though both were excellent sets of
resolutions. "The whole meaning of
these documents will be disclosed
by what will happen," he concluded.
The major problems of world eco-
nomic cooperation as listed by Prof.
Viner were the reduction, and elimi-
nation in some cases, of trade bar-
riers, stimulating a healthy flow of
capital, easing of mass unemployment
and of depressions, the regulation of
monopolies, the development of back-
ward areas, and providing access to
raw materials.
He stated that the United States
was taking the lead in the reduc-
tion of world trade barriers by
concluding bi-lateral agreements,
but claimed that reduction of bar-
riers was too slow in relation to the
dimensions of the problem.
Prof. Viner's suggestion to reduce
world unemployment would be the
establishment of an International
Fund with a stabilization fund of
30 or 40 billions.

The Art Cinema League will pres-
ent a private showing of surrealist
films at 8:30 p. m. EWT (7:30 p. m.'
CWT) tomorrow in the Rackham
Amphitheatre.
The three shorts produced in Hol-
lywood are entitled "Meshes of the
Afternoon," "An Experimentation in
Choreography," and "On Land."
The movies are symbolic, mixing
reality with the world of fantasy
and dreams. Individual interpreta-
tion is wide and the films are a new
approach to cinematographic crea-
tion and art form.
Although this showing is on an
invitational basis, a limited number
of invitations have been left open
to the public. Those interested in
surrealist art, new techniques of
photography, and movie production
should call Herbert Otto, Art Cinema
League manager, between 12 noon
and 1 p. m. (11 a. m. and noon CWT)
EWT today at 2-2218 for admittance.

Anderson Asks
School Revision
"School children must be taught
the many symbols which permeate
our 20th century culture or all teach-
ing will be sterile," Dr. G.L.Anderson,
professor of education at the Uni-
versity of Minnesota, said yesterday
at the 16th Annual University Sum-
mer Education Conference.
"The child who learns to read is
acquiring the process of making blots
of ink on a white page mean some-
thing. The learning of arithmetic is
essentially nothing but a process of
understanding the number system,"
Dr. Anderson pointed out.
Make Concepts Meaningful
"Therefore, the social ntudies must
make such concepts as democracy,
justice, nation, frontier, constitution,
and tolerance, meaningful," he stat-
ed.
Dr. Anderson gave this example of
the "meaning" of education:
"A child who learns that H2SO4 is

sulphuric acid may still unconcerned-
ly spill it on his-clothes. But to learn
the destructive powers of sulphuric
acid through direct experience makes
the child aware of all acids in the fu-
ture."
Admitting that all understandings
cannot be developed through direct
experience, Dr. Anderson praised the
work of audio-visual aids and sug-
gested that the printed word more
often be considered the aid to audio
or visual material, rather than the
end itself.
Repetitive Drill Useless
"Associations learned through re-
petetive drill without meaning are
virtually useless," Dr. Anderson said.
"Pupils educated in such schools of-
ten give glib answers without aware-
ness of their significance or mean-
ing."

PARE NTS
Help your daughter
to win security
Your daughter of high school gradu-
ation age has known only the extra-
ordinary wartime employment situa-
tion, when most anyone can get a
job at big pay.

The time is fast approaching when
employers will again be exacting in
their requirements. You can protect
your daughter's future by making
sure that she is equipped with spe-
cialized training to meet post-war
competition.
A few months spent in Hamilton
Business College will qualify her for
a better and more secure position.
It will lift her above untrained com-
petition. It will entitle her to the
assistance of our Placement Depart-
ment, throughout here career.
