They may not regard the prospe¢t with unmixed joy, and yet the experience of military service is not without compensations. The others will face unusually good fortunes as they look for. jobs. In some areas there are al- ready more jobs than workers, and this situation is expected to spread. The grad- uate may be able to pick the kind of work he wants instead of looking for anything he can get. Graduating classes have faced a se- rjous employment problem in many other years. Last year, in a time of relative pros- perity, graduates were more numerous than jobs. This was due in part to the ‘fact that many veterans who had returned | to school after the war were completing their education. At the end of the war a serious shortage of engineers and techni- cians existed and many of the veterans pursued these studies in the hope of ready employment on graduation. Many of these were forced to accept other types of em- ployment. “Tf some plan to utilize fully the new pédple who enter the labor market every year could be devised it would benefit kath, the employer and the potential em- ployee, It would help to prevent a recur- rence ‘of the situation which existed dur- ing the depression when men with college degrees were unable to use their skills and were lucky to get any jobs at all. Perhaps industrial leaders and educators could help to devise such a plan. WHY NOT STUDY PERU? Brain surgery was performed by the Peruvian Indians two thousand years ago, says Dr. Francisco Grana of the Universi- ty of Lima, Peru. He told the International College of Surgeons in Florence that he had examined two hundred skulls and found-excellent work done, with every indication that the methods caused only per cent of deaths in these delicate operations. Brain surge does no better than—maintain that su 1 rate today. _.By. comparison with the study of ancient Greek and Roman ci zations, and to only a slightly. less extent | those of Babylon and Egypt, little has been ‘ done: with the study of the early Amerj gan people: Yet their achievements, especially in Mexico and Peru, decidedly deserve to he evamined carefully. It would not be“ bad idea to include in our ‘school, courses of study something on the ancient civilteas tions of the New World.

This reliéves the minds of those Gibraltarians who believe that the apes | came with the British, and that the de- parture of one will be followed by the go- | ing of the other. During this century the apes began to dwindle, causing the Brit- ish, perhaps mindful of “the value of the animals as a tourist iction;-to appoint Gibraltar still have military value? Prof. Richard A, Peston of the Royal Military | the | College of Canada, in an article in United States Naval Institute Proceedings, is sure that it does. In World War II, when | the Germans and Italians sueceeded in dominating the Mediterranean, Gibraltar was the only foothold held by the British on the Continent of Europe. It was also a central point for planes leaving to defend the Suez Canal, or bound to India, the Far | East,.Africa and Australasia. Later it be- | came the base for the pursuit planes which | covered the Allied landings in North Afri- ] ea. Without Gibraltar, the whole strategy of attack in Europe must have been quite | different and much harder. Fran¢o of Spain still complains about the British ownership of Gibraltar, there- | by giving the Spaniards something to think about besides the failures of his government. But Churchill’s remark ap- parently still holds, that as long as Britain | is undefeated in war, she will not give up Gibraltar; whereas if she lost a major war, neither Gibraltar nor anything else would make any difference. The human race will be greatly im- | proved when men attend to the business | of improving themselves. GOVERNMENT HOARDING President Truman has ordered de- fense and mobilization officials to draw up a plan to prevent thé hoarding of man- power and materials during the prepared- ness program. While it is only proper that defense and mobilization agencies should get the manpower and ifiaterials they need to accomplish their miission, some curb on just how much these groups can draw- from the national pool seems wise. It is only natural that men doing a particular job in a vital position should sometimes lose sight of the fact that there are other important tasks which need to be done and that men and materials are needed to do them. In the earnest desire of these people to do well the job they are assigned, they will sometimes resort to or- dering a surplus of men and goods so that the machinery they set in motion will never have to be stopped by shortages. Pehaps a central control which would serve to curb unreasgnable requests and would expedite the ding of men, and materials to where they were needed most at the moment would@> help to solve the problem. The job aking ourselves strong and keeping |‘9lrselves that way may take many yeargp Jt is essential that manufacture of civilian goods be interfer- ed with as little as possible. Debates would be more profitable if the participants were more interested in the truth than the decision of the judges. WOULD RUSSIA COME TO CHINA’S AID?
