3. It never pleaded “inability pay” even 30 per gent. ® ” # REASONS why the union may pt: : 1, The 174 per cent recomimendation is more than half of 30 per cent, : 2, The corporation, with official backing from “the fact-finding board, is not likely to go beyond 17.4 without an indefinite extension of the General Motars strike. 3. The strike is now 52 days old, a peyless period important to 200,000 men, their families, and others more or less directly affected. “We recommend,” said Messrs, Garrison, Stacy and Eisenhower, that the management, the union and the workers join in a wholehearted effort to restore production as speedily as possible; to continue it without, interruption, and to lift it to new levels of efficiency and capacity in the in- - terests of all the people.” "8 a PRESIDENT TRUMAN added his hope that “the parties will follow the recommendations and bring about a speedy end to this most costly conflict.” The President said he waa “satisfied that if such a settlement is made, the industrial skies will rapidly clear and American industry and labor will go forward to new heights of achievement in the interests of the whole coun-

Attacks by Dr. Marvin and Dr. Bradford followed a demand by | Senator Wayne More (R, Ore), for-

law school, that education “dispense with the academic luxuries it has taken for granted.” Dr. Marvin suggested: ONE: Temporary faculty appointments. Assignments could be given younger men who would carry the load, if only for one term, until faculty ‘members return. Universities thus would not find themselves with a topheavy faculty structure when enrollments return

to normal, TWOQ. Regular promotions far faculty members on leave. Failure to receive promotions in absentia, causes many to seek other employment, he sald. THREE: Greater classroom economy In time and space. If neces» sary, begin classes at 7:30 and 8 a. m. instead of the conventional 9 a.m; keep them open until 10 p. m. or later. College classrooms usually are idle in the afternoon. Laboratories, normally restricted to the afternoon, can be used in the evening. . ‘Mass Production’ Dean-Mitchel) Dreese, 0.-W-U.’s: director of veterans’ education, sug-

methods as used successfully in universities by the army and navy in the war. “Instead of six small classes in one subject, let's hava one large class and employ visual and auditory aids,” he said. A Dr, Bradford challenged the assumption that “this is a passing phase,” snd said veterans would affect educational methods for all time, “We must gear our program to the needs of the veteran and not expect him to alter his needs to fit a program we have followed since 1870,” he said. | Meanwhile, in Cleveland, where the -Assogiation of American Col leges is in session, presidents of smaller schools reported they were able to absorh much of the overflow, but that veterans show little interest. One president estimated the smaller schools could take care of 250,000 men. | Dean Dreese pointed out tha average veteran wants a degree from a ‘name school, and suggested using smaller colleges as! “feeders.” “It's an extension of the junior college idea,” he said. “They could attend the smaller schools for two years if assured of admission to & larger school for graduation.” Dr, Bradford said this would be discussed at Cleveland. i Dean Dreesg said abandoned army camps.could be utilized in the same fashion — made adjuncts to college campuses. .
