Readers of the National Education association an extremely conservative organization meeting in Minneapolis last week viewed with and with extremely good reason. The alarm plight of the schools, as told by men and women with first hand information, is little less than desperate. Unless the poorer farming districts of the country have aid soon from the richer urban centers, declared Commissioner of Education W. J. Cooper, our rural school system will collapse. Dr. John K. Norton of Columbia university pointed out that a regular campaign is on the curb free schooling. This movement, he declared, is fostered by those who control great wealth who are willing to cripple the public school system in order to cut down their taxes. . There are those, said Dr. Norton, who believe in limiting education, who want education in a broad cultural way only for the classes, while the masses are given but a taste of it We call upon those who sit in key places of business and financial control to spend less time in organizing economy leagues which Btrike indiscriminately at every public service, such as the schools, which the people have created for their children." One of the best illustrations of these economy drives came from another quarter. The Kiwanis club of Texarkana held a Washington luncheon on Georges birthday. It was an intensely patriotic affair. The D. A. R. furnished a capital W and then Dean Akin of the junior college talked , of schools. He said they could keep open if. the teachers would take a cut in salaries. The highest paid white teacher in that district now gets $120 a month. The plan is to cut this to $40. The lowest paid white teacher gets $40 now, and the lowest colored teacher $31. If they are subjected to the same proportionate reduction how can RPN-A- D YOCA TE, representatives in Peru that the credit of that countrys government was very bad at the time. In spite of such warnings, one of the National City bank agents in Peru, having written the financiers that the Peruvian treasury was flat on its back and gasping for breath," the National City helped float the loan. The Peruvian bonds were sold to American investors at 96 and 97 cents on the dollar, a profit of five cents on each dollar to the banking concern. In negotiating these loans, the New York financiers made a present of $400,000 to the son of President Leguia of PerjL Gordon Creek School District Folks Plan to Hold Benefit Affair bers.

The income of Mr. Smith, chief of the Empire State Building company, whose salary a couple of years ago was reduced, puted to be $50,000 annuially as such an official, appears to have been somewhat reduced but to what extent was not announced. However, Mr. Smith still occupies a $10,000-a-yeapartment on Park Avenue, and reported that he paid $10,200 income tax last year. His expression concerning the situation was: The result is that I have been compelled to dispense with my car and my chaffeur and am now riding to work in the subway. It might be well to point out here that the difference between the income tax and the sales tax is that you do not have to pay the former unless you have an income, but you would have to pay the general sales tax if you had not had an income for several years. ar MISLEADING A NATION 3elievers in representative government find much reason for being exercised over the turn of events in Germany, a nation that at one time set a pace in cultural and legislative Helds and granted high rating in world councils. Germany of late, however, has fallen in a bad way insofar as government is concerned, has reached a depth on that ladder that is very close to the lowest rung. The ascendency of Adolph Hitler to a powerful position in the government of that nation bodes ill for his countrymen, according to those informed concerning European milky-hu- e imitator of Benito Silitics. Hitler is a dictator of Italy, a leader who does not lack in ability even though his methods of dealing with opponents may be found wanting in more than one way. It is to be hoped that Germany will find its way open to clearing its governmental skirts of Hitler and his junkermen associates in the near future. Hitlerism can mean but one thing for Germany and that result will be trouble.
