125 YEARS OF SERVICE IN. the history of public education, Indiana holds two dis-
tinctions. It was the first commonw ealth to recognize in |
its constitution the state's obligation to educate its youth, | And, as a direct result, it founded the first state Ehiversay . west of the Allegheny mountains. » thw That university, established when the state itself, was | only three years old, marks its 125th birthday today. On this anniversary, every Hoosier may well take pride in the accomplishments of Indiana univ ersity. During its 125-year span, Indiana university has grown great in size. Even further expansion lies ahead for, as | the booklet, “Indiana University Looks Ahead,” points out; the Bloomington campus, on the basis of the experience | after world war [, may well anticipate an enrollment in the first post-war year of 6100 students, in contrast with a total of 5300 in the last pre-war year. This trend may be
expected to continue to a peak of at least 10,000 full- -time |
students and an additional 10,000 enrolle d on a part-time | basis. . : ” ” s = » » SIZE ALONE, however, is not the measure of a uni-
versity’s greatness. lives of its students and its influence on the history of the]
state and nation. Here also, Indiana university has had a
distinguished: record. Thousands of its sons and daughters |
have risen to leadership as statesmen, educators, scientists, writers, preachers and business men. In the profession and the arts, Indiana university has left an enduring mark. The Indiana legislature 125 years ago had a great | vision. And the devoted men and women who have guided |
the destinies of Indiana university in the years between |
have been true to their trust. Indiana, and the world, is better for that early dream,
and for Indiana university.
CHURCHILL COMES THROUGH
T Americans the highlight of Prime Minister Churchill's |
long report to commons Thursday was’ his generous tribute to the American armies that turned back the . Nazi offensive. First came Marshal Montgomery's sharp | rebuke of the slurs by some British newspapers, and his eloquent praise of Gen. Eisenhower:and the American soldier. virtually all Americans, with losses of 60 to 80 men to one | Briton, and that the great battle will be regarded as ‘‘an ever-famous “American victory,’ In defending his Greek policy, the prime minister | .. pointed out that the widespread criticism had started in England rather than here. Though we challenged his methods and results as self-defeating, we never questioned his purpose of preventing a Communist minority dictatorship | in that country. But now Churchill, by shifting British | support from an unpopular king to a respected nonpartisan regent and by striving for a representative coalition government pending a free plebiscite, had put himself in better position to prevent power seizure “by what he -calls a] “Trotskyite” minority. : s s s 8-8 8

‘Secret’ History,

epitomized in a bitter analysis of its acts, interlarded with declarations that it had neither sound information nor sound judgment and that it did great harm to the United States. Mr. Root, who was a correspondent in Paris for 13 years and present when France fell, speaks out strongly for De Gaulle and the Free French in this work, which was begun: with the help of Pierre | Lazareff former editor of Paris Soir. (Scribner, two | vols., $10.) + The book is not objective history and should have | been entitled. * ‘my “secret history,” for it bears the
| imprint of Mr. Root's opinions on every page, includes |”
¢onjectures, excerpts from speeches’and many matters that never were secret.
' Adequate Confirmation Is Lacking
MOREOVER, Mr. Root, feeling that he is attacking “powerful men. and powerful interests” who hide things from the people, says: facts has not been easy. To confirm many of them would obviously have been impossible.” But a book that professes to be “the secret history” would have to get confirmation, especially when ‘it makes such drastic charges against the American state department. Mr. Root's belief is that the state department wanted to act only through leaders, and hag no confidence in the people, and made no attempt to ascer- | tain .the will of the people. Toward the end Mr. Root considers the charge that the President dominates the state department and that one-man government is bad for democracies. But he fails to give this the punch he puts { behind his attack on the members of the state de- | partment,

guson (R. Mich.) and Ball (R, Minn.) made the Norfolk trip and fook testimony far into the night. Much of the blame for what they found, it is believed, will be fastened not on workers, but on management of the shipyard. The.results of this first trip, and of others tobe made soon, may have a strong bearing on what congress does about President Roosevelt's request for a national service act and the Bailey-May bill, which would impose tight controls on 4-F draft registrants and others between 18 and 45. Many mémbers of congress, despite pleas by Undersecretary of War Patterson, Undersecretary of Navy Bard, Gen. George C. Marshall and others. have heen convine that no new legislation would be needed if maximum use were made of manpower under powers -already granted. The house military affairs committee has been holding hearings for a week on the 4-F bill. Administration friends believed they had enough sup=port to get favorable action on a bill which, instead

- FIRST, IT WILL try to find out if “slow-downs™ and loafing in war plants is as extensive as has been charged, and whether production “limits” re= ported to be Set by some unions are important factors in war production. Second, it will try to discover whether discrimination against Negroes and women, by management, has been a check to getting enough workers to keep production at top levels, and whether thére has been any other mishandling of labor supply. Third, It will seek to determine whether alleged “loose”. government policy on pricing of some war production items. allowing manufacturers to produce goods at higher costs than should be the case, has encouraged lax production policies in certain war plants. Tentative plans are that the committee will go to Detroit for a continuance of the investigation begun in Norfolk, and visits to Cleveland, Pittsburgh or other war productfon centers are possible. Members believe that by giving congress a firsthand report they will be able to provide information

RELIEF. FOR COMBAT TROOPS "EP. CLARE BOOTHE LUCE calls attention to a serious situation on the Italian front. On the basis of her visit to the 5th army, in which she talked with hundreds of soldiers, she reported to congress that many are bitter because they get no relief. The 34th division, for instance, has had over 400 actual combat days. Naturally many of the men come to feel that they are forgotten and neglected, that relief will come only by wounds or death. The bravest—and none will question that the men of the gallant 5th army have earned their rank along with the best——cannot sustain the highest morale under such conditions. Moreover, extreme fatigue does not produce top efficiency. Rep. Luce suggests that the solution is in extending to the hard-pressed ground troops an adaptation of the air corps relief system. Specifically, she proposes: “In addition to the rotation and furlough plans there must soon be added a fixed tolir of duty-under-fire for the individual soldier, after which he should be given a sub‘stantial period of service in a’nhon-combat area before returning to battle duty. The period of time would natur “ally depend on the local exigencies of battle, and would be fixed by. commanders in the field.” . That thiis- goal is not easy to achieve, under present itions of transport shortage and combat pressure, is

There is good reason to believe that since Hitler's | rise to power, the Nazis have been shifting as many i of their old war industries as possible, fromi Western to Eastern Germany.

The idea was to remove them as far as possible from probable bomber bases | most of which, “the military minds figured, would be in Britain and France,
Nazis Still Have Going War Industry
THIS WOULD account: for the unpleasant revelation, since the battle of the<bulge began, that today that the Nazis have more planes than they had a year ago despite 12 months of the most intensive bombing ever directed against any country. In addition to airplanes, the Germans have also | been turning out enormous quantities of V-1, V-2 and | other “secret” weapons, plus scores of small submarines, apparently fabricated inland and shipped in sections to ports where they were assembled. As both the Ruhr and the Saar—Germany's other coal and iron industrial center—have almost been reduced to riibble, it is obvious that somewhere in
‘Germany the Nazis ‘still have a going war industry. |
And that inaustry is believed to cluster in and around Silesia. Once that is lost, it is difficult to see how the German armies could long remain in the field. However, military experts here warn,-that does not necessarily mean a quick end of the war. The Nazi§ may retreat to inner defense positions, as they did in France, and contrive to hold out for a considerable time.
German Morale Is Key Factor
THE RUSSIANS, for example, | Stalingrad five months against a numerically superior | and better equipped attacking force. And again, they b stalled the Germans for 250 days at Sevastopol, a siege which cost the Nazis 150.000 men-—including 60,000 killed—and enormous quantities of materiel. Should the Nazis hold the Siegfried line in the west, and comparable positions somewhere east ot Berlin, the length of the war ‘would depend pretty much on German morale.
