"It is ironic that he should be criticized, misunderstood and loved for the wrong reasons," which in- clude an historical and biographi- cal approach to criticism that slights a more aesthetic interpre- tation, he explained. Although as a man, he "left everything common miles behind him," he must be studied for his poetry and his approach to poetic diction. Truth in Form His truth is expressed through artistic form, for Schiller was op- posed to the tradition that poetry is an expression of an artist's emo- tions and experiences: his poems were never a medium of personal confession. In their beauty, they have their own order and logic which has the inescapable effect of freeing us from our passions, Prof. Jolles suggested. Schiller felt that subject or con- tent should be inoperative and that formal structure "should do everything." "The essence of beauty and free- dom is a purification of our pas- sions and, like a leitmotif, the praise of beauty rolls through his poems." Unity Lost Schiller thought his age had lost the sense of beauty and unity, "and he looked back to antiquity mournfully. This, he said, requires a formal aesthetic analysis. Schiller, a "master of dramatic craftsman- ship," found his unifying element in symbolical structure, only in terms of which do his words re- veal.their intended meanings, "but this aesthetic organization is over- looked if we seek meaning instead of form," he added. Man can regain his aesthetic freedom "not through the absence of passions" but "his feelings un- dergo a transubstantiation, to a disinterested state of mind un- related to any practicable end." Motives Conflict Moreover, there is a "tragic con- flict between the voice of the heart' and the desire to act for utilitarian motives, Prof. Jolles ex- plained, quoting Schiller's "the human, not the great part, would I act." And, through this "'voice of the heart" the human and the free, truth and certainty are realized, needing neither physical or meta- physical substantiation, Prof. Jol- les observed. He asserted that Schiller, even in this sense, inspires through the spirit and not through words..: Especially here, he must be ap- proached through apprehending the symbolical language of the forms of poetry. "The ultimate goal then, is freedom and beauty, not rationality or the discharging of ethical duties," Prof. Jolles con- cluded. Professor To Discuss Bible Heroes Prof. William F. Albright, for- merly of Johns Hopkins Univer- sity, will discuss two Biblical fig- ures, Moses and Samuel, in the third annual Zwerdling lecture series in old Testament studies here Thursday and Friday. The lectures are open to the public and will be held at 4:15 p.m. each afternoon in Aud. A, Angell Hall.

By SANDRA SWIFT "I don't believe we can ever catch up with the demand for hospital beds if we don't have re- habilitation services for long- term illnesses," Dr. Leroy E. Bur- ney, Surgeon General of the Unit- ed States Public Health Service, said yesterday. Coming from Washington to speak on "Current Problems in Public Health in the United States," he told listeners the Pub- lic Health Service recognizes two pressing areas of concern: reha- b i l it a t io n and environmental problems. night now, Dr. Burney insisted, the rehabilitation of the sick at. home or in public health depart- mients rather than in hospitals, is essential to relieve overcrowding. In one small hospital, he found ORCH ESTRAS by BUD-MOR featuring that 30 per cent of the patients no longer had need of care in a hospital. The;people are more willing to appropriate money for something they will see, like hospital wings, Dr. Burney said, and they tend to ignore the need for places where people could come to con- valesce. City hospitals which need reno- vation or new facilities also pose a problem. They no longer have a large and wealthy clientele, he pointed out, because the popula- tion shifted from the cities to the suburbs and rural hqspitals have expanded. Moreover, they are economical- ly inefficient because often each offers the same specialized serv- ices. This waste of manpower could be alleviated, Dr. Burney said, if the hospitals of a city would cooperate in their areas of specialty, such as use of radio- isotopes. Since two thirds of the popu- lation is located in only 184 met- ropolitan districts, the Public Health Service offers- help in en- vironmental problems. Although the states are sovereign in their health affairs, they can call for government aid any time they wish. Scientists and sanitary engi- neers are now working on the problems of just how much harm comes from the industrial wastes which are dumped into the water and released into the air. They also want to know what the ef- fects of the minute radioactivity in the air are. As illustration, Dr. Burney men- tioned, that we know now just what large amounts of chemicals o rradioactivity will do to the fac- tory workers, but little is known about the day-to-day result of the small amounts of poisonous gases in th.e air on the cities' citizens.
