In the cabinet recently in connection
with the coal strike and the unem-
ployment situation. 1t was pointed
out. he said, that besides the esti-
mated saving in actual tonnage, it

the nation. and will make coal min

at present by furnishing a steady
market for the products of the mines.
me government is now working
on development plans for the project
through the geological survey, which
already has issued a preliminary re-
port on the subject. and it is not the
intention OF the government to finance
the project, Mr.. Hoover added. On
the other hand. the government is in
terested in the estimated annual saw
ing of coal and man-power and in
creased employment, which ii is be-
lieved, will be made possible through
the carrying out of the super-power

CUT-UP SPIRIT LOSES
OLD COLLEGE POWER,
SAYS HARVARD HEAD
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
CINCINNATI Ohio, April 18.-
The "cut-up" spirit is rapidly sub
siding at Harvard University. ac-
cording to a statement made last
night by it's president, DR.. A. Law
renee Lowell, at the annual diu-
ner Of the Harvard Club here.
Playing of pranks during class
sessions is in disfavor. he said. be-
cause university students have be-
come imbued with community
spirit under the regimes of stu
dent councils.
1.-THE enrolment at Harvard Is
increasing and the influx Of new
students from the west, middle
west and the south is far in ex-
cess of those coming from New
England" said DR.. Lowell. with
large enrollments each year, edu-
cational reforms have kept pace
with the times. 1t is the aim of
the university to teach men to
think and not to memorize."
1.-The art of life is not in solv--
ing problems so much as 1t is in
recognizing a problem when 1t ap-
pears" Dr. Lowell added. while
the world has many who are able
to untangle a situation, it has few
who see clearly great problems.
The man who can see the Arma-
geddoh approaching is ready for
its solution and he is the success
full man."

DEMAND PLAY LOT
FOR HALF STREET
Survey in Southwest Section
to Determine Action of
Officials.

Many calls are being made on the
District Commissioners and the mu-
nicipal Fairgrounds department for
new play spaces. Every petition or
request that is made is investigated
with a view to determining whether
the section can be accommodated,
either with the allotment of public
grounds or by obtaining the loan of
vacant lots privately owned.
Mrs. Susie Root Rhodes. director of
municipal Fairgrounds. has been re-
quested to locate a new playground
on Half street southwest between NJ
and N streets. An immediate exami-
nation was made of the property. Mrs.
Rhodes said that it would make an
ideal playground site, and she is haV-
ing made a study of the child popu-
lation there to determine the demand.
If the need for a playground is shown
immediate steps will be taken to OBJ
tain q lot.
Arranged by Precincts.
The proposed plot is located In the
fourth police precinct. For play
grounds purposes, the city has been
considered by police precincts. OF
dren's bureau says:
This precinct has the second high
est delinquency record of the city.
slightly exceeding that of precinct
No. 2. Washington must meet the
challenge presented by the delin-
quency records of these downtown
districts. Granting that there are
many contributing causes that give
rise to delinquency, further neglect
of play needs will be brought out
even more clearly.
The number of children between
five and nineteen years of age is 1888,
of which 4,764 are white and 3,069
colored. 80
The one playground in this section
for white children, the Hoover, is
loaned ground and is likely to be
Withdrawn at any time. The one
and one-half acres included in this
ground would be entirely inadequate
to serve the 4.764 white children were
it not that this section is near the
Monument grounds and Potomac
Park. For the white children be-
tween five and nine years of age, pro-
vision must be made. however. AS
except the playground games adapted
to their needs. At least the one and
one-half acres represented by the
Hoover playground should be made
permanent for the section. and the
Jefferson school yard should be used
the entire year, as it serves a section
quite other than that served by the
Hoover playground. Considering the
nearness to the Monument grounds.
a total of three acres should be pro-
Nided.

EDICT AGAINST TOBACCO.
Students of Schools Allowing
Weed Barred as Teachers.

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, April 1s.-
Student credits of schools in Kansas
which allow the use of tobacco on
the schoolgrounds or elsewhere will
not be acceptable for the issuance of
teachers certificates bv Miss Lorraine
Elizabeth Wooster, state superin-
tendent of schools, she said in a let
ter received by Chancellor John C.
Williams of Kansas City University
and made public today.
This places a new ruling on her
anti-tobacco rule list, made about
two weeks ago, when it was decreed
that no certificates would be granted
to users of tobacco, and that all
schools and colleges which permitted
the use of the weed by administra-
tive heads. instructors or pupils would
be stricken from the accredited list.

There Is very general interest in
the question: What Is the House

District committee, when asked
this question, said: There Is no
great rush for the House COM,

have other Important matters that
call for our attention first. ! do
not believe that we will hold any
hearings upon 1t, as the members
of the committee know pretty well
what the situation is. The bill has
not been changed very much since
1t was passed previously by the
House. suppose it will be passed
again because members of Con-
gross have felt the pressure of
blame, because few rascals
among the landlords in Washing
ton have taken advantages of the
