GIRLS AND BOYS READ THE COMPLIMENTS BUSINESS MEN PASS ON OUR GRADUATES.

Here are a few extracts from letters of prominent business men who have had the proof as to the ability of our graduates:
 Having employed several of your graduates, think your institution the best of it's kind in this country"
 "Of the seven young men you have sent us, six remain in our service, and the other has just joined the navy. All are making good"
 "There is such a scarcity of busi- ness colleges who fit their students for real business, that we cannot refrain from writing and indorsing your col lege, since several of your students have proven competent in our office."
 "As you know, have had number of your students in my office. I take this opportunity of saying that every student that I have had from your school shows superiority of training over students that I have had from other schools"
 q have given your graduates a thorough test, and have found them to be accurate and quick with their work. The thorough and practical training you give fits them for any kind of position"
 "We have one of your graduates as stenographer in our legal department at handsome salary giving entire satisfaction. The work is extremely difficult, requiring the greatest skill and accuracy. She reads her notes like print. We wish to commend your school for turning out such excellent graduates"
 eff all of your graduates are as pro ficient as the three young men we have in our office, you are certainly doing great work for not only the young people, but the business men as we'll"
 A large firm of Cotton Buyers of East Texas says:
 "We predict continued success for your Cotton Chasing Department. It is thorough and up-to-date and is in charge of capable instructors"
 "We have several of your students and all of them understand their busi- ness. Your courses are thorough or they could not take hold as they have done for us."

STRONG EFFORT WILL BE
 MADE TO EXTEND SESSION

Little Rock, July 24.-As the day for the convening of the extraordinary session of the legislature approaches, it becomes apparent that strong eff fort is to be made to extend the ses- sion for the purpose of considering remedial road legislation. There are a number of counties that will appeal to the assembly for relief, and it is known that the resolution has already been drawn and is ready for introduc- tion. It will require vote of two thirds of the members to extend the session for any purpose other than that of ratifying the suffrage amend ment, for which the session was called

SPECIAL SESSION MAY
 BE SHORTEST ON RECORD

The special session will convene two weeks from last Monday for the purpose of ratifying suffrage. It is still the opinion of conservative ob- servers of the legislature and the trend of the times that it will be the briefest session on record-that it will probably convene at noon Monday and adjourn at noon Tuesday.
 It is known that some of the mem- bers are coming with special road bills they want to have enacted, but if the bars are once thrown down, everybody might as we'll be prepared for a two weeks session. Some of the members, majority of them, it is believed, will insist that nothink what ever be taken up but suffrage.

MEXICAN LEGION IS
 ORGANIZING RAPIDLY

Little Rock, July 24.-The organi- fation of the American Legion of Ar fansas is spreading rapidly over the &tate.
 Posts have already been organized n Little Rock, Monticello, Magnolia, Forrest City, Marianna, Pocahontas,
 lake Village, Wilson, Eureka Springs, ElDorado, Malvern, Hope, Hot Springs, Harrisburg and Calico Rock. A minimum of fifteen men can or ganlze a post, and upon their appli- eaton, approved by the state commit zee, charter will be issued by the natlonal executive committee.

 It is a purely democratic, non-po- lltlcal, civilian organization, in which Ihere are no distinctions of rank, and titles are forbidden. There are no colonels, captains, lieutenants, sergeants, or privates, but every man IS plain "Mr."

"Biting the hand that fed him, he
has violated American laws and ideals.
1t is only to be wished that he and
all his ill1 could be sent permanently
to Russia or to some other far away
abode of Bolshevism or irrational So
cialism where they belong"
"Thore was indeed no other
course for the committee to take"
declares "The Philadelphia Public
Ledger which proceeds pointedly
as follows:
"The absurd contention that Berger
should be allowed to take his oath and
then be expelled is quite along the
line of the usual pacitist reasoning
that asserts you haven't any right to
prevent or foresee situations, but must
refuse to take cognlzance OF any overt
act of anybody until the bomb has
fallen into your lap or, in this case,
until Berger was actually seated in the
House of Representatives and posing
as indicated patriot.
"The House has never committed
this folly in the past; it is the Judge
of the qualification of the members
elect, and it should adopt the commit
tee report and refuse to tie up its
hands by giving disloyalty a certificate
Of character The committee bv nil
lorying Berger moreover has set Uncle
Sam and all the officials of the gov
eminent a good example, which they
we'll might follow"

delphia paper, "The Press there is

patch" which sees adequate reason
for denying seat to Berger. LET
voters Of the district prove their own
loyalty to the government by making
choice of fit representative before
they ask for representation in the
American Congress" is this papers
concluding dictum.
That there is no hope for Berger
and his following in looking to the
courts is the observation of "The
Washington Post 1T is not neces-
sary,' says this paper, that his con-
victlon stand in the courts in order
that he may be proved disqualified
for a seat in the House" The paper
then adds:
"Indisputable evidence of his unfit
ness as a member of the highest law
making body has been produced, and
even if the court should decide that
he has not actually transgressed the
letter of the law, the membership of
the House of Representatives and the
American people generally are con-
WINGED that he is not qualified to sit in

that body. Berger has shown by his
written and spoken words that he is
not in harmony with the American
spirit"
In view of the committees de-
cision that Berger was "disloyal to
the United States" and that he
gave aid and information to its
enemies at time when its existence
as free and independent nation
was at stake" THE Detroit Free
Press" argues that "the House of
Representative can afford to make
no concessions to dangerous her
esies' The paper now concludes:
There is just one proper course for
the house to pursue in the Berger mat
ter, and that is to accept and adopt
the committee report promptly and
without quibbling."
Berger can lay no justifiable
claim to martyrdom, in the opinion
of THE Philadelphia Bulletin"

a.
will be permitted to take
his seat therein and perform the
functions required of him by his
constituents. The reason is that
Congress itself has something to
say about a members fitness.
Specific illustration is provided
in the special house committees
report recommending that Congress-
man-elect Victor L. Berger, of Mil
waukee, be not allowed to occupy
his seat by reason of disloyalty to
the United States. Writings and
activities of Berger and his associ-
ates, the report states, had no other
purpose than to defeat the United
States in it's war Preparations. The
vote against the Socialist leader was
to /. The whole house will pass
on this report before adjournment
of the special session this month. A
new election in the Milwaukee dis
trict was also recommended.
Completing his first term as a
member of the House Of Represent
atives in 1918, Berger declared on
the eve of his return to Wisconsin
from Washington: II am coming
back here if | live. 1 have to go
back to Milwaukee now. We COM
PEELED the capitalist parties to COM
bine in order to beat US. Now we
shall beat them combined" Since
this utterance the erstwhile member
Of Congress and editor of "The Mil
waukee Leader" Socialist organ,
has been in the public eye as sub
ject for the country's judiciary.
Anti-war propaganda Of the Social
list leader was construed as treason
able and he was convicted under the
espionage act. His paper also was
denied mailing privileges under an
act covering seditious literature.
Opposition to his being seated in the
house is based ON the fact that he
is under sentence for penal offense,
and under the law no person so con-
victed is allowed to hold public Of
flee. Berger's counsel contends
that such legal barrier no longer
exists.
"The surprising thing" echoes
"The Scranton Republican" in re
marking the recent action of the
special committee named to report
on Congressman-elect Berger's right
to assume Office, sis that there could
be found, anywhere in the United
States, constituency so lacking in
patriotism that it would cast a ma
jority for Berger for a seat in Con-
gress."
The sentiment expressed is gen.
eral throughout the editorial columns
of the nations non-radical press.
But the case of Berger alone, rather
than the patriotism of his constitu-
ents, begets the most comment
"This country cannot, afford to
condone reasonable conduct" as
serts "The Richmond Times-Dis-

United States district court with
sentence suspended pending an ap-
peal
There is no question of partisan
ship in Berger's displacement. is the
belief of The New York Times,
which paper says that If he loses
the seat to which he was elected"
it will be because the House believes
he was disloyal during the war and
not because he was Socialist.
"The Times adds: 1.-The report Of
the special committee that consii
cred his case does not leave that
matter open to doubt. That IS well.
because OF course there will be an
effort to make a martyr Of Berger"
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1919-11-02

TINE fact that Congress is
taking active cognizance of
the alien menace to indus
trial peace is inspiring not
a little laudatory comment in the
non-radical American press. The
wartime passport and immigration
restrictions covering such actions
as sought to disclose to the enemy
vital secrets Of the country's de-
Tense and strategical policies are to
be continued for a year, at least,
after the ratification Of the peace
treaty. The plan is incorporated in
bill already passed by both houses
Of Congress and now in conference.
Another bill would prohibit aliens
from remaining unnaturalized in
this country for more than five
years. Any foreigner wishing to
make the United States his home
would have to assume the RESPONSE
bilities of American citizenship
within five years from the time of
his arrival, or else leave the coun-
try or be put out.
Both of these measures are gen
orally welcomed by the domestic
press. If there is any dissatisfac-
ton with them it arises from a de-
sire to enforce still more stringent
measures than those offered to
Danish the alien agitator now and
forever keep him from American
shores.
That some II 100000 unnatural
lied persons in the United States
constitute alone a menace of ire
mendous import is the opinion Of
"The Atlanta Constitution" which
remarks that "there can be no
question as to the timeliness Of such
legislative program" as that now
before Congress. "This situation"
the paper explains, demands that
those 'undigested' millions be sub
mitted at once to the process Of
assimilation, and all who refuse to
