No. I'm the matter of criticism, of
course it would be much out OF place
for me to criticise. The board Of edu-
cation is doing the best If can with tho
means it has at its disposal TO provide
the best equipment ana the best quail

NJ. 81 would say IN this regard, If
anything at all, that the paramount
need is for more ToOm-bOth for the
grade school pupils and for the high
school pupils

is new high school building so that
we can provide for Industrial courses

a course that VIII give the boys thor

the girls the groundwork of the domes-
tic science course.

No. IL certainly have not or would
not consider politics or religion IN con-
nection with the appointment of
teacher or other school official.
No. 2.-ConsIdering the mount Of

Will Probe Car Shortage.

The commission probed into the mys-
terry of the annual fall coal shortages
in Utah and Salt Lake. The railroad
companies advance the explanation that
while coal is plentiful the lack of equip
ment cuts the supply away below de-
mand. Car distribution will be studied
by the commission when it meets here
next week. While it is impossible to
draw information from the govern
lnent's attorneys, ii is believed the sub
ject of equipment is to be investigated

panSion possibilities as set forth by Sec

Mr.. Bryan said he heard Secretary Shaw
speak at the afternoon session also on
the question of trade expansion lie said
that Mr. Shaw had presented the situa-
ton in simple manner but took occa-

pleasing manner to cover up their lack
of logic
Mr.. Bryan then read second resolu-
ton affecting trusts. which also. he
said, he wished might be adopted by
the commercial congress at its business
session tomorrow.
This resolution which NJ Bryan said
covered in a general way his hopes re-
garding trust legislation, follows:

terably opposed to private monoDolies
and believing them indefensible and in
tOlerable, faVors the enforcement of ex-
iSting laws and the enactment of such
new laws as may be necessary to protect
industry from the menace offered by
the trusts
Mr. Bryan said he was glad that at
last all people had come to be opposed
to the giving and receiving of rebates.
He spoke of the recent conviction of the
sugar trust for receiving rebates and
attacked the Standard Oil company,
which he declared had built I'D much of
its business by operating in rebates But
legislation was needed he said not only
to prevent railways from granting re-
bates but those other great concerns
from watering their stock
