STUDENTS
At HOWARD
ON STRIKE

WASHINGTON, D. C. March A.
All students in the School of Applied
Science, including the departments OF
Engineering and Agriculture at How
ard University, went on a strike
Thursday morning of last week in pro-
test against the ousting of several stu
dents for non-attendance at chapel
services, according to the Washington
Tribune, OF this city. About 20 or Is
students are involved.
The striking students claim that be-
cause of their long hours and peculiar
nature of their work, they should be
given more consideration. 1t was
stated that the students in the Engi-
neering and Agriculture Schools have
TO put in from 80 to 48 hours a week
in contrast to the students in the
Schools of Liberal Arts, who only
have to put in Is hours a week. 1t
was further pointed out that the stu
dents have asked for hearing before
the faculty and were denied this priv
ilcgc, but were granted a hearing be-
fore the board OF deans.

versity. stated over the phone that
there was no strike at the university.
lie said that some of the students
wanted to have their way and had
violated some OF the school laws He
further stated that the striking stu
dents would not be allowed to appear
before the faculty. He said two of
the students had been suspended and
that others had withdrawn

was stated that both of these men have
done all they could to bring about an
adjustment of the trouble, but DR.
Durkec was determined that the stu
dents should attend chapel
One student said; 1T appears that
unless the faculty take some steps to
give these students fair play as in
other technical schools OF the United
States, the Applied Science Depart
ment of Howard University for the
present will be almost suspended, if
not completely"
Students in these departments start
their classes at 800 o'clock a. m, and
continue to 300; resuming class after
lunch, they remain in until $50 p. m.
But, because of the volume and ma
ture OF the work, students often have
to remain at their work until mid
night and longer. 1t is further pointed
out that these students have to pur-
chase equipment TO the amount of
500, which they have to use in their
work. After classes are over, they

The Carnegie Institute OF Pittsburgh
is sending a committee OF artists,
headed by Homer ST. Gaudens, son OF
the illustrious sculptor, Augustus St.

this country a collection of pictures OF
the most representative artists OF the

probably be sent on tour throughout

Sport Models
Speedster - Sport Touring

THE Sport Models, Speed
u ster and Sport Touring,
complete the Dixie Flyer
family, GROWING with distinc-
ton the efforts of Dixie
Engineers.
These cars, constituting the
latest acquisitions to the Dixie
line, are true sport models.
They reflect the ideas of in
vigorated, red-blooded youth;
characterized by individualism
without trace of freakish-
ness.
The Speedster is two-seat-
er that is given a racy appear
ance by special body design,
lowering of seats and inclin-
ing steering column and wind
shield. 1t is equipped with
removable, collapsible top
which is stored in the dust and
weather-proof rear compart-
ment when not in use.
The Sport Touring is five
passenger car of surprising
roominess with low-hanging,
one-man top jutting over the
sloping, nickel-trimmed wind
shield. A design that satisfies
the ultra fashionable and yet,
a car in which the family of
modest taste feels at home.
Both Speedster and Sport
Touring are deliberately pro
vided with special equipment

to the exceptional car value in

WASHINGTON, D. C., March A.
President Harding has been swsmped
with deluge OF kilograms protesting
the appointment of Arthur G. Froe as
recorder OF deeds at Washington. The
chief hue and cry against Attorney
Froe is who is he? No one knows
him." Those who protest Froes ap-
pointment declare that he was ap-
pointed as Senator Elkins' choice
rather than the choice of the people.

Plans Of the Hupp Motor Car Cor
poration call for tho building Of twice
ns many cars this year as in 1921, nc
cording to G. D. Hastings, prc,,idcnt
and general manager OF the corpora
tion. Mr. Hastings holds that produc-
tion policy should be based on the cx-
pert knowledge Of the manufacturer as
to the sales assets and liabilities Of his
own concern, rather than upon the good
or bad general outlook for the coming
year.
"To attempt anything like definite
and comprehensive prognostlcation Of
what 1922 holds in store for the auto
mobile industry and all of it's many
ramifications is much too big job for
and single individual to undertake" j"
says Mr.. Hastings.
~ am forced into such conclusion
not so much because Of the unsettled
conditions which have prevailed since
the ending Of the WorldWar as for the
reason that am fully aware that it is
next to impossible for a manufacturer
to forecast general conditions without
being Influenced by prejudice and bias
arising from the affairs surrounding
his own company.
"Thc plans of the Hupp Motor Car
Corporation call for the building of
twice as many cars this year as in
1921. Such an increase might be re-

at is the old story Of the survival
of the fttest, and once the industry is
ridden Of it's evil elements the future
is by no means unpromising.
II am convinced beyond doubt that
there will be gradua! business ewak
ening during the coming months which
will be beneficial tc every dcsss:i;i.
unit among the automotive makers.
"All over tho country there is evi-
dence Of renewed confidence among the
buyers, and while, Of course. certain
sections will be much more eslow ir
returning to normal than others, we
can, I believe, assure ourselves that
conditions, even in the hardest hit dis
trcts, will be on the mend rather than
on a decline.
Furthermore, the export situation is
in our own case, furnishing not a little
encouragement. Our November and
December exeport sales showed an al.
most arazing increase. despite the
countless handicaps confronting it al
this time"

are returning when motor cars will be
sold as rapidly as they arc manufac-
turcd and that the makers will never
be able to build quite enough Of them
to supply the demand.
"This is not the case at nll. We
aren't increasing our production for
any reason Of that kind. We are do
ing it simply because our knowledge
Of the intimate affairs Of our organi-
ftion convinccs US there will be ready

"That is why l accept the invitation
to furnish a 1922 forecast of automo-
tive conditions with not only consider
able hcsitaacy, but also with consid-
cradle doubt as to whether any worth
while significance may be attached tc
it, in so far as its helpful application
to the general trade Is concerned,' Mr.
Hastings explains.
"To me. however, one Of the most
encouraging elements entering into the
situation, ns it affects the future, is
what | consider a most pleasing degree
df conservative optimism that seems tc
pcrmeate the minds Of the executives
OF many OF the older and better cs-
tablished companies.
"The trying times Of the last year
or so have, hope, eliminated that
element Of irresponsiblity, of unwar-
ranted and too often positively foolish
enthusiasm which have worked more
harm to the recognized stability of the
business than all of the other adverse
conditions combined.

the Fircstone Scholarship and prizes

and similar studies have been under
taken, and while this work, like that
of the other organizations, is yet in the
making, it is ali making for better
public understanding of what highway
transport means.
What has been undertaken nation
ally is the basis for state and local
programs which must be undertaken
and in which men in the automotive
industry, highway leaders, educators
and public officials must take an active
part If we are to conserve not only
public and private resources but the
lives of our children

safety; for not only is the child of
today the cruN Of the traffic problem,
but he is as we'll the potential driver
of motor vehicle. More, the child
should know something about the un-
dcrlying meaning of highway transport,
as should the high school and college
student, and in the development Of
these courses there is field of high en-
dcavor for that citizen who would build
a memorial to himself in the form of
endowments for his colleges and schol-
arships.
Finally, there exists a community Of
interest which should bring the student
of highway transport into close and
sympathetic cooperation with public
officials charged with the carrying on
of the work of building, maintaining
and operating of our highways. Men Of
high ideals Of public service, these off,
