SIMPLE TERMS IS GREAT PUBLIC NEED Philadelphia, Pa., April 10.-- Presentation of artistic, literary and scientific discoveries and ad- vances in terms that the people can understand is one of the chief in- tellectual needs of the day, in tne opinion of Professor John W.

Other letters from Dean Emory R. Johnson of the Wharton School of Finance and Commerce; Dr, Fe- lix E. Schelling, Professor of Eng- lish language and literature, and Dr. J. Parsons Schaeffer, Profes- sor of anatony at Jefferson Medical College, have been made public. Dean Johnson expressed views similar to those of Professor Harsh- berger. "Probably the "world's greatest intellectual need," he wrote, "is assistance in understand- ing the relationship of scientific work in different fields." Dr. Schelling sees danger "narrower specialization." "I am not sure," he wrote, "that tific in "| we shall not be constrained to con- fess that we live in an age in which we are too busy harvesting to take the time to estimate the value and inter-relations of our crops. A great harmonizer in science we have in Einstein, but the harmon- izer between the triumphs of science and those of the imaginative and creative arts {is mot conspicuous among us." Dr. Schaeffer wrote that one of the most important intellectual needs was "for the several scien- tific and humanistic groups to be more tolerant of each other."
