we need chemists, we need engineers, we
need specialists in many lines.
80 with all conditions considered. the
urgent need for city college is one that
cannot be denied. There may be room for
difference of opinion as to just how it will
be achieved, as to just what form it will
take, but as for its need, there is no pos
sble debate
''As such a college would be for the pur-
pose of filling popular need. this fact
should be borne in mind in shaping the
curriculum. in defining the policy which
such an institution should pursue.
Should Have Practical Courses
There is no question that it should be n
college where the courses should be practi-
cal: 1t should be able to prepare the phy
slcian, the electrical engineer, the chem
list. the physicist and other higher forms Of
vocational and scientific pursuit There
should be provision for education in the
liberal arts. Such course should be a
four-year one. that would better equip the
ambitious young men and women for the
battle of life. If they wished to pursue
education further, they then would have
the qualifications that many minus this
training do not or will not have to enable
them to meet the requirements of the uni
versty with its greatly raised quaifca-
tions.
There, of course, could and no doubt
would be brought to bear against such II
project at the present time the argument
that there is no money available to make
1t an accomplished fact But PENNSYLVANIA
is next to the richest State In the country
with untold resources, and money for q vital
project can always he raised. Past history
has shown that to be u fact and there Is
no question that in one Of a number of ways
this phase of the problem could be solved
Resides, hard headed business men can
not help but recognize a genuine business
proposition when they see it. Higher edu.
cation has not only enabled the individual
to better himself financially. as well as in
other ways, but it in time pays for itself
in increased service and income to the COM
munity and to the State from these self
same individuals. Surveys of this aspect
Of the case have been made from time 10
time that would confirm this statement.
Board Has Power to Tax
Then having established these principles,
we may recall that the Board of Education
has power now to tax for its educational
needs. Surely no taxpayer will object to
making an Investment that win directly or
indirectly pay him many fold in the years
to come.
such an institution could be erected righ.
on the site of the present Central High
School. Possibly the building could be
utilized in some way, but, in any event, the
nucleus is there.
"A city college, then Is not n dream, n
thing of the hazy, far distant future. but

A HOPE OF TRANSIT CONCORD

NNHE teasing hopes of agreement which
- color the mystery surrounding the
Anglo-Irsh negotiations appear tenable in
connection with the efforts of the city and
The =. r. T. to extract something definite
and progressive from the transit problem.
Yesterdays conference, of which the de-
tails were undisclosed, leads to a sequel in
the Mayors Office this afternoon. The ur-
banity of the contesting parties suggests
that a basis of concord. which in particular
will render possible the opening OF the
Frankford elevated. is being at last ap
preached.
Philadelphians are heartily weary of the
intricacies of the case and sicker still of the
deadlock which has almost reached the pro-
portions Of absurdity. They devoutly desire
the inauguration of tho new high speed line,
and even fears that the lease may in some
way fall short of perfection fail TO mitigate
the intensity of their longing.

AN INTERNATIONAL HIGHWAY

A LTHOCGH the Versailles Treaty pro-
"A vided that the Danube should be an
international waterway open to the traffic of
all nations for its full length from Tim in
wurtemberg to the Black Sea, it was not
until this week that arrangements were COM
pleted for carrying out the provision.
The river passes through a part OF Ger
many, traverses the old Austro Hungarian
Empire and is touched by Serbia, Rumania
and Bulgaria. Its navigation has been
under the direction of an international com
mission, but there were possibilities of re-
striction Of traffic which made it necessary
to arrange for its common use by all the
nations watered by It.
There has been much disagreement in the
past over the control and development OF
the river. The new arrangement ought To
remove friction and make for international
good understanding.

THE LONG TRAILS END

uOW many people in this country were
i i aware before they read yesterdays cable
from London that 10000 full blooded
Indians lie with the American dead in
France?
Honor of n conspicuous sort had been
done 70 almost every class and group and
race that contributed in any way to the
allied victory before the world was re-
minded of the singular part played in the
war by those Americans who may properly
be called 100 per cent. The United States
and all its people owe debt to Dr. Joseph
X. Dixon. of this city. and to the founder
OF the Wanamaker Historical Expeditions
for the part they played in bringing recog-
milton formally TO the American Indian.
Haig. Foch and Pershing found these
tribesmen deserving of Il place with the
noblest soldiers of all time. They were cool
dispassionate fighters. invariably brave and
marvellous as marksmen. Most of them
were volunteers.
The Indian in France may yet live in n
great American epic He never knew com.
plete freedom. yet he went out to fight for it
until he died.

They can talk about old times and about
John Burroughs and what a fine chap he
was, and they can experiment with their
cookery and chop wood and sleep on the

ren probably would have loved to do just
such things. But his countrymen wouldn't
