The lives of some people seem to
indicate a regret that there are only
10 commandments to break.

To make the public school system,
both elementary and higher education,
attain its greatest usefulness TO the
American people, three things are quite
important.
First, extend industrial education
until about one-half the time is spent
on text books and the other half on
learning trades and making boys and
girls useful citizens.
Second establish public school saw
ings system where every child will
learn as early in life las possible to
accumulate small savings instead of
learning to spend money faster than
they earn it.
Third, sell school bonds direct to the
taxpayers in small denominations and
keep the interest money at home
With he people who paid the bills.
among these slight reforms put into
effect, the public educational system
might save our country from becoming
nation of soft-handed white collar
non-producer.

AMERICAN BANKERS AS
ISOLATION

Coming in the midst of the pres:-
Dental campaign, particular interest
will attach this year to the Conven-
ton at Chicago of the American
Bankers Association, which always
devotes large part of its sessions to
leading questions of general welfare
and to formulating a declaration of
principles on business and financial
subjects.
Walter W. Head, President of the
Association, pointing out the I'M
portance of this years meeting says:
:" The American Bankers Associa-
ton is to meet this year in the midst
of national campaign, in which are
involved the election of a president
and vice-president, the selection of
senators and congressman and the
determination of important questions
of foreign and domestic policy.
Such campaign always affects the
course of business and finance in
some degree.
"The American Bankers Assoc.a.
ton is not engaged in partisan
politics and its convention at Chi
cago, September 29-October I'd, will
be entirely devoid of partisan flavor.
Our convention however, will neces-
sarily take note of the situation to
which the country finds itself.

LIVE AND LEARN

five as people can learn from ex-
perience, without having to be hit on
the head with panic and hard times,
the recent slight depression in this
country should have taught its lesson.
When industry slowed up, jobs be-
came scarcer.
AS farm prosperity returns more men
have jobs not only on the farms but in
all lines of industry.
A man who works in sawmill or a
mine should realize that his job de-
ponds on prosperity in other lines OF
business which use the product he
produces.
The brakeman or engineer on a
freight train should realize that his job
depends on ''the other fellow" who
makes an article for transportation.
If we pull together as a nation sue
cess awaits us. If we fight among our
selves we court hard times and failure.
The work of the DAVIS committee Of
experts to formulate business-like
program for settlement of the Allied
Preparations tangle, further emphasizes
the value of team work along con-
structive lines.
The committee figured out such a
parctical plan that it will be adopted on
account of its simplicity. After five
years of European intrigue and jeal-
ousy, plain every day business sense
and honesty had to win out over politi-
cal inefficiency.
The people of Europe have suffered
five long years to learn their lesson
namely-that one nation cannot profit
at the expense of another.
How long individuals or nations suf-
fer during the process of education
depends upon their ability to learn
from observation and escape the severe
lessons which exerience gives to those
who refuse to learn otherwise.
The American people have only q
bright future before them if they stand
for the square deal policy which will
assure continued agricultural and in
dustrial activity.

DESTROYING WAR

1t is assuring and gratifying that in
the general movement throughout the
civilized world to outlaw and abolish
war, there is none more earnestly out
spoken in support of this movement
than President Coolidge or the Demo-
cratic presidential nominee, Mr.. Davis.
Both have made it clear that this
grand movement has their unqualified
support.
Both agree with the vast number OF
right-thinking people that war is
creature of savagery, passed down
through the ages from the time of
primitive man, and no longer tolerable
among civilized people.
The United States, now the premier
of nations, constituted of people devot-
ed to peace and abhorent of war, is
obligated by the standing among
nations it has attained and its influence
in world affairs to lead the movement
for universal disarmament
Wherever and whenever the ques-
ton of disarmament ARISES, the strong
voice of his government should speak
UP in its behalf.
President Coolidge and Mr.. Hughes,
his Secretary of state, took long step
in the right direction when they called
a conference to consider the question
of disarmament.
1t turned the world-mind from
thoughts of war to peace. 1t was an
accomplishment when rightly appraised
that will illumine the pages of history
for all time, for it set ineffaceably the
seal of condemnation on the adjudica-
ton of national differences by military
arbitrament and turned the dynamic
thought of the world from war to peace.
What an inspiring thought that war,
the most destructive of all monsters,
is itself to be destroyed!

is YOUR CHILD READY FOR
SCHOOL

Examination of the children who will
enter school this fall and who have been
brought to the health conferences that
are being held in different parts of the
state by the Bureau of Child Hygiene
of the State Department of Health, has
revealed conditions that were not sus-
pected but that would handicap the
child very seriously in later life if they
were not corrected now.
The other day, bright eyed manly
little figure came to the door of one of
the conferences, looking for the nurse.
There she was standing by the scales
and in minute he caught her eye.
'sWhy, Jackie" she said, chow you
have improved" Quick as flash, he
slipped out of his little suit; held up his
chest and drew long breath while the
nurse placed the tape measure under
his arms. twenty-five, twenty three
inches, " she read. keep it up" she
said, you'll soon be big and strong, ;
Jackie will enter school this fall and
when mother heard, few weeks ago,
that the Bureau was holding these con-
ferences for the five and six year Odds,
she decided to take him to the next
one, just for general going over
apparently he was perfectly we'll. But
when the doctor examined the little
fellow, he found that his shoulders and
spine were beginning to show signs of
serious deformity that was cramping
the chest, squeezing the lungs and
keeping out much of the fresh air
needed to help him resist the dreaded
tuberculosis.
No medical or surgical treatments are
ever given at the conference but
whenever such treatment is needed,
the mother is advised to go to her own
physician or to specialist So Jackie
went to the specialist who put brace
on him that is Strengthening the should
ers and strengthening the spine.
Daddy is teaching him to swim and to
exercise his muscles and to take long
deep breaths, and mother reminds him
to sit and stand and walk erectly and
they are all making wonderful lob of
it, with the fear of tuberculosis disap-
pearing farther and farther into the
background every day.
Is your child ready for school.

Headlines in newspapers say there
will be a fight for tariff reduction on

Why should there be any fight !?
Why should not tariff experts find out
exactly what protection various Amer

fight about business proposition such
as this which is a question of fact,

White House Radio Shut Off :
Democrats We're Too NOisv

one reporter suggested to an attache.
Radio" retorted that parsonage,
scornfully. There is no radio"
We've got work to do here Why,
man alive, this place was filled with
so much noise yesterday that a body
couldn't think. 1t got the visitors all
excited and it was decided we would
have to shut it up if we were to con-
duct any business"
Radio is MuxxIed.
The mystery had been solved. The
radio had been muzzled and it was
the delirious rumpus from Madison
Square Garden that was missing at
the White House today. Those ninety
minute demonstrations had simply
gotten on the nerves of the execu-
tive office workers, and to silence
them was the, only solution.
And. anyhow, the loud speaker hap
pened to occupy a room directly ad-
joining the chamber in which the
cabinet met today. Can you imagine
President Coolidge, Secretary of State
Hughes and the other government
leaders seriously discussing matters
of state with lusty-lunged Democrats
yelping in their ears from New York
"McAdoo for President" or "Hurrah
for Al Smith," or I'VE want John
Davis"
So. for the present, the White
House radio Is silent. TOO darned
much noise" is the frank explanation

Curt Jacobson, forty-one years old. of
New York City, described as the ring
leader in a conspiracy to flood the coun-
try with counterfeit 1000 bills, was
sentenced today by Justice Hoehling in

Washington men, was arrested on a
charge Of having in his possession a
Photographic copy of a plate from which
$1,000 bills are made at the bureau of

discovered by secret service men before
it could be put into execution.
James G. Houghton. fifty, for the last

August Habicht, thirty-fve, an expert

the penitentiary. Because Of the pre-
vious good character Of these two, coun-

ing refused. He pointed out that coun-
terfeiting is a serious crime.
Habicht gained notoriety some time

to which they belong, including the
Fascista workers. stopped work from

LEAGUE AIMS EXPLAINED.
President West, in Address, Dis
cusses Value of Classical Studies.

The value of classical studies in
achieving a higher education, ana
especially broader knowledge of
the English language, was empha
sized by DR.. Andrew F. West. presi-
dent of the American Classical
League, in an address at dinner
given in his honor at the Arts Club
last night. The dinner was attended
by about seventy people, including
members of the league and the club.
Latin and Greek, he said, are nee
essary in order to set forth the full
beauty of the English language. the
English language is solid and VIII
and contains the proper touch OF the
classical and other languages.
There were during the last year
more than 100000 students studying
Latin in the universities, which con
stituted a greater number than the
students of all other classical IAN
guages combined. DR.. West said. In
conclusion, he said that art ana
literature must flourish together II
they are to flourish Well
Address of Welcome.
G. A Lyon, president of the Arts
Club. welcomed DIR. West and mem
hers of the league in behalf of the
club and praised the work that the
organization is doing. DR.. Mitchell

On Trip to Study
ID. e.. Air Currents

For the purpose of getting some
inside dope on the muggy weather
that hung over the city today and at
the same time to get in few hours
of practice, Capt. r. f. O'Neill and
Lieut. James C. Cluck of the Army
air service foated through the mist
over the District shortly before noon
today for an unknown destination.
The balloon. assigned to Boiling
Field, created much interest, as WASH
1ngtonians are not accustomed to any
lighter -than-air traffic. Many tele-
phone inquiries regarding the flight
were received by The Evening Star.
One of the perplexing meterolog-
ical questions balloon flights seek to
solve concerns the course taken by
an air current above the earth. Me-
terologists desire to know if a cur
rent at 500 meters stays at that
height or rises and falls in transit, all
of which has bearing on forecasting
precipitation.
Capt. O'Neill and Lieut. C1uck will
valve out sufficient gas to bring the
balloon to earth when desired and
Will return to Washington with it
