MILLIONS in EXTENSIONS

PHILADELPHIA, July 22.-Plans
now being considered by officials of
the University of Pennsylvania are
expected to'result in the spending of
several million dollars in extension
work in closing portions of several
streets to traffic if the city assents
that fifty-acre concrete arch will be
placed over the tracks of the Penn
sylvania railroad nearby and that a
huge stadium will be constructed.
AT present the university grounds
occupy 116 acres. If the proposed ex-
tension is made hundred acres will
be added to them. The property now
is intersected by a number of streets
and, although much of the territory
southeast of Woodland avenue, near
the Schuylkill river is controlled by
the university, a number of streets
run through it. In the extension plan
1t is proposed to have the portions of
streets south of Woodland avenue
closed to traffic.

STAGE AS CAREER
FOR COLLEGE men
Some Big institutions Include
Dramatic Profession in Vo-
cationaI Training.

What are you going to do?" is the
question heard on many campus on
class day. At Harvard there is
business school, the last of ex-Presi-
dent Elliot's additions. But in Cam
bridge the same old cynical saying
obtains: when in doubt go to the
law school,"
But that is all over now" said
Watson White, who was graduated
from Harvard in 1910, and then spent
two years in that doubtful sphere.
Just before his examinations in
equity this June he suddenly made UP
his mind to go on the stage.
There is no reason why college
man should not regard the stage as a
career" he said. "In London there
are hundreds of men from Oxford and
Cambridge playing important parts.
IT believe" said Mr.. White. that
the college is going to be real train
ing ground for vocations in the
future. When there is immediate ne
cessity of earning a living in highly
specialized world, vocational guidance
should be more specific. At Harvard
there Is now a sort of laboratory for
the stage. which Is sort of adjunct
to Professor George p. Bakers course
In playwriting. of this latter course
Harvard has given the country many
examples-like Edward Sheldon, Allan
Davis and Witter Bynner.
But the addition of department
in elocution for stage training win
now open another career to college
1f ali nr%
types of this training was Robert
Middlemass. And yet for year or
so he wasted his time in commercial
career before he finally made up his
mind that he would take UP the work
for which he was most fitted
Another was Samuel Eliot. who
startled Harvard with his espousel OF
the Socialist cause and tried to get
the authorities to let Emma Goldman.
the anarchistic teacher, speak to the
students. The grandson of the ex-
president of Harvard is now on the
stage in Manchester, England. Ralph
Bunker who taught in the elocution
department, Is in a Broadway pro-
duction."
Watson White is playing in "The
Blindness of Virtue" now touring the
country. He expects to Teturn to
London in the fall.
Another Harvard man who has re-
linqulshed a business career is Doane
Gardiner. 0s. grandson of the late
Bishop of Albany, who is now acting
in England.
Radcliffe College has similar
course and has contributed Miss Mar
ian Gragg to the stage.

LIVE STOCK DUTY
DECE|VES FARMER
So Declares Senator Smoot in
Resuming Argument Against
Tariff Bill.

WASHINGTON, July Ex-senator
Smoot today resumed his argument
against the Underwood-Sim
tariff bill He discussed first the agri-
cultural schedule.
THE provisions of the House bills
he said, ito admit meat, hides. wool
and so forth free, while imposing a
duty on cattle and certain other live
stock, was so clearly an attempt to
deceive the farmers that the majority
party in the Senate Is to be con-
graduated for seeking to make the
provisions more consistent. In doing
this, they have, however, added to
the injury already provided for by
the House, and Instead of making
meats and so forth dutiable the bill
now adds live stock to the free list.
Throttling Competition.
With meats free 1t will help concen-
trate the control of those products
In the hands of what are know as the
beef barons and viii help kill off
small dealers and throttle COMPETE
ton. The expense Of feeding and the
shrinkage of carcass are eliminated
in transporting beef, hence a large
corporation with facilities for inn
porting dressed beef can save a good
deal in labor, feeding and so forth.
When no duty is imposed 1t will be
a discrimination against the farmer
and others raising live stock in this
country.
But If meat and soforth is to be
admitted free 1t is better that the
deception should be done away with
and live stock also allowed to come
In free. Eighty-fve per cent, of the
corn raised in this country Is used
for live stock. The importation of
meats and of live cattle will give a
tremendous advantage to Canada,
Mexico, Argentina and other such
countries at the expense of the Amer
lean producer. 1t will strengthen the
grip of the large packer and will not
in any probability reduce the cost
of meats a particle to the consumer

FRIENDS THINK WITTPENN
HAS GIVEN UP ALL HOPE
Especial to the Newark star.I

JERSEY CITY, N. j., July 22.-
Followers of former Mayor H. Otto
Wittpenn are complaining about his
failure to issue a statement setting
forth his reasons for seeking the
Democratic nomination for Governor.
He has been promising for over a
month to make the statement public.
His followers are beginning to think
that he does not intend going to the
primaries and that this is the reason
he is putting off the official announce
ment of his candidacy.
The action of the Democratic
County Committee, by more than a
two-thirds vote. in resembling its in
dorsement of Wittpenn and making
Governor Fielder its choice for the
nomination has caused many of the
former Mayors supporters to desert
his cause. 1t is evident to them, as
1t is to the adherents of Governor
Fielder, that the Wittpenn boom has
collapsed.
