H|NDRANCE To
COLLEGE LIFE
Students in American Uni
verSities Can Be Success
full In All Lines, Even If
They Work Way Through

FAY NoRHtHo JOURNAL SPECIAL LEASED wIFEl
Boston, Feb ga student in an
American university can be success
ful in study, sports and social life
ePth when compelled to support
himself throughout his college ca
reer, according to the findings of
an inquiry conducted at Harvard,
Poverty, the Investigators report, is
not an insuperable barrier to stu
dents who have initiative and cour-
age.
The inquiry showed that some
self-supporting students earned $5,-
600 or more in their four years at
the university and that 1t was not
unusual for a student to earn $3,-
600, stand well in his classes and
be leader in student activities.
One man who earned the latter
sum belonged to four college clubs,
rowed on the varsity crew and was
among the best known men at col
lege Another who earned a SINH
lar amount was an officer of his
class, was elected to three clubs,
sang on the glee club, and was
first marshal of Phi Beta Kappa.
A student who earned his way
from start to finish and was cap
tain of the university team told
the inquirers that the fact that he
was self-supporting did not, so far
as he knew, exclude him from any
of the club life at college. In fact
every man interviewed, except two,
said the self-supporting student
was at no disadvantage nor under
any social stigma. On the contrary,
many stated that college men were
likely to admire man more be-
cause he was earning his way.
Some of the occupations which
enabled Harvard men to pay their
way were those of waiter, tutor, re-
porter, artists model, bookkeeper,
farm laborer, day laborer, organist,
choir singer, clerk, musician in or
chestra, editorial writer, librarian,
social service worker, ticket taker,
athletic coach, physical director,
tire builder and steward. The east
est way for a self-supporting stu
dent to earn his expenses with a
minimum expenditure of time was
tutoring or acting as a tutor-com-
panion.

3 TRANSC0NTINENTAL
DIRIGIBLE AIR LINES
TO BE INAUGURATED

New York, Feb. 26.-Plans for
the operation of three transcontin-
tai dirigible airship lines for pas
sengers and several smaller middle
western lines, were announced
here today by Charles Ora, head
of the Commercial Aircraft syndi-
cate, which is supported by the
Goodyear Tire and Rubber COM
pany of Akron, o. Mr.. Ora de-
clared that he had made arrange
ments with the Goodyear company
for the construction of thirty-fi five
ships, ten each of six, twelve and
fifty passenger capacity, which will
be on the middle western
lines, and five ships having a
capacity of 200 passengers which
will be used on the transcontinental
lines.
The first routes will take in the
following cities, he said: Kansas
City, Denver, Tulsa, Oklahoma City,
Fort Worth, New orleans, Jackson,
Memphis and Springfield, Ill. The
first small ship will arrive here
tomorrow and after being exhibited
at an aeronautical exposition, it will
be flown back to Kansas City and
put into commission.
While no definite tariff rates
have been fixed, officials of the
syndicate estimated that the cost of
passenger airship travel would not
exceed five cents mile.

LESS OFFICERS
PROVIDED FOR
IN ARMY BILL
5000 Fewer Commissioned
Men Than Asked for Are
Included in Reorganization
Measure Before House.

Washington, Feb. 26. - EiSht
thousand fewer army officers than
asked for by the war department,
are provided by the house army re-
organization bill formally presented
today by Chairman Kahn of the
military affairs committee. Reduc-
tions In the number of officers were
made in every branch of service,
but the sharpest cut was for the
aviation service which received
only 1,514 of the $500 asked for.
In all the department sought 26,-
179 officers and the house commit
tee granted 1880.
None of the various plans offered
to the committee for recognizing
the army was adopted by the COM
mittee. Instead the committee re-
port as submitted by Mr.. Kahn,
pointed out the national defense
act of 1916 was used as the work
ing basis, the new law being a re-
vision of the old one.
Extensive as are the changes
made" said Mr.. Kahn's report,
they alter in no material respect,
the military system established by
the national defense act, but mere
ly make those changes in details
which the lapse of time and the eX-
perience of the war have shown to
be necessary.
THE military establishment will
remain as now determined by law
consisting of a comparatively small
and regular army of professional
soldiers, backed by large reserve
of citizen officers and an organized
national guard, subject to consid-
erable federal supervision and LA
BILE in time or war to be drafted
into the army for general military
service.
Perhaps the most notable
change which it has been proposed
to introduce in the regular army is
the principle of flexibility of organ
ization" the report added, declaring
that the provision giving the presi-
dent the right to outline the tactical
formation will enable "the army to
keep pace with changing condi-
tions."
No mention to universal training
is made in the report but Chairman
Kahn announced he expected to ap-
point tomorrow the subcommittee
which will investigate all questions
of training scheme and frame the
bill to be submitted on this
subject. The committee to be COM
posed of seven members, will in
clude a majority of supporters of
universal training.

The Clause Is One of Those

Washington. Feb. 26-The re-
publican reservation regarding
mandatories, attached to the peace
treaty last November over the op-
position of thirty-three democratic
senators, was readopted by a vote
of 6S to 4 in the senate today after
administration leaders had with
drawn their opposition to it.
1t was the first time a qualifica-
ton of the treaty had been adopted
with the acquiescence of the demo-
cratic managers and the first time
more than two-thirds of the entire
isenate membership had voted. to-
gether in approving any reserva-
I (tion. The result was not generally
regarded as indicating sudden
break in the senate situation, how
ever, since the reservation was one
Of those to which the democrats
had agreed in the recent bipartisan
conference to adopt without
change.
Thirty democrats and thirty
eight republicans were recorded in
favor of the reservation after Sen
ator Hitchcock, the democratic
leader had declared on the floor
that the effect would be only to
recite a principle already estab-
lished under the treaty itself and
under federal laws. 1t provides in
substance that no mandate could be
accepted by the United states with
out the consent of congress. The
four who voted in the negative were
Senators Jones of New Mexico;
Kendrick, of wyoming; Walsh, OF
Montana, and Williams, of Missis-
sippi, all democrats. Explaining
his vote, senator walsh declared he
had mot the slightest objection to
the reservation except that it Is un-
necessary.
Senator Hitchcock did not vote.
A new reservation providing that
the ratification would not be bind
ing unless the president formally
transmitted it to the other powers
within thirty days after the senate
acted, was presented by Senator
Brandegee of Connecticut, q re-
publican irreconcilable, for future
consideration.

COLO. RIVER BREAKS
THROUGH THE LEVEES

10y MORNING JOURNAL SPECIAL LEASED wiHsl
Caiexico, Calf, Feb 90 - The
Colorado river broke through the
Ockerson levee late yesterday t%o
and one-half miles south of the
junction of the Ockerson and Saiz
levees. A second break occurred
this morning three miles south Of
the end of the railroad on the
levee
Hundreds of men and teams
working today were unable to re-
pair the breaks. Fifty thousand
acres of rich land were being in
undated by flood waters which are
heading for weak point on Vol
cano lake levee.
Both breaks in the river levees
are below the Mexican border.
Should the Volcano lake levee give
way the water would pour into I'M
perial valley. Trainloads of rock
were being rushed today to
strengthen the levee at points of
danger. Attempts to stop the breaks
in the Ockerson and raise levees
were abandoned late today. 1t was
expected there would be a fall in
the river within a few hours. Re
ports from Yuma, however, were
that the fall would be followed by
another rise.

CANADA IS SATISFIED
THAT SHE IS TO BE A &
MEMBER Of LEAGUE

Ottawa, Feb. 26.-Satisfaction
that the status of Canada as a
member of the league OF nations
has been definitely fixed" was ex-
pressed by the Duke of Devonshlre
at the opening of parliament today.
This passage in the governor gem
erals speech was regarded as sig
nificant in view of the recent pros
tests forwarded to Great Britain by
the dominion cabinet against ac-
ceptance by Great Britain OF any
notifications of the covenant, par
ticularly the Lenroot reservation IN
the United states senate which
would prevent Canada from having
a vote in the league assembly.
In the European economic field.
the governor general said, clear
vision was still impossible. The un-
settled state of exchange, the lack
of international credits and infla-
ton of paper currency, combined
with the scarcity of raw materials
and the demoralization of labor and
transport united. he explained to
retard production and restrict the
rebuilding waste caused by the war.
But, he continued, lit is cause for
thankfulness that of all countries
affected by the war, Canada has
maintained record of social order
and Industrial and commercial
prosperity second to none.

mated today by President Wilson TO

Phoenix. Ariz., Feb. 26.-Former

problems" Mr.. Hunt saidl having

consider the appointment an honor
to the state and myself"
Notification to former Governor
Hunt of his appointment was one
of the last official acts of Secretary
Lansing. The former governor said
today he had received ON January
|27 the following from Secretary
Lansing:
at gives me pleasure to inform
YOU that the president desires 10
designate you as minister to SIAM
The president has asked me TO con-
vey to you this information ana TO
express to you the sincere hope
that YOU will feel inclined to accept
the appointment when it Is tender
ed to you.
81 shall be glad to convey to the
president your decision in regard to
this matter in order that the nee
essary steps may be taken TO COM
plete the formalities in connection
with the appointment"
News of the appointment OF the
former governor was received with
much interest here today by politi-
cal leaders who, despite of Mr..
Hunts past assertion that he was
not in politics, had considered him
a figure to be reckoned with in the
next campaign. Rumors had been
current that he would be urged To
become a candidate for the United
States senate but these were met by
the former governor recently with
statement that he was not con-
sldering the senatorial candidacy
at this time.
Senator Mark Smith, of Arizona,
who was here today from Tucson,
said of former Governor Hunts ap-
pointment:
II am delighted to hear of 1t and
not for political reasons. You know,
the republicans would like to stir up
up a contest between Hunt and me,
for the senatorship, but there was
no such contest. l am glad that
Mr.. Hunt has been recognized by
the president and l know that his
choice is an excellent one"

ALLEGE GROSS
VIOLATION Of
MERIT SYSTEM

Springfield, Mass, Feb. 26.-
Congress was scored for an alleged
attack on the merit system
through the exemption of Volstead
act agents and inspectors from
civil service examinations in the
report of the league council read
today in the annual conference of
the national civil service reform
league. The report also cites the
"deplorable inactivity of the anti
saloon league to the governments
invasion of a high moral and civil
principle"
Ellery C. Stowell, an authority
on international law and trade re-
lations spoke on the large part
diplomacy must play in information
al relations in the next few years,
especially in working out problems
in China and South America. The
Chinese question, he said, is more
important than that in Russia and
unless properly handled means fric-
tion or war with Japan.
The appointment of cambridge
Colby as secretary of state was
classed as a glaring example of an
unsatisfactory method of selecting
men for important posts by Major
Montgomery Schuyler, former min
lister to Ecuador, at the luncheon
session of the league. While not
questioning the personal qualifica-
tions of Mr.. Colby, he was classed
by the speaker as absolutely with
out diplomatic experience. The ex-
ample was cited as emphasizing the
necessity of reorganization Of the
department of state and through
this the foreign service, to bring up
men who have developed their tai
ents IN the service.

Albany, n. Y, Feb. 26. - New
York state democrats, through
their delegates assembled in un-
official convention here today, Sc
Ilected the delegates at large and
the alternates at large to the DEM
ocratic national convention at San
Francisco, adopted a party plat
form, and by resolution instructed
the delegation at San Francisco to
vote as unit on all matters The
delegates at large are: tleh
Governor Alfred +. Smith ana
Miss Elizabeth MarDury, of New
York; Miss Harriet May Mills, OF
Syracuse, and Louis Desbecker,
Buffalo.
There was only one furry dur
ing the three hours the delegates
were in session This came when
Mayor G, II. Lunn, of Schenecta-
DIV. endeayored to substitute for
piatform plank calling for repeal
of the federal prohibition amend
ment, plan recommending an
amendment to the federal consti-
tuition providing that hereafter all
federal amendments be submitted
to direct vote OF the people ior
ratification, After considerable
feryid oratory, the Lunn amend
ment was defeated as a substitute
for the repeal plank, but immeul-
ately afterward on motion OF an
other delegate it was added as
separate plank.
The platform declared that the
democratic party of the nation
had enacted more constructive ana
progressive laws lin half a dozen
years than the republican party IN
half a century" demanded lnine-
diate ratification Of the peace
treaty, indorsed the administration
of Governor Smith, congratulated
President Wilson on his steady re-
covery OF health, opposed restrlc-
lions upon free speech and de-
clared in favor of repeating the
federal prohibition amendment.
The prohibition plank, which May
or Lunn unsuccessfully sought 10
have eliminated, follows:
1--WE are unalterably opposed to
prohibition by federal amendment.
We believe it to be an unreason-
able interference with the righS
of the states as guaranteed by the
constitution. We feel that the re-
cent enactment was the imposition
of the idea of an active minority
against the wishes of the great
majority of the American people.
We, therefore, declare for its
speedy repeal and to the end thar
the personal liberty of the people
of our state may be thoroughly
safeguarded until such time as
this repeal may be brought about,
we declare the right of our state
in the exercise of its sovereign
mower to so construe the concur
rent clause of the eighteenth
amendment as to be in accord
with the liberal and reasonable
views of our people"
Complete enfranchisement OF
women and their full and equal
representation in party affairs ana
a strong campaign of education az
a means of curblng radicalism are
urged in the platform.
