The time has not yet
come, nor do | anticipate
that it will come immediate
ly, when we can add strictly
professional schools in law
and medicine. No nave been
able to effect a grouping Of
courses, however, by which
work equivalent to the first
two years Of both law and
medicine, is offered and which
when completed, will be &C
cepted at face value for two
of the four years courses in the
best schools of law and me-
dicine of this country. A
school of pharmacy is neces-
sary here and should be ad-
ded as quickly as our equip
ment and resources will per-
nit.
During the year We have
completed establishment Of a
course in special training to!
service in thr Latin American
counties. This course is verz
properly regarded as an import
ant addition to e1x oqlg3paea
for service to the state. There
is an insistent and steadily grow
ing demand for young men anc
women who are trained in tht
language, geography, economic
and social conditions and in the
history and reeds cf the Latil
American nations. We are nov
prepared TO supply that train
ing. Men and women wht
have it will rendily find them
s-lves in demand for position

Of the native young mea OF New
Mexico would be qualified if
they could be Induced 10 attend
the high schools and universi-
ties. If this is done I feel sure
there will never be such a thing
as race issus in our politics.
The Intellectually srrong and
the broadly educated aill always
govern not only in this country
but in every country on the face
OF the earth. This is a law high
er than written constitutions or
statutes. I believe an earnest
effort should BE mAda to get
more Of cur native young aen
and women into the high schoals

We need them as teachers in
our schools especially. But

DYSPEPSIA OVERCOME
a0hzsnEnJszyl.a
Tone Up the Stomach with Hoods
Sarsaparilla.

When you have dyspepsia your
life is miserable. You have bad
taste in your mouth, a tenderness
at the pit of your stomach, a feeling
of puffy fulness, headache, heart
burn, and sometimes nausea
Dyspepsia is difficult digestion
that is what the word means-and
the only way to get rid Of it is to
give vigor and tone to the stomach
and the whole digestive system.
Hoods Sarsaparilla, sold by all
druggists, is the one medicine which
acts on the stomach through the
blood and also directly. Its bene-
hcial effects are felt at once. Inn
provenent begins immediately.
Hoods Sarsaparilla puriAes the
blood, makes the rich red blood that
h needed for perfect digestion, and
builds up the whole system. Be sure
to get Hoods, for No other medicine
can take it, place.

ASQUTTH MOVES NEW
WAR CREDIT OF MORE
THAN TWO BILLIONS
S2,100,000,000 Sum Asked From
Commons, Biggest Loan in
History of English
Parliament
BIG LOANS TO ALLIES

LONDON. Feb. 81.
Premier Asquith in the House of Com
mons this afternoon moved vote of
credit for S2,tOO,OOO,OOO with which to
carry on the war The credit is in two
parts the main sum being $1,000, 100000
and the remainder $500, 100000, supple
mcntary credit
This is the biggest vote Of credit over
moved in the history OF the House Of
Commons.
The money thus obtained will run the
government until about the end OF May.
Between April 1915. and last Satur-
day, 9hc total credits voted by Commons
were S5,990,000000.
From April. 1915. to February TO- 1915,
the British Government spent Si17i,OO0,-
600 for ammunition and guns for the
army and navy.
II Is costing approximately SIS, 900, 900
daily to furnish army and navy muni-
tions.
Since the outbreak of the war England
has advanced S792,5O0,O00 to her allies
and colonies in loans
Tho cost of the war has mounted stead
lily. During the spring of 1915 it was
estimated at $i4,OO00OO daily whereas
it Is S25,OOO.oOO a day now.
The treasury still has in hand from
previous votes of credit $50 900. 600. Mr..
Asquith said This is enough to run the
Government until about the lWtn OF MarCn.
In moving the new credits, MIR AsQuith
said in part:
at is uncertain what sums win be spent
between now and the end of the fiscal
year I'm purchasing American securities.
II Is desired by the Treasury to repay
substantial sums to the Bank Of England
for moneys advanced.
"Thc Finance Committee of the Cabinet
has appointed a special committee of busi-
ness men to outline a program that will
combine business economy and efficiency.
! do not think, however, that the present
system can he improved on. The Govern
ment is still confident of the justice of our
cause and that our cause will eventually
win"
1t is estimated that the war is now cost
ing England more than S75O.OOO,OOO
month, with no prospect of reduction in
sight
The first step in the Governments cam
paign for economy has been to close many
of the public museums which have hIther-
to been supported by the National Treas
ury.
