...plan, as outlined so far by University authorities, sufficiently clear to render lengthy discussion here unnecessary. Briefly it considers the present social organization of Harvard College, allowing as it does every student unlimited range and absolute freedom to choose and change his associates, greatly preferable to any forced melting pot scheme such as that envisaged by the House Plan. It has been unable to discover, more-over, educational advantages of the new arrangement which might offset this loss in social flexibility. Finally the CRIMSON regrets the philanthropy which, blind to the notorious inadequacy of tutorial staffs, professorial salaries, and even...
Vice President Queeney described the "generator" thus: "It consists of an aluminum pot in which is set a nest of stationary thin-curved plates radiating from a central core. The pot is heated by the exhaust from the engine. The fuel is drawn from a standard carburetor through the inside of the pot over the surface of the warm plates, where it is converted into a dry gas and there it passes through the intake manifold into the cylinders...
...more important question of what intellectual end such a melting pot will serve still remains to be answered.

Hitherto the notorious bickering of French politicians has hamstrung many important measures of a purely economic sort. According to M. Dosch-Fleurot, the proposed...
...positive value in get-togethers of this type is accepted rather more restrainedly now than it was just after the war, during the blanket enthusiasm for every sort of co-operation from the Farmers' Milk Exchange to the Melting Pot. Certainly there is pleasure and prestige to be had through such associations as the National Student Federation; the profit derived therefrom must be a general and genial entity. Without executive power, which no one desires to grant it, the recommendations of the organization through its committees remain merely advisory and the whole advantage of the discussions boils down...
