the rate of discount. However, new legislation is needed for these instruments. Cash _ re- serves must be made higher; since Continued on rage Four Calendar Thursday, February 12 Spanish Club Tea. Fvotes- sor Salinas.

Mr. Lerner said that America is being infected by the “Frank Mer- riwell spirit,’ by the dangerous, unrealistic idea that we can con- tinue to make faux pas, fail to take advantage of our resources, fail to organize ourselves, and yet win in the final split second.

We are in great danger of losing the Far East and not very long from now. We ‘cannot play for time in this war. “We must understand,” said Mr. Lerner, “that the war may be won or lost in 1942 . . that this year may. be the most crucial year in the history of the Western World.” Every effort exerted, every stroke wielded today, he said, will be worth ten such accomplish- ments afterward.

College educations will become an increasingly anxious financial load for families. There is a vast amount of war work for women, some of which can be done better by college graduates. These are very probably valid excuses, : But accelerated education is not utopian. There is first the obvious fact that the thrill of book learning may pall when it is compulsory every day, all day. But more important, there are the great, too frequently unexplored, possibilities of summer vacation. Four months is just long enough and short enough for experimen- tation, for practical expansion of theoretical learning. It is not at all impossible to get summer jobs at camps, in hospitals, on news- papers, in factories, political organizations, libraries, welfare cen- ters, summer theaters. Some.of- the jobs are volunteer or ap- prentice, some pay a living wage. Summer jobs are not only practical education; they clarify ideas about one’s capabilities and ambitions. There is only one way to find out whether you want to write, act, take dictation or pulses. If the summer vacation was utilized in taking civilian defense courses; home nursing, first aid, motor mechanics, fire-fighting, typing, etc., the present time-consuming burden of extra-curricu- lar activities would be lifted. Colleges would no longer be called on to assiime a responsibility foreign to their normal province. Another reason given by advocates of the speed-up plan is that: it will be easier to get a job in February than in June. It will be comparatively easy to get a job any time of year during the war—easier if you have had previous experience; if you can fill the blank on the application form after the words: name of former employees. __ Since the opportunities for good summer courses are at hand, _We must take advantage of them._They—-will -be-weleomed by those: with clear academic ends in mind, and those who need urgently to save time. But summers now present another opportunity. Jobs are easier to get; our services are more valuable to the community. Probably the most significant reason. behind this demand for -a time-shortened education is the desire to be of service to the country. What each student has to decide for herself is how best she can serve! A college education is not in itself enough; it is incomplete, background material which must.be supplemented by experience to be really useful. The alternation of theory and practice is the ideal form of learning. The combination provides the necessary requirements for intelligent, efficient service. Take Care. af the Pennies— That a small college suffers financially in time of war and rising prices we know. All wot us recognize the need for economy, “= put most of-tis do not give Much thought to means of achieving it. But even in a small college, small sacrifices will help. We can do more ‘than forego ‘our crackers with eleven-o’clock milk. Though M. Carey Thomas may have declared that her girls would not have to make their own beds, it is obvious that our chamber service could easily be curtailed. And surely cafeteria lunches would be no hardship. Both these measures would reduce the expenses for service which the college now must meet. ___A serious problem faces us. Important steps should be taken, and each student should be willing to share in this small but vital contribution to the college welfare. RUMOR FROM RIO | OPINION Fenwick Reports From Rio As Conference Sessions Opened January 15, 1942 Dear COLLEGE NEWS: We are in the midst of the open- ing session of the Conference. Aranha, Foreign Minister of Bra- zil, has just been elected President. He is making a strong anti-Nazi speech, denouncing racial and re- ligious persecution. (“The moral force of America’ must be brought to bear against such false philoso- phies.) Sumner Welles got a great dem- onstration when he came in, and is getting another now after a refer- ence has been made to him as rep- resentative of the U. S. President. Vargas spoke first, followed by the Foreign. Minister of Chile. Doubtless Sumner Welles will speak. The scene is very col- orful, flags everywhere, orchids in a great mass on the table in front of the speaker. Everyone in tropi- cal clothes, for the heat is great! Can you believe it? The fate of our Neutrality Com- mittee is yet to be decided—wheth- er it will be reconstituted as a Committee on International Law, a “Judicial Advisory Committee”— or perhaps be absorbed in a new Emergency Defense Committee know- the result Jong before this reaches you. _ Mr. Welles is now speaking — slowly and deliberately, not with the flowing eloquence of a Latin American but with the measured force and clear logic which is char- acteristic of him. ‘We have been taught this lesson ..._._,’’-—the les- son that if our independence is to be preserved, we must preserve the independence of those who are un- justly attacked. ‘Basic principles of right and justice” for which my country stands . . “The unity with which’ we face the. common peril” will be the test of the reality of our inter-American solidarity.

Shortly after- wards Defense Housing Co-Ordi- nator Palmer, in Washington, asked that the Allen Homes be diverted to the use of defense workers. Washington sources in- dicated that the transfer was le- gally justified because the Phila- delphia Housing Authority had ap- tric refrigerators. Such a move, they asserted, automatically con- verted the Homes into a defense project. However, the PHA de- nied ever entering into. such nego- |tiations and subsequent statements revealed that the diversion was at the request of Leon Keyserling, acting administrator of the U. S.

One group of thinkers, be- ginning with the Venerable Bede, | maintained that -the mountains arose with the flood because of the sins of Adam, Cain and Enoch, the other group that they arose before the flood. The climax came in the Reforma- tion with Calvin’s declaring that nature itself was an evidence of God’s. beauty, Luther that God had allowed man’s sin to extend to the earth. In the seventeenth. century, mountains were generally regarded with hostility or indifference; and the mountains envisioned were never real mountains but those de- scribed in books. The entire. at- titude of the century was condi- tioned by Latin poetry and by the Bible. Miss Nicolson said it is dif- ficult to find passages, except from the Old Testament, where moun- tains are praised. The eyes of the century were thus influenced by this quarrel. Men like Marvell, Sir Thomas’ Browne and Donne saw mountains as pock- marks upon the perfect proportion of the world, as evidences of man’s fault rather than God’s help. Mil- ton upheld the other side of the controversy, declaring mountains to be original with creation. Both these theories were put to- gether by Thomas Burnett in his| - important Sacred Theory of Earth, published in 1681. By making the whole problem clear and by stimu- lating discussion, Burnett caused whany to rethink the prevalent theo- logical ideas, Miss Nicolson pointed out. Some of these ideas were dead when the controversy aroused by Burnett was over, and new-scien- change men’s ways of thinking. | By the generation of Thomas Gray, mountains were associated | with Godliness, exalted in lyric rapsodies.

In the first half the Owls were un- believably slow in their passing, inaccurate in their shooting, and careless in their guarding. As the game swung into the sec- ond half, Beaver led 28-13. For- tunately at this time the Varsity metamorphosed. The lead melted from their feet, their eyes sharp- ened and the balls began to swish through, the basket. Meyer, ’42, high scorer with 17 points, was re- sponsible for most of the “free’’ shots.._Gifford, ’45, used her height to advantage to execute many a good pass. Waples,:’42, was able to score several times with “pivot” shots. However the Beaver team | was by no means idle in this half, and scored enough tallies to main- tain a tantalizing lead right to the finish. to more than a few men’s experi- ence or the interrelation of a few arts. change in attitude of thought. i Salinas to Lecture | On Spanish N ovelist | | On Thursday afternoon at 5.00 | Professor Pedro Salinas will give | an.-informal talk about.

Both the forwards and guards of the -home team displayed speedy passing and a sure feeling for the whereabouts of each other at all times. This meant-that the Bryn Mawrter’s passes were accurate as well as fast. Ruth Finger, '42) was particularly keen of eye, lead- ing the forwards in scoring with 13 points.

The difficulty here is that states are being born and frequently dying so that “the list you could make of states under international law must always be the death of such states as Hawaii and Montenegro and the creation of new ones, as the Baltic states and Iraq. Dr. Hudson cited four sources of international law. One of the most important is international conven- tions or treaties. Over five thous- and treaties have been registered with the Secretariat of the League of Nations in the past twenty said Dr. Hudson. © Grotius, called the “father of international law,” whose De jure belli ac pacis im- mensely influenced contemporary and later thought, formulated his legal theories during the Thirty Years War; and Dr. Hudsol® be- lieves that out of this war likewise will come a new emphasis on inter- national and stated law.

The latter portion of the pro- ‘gram was a great deal more as- sured. The modern Adirondack Suite by Robert’ Kelly was perhaps the most skillfully rendered com- position of the evening, except for the concluding Marche Slav. The Viener Blut swirled along happily as usual, not withstanding a few hyper-Viennese fits and starts; but we wish Mr. Vyner could have re- laxed with the Polevetzkran Dances as much as he dared with the Marche Slav. This last contained all the warmth, agony, and aban- don which his over-cautious direct- jing had lacked in the beginning, and raised the spirits of the audi- ence to a point where it had no desire to go home. They clamored long and steadily for an encore, re- ceiving numerous return views of Mr. Vyner, but no further music. May we express our warm thanks to the government, youth, and who- ever inspired them to perform at Goodhart. The orchestra is composed of young musicians studying at music schools in the vicinity. The first violinist, Miss Reynolds, a gradu- ate of the Curtis Institute was a member of Stokowski’s Youth or- chestra which went to South America last summer. Mr. Vyner, who trains Philadel- phia’s Youth Orchestra, studied at the Curtis Institute. He was the first graduate of a training course in conducting.

Most states have bi-partite treaties with most other states, and the number of multi-partite trea-/| ties is large also. “Another chief source is custom. That a nation can act in a matter, Dr. Hudson pointed out, “and then say ‘this is the law’ is only a prerogative of the larger states.” General prin- ciples of law and judicial decisions are the last two important sources. “International law,’ said Dr. Hudson, ‘attempts normality ih the face of the ab- normality of war.” In 1864 the Red Cross Convention met in Ge- neva to discuss the treatment of the wounded in war, and again met | in 1929.

Outlines Monetary Controls Continued from Page One they already exceed the maximum reserve funds required by law. Selected, particular control must be exercised to curb inflation and facilitate a defense program. There must be curbs on the use of bank funds for civilian purchases and there must be means of econ- omizing on consumer consumption. New discriminations in bank prac- tices are necessary to effect these changes and to bring about an al- leviation of the present state of in- flation. The price rise is closely con- nected with government expendi- tures. « There is no limitation on the amount of money which the government can spend, and its ri- valry with private corporations has caused increased prices. Inflation as a system of taxation is unfair. It does not allocate the burden of taxation equitably" among all. Fixed income groups are hard hit by price rises, and work. per hour at presént has a lower purchasing power than it had’ a year ago. Businessmen, however, are making higher profits ‘than they were during the boom of "29." ; Inflation impedes the transfer from peace-time to war-time basis. There are more profits in the pro- duction -of civilian goods than in the production of military equip- ment; hence inflation impairs the defense effort. There is competition between in- flation and other means of raising government purchasing power. It is a poor system of finance with regards to general morale. Strikes are more frequent. Inflation, said Anderson, is condemned without qualification as a method of fi- nance.

The | tragedies of the past decade can be attributed to a failure of. “knowl- edge, belief, and will on the part of the economic and political govern- ing groups.” “Collective will and collective action, ‘so essential to democracy” failéd and. the profit motive, the idea of individual in- centive were dominant. | Salvation, said Mr. Lerner, lies not in optimism or pessimism, but in the extent to which energies are organized and canalized. Ameri- cans now have the “tragic and ter- rible sense of being unused;” they have an unfulfilled. desire to be “used Yor something greater than themselves.” We may be optimistic about the long-run future, however, because we have huge economic resources, “strong and great allies,” and the weapon of the Democratic Idea. But, only in the War Production Board, he said, have we begun to learn from the past. In our un- alert military leadership, unbold | strategy, in our refusal through the Dies Committee and, to a lesser | extent, the F.B.I. to cope with the real Fifth Column, in a State De-/| partment permeated by ideas of “aristocracy” and “appeasements,”’ “nolitics-as-usual, and business-as- usual,” are seen examples of our failure to profit from a study of “how we got here?” Retrenchment in public works is not a far-sighted policy, said Mr. Lerner, and in the long run will retard the fight against Hitlerism. ‘The post-war period, said Mr. | Lerner, will be “a direct conse- quence of the war period.” We can- not cooperate with our ally, Soviet Russia, “on terms of beating her later.” Russia and China will be as essential in the post-war world as Britian and the United States. We must guard against the Fifth Column_technique, he said, of split-| ting the war. into two distinct wars. Fear of Socialism and Com- munism at this time is “danger- ous.” This war is not being fought, concluded Mr. Lerner, for Anglo- Saxon supremac’y or political ideals. No Carthaginian peace can be a success. We must eventually | | evolve a world federation of which England and America cannot be | “the sole base,” and there must be an economic as well as a political settlement.
