 EDUCATION IN ARMY

The families and friends of the 19O,- the societies and organizations which are engaged in Americanization and educa- tional work will be interested in a two reel motion picture film, which has just been prepared by the War Department showing the work at the Recruit Edu- cational Center at Camp Upton, New York.

 The Americanization Work which is being performed by the army at it's re- cruit educational centers is one of the greatest advances that has recently been made and this picture shows the recruit at work and play.
 The scenes show the classes in the various gradss-the teaching of English and elementary mathematics-togethe with a number of views of the supervised recreational activities of the new soldier
 When 1t realized that one out of every four men drafted into the army during the world war was unable to intelligently read the daily newspaper. the value tc the country of the arny's educational work can be better appreciated.
 That over 1.400, 900 men. citizens o1 our country, which brides itself upon its educational advantages. could be classi | fed as illiterate is astounding. but hat l the entire manpower of the nation bee called the number as classified would have increased in all probability in pro | portion.
 The army through It's schools today, i bringing education, elementary or ad vanced to 1eo.o0o men and the films t be exhibited show the elementary schoo work that is being done at the recruit ed ucational centers where non-Eng is speaking and illiterate recruits are giy en their preliminary education.

The Knox Letter.

The hnOX IeIters Dear MT. Smith:
 This is in reply to your letter of the 20th instant, requesting me to give you an unbiased opinion concerning the fitness of Senator Frank B. Brandegee for re- election by the people of Connecticut to the United States senate, as justified by his record during the past 15 years.
 There is no man in the senate of the United States today for whom his col league son both sides of the chamber en- certain warmer affection or higher rnsnect than Senator Brandegee of Connecticut
 The one is the tribute to h.5 uI,,e, rat- Ing courtesy and Liberation the other to his ripe legislative experience, sound judgment and splendid courage.
 From the date of his entrance into the senate, Senator Brandegee took rank with its soundest lawyers skilled parliamenta- rians and clearest-headed statesmen.
 His record of the past two years, for Eealous patriotism and unselfish devotion 10 the institutions he was sworn to up- hold, has challenged the notice and com V1anded the admiration of men and wom- en who love liberty and independence everywhere.
 Senator Brandegee has refused to bend the knee to uncontrolled power" or to be influenced by the blandishments of those Wno were 10 De pTonled Dy us eX- ercise.
 There are spots on the sun, and there have been times in Senator Brandegee's 1 career when we have not all agreed with him; but, take him day in and day out I he has no colleague whose record for use | fulness and intelligent grasp of the na- tion's affairs exceeds his own.
 As a type, have always liked to think | he portrayed the candor, intrepidity and 1 mettle of his great constituency-the vir. 1 tues of a commonwealth where differ cnces are adjusted without rancor, anc where honest, intelligent and loyal ser l vice is appreciated and rewarded.
 It is impossible, for me to think other | wise than that Senator Brandegec vii ] Triumph over the malice and n%5repre sentation seeking his defeat; and m deepest regret is that l could not come t i Connecticut and give my testimony nor in detail as to the senator's worth. l would indeed have been a labor of wsr1 affection and profound respect.
 Sincerely yours,
 PHILANDER c. KNOX

JOHNSON THREATENS
 REPRISALS FOR ANY
 DESERVING DELEGATE
Hiram Says He's Satisfied and Perfectly COntented So
 Far

Chicago, June 9.-Senator Johnson gave notice today that he would take measures of reprisal against any dele gate pledged to his support by results of primary election who did not "stick." Speaking to newspaper cor respondents, he declared his oppon- ents were using every means and kind to shake the allegiance of some of his supporters, mentioned "gold" and ad- ded that if any delegate broke away "I'll take his case to his people,"
 Reiterataing his opposition to the league of nations, Senator Johnson said that unless the platform commit tee took corresponding stand he would "ask the convention, and the people of the United States to reject it's proposals"
 "The convention is tightening up more and more," the senator declared "It will get to balloting day after to- morrow, and as the time approaches my confidence increases.
 l" Ithink therell be quite number of ballots. We'll not endeavor to star with a tremendous number, but as the baloits are taken, think you'll observe later that we'll move along.
 T presume the platform decision will be made tonight in the commit tee. My future, course as to activities within the convention will be deter. mined entirely by the decision son tht platform.

before the convention have requisite qualifications for the presidency there can be no reason for refusing q nomination to that individual except the old theory of striving for immc- diate success rather than ultimate vic tory.
 i Somebody suggested that former Senator Crane favored the league with reservations.
 Il don't doubt that" the senator said, "and 1 am endeavoring to get the republican party to take q republi- can attitude, an American attitude, and we'll ask the party to take that position.
 The senator said he had seen MT. Crane three times today. but had no oportunity to talk with him at length
 Reports that the convention plan ned to nominate a candidate before adopting q platform. were mentioned
 'I think the usual method will be pursued" Senator Johnson replied He did not think it likely, he added, that the convention would attempt to limit debate on the league of nations if debate became necessary.
 Any man who betrays his people, or betrays me" he said in breaking off volley of questions, and referring to primary delegates, whether for gold or any other reasons, I'll take his case to his people, and I'd like to make that plain. l don't believe there will be any such betrayal, look for full obedience to the peoples mandate though efforts of every kind and every character, and l say that advlsedly with all it means, are being made to move them. 1 think those efofrts will be futile."
 After remarking that he had been having delightful time" with Ne braska, Oklahoma and Michigan dele gations which called upon him or up on whom he called, the senator re verted to the league of nations.
 "Ive been telling you very frankly every day my opinion on the league oi nations" he said. What do you heal from my opponents about it, what dc they tell you, where do they stand 7
 He waited moment.
