IJRGESNATIONAL
UNIVERSITY AT
WASHINGTON, C.
Congressman Fcss Tells City
School Teachers of Great
Project

A National University at Washing
ton, which will be open for research
work to students of the world under
the leadership of the best men of the
country, the government to be the
beneficiary of these discoveries, is the
aim of DR.. S. ID. Fess, president of
Antioch College at Antioch, Ohio, and
Congressman from that district, he
stated in his address to the city
teachers this morning in the auditor
ium of the Central High School at the
opening session of the fourth day of
the city teachers institute.
DR.. Fess' plan was first the dream
of Washington, who twice recon-
mended it to Congress, and upon his
death bequeathed a sum of $4,000,
and named the place for the erection
of the University at a part of Wash
lngton still known as University
Heights. Numerous times since then
1t has been given consideration, but
has always fallen short of being car
ried to perfection. DIR. Fees has ma
tured his plans so far that the mat
ter will be brought before Congress as
soon as the vocational bill has been
before the House.
IuS SCHeIue dS DelnS SET IOfln Dy
the speaker is to expend a sum of
four million dollars for an administra-
tion building to be called the Ma
tional Archives Building. The speaker
stated that this country is the only
nation in the world that does not
boast of such building. The institu-
ton would be controlled by a board
of directors. Any scholar of rare abil-
ity with the degree of Bachelor of
Arts would be invited to come to
Washington to do research work in
any department. with the govern
ment as the beneficiary of the re-
searches, one discovery would often
pay all expenses of the National Uni
versity for 100 years." declared the
speaker.
The other speaker of the morning
was DR.. Edward f. Bigelow, a Con-
necticut lecturer, editor and natural
list. His subject was THE Child or
You"
Superintendent F. E. Downes an
nounced the next and final session of
institute for Saturday, March IL. The
lecturer will be Hollis Damn, head Of
the Department of Music of Cornell
University. His address upon the sub
Ject of music will be the first de-
livered upon that theme for several
years to the city teachers. S. l..
Krebs, a Philadelphia psychologist
will also speak.

Speak on Preparedness Be-
fore Security League
By Associated Press

Washington, d. c., Jan. 22.-Un-
qualified endorsement of the admins
tration's continental army plan was
given to-day by Henry L. Stimson. Sec
retary of War in the Taft administra-
tion, in an address before the National
Security League.
Declaring himself in favor of COM
pulsory universal military service as
the true solution of the defense prob
lem, MIR. Stimson said he regarded the
program now advanced by Secretary
Garrison as the sound initial step.
IF Congress is not ready yet to
sanction universal training" he said,
the measures whicn are enacted
should be those which. so far as they
go, are in accord with this great fun
damental duty and which as time
passes and experience ripens will lead
most naturally to the establishment of
such q system.
Discusses Border Trouble
Instead of ourselves performing
the most vital duty of citizenship"
said Mr.. Stimson, I'VE have been hir-
ing other men to do it for us. Other
democracies have been more consist
ent and intelligent and to- day they are
reaping the advantage of their action
not only in their national security but
in the stability of character which
their training has given to the indi-
vidual."
Referring to the recent Mexican
troubles and the demands of many for
a punitive expedition, Mr.. Stimson
said: ut is conceivable that at almost
any time the hands of our govern
ment may be forced by some such
emergency, yet at the present day with
the great bulk of our army massed
along the Mexican border we have only

Meeting of Big Steel Men Starts
Pennsylvania-Cambria Com
bine Rumors Again

Dispatches from Philadelphia in
commenting upon the big earnings of
the Cambria Steel Company, to-day
revive stories of a new steel combi-
nation which it is declared will include
the Pennsylvania Steel Company.
William II. Donner. head of the
Cambria company and chairman of
the board of directors of the Penn
sylvania Steel Company, the dispatches
say, is reported to have come to an
agreement with the syndicate which is
promoting the new combination and
that this means the merger will be
effected at an early date. This report
has been denied by President Donner
and j. Leonard Replogle, the principal
Cambria stockholder.
The report probably had its origin
in a meeting between Mr.. Donner, b.
Dawson Coleman and Mr.. Replogle.
Mr.. Coleman is a director of the Penn
sylvania Steel Company and is also one
of the DreXel- -Replogle syndicate
which took over the Pennsylvania
Company's Cambria Steel holdings.
Mr.. Replogle said that there was no
significance to the meeting and Mr..
Donner said that he and Mr.. Coleman
were discussing different matter
