For Governors A. Thnrsday, August I race riots, and roads the conference of SCHOOLS, at this mornings session at the state capltol. The subject of womens suffrage was conspicuously absent, by reason of a rule which requires unanimous consent before an outsider may speak before the conference. Gov. Harding of Iowa, suggested that Mrs. Abby Scott Baker) of the National Woman's party, be permitted to apeak. He said unanimous consent was necessary, and he asked for It. Gov. J. B. A. Robertson desired to enter protest," but made no explanation. V The matter ended right there. Gov. Allen of Kansas subsequently had a proposal for a $400,000,000 ap-- , propriatlon for federal aid to roads. This was withdrawn when a parliamentary battle ensued, and when Gov. Stewart of Montana Insisted that the conference rule be observed, of keep-- I Ing away from resolutions. Two pioneers of the conference, for-- , met Gov. Carey of Wyoming, and for mer Gov. Spry of Utah, spoke, and Bishop T. D. Bratton talked briefly but forcibly on tbs racs question, and proposed a plan for helping to solve , this big question. Gov. J. 8. Townsend of Delaware waa chairman of the morning session. It was his first 'session and he expressed his admiration for the west, for the Utah capltol, and for western enterprise. Announcement waa made that Gov. Roberson will replace Gov. Harding on the reeolutlona committee. Almost the most radical thing Delaware haa done for education, said Gov. Townsend In opening discussion on that subject, was the the passage er a new school code which revolutionized the system. Pierre du Pont, who was on the Delaware commission Is contributing $600,000 a year for four years, and the Rockefeller Institute which assisted In drawing up a model school system. No branch of the state governof ment," sad Governor Harding Iowa, "ought to receive more attention than the public schools. The state has an aggregate investment of $60,000,000 to public schools, and for $11,000,000 raises annually schools,. to addition to $12,000,000 and $4(600,000 for institutions of higher , Almost 0 per cent of the taxes to Iowa, with the exception of roads, go for education. The percentage ought to be raised rather than lowered. Outlines States Duty. t is the duty of the statstheto furpubnish the boys and girls in lic schools with opportunity to find out what they want to do, and then to help them train alomf those lines." Iowa Is encouraging occupational or vocational education, said Gov. small towns Harding, especially In the where the course includes Is agrireculture. Agriculture is Iowa a science. garded as a profession and has about Iowa agricultural college 200 persons to extension work and the state university Is now started on a similar policy. Gov. Robertson, of Oklahoma, said to the his stats has 6t,000 enrollment per cent public schools, of whom 65 Problems attend the district schools. lying ahead of Oklahoma schools were outlined. The curriculum covers a wide are range of subjects and the schools not giving satisfactory service. Manual training, domestic science, gymflastic work were mentioned as being added. The school system seems to be he said, with the university as as the base and the common schools the apex. He .thought the reverse should be two,1 He had caused an educational survey to be made, with the purpose of getting back to first principles."There Is something fundamentally wrong." said Governor Robertson, "with the echool" system of the country. .The higher institutions are getting the bulk of the appropriations. The common schools are left largely by the school land funds and direct taxation. Robertson j deprecated Governor what he termed an educational trust, or sysp-- r of accrediting schools to colleges. , Vv Bamberger Speaks. Govert yBamberger told of his keen appreciation for education. He told of hie arrival in the United Statee In bis pocket He there'wlth tlS-4fore knew something of the value of educetlo'n. His first public office wal as a member of a board of education. He found teachers were underpaid, and worked for an increaae to salaries, which waa to part obtained. The new Utah school laws, he said, were advocated by the teacher. Utah, said the governor, spends 75 per cent of Its revenue for educa- -- top-heav- y, vlf -tion.. He reviewed the new Utah school Part-timvocational . health, and similar laws. j men been have Young applying for positions at $75 a month when If properly trained in vocations they could saslly get jobs at $150 a month. Since prohibition, said the governor, A different class Is coming to the ' schools The state prison now houses only 11$ men. The man who spent his Saturday nights In ths saloons, now goes home with his arm full of packages. This Is helping education materially. Gov. 'Bamberger said,. he had been , . . accused during the campaign of being 'a saloonkeeper. He said he had not been a prohibitionist but knew he could not be elected except as a supa prohibition law. He hsd porter lawa r e, A ' 21.W,w establishment' of a of aeronautics In the government, with the secretary of the department as a member of the presidents cabinet, la one of the biggest matters being considered by the governors in attendance at the Salt Lake conference A telegram waa received Tuesday by Gov. J. A. A. Burnoulat of Minnesota from the Pennaylvania aeronautic club, asking that the governors assembled in Salt Lake City give the matter hearty support. Gov. Burn-qulhas turned the matter over to a committee for consideration. A more enthusiastic plea for the Immediate consideration of aeronautic activities has seldom been made than that filvem out this morning at the Holel-Uta- h by Assistant Adjutant Osneral W. C. Garis of Minnesota, who has accompanied Gov. Burnqulst to this city. The adjutant general is declared to be one of the best informed men at the conference, besides being an experienced aviator, and in his opinion the airship as a commercial Institution has come to stay and Is now the big factor In adcommercial activijusting post-wa- r ties; He Is president of the St. Paul Aeronautic club and he declares that federal aid in promoting airplane travel Is one of the crying needs of ths hour. He expressed s hope that the governors would consider seriously the message from ths Pennsylvania club. Wants Aero Club Here. I deeply regret there Is no aeronautic club in Salt Lake. At home ws now have air mall service between have four Chicago and St. Paul. We to the state large aero corporations as as $50,000 high with capitalization and two cities already have a toil of 33 ships. We are actually demonths business men, who, by strating tomnst be convinced that air the way, service has corns to stay. We Include business men to our membership and make constant demonstration trip I have always maintained that airout of ships could navigate $00 days the $66. To demonstrate, last February with the temperature down to zero two of uz made a trial Sight with mall from SL Paul to Duluth. Of course we su.ieied from the bitter cold but we arrived at our destination and proved we that despite the sleet and wind ancould make the trip. We made other trip to which we took guinea ths Mayo inpigs from St. Paul to collected mall stitute at Rochester, there and distributed it to three other towns, making the trip to a remarkably short time. From St; Panl to By Chicago by train takes 12 hours.to cut air it is four. We are able flown the distance by a stralghter course through ths air, from over 460 miles to 220, and we can go at a rate bf 100 miles an hour. We reoently had a banquet at St Paul and heard a report of the mail service In the east According to that report the aero mail Service there has been thus far 100 per cent perfect We have a total mem2,000 to the Minnebership of nearly sota aerio clubs to Minneapolis, St. Paul. Duluth, Rochester and Winona. And others are being founded- - We are most fortunate to the fact that Governor Burnqulst'ls deeply Interested In aeronautics. "The facts that, citizens of the counaero try must realize are these: The service asked for $120,000,000 to promote airship activities to this country. Only $50,000,000 was granted. This leaves the rest of ths amount to be advanced by business men. England has spent some $300,000,000 on aeronautics and France and Italy very large sums. To keep apace with this old world progressiveness, the nations aero clubs must become active. There Is now an established air line between Paris and London with a $75 passenger fee. Over there they have already demonstrated the saving of time to air travel, and It has been used by peace party officials traveling back and forth between the two capitals. We must have federal legislation In regard to the periodical Inspection of passenger ships, licensing of pilots, securihg of landing places and the establishing of minor supply and repair statloys In order that travel In the air mayjpe made perfectly safe for Individuals in a word such regulations as to safeguard travel to ths air as on ths ground. Says Travel Is Safe. Travel in the air to Itself is safe if ths driver but knows his weather conditions and keeps his head. Of course, we can as yet do no traveling by night as we have a yet no lighthouses or landing places. Ths majority of accidents are caused by the flyers going too low. If they keep at a height of 4,000 feet above the ground they theil have a eliding space and In that space can surely not help finda safe ing landing. Individuals ths country over are commencing to learn the advantage of air travel. The Curtiz North Western Air- oompsny at St. Paul since May 1 has sold 13 ships to individuals for pleasure and service. Two or three real estate men have invested for bdslnese use. Ons doctor with a country practice visits his patients via ths Air traffic undoubtedly has air line come to stay. It will adjust traffic It will to the end help to problem the lowering of the cost of living as transportation la necessarily one of the big factors of expense In getting produce to the consumer. Even department stores out our way have tried delivering goods by air. We are demonstrating that the air ship can be used to advantage In business, that it la a safe, same way to travel and that piloting a car, Is much easier tnan driving an automobile. Minnesota, I believe, while not up in aeronautic activities with the east Is away to ths foremost ranks-o- f states Interested to air activities and probably can be called a leader to such activities tn the west.

He Is now converted to the advantages of prohibition. Could Say One Word. Gov. Larraxolo of New Mexico said Gov. Bamberger on arrival here had been Juet $13.40 richer than he was. Neither could he speak English, except one word, yes, which caused much hilarity among fallow students at school. He felt like Gov. Bamberger with regard to education. Gov. Larraxolo recalled the history of New Mexico down to 181. Previous to that, from 147, the natives had don6 what they could for schools which was very little. He told of establishment of two denominational schools, which practically was the only work for many years. In the lack of such federal aid as has been given to the Philippines, ths local authorities established schools upwards of 25 years ago. In the cities these have worked oat successfully but the difficulty met with In rural schools the Spanish speaking populationamong were Ifiiff. He told some very Interesting as a personal history school teacher of El Paso county, Texas.'' Corporations Foot Bill. Gov. Sproul of Pennsylvania said that his state has no atate tax on real estate, the corporations to his corporation-ridden state footing the bill. The salary question became pressing. Normal school attendance was dropping off. Increases in salaries have been allowed, contributed largely from a $6,500,600 state fund alone, of about 10 per cent In teachers' salaries. The large districts are able to take care of themselves. The rural school lem la a large one find a new.probstats superintendent. Dr. Thomas E. Finnegan., from New York was named state superintendent at $12,000 a year. Rural consolidation, free tion of pupfl and abolitiontransportaof schools of not more than 10 pupils, are features of ths new Pennsylvania program. Vocational Work. Governor Campbell asked for experience to part time education, which has now passed In both Utah and Arizona; and as to extension of vocational to rural schools. Arizona Istraining taking this work beyond the high schools and Into rural schools. Governor Allen told of teacher training work to normal achol thus extending vocational work to the rural Rhools. These schools do not get direct assistance from the state save to organ -- atioi by extension work from the, stats colleges. , Kansas baa tried out night schools and voluntary part time schools, but has ha better success with the former. Governor Olcott wished every school child in the United States could have heard Governors Bamberger and Larraxolo. He also said the first educator Oregon ever had is W. J. Kerr, president of the Oregon Agricultural college, now second only to Ames, Iowa college. Gov. Frazier said that In many states the rural echool has not hsd with the equal opportunity schools.. North Dakota Is turning city Us from the money high schools to ths rural schools. The state has the largest number of consolidated schools of any in the Union, and Is increasing these even thougn' they are costing somewhat more than the former system. Big Governor of Little State li Last Arrival Among Chief Executives One of the biggest governors of one of the llttlest states Is ths most recent and last arrival to the governors conference. Gov. John G. Townsend. Jr-- . nearing the six foot mark to height, arrived from , Delaware, next to ths smallest state to the Union,- last night. He was one of the busiest men In the Hotel Utah lobby before going to the conference session, over which he waa to preside. "Everything is prosperous out our way, he stated. "We have a new school code which we believe is the last word to such matters. Our workmen's compensation law Is working out most satisfactorily. We have already tried out prohibition to most of our counties for some time and have . found it worked out most successfully. V. Townsend does not believe eral investigation can remedy the high cost of living to a great extent, bnt like many of the executives attending the conference, he lays stress on the principle that' increased production will be the big cure ail for, present food crisis.

The pole will be christened nhorlTyand installed in a permanent place at Camp RoberC. Gemrnell. A more enthusiastic band of youngsters has seldom if ever been seen to the city than the troop which arrived last evening over the Orem line from the five-da- y outing in Provo canyon. Not one accident happened to mar the pleasures of the hike and the boys and scout leaders all declared that the trip haa been one grand time from beginning to end. The boys named their own camp thefirst on Provo bench. Camp Plummer, for Dr. Charles G. Plummer, who accompanied the expedition as director of hiking, nature work and camp physician; the second In honor of Oscar A.

Ninety-fiv- e of the party made the trip to the top of Utah's famous peak, Mt. Timpanogos. and 7$ of (he party went out to the flagpole on the mountain. The boys all stood the big climb remarkably well and even, the scout men declare, their elders in scaling the glacier peak. The entire party haa arrived home, with glowing tribute to the commissary department. to charge of Theodore Schoenfeldt with R. C. Jackson of .ths National Guard as camp cook and Ralph Barnes, Harold Wagner and Harschel Lund as scout assistants. Meals were served cafeteria style and Included the best of out-docooking. Two watermelon busts and one candy treat were also enjoyed. The men accompanying the party, in addition to Mr. Kirkham, Dr. Plummer and Mr. Morris, were D. E. Hammond, to charge of sanitation and athletics; T-- A. Schoenfeldt, commissary; J. D. Giles, camp singing; y. A. Cutler, rolls and records; J. E. Walquist, A. Fairbanks, A. J. Hoggan. B. T. Lange.

Both vocamost men were enthusiastic over tional the educational value of scout craft at worked out In the camp. The five days were brim full of journeys Into the haunts of wild birds, flowers and trees, with special attention paid to camera exploits and map making. Make Map of Country. Under the direction of Mr. Lange-aengineers map was made from Salt Lake City to Timpanogos and return; a blue priht of it will be made for the scout council office. There was swimming, setting up exercises each day, salute to the flag, and story telling about the nightly camp fire. The trip waa made exactly on schedule and the entire program as outlined was. carried out. Sunday morning special exercises were held, about 16 fnen giving short talks to the boys to from $ to $ minutes on the scout cods of Duty to God and A Scout must be reverent and other klpdred scout During tbs encampment, Mr. topic Jackson demonstrated to the boys ths sounding of taps and reveille on the bugle. The entire party were pleasantly surprised by the donation by W. C. Orem of $25 toward the trip and they the courtesy shown the also praised party --by the Orem line to bringing them to and from Provo. So successful the trip proved that scout men unhesitatingly declare that a precedent has now been established and that the Timpanogos hike will bs followed by others of equal Interest. .dats, Thursdays, Saturdays and Fun-d- as The changes allowed by. the com- -' mission were made In view of the fact that ths nights ars becoming longer and would probably make obedience to the regulations more convenient to F.mpIoyees Lay Down Tools many residents of the city. . The recommendation was concurred in after a report had been submitted to the board by H. K. Burtqn, superwhich intendent of waterworks; showed that the average daily conAug. sumption for the period between 3 and Aug. 16 inclusive was 27.623.-00- 0 T. gallons, and that of this 100, 000 leavwas drawn from ths reservoir ing that from the canyon streams st 20,722,000, sn unusually small amount for this'lime of ths yesr. It was explained that continued enforcement of the restrictions is necessary If the city is to have enough water to carry It over the next month and have a small supply In the stSrags reservoir for use during the freezing period, which Is deemed necessary as a safeguard In the lightest peat When Blanket Increase of $1 Per Day is Refused. 100 1 APPROXIMATELY employed r shops It Lakq walked from their Jobs, this morning because of the fsl)ure ef the company' officials to grant a blanket Increase in wages of It per dayr according to F, 8. Dunn, secretary and business agent of the Boilermakers union. Ths demand for the increase was mads several weeks ago, union officials say., and haslieen ignored. The high cost of living ta given by the men as ths reason for their demand A request for a similar Increase to pay has been made by all machinist moulders, tool maker makers and helper and otherpattern members of ail metal trades craft union officials declare, and ths members of these unions are liable to walk out fit any time as their demands have not been granted. If this general walkout oo-clabor men say, more than 700 men will be included among the strik. ers. The present strike of the boilermakers and the proposed one of the other crafts will not affect the employees st ths railroad shops, union officials say, as ths men belong to different organization Receive Per Day. At the present time, union officials any, ths boilermaker machinist tool maker and pattern makers members of other metal tradeo crafts receive $6 for eight hours work in ths local contract shop AU helpers are paid $4.25 for sight hour Uniofi men argue that It is impossible for them to live and support their families on them wages st the pres- ent high cost of living. The shop most seriously affected by the walkout Is the Balt Lake Boiler A Sheet Iron Work About 50 men are out at this plant. The other 60 now out are employed at various other contract shops of ths city. Officials of ths different companies affected said that It was impossible to say st this time what action would be taken regarding the matter. They declared that fhey realized that the high cost of living is affecting everyone, but said that present business conditions would not justify an Increase In the wages of their employees. The general manager of one shop said he looked for strikes and troubls all over the country until the high cost of living is reduced. "Profiteering, from the producer to the retailer. Is causing most of ths labor unrest to ths country by keeping the prices of commodities up, this man said, and a reduction to the cost of living is ths only thing that will bring about a normal state of affairs." -- ed es Utah Fighters Return From Overseas Service A dispatch from New York names the foiiewt- -- t- -. men as having arrived from France: .
