Twentieth Century Southern Literature
Though the flowering of realistic and local-color writing during the first two decades of the century was a sign of things to come, the period between the two world wars was a crucial one for the South's literary development: a literary revival in Richmond came to fruition; at Vanderbilt University a group of young men produced The Fugitive, a remarkable magazine that published some of the century's best verse in its brief run; and the publicatio…

Correlation of Alaskan varve Thickness with Climatic Parameters, and use in Paleoclimatic Reconstruction
The thickness of varves in the sediments of Skilak Lake, Alaska, are correlated with the mean annual temperature ( r = 0.574), inversely correlated with the mean annual cumulative snowfall ( r = −0.794), and not correlated with the mean annual precipitation ( r = 0.202) of the southern Alaska climatological division for the years 1907–1934 A.D. Varve thickness in Skilak Lake is sensitive to annual temperature and snowfall because Skilak Glacier, …

International Education in a Troubled World
The external and internal environment of the U.S. has changed significantly since World War Two. Our military preeminence has vanished, in economic affairs the American model is not valid for other countries, and the U.S. is no longer the scientific leader of the world. Our foreign policy has become much more closely intertwined with domestic issues among which cultural pluralism is important. In an inter dependent world we cannot solve problems …

Should The Brain Drain Be Encouraged? A Critical Look At The Grubel‐Scott Approach

The University in Transition
Foreign Aid and the Brain Drain
OUR foreign policies are often much more closely related to our domestic policies than we realize?and not alone through the political struggles over appropriations, or even over Congressional approval of international agreements. Indeed, our foreign policies can come so sharply into conflict with our domestic policies that, unless this conflict is both understood and resolved by governmental leaders, domestic pressures can completely undermine an…

Administration of the National Security Program
THE National Security Act of 1947 provides the organizational structure in the executive branch for managing our program of national security. This act was amended in 1949 to correct some deficiencies, but the agencies of today are essentially those established in 1947. Before attempting an analysis of the present working of our security structure, let us make a quick review of the cast of characters and the roles they were and are expected to pl…

D ID you say you were going to Washington? To take a job with the government? Stout fellow! But before you go, relax and listen to the distilled wisdom of those who have been the mill. In a few short minutes you can receive, in capsule form, a briefing on the four steps of your development. That you will go through these steps is absolutely inevitable. But, thanks to some profound research you will be able to go through them with your eyes open. …
Congressional Investigations of Matters of International Import
Recent congressional debates on neutrality legislation have once more focused attention on the problem of control of American foreign policy. On the one hand, the President has demanded that leadership in formulation of foreign policy be concentrated in the hands of the executive; on the other hand, Congress has insisted that its powers be employed to provide for adequate control of that leadership on behalf of the people. This problem of executi…
