Foreign Student Enrollment
Greatest in Scientific Courses

I

A comparatively large enrollment
of students from other countries is
.lso found in the fields of law and
education.
Jdergraduates Outnumbered
In every field except engineering,
the number of graduate foreign stu-
dents exceeds the number of under-
graduates.
The large.t number of students
from a single country studying in
any one field are the 29 Indian stu-
dents who are enrolled in the chemi-
cal engineering department.
China runs a close second with 15
students studying mechanical engi-
neering at the University.
Post-Graduate Work
High on the list of foreign students
concentrated °n a particular field of
study are the 19 doctors doing post-
graduate work in thoracic surgery
and X-ray.
Forestry ranks among the top ten
fields in size of foreign student en-
rollinent with 14 students from other
countries enrolled in this school of
the University.
Engineering Fields
Eight Turkish students are study-
ing mechanical engineering, and eight
more students from various other
countries are doing work in thefield
of naval archiecture and marine en-
gineering.
Total numbers of foreign students
from all countries enrolled in the
fields of engineering are mechanical
engineering, 50; chemical engineer-
ing, 39; and civil engineering, 14.
Total numbers from all countries in
other fields are public health, 21;
medicine, 14; chemistry, 13; law, 10.

TB Seals Sent'
To U.S. Homes
Christmas Campaign
Begins Tomorrow
Millions of families . throughout
Michigan and the Urnited States will
receive letters starting tomorrow,
sealed with a little one-inch picture
of a lamplighter.
The letters will contain a sheet of
the National Tuberculosis Associa-
tion's 1§46 Christmas seals, which
they will be asked to buy.
The campaign against tuberculosis
has been supported both in the state
and nationally, by the sale of Christ-
mas Seals for nearly 40 years. Their
purchase gives support to a campaign
to control the disease which causes
the greatest number of deaths among
young people between 15 and 35. Tu-
berculosis kills at the rate of one per-
son every ten minutes.
The Michigan Tuberculosis Asso-
ciation has been at work since 1908
on a program of education and con-
trol and working for the provision of
public funds.
Among the services which have
been set up in the state by the Christ-
mas Seal are education through
schools, industries, clinics, posters
and libraries.
1s. Shares Dearth
Of Atomuc Materials
Only by international cooperation
can the United States get enough
raw materials for peaceful harnessing
of atomic energy, Prof. K. K. Landes,
chairman of the geology department,
believes.
This country is in no position to
wage an extensive atomic -war, he
said, pointing out that the greatest
known supplies of raw materials for
atomic energy are far removed from
the United States in Central Africa,
India, and near the Arctic Circle in
Canada. If i; is any consolation, he
added, these supplies are likewise at
considerable distance from the in-
dustrial centers of the other big
powers.

PHOTOGRAPHERS ACCOMPANY MR. LEWIS - Sporting a cane,
John L. Lewis, mine workers' chief, has the company of still and mo-
tion picture photographers as he strolls for two downtown Washington,
D.C. blocks, from United Mine Workers headquarters to a hotel for
lunch. Lewis accepted without comment a court summons to answer
a contempt of court citation Monday.

Michigan taxpayers are paying 288
different taxes to the state, local
and national government, according
to Henry Steffens, director of the
Michigan Survey.
Steffens said that most of the
taxes are passed on to the ultimate
consumer, including those paid in-
directly.
"Business and industry act as mere
collection agencies," he declared, but
"the ultimate consumer in purchas-

ing for use rather than re-sale, can-
not avoid paying all taxes levied
against the commodity prior to the
time of the retail purchase."
Pointing out that governmental
revenue last year in M i c h i g a n
amounted to approximately $550 for
each man, woman and child, stef-
fens estimated that each taxpayer
spends 25 to 40 per cent of his gross
earnings for government.
