Experts Urge Expansion Of
Farm MANAGEMENT Bureau

Washington, March 16.-Expan-
sion of the office of farm manage
ment of the Department of Agricul-
ture has been recommended by a
committee of farm management ex-
perts. appointed by Secretary Hous-
ton to outline projects for more ex-
tensive work. The committees re-
port made public today said the Of
ficers should include farm economics
as well as management and that the
name of the bureau should be
changed to that of farm management
and farm economics.
Changes in the existing system
were proposed and the committee
recommended that the work of the
bureau include costs of production,
farm organization, finance, labor his
tory and geography. Foreign and
domestic agriculture relations. land

Another recommendation was that
men employed to carry on the work
Should be of the calibre of those now
at the heads of the departments in
the best agricultural colleges of the
country and that the salaries offered
should be sufficiently large TO attract
such men.

Wilson's Covenant
Doomed to Failure,
Ayers Col. Harvey

Chicago, March 16.-Col. George
Harvey, editor of the North Amer
lean Review, in an address before
a gathering of bankers last night, de-
clared the league of nations coven-
ant as drawn us doomed to failure"
but that "the substance of the plan
has not been and will not be aban-
doned."
5 THE president is so fully COM
mitted to the project ana so firmly
convinced of the support of the peo-
pie that a test of the sentiment of
the country is inevitable" said Col
onel Harvey. whether he will
succeed in convincing the delegates
of the other powers of his ability
to so entwine the league notion with
the peace treaty proper as to en-
able him to coerce the senate seems
doubtful, but falling that, there is
hardly a question of his fetching
home some kind of proposition up
on which to raise a definite issue
before the country.

declared. Let America say to all
peoples that the powers have at
last gotten together to free the
world from fear of such occurrences.
The league of nations is necessary
to do this"
Speaking of the horrors of war,
the secretary said:

By Gen. Pershing

Washington. March l6.-Regula-
tons governing the army. education
al system now in operation in the
American Expeditionary forces were
explained in a general order issued
by General Pershing, and made pub

center is limited to Is per cent of
the organization it serves. Courses
provide a minimum of five hours

the soldiers will have the privilege
of y attending educational institu-
tons of France and Great Britain
and will be allowed, 50 per day for
subsistence and ST. per day for ex-
penses.
To accommodate the most advanced
students an "a. E. F. educational

centers. Only carefully selected
men may attend this school, the
course being set at a minimum of

speCted Preliminary to De-
parture From Germany
for Home in April.

Of the distant hills of unoccupied
Germany 10000 troops of the Thir-
ty-second division today heard Gen

the soldiers for their services in the
name of more thant l00000,000
Americans at home whose hearts
had been with the soldiers all dur
ing the fighting and since.
The Thirty-second division, which
was composed originally of national
guard troops from Michigan and
Wisconsin, is scheduled to start
for home early in April. General

relatives and friends of the soldiers
were eagerly awaiting their return
and how proud they would be of
the part the soldiers had been play
ing in the great war.
The review took place on the high
land east of the Rhine, beyond
Rengsdorf, the headquarters of the
Thirty-second division on a hill
overlooking the old castle of the
princess of Wied and a great valley
stretching away towards central
Germany.
After the review General Pershing
presented distinguished service med
ais to Mai. Gen. William Lassiter,
commander of the division; Brig.
Gen. Edwin B. Winans, commander
of the Sixty-fourth infantry brig
AIDE, and Col. Robert Nc Beck, chief
