With Technical Devices.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, December 26.-Grades
handed out to high school and col
Iege students on their final examina-
tions frequently depend more on the
temper, digestion and immediate COM
fort of the grader than on the con-
tents of their examination papers, Ben
u. Wood, assistant to Dean Hawkes.
of Columbia University, declared in a
report on examination research work
conducted at the university.
He cited the case of one examina-
ton paper, graded as a test by ia
teachers. 1t received marks all the
way from 90 to 80 per cent. Another
paper. graded by 142 teachers. showed
difference Of opinion ranging from
81 to SO per cent.
The old type of examination, he de-
clared, has been found archaic and
unfair and must be thrown overheard.
In it's place. he urged substitution of
a method which takes account of the
principles of mental measurement and
which makes use OF modern technical

COMPULSORY VOTING
SOUGHT IN MARYLAND
Election Apathy Leads to Prepar

Grafton of Labor.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
BALTIMORE. December "a bill
making voting compulsory in Mary
land. now being drawn by the legis-
lative committee of the Baltimore
Federation of Labor, to be offered at
the coming session of the legislature
nexf month, was decided upon at a
recent meeting of the federation.
when only As per cent Of the reg
istered voters of the state go to the
polls in an important election" said
Henry F. Broening, president of the
federation, lit is time for some ac-
tion to be taken.
"Voting is more than privilege: it
is duty. Although business and
professional men have shown an
apathy toward voting, I believe that
the majority of those who stay away
are members of the labor unions. If
they won't go to the polls and use
their votes in behalf of measures ben
eficial to them, they should be forced
to do so"

thorize the President to negotiate
for arbitration Of the tolls question
and to appropriate S2.0OO,0OO as a
subsidy for American vessels using
the canal.
Debate on the measure disclosed
a split in party ranks. opponents de-
claring the bill was inopportune,
while Senator Borah. Republican,
Idaho. declared he had talked with
President Harding and Secretary
Hughes and they did not share such
views.
Twelve Democrats voted for the
/ bill on the roll call while II Repub-
/ licans voted in opposition. so that
the Democratic support was regard
ed as the determining factor.

/ to the bill were: Ashurst. Arizona;

sissippi; Kendrick. Wyoming; Rams
dell. Louisiana: Reed. Missouri; Rob-
inson, Arkansas; Shields. Tennessee; ;

Two other Republicans, dupont
J Delaware, and Mclean. Connecticut

Senator Lodge. OF Massachusetts,
Republican leader, was among thos'
who raised the question Of the ar.
mament conference. He admitted
b that the United States had the lsga
right to pass the bill, but said there
were potent reasons" against ac
ton at this time. in view Of IN
coming conference. Senator McCor

similar sentiments, saying tho Sen

that constitution through. The boys
