Quaker Committee Takes
Responsibility For New
Program Of Education
PHILADELPHIA. - (AP)-Japanese-
American college students, evacuated
from the Pacific coast, will have a
chance to continue their studies in
inland universities and colleges, the
American Friends service committee
announced today.
Clarence Pickett, executive secre-
tary of the Quaker committee, said
it had accepted responsibility for de-
veloping a program whereby more
than 1,000 Japanese-Americans could
be reestablished in schools on the re-
quest of M. S. Eisenhower, director
of the war relocation authority.
"Deep concern now for the welfare
of loyal American citizens whose par-
ents happened to come from an en-
emy country will pay our democracy
rich dividends in the future," said
Pickett.
"The American people surely do not
wish to deprive fellow citizens of
their birthright to education because
of the accident of race."
Eisenhower said in a letter to the
committee that "it is not feasible"
for the government to undertake the
program "but this in no way detracts
from the desirability of such an ac-
complishment."
Each student will be interviewed
and certified, Pickett said, as a pro-
tective measure for the student, the
university and for the public gen-
erally.

By CLAIRE SHERMAN
Juva Higbee, who has worked for
the past fifteen years with school
children on May Festival concerts,
predicted yesterday that this year's
selection for the Youth Festival
Chorus would prove most successful.
Miss Higbee will direct the Youth
Chorus at 2:30 p.m. today in Hill
Auditorium in a concert with the
Philadelphia Orchestra.
"Since the chorus is made up of
children who are principally nine and
ten years of'age and their voices are
still immature," she declared, "it was
necessary to select a song that would
be easy for them to sing and yet
still be interesting and entertaining.
"For that reason, I chose Fletcher's
Walrus and the Carpenter,' a song
that falls well into their vocal range,
and one that tells a story within
their comprehension."
Miss Higbee is especially desirous
that the Chorus' part in the program
be perfect this year since this will
be the last Festival in which she will
have an active part, because of her
retirement at the end of this season.
"Next year I intend to come back
to Ann Arbor and really enjoy the
Festival-from the audience," she
said.

A new class in the standard 20 hour
Nutrition course will be offered by
the National Red Cross starting Mon-
day and continuing through July 13.
This is not a cooking class but ra-
ther one designed to promote the
growth of proper food habits and
practices at all income levels through
increased Iwowledge of the facts
about food.
Primarily concerned with a wide-
spread movement in health through
improvement of diets, the course pro-
vides practical training in the selec-
tion of foods, the conservation of
their values and their preparation
into appetizing and nutritious meals.
A standard Nutrition Certificate is
issued to each person by the Na-
tional Red Cross upon completion of
the course.

has taught in Ann Arbor. Miss ,Hig-
bee held the post of Assistant Pro-
fessor of Public School Music, in
which position she has trained teach-
ers to become music supervisors. She
is also known for her work as Super-
visor of Music in the Ann Arbor
public schools.
When Miss Higbee first came to
Ann Arbor, she worked with both
junior high school students and ele-
mentary students, but eight years,
ago she discontinued the junior high
school work in the Festival because
she found it difficult to arrange their
schedule with hers.
Miss Hibee declared, "My first' in-
tention on retiring is to travel
through the south and east for a few
years before I return to my home in
Buffalo, but I shall come back to
Ann Arbor as frequently as possible."

Board's Order
Corporation Head Yields
To WLB On Question
Of SundayPayments
WASHINGTON, May 7-R)-Gen-
eral Motors Corporation capitulated
today to the War Labor Board's order
for temporary extension of its wage
contract, including Sunday double
time payments.
Charles E. Wilson, white haired
president of a corporation with bil-
lions in war contracts, yielded with
dramatic suddenness at a crowded
and tense public hearing which the
board called after Wilson had tele-
graphed, "We protest and do not
agree to comply," and charged "this
order was based on ex parte consid-
eration."
For more than two hours the pub-
lic and labor members of the tri-
partite board pleaded, denounced and
,cajoled until Wilson receded from
his position of non-compliance. He
said finally his understanding of the
board's intent had been clarified sat-
isfactorily. Chairman William H.
Davis then pressed him for a retrac-
tion of the ex parte charge, asserting
he had led the public to believe the
board conducted a proceeding with
one side represented and not the
other.
"I don't know what an ex parte
hearing is myself," said Wilson
pleading with the chairman not "to
force me to take a position on that
o n e. ,"
"The trouble is," said the chair-
man, "that the American people do
know what an ex parte hearing is
and you don't"
Wilson explained that he did no
mean any unfair advantage had been
taken and he meant no reflection on
the Board; Chairman Davis accepted
the explanation; and the session end-
ed amid applause from Board mem-
bers.
The contract with the CIO United
Automobile Workers which expired
April 28 provided for double time pay
rates for Sunday and holiday work
as such, even when such work wa
within the 40 hour week. In recen
weeks AFL-CIO leaders agreed with
the President to forego those pre
mium rates. A formula was worked
out, and applied by the board recent-
ly in the International Harvester case

To Students Graduating at Com-
mencement, May 30, 1942: The bu-
den of mailing diplomas to members
of the graduating class who do not
personally call for their diplomas
has grown until in 1940 it cost the
University over $400 to perform this
service. The rule has been laid down,
as a result, that diplomas not called
for at the Sports Building immediate-
ly after the Commencement Exercis-
es or at the University Business Of-
fice within three business days after
Commencement will be mailed C.O.D.
The mailing cost will be approximate-
ly 30c for the larger sized rolled
diplomas and 45c for the book form.
Will each graduate, therefoe, be
certain that the Diploma Clerk has
his correct mailing address to insure
delivery by mail. The U. S. Mail
Service will, of course, return all
diplomas which cannot be delivered.
Because of adverse conditions abroad,
foreign students should leave ad-
dresses in the United States, if pos-
sible, to which diplomas may be
mailed.
It is preferred that ALL diplomas
be personally called for.
Herbert G. Watkins,
Assistant Secretary
Commencement Tickets: Tickets
for Commencement may be obtained
on request after May 11 at the In-
formation Desk in the Business
Office, Room 1, University Hall. Be-
cause the Yost Field House will be

sent identification card when ap-
plying for tickets.
