PAGE TWO THE MICHIGAN DAILY TUESDTA; MARCH 19, 1946 -- ________________________________________ _______________________________________________ PROF. EGGER'SEN SAYS: Army Education Service Keeps GIs Informed By JANIS GOODMAN "Keeping the servicemen on the Pa- cific islands informed of the war's progress on all fronts was one of the most important duties of the Educa- tional Services of the Armed Forces," Prof. Claude A. Eggertsen, of the School of Education said in an inter- view yesterday. Prof. Eggertsen, who recently re- turned to campus, served as a Dis- trict Officer of Educational Serv- ices for the 14th Naval District, the Central Pacific area, with headquarters at Pearl Harbor. A major task of the Educational Services, Prof. Eggertsen said, was to bring information tb the men situated on small islands. Talks were given by experts in theatres and movies. Al- most any subject on which the men requested information was brought up for a discussion. When they de- sired knowledge about the Japanese customs, a man who had lived in Japan for many years came to lecture. Knowledge about the volcanic origin of the Hawaiian Islands was secured from a local professor who has made Initial Meeting Of World Fund Leaders Closes SAVANNAH, Ga., March 18-RP)- In an atmosphere of apparent har- mony and international verbal back- slapping, Secretary of the Treasury Fred M. Vinson today closed the in- augural meeting of governors of the world fund and bank with a declara- tion that they are "now established and beginning to breathe as living or- ganisms. Representatives of eight nations rose one after another in a final len- ai session to praise the work done here during the last 10 days. Thlcus the $9,100,000,000 bank and $8,860,000,000 fund were formally de- clared to be in existence. Actual lend- ing and stabilizing activities, how- ever, are still months away. Earlier the governors elected, un- der a complex voting procedure, seven executive directors for the bank and a like number for the fund to go with the directorship seats automatically accorded to the United States, Brit- ain, China, France and India. The $17,000-a-year jobs, free of all taxes, were voted as forecast to Can- ada,, Netherlands, Belgium, Poland, Greece, Chile and Cuba on the Bank of Canada, Belgium, Netherlands, Mexico, Brazil, Egypt and Czecho- slovakia on the fund.

The debts represented no increase in pro- ductivity or capacity to export, and England properly argued that the debts should have been cancelled out- right." "The proposed agreement with Great Britain provides for a payment to us of 650,000,000 in final settlement for lend-lease. By thus cancelling most of the bill for lend-lease sup- plies, we avoid the mistake made after World War I when a large debt was charged to Britain. "It is expected that our liberal treatment of lend-lease and the ex- tension of the proposed loan will lead other countries to reduce their war- time claims against England and pos- sibly make them willing to provide additional financial assistance during the difficult transitional period." Acheson Calls Loan Our 'Last Chance' DETROIT, March 18-(MP)-Under Secretary of State Dean Acheson told the Economic Club of Detroit today that approval of the three and three- quarter billion dollar British loan is America's "last chance to restore world trade." If the loan is made it would result in multilateral trade, he said. "We could then again have a con- dition in which every sale gave you a chance to buy in any market you wanted to in the world," Acheson de- clared. "This situation would increase production everywhere because every- body would have a chance to compete freely in every market." Allied Policy Unity Asked PHILADELPHIA, March 18-(I)- Henry Morgenthau, Jr. tonight said Allied agreement on policy in Ger- many was basic to the settlement of other European problems and that failure to achieve this would lay the foundation for "renewed German ag- gression and future war.' T*he frmer Secre'tarvvof the Treais- a life-time study of volcanoes, Prof. Eggertsen said. While the war was in progress one of the most effective methods of keeping up morale was the "Off Duty" program the Navy organized. Over 1,200 men attended classes dur- ing leisure time, studying almost any subject from math to interior deco- rating.- On one of the islands a "Town Hall" building was constructed which served as the social center for the island. A 10 by 50 feet bul- letin board composed the front of the building. Bulletins and articles from all fronts was placed on the board, which was the most popular spot on the island, Prof. Eggertsen said. "Teaching procedures were used in highly effective combinations. For example, a large unit scheduled to go to a South Pacific island learned about conditions there through the use of a wide variety of teaching aids. Pamphlets and mimeographed mate- rials about the land, people, and health hazards, were distributed. Ci- vilians who were familiar with the area participated in a panel discus- sion at which colored films were shown. A jungle-survival teaching unit gave a demonstration of the te-iues to be used in living off the land. "A shelter was erecied to house a display of fruits, vegetables, and animals of which the prospective resident should know. Signs guid- ed the interested man to an ad- joining Quonset hut in which was located language teaching equip- melt under the supervision of a competent linguist, consisting of Investigation Is Conducted Economic Problems Subject of Research The Bureau of Business Research of the School of Business Administra- tion, in cooperation with the Bureau of Government, is conducting investi- gation and research on economic and governmental problems for the Grand Rapids Metropolitan Planning Asso- ciation. The objective of the work, accord- ing to Robert N. Cross, Research As- socigte, is to determine the proba- ble character and direction of the economic growth of the area and its impact on the community and com- munity problems. The Bureau of Business Research is at present en- gaged in the study of the seasonal characteristics of employment 'in va- rious industries and trades in the areas to determine to what degree there is seasonal unemployment, and to later investigate whether or not effective measures could be taken to smooth out the curve of seasonal em- ployment. language records and phonographs, language guides and dictionaries for Spanish, Pidgin-English, Japa- nese and Chinese." Two unique machines were used, Prof. Eggertsen explained, which pre- sented information in an attractive fashion. One, called a "Panoram," was similar to a juke box. The "Pano- ram" gave a showing of a short film such as the Battle of Pearl Harbor. The other, similar to a pin-ball ma- chine, was an automatic rater, which presented and scored a short related quiz. Naturally, Prof. Eggertsen said, all of the men were interested in their future after they were discharged, and one of the most important func- tions of the Educational Services was to act as guidance agency. The men were told how they could best apply to civilian life the skills they had learned in the navy. At the local service center were aptitude and academic tests and a dictionary of occupations to guide the men toward a future vocation. Catalogues of various colleges in the United States were available to all who desired information, and counselors to explain the G.I. Bill of Rights were on the staff, he said. "When the war ended the navy was faced with the problem of keeping up the morale of the men whoremained overseas. "On Duty" classes were or- ganized and many men were able to earn college credits in this fashion." The biggest and most successful task was the organization of the 'Navy Pacific University' at Pearl Harbor. The Educational Services took over a new hospital, built in ex- pectation of the Japanese invasion, and conducted a regular university there. A library, laboratories, ma- chine shops and classrooms were set up in Quonset huts. Even a pre-en- trance orientation period was intsi- tuted. The 'University' became popu- lar beyond all expectation and men were soon commuting to school in every conceivable vehicle from all the Hawaiian Islands, Prof. Egger tsen concluded. Band Performs Outside of Cy For the first time since the out- break of war, the University of Mich- igan Concert Band under the direc- tion of Prof. William D. Revelli is giving out-of-town performances. The first of these concerts was giv- en by thirty-five men of the Concert Band last night at a meeting of Wil- low Run veterans. This week, the Concert Band will give two more out-of-town concerts. Tomorrow night they will present a concert to be sponsored by the music clubs of Battle Creek at the Kellogg Auditorium in that city. They will give both a matinee and an evening performance Saturday in Pontiac for the Optimist Club. 'Tis BeuEer To Have ,Lrn' ei (11 LosI -- Milton once sad,"All is not lost," but accordig ",lrs.

Parting may be such sweet sor- row, Mrs. Siewerrs says, but, in fea r of being forced out of her office by the accumulation of mis- cellaneous articles, she has issued an urgent plea for students to claim their belongings. All a stud- ent need do to get back what is rightfully his, she explained, is come in, describe it, and tell ap- proximately when and where lie and the missing item parted com- pany.

SRA To P-resent Hawaii Ready For Statehood , Ediwcator Says American Influence Has Laid Foundation "American public education hasi laid the foundation for present day Hawaii which is ready for statehood," Dean Benjamin o. Wist, of Honolulu University said in a lecture yesterday on "Hawaii-Educational Experiment in American Democracy." Hawii, Dean Wist stated, is no long- er the step-child of the American people. The recent attention focused on the islands during the war has shown that they are essentially Amer- ican in character and thought. "Early Hawaiian culture had a highly civilized system of education. Learning was spread through appren- tice systems, tutors, and even for- malized classrooms so that each child knew a vocation and the mores of his culture." The foundations for the American free public school system in Hawaii were made by the missionaries in the early nineteenth century, Dean Wist declared. The first official act of the missionaries was to establish schools and to create a written Hawaiian al- phabet. Their zeal soon made Hawaii one of the most literate places in the world. Hawaii had a highly diverse racial population, Dean Wist explained. The teaching of racial tolerance in the schools has been so effective that there is little tension among the wide ranges of races and religions of the people who inhabit the island, he con- cluded.
