EQUAL PAY FOR TEACHERS

A new law in New York state removes whatever
discrimination remains against women school teach
ers the ground of SEX insuring equal salaries for
men and women. So economic equality of the
scores victory at time when it shows signs of
defeat in other quarters.
Surely the principle should apply in education, if
anywhere The teaching profession is largely given
over to women. 1t is recognized that in the public
schools at least, where the big majority of teachers
are employed, women by means inferior to men.
In fact, as teachers of children they usually
sidered superior.
Strict justice to individuals would require that
woman be given no less pay than man in any line
of work, if she does the work we'll a The
tendency is in that direction More employers yield to
it. Yet there is always deterrent factor, the feel
ing that women, whatever their ability and faithful
ness after all do not belong primarily in ganful
cupations but in homes and that however to the
individual may be for the interest of society to
tinue placing business premium men.

THE SIZE OF THE NAVY

The public remains strangely passive in the face
of demands for naval increases. When the Secretary
cares that the navy considerably below it's quota
under the 5-5-3 arrangement made at the Washington
conference, the public to regard the state
ment something to be expected of such personages,
and lets it go at that.
Naval secretaries and experts are always demand
ing larger navies The public, weary of and every
thing connected with war; especially taxes refuses to
get excited about the matter 1t feel that this
country is safe enough for the present and immediate
future that other power is going to attack u.s. and
that any warships built would probably be obso
ee anyway before they needed for practical
3s
This attitude may be dangerous 1t may be
unwise. Nevertheless it exists and is a force to be
reckoned with. sff.v<t
Those who are particularly interested in the mat
ter, and want action, might do we'll to insist
qury into the naval situation conducted by wholly
disinterested and unpreudced citizens. That would
establish the facts convincingly regarding
and rival naves. Then the necessary action might
be expected to follow.

A TOURING STATUE

1t is good idea on the part of the new repub-
lcan government in Greece to send on tour of the
United States, representative Of Greece, the fam
statue of Hermes carved than 1000 years
ago by the great Praxitees.
The Greece of which educated men and women
think in this modern world is the Greece of the past
rather than the present. The beautiful statue
Hermes, whom the Romans called Mercury, messenger
Of the gods and patron Of art science and commerce.
is fitting representative of historic Greece than
any living man could be- though it were Venizeos
himself. Ancient Greece taught the world the things
that Hermes stood for.
1t is appropriate, too, that Hermes should come to
America, which more than any other country today
represents the Greece of oden days America, as we
at least like to believe is the orchbearer OF culture
and progress for the present and future.
Newspapers naturally feel special interest in
this matter for Hermes Mercury is regarded now
particularly the patron of the press. If divinity
were really embodied in that marble, as reverent
Greek once believed, he might stand skyscrap
and mountain tops in wonder and admiration at the
way in which men have developed his work of spread
ing news. He might find our newspapers too, repre-
sentative of all his other functions and activities. For
the press not only carries news but promotes art,
science and commerce on ascae that the old Greeks
dreamed Of. f N

IN EXCLUSION
AGREED UPON
Coolidge Wins Fight to Take
Brunt or of Japanese
Provisions

Washington, May 8.--Presidcnt
Coolidge by strenuous last-minute
! efforts obtained from Senate and
House immigration bill confcrees an
agreement to recommend postpone
ment of statutory japanese exclusion
until March I, 1926 Such post
ponement would give the State de-
partment opportunity to negotiate
with Japan for exclusion by treaty.
Confronted with the prospects of
exclusion effective July 1, next, as
agreed to by the conferees, the
President held number of hurried
conferences with the result that the
conference committee ut session
late in the day rescinded their pre-
vious action and voted for the new
effect date.
1nsistence by the President for the
delay in operation Of the exclusion
section was the reason given by the
conferees for their unusual action.
Senator Reed, Republican, Pennsyl-
vania. as spokesman for the confer
ence, said the. new provision had
been proposed by the House MEM
bers at the request of the Pres
ident, and had been accepted by the
Senate members for that reason.
