disgrace. The larger outlook is off cred by these schools, in the, voca- .tional training courses. There are more than 100 professions, trades and pursuits from which to choose.
 "One of the most interesting of these study-centers is the School of Agriculture and Animal Husbandary at Camp Grant, Illinois. The courses are conducted with the cooperation of specialists of the University of Chicago and the University of Illi- nois. The Government has stock farms here and breeds all the types of animals under study. Pupils are thoroughly instructed in the breed ing and care of dairy and beef cat tie, horses, sheep, swine and poultry. Governor Lowden, of Illinois, has shown great personal interest in this part of the work. He has, in the vicinity of the camp, large and well equipped stock farm where every phase of stock and cattle raising is carried on. Pupils have the privilege of making frequent visits to this farm and of observing in detail all its activities. Soldiers proving proficient in this branch of industry can, after leaving the army take up homesteads and become sue cessful farmers and stock breeders
 Men of a mechanical bent find open to them at several camps and posts courses of practical study in the handling of internal combus- ton engines as used in airplanes, motorcycles, trucks and tractors.
 Much valuable constructive work is done in other lines and soldier students may become practical. printers, plumbers, far riers, painters, woodworkers. radio operators. blacksmiths and tele- grarhers.
 A large meat packing establish ment in Chicago recently has em- ployed as meat inspectors, four graduates of the Army school, at of $250 a month. In the same city firm of bread bakers is paying salaries of $35 to $55 week to graduates of the Army school for Cooks and Bakers.

in the capital. Cash is needed and man pays when he eats.
 Conditions in Havana are of lit tie concern to the wealthy element from the States that will be mi grating to the island during the win ter. But for folk of ordinary means, with two weeks for recreation, a big bank roll is needed. About the lowest hotel rate is $7 a day for room and bath. And this is not at the best places, for there rates are much higher, and along toward the racing season the $7 rooms will fetch twice that amount.
 Americans living in Havana pour out a tale of woe to friends from the States. The women seem to be hit the hardest. Price tags in stores selling mems wear show that a good pair of mems low shoes cost as high as $25 and $s for cotton umbrella is bargain. Flannel trous- CTS are there for $25 and silk shirts for $50. A lot of odds and ends that a man needs cost more than twice the mark at home. The correspondent saw a panama hat valued at S4OO and the dealer de- clared that sugar men pay it with out blinking.
 Cigarettes selling for 20 cents a package at home cost 60 cents in Havana; and for $2 box of Amer ican candy they ask $7. Two cent American papers, three days old, cost i2 cents. You may get reason ably fair suit of clothes out of stock for $100. In most cases women's shirt waists, it is explained, cost three times home figures. The only exception in the upward trend is the straw hat, which is about on the American scale.
 The only paper money in circu- lation on the island is American. The bills are so worn and utterly filthy that a man parts with them rather gladly.

MANY SOLDIERS ATTENDING
 SCHOOL IN UNITED STATES

SAN FRANCISCO-More t han 100000 soldiers are attending the schools established by the United States army and when the program is made fully operative, there will be more soldier-students in the country than there are regular college students, according to army officers stationed here.
 In addition to the courses giving training in trades and professions, schools for illiterates have been es- tablished by the army. In these study centers men who can neither read nor, write English are given a basic~ education. More than 2,OOO teachers will be employed in the army schools.
 The fact that fully one-fourth of the boys and young men of the country can neither read nor write was brought out by the figures pre- pared by the draft boards at the time the United States went into the war. Further. it was shown that only small proportion of them have any real training that will take them out of the ranks of hard labor, and put them where they can earn a comfortable liveli- hood as skilled workers.

While The News is convinced that the law requiring annual labc.: on mining claims is of very little value to any mining commur .ty. we believe Congress should let 1t alone until such time as substi- tute can be found which will really serve the purpore for which the existing law was created. Suspen. sion of the law in Alaska does not benefit the prospector. as is claimed jn today's dispatches from the na- tional capital. It benefits those who are holding large areas of mining ground for speculative purposes, but beyond that it creates only end less confusion and eliminates devel- opment work that otherwise might be done by conscientious owners If undeveloped ground. We cannot speak for mining communities of the Outside, but the interests of Alaska would be better served, we believe, were the question of suspension left entirely to Alaskans, who know best when suspension is needed and when it is not.

CUBAN PRICES HIGHER

American women, disturbed by the mounting cost or living. ought to visit Cuba, says correspondent of The Associated Press, writing from Havana. The trip, he says, would make them satisfied with conditions at home. .....
 Broadly speaking, prices in Hava- na are just about double the high mark in top notch American cities. One cause, according to Cuban deal CTS, is the unprecedented port con- gestion, apparently with little hope of early clearing, and which has re. suited in the ruin of hundreds of tons of necessary products. What ever the cause, the island is going through period of high cost, de- scribed by papers as more burden some than that found elsewhere on the face of the earth.
 Even in Cuba where it is pro- duced insufficient bulk to supply millions elsewhere, sugar retails on the Havana market around 24 cents pound. Grape fruit, going to waste few miles from the capital, sells there at New York quotations. Financial depression, the demand for ready and available cash, and the moratorium, under which banks put a limit on withdrawals to ten per cent, have failed to start price re- ductions in the hope of unloading luxuries to meet weekly payrolls. Until the moratorium end, hotels will not permit guests to sign bar and cafe checks, a time honored custom
