the campus is the Pharmacy col

mistaken viewpoint.

BY JACK CRESSMAN.
Calling the proposed American $3,750,000,000 loan to Britain an
"integral part of the pattern of Anglo-American understanding," Dr.
Clair Wilcox, director of the office of international trade policy in
the department of state, took a definite stand in favor of the loan in
his discussion before university students in the Union ballroom
Monday.
Dr. Wilcox, who was present at the conference when the loan
was negotiated, presented the topics of discussion regarding the loan
that are receiving national con
sideration today. He also out
lined the accomplishments and
proposals made by the American
government toward reduction ot
free trade barriers.
Need for Loan.
Great Britain's actual need for
the loan was the first question
considered by Dr. Wilcox. In
substance, he said: "Britain has
always been dependent on its im
ports. Their entire economy was
converted to wartime expediency
for six years and they now need
to buy more goods than they can
possibly balance with exports.
"Britain needs our loan so they
can get back on their feet. They
will use it to buy foodstuffs, ma
chinery and raw materials."
Probably the most important
question in the minds of the
American public, Dr. Wilcox said,
concerns America's gain from the
transaction. His answer was:
"The loan will enable England to
buy goods in the United States,
thus providing employment and
income for our people."
Stipulation.
"Of utmost importance to our
trade program, is the stipulation
carried in the agreement that
Britain will remove all exchange
control on current transactions
between the two countries. Eng
land's creditors will be paid in
money they can spend in America.
The loan makes it possible for
anyone, anywhere, to change their
money to dollars and buy Ameri
can goods.
Many Americans are doubtful
if the loan will ever be paid," Dr.
Wilcox said. "Certainly this loan

Debet
Thus far in life Ginsburg has
been most unprominent, but after
the USA party (tickets 20 cents)
he probably will (can be pur
chased at Union) receive world
(or at door) acclaim. Everyone
should be at the Union ballroom
promptly at 9 p.m. so that HIS
arrival will not be missed.
P. S. If you are feeling en
remotely like our obfuscated shoe
clerk, then gnash your uppers no
longer. After you come to the
USA dance, you shall be no more
obscure.
Obscure, that is.
Like Ginsburg, that is.
