"We are gratified for the earnest response to this cause," Doris Barr, president of Assembly, said yester- day. "However, in view of the great request for books by prisoners of war, students should rummage into their stockpiles of last semester's books and discard as many as possible." Dormitories Have Boxes Besides the receptacles placed in the League, the Union and the In- ternational Center, boxes have been placed in the various dormitories, sorority houses and league houses for the collection of the books. The deadline for book contribu- tions will be 5 p.m. Friday. "In view of the fact that books shipped must be devoid of all mark- ings, more students are urged to help clean the books," Frances Vyn, vice- president of Pan Hellenic, said yes- terday. "Students who wish to assist in this work are asked to sign up Monday and Tuesday in the Under- graduate Office of the League, indi- cating the hours they will be avail- able." The WSSF has been created by American students as a means of expressing their solidarity with their suffering fellow students all over the world. The book collection has be- come an important part of this or- ganization with over 100,000 books being sent last year to the various theatres of action all over the world. Recipients Express Gratitude Many letters have been received from the recipients of these books expressing their gratitude. In many of the prison camps, so- called "universities of captivity" have been operating where work of full university grade goes on. Instruction is provided for men from those among their own number who for- merly were professors or graduate students. The work done in prison camps has been of a very high calibre academ- ically. Many universities sent exami- nations into the camps, and many degrees are awarded to men for aca- demic work done behind barbed wire. 200,000 Books Is Goal With the increasing demand for more textbooks, this year's goal for the WSSF has been set at a figure of 200,000 books. College textbooks which are in cur- rent use are requested. Language study books for any language and books for professional subjects such as law, medicine and theology are also needed. Clean books are preferred, but books with markings are also accep- ted. "The response by University stu- dents to the drive to collect clothes or the Norwegian people is most gratifying," Mrs. Charles E. Koella, Ann Arbor chairman of American Relief for Norway, said yesterday. Mrs. Koella, who is from Norway, pointed out that such interest does a great deal in keeping up the morale in that country. "In the long drawn- out struggle, heavy with sacrifice, which the Norwegian people in occu- pied Norway are carrying on against the enemy, it means very - much to them to know that their contribu- tions to the war are being appreci- ated and that friends are following their fate with hearts that beat warmly. Help Relieves Norwegians "The assurance that active prepa- rations are being made for the future to relieve their desperate situation contributes essentially to the ability of the Norwegians on the home front to keep up under the present heavy strain." The latest News of Norway, pub- lished by the Royal Norwegian Infor- mation Service and received yester- day in Ann Arbor, carries a report of "what life is like in Oslo today-- after nearly four years of occupa- tion." People Show Marks of War The report states, "People them- selves have begun to show the marks of nearly four years of war. There are many pale and weary faces to be seen. Thousands of Oslo residents have loved ones among the more than 6,000 Norwegian prisoners in Low Meical Costs Asked b en. Murray DETROIT, March 10.-MP)-Sen. James E. Murray (Dem., Mont.) de- clared tonight that one of the three major threats to economic and social security was the "high cost of medi- cal service and the failure of large numbers of people to get adequate medical care." The Senator said at a symposium on the Wagner-Murray-Dingell Bill for a National Social Insurance Pro- gram before the United Automobile Workers' (CIO) Second Health Con- ference the other two threats to social security were the dangers that: 1. "There will not be enough jobs paying adequate wages or any wages," and 2. "Earnings will be cut off as a result of individual misfortune." Asserting that "only a fraction of the people have access to really mod- ern medical care," Sen. Murray said the social insurance method of pay- ing for medical care would avoid in- terference with individual doctor- patient relationship or professional aspects of medicine and would pay doctors and hospitals fair reimburse- ments for services.
