Thoms opposed arbitrary con.
solidation based on geographical

Compulsory geographical con
solidation, fixed upon an arbitrarily

SCHOOL CENSUS
FAVORED BY
REPORT
Compulsory Attendance Law
Is Given o. K. by House
Subcommittee

The first step toward passage by
the House Of compulsory school
attendance and school census law
was taken today when a special
House subcommittee unanimously
reported the bill favorably to the
full District Committee.
Members of the subcommittee ex-
pressed confidence that the bill will
pass during the present session OF
Congress. The measure already has
been passed by the Senate.
The bill provides that all children
in the District between seven and
sixteen years of age must attend
school, except that children fourteen
years old who have completed the
eighth grade may obtain work per-
mits for actual legal employment.
Under the present law the school
attendance age limits are from eight
to fourteen years. No amount OF
education Is specified in the present
law, and children may leave school
at fourteen years no matter how
little education they have.
The bill was reported after a ses-
sion of the subcommittee lasting
less than half hour. There was
no opposition to any Of the features
OF the bill. A number of school of-
ficials, headed by Doctor Frank w.
Ballou and members of the Parent
Teacher Association, were present.

New Canvas Placed
On Huge Capitol
Painting

Visitors to the Capitol today
were given a demonstration Of
one of the most delicate opera
tions the artist is called upon
to perform.
One of the huge paintings in
the rotunda of the Capitol was
removed from its frame and Il
new canvas applied. The old
canvas had rotted away so that
the picture was in danger Of
falling apart.
The new canvas, especially
woven at Brussels, was received
today. A large teamwork was
built on the floor of the rotunda
as a stage on which the work
was placed. The work is in
charge of Charles Mobley, the
artist who cleaned the paintings
last summer. The painting
which is being rebacked is "The

as interest, and this sum Of course
will be proportional to the principal
and will be reduced as the prln-
cipa1 is reduced.
The outward seeming Of the, thing
is as solemn as could be desired.
| Let US proceed, though. for any
one year to add together the sum
paid as interest and the sum PAID
Let us begin with the first year.
In the first year the sum paid
as interest was $1S8,0O0,OOO and
the sum paid on principal was $780,
0OO, 900. Total, $161 900. 900.
How much is that on $4,6OO'OOo'-
900?
It is exactly sh per cent.
Taxpayers Make Up Deficit.
Great Britain's total payments to
us in the first year-for interest
and on principal both-amounted
only to the equivalent Of 3h per
cent interest on the principal.
Meanwhile, to holders of Liberty
bonds tout of the proceeds of which
this principal WAS lent to Great
Britain) our Government was pay
ing AZ per cent.
A pencil and q piece OF paper
viii quickly enable the reader to
zee that Thus. In that first year we
paid 10 holders Of Liberty bonds
S34. 500 900 more than the British
paid us in interest and ON principal
both.
This naturally gave US from the
British no margin whatsoever for
retiring any of those bonds. The
principal of those bonds so Tar as
any help from the British payments
was concerned remained exactly
what it was before, and, additional.
w, in order to meet the interest on
that principal we had to add $34,.
500 900 to what the British paid US.
Can this sort Of transaction be
regarded as any actual collection
from the British Of the principal Of
their debt to us?
The answer would seem to be:
Certainly not.
How IL Works Out.
The realism Of the agreement as
distinguished from the formal book.
keeping OF 1t is that in the first
year of it we collected from the
British less money than enough to
satisfy the interest charges on the
corresponding Liberty bonds and
forgave the British any payment
whatsoever on essential principal
that year.
Let US now take the eleventh
year. In that year the British will
begin to pay 81 per cent interest.
They will also pay GS2 ,000, 600 osten-
sibly on principal.
The two sums added together will
amount to approximately $lS4 .OOO,-
900.
That is exactly 4 per cent on the
original British principal owed to
us of $4,000. 900, 900.

- b international News service.

OTTAWA, Ont, Jan. 9. Twenty
four hours after political leaders IN
the Canadian capital announced
that there was little likelihood Of
any drastic changes being made in
the tariff, the opening shot had
been fired today In 4 new move to
have Canada seek reciprocity with
the United States on lines similar
to those Of 1911.
Political leaders were reluctant to
discuss the situation. but admitted
that storm clouds are forming over
the session Of parliament opening
February 5.
The advocates Of reciprocity
gathered ammunition from the
ultimatum received from Western
Canada, announcing the Saskatche-
wan legislature had given unani-
nous approval to the establishment
OF reciprocity with the United
States The legislature also urged
substantial reductions In the gen.
eral customs tariff to bring down
the cost OF living and an increase
OF the preferential rate given Great
Britain to SO per cent Of the
