suppose of tramps hohocs and grown

JAPANESE EDUCATORS
 ESTIMATE OF WILSON

(Correspondence Associated Press)
 Tokio, Nov. 27.-The reelection of President Wilson has caused Dr. lnazo Notobe of the Imperial university to write some "reminiscences of the days when he and MT. Wilson were fellow students in the graduate department of political and economic science Tn Johns Hopkins university.
 "Mr Wilson showed even then that he was ;a man apart" said Dr. Nitobe. "When he went to Johns Hopkins he specialized in political economy. He was about 28 years of age, four years older than 1 and older than most of his class. His demeanor was always gentlernanly and dignified and he al- ways impressed us by his maturity: In our seminary the students would often turn to him on debated ques- tion and ask What about it, Wilson"
 Di. Nitobe recalled that President Wilson was a great adnirer of Bag ehot, the English essayist and that when he wrote his Congressional Government" he had in mind Bag ehoys phrase Parliamentary Govern ment" or governments in which the executive work is strongly influenced by committees of the legislature. Mr. Wilson often read papers in the semi nary which later appeared in his book and which caused him to be widely known.
 "On one occasion,' explained Pro- lessor Nitobe, "our professor gave me .Aristotle's ,Policies,' the main points of which l was to tabulate. When l came to Aristotle's references to milk as an essential in the proper nou:- ishn1ent of the young, l was in a quandry whether or not I should put 1t down. l. did so but was somewhat chagrined when my fellow students laughed at my including milk as one of the essential points of Aristotle's educational scheme. Wilson, however, took it most seriously and 1 remem- Der that l was greatly comforted by seeing him copy my tabulation with great care. And in book called The State which MT. Wilson wrote later and which has been translated into Japanese 1 was very happy to dis cover that he gave resume of Aris totle's political doctrines and that the points which he brought out were al most identical with the tabulation which had caused the other men to laugh"

INDIA'S COTTON
 INDUSTRY GROWS

Correspondence Associated Press)
 Simla, india, Nov. 2l.--Travelers in India today constantly hear business men make the statement that never has India been so prosperous. Sir Will liam Meyer, minister of finance, says:
 Economically India is more pros porous than she ever was before. Ac cording to Western ideas she is still very poor country but she is advanc- ing, as 1 can testify after a service of thirty-five years here. There has been greas development in 1ndia's agricultural and industrial enter prises, and the government has just recently taken another step in the ap- pointment of strong commission to consider the possibilities of further in- dustrial development.
 Since 1900 the progress has been remarkable. Between 1900 and 1910 he number of cotton mills increased from TIT to 210 and the persons en- oloyed from 145,000 to 2l5,000. The production of yarn rose from 343 ,000,- 900 to 593,000,000 pounds, and of goods from 95,O00,000 to 2l5,000,000 pounds Jute mills increased in num- per from 36 to 50 and the persons en- oloyed from 10000 to 204,000. Fur her, the percentage of manufactured goods imported into India as compared with the total imports has been stead Iy falling, while the per cent of manu- 'actured goods among the exports has been simultaneously rising. Agricul- ure, of course, is the main industry f the country, and during the ten ,ears under question the net area esti- 1 lated to be under crops rose from lS0,000,000 to 233, 3,000,000 acres" rEVAS CAMDANN LIVCS JenNIrS l
