INSPECT SUITABLE SITES
ON THE WEST COAST
FOR U. S. NAVAL BASES

Data is being collected and other
preliminary matters attended TO by the
Bureau of Yards and Docks for use by
the congressional commission that
will leave early IN November to inspect
a number of places that have been
suggested as suitable sites for naval
establishments on the Pacific Coast
The commission copsists of Senators
Ball. Mccormick and Keyes and Rep
.resentatives Padgett, Hicks. Butler,
Riordan and Kelley. 1t will inyesti-
gate the ..advisabiiity of establishing,
developing and maintaining a naval
base on San Francisco Bay or the wa
tiers tributary thereto" and will pre-
pare comparative estimates of the cost
of acquiring sites for them.
According to the law creating the
commission, its report is to be sub
mittod to Congress by December 81,
next. 1t will contain, among other
things, information concerning a deep
er channel TO the Mare Island Navy
Yard and a sufficient water basin at
that place. 1t also viii report on the
advisability and cost of establishing
an aviation base at Sand Point, Wash;
submarine base at San Pedro, Calf.
and submarine, destroyer and avia-
ton base at Port Angeles, Wash.
1t is not thought that the commits
sion will recommend abandonment of
the Mare Island station, which is in
accessible to the largest types of war
ships, but rather that it be kept to
take care of vessels up to draft of
26 feet. The latest designs of capital
ships call for draft of 3S feet, and
the Mare Island approaches are not
deep enough to accommodate such
vessels, and cannot be deepened with
out enormous expense. 1t is for this
reason that another naval establish
ment is needed on San Francisco Bay
or in the vicinity.

ANNAPOLIS AND THE CONSTI-
TUITION

Peggy Stewart Tea Party
Chapter of the Daughters of the
American Revolution, is this aft
ernoon observing its Constitu-
ton Day program, which was
deferred from last Friday, the
18th anniversary of the adoption
of the instrument by the Consti-
tutional Convention at Philadel-
phia. A paper by Mrs. Philip
Alger, historian of the Chapter,
which was printed i'll the Even
ing Capital last Friday. was for
mally read before the Chapter.
There are some condolences
about this observance that are
noteworthy. The name of the

the gravest portent and most far
reaching influence i'll the rebel
lion against the British govern
ment and recalls to Maryland
ers the fact that Maryland
stands first, in this and other re-
spects, in the story of the Revo-
luton. The General Assembly is
now i'll extraordinary session in
Annapolis because OF the adop-
ton of an amendment to the fed
eral Constitution. and is confront
ed with the proposition OF acting
upon another amendment to the
same instrument.
The General Assembly meets
in this extraordinary session in

WHAT SENATOR SMITH DID
FOR THE PUBLIC SCHOOLS

Senator John Walter Smith has
always manifested the deepest solicit
tude for the Public Schools and public
education. In 1895 and before thai
time the working people OF Maryland,
and the farmers, did not have as
much money as they have today
Senator Smith found that many poor
people were keeping their children
from school. and that these children
were being denied an education be.
cause their parents had no money TO
buy school books and were too proud
and self-respecting TO go as paupers
10 ask for the books. He thought that
all the children of the State, rich or
poor, white and colored. should have
an equal opportunity to get an edu-
cation and equip themselves for max
Ing a living He believed that tho
school should be free in fact as well
as in name, and they could not be
really free schools unless children
could attend them without cost. He,
therefore, prepared a bill at the SEES
sion of the General Assembly in 1896,
and introduced it into the Senate ap..
propriating $4,000 a year for the
purchase of school books, for the free
use of all the pupils in the public
schools, rich and poor alike. so that
all should be equal and that there
should be no class distinctions and
that no child should be deprived OF an
education because its parents were
unable to buy books.
Senator Smiths strong personal
influence, and the Justice Of his
cause prevailed and his bill was en-
acted into law as Chapter 135 OF the
Acts of 1896. When he introduced
this bill Senator Smith made a pow.
erful speech which carried conviction
to the Senate.
Senator Smiths law required the
various Boards of School Commits
sioners to purchase the necessary
school books and to furnish them free
OF cost to all pupils in the public
schools. The act requires the School
Commissioners to furnish annually to
the State Board of Education the title,
the name of the publisher, and the
net price paid for each text book pur.
chased
For this splendid law all the peo-
pie OF Maryland whose children at
tend the public schcols-white and
colord alike-have reason to be CRATE
full to Senator John Walter Smith.
AS Governor also Senator Smith
did a fine service for the public
schools in taking them out of politics
by the reorganization OF the system
and making provision for the appoint
ment o. a state Superintent Of Edu,
cation.

MISSION FULFILLED;

that the American forces in the
Adrianc will soon be recalled. The

have practically completed their mis-
sion it was stated.
The State Department has not been

reached between Premiers Gioiotu
and Millerand relating to the
Adriatic. So far as has been made
known. the views of the United
States in regard TO the Adriatic set
tiement 1ave lot changed II mas been
Dointed out however. that President
Wilson favored an independent state
between Italy and Jugo-Slavia, and
that the proclamation of Gabrielle
D'Annunzio, although not taken OIL

erects an independent state, but I'M

state President Wilson had in mind
would have been under Jugo-Slay in

If confirmation is received OF the
reported agreement, it would cause
no surprise here if President Wilson

and possibly to France also, taking
exception TO a departure from the de-
cisions made at Paris, and reached
