AT FOOT OF LIST
This State Lowest in School System
Table. Montana Leads All.


Montana has the best all round pub
lie school system in the United States,
according to the results of compara-
tive study Of state school systems
made public today by the Russell Sage
foundation. The report assigns sec
! ond place to the schools of California.
third place to those Of Arizona, fourth
to New Jersey and fifth to the state
of Washington
These findings arc continged in a
report by the department of cduca-
tion Of the foundation. The volume is
entitled AN Index Number for State
School system" and the author is DR..
lLeonard p. Ayres, director OF the
foundations department Of education
Other findings of the report are that
the school system of the United
states us a whole has doubled in cf-
iiciency during the last 30 years, hay
ing an index number or rating Of % in
1870 and one OF % at the present
time Since these index numbers arc
figured on the basis Of 100, the school
system Of tic country has now an cf-
fcctivcncss and efficiency Of only -
per cent, according TO tho report.
The figures for the individual states
as given by the foundation show that
during the past 80 years the West has
Eccn coming up cducationally, whiic
the East has been going down. Dur-
ing iis time The greatest increase
among all the states has been made
by Utah Willie the state TO which l.
attributed the greatest falling of IN
relative standing is Maryland. in tle
'tast Tie only state chat has gained
instead Of losing is N2w Jersey. In
the West the state that has the best
and most consistently high record is
California;
Among the interesting results of the
study is the conclusion that the school
systems of the United States tcrr-
torial possessions, such as Hawaii The
Canal Zone and puerto Rico, hava
higher ratings than those Of many of
the Is states. That of Hawaii is re-
ported better than those Of the ma
jority OF the American states
Tho foundation states that all the
! results are computed from data fur
nishcd by the states themselves to the

ords have been compiled and combined

The extent to which the woman vote
will count in the Presidential election,
provided the Constitutional Suffrage
Amendment is ratified in time, may be
seen in the fact that there are APP
proximately 2S,OOO,OOO women of vot-
ing age in the United States.
Of the 28,000,000 women of voting
age, approximately 100000 al
ready are eligible to vote for Presi-
dent in 1920. But only 100000 will
be able to vote for Congressional can
didates if the amendment is not rati-
fed
Oregon and Indiana were added to
the list of states favoring Federal
woman suffrage when the Legislature
in special session a few days since
completed ratification of the amend
ment, making the twenty-siX of the
necessary thirty-six state indorse-
ments to make. the amendment a part
of the Constitution. Arizona, New
Jersey and New Mexico will act on the
proposal soon.

WOOD HASv Varied
CIVIL EXPERIENCE
ADMINISTRATIVE QUALITIES ARE
TESTED AND PROVED IN HAN.
DLlNG GREAT BUSINESS
PROBLEMS.
BY EDWARD 3. CLARK.

From time to time people ask,
"What has been the administrative
and business experience oe Leonard
Wood2 What has been his experience
with men outside of the army? What
does he know about conditions in the
different parts of the United States
and in our overseas possessions? Has
he any thorough knowledge Of foreign
affairs and of our foreign relations"
The administrative qualities of
leonard Wood have been tested and
proved. No American living has been
tried more thoroughly than he in COM
pick fields of constructive civil work,
administrative work OF the highest
order which carried with it the neces-
acumen.
The republic of Cuba, built upon
firm democratic foundations, is mon
ument to the administrative ability of
Leonard Wood. In the Philippines is
to be found another monument to his
craftsmanship.
Leonard Wood graduated in medi-
cine from Harvard University in 1884
and served for more than q year in
one Of the great hospitals, later to
take charge Of the charity depart
ments In a section Of the city Of Bos-
ton where the poor lived.
Not long after the completion of
Woods work In Boston he became an
assistant surgeon In the army, coming
into contact with the western plains
man, the miner, the people generally,
and giving much of his time to the
work of assisting the Indians and to
a study Of the problems Of irrigation
and reclamation.
Then for Leonard Wood there came
four years In California. He covered
the state many times in pursuance Of
his duties and extended his field as
occasion required into the states Of
the Northwest. Then for two years he
was in service In the South, having
headquarters in Georgia.
From the South Leonard Wood went
TO the city of Washington, where his
work brought him into daily contact
the same intimate relations with Will
liam Mckinley and the men of his
time.
Then came the Spanish war and the
active campaign In Cuba as the col
onel Of the regiment Of rough riders
Of which Theodore Roosevelt was the
lieutenant colonel.
At the close Of the Spanish war
Leonard Woods supreme administra-
tive duties began. He was made the
governor of the city Of Santiago and
q few weeks later Of the entire east
ern half of Cuba.
Under Wood prOfiteering was abol-
ished, industry was built up, agricul-
ture rehabilitated, hospitals organ
lied, equipped and maintained, tens
of thousands of people clothed and
fedAIaid an thiss d6hebif1 a. therohgh
businessllke MANNER. 1t was done un1
der fluctuations which arose from
the fact that the people were i'm
poverished to the point of starva-
ton and had been dying by thousands
for the lack Of the things which Wood
quickly provided.
Then there came the rehabilitation
Of the municipalities, the establish
nent Of schools, the opening Of roads,
the organizing Of government in the
provinces, the readjustment of taxa
ton and Of the courts, and the, work
~ providing for the thousands OF chill

Senator Warren G. Harding in re-
cent speech before a gathering of the
Ohio Society of New York City dashed
the "reds" from beginning to end and
struck the keynote of Americanism
and pierced the heart of idealistic adj
ministration of the government when
he said, at is fine to idealize, but it
is very practical to make sure our
own house is in perfect order before
we attempt the miracle of Old World
sterilization"
The Owosso times. (Owosso, Mich.) 1897-1926, 1920-01-23

Under the terms of bill introduce
ed in the House by Congressman AL
bert Johnson of Washington, Chair
man of the immigration Committee,
every government employee would be
charged with the duty of reporting to
the Department of Justice any infor-
nation concerning alien activities.
Mr.. Johnson believes his measure
would have the double purpose of rid
ding the Federal bureaus of dangerous
persons and providing a wider net for
the trapping of conspirators through
the country.
Congressman Harreld, Of Oklaho-
ma has started campaign against
the depletion of crime on the moving
picture screen. He has introduced a
bill forbidding the transportation in
interstate commerce of films "pur-
porting to show or to simulate the
acts and conduct of former convicts,
desperadoes, or outlaws, in the the
commission or attempted commission
Of crime" Violation of the act would
be punished by fine of not more
than $4,000 or Imprisonment for
not more than five years, or both.
The conference committee on the
railroad bills of the two Houses is
making substantial progress. Most of
the paragraphs upon which there was
but slight difference of opinion have
been considered and adjusted, and only
those sections involving widely diver
gent policies, such as the labor pro-
visions, remain for discussion. Chair
man Cummins of the Senate confer
ees says he will "soon see daylight
ahead"
The Owosso times. (Owosso, Mich.) 1897-1926, 1920-01-23

Remaining that the war has, given
place TO a worldwide commercial
struggle, Gen. Wood urged the build
ing up of a merchant marine. He
also advocated small, but highly eff
ficient army, a first class and ever eff
ficient navy and some kind of train
ing system backed by public opinion.
