part, as follows:
at is indeed the governments
business during the readjustment Of
industry to take council for the
average man. The problem of solv-
ing the unemployment problems are
chiefly in the hands of the cities,
states and government. 1t is the
duty of the federal government to
give aid wherever possible.
The United States is indeed more
fortunate than the European nations

dustrieo were dieorganized by wire,
they weren't so seriously affected
as the European Powers"
President Wilson concluded his
speech by declaring that "the pro-
cess of guidance isn't completed by

but is completed only by that stand
ard of benefit it confers upon those

tribute to the success of these en-
terprises." -. -. 49, -. 49,.

Legislation Planned to
Regulate Teachers Paw
Control of School Systems May
Be Taken From Cities if
Bill Is Passed

ALBANY, Jan. 22-Legislation will
be introduced within two weeks to fix
the salaries of public school teachers
according to grade and the city in
which the school is situated, and to
take the control of city. educational
systems out of the hands of municipal
authorities.
,, Ernest A. Crandall, who has been in
vestigating the shortage of teachers
throughout the state, conferred with
Governor Smith and Senate and As
sembly leaders to-day. He is president
of the State Federation of Teachers
and principal OF Washington Irving
High School, New York He was ac-
companied. by Miss Isabel A. Ennis,
president of the Brooklyn Teachers
Association.
They told the Governor and leg
islators that the situation in New York
was acute, 696 teachers having left the
public schools there since September /.
Only an increase in salaries, Mr.. Gran
dali and Miss Ennis declared, would
recruit the teaching forces of the state.
Educators will confer tomorrow in
the State Education Building and urge
the adoption of a minimum wage for
teachers. The State Federation of
Teachers has programme which would
add s7,000,000 to school pay rolls, but
would appropriate the sum gradually.

out rapidly by the instructor The
student must repeat at least one of
these sets correctly in reverse order in
order to pass.
Final Requirement
The final requirement, after the dis
play of simple code, requires the
pupil to construct stipulated messages
according to its terms. Or, as an al
tentative test here, two twenty-eight
syllable sentences may be read out
the applicant being required to repeat
one perfectly in order to become ac-
ceptable. Another alternative final
test presents problems which will bring
out the students comprehension Of
physical relations, the object in every
case being to demonstrate the extent
OF the applicants ability to direct his
attention inward and evince steadiness
OF purpose.
For so-called Superior adults" more
difficult tests have been drawn up, but if
a boy can pass the set listed the Co.
lumbia authorities declare that he is
sufficiently alert, sufficiently we'll bal
anced to satisfy Columbia Previous
scholastic education, or aack of it, does
not so much matter any longer. The
boy who can pass that complete test
satisfactorily, they say, can very quick
ly "coach up" on the regular subjects
so rs to be able to take his place in
good standing in the university--or in
the larger world outside, for that
matter.
