EDUCATION-BOOM AND 'BUST? There's a boom on in education, and it's setting a fast pace for college students all over the country. Many edu cators have a glint in their eyes like crafty land speculators. They're thinking about new buildings, bigger departments, and expanded faculties. However, there's a trend in the new enrollments that suggests it's time to say "who" and let's take a look around. In many colleges more non-veteran students are enrolling this winter. Optimists have assumed that the present record en rollments are indicative of a long-time trend. The applica tions of five million veterans for benefits to be invested in higher education have been approved by the Veterans Administration. This backlog of potential students plus increased enrollments of non-veterans provides the basis for this anticipatory rubbing together of the palms. How ever, thousands of these prospective students may never shove an enrollment card over a registrar's desk or stand in a registration line. Veteran students who have not yet taken advantage of their eligibility entitlements are working at various jobs. They'll think hard before giving them up. Jobs are getting scarcer and veterans are getting older. A man 25 years old, and that's the average for veterans, is likely to be reluctant about jumping into four years of college work. At that age he is probably thinking about marriage, a home, and a steady income. That leaves the non-veterans to bolster enrollment statistics. The years 1930-1936 were a period of exceednigly low birth rates. Children born during that time are now the ones who are entering the nation's colleges and universities. They will account for a large part of our college population for the next five or six years. Thus there will probably be fewer new students entering school than in the pre-war boom year of 1929. That there will be a continued high enrollment in schools at the college level is not questioned. But plans based on boom time conditions must be discarded when a recession begins. It is better to proceed with the prospect of a setback in mind. Booms do burst. The one in educa tion probably will. (University Daily Kansan, Lawrence).

"The American economy at home is home base for this whole struggle for freedom," Stassen averred, and specified that in or der to maintain our free economy we must first hold down specula tion and adjust labor laws. Stassen said he thought the Taft-Hartley labor law a good law but suggested three amendments which he said would help make it the basis of future good labor management relationships. They are: a restriction of the union shop vote; freedom of union newspa pers to print what they wish; and a requirement that no labor lead er be forced to sign a communist affadavit unless he has been first accused of being a communist. "We must stop building up the military potential of the Russian area, the presidential hopeful as serted. To make his point, he cited the fact that in 1947 we shipped more equipment to Rus sia than to England and France combined. Since Russia has cho sen to put herself behind a cur tain, Stassen denounced sending them any material that could be used in any future war. The ex-governor urged that the U. S. invite an amending conven tion of the UN ,to demand, among other things, development of an international police force and an end to the veto power. "This nation must exercise lead ership in world affairs," he con cluded, "... and on that basis I feel sure there is ground for freedom without the tragedy of a third world war." Stassen's appearance at the uni versity marked the third of his four-speech campaign tour in Lincoln Thursday. He spoke also at Nebraska Wesleyan, Union col lege and Huskerville. Dewey . . . (Continued from Page 1) "a great moral offensive" to pre serve the peace. "We should," he explained, "begin to fight the evil propaganda of communism with the magnificent and thrilling story of human freedom." Reiterating his denunciation of the present administration, Dewey declared tha,t it has "wobbled and bungled us into a situation where everyone fears a war." He concluded his address with a plea to republicans of this state to "turn out in overwhelming numbers and instruct our national Tcachiii Has Much to Offer Savs Morton College or university teaching has as much or more to offer than any other profession, Dr. W. H. S. Morton of Teachers college told the high school seniors attending the "Teachers and Tomorrow Con ference" Thursday night. The 7C students at the confer ence, described as future leaders of Nebraska and possible future teachers, are shown all phases of education at the four day meeting which ends Saturday morning. "College or university, teaching gives you a choice between re search and classroom teaching, or a combination of both. , ,You deal with adult students and contacts with co-workers are, stimulating. College teaching offers some in dependence and personal freedom which other professions may lack, Dr. Morton said. Dr. Royce Knapp of the univer sity presided and three other edu cators spoke on the subject, "Why Teach." The banquet was spon sored by Delta Kappa Gamma and Phi Delta Kappa, honorary professional teaching societies for women and men, respectively. administration to start working for peace now. As a nation we can meet the challenge of our time." Governor Dewey is the third of three aspirants for the republican presidential nomination to speak in Nebraska within the past three days.
