Under stnte Control.

Representative Jenkins, Of Wisconsin,
chairman of the House Committee on
judiciary made the following statement:
Primarily it might be said the entire
school question is under the absolute con-
troll Of the State. by virtue Of the police
power, unless interfeTed with by the
treaty making power. Unquestionably, q
treaty can be made covering and includ-
ing the question, but it is not for me to
say whether the treaty does or does not
cover and include it. That is for the ad-
ministration 10 determine until the courts
decide.
There is no sense or justification in
talking war. 1t is worse than silly. 1t
