Give a Dollar Help a Scholar Students have been solicited for funds many times this year. Individuals and groups have contributed generously. Tomorrow an ther drive eloses the World Student Service Fend. Last year the goal on this campus M-as easily reached. This year we are a nation at war and the funds contributed to the WSSF have a much deeper significance than ever before. Previous to this year monies contributed went to help Chinese and many other young people throughout the world who were either in concentration camps or were unable to con tinue their education for lack of funds and facilities. An all-relief organization, the WSSF went into the concentration camps, into the pitiful schools of China, into the occupied coun tries of Europe with books, magazines, news papers in an attempt to alleviate the craving of the unfortunate youths for opportunities to continue their education. THIS YEAR THE WSSF HAS ADDED ANOTHER PROJECT TO ITS RELIEF PRO GUAM. WITH THE UNITED STATES' EN TRANCE INTO THE WAR, IT GOES INTO THE CAMPS WHERE AMERICANS ARE BEING HEM) PRISONERS. THE WSSF IS THE ONLY ORGANIZATION WHICH CAN GO INTO PRISON CAMPS WITH HOOKS AND SEND REPRESENTATIVES THERE. All oth r drives on the campus have been for men in the forces here in this country, or for casualties of war. This is the only drive for men who have had to leave the United States, and who after being taken prisoners are taken care of in so far as providing read ing materials for them while in the custody of our enemies. We have all read of the suffering and mo notony of living in the prison and concentra tion camps. Many of these stories are highly colored for effect and many are not.

A new addition to the curriculum of Ne braska's telegraphic school was the class in Morse telegraphy for women. At this time there was a severe shortage of telegraph oper ators in commercial lines since a great demand was evidenced for these artisans in any line of the service. Twenty girls enrolled in this class were qualified upon completing the course to enter commercial work. The university library had undergone an encounter with the war as four members Of the staff left for service thus producing a shortage of labor and a necessity for closeing the library at six o'clock every Friday and Saturday instead of the usual ten o'clock. A new feature in the 1918 Daily was the column "Do You Know?" Unusual and inter esting facts about the war were noted. Typical of items stated were the following: "Do you know that seven mills work on clothes for army men, that 20.000,000 pairs of shoes are ordered for the army. Loans made to co-belligerents at the end of 1917 total $3,882,900,000. Total deaths in the army from March 14 to May 6, 1917 reported to be 1,191. Only 132 were killed in action. Professor L. W. Chase, head of the agri cultural engineering department was commis sion a major in the Ordnance department of the army and was assigned to the motor sec tion as a tractor expert. 1 eanor n By Alan Jacobs fines of a barbed wire fence with absolutely no contact with the outside world would be almost unendurable to peoples who, heretofore, had led a free life. Their existence for the duration can be brightened very much by the opportunity to read about what is going on. Whatever spark of hope remains for eventual freedom will be fanned by being able to retain some contact with the peoples at home. Half of the funds contributed from all of the forty-eight states will be turned over to help Ch inese students continue their educa tion. The Chinese government is so fully aware of the necessity of well educated men and women that it will not permit students to join the armies of our warbitten ally. BY CONTRIBUTING TO THE WSSF, YOU AND YOU ARE HELPING TRAIN THE LEADERS OF THE CHINA TO HE. BY GIVING A DIME, A DOLLAR. YOU AND YOU ARE TAKING OUT SOME OF THE DULL SPOTS IN THE LIVES OF AMERICAN SOLDIERS WHO ARE NOW PRISONERS OF WAR. BY PLEDGING ALL YOU CAN, YOU AND YOU ARE ALLEVI ATING IN SOME MEASURE THE MENTAL SUFFERINGS OF THOUSANDS AND THOU SANDS OF YOUNG MEN AND YOUNG WOMEN IN THE C O N C E X T R A T I O X CAMPS OF GERMANY AND OCCUPIED EUROPE. The drive ends tomorrow. The goal of $750 for this campus which was set before we en tered the war should be reached and even doubled. THE REPRESENTATIVES OF THE WSSF CAN DO NO MORE THAN YOU GIVE. So contribute what you can to "an organization which is dedicated to help young people like yourselves. Lists . . . (Continued from Page l.i Otoe; Billy Krlh Kiel. Joaaaea: I .a err are t kitiradea.

Studying vigorously the problem of limiting war profits, congress has all but passed a $19,212,773,260 war appropriation bill.

Massed German bombers gave the British island stronghold its worst attack of the war and touched off the two-thousandth alarm at the bomb-scarred Mediterranean base since Jun, 1940. Meanwhile, axis planes were again pounding Britain's great naval base at Alexandria, following up a recent attack in which 52 persons were reported killed and 80 wounded in the heaviest raid of the year. Every day, more young American men are being inducted into the army and by next month the induction rate will be doubled.
