DREAM ROADS:
General Agreement Reached
On Master HighwayNetwork

WASHINGTON, Aug. 2-(IP)--
Is our town going to be on that
super-duper, four-lane dream net-
work of express highways,.of the
U.S. future?
That's"the question many a
tourist will ask today, reading the
announcement that after three
years, federal, state and municipal
governments have at last agreed
in general terms to an interstate
roadways master plan.
The answer?
If yours is a city of more than
100,000 population: definitely.

retary of the National Associa-
tion of Local Government Offi-
cers in Great Britain, will lecture
on "Trends in Public Administra-
tion," at 4:10 p.m. Tuesday in the
Rackham Amphitheatre.

If it's a state capital: probably
(42 out of the 48 are included).
If the population is 50,000 or
more: also probably. Only 17 of
the 199 cities in that category are
not on the system.
Small Cities
If smaller than 50,000 but on a
main avenue of traffic: probably,
although most smaller cities will
be deliberately bypassed. If your
city is out of the wash of heavy
traffic, it probably is not on the
network .
As to whether your favorite
state or U.S. highway is included
in the master plan, the Public
Roads Administration says: ask
your state highway commission or
city council. It has only the maj-
or terminals, in bare outline on
its over-all sketch. Local gov-'
ernments, it says, must supply the
details.
Michigan Area
Of the 37,681 miles in the sys-
tem, 34,799 are-or when the net-
work is completed will be-in rur-

On Far East at
Michigan State
Dr. Esson M. Gale, director of
the International Center, will give
a course on "Basic Factors in Far
Eastern Culture" during the post
summer session which opens Mon-
day at Michigan State College.
The course will place emphasis
on the geographic, historical and
social backgrounds, and the sin-
itic civilizations of China, Japan
and Korea, according to Dr. Gale.
Recent events and present trends
will be given special considera-
tion, he said.
Since the post session is de-
signed primarily for veterans it is
probable that many of the stu-
dents will have served in the Far
East and have backgrounds of
personal experience and observa-
tion on the subjects delt with, Dr.
Gale explained.
In addition to a career in pub-
lic administration in China, where
he served with both the American
and Chinese governments, Dr.
Gale has given courses on the
Far East at the University of Cal-
ifornia, Northwestern University
and the University of Michigan.
His last visit to the Far East was
in 1924 when he traveled with
Gen. Stillwell to western China
to serve as special assistant to
the American ambassador.

Technlcal Aid
At Willow Run
More than 70 graduate and un-
dergradua* engineering students
are helping to pay their way
through school and at the same
time are receiving valuable train-
ing by working at Willow Run in
their spare time.
At the present there are 40
graduate and 30 undergraduate
students working as research per-
sonel in aerodynamics, propulsion,
e 1 e c t r o n i c s, instrumentations,
structures, and wind tunnel oper-
ation. Some students are working
as photographers, draftsmen and
stenographers.
The students work an average
of 60 hours per month on projects
for the United States Army Air
Forces, Signal Corps, and Navy
besides commercial flying.
There are few undergraduates
at the present time because so
many working on the projects
graduated in June. The present
openings will be filled at the be-
ginning of the fall term.
The experience being received
by the students is of a highly
technical nature. They are gath-
ering excellent background train-
ing in research techniques as well
as contributing much to the solu-
tions of the problems at hand.
One of the largest single pro-
jects the students are working on
is the supersonic wind tunnel, now
being calibrated for extensive re-
search in aerodynamics. Because
the tunnel is one of the first of
its kind in the country, the stu-
dent staff has been faced with
many 'unusual problems which
have given them unusual experi-
ences but valuable ones.
Kaiser-Frazer Co.
Buys New Plant
WILLOW RUN, Mich., Aug 2-
WP)- Kaiser-Frazer Corporation
today announced the purchase of
the Graham-Paige Co. plant at
Indianapblis, Ind., a subsidiary of

rolling mill would be taken over
Oct. 1, "further strengthening our
basic material supply," and "as-
sisting Kaiser-Frazer in achiev-
ing its present goal of 2,000. cars
a day."
The corporation meanwhile an-
nounced that despite material
shortages which closed the big
Willow Run plant for a day and
a half a new record of 13,213 cars
were produced in July. The pre-
vious high was 12,039 in June.
Overseas Students
The number of student veter-
ans studying outside of the Unit-
ed States under the benefits of
the G.I. Bill, has passed the 3,000
mark, the Veterans Administra-
tion reported yesterday.
