Washington ID. c. - Arrange
ments have been made, it was said
officially today in armament con-
ference circles for direct negotia-
tions between the Japanese and
Chinese delegations over Shantung.
The negotiations are expected to
start Immediately and in order to
give the Japanese and Chinese
delegates a free day for their
discussions, the conference COM
mittee on Pacific and Far Eastern
Questions adjourned today until
Friday.
The Far. Eastern committee did
not. conclude discussion today of
China's request for withdrawal of
foreign troops from China and the
matter went over. The committee
took up another Chinese request
for restrictions on the use of
foreign telegraph and radio system.
The prospects were considered in
Americaon quarters as good, that
the Japanese and Chinese repre-
sentatives would be able to settle
the Shantung dispute outside of
the conference.

Washington, D. C.-Details of the
American plan for limitation of. naval
armament were discussed today at a
brief meeting of the subcommittee of
naval experts of Great Britain, the
United States and Japanese. The SEES
sion was adjourned shortly after 11:00
O'Clock and it then was said there
would be no other meeting of the
subcommittee today and that it had
not been determined whether discus
sions would be resumed tomorrow.
There also was no indication that the
full committee of naval experts, in
Guiding the officers of the French and
Italian navies had been called.
Halt at Naval Ratio.
It is generally expected that when
the experts of the three powers reach
a point where they cannot proceed
further until the conference has de-
cided the fundamental question of fleet
ratio as between the United States and
Japan. that the full naval expert COM
mittee will be assembled and will
then make its report to the naval COM
mittee of the conference.
In American circles there had ap-
peared to be feeling that today
might bring the discussion of the
naval ratio question to head so far
as the experts were concerned. There
was no indication, that such stage
should be reached, however, when the
subcommittee adjourned.
British Are Optimistic.
Optimism was apparent among mem
bers of the British delegation, a
spokesman for which, prior to the adj
iournment of the subcommittee Of ex-

A Menace to Rural Education.

Insecurity of tenure is held by
the American Federation of
Teachers Executive Council to
be one of the prime causes for
inefciency in educational works
The Federation maintains that
this is especially noticeable in
the rual districts where teachers
are subjected to the whims of
the local boards of education.
An effort is being made to en-
list the support. of the people of
the rual districts in a movement
to have laws enacted in each
State that will obviate arbitrary
dismissal of competent teachers
by more or less arbitrary boards
or education. In other words
the effort is being made to put
teachers strictly on their merits
and to safeguard their tenure of
office as long as they prove
efficient, provided their conduct
is above reproach.
Statistics show that in the past
there has been surprising num-
Der of dismissals and changes.

servility which have no place in
the democracy of education. A
teacher to be efficient, should be
accorded the same latitude enjoy
ed by other citizens of rural COM
munities of the same educational
attainments. Too often is the
teacher in the country restricted
by an autocratic and awe-inspir-
ing board that assumes it is its
prerogative to exercise censor
ship even in matters not directly
affecting the conduct of the
school.
To safeguard the tenure OF
competent teachers it is proposed
that concentrated effort be
made to enact laws regulating
the removal of teachers. The pro-
posed laws should provide for
impartial hearings and fol, ap-
peals to the civil courts. if nee
essary. The constant changing
of teachers for trivial causes has
proven a menace to the educs-
tional systems of the rural COM
munities.
