Is Too Much Labor
Board Told.

Chicago, June The cost OF living
is now descending, and railroad en-
ployes must take this fact into con-

showed q deficit of about SIT. Such
cases as this are extremes" Mr.. Whit

OFFER P[ANKS
ON EDUCATION,
HEALTH, ROADS
Subcommittee Of Repub-
lican National Body
Urges Cooperation by
State and Nation.
Other Reports Will Be
Submitted at Chicago
in Hope That Platform
May Cover Them.

New York, June 1.-Greater
cooperation between local and
national authorities in the en-
actment of legislation affecting
education, public health and
public roads and highways is urged in
a report made public Tuesday by sub
committee of the Republican national
New Jersey, is chairman. It is stated
that the report win be submitted to the
platform committee of the Republican
national convention at Chicago.
The chief cause of inadequate public
school facilities in many cases and local
tiles, the report states, is the financial
limitations of small teachers struggling
to maintain high standards of education.
Other conditions which could be rem
to the local communities are the in
adequacy of the schools, particularly
in the lower grades and the shortage
of trained teachers.
To Combat IIIiteracy.
Creation of an executive department
with a secretary of education as q men,
Der of the presidents cabinet is recon-
mended. together with the appropriation
BY congress of 800 0090,0tN to be APP
portioped among the states to combat
illiteracy and for AmericaniZation of
foreign born aud to increase teachers
salaries.
Financial assistance to states to build
roads under state authorities. with the
condition the state appropriate an equal
amount, and a system of national auto
mobile highways. are advocated.
The program outlined means to ac-
complish better co-ordinated public
health service through the cooperation
of civil agencies with the medical depart
ments of the army and navy.
For Physical Culture
4 lack of physical training in the
youth, revealed by the selective draft
would be remetiied by an extensive pro-
gram of physical culture in the public
schools, with emphasis on the training
of girls to fit them physically for mother
hood. says the subcommittee
The lack of wisdom of enacting further
legislation intended to curb peace time
sedition is pointed out in the report of
another subcommittee, of which Albert
J. Beveridge, of Indiana. is chairman.
The present criminal code is adequate
to punish all treasonablc acts in times
of peace, it is held.
To Review Oeportations.
Legislation to make possible the inter
vention of the federal courts in cases of
the deportation of undesirable aliens is
urged by the same subcommittee. This
function of government is now vested
in the departments of labor and justice.
Under legislation suggested by the Re
publican subcommittee the courts would
be given authority to review decisions of
officials now charged with the applica-
ton of immigration laws.
