PLAN TO DIVIDE
STATE into MORE
TEACHERS UNITS
State Teachers Association to
Increase Number of Districts;
Adopt Chautauqua Method
of Instruction.
(From a Staff Correspondent

Lincoln, May 5.-(Special.) 1.-The
plan for the reorganization of the
Nebraska State Teachers association,
as prepared last Saturday at a meet
ing held in Lincoln, it is believed, will
be the means of increasing the school
interests of the state in a marked de-
gree
The plan divides the. state into dis
trlcts, each district paying its own
expenses, but the members will all
belong to the state association. At
present there are three districts
Known as the Omaha, Hastings and
Alliance districts, but the plan is to
increase the number of districts plac-
ing the headquarters of each in towns
which show the most interest.
Backers of Meeting.
II Heretofore the meetings have al
ways been held in Omaha and Lin
coin, with an attendance running
along above 1000, mostly from the
eastern part of the state. 1t is be-
lieved that by holding different meet
iugs that more teachers will get the
benefits. There are $4,000 teachers
il the state. but Omaha, Lincoln and
Hastings have always furnished the
bulk of the attendance at the state
meetings.
The committee believes that paid
secretary is needed. Having divided
the state into 80 sections the COM
mittee believes a secretary is essen
tial in order to get the best results.
The matter will be finally settled at
the next State meeting which convenes
in Omah in November. The speak
ers for the meeting will be arranged

What Is a
Good I,
Record Worth?
Editorial in World-Herald)

Walter Jardne continues to play lone hand
in the city campaign. He has no partners. He is
recognized on no slate. He has no organization
or committee boosting him, spending time and
money to win him votes. Nobody is hiring halls
or brass bands for him, or renting headquarters
and hiring stenographers and clerks to promote
his interests
And so people say Jardine has no chance of
election They 60 on the cynical theory that
candidate has to have powerful special friends
and well-heeled organizations to be elected If
he is the friend of no one but the ordinary plain
people, the exponent Of nothing but efficiency
and the square deal, has only ability, experience
integrity and high standing to recommend him.
Why he needn't come round!
We wonder if it is so. This cynical theory is
going to be tested next Tuesday
The World Herald hopes that every voter who
believes Jardine deserves reelection, and that his
reelection would be a good thing for Omaha, will
vote for him, whether he believes he has
"chance" or not .@A
Let's take a fair and square count of noses,
and see how many Omaha people are willing to
commend a splendid record, and vote to re-elect
an able and honest public servant even if the pol
iticans do shun him and tie reformers pass him
scornfully by.
Let's try the thing out once The verdict will
be valuable guide for public officials generally.
twill tell them whether good and clean record
is worth anything as an asset.

Council of Defense Appropriates ST.
800 For Cause-A Campaign OF
OratOry.

The Maryland Council Of Defense
has appropriated $1,000. $500 per
month for three months, to be de-
voted to an educational campaign
throughout the State on the vans
aims. This campaign will be con-
Quoted by means of pamphlets, ad
vertising, lantern slides in moving
picture theatres, and by speakers.
The oratorical part of the campaign
will be one Of the most elaborate
ever undertaken in Maryland. 1t
will enlist the services of the most
distinguished men in the State
lawyers, preachers, and business
men. They are not expected to
make charges for their services. AS
far as it practicable speeches in NOV
ing picture theatres and in other
places. where crowds gather, will be
limited to four minutes each. Henry
w. Williams will be in charge of
the speakers bureau.
1t is proposed to carry the cam
paign into every nook and corner of
the State. 1t will be at it's height
when the campaign for the subscrip-
tions to the Third Liberty Loan be-
gins on February l 5th and is expec-
ted to be of great aid in inducing
subscriptions.

citizens Tor It's G2CEut
no such burdensome fificla0
statute had ever beft been exc
cuted without e great hierarchy of
officials.
This law has been administered
by civilians whose relations lies only
in necessary powers with which they
are vested by the Presidents desig-
nation of them to perform the duties
that are laid upon them. They have
accomplished the task. They have
made some mistakes. The system
offers room for improvement.
But the great thing they were
called upon to do they have done.
The vaunted efficiency of absolutism,
Of which the German empire stands
as the avatar, can offer nothing to
compare with it. It remains the Ill
innate test and proof of the intrinsic
political idea upon which American
institutions of democracy and self
government have been based"
Analysing the first draft, General
Crowder shows that 9,586,508 men
between the ages of 81 and 81 years
registered themselves. Up to late in
December only $3.50 arrests had
been made of those who had sought
to evade registration and of that
number 2,263 were released after
having registered, and there remain
only 2.095 cases to be prosecuted.
The report declares that in the final
analysis of the records it will be
shown that only 0.00026 per cent. of
the men within draft age evaded reg
istration.
A rough figure of 80 per cent. is
given as the number of registrants
who failed to appear when called by
their local boards for examination,
but General Crowder hastens to ex-
plain that most of these men already
are in Europe in the American, Brit
ish and French armies. They did
not await the draft processes in their
eagerness to get into action.
THE final data will undoubtedly
show" General Crowder added,
