At Beloit

A more concrete proposal for peace through education has been made at Beloit College, Wisconsin. Dr. George L. Collie, Dean of the school and widely known anthropologist, said in an address welcoming President Irving Maurer to his new duties that much could be accomplished towards the melting pot by bringing representatives from many races to Beloit as students.

The result, said Dean Collie, would be a kind of ethnological laboratory, the composition of which would be some-what as follows: American students, 40%; Europeans, 20; Asiatics, 20; South Americans, 10; Africans, 10. The plan is interesting, but its success as regards peace would depend upon the extent to which it was adopted by other American colleges, and by colleges the world over.
