Chinese Funds Help Support U.S. University Problems Arise in Renovation of School By The Associated Press American prestige may be re- ported waning in China, but a no- table exception is an American university which keeps going part- ly through Chinese support. Yenching University is one of several such American schools in China. Located near Peiping, it is the creation of U. S. Ambassador John Leighton Stuart, who organ- ized it and served as its president for more than 20 years. On the morning of Pearl Harbor the Japanese army took over Yenching's campus, where the red columns and soaring roofs of clas- sic Chinese architecture conceal American solidity in concrete and steel-and a Chinese-American understanding that is just as solid. When victory liberated Stuart, he found the campus in bad shape because of Japanese neglect and abuse. He could not then get money from abroad to reopen, so Chinese in North China put up the money. He reopened to freshmen only-400 of them-in October, 1945. The government was offering his Chinese faculty members good jobs, but tney stuck by Yenching. The school still needed money, so they voted themselves salaries too small to pay for their food, and lived by seliing off their personal possessions. .Road to Peace' Essay Contest Announced by Social Institute ly An annual essay contest award- ing $3,000 in cash to the five un- dergraduate students submitting1 the best 3 hemes on the topic: "Roads to Industrial Peace," has been announced by the Tamiment Social and Economic Institute.
