Berlin. Jan. =.
Even in The event 15,000,000 Eu-
rpcans are anxious to emigrate TO
'tc United States, only an inconsid-
yrable proportion of this number
could be transported there for sew
eral years to come, Is the view Of
men who are In a position to know
the emigration and shipping situa-
zion in northern and central Europe.
1t was said that there were $4,000
;eerage passengers in Rotterdam
awaiting transportation to America,
and that probably there were third
Of that number in Antwerp awaiting
Il chance TO leave there for the United
states. This is the only emigrant
ongestion reported here.
The highest estimate placed on pos
iJle emigration from central Europe
ia the United States was that by an
official Of the American State Depart
iIent here, who said that the emigra-
lion problem had reached stage
where nearly 100000 of the "most
undesirable peoples of Europe" might
le dumped into America.
Meanwhile, the Holland-America
md the Red Star lines are booking
steerage passengers from their Euro
pean ports Of call to the United States
for vessels leaving these European
ports late in February. Tl@ eight
north European ports from which
cmigrants 20 to America are Rotter-
dam, Antwerp. Copenhagen. Stock
holm, Christiania, Hamburg, Bremen
and Danzig.
"All told, not two dozen steam.
ships touching at these ports are
available for steerage passengers,
and these vessels are able to trans
port not more than $4,000 such
steeragc passengers in a year Mr..
Peters. the leading American steam
ship agent In Berlin. told THE New
YoRK HERALD correspondent "All
the lines from Europe to America
probably would not be able to trans
port more than a million and a half
of these passengers year."
The congestion in Rotterdam and
Antwerp is due almost exclusively to
the exodus OF Polish Jews reaching
Holland through Germany. he said.

US. Workers Cooperative
Store Fails in Capital

WASHINGTON, Jan. 2. The
cooperative store estab-
lished more than a year ago by
$500 employees of the Treasury
Department to decrease living
costs will not open for business
tomorrow. A committee will
arrange liquidation. Failure to
receive full cooperation of men,
bers and to compete with local
chain stores is given as the rea-
son for the failure of the enter
prise.
About 1,700 persons who in
vested $5 each to found the store
withdrew before the liquidation
process began, but the remaining
4,500 members will probably
lose their initial investment.

y RE-ORGANIZING THE
RURAL SCHOOLS

A very interesting article appears
in the National School Digest for the
month of November which will be of
much interest to all rural School Dis
tricts. 1t bears the above title.
The unanimous verdict of a great
number Of state and county superin-
tendents and leaders in rural educa-
ton, gathered at Cedar Falls, Iowa,
last February to attend The First
National Conference on Consolidated
Schools was that the consolidated
rural high school is the best and only
available meal to give the farmer
boys and girls of America an educa-
ton in keeping with American ideals
of democracy and equality Of educa-
tional opportunities for urban and
rural children. The consolidated or
centralized country school has now
been tried out under favorable as
we'll as the most u%nfavorable condi-
tions of weather and roads, in dense
ly and in sparsely settled states, in
rough and hilly regions, on the level
prairies, and in poor and in rich COM
munities. Difficulties of operation
have not been found wanting, but the
superiority of the centralized yer the
one-room country school is. so marked
that comparison between two systems
is almost odious. Intelligent, progress
sive farmers everywhere are rapidly
swinging to the support of the con-
solidation movement.
There have never been more than
two valid objections to consolidation,
namely, difficulty of transportation
during certain seasons of the year,
and the increased cost owe the one
room school. Experience has clearly
demonstrated that in severe winter
weather little children who walk to
school a mile or two each day suffer
more from exposure than those who
ride several miles daily in modern,
comfortable school buses. While the
average school tax for the support of
d modern consolidated school is from
fifty to a hundred per cent higher
than it was for the old eone-room
school system, it is true that the ef-
ficiency of the new school greatly
exceeds that Of the old. If rural COM
munities would exercise greater care
in the organization and administration
Of the consolidated school, and closely
follow the advice of the state depart
ments of education, over one-half Of
the usual mistakes and annoyances
would be eliminated. 1t is the height
Of folly for any rural community to
launch a consolidation project without
first seeking aid Of the county super
intendent Of schools, state officer or
some rural school expert who is an
authority on the subject.
