The Master Builders Bill.
iditor of The Evening Star:

To the Editor OF The Evening Star:
If the bill requiring master builders to
take out a license is likely to result in bet
ter buildings in the District of Columbia,
some such measure should be enacted.
There has been considerable shoddy work
done on buildings in the District This
fact is well known to every one who deals
in buildings or has supervision of repairs
Many of the houses built to SELL are
poorly constructed in workmanship and ma
terial especially in those parts which the
casual observer is apt to overlook To make
efficient inspection it is necessary to climb
upon the roof and TO peer into every nook
and corner The more difficult the inspec-
ton. the more necessary 1t is. The care
less builder counts upon the inspectors be-
ing too busy or too lazy to see everything
In many instances private buildings are
erected too hastily. public buildings too
slowly. As licenses are required for SO
many trades. the proposition to require
them for builders should not be hailed as
extraordinary unjust. To prevent favor
itism or monopoly. provision should be made
for the right of appeal from the decision of
the officers granting licenses Thus every
competent builder would be able to obtain
q license. THOMAS w. GILMER

Mr.. Baker of BROOKLYN.

Representative Baker of Brooklyn, the
man who introduced the resolution in Con-
gress for the impeachment Of Paul Morton,
is one Of those singular people who take
pride in being called a crank" Nothing
pleases Mr.. Baker SO much as to have his
attention called to his peculiar views and
eccentric methods He is anti-everything;
he aims to be peculiar, and it is his ambi-
ton to be talked about. For example:
Every member of the House of Representa-
tives has the privilege of nominating cadets
to the academies of West Point and Annap-
oils, and it is quite highly priced as any
official perquisite, but Mr.. Baker, true to
his rule, refused to exercise his right, and
when informed that there were vacancies at
both the military academies for his district
he declined to I'LL them on the ground that
there were no young men in his district
whom he cared to expose to the contami-
mating influences and aristocratic preju-
dices of the cadets. He said he did not be-
lieve in war nor in educating men to fight
He was opposed to all aggressive policies.
and believed that II the government of the
United States would mind its own business
it would have no trouble with other ma
tons; while, if it were attacked, millions Of
freemen would voluneer to defend their flag
and their home. Hence he would make no
nominations for either academy.

JEWISH IMMIGRATION.
Significant Utterances Of President
Woolner in Council Report.

1.-THE overthrow of Russian autocraey will
This was a prophecy made in passing over
the subject of Jewish civil and religious
rights in America by President Samuel
woolner of the Union of American Hebrew
Congregations, in making his report to the
nineteenth council of the organization at
Chicago yesterday. He advised united ef-
fort to oppose possible future immigration
legislation. which might be inimical to jew
ish interests. Speaking Of the work of the
board of delegates on civil and religious
rights President WoOlner said:
'While the Kishenef protest was not
officially the work of our board of dele
gates yet our chairman, Simon Wolf, was
one of the workers who, together with the
late lamented Leo N Levi, framed this
historical document and stirred the Ameri-
can citizens to ndorse it in righteous wrath.
The overthrow of the Russian autocracy
will be the last echo of Kishenef.
More than year ago our board of dele
gates met in Washington to lay before the
President of the United States and the De-
partment of State the continued disregard
on the part of certain foreign governments
of the passport when presented by Ameri-
can citizens of Jewish faith. So successful
has this informal petition been that the
matter has been brought officially before
the new Russian minister of the interior.
from whom the whole world now expects
a favorable recommendation to the car
The Interpretation of the immigration
laws, which often works hardships to Jew
ish immigrants has, through the agency of
Chairman Wolf. often been modified in ia
vor of the victims of religious persecution.
There is no doubt but that the immigration
question will soon require the combined
wisdom of the American Jews to prevent
the framing of national laws which might
prove inimcal to the Jewish immigrant

The new armored cruiser Maryland. in
command OF Capt. W. G. Melvin, one of the
most skilled pilots on the Atlantic coast,
and manned by crew of shipyard ne
chanics. will leave the Newport News (Va.)
shipyard Saturday morning on her first
sea voyage to Boston. where one week
from tomorrow. she will be given her final
acceptance test over the Cape Ann course.
Rapid preparations for the departure
of the Maryland are being made at the
shipyard. The entire crew of over 400 men
has been drafted and they are now pre-
pairing the big fighter for her long voyage.
Provisions for the crew during the trip are
being loaded on the vessel and already her
bunkers have been filed with picked coal
to be used while she IS under force draft
during her speed run. Her great bullying
sides have been painted the traditional

University With Most Students.

The statistical year book for 1905 shows
that the University of Berlin has more stu
dents than any other educational institu-
ton in the world, unless the Moha mmedan
University al Cairo is included in the COM
parison. The latter, however, is not exact
ly what we call a university. for it has~no
organization like those in Europe and the
5 United States. Its faculty are mostly vol
unteer lecturers; there is no formal matric-
ulation for it's students, and it does not pub
lsh catalogue or give diplomas. Each
professor or lecturer has his disciples or
students, who pay him fees if they choose
to and listen while he breaches whatever
learning or doctrine he may desire to i'm
part Any man who has ideas that he
wishes to communicate to his fellow men Is
permitted to use the shelter of the Great
Mosque called university. The United
Presbyterian Missionary Society sends ma
tive preacher there every day to expound
the doctrines of Christianity. 1t is esti-
mated that not less than u 900 students at
tend classes and lectures there. but, as l
have said, no record is kept of them.
AT the University of Berlin 1,1I4 students
are matriculated for the present year and
1880 others are attending lectures by per-
mission, without having formally matricu-
lated. OF these 3,5I2 are studying philos-
ophy and the natural sciences, 1853 law
and Jurisprudence. 1,101 medicine and 1916
theology. The United States is represented
by 123 students.

Useless Papers Stored Away.

This question was up in the British AS
ISOLATION for the Advancement of Science
some years ago. A committee appointed for
an investigation reported that woodpulp
paper was not permanent and that the files
Of periodicals printed upon it could not be
permanently preserved. Certain cynics have
been pleased to say that the sooner most of
the newspaper files decay the better. but the
committee did not express any opinion on
the ethical side of the subject.
The laws of England require two copies of
each newspaper and periodical to be kept
by the British Museum, and they have been
accommodating at such rate that the cellar
and the attic of that institution have been
crowded to overlooking. Librarian Spofford
tells an interesting story of his experience
in going through miles and miles of bound
newspapers over there, not one of which
had ever been examined since it came from
the press. Their accumulation has become
so great that the authorities of the museum
have recently erected a vast warehouse
about seven miles from the city, which is
being rapidly filled with useless newspapers.

1t is a serious question, however, whether
the majority of newspapers are worth pre-
serving. There Is no law requiring their
preservation. The librarian Of Congress
can send his entire stock OF newspaper files
TO junk shop or paper mill tomorrow
morning If he likes, but it has been GUS
tomary since the beginning of the govern
ment to preserve and bind the files of at
least one paper of every principal city, and
the pains which the early librarians took in
this matter have been of great service to
modern historians. Even now the files of
New York, Boston, Philadelphia, Chicago
and foreign newspapers are frequently call
ed for, which Is, of course, practical testi-
mony to their value: but three-fonrths of
the huge volumes in the newspaper section
have never been opened since they came
from the bindery
None of the wood-pulp papers has yet en-
tirely gone to pieces but those which have
been frequently handled are beginning to
show signs of wear. 1t is impossible to tell
how long they will last, but it is evident
that those which were printed a hundred
years ago will outlive the specimens of the
twentieth century. There is no known
method by which the brittle, fiberless wood
pulp paper can be preserved.
