The meeting, held at the home of the president, Lawrence So lin, and Mrs. Solin, followed a potluck dinner. Dr. Landros, professor-emeritus of foreign languages at the University of Oregon, recently returned home after traveling in Europe. "With work and help and edu cation, we may, through the United Nations, alleviate some of these attitudes in Europe; but it will take a long time, as these wrongs have been going on for generations," Dr. Landros said. Patterns Stressed The three distinct patterns of living in Europe at the present time were stressed by Dr. Lan dros. First, the pattern of the recently occupied country was mentioned, of which 'Austria was the example. Then, Spain, which represented the country living under a dictatorship and East Germany, which is still oc cupied. Dr. Landros said that she was trying to give her audience a picture of the little things, which are not mentioned in books, but which still impress the outsider far more than the larger facts, which are more ap parent. The paper shortage in Spain is particularly expressive of the almost incredible poverty of this charming country, she said. Bus tickets are used until they are in shreds, the busses meeting and handing the tickets back and forth, as there are not enough of these printed tickets to take care of one day's opera tions, she added. Newspaper Analyzed The Spanish newspaper is un believable to Americans used to the operations of our free press Dr. Landros mentioned the A.- B.C., which is the largest daily in Madrid. The first three pages of one issue were devoted to a discussion a dull, pedantic, polysyllabic discussion, of Nietz sche. The middle six pages were devoted to advertising and the last seven listed all the proces sions and observances of Holy Week in Spain. As far as foreign news went, there was a three inch, one column article at the bottom of one page In the mid dle of the paper, announcing the freeing of Spanish Morocco, ad vising Spain's neighbors to the north to follow suit. The brotherhood and true social democracy of the Span iards is outstanding, particularly in the context of complete po litical dictatorship, she said. However, Dr. Landros pointed out, there is not much evidence of political awareness on the Have Fun at.

"Af ter six years of war and ten of occupation by the USSR, they have no energy to expend on present leisures. They act as if every iota of extra energy they have must be saved to get them through the remaining years of their life," she added. The Austrians are still pas sionately fond of music add ev ery performance of the Opera House in Vienna is still filled to capacity, which is 4,000 seats, with as many standees as fire regulations permit. The people come in their work clothes, and even though Austria gets bit terly cold, no gloves are to be seen, as they are considered a luxury now that the country is so poor. ' East Berlin, under the Rus sians, is still unreconstructed. West Berlin, though poor, is slowly being rebuilt by hand labor and hand tools. One of the biggest problems of West Berlin is to find some sort of employ ment for the stream of refugees, the speaker declared. From New Year's Day until April 17 of this year, there were 5,000 refugees from East Berlin alone. Dr. Landros mentioned that one of the most shocking things to her, indicative of the politi cal immorality of the Russians, was the fact that the black mar ket in East Berlin is operated by the government.
