urer. Mrs. Guches is now attending

p.m. The program will consist of

Political and economic condi
tions in Europe were discussed
by a panel of foreign exchange
students, led by John A. Schulz,
assistant professor of psychology
at Southern Oregon college.
Speakers were Knud Anderson,
Denmark, Madeleine Michel,
France and Harald Stieler, Ger
many. Knud Anderson stressed the
importance of finding a broader
market for Denmark's exports
and also expressed deep thanks
for the aid given his country
through the Marshall plan. Miss
Michel brought out that French
people were not as aware of the
benefits of the Marshall plan be
cause the aid was indirectly used
for reconstruction. She said that
American travel in France was
very helpful to the French econ
omic situation and that now is a
good time to visit France because
of the high dollar value there.
Regarding the Marshall plan,
Harald Stieler stated that much
of the benefit derived from it
was offset by restrictions which
prevented development of Ger
man industries. It was interest
ing to note that each speaker
minimized the threat of the
communist party in his country.
The program was followed by
a discussion period in which an
interesting comparison of the
school systems in each country
was brought out.
The students have been study
ing at SOC and at the University
of Oregon this past year and will
return to their own country at
the end of the school term.
