Lutheran position allowed for toor
little critique of political policy byr
the church.f
"But the classical position basedX
on Romans 13 is hardly to be carica-
tured in such fashion. Niemoeller hasI
also learned from his long and pain-t
ful experience, stating that he 'was
raised a Lutheran and did not realizeI
that the traditionaltLutheran theo-
logy regarding the State was wrong.'
Out of their experience the Churches1
of the Resistance are coming closer1
to the Anglo-American pattern of
church life.-
"Certainly Niemoeller's position wasI
Christ-centered and church-centered.c
But there has not been any doubt for
ten years in the minds of his friendse
and German enemies as to what he
meant in such a rallying call as he-
gave in concluding his last pastoral
message:
" 'Now we are fighting for the
Cross, for faithror unbelief, for the
sovereignty of the crucified Christ or
the sovereignty of the Prince of this
World; and we must not dream of
peace. Indeed, we must not even hope
for a truce; but we must clearly real-~

sound understanding of educational
matters and his sane outlook made
his services invaluable to the Uni-
versity during a period of depression
and wartime stress. His heavy re-
sponsibilities must at times have
been more than staggering, but he
carfied them without complaint or
self pity. He never wanted sympathy
and never intimated that he was do-
ing more than his simple duty. His
wide contacts made him one of the
best known men in the University
and one of the most respected. His
congenial disposition and friendly
manner made him thoroughly ap-
proachable and gained forh im a ohst
of friends. His passing has left a gap
in the personnel of the University
which will be hard to fill."
Harold R. Sullivan, Recorder at the
Graduate School and a member of
Dean Yoakum's staff:
"To his staff Dean Yoakum was as
much a friend as an employer. Be-
cause of our high personal regard for
him as well as our respect for his
ability as an administrator, we will
sincerely miss him.
Graduate Dental
Courses Begin
One-day-a-week courses in partial
denture prothesis and operative den-
tistry opened yesterday at the W. K.
Kellogg Foundation Institute.
Five dentists have enrolled in the
partial denture prothesis course and
12 in the operative dentistry class.
The courses are part of a series of
eight types of postgraduate work be-
ing offered on a one-day-a-week basis
this year.
The partial prothesis course will
run for the whole year, while the
operative dentistry class will meet
during this term only.

ize that we are being called upon to
make a last bid for victory by the
message of the Cross, which saves us
from the power of the world and its
prince and gives us the peace of God
so that we may not perish in this final
battle with its more than human
temptations.'
"Niemoeller is willing to learn. But
I suppose some newspapermen will
never learn. The appalling religious
illiteracy of the average American
boy, about which so many chaplains
have both commented and written,!
was never better demonstrated. Nie-
moeller by his spiritual integrity and
long suffering as the authentic voice
of the German churches of the resist-
ance, might well reply that it is bad!
enough to be misrepresented withouti
'being trampled to death by geese.' "

Six, Latin-Ametican students areI
now taking graduate work in the
School of Forestry and Conservation
under a special program whereby
they receive tuition scholarships from{
the University and travel and ex-
penses from the State Department.
The program was inaugurated two
years ago, with 16 students, and is
continuing on a reduced scale this
year. Five scholarships are still avail-
able, and the program is expected to
go on for another year, after which it
is hoped it will continue on its own.
Each student spends four terms at
the school, and works for a master's
degree in either forestry or wood
technology. The nomination of can-
didates for the scholarships is made
by local selecting committees of the
Institute of International Education.
Personality, ability, and command of
the English language are factors in
the selection.
Those studying here at present are
Jose Marrero, Puerto Rico, Eduardo
Ruiz and Aparicio Ranghel Galindo,
Nazi Doctrines
Can Be Purged
By Education
German youth can be cleansed of
Nazi doctrines by education, Prof.
Theodore Newcomb, of the sociology
department, declared yesterday.
Prof. Newcomb, who recently re-
turned from a study of morale in
Germany, believes the younger Ger-
mans are disillusioned with the Nazi
movement. Germans in the adult
age groups prospered under Hitler,
Prof. Newcomb found, but persons
under 20 suffered great hardships
throughout the regime.
Declaring that the future of Ger-
many lies with those who followed
Hitler passively, Prof. Newcomb said
that Allied handling of food supplies
this winter will be an important fac-
tor in determining the future atti-
tude of the Germans toward the de-
mocracies.
Australian WYill
Lecture Here
Roughley Will Show
Films on Barrier Reef
Theodore C. Roughley, Superin-
tendent and Research Officer of the
New South Wales State Fisheries in
Australia, will lecture and show a
color film of the Great Barrier Reef
at 8 p. m., Monday, at Lydia Mendel-
ssohn Theatre.
The Barrier Reef is a formation of
coral islands which stretch 1,200
miles along the coast of Queensland,
Australia.
Roughley is a fellow of the Royal
Zoological Society. His books include
"Fishes of Australia and Their Tech-
nology," "Cult of the Goldfish," and
"Wonders of the Great Barrier Reef."
This University lecture is held
under the auspices of the Department

Colombia, Claudio Pavetti-Morin,
Paraguay, Jorge Gilchrist Leighton
and Enrique Rogers Sotomeyer, Chile.
Two more who are expected to arrive
soon under the regular program are
Cesar Del Castillo Lussich, Uruguay,
and Henry Gaston Valente, Argen-
tina.

U. S. Scholars
Will Resume
Studies .Abroad
Traveling Difficulties
Will Hinder Program
Restrictions on study abroad by
United States citizens have been re-
moved, the State Department has
announced.
The Department warns, however,
that educational institutions in a
number of countries outside the West-
ern Hemisphere "are not in condi-
tion to receive students from this
country, and transportation facili-
ties are at present difficult to ob-
tain."
War manpower demands caused the
Department, in December 1942, to
suspend the award of official fellow-
ships and travel and maintenance
grants to students from the United
States for study in other American
republics.
The Department said it hoped that
"as soon as travel conditions im-
prove, representative American citi-
zens will undertake study and re-
I search in foreign countries and thus
reciprocate the confidence shown by
the many foreign students who have
come to the United States during the
war despite hardships of travel."
~U Aproaches
War Chest Goal
The University division of the Com-
munity War Chest drive, on the basis
of incomplete returns, was $5,713
short of its $25,000 quota yesterday,
according to Judge Jay H. Payne,
chairman of the drive.
Judge Payne said that the cam-
paign as a whole was $11,000 short
of its goal, but that the industrial
division, at a meeting last week, had
agreed to assume responsibility for
$5,000 of this deficit, leaving only
$6,000 for all other divisions to raise.
Judge Payne predicted that the
quota would be reached "by the first
of next week."
