The National Science Foundation reports that In the 1953-'54 school year some 34,000 foreign students studied in American institutions. It said this was "equal to the combined enroll-' ment of foreign students In all universities of western Europe," MAKE DAD A HAPPY FELLA i with PRE-SMOKED rabow 5 i which 30 years ago "attracted three times as many foreign students as those in the United States." By 1955-'56, the foundation added, foreign enrollment In United States schools had risen to 36,000.

Slightly more than one third of these students were doing graduate work. Before 1946 there never were mo 'e 10,000 foreign jtudents here, and of hese only about one-fourth were graduate students.
