Iy ROSE PERLBERG
In a glass-walled office build-
g' high above Manhattan's East
ver, an international team is
rking to keep the state of Hun-
ry on the map.
Through United Nations Head-
arters in New York is channeled
e bulk of aid to the Hungarian
ople.
Since Oct. 28, when the Security
uncil first met to discuss the
bleni men and women from
untries all over the world have
>keg unceasingly to relieve the
ngarian situation.
V7 Duckworth-Barker, Press Of-
er in the UN Office for Relief
_Hungarian People, is one of
ese workers. And his job has
aore than average meaning for
Gained Special Insight.
As visiting Professor of English
Lerature at the University of
apest before World War II, .he
tiried lnsight not only into Hun-
trian language and literature, but
reir wta of life. .
Bec se of this first, hand ex-
rience, Duckworth-Barker was
ke foi his help in the Hungar-
n problem .
The UN hndles relief for Hun-
trians in their country and for
te thousands of refugees tem-
n'arily seeking asylum in Aus-
ia_,he said.
The Englishman explained the
N first started concentrating on
lief Nov. 15, when the General
ssembly called on Secretary Gen-
1 Dag Hammarskjold to raise
tributions from governments of
member-nations.
"rgent pleas were sent to about
Icountries," he continued, "but
le response has been small and
scouraging."
Pledged Money
Suntries have pledged money
d 'material goods, he said, but
>t nearly enough to see the Hun-
rianis through their crisis.
e feels the instability of the
itical 'situation in. Hungary is
-dmg up contributions.
$ YN-purchased supplies are de-
vered through the International
ed Cross, Duckworth-Barker ex-
aned, "because the Red Cross
universally respected and the
N, with no formal agency to
ndle the problem, has no work-
s on the spot."
Relief "in the early stages" has
en effective, he says. Soup kit-
'eas have been set up and cloth-
g dl.stributed. "But industry, the
asis and life-blood of the people,
still flat on its back."
Relief worker Duckworth-Bark-
defines the "big problem" as
"tting factories and coal mines
ging again-reviving manufac
ring, communications, and dis-
ibutions systems."
After Jan. 1, Hungarian work-
s who didn't go back to their
bs, not for personal reasons, but
k of facilities, will be getting
Scompensation. ,
"Their dispair may lead to an-
her uprising," he added grimly.
Face Large Problems
Relief workers face a problem
most as large as technical aid,
id more imminent, in reconstruc-
on.
Gazing sadly out of the window
his comfortably furnished of-
cDuckworth-Barker described
e "wretched conditions" under
hich a majority of Hungarians
:e forced to live-"in damaged
mes with no heat-often exposed
the elements." (Thousands of
mes have been demolished.)
Said the man who once lived
th them: "Such a life must not
ly weaken an already physically
WU ERTH L

exhausted people, but lower their
morale-high as it has been."
Attempts to get Hungary back
on her feet-are not limited to aid
from the UN and the West. (Pri-
vate voluntary organizations and
the general public have been con-
tributing.) Russia is also sending
technical aid and so far has not
interfered with UN work, Duck-
w orth-Barker said.
Tht fact aid has reached only a
part of the people is due to in-
sufficient supplies - "just not
enough to go around." Right now,
"the Hungarians are so desperate
they'll take help from wherever
they can get it," he added. -
Duckworth-Baker's tone is light-
er and his face brightens when he
speaks of the refugee situation.
Constrastingly he finds this prob-
lem "encouraging . . . and with
anything like luck, we should be
able to solve it."
UN Handles Contribution
Contributions and offers to ac-
commodate Hungarians fleeing
their war - torn homeland go
through the UN High Commis-
sioner's Office (headquarters: Ge-
neva, Switzerland), a body estab-
lished specifically to handle ref-
ugee problems.
"We have gotten over and above
what we hoped for in an appeal
to UN member-nations Nov. 29,"
he said happily. "The air lift is
successfully operating and the
United States and1 other countries
have considerably increased ,their
quotas."
"Seldom has any group of refu-
gees been so welcomed and re-.
teived as heroes wherever they
migrated," he declared.
UN aid goes to the approxi-
mately 60,000 Hungarians who
stay in Austria "because they can't
get away or prefer to remain near
Hungary for immediate return in
case the political s ituat io n
changes," Duckworth-Barker re-
marked.
All Refugees Cared For
Refugees who use Austria as a
stepping-stone to other countries
are also cared for.
Funds (a dollar a day supports
one person) pouring in from gov-
ernments and/o, private volun-
tary organizations keep the dis-
placed Hungarians clothed, fed
and sheltered - "although living
conditions are far from the best."
"Unless there is another enor-
mous influx into Austria the prob-
lem should not become desperate,"
Duckworth-Barker feels. But he
added that Operation Relief to
Refugees "still needs as much help
as we can get."
So far workers have put their
energy into coping with only the
present crisis.
Considering Hungary's future,
Duckworth-Ba'rker thinks, frowns,
and shakes his head pessimistic-
ally.
"It will be at least a year until
we can begin to'see the end of the
ruins providing there is no new
uprising," he predicts.
"The most we can ultimately
hope for in that country is a gov-
ernment with a more liberal policy,
and Russian troops withdrawn to
certain specified zones," he sob-
erly concludes.

To increase understanding of
social behavious through the use
of scientific methods is the aim of
the University's Institute of So-
cial Research
The Social Research Institute
was founded in 1946 as "an agency
Steinhoff,
Crary Plans
Presented
(Continued from Page 1)
4) Travel arrangements at
Christmas would be staggered, with
students leaving as -they finish
their examinations.
5) Students would have an ear-
lier start in securing jobs at the
beginning of the summer.
Three Disadvantages
Prof. Crary also notes these
disadvantages of his plan:
1) Rescheduling of semesters
would put the University's semes-
ters at odds with those of other
schools. Freshmen entering in
January would not have finished
high school semesters by the time
the University's second semester
has begun.
2) Alumni may not like coming
here in May instead of the tradi-
tional June month of reunions.
3) Athletic Department may
object to a disturbance of spring
schedules and classes being held
during September football train-
ing.
The Crary Plan, as outlined, was
presented to the students !n a
referendum instigated by the old
Student Legislature, and received
approximately 4500 votes, twice
that off all other plans voted upon.
This, however, was reportedly
ignored by the 1953-55 calendaring
committee, which found the Crary
Plan too much of a change and
entirely infeasible for the Univer-
sity.
In spite of its popularity, the
plan was then regarded impracti-
cal.
Steinhoff Speaks
Prof. William R. Steinhoff,
chairman of the junior and senior
faculty counselors, also had some
definite suggestions for rearrang-
ing the school calendar.
Under his plan, the fall semester
would begin the week following
Labor Day, allowing students to
work until then, and complete
classes by Christmas. Examina-
tions would follow Christmas vaca-
tion in January.
Both this and the Crary Plan
would leave no time for students
to work prior to Christmas Day,
one of the major student com-
plaints about the present calen-
dar.
Prof Steinhoff explained that
his plan would leave the necessary
interval between semesters and yet
the second semester would begin
in January, again letting the stu-
dent out in May and giving him
the two to three week jump on
summer jobs.
Prof. Steinhoff stressed the im-
portance of getting rid of the
"lame-duk" period of classes and
unifying the first semester, there-
by providing a solid period of in-
struction.
"As long as you think of the
calendar as a series of compro-
mises," Prof. Steinhoff said, "it
has no steady basis to stand on."

for conducting research on prob-
lems concerning human behaviour
in social settings."
Since its founding, the Insti-
tute has attracted the attention
of administrators and the general
public as well as social scientists,
for the scope of its work has been
broad,stressing the utilitarian as-
pects and the obligations of so-
cial science.
Study Diverse Problems
Many diverse problems have
been studied, and all studies were
selected because of basic theoret-
ical significance or immediate so-
cial implications-illustrating: a
philosophy of the Institute that
scientific methods can make a
major contribution to knowledge
about social affairs and human
welfare.
In. generalthese problems have
been broad enough to require teamp
research rather than the work of
separate individuals.
The Social Research' Institute's
program encompasses a variety of
activities, for in order to develop
research skills there must be con-
stant training of personnel both
for the staff in the Institute and
for research in other agencies.
Consultation Program
Also, in order, to have a con-
stant exchange of findings and
methods with other researchers,
there is an active program of con-
sultation, publication, and com-
munication and contact with col-
leagues.
The Institute also conducts re-
search on methods of research in-
volving new and more complex
problems, and develops procedures
for the interpretation and appli-
cation of research findings-thus
leading to the training of leaders
and technicians in the use of re-
search results.
Because of its broad programs,
the Social Research Institute has
become focus and purposeful stim-
ulator of some controversy about
the meaning of research results,
the methods of social science and
the means for enhancing the
methods of social science and the
means for enhancing the creative
output of social scientists.
Conducts Research
The chief purpose of the Insti-
tute is the conduct of significant
research, which includes problems
of research from its inception to
its application.
The intent in establishing the
Institute of Social Research was to
have within the University com-
munity a staff and facilities for
certain kinds of social research
which could not readily be found
within the existing branches of
the University.
The Institute was established as
administratively separate from the
teaching departments and schools,
but closely allied with them
through the sharing of some
teaching and other professional
activities.
The staff of the Institute con-
sists of about 70 research scientists,
a home office clerical and admin-
istrative staff of about 50, and a
staff of part-time supporting re-
search personnel numbering about
200.
The Institute of Social Research
is supported primarily through
contracts with government agen-
cies, private. business firms, and
through grants from research-
supporting foundations.
The Institute also receives com-
pensation for certain services pro-
vided to other parts of the Uni-
versity.

by Ralph Drischell as Topaze, is
magnificent; David Metcalf, the
director, milks every possible
laugh from the script and throws
in several hilarious innovations
and Hermon Baker's settings
supply near-perfect background.
"Topaze" is a story of extrava-
gant extremes, an old and tested
comedy formula, and concerns
an astonishing truthful and
naive schoolteacher at a boy's
school suddenly transported into
the corrupt mileau of French
politics and business. His trans-
formation into this new environ-
ment is the rough outline of the
action and DAC exploits this far-
cical situation to the hilt.
Good theatre can only be
