YOUTH SERVICE PROPOSED
BY STUDENT FEDERATION
New York, N. T. (NSFA)—Realiz
ing the necessity for a concentrated
attack on the curreut American Youth
problem, the National Student Federa
tion of America, has suggestion to the
Department of the Interior that a
separate agency be set up to coordi
nate scattered relief efforts being
made in behalf of young people and
develop a long-range plan to provide
Cor people seeking initial employment.
At present there are over six mil
lion persons between the ages of six
teen and twenty-five who are unem
ployed and out of school. Almost one
milliou more In the same condition
are not listed us unemployed tvecause
ihey have never had a job. To pro- at least another generation.
vide for them the Government has set
up C. G. C. and Traasieat camps, has
appropriated FERA funds which al
low 100,000 to continue In college and
through the Department of Labor has
set up State Ageucles to supervise
apprenticeships In industry.
It is the belief of the Federation’s
members, its Advisory Board and its
Administrators that the greatest pos
sible good is not being derived from
these mechanisms but that it would
be derived If they were coordinated,
given a single purpose and held to a,
consistent course over a reasonable
period of time.
Youth is at a distinct disadvantage
In government. A majority ot young
people are not privileged to vote be
cause of the age limitation and be;
causa at present such a large per
centage Is transient. And that the
voico of the non-voter is inaudible iii
Washington Is Indisputable.
That this voice of a large cross-
section of our population may be
beard, that its cry be answered, the
Federation bolievea that In the D»
partment of the Interior a Youth
Service should be set up to estimate
the actual and entire needs ol Youth,
to plan for tbo satisfaction of these
needs and bring the necessary pres
sure to bear in order that this satis
faction can be realized.
The temporary relief now extended
to Youth Is nothing more than a
demoralizing crutch. And the ab^
sence of this crutch will be felt when
it is removed. Young people in
C. C. C. camps are willing that Uncle
Sam continue to support them; those
on the road are not encouraged to
give up their gypsy life by the hos
pitality offered through Transient
Camps. The result is a demoraliza
tion of a considerable group of future
citizens. There la power enough In
this group for a revolution or for
deterioration to the point where
America will suffer from dryrot for
FOUNDERS’ DAY GREETINGS
EXTENDED BY DR. BREWER
Meredith College—Founders’ Day.
What an interesting combination of
terms!
Meredith College—in the midst of
Its thirty-sixth year—with more than
thirteen hundred graduates and num
bering about five thousand who have
come under its influence on its cam
pus!
Founders’ Day—r e c a 111 n g the
achievements o£ those who have la
bored and sacrificed in order to make
it possible for Meredith Coliege to
open on September 27, 1899, and to
continue with gratifying development
year by year. This brief history In
cludes such notable events as Mere
dith’s admission to membership In the
Southern Association of Colleges and
Secondary Schools, membership in the
American Association of University
Women, and Its name placed on the
list of institutions approved by the
Association oC American Universities.
At a time like this we naturally
recall the blessings of the past and,
at the same time, take a forward look.
We rejoice not only in the large num
ber wlio have studied here but far
more In the wonderful contributions
these students have made to life
through church and community enter
prises.
We greet you, dear alumnae, former
students, and other frionds, with glad
hearts today. We are having an un
usually fine session. There are E35
enrolled, a number never exceeded at
Meredith except for the session of
1927-1928, when we had 561. The spirit
on the campus is moat gratifying and
the work most satisfactory.
