Three Hurt When Timber Breaks

John T. Gushing is at his
home here in a critical condition
from injuries received in an ac.
cident to workmen taking down
the Woodman building Wednes-
day afternoon.
s. L. Mossbarger and W. W.
Ausmus were also injured in the
same accident.
The three men were standing
on a 80 foot girder that spanned
the building, being supported by
trusrods from the rafters. They
removed the rods and trusted to
the timber to support them. 1t
snapped in two and they were
percipitated to the floor fourteen
feet below with the timbers on
them.
Mf. cushing sustained a
broken nose, and it is feared a
fracture of the skull, and num-
erous cuts and bruises the full
extent of which is not yet de-
termined. His condition is con-
sidered serious.
Mr.. Mossbarger is badly bruis-
ed and jammed up, the greatest
injury seeming to be to one hip.
but unless he is internally in
jured his condition is not con-
sidered serious.
Mr.. Ausmus escaped with only |
slight bruises.

Washington. = Denouncing as a
crime, shame and disgrace" condi-
sions that permitted more than 80 per
sent of the young men of draft age to
be classified as illiterate, Gen. John ].
PershinE. in a talk to the soldier pa
tients at Walter Reed Army Hospital,
Washington, made an appeal for such
action as would impress upon commun-
tiles the obligations the latter owed to
the youth of the United States In edu-
cation His startling disclosures also
constitute one of the strongest possi-
Bile arguments for compulsory educa-
ton, at least up to a certain age. This
appeal by Gen. Pershlng. and the illit-
sracy to which he called attention, 1t is
pointed out, emphasizes the import
ance Of a federal department of edu-
cation, one which would give moral
and financial support to the states in
their campaigns against ignorance.
The Washington Post, in an editor
iaA discussing the report of the House
Committee on Education, through
Chairman Fess, recommending the pas
sage of the Department of Education
measure, drives home some of the facts
with respect to illiteracy contained in
the report. The editorial says In part ::
TT (the reporD places the United
States as ninth In rank among the CIV
ilized nations in the matter of educa-
ton, which will come as a surprise to
a majority of the people, who held the
idea that this country was a leader in
hteracy. 1t also quotes former Secre-
tary of the Interior Franklin K. Lane
to the effect that illiteracy alone is re-
sponsible for an economic loss of
25.OOo, 900 year In this country.
1T fs carefully explained that the
pending bill does not attempt to set up
standards or to exercise any author
ity over the conduct of the schools. 1t
seeks through government co-opera-
ton and aid to encourage education
throughout the country and leaves to
the stntes all details with respect to
courses of study, plans and methods.
Nor does 1t appropriate any money,
but fixes limit of S1OO, 100000 year
which Congress may appropriate, or
any part of 1t, and the states can only
secure portions of an appropriation
by complying with the provisions of
the act after the method provided in
the federal good roads act.
For years there has been an insist
snt demand for the establishment of q
department of education in the govern
ment, with a view to oco-ordinating the
federal agencies already existing for
the furtherance Of education and to ex-
tend the scope Of the work"
