PUBLIC BUILDING DRIVE
IN u. s. TO, BE STOPPED
col. Arthur Woods Sees Decrease
Of Unemployment in Many
-. Parts Of, Country :.

Col. Arthur Woods. special assistant
to the Secretary of War. announced
today that the War Department has
decided to stop the campaign for pub
lie building throughout the United
States. This decision. according to
Col Woods, was taken because the de-
crease Of unemployment in many To-
calfties has been SO marked that some
difficulty Is reported in obtaining SOL
der labor for normal Industrial ope-
rations. It il therefore considered. that
further stimulation Of public build
ing at this time would be inadvisable.
Energies devoted in the past to the
stimulation Of public building will
now be turned particularly into as
sisting professional and technical men
to finding jobs. The work of placing
this class of ex-soldiers Is said to
present unusual difficulty becausei the
demand for the high grade Of ability
possessed by these men is not at pres

active campaign Is now on to secure
information from trade associations.

cieties and large employers with
view to finding all possible opportuni-
ties for discharged Army men who

ASK RESERVATIONS

Senate Republican Leaders
Oppose Mere ''lnterpreta-

Strong opposition to the adoption
Of merely Interpretive" reservations
to the peace treaty was voiced by
republican leaders in the Senate dur

on the treaty. They announced their
support of reservations which must
be specifically accepted by the other
powers. :.
Senator Lodge. chairman of the

that, while in general practice a res
ervation might become valid if un-
objected to by the other parties to
a definite declaration by the Senate
that to make the treaty binding the
other powers must accept the res

The suggestion was seconded by SEN

there were any constitutional obsta-

HELP A HOME INDUSTRY.

Creekmur's business college is 8
home industry. 1t has been estab-
lished in Moscow for many years and
has given a business education 20
many persons who have since become
successful in the business world. The
school has been injured by the quar-
antine and the publication of the
statement that student had the in
fluenza many weeks ago. People
who planned to come here from other
states and make their homes, tempo
rarily in Moscow to attend this school,
have gone elsewhere. Something
ought to be done to counterfeit this
bad influence and let the surrounding
country know that people who attend
this school are safe from the disease
and that they will do we'll to come to
Moscow and take business course
here.
Senator Porter, of Latah county, is
apt to "get in Dutch" with the school
teachers of Idaho because of the word
ing of his very meritorious bill pro-
viding for mileage and per diem pay
for teachers attending institute. The
bill refers to teachers in every case
as she" and uses the same pronoun
in mentioning county school super
intendents. AS 80 per cent of the
teachers are women and most of the
are also of the
"gentler sex" is seems that the word
ing should have been che or she."
Our able senator is liable to hear a
protest from the female members of
the teaching profession because of the
wording of his bill.
