British Educator
Says U. S. Getting
Scientific Brains
BIRMINGHAM. England -A
leading British educator says this
country is losing its best scientific
brains to the United States He
lists higher salaries and better
opportunities as the main attrac-
tions.
Lord Chorley, general secretary
of the Assn, of University Teach-
ers, told the association's Central
Council:
“A very serious drain ig being
made on our scientific manpower
by the United States.”
There has been some talk that
British science students accept
American offers to evade the two-
year military service here.
Lord Chorley denied this, but
the government failed to grant
"permanent deferment of national
service to graduates and those
who are actively employed in the
field of science and technology
whether in teaching, in research
or in industry.”

and Penn has seen quite a few
crops harvested. “The baline was
kindo' forced as t‛e stalks did not
get sufficiently himh for combin-

excellent stock feed and in years
back most of oats were out up in

However, at the same time, the right of self-govern-
ing Americans to obtain information carries with it
an obligation to use that knowledge constructively.
What a man does with information he acquires through
his right to know is a measure both of his individual
intelligence and his maturity.
He is free to disregard the information he receives,
but if he does, he is endangering the American way
of life. Just as a newspaper has an obligation to inform
honestly, the public at the same time has the obliga-
tion to read accurately and to make an honest search
for facts.

Dr. John Stockton, director of ,
the University of Texas Business
Research Bureau, said an analysis
of the factors which make up the ,
business index showed a “general
slowing down in several sectors of
the economy.”
While Stockton's monthly report
reflected concern about the im- '
mediate downward trend, it also
asserted cautious hope that indus-
trial expansion will keep Texas
booming.
The business research director
said in a speech Friday he con.
sidered the current downturn in
the nation's economy only a tem-
porary dip and predicted anotner
wave of expansion would bring an
upturn.
He said the present decline is a
“minor cyclical adjustment that
just has to be lived through.”
Stockton placed strong reliance
on the steadying effect of indus-
trial expansion.
- This factor, he said, “continues
to be the strongest feature of busi-
ness at the present time."

It all reminds us of those ads in the papers and in
the domestic arts magazines showing the plan of a
house and proclaiming in the largest type, “This
house was planned by a woman.”
Yeah. You can tell that by looking at it. There's no
place in the whole layout for a man. You will look in
vain to find a corner for his desk, a tiny spot for his
favorite books, to say nothing of even an obscure, un-
dersized closet into which he can squeeze golf clubs
or similar impedimenta
There are all aorta of places for a woman to do her
work — kitchen, sewing room, flower potting shed,
laundry and utility room, a kitchen office, a special
pla for every task.
Yet, though she expects her handyman to do any
household repair job from mending a light cord to
moving a window from one wall to another, do you
think there is a place in this house where he can keep
even a screwdriver? Not in a woman-planned house.
A work bench with a vise? Who—that is among
I ! women—ever heard of such a thing? Why does he need
3 a vise to hold the door she wants him to refinish?
There's not even an attic to which he can flee for
solitary meditation when his superfluity becomes too
painful to be borne.
