Opinions Divided Whether Junior Smarter Than Dad
By JAMES M. LONG
ROME (AP)-It turned 0 to be a mightly debatable point educa- day whether junior will grow up to a smarter man than his father.
An expert said "yes"-but big name men in science stood up and said ”no."
By the time the argument died down. about an hour and some 30 speakers later. 500 United Nations population experts had heard that there are a lot of reasons to be- lieve mankind is actually getting more stupid each generation.
It started when Dr. Anne Anas- issi, professor of pshychology at Fordham University, New York, presented statistics pretty much in )unior's favor.
They showed a high increase in lQ in army intelligence tests of 1' S snldicrs in the Second World War mcr their fathers who served in the First World War. Other sur- vey: showed progressively higher intelligence tests among United States high school students over the last 20 years.

OTTAWA, iCPi-Works Minister Winters. in charge of a 3150 000,000 public construction program, today announced the opening of a new economic study unit to help imple- ment the program "to the best ad- vantage nf the Canadian economy."
Appointed to head the new unit is Dr. E. P. Weeks. a Rhodes scholar who initiated a study of the impart of public construction on various regions in 1946.
A 42-year-old native of Prince Edward Island. for the last few years he has been director of the defence production departments economics and statistics branch.
Mr. Winters said in a. statement that the primary function of the new body "would be to study and assess the impact of proposed pub- lic projects on the economy, par- llciilarly of the various areas, and to assist the department in imple- menting its pmgi-am to the best advantage of the Canadian econ- nmy."
MAY HELP EVALUATION
The department receives I lot of requests for projects involving the spending of public funds and he is anxious to remove from the engineering staff "some of the bur- den of attempting to evaluate the importance of the various projects and to have more detailed studies of the economic significance. par- ticularly of the large projects."
In an interview later Mr. Wint- ers sald he hopes more and more of the public projects. such as a lo- cal post offices, wharvcs and bridges will be used as "invest- ments" to help stimulate local economy. The new unit will assess the planned works with that thinking in mind.
The works department thLi year is handling a si50,000.000 budget. with emphases on defence con- struction declining. informants say the works budget may be in- creased with the department event- ually absorbing the work of the government's Defence Construction Ltd.
Dr. Weeks was a. 1933 Rhodes Scholar from Mount Allison Uni- varsity.
VAIIIED EXPERIENCE
During the second World War, he headed the foreign economics section of the British information ministry. returnng to Canada n 1946 when he directed the recon- struction department's area studies division.

New Canadian llas Language Difficulties
VANCOUVER, (CF) - A pretty new Canadian has progressed to the point where she's learning her English backwards.
Marianne l-fissing. who came from Eskilstuna. Sweden, about a year ago. says, "When I came to Vancouver, the letter tj' became ljay' instead of 'yay'. Now I have
to think hard so I don't say ljellow' for 'yellow' and 'Joung' for 'young'.''
Housing and architecture and eating habits in Canada interest Marianne, but she says its the people who fascinate her most.
"It's fun to call out 'Hi' when you meet people a second time. and to laugh and have fun right from the start."
she said young man here are nice. Swedish fellows don't find it so easy to tell you if you're smart looking and a good dancer.
Marianne, who has done ama- teur and professional modelling. said it was I shame so many Van- couver women wear dowdy rain- coats and dark felt hats even when it's not raining. "And with smart. weatherproof clothes in the stores 00,.
"1 have learned to go to China- town for food. In Sweden we l1livP the 15-dish smorgasbord but I
thought it was delightful the first time I saw your huge mixed salads with just a out everything in."
Between modelling jobs Mar- ianne Is taking a business course. She would like to be an airline stewardess.
''In the meantime, I'm learning f'V9l'!'i-hlnl I can about Canada." she said. "Maybe it doesn't m-.-an much to you that I can now an 'jump' and 'Jimmy'. But. it does to me."
