President Defers Address
To Congress Regard
ing Strike Until Peace
Effort is Past.

New York, Aug. 17.-Railway
executives and brotherhood chair
man who conferred here today in
an effort to end the country wide
shopmen's strike, had failed at
4:3O o'clock to reach an agree
ment, with indications that the
parley, still in progress, might
have to be continued tomorrow.
New York, Aug. 17.-(By AS
sociated Press. )--The fifth effort
by an outside agency to end the
nationwide shopmen's strike that
began more than six weeks ago
was made today when leaders OF
the railroad brotherhoods went in
to conference with committee
representing railroad officials at
the Broadway headquarters of the
Association OF Railway Execu-
lives.
The only labor officials at the
conference were representatives of
the big four brotherhoods.
Mr.. Jewell issued the following
statement:
Jewell's Statement.
''The officers of all the railway
labor organizations are here now,
continuing as they have through
out the strike to do everything
possible to bring about an AMIGA
BILE settlement"
Shortly before 3 o'clock the ex-
ecutives sent out word from the
conference room that they wished
brought in files Containing decis-
Ions by the railroad labor board
in previous strikes.
One decision was made in con-
nection with the switehmen's
strike Of 1920. In decision re-
-urned in October of that year, the
BOARD ruled that the strikers were
20 be deprived of their seniority
'ighs.
Anoher decision sought was one
made in April, 1921, in connection
switchmen's strike on south
With a switchmen's strike on
road, in which
trikers also were deprived OF
heir seniority rights.

WARDS OF ABYSSINIAN KING
TO STUDY IN OHIO COLLEGE
S0lom0n'S Descendants Will Hunt
Wisdom Where President
Harding Went to School.

Three Of them are here, Matthew.
Mark and Luke, described as wards Of
the acting king Of Abyssinia and mem
bers Of the royal household. One Won
ders where John is, but there's no
need to wonder over Biblical royal
names popping up In Abyssinia, for
the monarchs of that ancient and ro-
mantle land claim descent from King
Solomon and the queen Of Sheba.
Yes, 1t is gravely recorded in the
Abyssinian book of kings that the
queen Of Sheba, whose kingdom lay
In the mountainous region Of what was
once called Ethiopia, presented King
Solomon with a son. who was named
Menelik-ever since a royal name In
Ethiopia.
So it is possible that in the veins
Of the dusky Matthew, Mark and Luke,
who were presented to President
Harding the other day, flows the
mingled blood of the wisest Of kings
and the African queen who came ito
prove him with hard questions re-
minds a New York Sun writer. And
she gave him, you remember, IAN hum
dred talents of gold, and of spices
very great store, and precious stones"
The daily star-mirror. (Moscow, Idaho) 1911-1939, 1922-08-30

all of which pleasant articles are
among the products of Abyssinia to-
day.
Like their great ancestress, Matthew,
Mark and Luke are on a pilgrimage
in search of wisdom. AS there's no
King Solomon in the world today
they're carrying their quest to an
American college, where they hope to
become B. AS and know a number Of
things that Solomon forgot to tell the
queen Of Sheba.
They have selected President Hard
ing's college in Ohio, now Muskingum
university. A fatherly American med
Ical missionary presented them to the
President, who gave them the glad
hand
1t Is not on record that they brought
the President any inconvenient pres
ents. The late Emperor Menelik had
hearty way Of presenting people he
admired with lions. He sent couple
to President Roosevelt once, intrust-
ing them to an American mission,
which would have been better pleased
with a couple of extra mules. Also
he burdened them with a pair Of
enormous elephant tusks for Colonel
Roosevelt and the toting Of the royal
bounty made their trek back to the
coast an exciting one. One Of the lions
died on the way.
Since the death of Menelik, the
strong man Of Abysinnia, there has
been much fractional fighting among
the numerous races that make up the
population, with gloomy signs Of re-
lapse into the barbarism that reigned
before Menelik's time. The throne has
been occupied Jointly for the most part
by Menelik's daughter, Queen Waizeru
Zauditu, and Prince Ras Taffari Ma
konnen, son Of brother-in-law Of
Menelik.

/; far as / know but he dropped a few
words while here that were food FOL
thought for every home seeker. H,
said nothing new but he did reiteratt
the facts.
Moscow is the best town in the
west in which to rear family" said
he, in paying tribute to the educatfon-
al advantages here. "In most places
there is opportunity to give children
high school education but here they
can be kept in school until they have
finished college"
In making this assertion he struck
the principal drawing card of the
community. A place may have any
kind of climate, business advantages
and the like, but after all people arc
most interested in the education of
their children And it is the constant
desire of parents to give their Off
spring the best Of schooling to fit
them for the duties Of life.
The university on the hill is no
doubt the biggest asset the city holds
for such people. Its potency in the
lives of human beings is being ex-
pressed more and more every day.
There was time not sc long ago
when people considered college ed
ucation more or less superflIous.
That time has passed in the minds OF
most men and women and is rapidly
passing the opinion of all.
Today the individual is not consid-
cred educated unless he possess a
college degree. 1t is not argued that
the degree in anyway signifies his fit
ness for life but it is contended and
with substantial reasoning that all
other things being equal, the advanced
learning acquired in the higher insti-
buttons of education is of inestimable
worth to the young person.
Our democracy places within the
power of practically every young man
or woman the opportunity to get
college education. This has resulted
in a large percentage of enlightened
young people, with the consequence
that competition along every line OF
endeavor has increased and is increas-
ing more and more.
With so many persons acquiring
higher education the demand for
persons of mediocre ability and learn
luS 10 ldpluly poooluS. Ohiy eh0 oOo'
equipped are the most desirable in any
occupation.
The colleges and universities were
once the strongholds of culture where
in the individual was trained to poss-
ess the dignity and caste feeling of his
position. That too has gone Nova
days the same institutions are actual
ly preparing graduates for serv-
ice to themselves and to their COM
munities and country.
The refinement of college education
The daily star-mirror. (Moscow, Idaho) 1911-1939, 1922-08-30

is not disappearing, but the general
aims have changed. No more is the
young person imbued with the idea
that an education in the higher in
situations Of learning gives him a GER
tain superiority over his less FORUM
ate fellow men. 1t merely gives him
broader vision and more knowledge
whereby he may become better citi-
zen and better worker for the world
in general.
The argument may be advanced that
there are SO many instances of men
rising to prominence without an ed
ucation in the colleges and univers-
tiles that the statements | have just
given will not hold. But | wish to
point out that this conception is
gradually being relegated along with
other outworn theories.
Indeed there are people who have
become great without educational ia
cilities, but these people did so in
spite of thir lack of training and not
because of it. Moreover, if one will
but make study of statistics this
hallucination will be dissipated quick
ly.
Pick up a who's Who" magazine
and the number who have succeeded
with a college education will so far
outnumber the percentage that sue
ceeded in sipte of limitations that
there are no comparisons.
Moreover, statisticians have prov
ed conclusively that an education pays
in dollars and cents. The figures talk
in unmistakeable language. Any ed
wit "a orfc
Then too the small number that
succeeded despite their lack of edI-
cation were very exceptional men,
Not all of us can aspire to such a
fate, nor can all us be lawyers or
doctors or become president of the
United States. Again there same men
have reaped success because they have
studied outside Of the regular institu-
tons of learning.
1t really makes not great deal of
difference whether an education is
gained in or out of college in one way,
but in another it does. The college
is more conducive to learning. A
wider range of information is obtain
able and the environment is right for
applied effort. And further, a college
degree is coming to mean something
more than it used to. A person cannot
go through college without learning
things of unknown value outside OF
the class room. These are absolutely
essential in life.
The man or woman who merely
learns the theories bound in books is
not educated. He or she must he
practical. The institutions Of higher
education realize this and are bending
every effort to make education prac-

Moscow for educational advantages
offered realized this.
All parents do. And that is what
makes the city Of Moscow such an
attractive place in which to reside.
The children can be educated from
the kindergarten to the college degree
here and all the way along be assured
of the very best educational facilities.
The Moscow public schools are ex-
cellent and the University Of Idaho
has record and name that would
make any man proud Of marticulat-
ing from her halls of learning.

And they are meeting with success.
If you do not believe it, just pick up
the alumni directory for the Univers-
ity Of Idaho and note the positions that
ninety per cent of the graduates Till.
They are attractive occupations and
ones requiring knowledge of highly
developed character.

low the high school. The young man
