a creditable dramatic season in a

TO be satisfaction enough in itself.
Yet there is present evidence that
to the hearts OF the promoters of
such artistic benevolence even the
approval OF the uptown public is
balm worth a transfer to the up

Oxford Wins From Bates.

Oxford University won its debate
with the team from Bates College,
Maine. on Thursday, an outcome of
the contest which will in no way de-
press the public, which has followed
with interest and sympathy the for
eign excursion of the young men
from Lewiston. The decision was
left to the auditors, after the British
custom in such trials of skill. The
Americans upheld the American con-
tention on question of international
import concerning which the English
are not in agreement with us. That
three young men. able though they
may be, could not under the circum-
stances make the audience think with
them is not astonishing.
Defeat of the Bates College men
in this meeting carries no discredit
to them or to the institution which
sent them forth. The facts that they
made an excellent impression at Ok
ford, that their forensic ability was
readily acknowledged by their hosts,
men highly trained in formal dispu-
tation, sufficiently demonstrate their
fitness for the task their successes
in their own land gave them the op-
portunity to tackle.

Saving Wild Ducks.

The Bureau of Biological Survey
made count in 1919 of the wild
ducks in the Bear River marshes in
Utah, which include a portion OF the
northern end of Great Salt Lake.
The census indicates that from $4,000
to 10000 of the fowl were in these
marshes at the close OF the breeding
season. Before the nesting ptstsu

TERRITORIAL CHIEFS
HONORED AT DINNER
New Alaskan and HawaiiGn
Governors Guests.

Two newspaper men. both named as
territorial Governors recently by Presi-
dent Harding. were honored at a dinner
in the waldorf-Astoria last night. They
were Scott c. Bone, former editor of
the Seattle Post-TnteIli0enccr, now Cow
ernor of Alaska, and Wallace c. Far
rington. publisher of the Honolulu Star
Bulletin, who is awaiting confirmation
of his appointment by the Senate before
undertaking his duties as Governor OF
the Territory of Hawaii.
While tho dinner was arranged par
ticularly to honor Mr.. Bone by former
Seattle and Alaska residents. they joined
in felicitating Mr.. Harrington. who was
u guest.
A letter from President Harding was
read by Toastmaster John H. Perry,
publisher of the Post-Tnteilgonccr. The
President said that the appointment of
Mr.. Bone marks a new era In the devel-
opment OF Alaska without the attendant

What's Your Game, Mr.. Fordney ?

II the ambition Of his life is to in
crease the cost of building and make
the housing shortage worse Chair
man FoRDNEY of the Ways and Means
Committee is on the right road to
achieve it with his proposed heavy
duty on lumber.
There is not timber enough in this
country to come anywhere near sup
plying its lumber needs. At the rate
the trees are being swept away there
are not forests enough in this coun-
try to assure that any wood at all
will be left in them after very
few years. Furthermore, the present
domestic timber supply is so far dis
tant from the great consuming mar
kets in the East that the cost Of
transporting it is terrific load. Sen
ator CALDER's recent report on the
subject stated that for every dollar
paid out for lumber in New York city
nearly 80 cents went into the cost
of shipping, trucking and handling it..
Not merely the builders and the
public need more lumber; the dealers
raise the same cry. the mills echo it.
Fair and square timber men them
selves oppose restrictions on lumber
importation. They declare the nation
simply cannot get along without more
lumber than this country can pos
sibly produce.
But Chairman FoRDNEY neverthe-
less ignores the really desperate lum-
ber needs of the nation and defies the
demands of the public. He wants to
soak them with a lumber tariff that
will surpass anything of the kind that
ever was dreamed of before, even
when the United States had so much
lumber that nobody knew what to do
with It all.
Just what is Chairman FoRDSEY
driving at?

On the Home Grounds.

The decision of the Chicago Opera
Company directors that in the future
that organization is going to be more
active in the middle and far West
Is tardy recognition of an artis-
tic principle which was supposed
to. be the cornerstone Of their en-
terprise. The efforts of public spir
tied citizens to form an art insti-
tuition in the middle West were rec
ognized as an influence in musical
progress that could not fail to lead
TO excellent results. But 1t soon
became evident that Chicago was
not by any means the chief goal
OF its ambition. Though opera
might be given there for longer
period than in any other city, though
Chicago might supply the necessary
funds and Chicago might have the
honor of giving to the organization
its name, important artistic infiu-
ences in the company. il not the
directors. had fixed their eyes on
other cities.

were accidentally attached to an or

annual visits to New York and ac-
companying deficits which have posed
serious problems for the treasurer.
But a recent tour of the West re
suited in the most fattering finan-

The Antioch Plan.

Antioch College in Yellow Springs
Ohio. was opened in 1853 with HoR
ACE MANN as its first president. The
college records that during MAINS
presidency 'it was western rendez
vous of EMERSON, HAWTHORNE, HALE
and other distinguished New Eng
landers." All its existence Anti
och has followed educational plans
inspired by MANN and, it is fair ia
assume, approved by his scholarly
guests from the East Now it an
nounces change in its policy plainly
responsive to the demands of the
industrial era which had little more
than begun when Antioch opened its
doors.
At Antioch under the new plan
vocational courses will take major
rank. The classics will not be aban.
doned: courses which in old plans
are designed to make specialists in
arts and sciences will be curtailed,
not laid aside. Nor will Antioch
offer highly Specialized courses even
in any occupation. 1t will aim,
rather, to develop and coordinate
general knowledge and practical ca
pacity in all phases of administra-
tion, including organization, person
mel management, accounting and cost,
salesmanship, advertising" and other
callings.
Within thirty miles of the college
there are 500 manufactures the own
ers Of many of which have offered
facilities for students, in accordance
with the Antioch plan, to study at
their establishments, doing work In
shop or mill or Office to supplement
the theoretical training given in the
school. Arrangements have been
made with a number of individuals
and corporations to establish plants
of going concerns on the college
grounds for greater convenience in
carrying on the plan Of alternating
study.
Under the new plan full course
fills the semesters of six years, and
while such studies as finance, physi-
cal chemistry, mathematics, indus
trial research, publicity, salesman
ship and specific vocational studies
will occupy the greater part of stu
dents time such cultural courses as
English. biology and philosophy are
included. What polytechnic schools

tioch will undertake to do for the
manager in industry and commerce.

BILL" Claw" and "Act." "
A Plea for Discrimination Among
the Three Words.

To THE New YORK HERALD: Will our
financial writer's and financial speech
makers ever learn the distinction among
these three terms as applying to a
legislative measure? have before me
a copy OF a speech made by the chair
man OF a board of directors of lead
ing financial institution in which he
still speaks OF the Edge bill" although
it is now more than year and a half
since the present Edge act was bill. :
Other writers constantly refer to the
same measure as the Edge law" as IL

term for any specific measure while it is
in process OF enactment is bill" and not

term for all legislation of a general type.

reimbursement for the full amount OF
the loss. not. of course, to exceed the
amount of Insurance carried. The great
est difficulty which companies have to
contend with has been the desire OF
either the pollcyholder or the broker to
underinsure. by selecting an amount
which possibly was considered sufficient
to cover the average loss that might
be sustained. In such cases the amount
of insurance has not borne any fixed
relation to the value of the property
exposed to loss.
The real object, therefore. is to en-
able the company to obtain a premium
in proper proportion to the risk as
sumed by requiring that the amount
OF insurance carried be commensurate
with the value OF the property exposed.

to the application of the so per cent.

CLAUSE would not apply in the case Of

asked the Dutchman In charge OF the
store how his patrons liked American
goods. "Oh," he said. they like your
country's products"
Then asked II he expected to con-
tinue the sale of American goods after
trade routes were normal again and he
could get his old lines from Europe. Hc
replied: Il doubt II l shall continue
American connections. During the war
that was all we could get. But, for one
thing, American packers will not put
canned vegetables, for example, into
cans that suit our trade. You Ameri-
cans use bigger can than we do. and
when we ask for beets and peas in our
old liter size cans you tell US that we can
only get cans OF the size used IN Amer
lea. Our customers do not like such big
cans. So when we can get the pre-war
