Champ CLARK Is
Called By Mays

WASHINGTON, Mar. 1S.-Champ
Clark was asked to declare his posi-
ton on the league of nations in tel
egram sent to him at New Orleans
by Representative Mays of Utah. who
repeated his assertions that the form
er speaker had said in his presence
that the league constitution has as
much chance of being ratified as you
have of being pope of Rome"
Mr.. Clark had publicly denied
such a statement. Mr.. Mays
message, made public by the organi-
zation of Democrat members Of the
House who oppose the selection OF
Mr.. Clark as minority leader in the
next Congress said the former spcsk-
er's reference to tho league was made
on the day senator Reed of Missouri
spoke against Il in the Senate, aud
that Mr.. Clark declared that Mr..
Reeds argument was unanswer-
able"
"All other prominent public men
have announced their position ON this
vital public question:" said M. Mays
even Bryan from sick bed declar-
ing the covenant of peace to be the
greatest forward step in thousand
years, suggesting minor amendments
May We ask what are your sugges-
tons? We desire you to come out in
the open like other public men as
Stunning to lead in official position.
We remember you did not vote for
the war resolution and that you
spoke and voted against the selective

remember your attitude throughout
the period Of the war as being out Of
sympathy with the administration
and the majority Of your Democrat
colleagues.
DO you now propose to act in
harmony with the majority view or
to compel the majority TO act in ac-
cordance with your views? Are you
with Lodge, Penrose. Borah and
Reed or are you with the President

Laws Affecting Education Passed By
Recent Legislature

The legislature passed a number OF
bills effecting education in the state.
In addition to legislation accepting
the terms and benefits of the federal
act promoting vocational educat ton,
known as the Smith Hughes act, an
appropriation for the benefit OF the
school districts S112,5OO was passed,
which added to $4,000 available
from the government makes S76,25O
per annum available for vocational
education. The law enacted by the
legislature provides that this money
shall be spent for the promotion. aid
and maintenance of vocational educa.
ton in agricultural subjects, trade
and industrial subjects and home &c
onomics subjects, and education in
health and in civic and patriotic ser
vice continuing over the entire year
in the school districts of the state Of
Utah. The distinct contribution which
Utah makes for education is the rec
ignition that education should be
continuous process throughout the
year and that vocational education,
health education and civic and patri-
otto service education are all as equal
ly vital in the training of the child as
education in the common branches
Of learning.
Another piece OF legislation" the
enactment of a law to provide for
part time schools and classes which
is an addition to our present compul-
sorry attendance law. This law re-
quires that every minor between 1s
and Is years Of age. or any minor
under 16 years of age who has COM
pleted the sth grade shall be requir-
ed to attend a regular public or pri-
waite school at least 80 weeks each

Reasons Are Given
For League Attack

WASHINGTON, March 24.--Reas-
ons for the opposition in the Senate
to the covenant OF sued league OF
nations as advocated by President
Wilson may, as result of the de-
bate which began before adjournment
and has since continued on the stump
throughout the country, be summed
up as follows:
Because it yields American sover-
eighty to an executive council in
which it would be outvoted by ma
tons whose interests might be dia-
metrically different.
Because 1t is a clever plan, admit
ted by the President at the White
House dinner to have been conceived
by England, for maintaining the sta
tus quo established at Versailles.
Because it is Incompatible with the
competitive struggle of history and
nature which necessitates change and
development rather than fixity or
condition.
Because 1t upholds kings and em-
perors and does not grant self deter
mination and liberty to Ireland. In
dia, Korea or any other dependency.
Because 1t makes the United States
already overburdened with taxation,
the almoner Of the world and gives il
tasks in Europe and Africa which
would lead to conflict with the aims
OF other powers.
Because II makes complete our en-
tanglement in foreign politics with
out giving the world more liberty or
compensating us for loss OF full ma
Itionality and individuality.
Because 1t invalidates the Monroe
doctrine which presupposes our non
Interference in Europe just as we in
sist that Europe shall not interfere
in this hemisphere.
Because II prevents the armed pro-
lection Of our rights and interests in
turbulent Mexico in the event OF SER
ious menace TO our citizens there.
Because it would wear down the
economic barrier erected by America
to protect its standards of labor aAi
I of living.
Because as admitted by the Presi-
dent at the dinner to the Foreign AZ
fairs Committees, it does not actua,-
ly prevent future wars.
Because it is in effect continue
ton in perpetuity of the present al
lance of the nations which fought
against the Central Powers and binds
us in the future to act together to
control the world, something contrary
to the warning of Washington and
repugnant to the spirit OF our insti-
buttons and the traditions of a cen
tury.
Because IL restraints the United
States in providing an army and a
navy sufficient for its future protec-
ton.

so excused he must attend school at
least IA hours each year. This law
will add to the enrolment OF the
schools 10000 children between the
ages of IA and Is years who do not
attend school.
In another law education in health
was specifically provided not only for
children erolled in school but for the
children of pre-school age, and per-
mits boards of education to provide
health for parents and guardians.
Health education like vocational edu-
cation shall continue over twelve
months.
In the final hours of the session
the house adopted Senate Joint Reso-
luton amending the constitution. in
troduced by Senator U r. Jones OF
Iron county, which If ratified by the
people of the state in two years from
now will provide for each school
child between the ages of and IS,
$25 from the state funds for educa-
tional purposes in the district school.
To this extent Utah becomes one dis
trict for the eduaction OF the he'll
dren. Utah was one OF the first
states to adopt the district school law
which equalizes educational oppor-
tunities for the children of each
school district.
These added responsibilities plac-
ed upon the educators OF the state al
their request will require intelligent
efficient and constant work on the
part Of school men and women. We
must make good.

CITY May OWN
THE GAS PLANT
THIS SUMMER
Mayor, Through Howell, Urges
Merger of All Public UtiIi-
ties Before State
Senate.

Mayor Smith is pleased with the
way the bill for the creation Of a
public utilities commission for Oma-
ha is going in the legislature.
THE BILL" he said, Consists in a
broadening of the sphere of the
present water board, which would
become not merely the governing
body of the Metropolitan Water
district, but the governing body of
all the public utilities which Omaha
may acquire in the future. My
idea is to have the board or COM
mission elected as it is now by the
people. II will be self-perpetuating,
one-third of the membership being
elected at each election. Ii might
be advisable to make it larger than
II is now and to increase the salaries
when the commissions duties would
become much heavier with the ac-
QUESTION of the gas works, electric
light and power plant and maybe the
street railway"
May Own Plant This Summer.
Mayor Smith believes it likely that
the city will be in possession of the
gas plant by this summer.
Il hope we will be supplying gas
to the citizens OF Omaha by fall at
81 a thousand cubic feet" he said.
And then | believe that we can
continue to reduce the price Of gas
from time to time by substantial
figures, just as we have done with
the water plant.
"The appraisal board will prob
ably have its report ready in March.
Then the city council has so days to
either accept or reject the plant at
the price quoted.
"If the city council accepts the
plant at the price, it can go ahead
Immediately and without any red
tape and issue bonds and take over
the plant and operate it at once"
With the gas company in the
city's hands, acquisition of the cleo
trio light and power plant will be
sought by the city. This is not SO
near realization, as the courts have
ruled that the electric company has
a perpetual franchise. This does not
constitute a monopoly and the city
could go ahead and build compet-
ing plant.
In the purchase of the electric
plant the ownership by the present
company of a perpetual franchise
would add very heavily to the cost
the city would have to pay.

adcS; all came here optimistic and full of the strength and vigor that was the only asset of the true pioneer. Their hopes and fears have fructified, disastrously to many. Others have acquired a moderate compe- tency and are taking life easy in their de cIining years
 With the passing of these great mx will go much of the history of Alaska. The old sourdough is too modest or diffident to blow his own horn, and the little infor- nation obtained as to his deeds and eXperi- cuces must be pried out of him piecemeal and the fragments picced together by a worId-artist to bring the worth of these early residents to the notice of the rising generation.
 They came to this country when the Iatchstrings hung from every door; when the milk of human kindness flowed unceas- ingIy and ncighbor helped neighbor, with no thot of pecuniary compensation. They have buildcd a nightly empire and haze looked upon their work and pronounced it good Towns have sprung up where their pac-shod feet trOd the wilderness; great cities have grown around the small camps of the early days. Happy children romp and play about the scenes of their early privations.
 The only history preserved of the deeds of these empire builders rest in the archives of human brains, or in the scanty- kept records of the organization. A hun drcd years from now the memory of these trail builders will be perpetuated by his toricaI writers; but facts will be hard to obtain and inaccurate.
 A fund should be set aside by the ter litolial legislature for perpetuating the history of the carly camps and the men who founded them, before all traces of their work pass away with them. But little is known of the antecedcnts of most of the pioneers. They came and they conquered the country. They opened trails thru the Wilderness and prospected the creeks of the hiutclIand.

BLESSING OF WORK
Omaha Bee)

I've work to live, not live to work, y says a publication emitted by a radical group of workers in an eastern city. This subycrsion of the generally accepted phil osophy of life is challenge to the thot of all the ages It is easy to understand how it may be accepted by the indoIent, the idle, the selfish, but the ambitious, energetic and well balanced will reject it just as they reject the inverted morality of tales that have criminals for heroes.
 The universal impulse is to create. Man ascribes to the Omnipotent this faculty in its supreme expression, and notes thru all animated nature it's various manifestations. In man the effort is not restricted to eXer- else of reproduction of his kind, but en- braces so wide a field of activity that hu- manitv has been blessed and civilization enriched because men have lived to work.
 If the idea voiced by the thotless group had prevailed in the beginning, man would never have advanced from his arbOreal life, for then he could live with even less of personal effort than is now required He could eat and sleep and amuse himself in whatever way his animal instinct suggest ed, but he knew nothing of the real delights of existence If a man had worked only to live, none of the creature comforts that now pad existence would have come to soften our physical life.
