While many Harvard man have, to the past, been able to travel and study in Europe under various scholarships, a new scholarship system, recently proposed by Ferdinand Hirogoyen, mayor of Biarritz, France, may create even greater opportunity.
His plan, as he expressed it, is to be an exchange of young men between France and the United States. Enlightened self-interest, not international idealism, is to be the basis of the plan and the students would be shown, not churches and museums, but factories and banks. The scheme has already obtained the support of many important industrialists and financiers in both France and the United States, and Mr. Hirogoyen hopes that the first exchange may take place next summer.
This plan, looking forward to the mutual exchange of a thousand selected leaders of the younger generation, ought to be closely watched. It may, in the next year, prove to be a great chance for many Harvard undergraduates.
