DOOMAN VISITS OFFICERS HERE

Eugene Dooman, high-ranking official in the United States Department of State, will visit the local unit of the Civil Affairs Training Service during this week and take part in round table discussions with the officers here.

Born in Osaka, Japan, Dooman lived in the Orient for over 30 years and is well steeped in the customs, manners, and reasoning of our enemy. He became a member of the United States Embassy at Tokyo and after many years of service rose to the post of Chief Consul in 1937, a position directly under Ambassador Joseph C. Grew '02.

Endures Imprisonment

With Grew he endured the tribulations of imprisonment and finally came to America on the Gripsholm. Like his superior, he was also appointed to the State Department's home offices.

Having arrived late Sunday night to spend the week here, he will lead daily discussion groups and round tables on his semi-native country, dealing not only in the political and military aspects, but also the cultural and human angle as well.
