Election Predictions.
This is from DAYTON:

HIS Is from LAY t'H.
"Gordon Woodbury., New Hamp-
shire's representative on the notlhca
ton committee. today told the demo
cratic candidate that the democrats
would carry that state and also would
defeat Senator Moses, republican"
Except for the result of four years
ago. people. would smile at this and
say: "Mr. Gordon certainly knows how
to make himself agreeable. He had
journeyed quite distance to pay his
! respects TO the candidate, and felt that
| the proper caper was to pledge his
own state. But think of New Hamp-
shire going democratic at a presiden-
tial election
Nevertheless. that is what the Gran
tie state did in 1916. The majority
was not as wide as church door, nor
as deep as a well, but it served. Viii
son and Marshall received the cleo
toral votes.
Several other states. hitherto reli-
ably republican in presidential years,
did the same thing. only on larger
scale. Ohio gave the democratic ticket
ninety Thousand majority. while Kan
sas went as high as thirty seven thou
sand. California made the most start
ling return Of all The republicans
| carried the state on local issues by
nearly two hundred thousand. and yet
lost it to the democrats on national
issues by nearly four thousand.
1t is the remembrance of this rec
ord that forbids smile today at any
election predictions. One may wonder
at the temeriry of man who in tim
like these is willing to venture pre-
diction, except as to state like Penn
sylvania, or one like Texas or Mis-
sissippi or South Carolina. So much
| is in fiux, and so much discomfort pre-
walls, the future is not much clearer
than mud. But as some very aston
ishing things happened only four years
ago they may happen again. All the
corners this year will, we may all be
sure, be very closely watched by both
sides.

land was urgently needed for extern
sion. A small farm is asked fol
Platteville while adjoining property
is wanted about the other schools.
New training school buildings are
requested for Oshkosh, River Falls
and Stevens Point. They will cost
approximately $S5O,000 or around
$250,000 for each school. Model ru-
raj schools are also included in the
program.
A gymnasium at Superior, to cost
around 100000 is proposed, together
with an addition to the one already in
use at Whitewater which needs 81
addition to cost about 100000, the
secretary said.
One dormitory has been requested
for the biennium to be built at a cost
of $250,000. 1t has not been decided
at what school this building would
be placed.
Owing to inspection by the state
engineer and to the need for keeping
buildings in proper repair the normal
board has requested $4,000 for
maintenance.
Ask Higher Salaries
Salary schedules are materially in
creased by the proposed budget. The
raise amounts to $225,O00 for the $50
teachers in the nine normal schools al
this time. In April 1920, the board
adopted salary schedule for teachers
and librarians. The estimates for the
coming biennium are based on this
schedule which provides for the in
crease mentioned. Increased salaries
of Librarians, janitors and engineers
are also proposed.

A building program of S1,S2O,00t

the Normal school regents in its bi-
ennnal budget estimates to the state
board of public affairs the state board

secretary.
The appropriation of the 1919 leg

ance of the nine normal schools was
$1,427,959.
Three items of expense are consid-
cred in the proposed budget, namely,
capital, maintenance and organiza-
ton. They are the basis from which
plans have been developed. Building

ance fund. New heating plants are
urged for Milwaukee and River Falls

Now is the time for the Normal
schools of Wisconsin to make an adj
iustment in the manner of conducting
their athletic contests. The school
athletics are held for the purpose OF
not only developing the physical pow
er of the students, but also, and more
especially, the development of their
character. Childish squabbles over a
football game Oh a technical point IN
conducting the contests gives the en-
tire student body of the schools IN
volved wrong impression by placing
the value of certain victory above
that of the training of mind and
body to true craftsmanship, in which
the display of fair and honest endeav-
or is of more importance than victory
or defeat. This was the aim In barr
ing professional players and profess
sional tactics in conducting contests.
To further the aim there should be a
board of appeal, vested with author
ity which will be able to compel the
school authorities to a strict observ-
ance of the rules of eligibility, etc.,
and to also be able to settle all such
disputes as that which arose at Men
omonie last Friday. The declaring
of the outcome of that game was out
of the hands of the officials when the
time-keepers called the game finished.
If there was an error in their time
keeping that point should be taken
up by board such as heretofore
mentioned This board would also
have the final decision regarding
eligibility rulings, and each school of
the conference should be forced to
either play its entire schedule or de-
clare a forfeit. Keen rivalry which
inspires players to their greatest Ell
forts is great for the game and for
the schools, but the present spectacle
of inter-school hatred and personal
antagonism over technical points is
situation to be Immediately corrected
and henceforth avoided.

900 people. So we must now say
to the American people, Come to
our rescue"
Mr.. Marshall pictured condi-
tions in eastern Europe as entirely
beyond description. The accounts
of misery and not exaggerated, as
those who have witnessed them
can testify, he said.
Nobody, not even Dante, who
told the horrors of hell, can pic
ture what is going on in eastern
Europe. 1t is a story of starva-
ton from those regions which
grows with every telling because
we are now for. the first time able
to penetrate those regions, and
know what is going on there"
Mr.. Marshall praised Herbert
Hoover as a noble philanthropist,
and mention of the latter's name
called for an outburst of applause.
Then he read cablegram telling
of 100000 Jews in Poland and
Galicia, of whom 60 per cent. re-
quire relief. More than a million
Of these require shoes and cloth
ing. Present relief reaches only
one-half those who need it. Ty-
phus has reached 95 per cent. of
the population of eastern Galicia.
Children have died by hundreds Of
thousands. Prompt aid is impera-
tive.
Pictures Sufferings of Jews
II am not here" the speaker
said, "to say that others have not
suffered, but | do say the Jews
have suffered the most terribly be-
cause they were confined to the
Russian pale by the edict of the
former Cars, and were in the
very battle-ground Of the contend
ing armies. They suffered from
cruelties from both sides, and after
the war from pogroms. Of all
the vicissitudes undergone by the
Jews in the past twenty centuries,
those of the past five years have
been the worst"
Mr.. Marshall declared it "a
miracle of God that some Jews
have been permitted to reach these
shores and to grow under the pro-
lection of the Star and Stripes"
He said: "We owe an obligation
not only to brotherhood but to the
Almighty for what He has done
for us here in America"
Continuing, Mr.. Marshall said
the Jews of the United States have
raised $4O,OO0,0OO for relief work,
but still that sum, was not nearly
sufficient. The government had
given every aid. Relief work had
been so systematized that every
penny given went to aid the suf-
ferers.
"The war has accomplished one
thing" he concluded, "the politi-
cal emancipation of these stricken
countries; but what boots it if
these people have attained emanci-
patton if they died the moment
they attain it,"
David Snellenburg who was in
troduced by Nathan Miller as "the
brains of the committee" called
