To Fight Consolidation
Administration Plan to Join Army and Navy De
 partments Will Meet Strenuous Opposition.

Tt is very easy to wreck the or ganization of our government that has slowly been built up on solid founda- ton through experiences of a century and a half" said Poindexter whose views are shared by Senator Page, (R) of Vermont, chairman of the Naval Affairs committee. '.The Army and Navy are cordially coordinated by the fact that they have a common commander in chief in the President It is sheer folly to imagine the en- tirely different functions of the Army and Navy can be actually directed by one man.
 These two departments are based on utterly different principles. requir-
 ing different training, different equip ment, and different education. "It is rather unreaSona ble to ex- pect an unknown so-called efficiency clerk knowing nothing of either the science of var on land or on sea. to benefit the government by consoli- dating them into one departna ent.'

Washington, May 29-The admins tration's reorganization plan of con- solidating of the War and Navy de- partments under one head will meet with strenuous opposition in Congress, it was learned today.
 As Congress holds the final word in enactment of legislation necessary to perfect the merger, it was indicated that the plan would be defeated. Ad ministration influence might jam the legislation through the House but it's rejection by the Senate seemed as sured by the opposition even Of ad- rlinistration leaders there.
 Senator Wadsworth, Republican, of New York, of the Senate Military Af- fairs Committee and Senator Poin- dexter Republican, of Washington, ranking member of the Senate Naval Affairs committee, will lead oppon- ents of the bin in the Senate.

Habit and custom make unreason- able things seem reasonable. Who would suggest that Dr. Jones and Lawyer Blank ought to give up their jobs, because they are married. or because there are two young persons like their jobs. It is quite usual to suggest that Mrs. Principal Jones and Mrs Professor Brown and Mrs, Instructor Robinson should give up their work and the fruitage of their training, just because they are Mrs. '' and just because there are others who would like to hold their jobs.

Is Some Actual Moth erhOod Needed in Public $ cnOol+ Should Married Wo- man Be Deprived of Right to Practice H CT Profession Problems for Times Readers to Try Their Minds On.

Modern concept of education re- quires that the schools shall at all times number among their teachers a certain substantial percentage of actual wives and mothers. The in- struction of thousands of children entirely by unmarried women does not produce the sympathetic and rounded result which a school sys- tenn ought to render. A Ieaven of real mothers broadens the under standing of child nature in the public schools and is imperative to the best results.

Nobody says to a male school teach CT. You are married, you are a fath- CT. get out of the public schools Should it be said to a woman, You have been six years in training, you have taken some thousand of hours of extra work to fit you for your duties as a teacher, now you are married and you canot practice your profess sion.' Bridgeport Board of Educa- ton has taken this possession, that married women must not be deprived of their jobs. simply because they are married.

Another principle ob action has been put forward in this age of fem fnism. in which women have the bal lot, and the same right to use it that men have. A woman having Iabori- ously equipped herself for the lofty task of teaching the children of the city. Is not, under the rules of equity. to be deprived of her right to prac- tice her profession merely because she assumes the duties of matrimony and motherhood.

This is a fruitful field for thought. During many years the economic sys- tenn has been changing. Women have been going into every line of effort and the home sustained by the earning power or husband ana wife Is far from a novelty. These changes point to a very different type of industrial society. The world is not the same as it was. What will the new world be?
