Scholarship Committee
Resolution Pays Honor
To Memory of Butzel

At its meeting on June 17, the
Subcommittee on Scholarship
Service. of the Social Planning
Committee, Jewish Welfare
Federation, passed a resolution
in memory of the great contribu-
tion the late Fred M. Butzel had
made to the organization.
The Subcommittee consists of
organizations - having scholarship
funds, and meets . to consider
applications which are presented
to it by the Jewish Vocational
Service of Detroit.
The resolution reads:

BE IT RESOLVED: That the Sub-
committee on Scholarship Service, of
the Social Planning Committee, Jewish
Welfare Federation notes with deep
sorrow the passing of Fred M. Butzel.
Among his coutless benefactions, Mr.
Butzel throughout his life had always
cherished potential leadership in the
Jewish community, and personally
aided hundreds of individuals who.
without his help, would have been
deprived of the education and training
of which they Were capable.
As the need for scholarship aid
grew to broad proportions, and num-
erous organizations established scholar-
ship fluids, Mr. Butzel hailed with
delight the formation by the Jewish
Welfare Federation of the Subcommit-
tee on Scholarship Service, to coordi-
nate planning and action in this vital
matter"
From the beginning of its work. Mr.
Butzel was one of the Subcommittee's
faithful members. and was a tower of
strenght and helpfulness in its delib-
eration.
' Mr. Butzel's place in the Subcom-
mitt can never again be filled, but we
shall always be guided by his mem-
ory. We take pride that, through this
medium. we can carry forward this
work, which was so dear to his heart.

Barriers against the licensing
of alien physicians for the prac-
tice of medicine in Michigan
were removed this month by the
special legislative committee on
administrative rules.
The committee branded un-
constitutional the regulation of
th-e State Board of Registration
in Medicine that only United
States citizens could take the ex-
aminations for medical license.
"This means that a number of
persons from other countries will
take the Michigan examinations
prvided they meet our educa-
tional standards and other re-
quirements," said Dr. J. Earl Mc-
Intyre, board secretary. "It does
not necessarily mean that there
will be more doctors."

Rep. Coffin Joins
Movement to Push
For Fair DP Bill

Rep. Howard A. Coffin of the
13th Michigan District this week
declared that he will join forces
during the coming session of
Congress with Congressman Ja-
vits and Celler and others who
are interested in fair legislation
for the admission of displaced
persons in this country, and with
Senator Homer Ferguson and his
associates in the Senate, in spon-
soring revision of the latest bill
which he considers unjust and
undesirable.
Congressman Coffin explained
that, like President Truman, he
has felt that a bad bill which
will admit 225,000 DPs is better
than no bill at all and he there-
fore voted for it on the final
count in order not to penalize
those for whose admission the
last bill provides.
"I voted for the bill as reported
out of conference most reluctant-
ly," Rep. Coffin said. "But, like
Senator Ferguson, I am deter-
mined to help in every effort to
revise the blunder of the past

Approval of BRANDEIS UNI-
VERSITY under the Veterans
Administration "G.L Bill of
Rights" was announced by John
