RICE GROWERS OF CALIFORNIA
 SEEK MARKET

San Francisco. California rlce growers who paise the second largest crop Of rice ir the United States have surplus of approximately 2,0OO,OVo bags of paddy rice on their hands
 With the export market stagnant and the Oriental crop now flooding the American market the rice growers stand to lose a huge sum on their 1920 crop, already cut nearly in half by early rains and high waters
 The normal California rice crop is 4,00O, 900 bags. Estimates vary as to the loss occasioned by early torrentlal the Rice Growers Association of Cali fornia is authority for the estimate of 100000 bags.
 The, Rice Growers Association of the Sacramento Valley has set price of $5.25 per hundred pounds which they claim is the lowest that they can sell their crop and even hope to come out even.
 The present mill quotations range around SAYS to $4.S0 a hundred, with but few sales reported at those prices. The growers are holding their crop in hopes that some way may be found to sell it at figures which will pay the cost of production. "Only a small fraction of the 2,00o,- 900 or more bags of paddy rice raised in California this year have been sold" Secretary Mason said today. ''The rice growers face a serious sit
 
 lures early and is usually sold in October and November. Today it is still in the growers hands and the Oriental crop is coming in rapidly. There is only a slight tariff on the Oriental rice, not near enough to off set the difference in cost of labor let alone other factors of production.
 With this vast rice crop stored in the Pacific coats warehouses; and with idle shipping board ships in San Francisco harbor, the growers are urging that supplies of this rice be purchased with the Chinese famine relief fund and shipped to the famine districts. If this was done, it is pointed out, }the money raised in America for the relief of China's starving millions would be spent in this country and would work a double good; relieving the famine sufferers and also finding a market for the Cal ifornia rice crop.

Nix On Education
 And Politics

Washington.-Poli and educa- ton don't mix, P. P. Claxton, Federal Commissioner, contends. Their as sociation in State school systems is bad for both, he finds, and the soon CT they are permanently divorced 'tthe better it will be for education and all that is dependent on it.''
 Our political parties do NOT diff fer in regard to educational principles or practices anl more than they do in regard to the Ten Commandments and the moral code," the -commis- sioner said in a statement arguing the point. Wise and effective admin istratiOn of a system of public school ing that has just growed up'' like Topsy, but now involves an average expenditure of $25,0OO,000 @ year by each state, requires ability and de- Votion, he said and should be wholly separate from any indepen- dent or partisan politics.
 To reach this end, the commission outlined a uniform system which might well be adopted, he said, in all states. This would include a non-- partisan, non-professiona1 elected or appointed State Board of Education, made up of men and women of af- fairs" and representing fairly all sec tions of the state. The seven to nine members would serve seven or nine year terms with one term ex- bring each year. NO member to be eligible to reappointment in order to DI1IIS III new DlCOu- MenlDefS would be non-removable except for cause and the board would elect it's own chairman and it's members receive a ''hberaP' per diem instead of salary.
 Large salaries" Mr Claxton said
 would tempt members to try and earn their salaries by meddling with executive details properly belonging to employees of the board'' and, he added, would attract linen and wom- en of small ability to the jobs.
 The board should exercise general control over all state educational in stitutions of every kind except, pos sibly, universities or colleges, the commissioner holds. Its functions should be wholly legislative how ever, and it's members undertake ex- ecutive work only in specific cases as signed by the board. An elected or appointed commissioner should be the executive officer and secretary of the board, his selection and appointment by the non-partisan board itself be | ing desirable in MT. ClaXton's judg- | ment. A well selected and adequate staff for the commissioners office would also be required and the re- sponsible department of education | thus set up become the leader in all l educational matters.
 1 ''It is neither safe nor good that | the leader be weak or blind" MT.
 C1aXton said. Where there is NO
 vision, the people perish; where there l is weakness in place of strength. 1 there can be only stagnation and
 death where there should be progress
 and 1ife.'

ENGLISH AND
 FRENCH AT ODDS
 OVER PENALTIES

Paris.-Premier Lloyd George, and the French are at odds over the queS- ton of the immediate application of economic, penalties upon Germany. according to a London dispatch to the Echo de Paris today. The dis patch was from ''Pertinax." the poli- tical editor of the Echo de Paris.
 ttPertinax'' understands that the British premier opposes the applica- tion of economic penalties until it is shown that the military action is in sufficient to enforce the allied de- mands. The French, on the other hand, desire immediate application of the economic sanctions.
 Premier Lloyd George it is under stood desires a sos per cent. tax when economic penalties are imposed, to prevent the dumping of German goods on the British market. Such a heavy tax, it is believed by experts would drive German trade away from Britain, but probably would turn it towards America and neutral coun- tries.
 Announcement was made that Sir R. s. Horne, president of the British board of trade, would introduce a res olution in the House of Commons i'm posing a 50 per cent. tax upon Ger man imports.
