The desirability of having foreign
residents educated in the American Ian
guage and the principles of American
government is not questioned but it has
never been found practical. Education
of ignorant adults is difficult and is an
exception rather than the rule and it
is not clear that it can be accomplished
now better than in the years past
1t will be noted that the two bills call
for government appropriations of $112,-
100000 a year. Generally the federal
government furnishes only as much
money to the states to use as the states
raise themselves. If this is true in this
case it means an expenditure of 1926
100000 year by the state and federal
governments. That is a pretty large
amount of money to expend during
these days of expensive living and
| high rates of taxation. 1t would seem
wiser for congress to consider more
fully the probabilities of success in
educating people who have passed the
stage of education before imposing such
an expensive undertaking on the public

Washington, ID. G.. May 27.-When
the Rochambeau steamed out of New
York harbOr today, bound for France,
it had on board four canning and dry
ing missionaries to the French. They
are missionaries in that they will carry
the message of home preservation of
food to a country which now does prac-
tically no canning at home. There is
job for factories.
1t is a cooperative enterprise, the
parties to it being the American com
mission for devastated France, the
French ministry of agriculture and the
United States department of agrcul-
ture.. The party was made up follow
ing u cabled request from the French
minister of agriculture, through the

But the real beginning of the pro-
ject is a long way back of the cable
gram from the French minister of ag

of agriculture. Last fall, Mrs. Bernice
Carter Davis, one of the members of
the party of four was in
France for the American commission
for devastated France. She discovered
that practically no home canning is
done. that practically all canned pro
ducts are put up in commercial can

of agriculture was interested in the
home demonstration work done in the
United States by the department of ag
ricuture and state colleges. She talk
ed home canning with officials of the
ministry. Then she came home and
talked it with the American commits

Daily Summary
of Peace News
By The Associated Press.)

Germany's counter proposals to
the peace terms of the allies will
be completed by tonight and will
be presented to the peace confer
ence by Count Won Brockdorff Ran
tau. chief OF the German peace
mission. tomorrow, according to
Paris advices.
1t is expected that the reply of
the enemy representatives will be
very elaborate and voluminous. The
- fact that the peace conference has
been informed by the German dele
cation that no further extension of
time is to be asked would seem to
indicate that the documents to be
turned over tomorrow will be Ger
manys last word before taking
definite attitude toward the terms
of peace. Dispatches seem to re-
fleet quite a sharp division of senti-
ment among the Germans as to
whether the treaty should be
signed.
1t was announced last week that
the terms to be presented 10 Aus
tria would be considered at plen'
AIRY session of the peace conference
TO be held today. Since that time,
however, delays have been occasion
ed by the difficulty of framing the
section of the treaty dealing with
Preparations. \ portion of the
terms, however. may be ready for
presentation before the end of the
present week.
While there have been rumors tina
the AllRussian government at
Omsk, headed by Admiral Kolchak,
is to receive recognition from the
allies, there has as yet been no
confirmation of these reports. 1t is
indicated there are certain gunan-
tees demanded as a condition to the
recognition of the Omsk regime.

Australians Elated

Paris, Monday, May 26-The JOY
of the Australian delegation TO the
peace conference over the news of the
rescue of Harry G.. Hawkel' was eN-
pressed in statement issued by it to-
night.
The world will not forget his plucky
attempt" the statement said.
Australia is proud of Harry Hawker
and the Australian delegation halls him
as a worthy son of the great land which
gave him birth. The flight was for the
purpose of testing the ability of an air
plane to cross great space in a new
way. Technically the airplane has yet
to be proved but Hawker's attempt has
more than proved the ability of the
men who operate these machines. 1t
is great thing to know we can still
produce brave men; it is perhaps great
er that the world after five years of
war still admires bravery
