One makes available portions of a 35-million-dollar emergency housing ap- propriation to provide additional classrooms and lab- oratories as well as living quarters for veterans. The other empowers the State Department of Education to make up operaiing deficits incurred by colleges and universities in the education of veterans. This liberal action resulted frcm a conference of educators called by Governor Dewey to consider the problem of accom- medating veterans. It is a constructive local applica- tion of what Reconversion Director Synder's Inter- agency Committee on Veterans' Affairs has been set up to do nationally. Estimates place college enrollment next fall at 25 per cent above the prewar high. The log-jam of applications has given rise to the complaint that some colleges have adopted a questionable policy of “making it tough” veterans in order to rid themselves of | the excess and make way for new high school grad- | uates. This may be true in some cases; and, of course, it is indefensible. All students should have an equal[ chance. At the same time, there probably are a good[ many veterans attracted by educational provisions of | the GI Bill of Rights who are not qualified and do not belong in college. And it is true that if colleges gave | over all their facilities to veterans, there would be none for persons graduating from high school, or even for servicemen discharged late. The essential problem for educatjonal institutions has been to strike a balance so that the interests of all their clientele may be served with the limited expansion facilities at hand. The failure of Congress to supplement the GI bill with concrete provisions to accommodate veterans has placed the burden on individual schools Hampered by personnel shortages as well as inadequate facilities, | should play The Washingfon how Merry-Go-Round P | elections as to whi . (Continued from Page One) boiling put a bombshell under Lewis, hear- host vreials, | the British and Russians, are now mad, and s 'agreed to New York as the tem- !many will be unable to meet the demands unless there is outside aid; and it is obvious that the expansion problem must be tackled immediately to mitigate the disedvantages of education under pressure. New York has pointed the solution for at least part of the difficulty. Fortunately, some other States are in an advantageous position to help their colleges and uni- versities because of wartime tax surpluses. Only through such help can veterans be assured of a fair | ance to benefit from the education Congress has provided them President-Elect Roxas (New York Times) | One of the contributory causes fo failure of the Filipinos to move more rapidly toward rehabilitation | of their i 1ds was the necessity for holding national | ctions. Their last previous election was held on Nov. 1941, twenty-seven days before the Japanese struck, hen the late Manuel Quezon was elected President of the Commonwealth for a second term. The war ! made impossible an election last year, when it wa scheduled. Sergio Osmena, who was elected Vice- President in 1941, continued in the office he had assumed in exile when Quezon died. the most important efection the Fili- Manuel Roxas—who apparently has been elected over Osmena by a considerable ma- jority—will serve less than a month as President of the Commonwealth; on July 4 he will become President | of the Philippine Republic. For most of his four-year | term, therefore, President Roxas will be guiding a new, independent nation through its critical years. The war | has compounded the difficuities that might have been expected normally. It will require wisdom of the first order to guide the Philippine Republic safely lhroughl its first months and years. 1 w This may t President-elect Roxas’ first public statement on his aims and the principles that will govern his action gives hope that this wisdom will be exercised. He denies vigorously the fascist leanings attributed to him | in election specches, promises that rehabilitation will | be his first aim, and pleads for full cooperation by | the United States in restoring the Philippines to at least a semblance of their pre-war state. He meets | frankly the charge of collaboration made against him. Those charges, he said, “have been completely and | unequivocally repudiated by the Filipino people who | were here and in the best position to know the sig- nificance of my actions [as a member of the Laurel Government under Japanese cccupation].” If, as has | been rumored, one of the reasons for the slowness of cur own Congress in passing the Bell Trade Bill and the Tydings Rehabilitation Bill was distrust of Roxas’ credentials as a loyalist, then the vote—in which an estimated 70 to 80 per cent of the Filipinos participated —could be construed as a repudiation of that attitude too. The enactment of the Bell and Tydings bills will { not relieve the United States of further responsibility. The unscheduled visit to Manila of former President Hoover, cn his world food-and-famine survey, has brought to prominence a problem in the Philippines that has received ligle publicity—the threat of | famine there unless aid is given. In the fever of elec- | tioneering, and anxiety over the slowness of our Con- gress in enacting relief bills, the information that the Filipines’ stocks of rice and other cereals are alarm- ingly low was not made public. To the many other problems that confront the Roxas Adm tion as it prepares to take office a month hence is added, therefore, that of hunger. It is one that must be solved. We must be as vitally con- cerned as is the President-elect with the future well- being of the Filipinos. They sacrificed blood and their health as a nation for us. We should welcome an op- portunity to repay part of the debt with money and food and sympathetic understanding. The great majority of the American people, we believe, earnestly desire to do just that. 1 | | | fortable home for the world or- ganization, Also, a powerful drive has been resumed to move the United Na-| tions back to San Francisco where | it was born—and where it was, treated royally. { Note—Even Britain’s Delegate Sir | ether or not they to the United i especially rry they ever | ment ; perous ings could be started overnight. | The two companies applying for the pipe lines are: (1) Trans-Con- tinental which cffers $40,000,000 and (2) the Big Inch Gas Com- pany, which also offers 40 million, and was organized by Oscar Cox, former Assistant Solicitor General of the Justice Department.
