Albuquerque, N. M, Dec. 4.--Jona-
than III. Wagner, state superintendent
OF schools, delivered q ringing ad-
dress at the State university this
morning on the Importance Of main
tanning efficient school and college
organization during the war. The
occasion was the appearance at the
university assembly of a number OF
former students who have Just return
ed on leave from various officers
training camps where they have sue.
cessfully passed examinations and re-
ceived commissions. Six OF these
young men occupied seats on the plat
form with Mr.. Wagner and DR.. David
r. Boyd, president of the university.
They are only a few of the univer-
sity's last year upper classmen who
are now in various arms Of the mill
tary service here and in France.
Mr.. Wagner began his address with
q reference to the growth OF the
State university during the past eight
years. He said that eight years ago
the university was doing little more
than preparatory o II high school work
and cited an instance of a school SUI
pe~rintendent in a town 200 miles from
Albuquerque who hesitated to estab-
lish a high school because it might in
terfere with the work of the univer-
sity. Now, he said, the University Of

San JUAN RAILROAD
PLAN is FEASIBLE
JUDGE coNFERs WITH RAILROAD
COMMITTEES IN DURANGO;
DRIVE ro BE MADE FOR MIL
LloN.poLLAR BONUS

District Judge Reed Holloman, who
is interested in the plans OF NJ b.
Hereby OF Chicago for the construc-
ton OF a railroad that will give the
San Juan basin a southern outlet,
stopped in Durango, Colo, on his way
from Santa ye to San Juan county to
hold court and while there met with
the railroad committee of the Du-
range exchange. The people Of La
Plata county, Colorado, and San Juan
county, New Mexico, r enthusiastic
over the Hereby plans and arrange
ments are being made for q drive for
a bonus of 81, OO0,0 900, to be paid after
the railroad has been completed and
is in operation. Albuquerque has
promised a bonus in the event that
city is made the southern terminus,
and Gallup probably will make an eff
fort to guarantee a bonus in the hope
that the road will be projected from
the San Juan basin to that point.
In an interview in Durango Judge
Holloman stated that he regarded the
Hereby proposition Is feasible and de-
serving Of support. He voiced his
faith in Mr.. Herely's ability to put
through his plans.

there we're extenuating circumstances
regarding the last Vatican peace note.
The Holy See, however, is much oc-
cupied by the Russian situation, the
cardinal said, and expects to make q
statement relative to the recent pub
lication of the Russian diplomatic
documents when the correct text has
been secured.
Cardinal Gasparri said the Vatican
also was watching ~anxiously the
changes in the government Of Russia.
The elimination OF the imperial party
has left the Holy See free to commu-
nicate direct with Russian Roman
Catholics. Heretofore documents in
tended for a bishop had to go through
the hands of the officials of Russia's
legation to the Vatican. The posi-
bility of Orthodox Catholics in Russia
finally recognizing the Roman Pope
instead of the former Russian emperor
as head of the church is being consid-
cred in Vatican circles.

Letters asking County Councils OF

and confer on the question OF tho
state furnishing seed and stock feed
TO farmers during 1918, as was done
this year, are being sent out today
by Governor Lindsey.
The governor, in his letters, states
that approximately $4,000 has been
SO far expended by the state In fur
nishing seed and stock feed to farm
ers, and that repayment of many OF
the advances probably will have to
be postponed because of crop failures
this year.

"Up to the present time there has
been furnished to farmers. in seed
and feed costs, approximately $780,
900. Repayment Of these advances,
according to agreement, will, it is
believed, have to be postponed in
many cases because of the failure OF
crop production on account OF
drought, etc.
IN considering these questions,
please have in mind that the money
used for such financing must be got
through the sale of bonds under the
provisions of the special war appro-

this matter is respectfully urged.

Must Keep Up School
Efficiency in War
In Ringing Address State Superintendent Wagner
at University Urges Educational Institutions to
Do Their Bit; Varsity Welcomes Soldier Sons

New Mexico was doing full college
work OF the best standard, doing 1t ~
months in the year and offering to
the young men and women Of New
Mexico educational advantages which
finally eliminated the necessity for
young people to leave their home
state in order to receive a college edu-
cation. This work, he said, had been
established on SO firm a basis and
the institution was growing so rapidly
that in spite of SO or more Of its up
per classmen who have been called to
the war, this years enrolment is now
equal to that Of last year.
Passing to the main points Of his
address the state superintendent said
that our educational system must not
only remain intact, but be made more
efficient during the war, first, in or
der to win the war; second, for the
sake Of the present generation, the
boys and girls who must DON take
UP the work. OF the world; and third,
for the future generations and to the
end that in our terrific struggle to
make the world safe for democracy,
the institutions Of democracy may
not suffer at home. The address was
a thoughtful, clear, presentation OF
the problems of maintaining educa-
tional efficiency during the war. and
was heard with close attention.

WALL STREETS VIEW
APPARENTLY APPROVAL.

New York, Dec. 5.--wall streets
view of the recommendations of the
Interstate commerce commission in
respect to the operation ,of railroads
was that of approval insofar as senti-
ment can be gagged by the movement
Of stocks. Rails rose from 1 to 3
points and industrials followed suit.
Some elastic provisions for estab-
lishnent of new routes probably will
be needed. If the other alternative
be adopted and the president operates
the railroads as a unit during the
period OF the war, there should be,
in our opinion, suitable guaranty to
each carrier Of an adequate annual
return for use of the property as
well as of its upkeep and mainte-
nance during operation, with provi-
sion for fair terms on which i'm
provements and betterments made by
the president during the period Of his
operation could be paid for by the
carrier upon return to 1t OF the prop
erty after expiration OF that period"
Commissioner McChord agreed In
general with the commissions major
ity report, but said:
"Our experience with railroad COM
mittees during the past year makes
me believe that no voluntary com
mittee car accomplish what the SIT
uation demands.
4 zone OF the principal reasons is
that the element of self-interest the
traffic influence, is a persistent fac.
tor in p~ostponing and resisting meas
ures that seek to disregard indi-
vidual rights in an effort to secure
transportation results as a whole.
For these and other reasons which
it is not necessary to state. | can
not concur in a report to the con.
gress which apparently acquiesces
in a bulletin of control over the
transportation situation by a COM
mittee appointed by the carriers
themselves"

that government management dur
ing the war was the best force and
that the next best plan would be to

RUSSIAN MONEY FOR
RUMANiA WITHDRAWN

Washington, Dec. 5.--The Russian
ambassador has returned to the
treasury the $5.000.0O0 given to him
for advance to Rumania. 1t was ex.
rlained at the Russian embassy today
that 1t was impossible to have the
money changed into rubles by the
Russian State bank at Petrograd.
The original plan was to have the
Russian ambassador here receive the
funds in dollars and issue an order
on the Petrograd state bank to trans.
fer to the Rumanian account the
value in rubles. Today's reports OF
the Russo-German armistice extend.
ing to Rumanian troops probably will
defer disposition of the money.

IA suggestion that the bean growers
of New Mexico form an organization

by State Bank Examiner George II.

With each letter Mr.. Van Stone en-
closed copies of the letters he recent

written to the comptroller by Her
bert Hoover, national food admins
traitor, to whom the Van Stone letter
was referred and OF a letter received
by the state bank examiner from the
quartermaster general of the u. s.

In his letter Mr.. Van Stone said:
1T is apparent that great interest
is being taken in this bean matter by
all concerned and I trust that you will
advise all interested parties in your
vicinity of that fact.
May / suggest that you interest
yourselves in the formation of The
New Mexico Bean Growers associa-
ton for which there appears to be
an urgent need?
Such an organization might adver-
tise our pinto beans, giving the ana
lysis of them, showing the large
protein content; it might send sam
pies to each cantonment in the Unit
ed State and do other things to bring
the pinto bean prominently before
the attention OF all interested.
Il have interested myself in this
matter because of the effect Of in
