No MORE POLITICS
INSTATE schools
STATE BOARD TAKES SCHOOLS
OUT OF POLITICS.
A Much NEEDED reform
Old System Of Yearly Appointments
Has Long Been Butt of Much
Criticism.

oklahoma city July ga body
blow to politics in state schools was
delivered in resolution Of the state
board OF EDUCATION made public
Wednesday tayoring the policy OF
service by appontees to school Of
flccs during good behavior rather
than for n term Of ono year as has
been tho practice in the past Teh
resolution which passed unanimously
was in substance as follows:
THE state board Of education be-
believes that the annual appointment
Of instructors and employees in the
state institutions is not conductive to
good service nor to the best interest
Of the institutions The board Of edu-
cation further declares itself to favor
the policy Of making all appoint
mcnts for indefinite periods Of time
providing that after any person has
served two years to the satisfaction
Of the board his or her appointment
is presumed to be permanent"
Scott Glenn Of Shawnee member
Of the state board introduced the
resolution.
Ever since the Inauguration Of the
Haskell administration the cry Of
Take the schools out OF politics" has
been heard through the state and
with good cause, Almost at the be-
ginning OF state government, Presl-
dent David II, Boyd and about half
Of the faculty Of tho State University
were displaced for reasons political,
as was openly admitted. SO barefaced
was this moyo on the part Of the
Haskell administration that IL be-
come even a national issue with the
caustic criticism OF the Haskell
method offered by Dr. Lyman ABB
bott in the outlook shortly after a
trip to oklahoma. Aroused by DR..
Abbotts criticism, Dean Prltchett of
the Carnegie foundation organization
made special trip TO the state and
In his report to the committee severe
ly condemned the method employed
by the Haskell board Of regents.
From that time down to the lncep-
tlon OF the Cruce administration the
movement for elimination Of politics
from the state educational instltu-
tlons has steadily grown in strength.
Governor CrUe has stood for It con-
sistently and insisted that the state
board Of education adopt such a pol
ley as IL indicated by the resolution
announced Wednesday. If the board
carries out It's policy thus laid down
the faculties tho members appointed
for the coming year, will hold prac-
tically permanent positions, depend
ing on good behavior The various
presidents will be judges Of good be-
havior on the part Of the faculty
members and the board Of education
the judges Of the good service rend-
cred by the various heads Of schools.

TWO SENATOR'S TAKE A RAP AT

Washington, July 5,-The right of
President Taft to negotiate the Can
adian reciprocity agreement and to
send it in completed form to Congress
for enactment and to defend and ad-
yocate 1t in stump speeches, was
questioned I'm the Senate today by
Senator Burton Of Ohio at the con-

agreed at the conclusion OF today's
session to sit daily at IL o'clock and
it Is expected the sessions will con-
tinue until o'clock. Senator PEN
rose advocated session at 10 o'clock
But the Democrats who favored the
bin thought this would DE taken as
means of hasty action. The oppon-
ents Of the measure will endeavor to
make the advocates take the floor
in the longer days Of debate that are
to follow.
Senator Burton's speech followed
criticisms by Senator Cummlns Of
Iowa, early in the day Of the speech
made by Mr.. Taft at Indianapolis.
Senator Cummins said he believed IT
was better for the President to try
to mold the public by speeches than
for him to use the power of the
Presidents office to pass the bill
through Congress, but he criticized
the Indiana speech in which the
President said the Canadian agree
ment would not reduce tho cost Of

BRUSSELS, Belgium, July 5.-The
first International steel congress,

A program calling for worldwide

according to a cablegram today, stat
ed that his condition has improved.
Mr.. Gates, shortly after his arrival
in Paris, took to his bed, cancelled all
Of his engagements and was the sub,
iect for consultation Of several French
specialists. His age, his tremendous
activities stretching over the greatest
period in the worlds financial history
and other facts incline Chicago bust
