Washington, Oct. 2S.-With Con-
gress tied up by lack of a quorum in
both houses, cotton belt representa-
tives tonight made a vain appeal to
President Wilson for aid to compose
the situation by securing cotton re-
lief legislation and clearing the way
for the long delayed final adjournment
of the session.
After again blocking adjournment
by obstructive tactics, the cotton re-
lief supporters went into conference
late in the day and decided to ap-
point a committee to wait upon the
President. The President, however,
when asked for an interview, stated
he would be busy with an important
state department conference until he
left Washington at midnight and
would, therefore, be unable to meet the
committee.

President for Pittsburg, where he will

Villa Must Go too

This explanation of Gen. Carran-
za's position, made informally at
Mexico City, was received by the
American government here today.
General CarranZa indicated his will
lngness to have the convention re-
quest that both he and Gen. Villa give
way to a neutral for the Provisional
Presidency
In the meantime, however, official
reports to the state department told
of the advance northward of several
thousand of Carranza troops. This
was explained by Carranza's repre-
sentatives as intended. not for pur-
poses of attack, but precautionary de-
fence in case the convention came to
no agreement and Villa moved his
forces southwark.

VII SONS POLICIES
HAVE BEEN ENDORSED

Secretary of State Bryan re-
turned to Washington last Mon
day from his campaign trip to the
west In formal statement rela-
tive to the results OF the recent
elections he said:
1.-The election of 1914 cannot be
considered otherwise than as an
endorsement of the president and
his policies l am 30 convinced OF
the merits of the remedial meas
ures enacted under the presidents
leadership and of the righteous
ness of his foreign policy that l
expected the voters to support the
candidates who represented his
views. There were a number of
causes which operated against our
party namely the effort of the
benefciaries of prohibition who
out of resentment sought to make
the tariff law obnoxious, the dis
turbed condition caused by the
European war and the fact that
the excellent laws passed by con-
gress had not had time to prove
their worth. Then, too, more Pro-
gressives returned to the Republi-
can party than we expected. This
alone accounted for most of the
Republican gains in the house Of
representatives. The victery, how
ever, was sufficiently complete to
show that the people are with the
president.
THE gains in the senate are es-
pecially gratifying-not a single
Democrat defeated for reelection
and three senators taken from the
Republicans. There is every rea-
son to believe that the administra-
tion will grow in popularity as the
laws enacted by congress become
effective and Democratic policies
bear fruit"

FEDERAL PROBE.
BRINGS RESULTS

The investigation into election
affairs in Huerfano and Las An
imas counties, which was begun
by United States District Attor-
ney Tedrow and other federal OIL
cials several weeks ago and is still
in progress, is no doubt response
BILE for the failure of those coun-
ties to show as heavy election re-
turns as anticipated. Heretofore
these counties have been regarded
as Republican strongholds, the
Democratic candidates usually be-
ing showed under by Republican
votes. This year Edward Heating
received plurality in these ooun-
ties in his race for congress.
1t is believed that Keating's sur
prising showing was the direct re-
suit of the presence of the federal
investigators in the district, and
furthermore that it was only the
result of the normal Democratic
vote being permitted to chow itself
for the first time in years. The
investigation will be continued in
definitely.

GAVE A SPLENDID
TALK TO STUDENTS
Continued from Page -

But | insist that this word 'voca-
ton be used in its literal sense and
want to hold TO this right from the
start with you. Each one of you has
calling. You may not know what
il is now but there is work in this
world for each one of you or the
Creator would not have placed you
here. He has plan, a great plan
in this great world in which we live.
and the great question for you to
determine is, Where in this great
world am l to fit, where am l To find
my calling?' 1t is a serious question,
a most serious question.
Some people think it is foolish for
us TO talk about this TO boys and girls
of the seventh and eighth grades or
even i'm the High School. They say
What do they know about it any
how This is just the trouble. What
is the school for if it is not to shape
them for the life they are going to
live. In the past we teachers have
been rather narrow minded people.
All we know is school, and then we
pretend to prepare the boys and girls
who do not go on with higher educa-
ton to go out in the world, and we
teachers know mighty little about it,
to tell the truth. So the schools have
most serious problem before them.
How they are going to prepare you
boys and girls for the things you are
going to do and not for the things we
teachers did.
Several years ago when / consider
ed working the plan of vocational
direction in the school / questioned
531 boys in the school, questioned
them very closely, got just as positive
answers, just as certain answers as /
could from that group Of boys had
questioned a great many more but /
threw out a number as not being
answers TO the question, and out of
the 531 there were only 240 in the
high school who had any idea what
ever what they were going to do. They
did not know at all, great proportion
OF them, and these 240 when you
came to analyZe their answers about
20 per cent of them thought they were
going to be engineers, and they did
not know what an engineer was. AL
together il proved to me beyond any
question or doubt that we needed per-
haps first Of all in the high school
a systematic way TO direct boys and
girls in their education toward some
thing definite, and we have gotten to
