Brown, repre enting United China Relief, ap eared on the campus March 2. She poke to sociology classes about the "hinese Industrial Cooperatives. Before the war, she said, Japan >lanned to shut down 90 per cent of hina's industries. They failed be :ause of the C.I.C. The cooperat ves grew out of the huge supply of vool, cotton, pig bristles, and other aw materials piled up in the in :erior. They were organized in 1938 )y a group of Chinese, Anericans ind Britishers. Today, the Chinese nanufacture 500 different kinds of )roducts such as shoes, soap, pen :ils, and furniture. The C.I.C. has given China three great benefits, Miss Brown pointed )ut. (1) They have kept up the norale of the Chinese by-producing toods for the civilian population ind armies, thus preventing their iaving to buy from their enemy, rapan. (2) They have kept inflation own. (3) They produce textiles and nedicines which the Chinese can tot otherwise get. Miss Brown is making a tour of he southern states. Her aim is not o raise funds for Chinese relief, )ut to help in interpreting China to he American people. She has been tctive for many years in the rural :ommunities program of the Y.W. -.A. She first went to China in 1925, ifter which she lived and worked n the villages of northern, central nd southern China for eleven years. 'he has always been particularly :oncerned with the economic prob ems of rural China. In 1941, she returned to Free 'hina to see the cooperatives in op -ration. She spent five months itudying their results in eleven >rovinces. War Stamp Sale Rises Kathleen Arthur, head of the sale >f war stamps on the campus, re )orts that $194.55 worth of stamps were sold through March 3. Of this imount, $175.00 was turned in dur ng the single month of February. This averages more than $25.00 a veek. These figures compare faIv >rably with last year's.

Delta The K B3UY BI LIKE YOU NEVER University S( Release Criti Students in a University sociology class last week wrote their criti cism on the proposed marriage bill, now being considered in the General Assembly. Two of these criticisms were released for publication this week by Miss Mary Wheeler, pro fessor. In releasing them she said: Seventeen students in two dif ferent classes in the school of social work, studying child welfare and public welfare, wrote letters in class periods. If these can be used in a publicity campaign the students will feel that they have helped in small measure apply something definite as the result of their studying and learning to think through social problems of South Carolina. Letter One As students in a School of Social Work we have studied the effects of hasty marriage on permanent homes. In many cases run-away and hasty marriages lead to broken homes. In instances where children are born they are the main ones to suffer. Statistics show that children of broken homes are the greatest number of delinquents. The physical examination is a protection for future children as well as the couple. Many people P~ffSHOl OF.

No one would want to de- I liberately bring a child into the world blind or handicapped in some other serious way. Economy mind- p ed individuals realize that the cost of physical examinations to the state is overwhelmingly less than it would be for the state to take care of the children handicapped by syphillis. 4 The three day waiting period for couples who are determined to es tablish a happy home is of no con sequence to them. Only those who have not thought of the seriousness of marriage would want to rush into it. We young people are look ing to the future. We want our homes, our state and our nation to be on a firm sound basis. Letter Two I am nineteen years old and am I of marriageable age. With this in view I am particularly interested in the passage of the marriage bill. During war times, it seems that more precaution than ever should be taken before a hasty marriage is entered into. Three days is a very short period to wait when a lifes' happiness is at stake either to be enhanced or destroyed. Certainly young people want to T HE-MONTH ADEMOISELLE suit blouse.
