simmons Against Repeal of War Pro
hibition Act.

II. f. Bryant. Washington cores
pondent OF the Charlotte Observer
last Tuesday said
Senator Simmons has followed
President Wilson heretofore in his
recommendations TO Congress except
as to woman suffrage. He announced
today that he would not support his
proposition for the repeal of the war
time prohibition act. He will not un-
do a prohibition record of 20 years,
he exclaimed, and therefore he will
oppose any repeal measure.
Senator simmons attitude toward
the suggestion OF the President is
typical of that of other southern
Congressman who represent dry
States. He said he could not explain
his action to his constituents, and
would not be branded as an anti-pro-
hibitionist.
Senators Smith. of Georgia, Over
man and many other Senator leaders
said they doubted if the repeal bill
would even be considered by the Sen.

Senator Simmons is opposed tC

armed men without loss of an ounce
and without general knowledge of the
procedure,
Eighteen of these treasure trains
made the trip across the continent in
the twelve months ending last April

ed high in each of the fixed express
ears composing special train. Two
men with automatic pistols at their
hips and sawed-off shotguns at their

The Illiteracy Problem.
National School Service.

National School Service.
Many of the men and women who
are able to meet a literacy test re-
manned in school in childhood days
only long enough to learn the merest
rudiments of reading and writing.
How inadequate Is the foundation
that this gives for intelligent citizen
ship is suggested by the results OF the
psychological and educational tests
given in the army. II these results
can be safely generalized, one must
conclude that nearly one-fourth OF the
adult population of the United States
is only barely lettered, for the tests
showed that nearly twenty-five pei
cent of the drafted soldiers were una
BILE to write an intelligent letter or
read newspaper intelligently.
A relatively large proportion OF TINS
educational deficiency must be charg'
| ed against the rural schools with
their short terms. their poorly paid
unframed, and immature teachers
1 their meagre supervision, and theil
/ lack of an effective system of COM
pulsory attendance.
The educational weakness revealed
BY the experience of the last two
years are due very largely to the In
adequacy of rural and village schools
The country is becoming thorough,
aroused to the peril that lies in illit'
eracy, but it should not forget tha'
adult illiteracy is twice as prevaien
In the rural population as in the ur
ban population. and that the perma

must await the solution OF the rura
school problem. That the proportion
of adult illiterates is three time'
higher among the native-born chill

er fact that points to the same ines
capable conclusion.
Outside of the urban centers con.

AUSTRIAN PEACE TREATY
HAS BEEN OUTLINED
Summary Has Been Made Public and
the Greater Part Is Identical To
German Document-New Clauses.

reffltan itNuiiitHt-NcN ttt>S>
A summary OF the Austrian peace
traety was presented to the smaller
nations last Thursday for examina-
ticn.
The greater part of the summary
is devoted to those clauses which are
practically identical with the German
treaty.
The new clauses are chiefly those
dealing with frontiers. finance and
the internal affairs of the new states
and of Austria itself Under the lat
ter heading comes the disputed pro-
visions for the protection of racial
minorities in the new states, against
which it is understood the representa-
tives of the new states may address
protest TO the council of four and
also ask for revision of the financial
clauses, particularly that part requir-
ing the new states TO compensate
Austria for public property.
Austria is bound by the treaty to
respect the rights and privileges of
racial minorities in what is left to
her of her ancient domains, including
the right TO use their own languages,
although Austria is expressly author
ized 10 make the teaching of German
obligatory.
The treaty will consist of a pream-
BILE and Ii parts, the preamble and
section one embodying the covenant
of the league of nations as is the
treaty with Germany.
Part two deals with frontiers. That
with Czeeho-Slovakia follows practi-
cally the old Bohemian frontier al
though with the reservation of a
possibility of making minor changes
later, Austria retains on the west
her old frontier with Switzerland, the
question of the union of Vorartberg
with Switzerland having apparently
been dropped, despite the plebiscites
already undertaken in that province
and Switzerland. The southern front
Ter is not determined in the treaty

aes, Including also some of the reserv-
ed geographical provisos, and clauses
establishing mixed commissions to de-
termine them later, The sections re-
ferring to Italy are all omitted 9th
ers deal with the future relations of
Austria with Czecho-Sloyakia. Po-
land. Hungary and Russia. Here are
found the stipulations for the protec-
tion of racial minorities which so far
as the minorities in Austria are CON

of rights" as part of the Austrian
constitution,

Part eight, on reparations is blank
Part nine. dealing with finance, may

COMING ADMZNLSTRA TON
University of illinois,


TO THE PEOPLE OF NEW MEXICO: The RESPONSE
bility and the opportunity which the board of regents
placed before me last Tuesday great. Until have
had time thoroughly to consider the situation
policy or plan in detail be announced. 1t is my
desire to throw my life into the labor of helping up
build the University of New Mexico. Effective up
building of this institution demands at the outset two
steps,
The first step the unsel6sh cooperation of
all citizens and of industrial business, civic and other
organizations and of the Alumni association with the
board, the faculty and the president The work hand
requires money and brains and eager students for the
purpose of making growing institution commensurate
with the magnitude of the state of New Mexico The
board OF regents the faculty, and the friends OF the
university to be congratulated upon visible evil
dences OF increasing interest in the cause of the Uni
versiy of New Mexico and of zeal for public education
in general. The of education demands that
and women everywhere work unitedly for the youth of
today and for the untold thousands yet to be born.
The second step is for to meet the needs of the
state in order that the University of New Mexico in ef
hcen and sympathetic coordination with other educa-
tonal institutions to meet better the needs of
people, This work of wise adjustment of school and
of society is difficult one, not to be accomplished by
revolution but rather through the pansakng
of study and practical application.
The articulation of the University of New Mexico with
the activities of the people ultimately should touch many
phases of life in the state and the nation The health
physical and mental wellbeing of the people, is
be nurured by the hygenc Investigations and nstruc
ton centerng at the state university There points
of contact to be made between industry and business
and the university in order that graduates whether
employees employers, may participate leaders
in the economic field There the sciences and
and best traditions of the past be preserved, cher
ished and transmitted to students who will become
torch-bea4efs OF culture ia New Mexico There is
tfc research to be done in order that by may pro-
ceed to the frontier of human knowledge and then PEN
citrate to new fields of profitable discovery.
Charged with the practical administration of the
university shall strive to be at the active
tive of the board the captain and colleague of the fac
ulty the friend and counsellor of students and faithful
servant of all of the people in the of New Mexico
No unaded is equal to all of these things, and
shall make errors Our abiding platform, however,
will be the ideals of universal education and of the
American republic.

PERSH|NC LhUDS
PART PLAYED BY
F|GHT|N FIRST
Initial A, {, F. Unit Sent To
France is Praised By Corn
mander in Chief; Took Part
in Many Fierce Battles.

The Journal has received letter
from Sam L. Sutherland, an Albu-
querque boy, q member of Company
d. First supply train, A. E. F. The
letter was written at Standt, Ger
many. Young Sutherland enlisted at
the outbreak of the war and has been
overseas nearly two years. He says
the divisions casualty list was $4,000,
the largest among the eXpeditionary
forces.
With Mr.. Sutherland's letter was q
copy of one from Gen. John j. Per-
shing to Maj. Gen. Edward f. Nc
Glachlin, Jr., commanding the First
division. After calling attention to
the fact that the First division has
the distinction of having been the
first combat unit to arrive in France
and paying a high tribute to the mo-
rale and efficiency of the r,eli. Gen
eral Pershing's letter says:
after serving IN the Sommarvller
and Ansauville sectors. the division
entered the line near Montdidier. and
on Many 2S took Cantigny This at
tack may be considered as the begin
ming of American offensive operators
and it's success had buch to do with
the creation of the splendid spirit
NY
troops. In the Aisne- Marne offensive,
the division participated in some of
the most desperate fighting of the
entire war. and helped to insure the
success of the allied attack. During
the early part of August the division
moved to the Saizerais sector. and
shortly after took part in the st Mi
hiel operation, making a deep ad-
vance through the Rupt de Madt
across the Vigneulles-St. Benoid road
to Hatton- Chattel. In the Meuse-Ar-
gonne battle the division was twice
thrown into the line-on October l,
at which time It pushed forward in
spite of heavy resistance. and on No
vember 5 when. after a march of
twenty kilometers to reach the jump
ing off line. it attacked the enemy
and marched on Sedan.
'Since the signing of the armistice
the First division, as a part of the
army of occupation. has had the
honor of safeguarding the results of
its victories, and for its conduct in
this work have only praise and
commendation."
