Instead of spending $3,000,000 to $5,000,000 a year for several years, and having nothing to show for it when the emergency is over, the State should spend this money helping es- tablished, accredited universities and eolleges increase their facilities by adding new buildings, purchasing equipment and enlarging their fac- ulties. This would result in a perma- ment increase in the State's educa- tional plant and facilities, which is meeded, and would meet the veterans' problem in a more satisfactory man- ner than the expedient of putting all the \rejectees\ together in a make- shift institution in an abandoned cantonment. There are 56 senior colleges and universities in New York State which in the school year 1944-45 had a to- tal enrollment of 116,811. As college enrollments were generally down during the war, the normal enroll- ment of these institutions is much greater. It is apparent that they have tremendous facilities to be able to accommodate 115,000 to 150,000 students, and that a nominal expendi- ture would enable them to accommo- date at least 10 per cent more, or at least 12,000 it is proposed to send to an improvised junior college.

These 11 State teachers colleges and the six tech- nical institutes are capable of giving in- struction to another 10,000 students, as all are in addition to the 56 senior col- leges and universities we have listed. With such a magnificent educational set- up, it impresses us as absurd for New York State to spend millions on a temporary col- lege that will have no atmosphere or tra- ditions to inspire its students. 'The money should be spent expanding the 100 odd schools that are already 'going concerns. It is true some of them are owned by re- ligious denominations and many are pri- vately endowed, controlled by self-perpetu- ating boards. But all of them, where their scholastic standards are accredited by the proper authorities, are serving the youth of this State. 'They constitute our higher educational system. They can do a better job than an improvised mass college, and anything that is done for them should com- bine both the advantage of meeting the current emergency for Veterans and per- manently: expanding the State's high edu- cational system. Girl Scout Fellowship THE 34th Birthday of Girl Scouting finds the organization in Nassau County in fine health and full of zest for the future. The membership figure is 10,000; the record of achievement in the past year is gratify- ing; and plans for post-war action are timely and far-sdeing. Birthdays are likely occasions for sum- ming up. as well as 'for locking ahead. During its 34th year, Girl Scouting wound up wartime services which included out- standing work in salvage, cooperation with U. S. O., Red Cross, and many other agencies; two clothing collections, the Community Canning Program, the Victory Collection of Canned Foods, the Victory Garden program, Farm Aid, the 7th War Loan, and the Victory War Loan and count- less other activities of intrinsic worth and values: At' the same time Girl Scouting began to plan for the post-war years, se- lecting \Citizenship in Action\ as its theme, The 35th year, which begins today, is full of opportunities and challenges. Gir. Scoutirig-in' Nassau County began in 1924 with approximately seven troops. Scout- ing in those days was modest in compari- sou to the well run organization of vol- unteer adults and Scouts which exists to- day. The 10,000-Girl Scouts of all races, colors, and creeds meet under the spon- sorship of many groups and organizations. Troops are sponsored by churches of all denominations, service clubs, the American Legion, P. T. A.sand similar groups, There is no financial drive in connec- tion with the anniversary, but funds which the Girl Scouts have raised through their various efforts, such as the sale of Girl Scout cookies, will go into the World Fel- lowship Fund, a memorial to Juliette Low of Savannah, Ga,, who founded the organi- zation in 1912, This fund is to be used in providing Girl Scouts and other chil- dren in the war-torn countries with some of the small comforts and luxuries which American Girl Scouts and youngsters have never lacked. + Mrs. Henry Brandenburger RS, HENRY BRANDENBURGER, who was best remembered in the Village of Freeport as Mrs. Adoiph Levy, mother of George Morton and David Levy, was one who believed in sharing her blessings with others. Generosity was one of the dominant traits of her character. When a young married woman she helped her husband establish a business. When it reached a flourishing condition she devoted her time to her home and family. She was ambitious to see her children acquire good educations and make their mark in the world. In this respect her devotion was rewarded by seeing one son become a dis- tinguished attorney, the other carry on his father's business and her daughter happily married. When her own family had grown up Mrs. Brandenburger was always inter- ested in helping others improve their posi- tion. Civic and charitable appeals to im- prove the community or give aid to a worthy cause always met an instant re- sponse from her. Except for the final years of her. life when she lived with her daughter in Miami, Mrs. Brandenburger has been a resident of Freeport for nearly 53 years, She saw it grow from a tiny, village of old Queens County to one of the largest communities of Nassau County. Many years ggo, as one the pioneer Jewish residents of Freeport, was instrumental in helping to estab- of the village whose interest and influence were always on the side of building a bet- ter community and whose contributions over more than half a century were con- structive and substantial. NeWs Behind The News By Paul Mallon Its Importance WASHINGTON, March 11, him. the Democrats of double the Mr. Pauley denied. ple, such a party from Europe. & & & This new depth in confusions was only about a foot lower than the evi- dence for and against Mr. Pauley built up by PM and championed by the Ickes-Pepper leadership to the utter demoralization of the record. Now I do not propose to take apart and analyze the drops of a maelstrom, but behind these confusions le some gravely important discernible facts, rooted in simple common sense: Fact one is thejob of undersecretary of navy is practically uential. It is the bottom .rung of the political ladder usually given to bright young men of promise, not yet dry behind their political ears. Franklin Roose- velt's Washington start was made there and also that of young Teddy Roosevelt, the son, who occupied the post entirely ignorant of his superiors' connection with the teapot and Elk Hills oil scandals. The navy can get along without Pauley and probably permanently without an under-secre- tary, ms the admirals run the depart- ment, always have and probably al- ways will. Also the job the ofl com- panies need, if they want what Mr. Ickes suspected, is the cabinet post of mavy and probably also the senate which has a habit of looking into these things. # U # This would lead any rea- sonable analyst to the firm conviction that the real essence of the struggle was for control of the Democratic party-or the wielding qt power over it and in it. Know- ing the origin of the fight in the PM-Ickes- Pepper supra-party (backed further only by C. I. O. as far as I have been able to discern), I was unable to be confused by the developments. This clan thought they caught Mr. Truman in a bad mistake, moved in on him in the senate with their customary pressures and got more back- ing from the Democrats than I had sus- pected, and from the Republicans who appeared rather pleeful at the opportunity to let the confusers confuse 'any and all Democrats. The only important possibility is the final result of this basic struggle in which the Pauley case is but an amusing incident.

N criticism of the American owners of small homes, mansions, farms, estates, village stores and other property who are unwilling to surrender their lawful pos- sessions to the U, N. O., Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt writes that if she had been in & like situation, \no personal considera- tion\ would have outweighed the = bility of helping to establish the United Nations. \This organization may save our coun- try and others from the kind of human misery which another war must inevit- ably bring,\ she added, \and for that end no sacrifice is too great.\ If my understanding of her late hus- band's will is correct, Mrs. Roosevelt's position here is purely academic for I believe he left her no owner's interest in the ancestral real estate at Hyde Park. Furthermore, the record shows no indica- tion that the president or his family ever made any sactifice of wealth in the inter» est of the American or the peoples of the world but, on the contrary, prospered enormously, some of them through the most brazen exploitation of the presidency and political influence, ever since the be- finnénl of Mr. Roosevelt's war on want 1933. L ® U Has Good Earning Power Mrs. Roosevelt, herself, is no amateur in her service to the organization which \may save our country and others from the kind of misery which another war must inevitably bring.\ The job she holds pays at the rate of $12,000 a year plus $25 a day for expenses. This income, entirely aside from her proposed pension of $5,000 as a president's widow, Is much greater than the income of most of the families in the Westchester-Green- wich area who would be dispossessed. Since her return from Europe, Mrs. Roose- velt has been on tour again, lectures under professional management. Her old fee, in the role of first lady, in several instances, was reported to be $1,000 per ow. - With her box-office power up again by reason of her new publicity, the promoters have been 'able to charge a $2.40 top even in small cities and she has played to excellent business. Altogether, then, far from serving the United Nations to work toward at a sacrifice, Mrs. Roosevelt is still pur- rofit motive even in her suing the old world the hums misery that Churchill offers, an alliance| which she foresees as a possible alterna- against Russia. If he had not said so in plain words, that fact would still have been perfectly clear. Well, Russia is causing us plenty of concern; has become one of our tive to the success of the U. N. O.
