Occupied Education
-Nazi Style
Washington Imagine a college class in which every stu
dent agreed with every professional statement. Imagine a'uni
versify that, allows its students to read only the books on a
designated list and no others, on pain of impriisonnient..
Sounds fantastic, doesn't it? Something that couldn't ever
happen.
Yet in one after another of the German-occupied countries.
the Nazis are doing their best to make these things common
place. If that will he no easy task, it's because educafion in
those countries is still doggedly fighting for its life.
In Copenhagen, German police have imprisoned the dean
of the Frederiksberg Gymnasium on suspicion of anti-Nazi
activity. He was accused of having allowed his students to
distribute illegal publications-and of having hidden both
students and publications during a Nazi raid of the school.
What Berlin papers probably did not print was the story of
how the dean locked the furious Nazis in one of the school
rooms while his pupils escaped thru a back door.
All Jugoslavs between the ages of 14 and 50 who do not
know German will be given an opportunity by the Nazis to
learn the language this winter or "take the consequences." This
invitation was couched in a proclamation issued by Nazi au
thorities which announced the commencement of a "big lan
guage campaign."
These reports are coming from nearly every occupied coun
try today. lut of all these reports, one has been outstanding.
That is the fight being carried on by Oslo University, where the
k niggle of education versus the Nazis has been a long and per
sistent one.
This fall all of the faculties of the University unani
mously passed a declaration of their intentions to resign
rather than submit to the new Quisling rules. Following
this action, eight professors and forty students were arrested,
presumably as hostages.
Some of these students are known to be in concentration
ramps, and the Germans are considering closing Oslo Uni
versity for the duration of the war since it seems to have
turned into a potato that is too hot to handle. Hut if that
should happen, Oslo will probably continue to fight.. And in
other places, the Germans are feeling the repereussions'of their
Oslo actions. Recently they found it necessary to arrest .r0
professors in Bergen who had joined sides with Oslo education.
That is a part of the story of education elsewhere. It
is a story that is being unfolded as you sit in class and wait
for the end-of-the-hour bell to ring.

Waves.)
Well, fellas, I've seen a bit of
New York. Saturday the 23rd
was Navy Day, and our regiment
marched in the parade down Fifth
Avenue from 96th to 62nd. After
the parade we had shore liberty,
but we had to be back at Hunter
(college) by 2100 (9 p. m. to you).
All for Nothing.
We went to the Service Women's
center at the Hotel Biltmore. It
was wonderful they have loads
of easy chairs, books and maga
zines, big piles of luscious choco
lates sitting around and cigarets.
In the rest room was a make-up
bar, compliments of Elizabeth Ar
den. They have creams, astrin
gent, cologne, perfume, powder,
rouge and lipsticks. Just help
yourself!
We had a steak dinner served
on a plate on a table with a white
cloth! At the station, vou see.

we eat from tin trays and heavy
handleless mugs. Napkins and ta
blecloths seem to be out for the
duration.
Salutes!
As we walked down the street
w.e had to salute about ten times
to the block. Army, navy, British,
French, Polish, and one Nether
lands officer. Most of them were
very nice . . . Smiled and said
"Good evening."
Mayor LaGuardia was in the re
viewing stand and he said the
WAVES (2,500 of 'em) were the
hit of the parade. We're allowed
to wear our white crowned hats
rather 'than our boat hats (solid
blue) and nothing would show
up a crooked line quicker, but, of
course, the line was straight. I
saw several women weeping as we
passed.
Points of Interest.
As we marched down Fifth Ave
nue, Central park was to our left
and the Empire State building
straight ahead of us. We saw St.
Patrick's cathedral, Radio City,
the Ritz-Carlton, Grand Central
station, Hotel Roosevelt, Yankee
stadium, etc, etc., in about four
hours.
Getting back to the WAVES
you'd be surprised how great an
adjustment must be made from ci
vilian life to a military life. Now
the adjustment has been made, we
all take the differences for grant
ed, but just at first some of the
girls had difficulty accepting or
ders impersonally and being regi
mented and treated as a unit ra
ther than as an individual.
I do think, however, that after
boot training we will return to a
more or less individual basis. How
ever, it won't be like civilian life
even then. The navy is more than
a career it is a way of life.
Short Liberty!
Here it is the 5th of November.
Now I've got some rubbers and no
rain. We've just got about ten
days more here. Then off to a
training school -probably Bloom
ington, Ind storekeeper's school.
However, I may be held over for
work detail. I wouldn't mind Ihnt
at all. They get shore liberty Wed
nesday evening a'nd from noon Sat
urday until 2400 Sunday. Not bad!
Now It's Saturday noon again.
We have just had regimental re
view and captain's inspection. The
inspecting party this time was
very snoopy. An anemic-looking
lieutenant was the head.
Yours,
Jackie.
