START SUMMER SCHOOL TO STUDY
 FOREIGN TRADE

Washington, D. C., June 25. - A Summer School, or "Plattsburg," for the intensive study of Pan American just been organized in Washington. It will open July 19 and close Au- gust 21, a period of thirty days.
 The movement for the school was initiated by Director General John Barrett of the Pan American Union, the international organizations of the American Republics devoted to the development of commerce and friend ship among them, and former United States Minister to Asiatic and Latin American countries. It Is the result held since the war with foreign trade interests And educational experts representing the principal conner eial centers of the United States.
 The plan has the hearty interest of the Department of Commerce of the United States and many of the foreign embassies and legations. It Is assured of the support of not only the leading exporting and importing, manufacturing, financial and ship ping interests of the United States and Latin America but of represen- tative educators of both continents It will open the way te a new field of activity and employment for young men and women of both North and South America, and it will sat- isfy a long felt want of firms inter- ested or engaged in foreign trade to send members of their staff for for efgn trade study without long ab. sence from duty.
 Director General Barrett will serve as chairman of the advisory board
The Bridgeport times and evening farmer., 1920-06-25

and the staff of lecturers will be headed by Dr: R. s. MacElwee, the new Chief of the Bureau of Foreign; and Domestic Commerce. Other lecturers will include foreign trade experts of this same Bureau, the Pan American Union; the Department of State, the Bureau of Education, Com mercial Attaches of the Foreign Embassies, and special Spanish and Portuguese language experts:
 Dr: Clarence J. Owens, Director General of the Southern Commercial Congress, who has had extended ex- perience as an organizer and direc- tor, will be the executive director, and the headquarters and office of the school have been opened in the new building of that organization at 1000 Vermont avenue in this city. of Commerce of the United States, and Sener Don F: Pezet, Ambassador of Peru, and other distinguished au- thorities will deliver the principal ad-
 dresses at the formal opening an
 July IS.
 Four main conditions, as an-
 nounced by the sponsors of the
 movement, inspired the organization
 of the school; first, the unpreeedent- ed critical conditions facing United
 States trade, especially in Latin
 America and also, to a considerable
 degree, in other parts of the world second, the actual need and rapidly growing demand from representative firms engaged in foreign trade fol men and women trained and equip ped for the field of foreign com merce, especially in Latin America third, the wish of such firms to 'sen6 their own young men and women fol intensive study without prolonged | absence from duty; fourth, the de sire of young men and women l whose time is limited, to attend fo1 | a brief period some intensive schoo which will prepare them to mee l this need and demand.
 As the opinion is almost unanimou. | among commercial interests that n, time is to be lost in training persons

Local Man Taking Promin- ent Part in Arranging
 Details fer Convention,

Esa Francisco, June 25.-When the Democratic national convention meets here June a5 it will have available for the first time accommo- dations in the Exposition Memorial Auditorium building sufficient to heuge AndeE one roof not only the convention proper but Committee meetings and Headquarters for cam didatees as well.
 These are largely to be utilized, according to J. Bruce Kremef, Of Butte. Mont, vice chairman Of the National Committee, thus avoiding the inconvenience and delay usually attendant upon holding minor con ferenees away from tine convention hall.
 Tn addition to the main audi tersurn, the maximum capacity of which MT. Kramer estimated at 12,- 800 persons, the building contain two auxiliary halls, one that will seat 900 persons and the other T50. There are 19 rooms that may be used for smaller meetings.
 A fence around the entire building, with entrance gates for ticket-hold- ing spectators, delegates, officials and news writers, will be used by police and convention authorities to prevent crowds Iron, rushing doorkeepers to obtain admittance. This has oc- cured several times during national party conventions.
 The auditorium for three weeks past has been a scene of noisy ae- tivity> Carpenters, have erected the speakers platform, 30 by 40 feet and 10 feet high, on the south side of the big hall just in front of the great organ and opposite the main en- trapce, Several feet lower and ex- tending along the greater part of that side of the auditorium is the press section with seats for 516 working news writers, Back of the speakers platform in sound-proof rooms are telephone booths and fully equipped accommodations for press associations and newspaper men.
 The central portion of the main floor is reserved for the 1092 dele gates and like number of alter mates. Around this space a solid railing has been raised to keep back spectators that are admitted to this floor. To aid these onlookers a plat form one foot high has been built over the entire space they will oc- cupy. The balcony, sweeping around three sides of the auditorium, will seat 4,416 persons.
 Covering the dome is canopy weighing 16 tons that forms a false ceiling. This and draperies on the walls and in the corners are de- signed to improve the acoustics.
 The auditorium will be equipped with all modern electrical devices including sound-carryfng wires and 2 telephone system that will enable the chairman to transmit orders from the platform to the sergeant-at-arm: and other officials and these in turr to speak to their deputies in an. part of the great hah-

Despite the fact that the $2,ee0.- oee feur-story granite and concrete was erected only five years ago, the interior has been entirely renovated and reprinted. Flags are to be used in the deeoratiens,. which with se- cret decorative effect to be presented opening day, are described as "typi- cally Califernian.''
 Weather records running back to- 1871 indicate cool "tep coat wealth CT for the convention period. Over coats and hats of spectators and par ticipants may be checked free of charge in permanent stations scat tered throughout the building.
 The auditorium stands in the open civic center that offers much space for parking automobiles. One corner touches Market street, the eitys principal thoroughfare, which has two surface street car lines running in each direction, and t is Il blocks from the Palace Hotel where national committee headquarters are located.
 The San Francisco committee that
 pledged s125,eoo to bring the con- vention here is headed by Charles w. Fay, postmaster, George F. Mara, of Bridgeport, Conn, representing Hcmess 2. Cummings, of Stamford, Conn.,, Chairman of the Democratic National Committee, has been here for nearly six months overseeing ar rangements for the convention.

TRY TO RELIEVE
 MIND STRAINS IN EXAMINATIONS

Cambridge, Mass, June 25.-The faculties of Harvard University and Massachusetts Institute of Technology have taken action to dispel or to allay the undergraduate body of fnai examinations.
 The tests which the students of the Institute have undergone this month may be the last of the kind at 'Tech." A committee of faculty members, alumni and undergraduates have been appointed to investigate methods of testing the college mans knowledge and proficiency in studies other than by the customary exam lnatien. This step followed unsuc- cessful attempts te have the students accept the honor system.
 At Harvard there has been no consideration of the proposal to do away with examinations but there has been action to ease the mental strain which they put on the stu dents. The soothing charms attrf-
 buted to music, and it's power te stimulate sluggish minds te active
 thought, have been called upon as first aid te undergraduates beset with troublesome tests.
 Under the direction of Professo,
 A. T. Davison, university choir | master, musical recitals of ten min l utes each have been given daily 1T Appleton Chapel during the exam | nation season. They have been he1t | in the morning, just before the frs 1 of the day's examination was to be 1 gin. The programs consisted of ligh 1 classical selections, and proved ropu

world struggle for commerce.: this school will commence It's sessions as soon as possible, or on July 19; and endeavor to accomplish In thirty, days of intensive study, under the difec- tion of the best living experts. what might otherwise require six months or a year:
 That the school is needed and has 9 great opportunity is confirmed by the vast sum which the United States has now at stake in both world and Pan American trade. Late statis- ties show that the world foreign trade of the United States has grown in the last fifteen years from approxi- mateIy s2,50o, 100000 to over s10.- 0Oe, ,0ee,ee0 or 800 per cent, and Pan American trade, or that with the twenty countries of Central and America, from s45e,eeo;eeo te nearly sa,5e9, 9,eee,eeg, or 45e Der cent.
 It is also officially announced that the school is not organized for profit, and its expenses will be met by vol untary contributions and a small tui- ton based on actual cost. All in- quiries should be addressed to the Executive Director, Summer Echeel of Foreign Commerce, 1000 Vermont Avenue, Washington, D. c. As the number in attendance must be limit ed, application for registration by in dfviduals on behalf of themselves, oi by firms on behalf of those they ma. name, should be made as soon a. possible. The school will be opey to women as we'll as to men, witt both on the same basis of study ant opportunity.
 It is earnestly hoped by those 1, charge of this school that commer c4a1 organizations and firms will talk advantage of this opportunity t enter members of their staffs for it period of instruction.
