Navy and Mnrine corns PAY

Representative Foss, the chairman OF
the House Naval Committee. has report
ed from that committee the bill which IN
creases the pay of the commissioned per-
sonnet, active and retired of the navy
and Marine Corps. together with the pay
OF the enlisted marines and the pay OF
passed" midshipmen. who, under the
provisions of the measure. will receive
the pay and allowances Of second lieu
tenants Of the army-a most just arrange
ment There is necessity back Of this
bill which has brought It to the present
status. and there ought 10 be no difficulty
IN obtaining the approval of the House
and Senate 10 a measure which under
takes to do simple justice in the way of
compensation OF members OF the navy
and Marine Corps personnel
1t seemed unfortunate that the original
plan of having one bill for the increase
OF the pay OF the army, navy, Marine
Corps, and Revenue Cutter Service should
have been separated in the way il has.
requiring three Or four independent prop
ositions. but probably out OF the legis-
lative shuttle will come something which
will adjust the Inconsistencies in pay
which now exist IN the various services.
With Congress expressing a liberality in
the matter OF pensions, even 20 the extent
OF seriously investigating the ACCESSIBILITY
OF creating a volunteer retired list which
would cost the government SIS, 100000 d
year in addition TO the present pension
budget ii would seem only fair that
those who are engaged in the defense Of
their country to-day should be adequate
~ paid for the service they render. the
hardships they undergo, and the perils
with which they are confronted.
Service pay should be on the basis OF
equality Naval officers should have the
pay and allowances of corresponding
grades Of the army. There should be no
distinctions which invite discomfort and
contribute 10 discrimination which Is NOT
fair. Those who have been instrumental
In seeking an adjustment Of the pay Of
the navy and Marine Corps, such as Rep
resentative Foss and Pay Inspector T. ].
Cowie, L. s. N, who has been of valu-
able assistance in the compilation OF
statistics and the preparation Of state
ments. are entitled TO abundant credit

Chicago Board of Education Re-

From the Chicago Record Herald.
BY the significant vote OF IS 10 3 the
Chicago school board has decided TO re
form altogether the fraternities and so
cieties under its Jurisdiction. Exclusion
from various privileges and honors hav-
ing proved insufficient the heroic remedy
OF total prohibition. with suspension as
the penalty for disobedience, is 10 be tried
after September l.
IL is undeniable that the secret Eocie-
ties, by their obstinacy and unreasonable
ness, have brought this radical action or
themselves The school board has GER
tainly been patient. deliberate. and con-
siderate The question has been under
discussion for a number OF years. and
educational opinion has been thoroughly
canvassed. II is the firm opinion Of the
superintendent and the majority Of the
local principals and teachers that the
secret societies in the high schools are
positively harmful 10 the Intellectual and
moral phases OF public education-that
they are subversive OF school discipline
and school standards. Moreover. the
movement against them is general. Sew
eral states have had 20 legislate them out
or existence, and the courts OF Washing
ton and Minnesota have sustained very
drastic action by boards OF education. Illi-
nois and Chicago have thus had the bene-
nj OF the discussion and experience Of
many other American communities in
dealing with the problem.
