What is the most urgent problem, in this time when the foundations of the great deep are broken up everywhere, now confronting the United States House of Representatives? Why, a pork barrel plan to pour a billion and a half dollars into bricks and mortar for our swollen colleges and universities, naturally. Speaker McCor-mack and Repre-sentative Adam Clayton Powell have hurried this bill into hearings before everything else—apparently in the hope that it may slide through before Congress understands its consequences.
