THE 3IORXIXG OREGOXIAN, MOXD AT, SEPTEMBER 27, 1920 COLLEGES TO TEACH Management Course to Be Added by Most. . PLAN WELL FINANCED frebident of Drexel Institute De clares Big Corporations Are GivlDg Support. - NEW TORK, Sept. 16. A course in management education" to provide .a ufficient number of properly trained xecutives for the industries of the United States will be established in a majority of the 620 American colleges, according to "an announcement made to the Associated Press here today by Ir. Hollis trodfrey. president of the Drexel institute. Philadelphia, for merly commissioner of the advisory commission of the council of national defense. The plan, an outgrowth of a con Tention attended by representatives of industry and colleges in Philadel phia last March, is baeked by corpor ations representing: a capitalization of $26,000,000,000. It Is the result. Dr. Godfrey said, of these two faotors coming to a definite working agree ment for the first time through the establishment of the council of man agement education, an organization formed "to study mutual problems in order that the colleges may render the greatest possible service to in dustry." Plan Being Perfected. Dr. Godfrey, chairman of the new body, assisted by Vr. Samuel P..Capen, general director of the American council on education, representing the 620 colleges; and DK Frederick C. Ferry, president of Hamilton college, are perfecting the pian which contem plates establishing practical courses in the schools, assisting undergrad nates and others to choose their life's work, by placing several thousand students and teachers in Industry dur. ing the summer months and by intro ducing extension courses for men now in Industry. By the summer work, students will be enabled to defray their expenses at college, obtain ! Insight Into American, industry and enable the executives to select fu ture management men. The council of management educa tion, which has been formed, it was said, to become "a clearing house for all industrial and educational matters In the country, to promote the mutual understanding of the mutual problems of Industry and the college and to keep perpetual inventory of the edu cational needs of industry and of the ability of the colleges to meet these needs," has opened temporary offices In the Drexel building, Philadelphia, until headquarters are furnished in Washlngtoi Annual ApproprlflttoAt Made. An annual appropriation of $100,600, entirely borne by American industry, has been made to carry on its work. All of the courses and scholastic recommendations, it was said, will be passed upon jointly by the council of management of education and the American council on education be fore being forwarded to the institu tions of learning. "Within one year. it is estimated, 100 colleges will have included the extension Industria courses and all will be provided with the industrial material upon which to base undergraduate work."" The council, according to Lr. God frey, is the only war organization which has carried operations Into time of peace. Nearly all of the edu cators back of the movement served In the Council of National Defense. When the armistice was signed rhese men decided that the educational knowledge gained during the war at an expenditure of millions of dollars should not be lost. Accordingly plans were set in motion to turn this information over to Industry. A sur vey of the needs of industry was made under the auspices of the Technology Clubs Associated of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. home on Fairmount heights last night at the age of 60 years.

"Medford is -experiencing a serious situation in the. shortage of houses for the influx of population that has set," said Mr; Frobach. -"Crop condi tions have been splendid the last three years and while, there was a period during the war In which because of lack of local industries many persons left to participate in shipbuilding and other activities elsewhere, -the present population is much greater than ever before. The banks have larger de posits than at any previous time in their history. The. Brownies timber interests. with holdings of timber trajts on the west side of the Cascade mountains, are. starting the construction of a large sawmill that is probably the biggest thing in store in an industrial way for the immediate future. The comprfny has three mills- In Missis- ppi that are bei&g" dismantled and the machinery shipped to Medford. Within four months they Will start operating a mill with a capacity for IdO.OOO feet a day; This development was made possible by the sale of the Pacific & Eastern railroad to the Olds company of Cheboygan, Mich., which assures the continued operation of the line and opening of the large tim ber tracts of the adjacent territory.

''This is an off year for the annle crdp. but the community will ship about 250 cars of the fruit. Pear shipments of the year were about 700 cars,- not quite so many carloads as last year but returning more money to the growers because of higher prices. Bartlett pears sold at Hi a ton In 1919 and this year brought prices ranging from S5 to $110 a ton. Alfalfa hay has been shipped to Cali- fornia. The valley is again coming back to'a considerable yield of grain. Diversified production is makinc the prosperity of the valley felt gen erally, and there is more variety than ever before in the market crops. Dairying is developing well, "... with many herds of high grade . cattle. Medford boasts the best farm bureau exchange in the state and its success is attracting more than local interest. experi-impos- MRS. M.
