OUR WASHBURN

Continued from Page One.)
board who are chosen by the Alumni
association. it has always been the
policy of the board TO select several
other members from the Alumni of the
college. AS a result of this policy we
now have nine Alumni of the college
on the governing board. That is a
fairly generous representation of the
Alumni on the board, in view of the
fact that the support of the college is
coming to such a large extent from
other sources.
The Faculty Prcrogative.
: Under the Washburn scheme faculty
prerogative is also far greater than
has been represented. The faculty,
for example, has full charge of the
educational program of the college.
The president Of the college is also
the president of the faculty. but all
questions relating to the educational
program are decided by a vote of the
faculty, and in no instance has the
board tried to interfere with the fac
ufty prerogatiye. So also the problem
of discipline. the problem of the social
similar problems have been handled
in the same way.
However. the college authorities
have not been fully satisfied with the
present form of organization, and
hence at the last annual meeting of
IL. steps were taken to provide q new
constitution for the college that will
place it abreast of the most progress
sive American colleges. The commit
tee authorized for the task will con-
sist of two members from the board
of trustees, to be elected by the board,
two members from the faculty, to be
elected by the faculty, and two mem
bers from the Alumni association, to
be elected by the executive committee
ww~gk 10
president OF the college as chairman
The new constitution is part of the ex-
tensive plan worked out by the presi-
dent, a plan that is to be realized In
ten years. a $1,000.0o0 endowment,
adequate salaries. satisfactory housing
facilities for girls. new heating sys-
tenn, a new athletic field. several new
departments, an enlarged d
strengthened faculty, the re-housing of
the law school.
Features of New Organization.
One feature of the new organiza-
ton that has already been planned is
the machinery for judicial procedure
in the dismission of teachers. The
lack of such machinery is doubtless
one OF the most serious defects of the
present organization, because It ! as
opened the way for more or less mis-
conception in the very few cases
where teachers have bee dismissed.
But this defect in the present. organi-
zation is now to be remedied. In
fact, the only reason why it has not
been remedied before this is because
the problems of a college like Wash
burn cannot all be solved at once.
They must be taken in their turn.
The friends of washburn who have
any knowledge of the tremendous
problems of the college which have
been solved during the past four
Years will not ask why this or that
has not been done.

TAFT ENDORSES ALL ARTICLES
 OF LEAGUE
EX-PRESIDENT ENTHU S.
 IASTIC OVER BROADNESS OF PROVISIONS FOR PRESERVING THE PEACE OF THE WORLD:
By Associated Press.

PORTLAND, Ore, Feb. 17.-En- dorsement of all the articles of the constitution of the league of nations was given by William Howard Taft, former president of the United States, here today at the northwest ern congress for league of nations, which is holding its session in this city.
 Taft appeared enthusiastic over the brOadness 9f the historic dOcu- ment.
 "The constitution as read in Paris by President Wilson is indeed wider in the scope of it's purpose than was the platform Of Cur league to enforce peace," said Taft in describing the purposes of the league.
 Article 10 of the constitution ex- tends our Monroe Doctrine to the world by making it an obligation of the league members to respect and preserve against external aggression, tne territorial integrity and existing political independence of all states members of the league.
 "The punishment of a universal boycott is very formidable instru- ment of repression. We may reason ably hope that this prospect will minimize the temptation to make war and to secure the object of the league
 This Paris covenant has been made by the five nations who are to prescribe the terms of the treaty of peace.
 "A convention of all the nations would never have agreed on any thing as practical as this. This league is growing up as an institu- tion forced by the necessities of the situation

MEN BAWLED OUT
 MEETING
ATTEMPT TO RING IN SOLDIERS AND SAILORS IN UNPATRIOTIC ORGAN RATION CAUSES GREAT HOWL; CLUB FORMED.

PHOENIX, Feb. 17.-The Army and Navy Club, an organization of men holding honorable discharges from the service of the United States, organized by local ex-service men this morning, was the only out come of a meeting of the Work men, Soldiers and Sailors Council" in this city yesterday Hand-billed as meeting of protest against the domination of the workers by the capitalist or master class, the meet ing aroused so much opposition from its own floor that nothing was ac- complished, although everybody present got some light on the minds of the soldiers and sailors.
 An emphatic demand that the or ganization, if such exists, eliminate those honorable words, soldier" and "sailor" from its name was made from the floor, by man in soldier uniform. He sought recognition by the chairman immediately upon the call to order, but was ignored until the other 30 or 40 soldiers and sail ors in the hall rose and demanded that their spokesman be given a hearing.
 The reading of some revolution ary, discontented, disconnected sort of data caused considerable furorc, chiefly from men who objected to

PRICES ID BE CUT; REDFIELD
 ON THE JOB
COMMISSION IS NAMED TO STUDY THE PLAN FOR OVERNMENT PRICE FIXING; IDLENESS OF WORKERS IS N. G.
By Associated Press.

WASHINGTON, Feb. H.-The first step toward setting up the price conference commission to suggest prices which the government will pay for principal commodities during the postwar adjustment period, was taken today by Secretary Redfield, with the appointment of w. M. Rit- ter, formerly head of the hardwood lumber section of the war industries board, to supervise organization ex- ecutive work Six members will make up the commission, one of whom will be named by the railroad ad- ministration and the complete per- sonnel will be announced this week
 Secretary Redfield today declared specifically that neither price fixing nor price maintenance was contem- plated by the government or the in dustrial leaders who devised the ar rangement for suggesting commod- ity prices at level on which the consumer is expected to buy.
 ''Prices must come down." the secretary said, land it is only a ques- ton of whether or not the slow eco- homie proess of allowing factories to close and worllmen remain idle until consumption resumes again is to be followed. That plan is social ly dangerous. What is proposed by the conference board is immediate action to suggest the proper price level. No compulsion is involved and nobody will be compelled to abide by the decision. It will be merely a determined guide by which buyers and sellers can safely follow

WASHINGTON, Feb. 17.-Al- though meeting an hour earlier and remaining till 7:30, the senate failed to paos tke rivers and harbors bill and failed to proceed with the dem oc-2t;c plan for night sessions. The controversy over the appropriations which were denounced as wasteful, came from the opposition, chiefly from republicans, and resulted in little progress being made
 Senate leaders today knew of no addresses planned immediately on the proposed constitution for the league of nations, but they reiterat- cd their doubts whether senate de- bate could be restrained as request ed by President Wilson until Feb. ruary %, when the members of the foreign relations committees of both houses are to dine with the presi~ dent. An attack on the league plan 1t was suggested, was sure to draw a reply and precipitate debate.
 There was much informal talk at the capitol about the situation. One democratic senator who has spoken in opposition to the league, said he intended to speak again whenever he regarded the time as opportune.
 Senator Gore of Oklahoma said: Apparently the nation, except the cabinet officers and ex-presidents, is to go into a state of catalepsy on the question for at least 10 days"
