AFFECTS SUMMER SCHOOL.

Failure of Congress to pass the
pending District appropriation bill be-
fore the recess Saturday will mean
tho loss of the services of the sum-
mer or vacation schools. Under a
Continuing resolution. it was pointed
ont today by school officials. only one
twelfth of the $4,000 appropriation
aiiotted the summer schools last year
can be used, and this amount will be
TOO small to operate any of the insti-
tutions.
The delay in passing the appropria-
tion bill. which carries 100000 for the
oneration of the summer schools this
year. also is preventing Supt. Thurs
ton and Walter B. Patterson. director
Of special schools. from organizing
the summer school system. Hereto
fore June 1 found school officials
busily engaged in mapping out the
plans for the opening of the summer
schools
In previous years the summer
schools have opened around July
for a six weeks intensive coaching
course There were twenty summer
schools in operation last year. includ-
ing Mckinley Manual Training and
Dunbar High schools. The enrolment
in these institutions reached 1851.

Gov. Sproul announced he had a

SENATOR WATSON
GOES TO CHICAGO
Will Confer With Prospective
Members of Resolutions
Committee.

Senator Watson Of Indiana, who has
been in charge of the work of draft
ing tentative platform for the reDub-
lican national convention, left Wash
ington today for Chicago to confer
with prospective members of the reso-
lutions committee of the convention.
The tentative draft was finished at
a conference here yesterday, when a
plank on Mexico was added. The
Mexico plank was written by Senator
Fall of New Mexico. who headed the
Senate's special subcommittee on
Mexican affairs. and later was revised
in some minor respects at confer
ence attended by Senator Watson Sen
ator Lodge of Massachusetts. the re-
publican leader of the Senate, and a
number Of other prominent republi-
cans. 1t is understood to follow in
general the recommendations made by
Senator Fall in his report to the Sen
ate. declaring that unless conditions IN
Mexico are improved the United States
should intervene.
Silent on Prohibition.
All mention of prohibition is omit
ted from the tentative draft. and 1t
was understood that those who con-
ferred here would recommend against
any declaration on the subject. That
issue, it was suggested. should be re-
sarded as settled. The tentative draft
contains a declaration. however, urging
prompt ratification of the woman Suf-
frage amendment.
Another declaration still missing
from the platform is that relating to
the soldier bonus. The leaders here
said they were unrepared to make any
recommendation on the subject under
present conditions, and that plank
on that subject would be worked out
at Chicago.
No attempt was made to reach a
final decision on a plank relating to
the league of nations. Several tenta-
tive declarations have been drafted,
however, and will be laid before the
party chiefs at Chicago.
In its work the conference had be-
fore it the platform adopted by the
Virginia democrats and recently given
the approval of President Wilson. 1t
was said that every effort was made
to SO phrase the republican draft that
it would make the issues as clear and
direct as possible.
