St Paul, Minn., July s-An earnest speech in behalf of the woman edu- cator by President Joseph Swain, rec concentrations for radical changes in the present public school system; dis cussion of a plan for the establishment of libraries in the country district, to which Andrew Carnegie may be the chief contributor, ana activities of convention politicians marked today's session of the National Education asso- citation.
 The auditorium was well filled when President Swain delivered his annual address, which was applauded, partic- ularly by the women delegates, when he made such statements as:
 Pay the teachers living wage.
 Let the women teachers vote
 Provide system of retirement aI- lowances so that teachers will work contentedly.
 Open more supervisory positions to women.
 Chose the best person for a position regardless of sex.
 Philander P. CIaxton, United States commissioner of education, created a surprise at meeting of state super 1ntendents by announcing that Andrew Carnegie had under consideration a plan for the establishment of libraries in country districts that would call for contribution of between S75, ,00O, 900 and $10O. 0o0, ,000 by the steel magnate.
 It was announced unofiicially today that those in favor of simplified spell ing will make no effort to place the matter before the convention this year.

 Mir. Jones was before the committee Tor nearly four hours today to tell about his relations with the Interna- tional Harvester company and the New Jersey Zinc company. both so- called trusts.

 Senator Hitchcock was authorized tp SlVe out the information obtained from Mir. Jones. His report in substance was:
 MT. Jones appeared in answer to the invitation of the committee and was asked questions about his relations to two large business enterprises. one of which was the International Harvester company. now being prosecuted by the government as a trust. Mir Jones said

Jones announced that he was in accord with the policy of the Harvester company at present and said there was no difference of opinion among the directors. He received no compensation, he said, other than the nominal directors fee.
 Nothing to Gain or Lose.

 Prior to 1897, Mir. Jones told tns committee, he owned and was presf- dent Of a zinc company at Mineral Point, Wis, capitalized at 34O00 000 which came to him and his brother iI satisfaction of a debt.

 Parallels the Monroe Doctrine.
 In the present instance the conn ment was regarded by the state de- partment as peculiarly untimely and i'll advised because of the extreme jealousy with which the European powers have guarded the tangled Bal kan problem from the injection of new clements. They consider the ques- ton as one to be dealt with by the European powers alone, their position being precisely that af the United States government in regard to the Monroe Doctrine.
 It was recalled tonight that even in the most desperate phase of the late Balkan war, when the allies were closing in on Constantiuople and many of the diplomatic representatives in that capital were calling upon their governments for help, the six powers, parties to the Berlin conference, in- terposed an effective objection to the appearance of American WarShipS in the Dardanelles.
 Made Personal Investigation in Albania
 It is now known that early in his mission MT. Williams sought to have his powers extended to include AL bania. The state department. however, with it's usual caution, when dealing with questions involving the Balkans, hesitated to lead the way in estab- fishing a diplomatic circle at Durazzo in view of the slight American inter ests there. It did however, consent to MT. Williams earnest request to be allowed to make a personal inyestiga- ton of the Albanian situation and there followed the statements con- tained in his contributions to the Athens newspapers which have led to his resignation.
 MT Williams, who was a member of congress years ago, is a lawyer and was appointed to the diplomatic ser vice from Massachusetts He is a close friend of Secretary Bryan.
