SURVEY OF PUBLIC
SCHOOL GRADUATES
Detroit officials TO Collect Life Histories
TO Disclose Defects of Public
Education

DETROIT. Mich. Feb. 21.-Oficials
of the public school system here have set
themselves the task of learning how each
perSon attending the schools fares after
he leaves the institution. An exhaustive
survey. requiring years to carry 1t out, Is
to be undertaken at once in the hope that
any defects that may be incorporated In
the school system here may be discovered
in this way and remedied.
The study of each student in the schools
will begin on the day the pupil quits the
institution. His marriage, the births of
his children, his occupation, salary. stand
ing i'm the community and whether he
ever is arrested. all will become known to
the school officials and card indexed.
The successful persons in life Will be
separated from the failures and a closer
study made of those who fail in the effort
to learn if the shortcomings are due,
either directly or Indirectly, to the LOCAL
school system.
Arthur L. Lederle, head of the attend
ance division of the local schools and
president of the National League of Conn
pulsory Education officials, is sponsoring
the experiment. said 10 be the first of its
kind ever undertaken anywhere. Several
years will be required, il is believed, to
complete the. survey.
City government departments have
agreed to keep the school officials supplied
with information about the persons under
investigation.

Only Money Available.
The only, money due the United States
government aside from taxation and i'm
port duties Is interest and principal on
foreign loans. The allies thus far have
believed the United States would mot
press for payment The demands Of the
soldiers for a bonus may become q lev
erage behind which the American debt
commission will operate in it's effort to
persuade the allies that reputation or
cancellation of the debt is unthinkable.
Opinion. of course is divided as to
whether it would be gust to use the pro-
cccdS from the allied debt to- pay a
bonus The original law whereby the
Liberty loans were raised provided that
the first moneys received from the allies
should go toward the payment of inter
est on Liberty bonds This viewpoint
has recently been expressed at the White
House. too. But even granting that the
proceeds from the allied payments are
applied to pay interest on Liberty bonds,
the advocates of a bonus insist that the
United States viii then have available
from direct taxation the Sums which
! now are DtiHE EdlStu 10 pay iiAfItNt Ril
Inublic debt something like $500. zoo. 900
a wear. If the allied payments reduce
that amount, for example, by S30O000,-
600 annually, there will be an pquiva-
lent sum available from direct taxation
wherewith the bonus might be paid.
Schemes Galore.

and Furnish Money for Soldier Bonus.
BY DAVID LAWRENCE.
Especial Despatch to The Reforlner|
Copyright 1922.
WASHINGTON, Feb, 21.-The bonus
problem gets bigger and. bigger. Mere
negatives from the executive end of the
government fail to stem the tide of SEN
timent on Capitol Hin for some kim" of
bonus. The Democrats who are not
displeased over the political discontinue
of the Republicans are telling the. Legion
men that if the Republicans really
wanted 10 pass Il bonus and pay it, they
could.
But where would the money be sb-.
tanned? It's here the complcxity of the
financial problem of the government af
fords opportunity for all sorts of
schemes One Democratic senator told
the writer. tor instance. that the British
government was ready and able to pay
part Of its debt to the United States
government and was also able to pay in
terest and a part of the sum borrowed
from. American banking concerns before
the United States entered the war in
1917. He insisted that back of the fight
against the bonus was the determination
of these banking interests to get their
money before the American government
received anything from England.
Hard to Trace.
This kind of argument is hard to trace
down. The Anglo-French loan tloated
in the United States before the war
amounted TO $500 100000. The inter-
est payments have been regularly met.
If any sum beyond that was loaned to
American. ammunition firms, the treas
ury hasn't the figures. Some estimates
run as high as 500O.000O00- bat the
statistics cannot he verified. There has
| been 4 recurrence of these rumorS in the
| last few days because of the statements
| from French officials that France prob
! ably wouldn't be able to pay its debt ia
| the United States at any time.

TWO FORDS COLLIDE
ON BROADWAY

A fatal accident was narrowly
averted Sunday morning at the corner
of Fourth street and Broadway, when
the Ford touring cars being driven By
Milton Reynaud and Hiram Bradford
collided and both cars turning over
pinned the occupants under the cars.
People on the street who witnessed
the accident gave their assistance and
the cars were quickly righted. None
of the occupants were injured with
the exception of a few scratches.
Mr.. Bradford had been TO Carthage
to meet his sister, Mrs. James Good
win, Of Kansas City, who came to at
tend the funeral of her aunt, Mrs.
Maggie Bradford. At Joplin she
missed her connection, and phoned to
her family here, and her brother
motored to Carthage for her. They
were the only occupants in the Brad
ford car. In the car with Milton
Reynaud, were his brother, George
Reynaud, and Carl Kalt and another
young man whose name was not
learned.
Both steering wheels or the cars
were broken, the wind shields broken,
the tops damaged and the radiator Of
the Reynaud car badly damaged.

WHY SET APPLE TREES NOW?

Because there are over so per cent
less apple trees now than there were
in 1910, according to the Washington
Bureau of reports. There are also
over so per cent less peach trees than
in 1910. What will be the result?
There is going to be scarcity OF
fruit in few years, therefore now is
a fine time to get into the game. We
have the biggest and incest block of
TWO YEAR old trees we have ever
grown, including Black Ben, Ben
Davis, Gano, Staymens Winesap,
Grimes, King David, Jonathan, and
all the leading varieties. We also
have a block of one year old trees
that pleases all those who have in
spected it. This includes all the
standard varieties. We have about
10000 nice peach trees, also berry
plants, cherries, ornamentals and etc.
