 intimately the personal welfare of

 many, our city government Is the
 most important feature of our politi-

 most common and failure most con- spicuous.
 Though Thomas Jefferson made government one of the departments
 of the University of Virginia in 1925, and though Francis Iieber taught
 the principles of government in
 South Carolina for two decades about the middle of the last century, and Woodrow Wilson filled the chair of Political Science at Princeton for

 In the University of Alabama to the course Tn the government of the United States, offered by Dean Bid- good in 1913. course in the govern ment of the leading nations of Europe was added in 1911. Whcn
 the chair of Political Science was established and filled by Professor Edmund G. Howe in 1920 the course in American government was greatly
 expanded and courses in contempo-
 rary governments and contemporary politics were added. These two are elective and can be taken only after the completion of the first years work. Last year each enrolled from 90 10 40 students. Advanced courses In American politics, English colonial governments, governments of the new states of Europe. and courses in the theory of government will be added as soon as means make 1t pos sible. The coming of woman suffrage

". ttOWE
 One of the newest and most popular of subjects at the University of Ala bama is Political Science. Introduced nine years ago, 1913. a single course in American government, given by the professor of economies to class of 40 students, Political science now has it's full time professor and two as- sistants, three full courses and more than 300 students. The number of students in 1921-22 was nearly twice that of 1920-21, the first year of the separate existence of the department, and it Is quite certain that the num- Der will be much larger in later years.
 The rapid development of this sub ject as college study and it's in- creasing popularity have come in re sponse to the widely prevalent feel ing of need for informed and trained leaders in all departments of munich pal, state and national government and for definite and systematic tram ing for those who through diplomacy determine our. international relations. As We train young men for military officers in case of possible future war, so we train men and women for leadership in politics and for the mastery of the many and complex problems of government sure to arise.
 These problems and their right solution are more important In America today because all nations look to us as they have never before looked to any country. The acts of our Presidents. our Congress and our judiciary are carefully watched by all the world. the destinies of which are largely determined by our policies.
 As to the solution of most of the great flood of new problems the l wisest and best of our own statesmen and those of other countries differ widely--so widely and radically as to Indicate a lack of understanding of fundamental principles. Witness in this country the tariff bills. the bonus bill the refunding bills, budget deficits, the reserve banking system. the limitation of immigration, ship subsidy bills, and the many prob lems arising out of the war and the necessities of reconstruction. There Is no less reed for trained l leadership in the service Of our sovereign states, with their problems of elections, police. education. bank | ing. insurance, public utilities and 1 commerce. through which they are related to each other and to the | federal government. The difficulty and complexity of their problems are indicated by the facts that in the | five years between 1909 and 1913 mora | than 62,000 new statutes were enacted | in this country. and 65,00o decisions | of courts of last resort were rendered. | Since the war acts and decisions are still numerous. Only wiser and better informed statesmen in our lawmak- ing bodies can prevent our legisla- tion from becoming tewildering and ineffective.
 For municipal government trained leaders are needed no less than for state and national government. The l modern industrial and commercial

Lloyd George Entertaining Poincare at Polo Match, But Serious Business Planned,
 Says Bird
By WILLIAM rIHD
Special Dispatch to The ASe- Herald lCopyriEht. 1892. by The Age-HeraidD

NNoPyAtHAAs AD~TH VI NAS ~ASS-AApteSANS
 Paris, June 17.-Horseback diplo- macy is having it's innings in London today, where Premier Poincare is being entertained by Premier Lloyd George at polo match. Those who recall that Lloyd George brought about the downfall of M. Briand by taking him to the golf links at Cannes are wondering whether the equestrian sport may not affect Poincare in a more or less disastrous manner.
 Not that the French premier ae- tually will mount a pony-that would be too Napoleonic-but the very at- mosphere of the British sporting fields has a curiously demoralizins effect on distinguished foreigners. 1t is easy to fall into the general Brit ish sporting spirit of gIve and take and the risk Is that before he gets safely back to Calais Poincare may give much more than he takes even counting the 5,000,000 francs London is presenting to her adopted daughter, Verdun.
 Poincare in Earnest
 Anybody who supposes that Poin- care is in London merely to make eloquent speeches about Anglo French solidarity is badly mistaken. The chief object is to prepare base for The Hague conference which at present is constituted only of some unhappy. lonesome experts, who vaguely wonder why nobody pays any attention to the fact that they again are saving the world.
 What cramped Lloyd George at Genoa more than anything else was the reparations question which the Cannes program forbid him discuss ing and that's what he particularly desires to talk to Poincare about nov. It is significant that official hints have been dropped in Paris during the week that while France will never consent to reduction in Ger many's debt unless granted a pro portionate reduction in Her own obs legations, she would listen attentively to any proposal for the postponement of payments. French critics say that this means that France does not par tieularly care about getting actual money from Germany, but she only wants to have perpetual credit against Germany recognized.
 The suggestions did not arouse much protest in France even among theamost bitter anti-Germans, so an extension of the moratorium may be looked for with probable compensat- ing concessions on Great Britains part in Asia Minor.
 As for Russia, she will be less at the front at The Hague than at Ge- noa since the collapse of LenIne has caused all hands to wait to see what policy will be adopted by the com- mittee which is now directing Rus sia's affairs.

gtries A system of administrative law as well as a system of civil law has grown up--a distinction unknown in England and America.
 History Is past politics; politics is present history" The course In cur rent politics Is given to help the stu dent to understand that history is being made now just as really and truly as 1t was made in the days of Pericles. of Caesar. of Washington, of Napoleon. or of Bismarck. Mem bers of this class must subscribe to a weekly magazine and are urged to read constantly other periodicals daily, weekly and monthly, for diff ferent points of view. The wider read one is the less liable is he to unjust bias or to the influence of blind prej- udice.
 It is needless to say that all this is done without any attempt at politi- cal propaganda of any kind. The function of the university is to find and teach the truth and not to prose lyte This course has naturally att tracted many who take 1t only Tor the sake of intelligent'interest in cur rent events and not for college credit, and some Of these continue to take 1t from year to year.
