BILLS.

1t now seems likely that half a doz-
viii be introduced a: the special SEES
sion Of congress-. Carter Glass of Vir-
2inia will introduce into the house a
bill clothed with the endorsement OF
til" administration. Senator Weeks
of Massachusetts has announced tia
he will introduce the National None
tary Commissions bill, commonly
known as the "Aldrich BILL Senator
i.AFollettc. progressive. will have a
bill Of his own. modelled. it is said. af-
ter the Monetary Commissions plan,
but differing from it in important par
ticulars. Former Congressman FOw-
Ter Of New Jersey will. have a bill
which he has drawn up introduced
into the House. Senator Hitchcock
Of Nebraska has a bill. There may be
others.
OF them all, it is likely that the
Glass bill will receive the first and
the most serious attention. 1t will
have the support, unless reports are
fallacious, of President Wilson, and
therefore Of the democratic majority.
1t is the result of long and patient
study, and of an inquiry at which the
leading economists, bankers and bust,
ness men Of the country" expressed
their opinions.
1t is not likely. in view Of the VIC.
lent opposition aroused, that the al
drich plan will have much attention,
whatever its merits or dement's. The
details of Senator LaFOllette's meas.
ure are not well enough known to
permit Of free discussion and other
bills are all likely to be s%idetracked.
Whatever bill is adopted, and how.
ever it may be modified in debate, the
whole country hopes that it will be
sound; and the whole country will
watch the proceedings with eager
eyes. =

Of STATE TO
OBSERVE 18th Of May

! There is a national movement on
foo, for the observance By the schools
OF the United States of May Is as
peace day. The following letter is
being sent out by the office OF the
superintendent of public instruction
and will explain the idea:
superintendent, Principals and
Teachers:
"The American School Peace Lea
que has requested that this letter be
sent to you calling your attention to
the desirability of observing the 18th
of May in the schools as Peace Day.
This day has been observed in the
schools Of the country since 1900,
| when Honorable George II. Martin,
then secretary of the state board of
education of Massachusetts, sent to
the superintendent Of the state a rec
concentration for appropriate eXer-
cises to emphasize the blessings OF
peace, to show the superiority Of arbi-
tration over war, and to eXaalt the
brotherhood of nations.
"On the Eighteenth Of May, a day
concentrating the opening or the
Hague Peace Conference in 1899, a
peculiar opportunity is afforded for
instilling into the minds OF the young
the great laws Of brotherhood that
were in the thoughts OF our fOrefath-
crs. Permit me to urge you to set
aside on hour or two in your schools
On the 18th of May to emphasize the
great benefits that would accrue to the
nations of the earth by an adoption
of the policy, recommended by The
Hague Peace Conference, of adjusting
d"isagreements among nations without
resort to war.
The Peace Day Bulletin, contain
ing appropriate material for the OBJ
servance of the 18th of May, compiled
by Mrs. Fannie Fern Andrews and
published by the Federal Bureau OF
Education, will be issued this year for
the second time. Copies of this Bull
letin, to the number required by our
teachers, can be obtained for about
forty dollars per thousand directly
from the Superintendent Of Docu-
ments at Washington, D. c., or by
addressing Mrs. Fannie Fern Andrews,
Secretary of the American School
Peace League. 405 Marlborough ST.,
Boston, Mass. Last year between forty
and fifty thousand of the Peace Day
Bulletins we're purchased and diStrib-
utcd to teachers.
In order to MAKE the exercises most
profitable and uniform throughout the
country, the American School Peace
League will send free, upon request,
a package of literature to every teach
err dealing with the International
peace movement. All requests for
such literature. and information con-
corning the prizes offered by the Lea
que, can be obtained by addressing
Mrs. Andrews.

ton bills. However, it is now stated
that he will not refuse to sign the
bill If re.passed in the form in which
Mr.. Taft vetoed it. Before believing
this, We shall wait 70 see it done; but
our Judgment is clear that such an act
would b" a great mistake. Arguments
have been made. and have perhaps
SOME force, that the original intent Of
the law was not to include working.
men and farmers. In that case, and
the law be amended. or more clearly
defined, 50 as to do the thing in an or
DERBY way. The device Of a rider on
the Sundry civil bill is an attempt to
do BY ~indireCtiOn what could not be
accomplished directly. 1t would be
difficult to come Il openly in con.
grcsS and maintain that acts which
ar" oppressive and criminal in the
Of rich men and corporations, are
not mcre!! innocent. but laudable if
prHrticcd by laboring men or farmers.
We do not know how President Will
son could squar" such a discrimina-
zion between classes with mis- asser.
tion in his Inaugural that the great
striving Of his administration would
be to do justice.

Turner's Carelessness.

Perhaps the most prolific painter who
ever lived was the great Turner. When
he died his house in Queen Anne
street, which he had not occupied for
a long time. was found to be full Of
masterpieces all going to rack and ruin.
Even the famous "Crossing the Brook"
one of the priceless treasures Of the
National gallery in Trafalgar square.
was there. with large pieces Clipped
off it. Many Of Turner's masterpieces
which he~had refused to sell for Glove
or money were almost ruined by the
damp coming from defective windows
and ceilings. There we're. besides the
oil paintings, literally thousands OF
water color drawings "chuking about
the place." any one Of which would
draw a little fortune at this moment
from the pocket of IN American mil
lionaire. BY his will he left them all
to the nation. -London Spectator.

Speed Of Flying Ducks.

How fast do ducks fly? is Il question
that sportsmen have long debated. A
correspondent of Forest and Stream
throws some definite light on it. Bust
ness requires him to ride frequently
on a railroad in New York state that
skirts a large lake. Wild fowl, startled
by the train. will sometimes fly for a
long distance parallel to the track ut a
speed the same as that Of the train:
hence it was easy. by timing them and
getting the speed rate of the train from
the conductor. to learn how fast they
were going. The rate varied from for,
ty-seven miles an hour to a little over
fifty. The belief Of 'gunners that ducks
sometimes travel ut the rate of a mile
Il minute is therefore not far from the
truth.

OBJECTION TO RIDER.

Very positive statements were made
in Washington recently that Persi-
dent Wilson is not adverse to having
labor unions and farmers organiZa-
tons exempted from the scope of the
antitrust law. 1t is proposed to ac-
complish this by a "rider' on the
Sundry Civil bill, specifically forbid
ding the Department of Justice to
use against such bodies any of the
money appropriated for prosecution
under the Sherman law. For having
such a rider, President Taft vetoed
the bill at the last SESSION of Con-
gress; and his course was upheld by
the majority of sober newspapers and
Of thinking citizens. President Will
son had not disclosed his attitude to-
wards this legislation, but he was un-
derstood to have expressed strong op-
position to the whole plan of legislat-

G E r MAN CONTINUATION
SCHOOLS.

Germany does not allow her boys
and girls to enter blind alley EN-
ulOvmentS if she can held it.. TN"
German continuation school system
takes hold of the boy OF fourteen or
fifteen as SoOn as he finishes the ele-
mentary school and prepares him for
some particular trade or business.
What the work Of these vocational
schools means in the sun total OF
8 German industrial efficiency and So
cial progress is well indicated in a
bulletin on "Prussian Continuation
Schools" just published by the United
States Bureau OF Education. The in.
formation was obtained from Amer.
lean consuls located in important Ger
man cities.
In Magdcbnrg boys completing TIL"
common school are assisted by the
school authorities in securing dcsir-
able situations, and are required to
attend the continuation schools while
employed. There are classes for ba-
kers, butchers, BARRIERS, walters. paint
ers, decorators, blacksmiths, tailOrs,
cabinetmakers, and in fact for any
other occupation in which it is prac-
ticable for a boy to engage. Even if
the boy does not aspire to be a skilled
workman, but is content to become a
street cleaner. house servant, mes
Senger, or to engage in any other form
OF unskilled labor, 4he is nevertheless
required to spend three years in the
continuation school.
In Erfurt and other Prussian cities
employers are compelled by law to
excuse their employees for the lesson
hours without loss of pay, for four to
six hours a week. Furthermore. the
employers pay the tuition fees in
these industrial schools, amounting to
about $50 per year for an apprentice
or 81 for unSkilled workers. The main
financial bu-den is met by the munic-
ipality. with some aid from the state.

ADVERTISING AND THE FLORAL PARADE

Less than two months remain before the Flor
Parade of 1913. The automobile section com
mittee is hard at work trying to secure entries.
To induce a large number of autoowners to put
in cars, the committee has decided to allow the
use of cards and small signs giving the names of
entrants, even if an approach is made to adver-
Using matter. The Star. Bulletin is not in favor
of turning the annual mid Pacific carnival into
an advertising medium, but in this case we think
the decision of the committee is correct if the
signs are restricted in size and not allowed to
detract from the beauty of the decorated cars
design.
1t has been increasingly difficult for the past
two or three years to secure entries in the auto
and float sections. Apparently there are few
owners of machines who will enter the parade
for public-spirited purposes. There must be
some inducement. of more powerful nature.
The Floral Parade management faces the alter
natives of either refusing all advertising matter
nd securing a pitifully small entry list, or al
lowing the use Of names and advertising cards
and stimulating the entries. The community has
no valid protest if the committee has chosen the
latter course, for the experience of the past
shows the folly of depending on autOOwners to
put in their cars merely to help along public
undertaking. The committee has another very
good reason for making this decision, and that
is to give the spectators a clearer idea of the
Identities of the cars. a point that will bc much
appreciated4
