Immediately alter his signing at the While House. Orouped around the President are (left to right): James J. McTlgue, general counsel. Displaced Persons Commission; Joseph Peeney, legislative assistant to the President; Rep. Emanuel Ccller CD, N. Y.i, chairman of House Judiciary Committee: Sen. Harley M. Kllgore CD, W.

Largest Group of Ex-Servicemen Since Gl Bill Became Effective Graduating By United Press The lamest EroiiD of ex-serV' icemen since the GI bill of rights became effective is graduating this month from colleges and universities and there are Jobs available for the go-getters, edu cators said today. The Gl bill expires July 25, 1956. Hftor which all training must be completed. The deadline for enrollment is July 25. 1951. This year s crop of GI graduates hits the peak, since the heaviest matriculation was in 1946 after the war ended. Quarters To Disappear From now on tarpaper shacks, trailer homes and baby buggies will begin to disappear from col lege campuses. The total university enroll ment this year was 2,456,000, 35 per cent of which was ex service men and women, a 15 per cent drop from 1947. And 40 to 50 per cent of this June's history-making class are veter ans. That leaves only a taken few of the mass of ex-GI students who entered during and after the great demobilization after the war to carry on next fall. The impact of this huge mass of Job hunters on the business world and the hole they leave In the schools poses some problems, but school officials said the sit uation isn't desperate. No Recruiting Programs The schools won't have to start any large-scale recruiting programs to replace the veter. ans and, as the placement direct or at Indiana university ex plained, "there are plenty of jobs for those who go out and get them. However, the job situation varies with the locality. On the Pacific coast. Margar et G. Vandcver. director of vo cational guidance at Occidental college. Los Angeles, said that "after a slow and depressing winter, the employment picture brightened suddenly and sur prisingly several weeks ago. "Also, surprisingly." she said, "beginning salaries are higher than they were a year ago. Two years ago the going rate was $200 per month, last year $225 and this year it's been about $240." Opportunities Tighten The University of Missouri said "there was a tightening of Job opportunities." Marquette university said it had little trou ble placing grads In business ad mlnistraton and other specalized fields but "employers don't want graduates untrained in special fields." Rutgers university officials at New Brunswick, N. J., summed up the feeling of many place ment people, commenting, "Ex GIs have better chance for em ployment since they are more mature, which adds to their quality." The enrollment for next fall is not expected to be a problem since most schools are begin ning to reap the harvest of stu dents born after the depression when the birth rate started to go up. They expect to receive more and more of these. The census bureau predicts that en rollment in primary and second ary schools will jump by 1.000. 0U0 next year. Situation Acute The immediate situation in smaller colleges, however, is acute. Of 143 graduates at Wa bash college. Indiana, 94 were veterans. The school said it was "reviving prewar efforts to at tract students." The University of Mississippi also said it was reviving efforts to attract students and already has sent out a field man for re cruiting purposes. The southern shool also is using mailing pieces, brochures and a color motion picture in the high schools. But most great state universi ties, like Illinois, Wisconsin, Ore gon, North Carolina, Utah, Ohio. Pennsylvania and Louisiana, said they are doing nothing extraordi nary to attract students to fill up the GI vacancy. Los Angeles, June 17 (U.R) Mrs. Ellen F.

Paper products are in 'the running all the way through, from love letter to school books. Loggers should be promoters of marriage, therefore, and forest ers should stand like rocks against birth control. It's the little things, the pro cessed and finely finished items of everyday use that come from wood which return the most in come to the industry and its help. There's the 1050 census figures that show the value of "lumber and timber basic products" at $1,122,058,000. while the value of "furniture and finished lum ber products" was $1,267,724,000 and of "paper and allied pro ducts" $2,019,568,000. The moral is that small pieces of wood and little logs produce the biggest payrolls and require the utmost in wood merchandising. And this comes back to forest conservation. The woods can't be cleaned up rightly and left in shape for the growing of a new timber crop without sales to bring in the money to pay for all the work and expense. The more forest products for home and family use there are, the bet ter the forests will be used. Lullaby Logs The men of the furniture in dustry boast of their commercial concern with the blushing bride and the young wife and mother. Their advertising literature fea tures such items as the "Brides love Bedroom Suite," the "Secur-I-Kidy High Chair," and "Lulla bye Children's Furniture." In a booklet on the latter line the firm has a scries of illustra tions that range from its own timber through the finished product. The pictures are captioned "Lullabye Timber." "Hauling Lullabye Logs," "Lul labye Sawmill," and so on. By odd tradition, lumber in dustry trade promotion was storlgv. stuffy and pompous. Now the theme of the West Coast Lumbermen's association's new motion picture in color may be stated as something like this, "Hi vah. Bride! Come See What Paul Bunyan Has for You. Baby!" Now I dream of a magazine spread with a picture of a gay wolf of a logger, looking like a movie actor, and shown enticing a lovely bride to yield to the charms of "Darling Douglas Fir" for her new home. Let such an advertisement have menace. Let it strongly sug gest that husbands come to hate other materials. And then say, "Keep your man play safe with Darling Douglas Fir for your new home America's love lumber." I dream of that, but I don't really expect it for some time. Lumber's Market Month So June, the month of brides, is the market month for lumber. In Keokuk. Kankakee. Kalama zoo and ten thousand other towns and cities brides-to-be are shop ping for trousseaus, furniture and homes.
