Last week TIME surveyed 100 typical weeklies and bi-weeklies in 30 States and found that: 1) Most of them had good business in 1938 and the early part of 1939; 2) boiler-plate and corn-cure ads are disappearing; 3) their news is ably written but editorials are either purely boosterish, overly timid or entirely lacking; 4) many a muted Walter Winchell is doing a bangup job of columning for a few hundred neighbors.

To merit this praise, how can the Undergraduate Faculty after half a year of existence show that preconditioning is the first step towards a fundamental cure? This question would be difficult to answer five years from now and impossible today. The long-range results of education cannot be measured in statistical units...
