‘Races of Mankind’ Sculptures, 1933/2016;胡適第三次出國記1933年6月11日至7月7日....Haskell Foundation Lecture.....太平洋學會的年會.....933-34年的世博 A Century of Progress International Exposition


此"胡適第三次出國"的美國部分,"日記"不多,多在通信上。不過胡頌平先生的 "年譜長編初稿",因為沒看過日記,資料更欠缺。出國前一周在南京和上海等地,見了近百中外人士以上,汪精衛就兩次,所以"日記"還是很重要的資訊。


胡適第三次出國記1933年6月11日至7月7日,又10月12-12
中間我到 Chicago 大學作Haskell Foundation Lecture。又到 Banff溫泉赴太平洋學會的年會,皆以事忙,沒有日記。

胡適1933年7月12日至24日在芝加哥大學的哈斯克講座Haskell Foundation Lecture。9月30日交稿,10月1日寫序。1944年5月出書。

7月31日參觀1933-34年的世博:8月1日給韋蓮司信報告他從10點走到下午4點,39街走到12街。中華民國的上海街在18街科學館對面......


A Century of Progress International Exposition was a World's Fair held in Chicagofrom 1933 to 1934 to celebrate the city's centennial. The theme of the fair was technological innovation. The fair's motto was "Science Finds, Industry Applies, Man Adapts"; its architectural symbol was the Sky Ride, a transporter bridge perpendicular to the shore on which one could ride from one side of the fair to the other.
