Statement of Percival p. Baxter,
Governor, on the Sd Nomination Of
Hon. Howard Davies for Chairman
Of the Public Utilities Commission

For the third time I have nomi-
mated Hon. Howard Davies of Var
mouth for chairman of the Public
Utilities Commission. l believe that
Mr. Davies is the right man for this
important position. The reasons ad-
vanced by the members of the Exc
cutive Council for their refusal to
confirm my two previous nomina :
tons of Mr.. Davies have not changed
my opinion of him, and l am con-
WINGED that he is qualified for the
position on account of his ability, his
fearleSSneSS and his independence. If
his nomination is confirmed he can be
depended upon to protect the inter-
ests of all the People of Maine.
Il have urged the Executive Coun-
cilors to make public their reasons
for not confirming Mr.. Davies, but as
they decline to do so it would not at
this time be proper for me to speak
for them. The fact that I have
thrice nominated Mr. Davies is con-
elusive evidence that | retain my
confidence in him.
This nomination in the first in
stance was made only after careful
elaboration. Four weeks and again
two weeks before I made up my mind
on this important matter and nomi-
mated Mr.. Davies, l consulted with
the Councillors and asked them to
suggest the names of men they con-
sidered qualified for the position in
question. ] wanted their advice and

Several Collisions
Along n. E. Coast
Due to Heavy Fog

Boston. July S-Heavy fog which
blanketed much of the New England
coast today made navigation haz-
ardous and was responsible for sew
cral marine accidents. In the har-
Dor here ships felt their way about
with fog horns, whistles and bells,
keeping up a continual din while
vessels farther out made frequent
calls on the government radio COM
pass stations to obtain their bearings.
The United Fruit steamer Mayari,
inward bound from. Banes, Cuba,
with sugar, was on a sand bar off
Highland Light for several hours
but f1oated uninjured with the ris-
ing tide Although hardly more
than half a mile away, the crew of
the Highland Light coast guard sta
ton could barely make out the form
of the ship in the fog.
Wireless messages from the light
house tender Azalea, said that she
had been disabled by collisica
with a schooner off Pollock Rip
lightship. She was not leaking but
was in need of immediate assistance.
The identity of the schooner and the
extent Of her damage were not indi-
Gated.
In the harbor the Natasket line
steamer Old Colony collided with the
auxiliary fishing yawl Active and
sent her to the bottom. The crew
were rescued by the steamer.
Passengers from Maine ports and
New York came into the farbor at
reduced speed and in some cases
were several hours late in docking
The fog lifted somewhat during the
afternoon and all of the regular
coastwise steamers got away in
time.

STATE POLICE
SALARIES Will
BE FULLY PAID

One of the state officials thor
oughly cognizant of the situation has
figured out that barring further emer-
gency the state police fund deficit
will, December 81, 1922, amount 10
approximately $4lOO The expenditure
Of this amount In excess of the ap-
preparation made by the last legisla-
ture for the support Of the police
was made necessary by the act of
Governor Boyle in ordering Super
Intendent Rufe Henrichs to put
force of men in the field for the pur-
pose of handling the strike situation
in Tonopah early in the summer.
After Judge Ayerill and Nye coun-
ty and Tonopah officials requested
the state police, the board of examin-
ers held a special meeting and al-
thorized a deficiency OF $25, 900 A
couple of months ago Controller
George Cole observed that the state
police appropriation was running
low and addressed a letter to the
board of examiners, informing the
members thereof that his office
would issue no deficiency warrants.
He received no answer to his com
munication. Subsequently Attorney
General Fowler, himself an eX-off-
clio member OF the board Of examin-
ers, wrote a lengthy opinion in which
he held that Coles position was un-
tenable. The controller was not IA
vored with a copy of this commun-
cation About month ago Cole
sent a second letter to the board,
giving notice that the claims filed
with him and approved by the board
somewhat exceeded the balance left
to the credit Of the police In the
legislative fund, and requesting ad
vice as to the claims to be paid in
full with the money available, This
letter otherwise appears to have
gone unanswered.
Monday 1t was announced that
had been perfected for
paying state police claims without
having the transaction pass through
the controllers office at the present
time. In the plan to be followed
the claims will be scrutlnized by the
board of examiners and, after ap-
proval by that body, will be paid at
the bank. which will, at the next
session of the legislature, present a
relief bill for reimbursement of the
amounts advanced on the approval
of the examiners.

SCHOOLS FOR
ALL IS PLAN IN
JERUSALEM
(Py Associated PrSa11

JERUSALEM, Nov. 3.--The Brit
sh government, which has a man
date over Palestine has undertaken
plan to place a school within the
reach of every child in Palestine
1t hopes to accomplish this within
few years.
The purpose is to establish 50 new
schools each year, these to be dis
tributed throughout Palestine as the
need Is greatest. Already hundreds
Of children are receiving for the
first time the benefits of an edu-
cation.
Before the war, Jerusalem, then a
city OF some $4,000 inhabitants, could
not boast of a single government
high school, Even now 70 persons
out Of every 100 do not know how
to read and write.
The path of educational develop
ment in Palestine contains one great
stumbling block, the lack of CO.
operation and unity among the diff,
ferent elements OF population. The
government schools today are at
tended only by Mohammedans.
There is great need for institu'
tions of higher education, At pres
ent there Is not a college in the
entire state OF 100000 inhabitants.
The American university of Beirut,
Syria, is the only place open to
PalestinianS seeking higher educa-
ton.
The authorities recognize this lack
of educational opportunity but find
themselves helpless to remedy 1t,
owing to the inability 10 obtain
funds.
There has been a great deal Of
talk in recent years about establish
ing a Hebrew university In Jerusa-
lem. Its plans have been drawn and
the cornerstone has been laid. but
the money to build II has not been
secured and 1t remains in the realm
of things yet to be.
