The recent filing of formal articles
of incorporation of the Colorado Labor
Educational Association perhaps was
an act of little significance to the
average individual. Nevertheless, it
comprised a step in an undertaking
which impartial students of affairs
claim is destined to mark the begin
ming of splendid renaissance as to
capital and labor dealings in this state
and abroad in the land.
Dean F. B. r. Hellems of the State
University, member of a board de-
signed to put the new departure in
effect, says that the move of organ
lied labor in Colorado to systemati-
cally afford the benefits of higher
education to its sons and daughters is
the most hopeful occurrence in the
United States in years and that, 20
years from now, the developments
under that undertaking will be of
such magnitude as to impress the ma
tion and the world with the fact that
here in Colorado was found the solu-
ton of a problem that has baffIed
the ages.
Laboring Man Apprised.
A circular, now in course of prepa-
ration, will go shortly TO every labor
ing man in Colorado and apprise him
of what is being undertaken in his
behalf and for his offspring; also what
is expected Of him toward making the
plan a success.
James Duce, state oil inspector of
Colorado, and John r Lawson, of the
State Federation of Labor, are cred
tied with the inception of the labor
educational plan, which took root in
the annual labor convention at Boul-
der last summer and which now ad-
vances TO fruition under the newly
Incorporated association. II will be
recalled that the general plan pro-
yiics for the establishment Of a per
manent fund by the laboring classes
of Colorado from which TO make loans

union members. Arrangements viii
be made with the University Of Colo
RADIO and other educational institu-
tI0us Of the state for their co-opera-
tion in the movement; also. the local
unions will be encouraged to see that
the primary and secondary schools Of
every community are kept up to a
high standard Of efficiency. Labor.

the best schools possible in this state
and then see to it that means are at

impress upon the laboring men of
Colorado the Importance of lending
their prompt and continuous aid to

for PRONUNCIATION. This clarion note
is followed by an exposition of labor's
duty toward the educational needs of
the commonwealth today, which is

COURSE in
COMMERCE TO
BE OFFERED
University Makes Important
Addition to Curriculum
me This Year.

Ii The important announcement has
beenSmade at the University of North
Dakota that q course in Commerce
would be. offered In the College Of
Liberal Arts. The purpose Of the
course iss to prepare young men and
ltions in the business world. Upon the
completion Of the prescribed course
Of study the SUDDEN will be granted the
degree OF Bachelor OF Science in.
tCommerce. \
This step on the part of the univer-
sfty is considered me greatly In adj
vance. Modern business is as much
q profession as law, engineering or
medicine. Consequently 1t is just az
impossible to rise above the ranks in
the business world without a thor
principles OF business as 1t Is to be-
come a surgeon without an UNDER
standing Of the laws OF anatomy, or
to become an engineer without know
Ing the principles of mechanics.
Thefuniversities r being looked to-
for simplifying young men with COM
mercial training. y is e significant
fact that graduates OF commerce
courses receive salaries twice as large
as those sof trained men in. general.
and four times those of n~on-college
men. The great demand for men at
good salaries far exceeds the supply.
This extraordinary demand for
young men OF trained business ability
is in the fields Of accounting, banking.

foreign), insurance, public utilities,
transportation and the public service.
such as state railroad commissions,
the Federal Trade Commission, the
Federal Department of Agriculture.
the Federal Department Of Labor. the
consular, service and commercial
teaching. .
It is not the aim Of the U to
make at once full-f1edged business
men, but to give the necessary train
ing for large success in modern bust
s + I.
with this purpose in view the Uni
versity OF North Dakota has built up
a strong faculty for the instruction
this course. The men who will
have charge of the work are men of
broad experience in the business
world, and who combine with this
actual experience fine teaching ability.
