...been thrown into discard. While these changes, may seem superficial to our older colleagues, they are significant in that they place responsibility directly on the student. In an age when older men consider jobs for the young college graduate only a myth, it is certainly wise to equip him at least with independence and initiative so that he can sail before the wind on this sea of confusion with his spinnaker...
Five acres of soil with each house will enable Homesteaders to raise their own food, sell a surplus. For house & garden they will pay the Government $15-$20 a month for 20 years, payments to begin two years after occupancy. To construct and equip a factory in Reedsville to make furniture and other things for the Post Office Department $525,000 of PWA funds were allotted last October by Secretary Ickes. Construction of the building will provide some 2.000 man-months of labor for Homesteaders, and on completion the plant will give permanent employment to some 150.* Eventually the Government...
Looking further ahead, it is important that these changes be extended to include the Freshmen. For the present, it would be ridiculous to propose such a regime for them because their secondary school education does not equip them for such a burden.

This is not only wrong: it is a positive hindrance...
...from this vantage point that he was able to watch the sweep of events that led to the France-Prussian War. Alfred Krupp saw it coming, too. He like Schneider, was capable of an internationalism far above the confines of narrow patriotism and was anxious to equip Napoleon Ill's armies with his own cannon a suggestion not entirely without its legic or, even, its sportsmanship, for Krupp had borrowed in Paris (from the same banking house of Setlliere as had set Engene Schneider up in business) and the money with which he made the guns that late, humbled France...
...garden projects to keep the starving alive in semi-rural communities, have no more ardent supporter than Anna Eleanor Roosevelt Roosevelt. One of her favorites is for jobless miners at Reedsville, W. Va. Part of the Reedsville project is erection of a factory to make furniture and post-office equipment. Secretary Ickes enthusiastically allocated $525,000 of PWA funds to build and equip a factory to employ 125 men. To provide the factory with work, a provision was popped into the regular Post Office Appropriation bill to operate the factory and take over its output. Last week the House...
