SHAKESPEAREAN DAY is
URGED ON ALL SCHOOLS S
Appropriate Exercises for April %
Suggested by DR.. Claxton-High
Tribute to Immortal Poet.

Schools throughout the United States
are urged by DR.. p. P. Claxton, United
States commissioner of education, to
celebrate the Shakespeare anniversary,
April 23. with appropriate exercises.
Writing to educational institutions,
DR.. Claxton says:
Some weeks ago I received from DR..
Walter H. Page, our ambassador to
England, a letter renewing his sugges-
ton of a year ago, that I request all
schools in the United States to observe
April 23 as Shakespeare day and to de-
vote little time to fitting program
in memory of the one English-speaking
author best known to all the world.
1T am in hearty sympathy with this
suggestion and hope 1t may be carried
out in all schools of all grades, both
public and private, in session at that
time.
Shakespeare is the one personality
and the one great character In the
world who has broken down all inter-
national barriers. He is the only per-
son for whom there is an absolutely
worldwide admiration. No language
and no degree of culture-or the lack
of it-rules him out"
New York state has already arranged
to celebrate Shakespeare day.

ILLINOIS HAS FEDERAL AID
IN CURBING DlSLOYALTY
Special Justice Department Agents
to Be Assigned Immediately for
Work With Officials

Federal advice and aid in dealing
with disloyalty and in supressing dis
order in the state of Illinois have been
assured by Attorney General Gregory
on specific request from Gov. Lowden.
The Attorney General has declared his
Willingness to lend similar aid to other
states desiring it.
Special agents of the Department of
Justice will be assigned Immediately
for cooperation with the Illinois au-
thorities. These agents will report to
Gov. Lowden at Springfield for pre-
liminary conference before beginning
their labors. A general program prob
ably will be worked out in advance.
Without new legislation, officials
say. they are almost powerless to deal
with disloyal utterances, the suppress
sion of which, they think, is essential
to the prevention of disorders: but the
plish something in cooperation with
state authorities.
Lieut.. Gov. John G. Oglesby of Illi-
nois has held long conferences with
Mr.. Gregory and John Lord oBrian,
special assistant to the Attorney Cen
eral for war work.
He told them federal aid was i'm
perative to check increasing instances
of mob violence against disloyalists,
particularly in the mining districts of
southern Illinois.
While the recent Iynching of a Ger
man at Collinsville, Ill, probably
fastened the decision of the Illinois
officials to seek federal support. it is
understood that any part the Depart
ment of Justice agents may play in
investigating this particular case will
be only incidental to a general plan of
cooperation.
