Force Men on Strike

Washington-Admiral Benson OF
the shipping board has announced
that any company that operates ships
owned by the government that agrees
to last years wage rates to marine
engineers and seamen, will have their
ships taken from them.
The workers are striking against
wage reductions that will total more
than As per cent because of the re-
establishment Of the 12-hour day and
the abolishment of overtime. The
shipping board and vessel owners are
unit in opposing the seafarers.
The workers made every attempt to
avoid strike. They offered to leave
the entire question to President
Harding and accept any decision he
would make. Admiral Benson re-
fused, on the ground that he did not
want to burden the president" The
workers asked if American citizens
would be given first preference in en-
pIoyment, and second preference to
workers who have declared their in
tention of becoming American citi-
zens. Admiral Benson refused to
give this pledge and professional
patriots ignore the first statement of
its kind made by an Aemrican naval
officer.
The men forwarded a communica-
ton to the president in which they
offered to abide by any decision he
would make. The president referred
the matter to members of his cabinet,
who discussed the matter with the
interested parties.

ANNIE WEBB BLANTON WANTS THE
SCHOOLS REMOVED FROM POLITICS.
AND BETTER SUPPORT IS NECESSARY

One-fourth Of occupation tax goes TO
school funds. In addition there is n
20-cent state levy besides the ID
cent levy for free textbooks under
the amendment passed In 1918. Miss
Blanton credited union labor for be-
ing largely responsible for the carry
ing of the textbook amendment.
Were il not for that amendment the
schools of Texas would receive about
81 less for each pupil now. said Miss
Blanton.
The total income for school pur-
poses, she estimated is $4,000 900,
which divided among l,272.000 pu-
pills, gives $l4.50 for each child of
school age.
The state is giving one-thiri Of
the revenue for school purposes, and
best educators estimated the amount
should be one-half" declared Miss
Blnnton. Texas is noted for having
city schools the equal of any in the
nation. But the reason Texas has
such a low school rating is that she
has the largest rural school problem
in the United States. We have nearly
400, 900 pupils taking advantage Of

that her statements about the pub

~ want this morning to make you
realize that the schools Of Texas are
vour own" said Miss Blanton. land
that YOU are responsible for them.
We have been told that we 1--we IN
the greatest democracy OF the world
and in the greatest state. We tell
the world how high we stand in many
lines. but we don't boast that we
stand 39th in education in the Unit
cd States. And this is true IN spite
of the fact that we separated from
Mexico partly because Of school con-
ditions.
an the early days leagues of land
were set aside for permanent school
fund for the state, in addition TO
land given to counties. The state
fund now totals $4,000, 900, the IN
terest on which is used for school pur-
poses.
Miss Blanton then launched INTO 2
of how the schools derived
their support. She said the interest
on public funds amounted to three 70
four million dollars year and that
another million came from poll taxes.
