Wisconsin Vocational Schools
Ahead of Other States.

Why the vocational schools of Wis
consin are visited from every state
in the. union and by foreign educat-
ors as, well, is explained in the fol-
lowing way by John Callahan, State
Superintendent of Public Instruc-
ton: - ~:
''The Wisconsin method of dealing
with the continuation and part-time
school problem, is what has put it
ahead of many states in this respect.
Placing the administration of the
work in a board that makes it it's
business to look after it, is what has
'speeded the work up, whereas if
each city had had it's own problem
to look after, there could have been
no consolidated movement. Some
places would have hesitated to take
up the work, and others would not
have the necessary equipment and
funds, for what is everybody's bust
ness is no-body's business"

was the recommendation today of State
Engineer w. +. Mcclure to the Color
ado River Commission which, under the
chairmanship of Secretary of Commerce
Hoover, opens Il western series of pub
lie meetings at Phoenix tomorrow on
Colorado River flood control and water
power projects.
Such was the information received
here this afternoon in telegram from
Mr.. Mcclure to the Imperial Irrigation
District offices.
Hearings Program Told
State Engineer Mcclure likewise
made public the tentative itinerary
aud program Of the commission g hear
ings as arranged by Clarence s. Stet-
son, executive secretary of the com
mission. Mr. Mcclure, California :
commissioner on the commission, was
sought as to his opinion concerning
where the California hearings should
be held.
According to his telegram to Secre.
tarv +. ii. McIver of the Imperial IT.
rigation District here today, Mr.. Nc
Clurc wired the commission s secretary
recommending one-day field examina-
ton in the Imperial Valley, probably
March IS, with the California public
hearings to be held in Los Angeles,
tentatively March % and "a.
The probable itinerary and program
of the western conferences of the COM
mission were made public today by
Clarence S. Stetson, executive secre-
tary, rs follows:
One Day in Valley
March Is to II, inclusive, at Phoenix,
to cover the eases of New Mexico and

tor Los Angeles, between March 1S and
20, to cover the ease of California;; Salt

that the chairman, Secretary Hoover,
desires discussions at the public hear
