NORK OF GIRLS
CLUBS IN STATE
A BIG SUCCESS

That the work of the girls clubs
throughout the State during the past
summer has been an unqualified
Success, is apparent from the reports
sent in by the girls of their work,
4 that are being received daily by the
utah Agricultural College. This
work is under the immediate super
Vision of Mrs. Dorius of the College
Faculty, who is assisting Professor
Hogenson, State Leader of Boys and
Girls Club Work.
Possibly the most encouraging
Bgeneral characteristic of the work is
the prevailing high quality. The
5aim has been to increase the gener-
1al efficiency Of the girls along the
various lines of endeavor undertaken
jby the clubs, such as baking, sewing
canning, gardening, and poultry rails
ing rather than produce champions
The following accounts. selected a
random from the many records al
7ready in, are interesting.

she had never held a needle. After
q few lessons, covering short per-
iod, she had made herself school
dress, house apron, two dust caps,
and numerous articles of underwear.
All of this work was of exceptional
quality. A group Of girls at West
point finished both the baking and
sewing projects in one summer.
There are seventeen girls in this
group, ranging in age from IL to
II years. All the work done by the
canning clubs was of high quality.
The number in this work was much
smaller this year than last, due to
the increased cost of fruits and vege-
tables. All kinds of fruits and vege-
tables were canned, as well as many
kinds of meat.
An encouraging aspect of the club
movement is the attitude taken to-
| ward it by the high schools and
grammar schools throughout the
State. Wasatch. Davis. Granite, and
Jordan school districts have all been
allowing school credit for summer
work done in connection with a reg
ularly organized club. This coming
winter all scools in Utah, both high
schools and grade schools, will al
law school credit for the work.
During the past summer, over L.
500 girls have completed thor pro-
jects in the various clubs.

Great Problem for Yuan.

Picking, April 80 Correspondence of
The Associated Press. Yuan Shih-kai
and his advisers have a great problem
in financing the central government.
with the provinces splitting apart and
declaring independence and allegiance
TO the Yunnan movement. The military
expenditures are unusually heavy, as
many of the soldiers are receiving
double pay and nearly 10000 new re-
cruits have been enlisted since the be
ginning of the revolution.
II is estimated that the war expenses
Of the central government are 81 000,-
900 Mexican or about 100000 gold
every day.
So far the revolutionists have not Sc
riously interfered with the revenue OF
the salt monopoly in the provinces
which have declared their indepcn-
dence. This revenue is pledged as Sc
curity for the loan made to China by
japanese, English, German, Russian
and French bankers. The revolution
lists have preferred not to touch this
money II order TO avoid international
complications.
Negotiation of the American loan
with Lee Higginson & Co. and the ad-
vsncement of 100000 gold on this
loan by the American firm called forth
loud protest from such prominent revo-
lutionists as Tan Shaggy, who are do
ing everything in their power to pre-
vent the Yuan Shih-kai government
from getting funds TO pay the soldiery.
Commenting upon the efforts Of the
revolutionists to defeat the American
loan, "The Peking Daily News which
is regarded as the official organ Of the
administration, warns the revolution
ary leaders that they are striking a
hard blow az China's credit and per
forming a highly unpatriotic act
Rumors that Japan is planning TO
have China administered by an inter
national commission have created much
comment in the Chinese press. The
japanese idea is that all leading powers
interested in China as well as Chinese
would have representation in the COM
mission, but Japan would be the con-
trolling influence supported By the En-
tente Powers.

impress the casual reader with the idea
that the state is making appropriations
as in this case Of s6.2l6,9l4, which are
illegal and unnecessary. while the
amount in fact is an absolutely mands-
tory and unavoidable item OF the COST
Of state government"
The Governor declared that the sug-
gestion that he veto the appropriation

the veto of this item would pc re-
pudiation by the state OF an obi igation
on the prospective fulhlment OF when
the towns of the state levied their
taxes last year.
Governor Whitman further said that
the declaration of Mayor Mitchell ana
the Tax Reduction Committee that re-
duction Of 100000 could be made IN
the legislative Appropriation act was
based on no analysis of that act.
A severe criticism Of Mayor Mitchel

veto items aggregating s6,2l6,9l4 pro-

General and "three distinguished con-

OF New York, and George Clinton, OF
Buffalo and that all had advised him
that the veto Of these items would be
Illegal and unconstitutional. They
held. he said, that if disapproyed the
Controller would be compelled by the
state constitution to call on the coun
ties for a direct tax to the amount
Of the appropriations vetoed.

Whitman, was urged upon me last
year by the authorities of the City OF
New York when the appropriation bills
were under consideration. And at that
time also | was advised by the Attor-
ney General that such action would be
unconstitutional. I suppose the same
proposal will be made annually by the
authorities Of the City of New York
