American than DR.. Charles Eliot
president Of Harvard University,
whose prophecy OF Jewish solidarity

optimistic than my own. DR.. Eliot

Once America slams her doors. the
Crucible will roar like closed fur
mace.
Heaven forbid, however, that the
doors shall be slammed for centuries
yet. The notion that the few mil
lions of people in America have a
moral right to exclude others is mon
strous.
ExelusiVeness Impossible.
ExclusiVeness may have some JUS
tifcation in countries, especially when
old and well populated; but for con-
tinents like the United States-or for
the matter OF that, Canada and Aus
tralia-to mistake themselves for
mere countries is an intolerable in
justice to the rest of the human race.
The exclusion OF criminals is as
impossible in practice as the eXclu-
sion of the sick and alling is un-
Christian. Infinitely more important
were 1t to keep the gates of birth
free from undesirables. As for the
exclusion of the able bodied. whether
illiterate or literate. that is sheer eco

Fortunately. any serious restric-

the stagnation OF many OF the States,

In the interest of economy and eff

mission asks Congress, in its annual
report made public today, to make pro-
vision for a suitable building to house
the commission. Although preferring
building built by the government. the
report states that the commission at

THE pressing need of adequate quar-
tiers for the housing in one building
of all the employees connected with the
work of the commission in Washing
ton, for the reasons Of economy and

in urging the construction by the gov

purpose, or that the commission be

COMBINES VOCATIONAL
AND ACADEMIC WORK

That one of the greatest problems of
vocational education, now being car
ried on experimentally in the public
school system of Washington, has
been solved in the Districts schools is
the belief expressed by officials here
today. Further than this, approval of
the solution has been given by officials
of the school system of other cities.
Briefly stated. the problem and its
solution are about as follows: 1t is de-
sirous in vocational training, which
fits children for certain trade or oc-
cupation, to begin early. One Of the
difficulties met has been that child
in the younger years of his school life
say in the fifth or sixth grade-can-
not tell just how far he may be able
to pursue his education. whether only
through the grade schools or through
the high schools or through college.
Now, if child takes up vocational
training under the plan in operation
in many cities he devotes SO much
time to manual labor and so little to
academic work that should he desire
to enter a higher institution he would
not be qualified to do SO.
Washington's plan, as being worked
between Sd and Az streets southwest,
at present, so arrangeS the child'S
work that he may re-enter the "regu-
lar" school classes at any time, being
fully fitted to do the academic work.
Combines Studies.
This is accomplished by giving the
children sufficient academic training in
conjunction with the trade work to
keep them abreast of their comrades
who may be attending the regular
school classes. Nearly all of the work
now being done at the Smallwood
School is pre-vocational Some actual
work is being done there by pupils
who were formerly at the Wisconsin
Avenue School. the work of that school.

Studies in academic work are being
continued in such a manner. however.
that at the end of the school year the
pupils who are promoted may enter the

schools if they SO desire
Ernest l.. Thurston. superintendent
of schools. said today that If the young
sters show an inclination to follow up
their work the teaching of the trades
will be done in the eighth and ninth
grades of the school, the three lower
grades being devoted to pre-vocational
work.

Aims to Stop Waste.

1.-THE abolition of tho small size docu-
ment envelope will stop members from
using large quantities of them. con-
trary to law, in correspondence. 1t
will stop the wholesale practice of in
viting the public to pitch in for free
public documents. whether or not they
are needed or used. 1t will stop the
aruse of private interests promoting
speeches in Congress. paying for the
printing of large quantities of them
and then using some members en-
velop, folding and Thanking privilege
to send them out; and the curtail
ment of not wanted document printing
will discourage the practice that has
long prevailed of some members frank
ing out any kind of useless document
stuff just to show constituents on the
mailing lists that they are not forgot
ten by their representative in Con-
gress."
The increases, changes, etc, in the
bill are as follows:
Stenographer for joint committee on
printing, 1000: salary of public printer,
from $500 to $4,000 per annum; salary
of medical and sanitary officer, from
$1,000 to $4,000; compensation of job
compositors. from so to So cents an
hour; leave of absence to eighty-tw
