(Cincinnati Enquirer) * A most interesting survey was recently completed among students in the Army Specialized Training Unit now studying at the University of Cincinnati As Dr. L. A. Pechstein, director of the program, de- clared, the sults indicate that the United States will face a vital and lrt‘m(‘nd(nhh increased problem in higher education as soon as the war is over. Of the 600 men who expressed themselves in the survey, 82 per cent said they expected to take some sort of college work when peace returns. Since the y of Cincinnati can be considered as repre- ntative of colleg all over the country, the results here probably are a true reflection of the hopes of more than 140,000 specialized training students now studying in various institutions of learning. “The men questioned in the survey come from all of the states in the Union.

" That ended the matter LITTLE BUSI) S Inside fact ment of Maury of the vitallly CHAMPION about the appoint- Maverick as head important Smaller War Plants Corporation of WPB was that White House advisers favored someone else, and it was only the conservative business men and Republicans inside the War Preduction Board who put Maver- ick across. This .will be news to a lot of peo- ple in Texas and Congress who for years viewed Maverick as a wild, lone steer. In.Congress, he was a tough, hard-hitting New Dealer, introduced the President’s Supreme Court bill and fought for all FDR's reforms. As Mayor of San An- tonio, he cleaned up the slums and rode rough-shod over so/many poli- ticians that, at the next election they kicked him out ‘Then he head the the War people a Government Division of Production Board. Many viewed Maury as a lame- duck Congressman occupying a cushy spot on the public payroll. But they didn't know Maverick. He has done one of the outstanding jobs inside the WPB, has won the confidence and respect of big shot businessmen who, politically differ with him completely. When it came to appointing a new head of the Smaller War Plants Corporation, White House advisers wanted Morris Cocke, former Rural Electrification ~ Administrator, an excellent man. The Senate Small Business Committee, staunch cham- pions of little business, also want- ed Cooke and put up a long fight against Maverick BIG BUSINESS STANDS PAT Donald Nelson and WPB championed Maverick. The showdown came at a secret meeting of the Senate Small Business Com- | mittee. “Maury Maverick is a friend of little business and I have no doubts that he would do a good job,” ar- gued Senator Murray of Montana “But I'm convinced that Cooke | would do a better job, because of | his greater all-around experience.” “If I wanted to play partisan politics, I'd be for the appointment of Maverick,” put in GOP Senator Kenneth S. Wherry of Nebraska.' “From a political standpoint, it would be one of the worst things that could happen to the Democrat- ic party in an election year to put the fate of little business in the of resolution Government to cover mineral location and to exact royalties from control of the enterprise of pros- mineral resources of this country mber further protests the reported policy in protesting all applica- asonable demonstration of mineral of full development claims with respect hands of erick back Nelson. a lot since came to Washington to! college, 77 per cent expressed a desire to continue with their education when they get out of uniform. The men who had been in college before entering the service voted 89 per cent in their hope that they could return again to their schools. cent of the trainees who now hold college degrees hope | to take advance courses when the war is over. If this survey represents a true cr ection of | men of similar condition throughout the armed sery ices, there will be a tremendous increase in ‘college and university enrollments as soon as the Arm; Navy and Marines begin mustering out. That this demand for education must be met goes without saying. America always has prided herself on offering | educational advantages to all youths with enough ambition and energy to seek them. Conditions after the war, however, will be much | different than they have been before. What the financial conditions of schools will be no one now can tell. There probably will be a deficiency trained professors and instructors, due to the demands | and the tolls of war. And the increased number | of applying students will add much to the problem Educators must begin planning now for the years ahead, with full realization of the various hurdles they must cross if they are to continué in the Amer- ican tradition of making higher learning easily available to all who seek it pink like Mav- Commerce has protesting leasing lands “to and those content notices General a century past ry and production regions requiring of the prop- to a parlor expariRitga (Copyright, 1944, by Feature Syndicate, D LAST RITES FOR DAVID MORGAN AT MEMORIAL CHURCH United Inc.) You're mistaken, Senator,” shot “Maury has changed he rved in Congress. He used to be a politician, but he's settled down since he became head of the WPB's Government Division. Judging by his record there and my own association with him, I'm con- vinced we couldn’t get a better man to run the Smaller War Plants Cor- poration.” Only one member of the com-| mittee sided with Nelson—Senator Tom Stewart of Tennessee. Stew- art almost brought the house down by declaring gruffly: “What if Maverick is politician? We've already had two business men in this job and they fell flat. I'm in favor of trying a politician.” Funeral services for David Mor- | | Ban, Native school teacher, who | passed away recently, will be held tomorrow afternoon at 2 o'clock at the Memorial Presbyterian Church.
