Nanking's Relief for Former Hopei, Charhar Groups Nanking, Nov. 10

For the relief of the large numbers of students and teachers in Hopei, Charhar, Suiyuan and the two municipalities of Peiping and Tien tsin, now all under Japanese military occupation, the Executive Yuan at its weekly session yesterday approved a set of measures which will be enforced as soon as all details are worked out.

Monthly subsidies which the Ministries of Education and Finance used to give to schools in these areas. mainly for mass education purposes, "will be issued at par or at a discount io establish vocational and normal schools in Honan and Shensi.

The opening of special classes for graduates of junior and senior middle schools, and of junior colleges will also be undertaken. Such classes may last from six months to a year.

As many of the former teaching staffs in the provinces and cities concerned as can be accommodated will be employed to run these special schools and classes in Honan and Shensi, which, because of their relative proximity to the occupied territories, have been chosen as venues for these educational relief projects.—Central News.
