School in Cologne

A vivid picture of the physical and human difficulties facing the authorities trying to rebuild educational facilities in the western zone of post-war Germany. Cold, hunger, bomb-blasted buildings, shortage of teachers, lack of suitable textbooks, are but some of the difficulties which must be overcome.
