New Perspective Of Europe Held By Dr.E. Jackson Baur
A new perspective of Europe is now held by Dr. E. Jackson Baur, assistant professor of sociology, who recently returned from a six weeks stay at the Midwestern seminar in Denmark. Dr. Baur said in an interview that his perspective has changed considerably because the people of Europe and their problems are so much like our own.
Dr. Baur described the conditions on northern Europe, particularly those in Denmark and England, remarking that the housing situation there is more serious than ours. Building is handled through non-profit societies and organizations, operating on government loans. There is little private building and all of it is under local control.
In both England and Denmark local governments may buy land and then resell or lease the land for building projects. But control of the type of building to be done is retained by the city. In equipped a builder is taxed according to the type and size of building he plans. These restrictions cause a considerable decline in speculation, Dr. Baur explained.
In Denmark and England every city must prepare a town plan, this being done through public meetings. If the city ministry accepts this plan, it becomes a building ordinance which controls all future projects.
In Denmark regional planning on a county basis has been set up. Cities find they must coordinate with counties in their growth, Dr. Baur commented.
"Socialism exists in Denmark trictly on a 'grass roots' basis, and governmental control is in local lands. The Danes don't think of their country as being socialistic and they realize the need for democratic practices and control."
Commenting on Danish politics, he said that "The Social Democrat arty has been in control for the last 15 years but is very conservative in nature and is certainly not 'lefish'.
Denmark has had socialized medicine since 1933. However, like other governmental policies, it is carried out locally. The basis of socialized medicine is local societies managed by the people. It is financed less than 20 per cent by the government and 20 per cent by municipalities. The balance comes from the dues of members.
Railroads are under federal con-rol, though generally business is in private hands. Co-operatives are numerous in Denmark, Dr. Baun aid.
Schools are different form ours, being much more specialized, separate, and distinct. Instead of instituting a new course for a sub-credit they make a new school for The universities emphasize professional training and might be placed in a category somewhere between our graduate schools and upper divisions, he added. Dr. Baur said there should be more seminars of this type, leading to more thought on an international axis rather than on a provincial axis.

Autoclave To Kill Laboratory Germs
A bulk autoclave, costing more than $7,000 and weighing more than 2,400 pounds, is being installed in the bacteriology laboratory in Snow hall. The new autoclave will wash and sterilize all the dishes used by bacteriology students.
The health of the students and dish washers will no longer be endangered by dishes containing dangerous bacteria, said Dr. E. L. Treece, associate professor of bacteriology. Trays containing the dirty dishes will be set on a cart which rolls into the autoclave thus eliminating the necessity of anyone touching the dishes. The high pressure heat sterilizer is similar to those used in many hospitals for sterilization, Dr. Treece said.
"The autoclave will be one of the last steps in completing the remodeling of the bacteriology laboratory, which has been in progress since summer," Dr. Trecee said. Stainless steel sinks have, been ordered for the laboratory.
Representatives of the company that manufactured the autoclave will arrive today to oversee the installation. Local workmen will do the work of installing the machine.
Remodeling during the summer included a water and acid-proof tile throughout the washing room of the laboratory. A special type of paint was used in the washroom which will not be affected by the germs.
"The bacteriology staff hopes to have all the work completed within the next week," Dr. Treece added.

The Associated Women's Student have begun three new projects for making women better informed and more active in campus activities.
A calendar of all meetings, try-outs, and programs will be published every two weeks. This will be sent to each organized house and the heads of unorganized women's precincts. Sally Garland, College sophomore, chairman of the committee, says the first issue will be in the mail on Oct. 1.
AWS Begins New Activities Project
Jo Pownall, College senior, is chairman of a committee which is compiling lists for all organizations of women interested in joining the organizations. The names on these lists are taken from the activity cards filled out during enrollment. Women should soon be hearing from the heads of any activities in which they indicated an interest.
"Education for Self Government" will be the theme for three discussions conducted throughout the year at each of the organized houses and at the meetings of all precincts.
Mabel Conderman, business seni-
lor, has charge of the discussions.
"The Why and Wherefore of Self Government" will be discussed from Oct. 10 through 16, "Scholarship and the Honor System" from Jan. 9 through 13, and "Campus Elections" from March 13 through 19.
