Finland's school boys and girls must speak Finnish and Swedish, the two local languages, right from the start, and on their first day in school they start learning English. Once they have mastered the for- eign tongue used in Great Britain, they pick up American in a hurry —from the talkies. In years gone by, German was re- garded as the third language, and a German today can get -around Finland with ease. The gradual spread of English throughout the world, however, con- vinced educational authorities that English is the coming tongue, and so they instituted courses in Eng- lish. In addition to classes in schools for children, the older folks are learning in night schools, clubs and offices. Even today the demand for Eng- lish courses is increasing, at the cost of interest in other foreign languages, until almost everyone in the larger cities can either speak a few essential words or carry on a conversation with an Englishman or American. Just to be sdre, however, Olympic officials plan to provide a. corps of interpreters who can cope with any|Goy. George Aiken,' Republican, won | for the treatment and reclamation Dinsdale, F.

The second fact of importance is that we have learned to gauge and direct the multiple economic forces which come into play in a public works program, so that in the future we can guide a public works program in the direction in which it will do the most good, LESSONS LEARNED The bureau of labor statistics of the U. S. Department of Labor undertook with the cooperation of the PWA to measure these quanti- ties in exact proportion. As a re- sult, that agency was able to de- termine that for every hour of employment created at the site of PWA construction, two and a half times as much work was generat- ed in regular industrial employ- ment—furnishing, creating, trans- porting and distributing supples and materials. It determined how much employment was created, directly and indirectly, in the con- struction of a public building, or a reclamation project, or a water or sewage project. It found out what types of project would “take up the slack” in the lumber industry and lumber areas, in the machinery business, the stone, clay and glass industry, or the chemical business.
