18 gruun SOUGHT HERE TOFINANCE STuDY University Women - Launch| Drive to Raise Money for Scholarships. While it may be controversial to hold || that athletic prowess is valued more || highly than scholastic attainments, a © comparison of figures for the awards [ of the Nobel prizes and those of the Olympic games show the scholarly achievements of the United States lag far behind its athletic record. This is a morsel for thought con- | tained in a bulletin issued by the American _Association of University > Women, which is raising a $1.000,000 | fellowship fund t¢ endow research fel- lowships for women. Nearly $400,000 | of the total has been subscribed and | the Washington branch of the associa- | tion now is making a drive for a sub- | stantial cortribution. Apropos of the rivalry between American athletes and Americant scholars, the bulletin points out that the United States produces one outstand- | ing scientist to every 28,000,000 of | population, while in Holland, for ex ample, there is one to every 1,000,000 people. Opportunity Held Lacking. Lack of opportunity, rather than lack of ability, is responsible for this state | of affairs, the association's bulletin holds. Research work requires leisure for intensive study, freedom from eco- nomic worry and the opportunity for contact with the best teachers and the best sources of material available in the particular branch of study which is be- ing undertaken. Many who are intel- lecbunllv fitted to add to the store of | the world’s knowledge and to upl\aldl the banner of American scholarship, the bulletin points out, have not the means to carry on the work unassisted. A report recently issued by Smith College shows that there are only 503 memberships available in the whole country, of which 256 carry a stipend of $500 or less, while only 82 have an en- dowment of $1,000 or more. Most of these fellowships are awarded to men. A few are open to men and women, it : was shown, and a few are granted only to_women. The American Association of Uni- versity Women administers 12 of these | scholarships, a number held wholly in- adequate to meet the demand. There | were 61 applicants for one of these fel- | lowships last year and the number nx, qualified women who for lack of funds | have had to be denied opportunities for | further study and research is esti- mated to run into the hundreds. | Set $1,200 as Income. In the belief that this state of af- fairs would be remedied if the facts ‘were known to the public, the associ- ation inaugurated its $1,000,000 Fel- lowship fund, with the intention of en- dowing a number of fellowships, each carrying an income of $1,200 or more. | In the National Capital, the Wash- | ; ington branch is making every effirt| .w arouse the public to the need of of- % fering encouragement to deserving | by women who have given evidence of sessing the necessary mental quali- \cs for research and creative work. : = Mrs, Henry Grattan Doyle, secretary of < the club, and Mrs. Philip Sydney Smith, # both of whom are members of the ~ Board of Education, are sponsoring *he * fellowship appeal.

DIRE POVERTY FACES JOBLESS COAL MINERS | London Charitable Organizations Plan Christmas Relief for Villages in Wales. By the Associated Press. LONDON, December 1.—Tales of dire poverty, coming from the coal districts of South Wales, where miners have been out of work for months, have stimulated efforts to relieve the dis- | tress end to give the families of the men some semblance of a Christmas. Reports from the mining districts have told of hundreds of villages in which women and children were poorly clad and generally underfed. The lord mayor of London, who start- ed a relief fund which reached $575,000, has called a conference of lord mayors and mayors to consider additional meas- ures. Christmas baskets are the object of a “hamper fund” which has been started a London newspaper. *| elected vice | versity was elected president of Oxford | Pellowship, Garrett Institute, secretary-treasurer.
