Subjects
MANUFACTURING processes, PAPER product manufacturing, PAPER industry, PAPERMAKING machinery
Abstract

The article focuses on the plan to license the "Aero-Hydro" paper process developed by engineer H. Scherbak to American paper manufacturers. It states that Russia and Germany have the exclusive rights on the process because Scherbak communicated with the countries for the manufacture of the process. It says that changes which would suit the process in paper machines are inexpensive. It adds that resistance to acids can be added to the process if it will be changed into the manufacture line.

2. Outdoor Education in Germany, Austria and Switzerland. Occasional Paper No. XI.

Abstract

In the summer of 1972 graduate students from Northern Illinois University were enrolled in a six week study tour of outdoor education programs in Germany and Austria. The tour included observations and conferences with teachers, students, administrators, and Ministry of Education officials from both countries, guided tours of major cities, and visits and investigations of outdoor activity sites. Students kept a detailed daily log and submitted a thought reaction paper on a facet of outdoor education associated with their summer's study of programs. Nine of the student papers are presented in this document. The first paper, which analyzes Austrian and German concepts of outdoor education, mentions that both countries are extremely building and facilities oriented. It further observes an over-emphasis on certain segments of outdoor education, such as camping. Another paper compares teacher preparation for outdoor education in both countries with the programs found in America. Apparently America places greater emphasis on training programs while the European coutries rely more on self preparation and self study on the part of the teacher. Other papers deal with such topics as the relationship of physical education to outdoor education, potential values of the Schullandheim experience and its real function in the educational scheme, and the use of the city as a source for outdoor education experiences.

4. The Week.

Subjects
POLITICAL development, SUBMARINE disasters, WAR tax resistance, PAPER industry
Abstract

This article presents information about political developments around the world during the week as of February 22, 1917. Berlin's figures for submarine sinkings began by agreeing with Lloyd's figures, but have since steadily diverged. What appears to be an effort to impose new German war taxes, sufficient to cover annual interest on the war debt, is reported from Berlin through Amsterdam. The request of the news-print manufacturers that the U.S. Federal Trade Commission fix the prices of paper during the period from March 1 to September 1 is, perhaps, the logical outcome of the activities of that the commission during the last eight months.
