Boxes containing so pounds of the

CONSIDERING THE DETAILS.
Framer of Civil Service Retirement
Bill Would Avoid Mistakes.

In the belief that no time will be
saved by hurried preparation Of a
civil service retirement bill for presen-
tation to Congress, Andrew w. Mckee.
president of the new National Associa-
ton of Civil Service Employees, has
postponed consideration of the matter
until he returns to the city in the latter
part of this month. He will devote his
time until he leaves tomorrow to the
consideration of minor details of launch
ing the new organization. Permanent
headquarters have been established in
The Star building, and from there the
work Of the association will be directed.
It was the first intention, said Mr.. Nc
Kee, to prepare the bill the day the
committee met and send it to Repre-
sentative James A Hamil of New Jer-
sey for presentation in Congress.
However we realized that there was
much more important legislation to be
considered at the present extra session
Of Congress-" he said. which necessarily
would preclude any consideration Of the
retirement bill. 1t was decided that the
committee having the formulation Of the
bill in charge could produce a better
measure if they were given more time,
and as nothing could be saved by rush.
ing it up to Congress, it was determined
to postpone 1t for a few weeks"

Retiring Head Of Board of
Education Is the Honored
Guest at Reception.
RECEIVES GOLD WATCH
AS TOKEN OF ESTEEM
School Officials, Teachers and EN-
ployes Unite in Adopting Strong
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS..

Tribute to James F. Oyster, men,
Der of the board of education for nearly
seven years. and president Of the board
during nearly all of his service was paid
by thousand school officials, school
teachers and other school employees and
by representatives of the Board of Trade
the Chamber of Commerce and the SUI
preme Court of the District at a testimo-
NAL reception held at the New Willard
Hotel last evening. The occasion was the
retirement of Capt. Oyster from the
board
Addresses lauding the work which Capt.
Oyster has done during his service on the
board. and praising the ideals for which
he has stood. were made by Justice Job
Barnard of the District Supreme Court,
Henry p Blair, the new president of the
board; DR.. William M Davidson, super
intendent OF schools, and A. r. Stuart,
formerly superintendent of schools and
now the director of intermediate instruc-
ton.
Mr.. Stuart presented resolutions in be-
half of those connected with the schools
and DR.. Davidson made the speech of
presentation, delivering to the retiring
president gold watch on behalf of the
officials. teachers and other employees of
the schools.
Capt. Oyster was visibly affected by
the complimentary words bestowed upon
him and by the other tributes in the way
OF personal best wishes given him from
time to time during the course Of the
evening.
Mr.. Justice Barnard declared that the
judges who first selected Capt. Oyster as
member of the board of education had
never regretted their choice. I'VE are
very sorry he cannot continue in that
capacity" said the speaker
MIR. Stuart in presenting the resolutions
addressed his auditors as "fellow-lovers
of Capt. Oyster He declared that the
resolutions were written only so they
might be of record, and that they were in
reality much too cold to express what
was in the hearts of those who were re-
sponsible for them.
1t would seem a strange thing for a
man who had lived with a loving wife for
seven years to write to her one day and
say. Resolved, That / love you or to
address those same words to his chill
dren. And so it is with these resolu-
TONS"
He declared further: 1--WE are going to
have Capt Oyster with us in public life,
maybe in happy, higher position We
are going to have this man with us and
behind us as long as he lives and we
teach school,"

Heavy Blow to Industry.

Now. If sugar is imported to American
refineries at low duty. and eventually
with none at ALL says Representative
Willis, it will hit the beet sugar industry
a heavy blow. and perhaps put it OFT of
business. This would be what the trust
has been looking for.
Along with the complaint of the Lou
isiana cane sugar growers the Ohio beet
growers are besieging Congress to MAIN
tain protective tariff on their crops
And 1t is fairly safe to predict that
democrats from both states will vote
against the present proposition of i cent
a pound on sugar for three years, and
nothing at all thereafter.
Representative Heating of Colorado to-
day received the following telegram:
Eight hundred thousand sugar users
of Colorado heartily indorse your stand
for free sugar. and have SO advised Pres
ident Wilson. Keep UP the fight to free
Colorado and the nation from the grip of
a criminal monopoly.

Discussion of Marketing and
Farm Credits at Meet
ing in Chicago.
SYSTEM OF COOPERATION
AN AID TO AGRICULTURE
Plan Outlined for Reform in Bank
ing and Currency of
the Country.

CHICAGO, April 10.-The third and
final day of the first national conference
on marketing and farm credits brought
forth expert opinion regarding the finan-
cial needs of the farmers as interesting
as those heretofore heard on the subject
Of marketing.
Among the speakers were financiers.
educators and editors. One of the most
interesting papers heard from the stand
point of farm credits was by Herbert
Myrick Of Springfield, Mass, president
Of several weekly papers, especially inter-
esting to farmers. The author was not
present and the paper was read for him.
Some Of the foremost speakers Of the day
were B. F. Harris Of Champaign, ILL.,.
former president of the Illinois Bankers
Association; George Woodruff, president
of the First National Bank of Joliet, Ill. !:
Homer c. Pierce dean Of agriculture Of
the Ohio State University, and w. G.

Mr. Myrick's paper on Comparative
Finance set forth, with other things.
the following:

applied to agriculture, organized CO.
operation will enable farmers to finance
themselves. improve distribution, reform
marketing and promote their general
welfare. Therefore. adequate finance for
farming Is the basic need today and
hence the American farmers now unitedly
demand:
First. that whatever reform of cur
rency and banking enacted by Congress,
it shall provide facilities for financing the
farm and small industries relatively equal
to the facilities afforded the manufacture
ing, commercial and business interests.
Second, that such reform shall au-
thorize and encourage the cooperation of
savings and thrift, credits and loans, by
people of limited means-farmers, work
ers-in other vocations and producers
generally and the wise use of their COM
bined resources by these producers them
selves. Thus may farmers enjoy a more
equitable proportion of the wealth they
create. Only in this way can the nation

Resolutions Adopted.

After a brief Introduction, the resolu-
tons declare:
Capt. Oyster has given seven of the
best years of his mature manhood in
uninterrupted and devoted service to the
public schools of the Capital city in all
their varied interests. Parents, teach
ers and pupils alike have been the bene-
ficiaries Of his self-sacrifcing labors.
He has frequently announced as the
governing principle of his trusteesfip this
brief platform: The children are en-
titled to the best we have. and 1t Is for
them and them alone we are seeking to
upbuild the schools
While the teachers and their work
have been very near to his heart he
has always insisted that the children
held the first and warmest place. Never
theless. he has been the constant and
untiring friend of the teachers, always
ready to listen and swift to. champion the
cause that needed assistance

Lectures on Food for Children.

Plain, wholesome food and well regu-
lated meals for school children were
urged by Miss Caroline L. Hunt nu-
triton expert of the Department of Agri-
culture, in an address before the Brook
land Parent-Teachers' Association, at
meeting held at the BrOokland School
last evening. Eating between meals
should be strictly forbidden, she said,
and candy Is Injurious. She advised an
abundance of such food as milk, eggs,
meat, fruit and vegetables.
