STUDY IN GERMANY
SCHOLARSHIPS GIVEN FACILITIES FOR BRITISHERS United Tress Association—By Electric Tel* graph—ConyrisUt LONDON, October 19.. An anonymous Hamburg merchant, as a thanksoffering for the German Rhodes Scholarships at Oxford, has founded a number of annual scholarships, each valued at 3000 reichsmarks, to enable students from the universities of Britain and the Empire to have a year's study in Germany. They are to be called the Hanseatic Scholarships, and will be awarded without an examination on a recommendation following an interview. The founder hopes they will further closer relations and understanding be* tween Germany and Britain and promote consciousness of European solidarity. The same donor has founded three annual prizes valued at 10,000 reichsmarks in Britain, Holland, and Scandinavia for distinguished work in literature and the arts. It is understood that the first British recipient of the Shakespeare Prize, as it is named, will be the composer Dr. Ralph Vaughan Williams.
