vallts, June 1 While decrying the
current tendency to look upon the
federal government as a benevolent
family doctor, Dr. W. O. Thompson.
president emeritus of Ohio State uni
versity, .In his commencement address
here today held that the only meth
od yet devised for dealing with the
increasing number of interstate prob
lems is tnrougn federal control.
- Dr. Thompson, an internationally
famous educator, was speaker at the
sixty-second annual - commencement
here when 442 students had degrees
conferred on them by President W. J.
Kerr who performed this function to-
day for the twenty-fourth year. Forty
five of the seniors were graduated
wim nonors. -
"Our Changing Citizenship" . was
the subject of Dr. Thompson's ad
dress in which he reviewed current
Ideas as to citizenship, present state
of mind in the United States, ten
dencies In legislation and -trends in
international relations.
- ' One of Oldest Countries '
' The fact is frequently overlooked
that the United States is one of the
oldest governments with 140 years of
constitution life undisturbed except
by the Civil war. the speaker pointed
out. "We are not suffering so much
from the mere fact of age, however,
as from magnitude of area and vari
ety of population." he said.
"Moss production together with
increased rate of speed has brought
about a condition that baffles our
wisest - statesmen," said' Or. Thomp
son. "Perhaps there never was a time
when we had such a surplus of In
conclusive thinking as we now have.
Men seem to have the idea that the
relation of government to the ctlzen
Is much like that of the .family doc- ;
