INDIANA FARM
LEADERS URGE.
END OF STRIFE
Campaign Wounds Healing
as Annual Convention
Approaches.

With the annual convention Of
the Indiana Farm Bureau Fedora
ton only ten days distant, farm
leaders of the state are wondering
how to heal the political wounds in
flicted in the national election.
The bureaus future influence is
periled unless the groups that took
sharp issue on the farm relief argu-
ment iii the election get together, is
the frank admission of farmers Of
Republican and Democratic COM
plexion alike.
Reelection of William H. Settle
as farm bureau president generally
is predicted. Delegates who will
elect the president at the convention
opening here Nov. 26 were named in
county conventions in the. course
of the campaign, when the farm
bureau warmly was espousing
Democratic national platform
pledges for farm relief of the Nc
Nary-Haugen type.
Brown Leads Opposition
Opposed to the farm bureau forces
fighting Hoover'S election we're some
thirty Republican farmers, mostly
bureau members, who rallied to the
G.. o. P. cause as members Of tho
agricultural department of the Re-
publican state committee, headed by
John G.. Brown, as director.
Although the heat of the cam
paign caused a brief exchange OF
criticism between Settle and Browgl,
the latter professed allegiance To
the farm organization and declared
his committee was in no wise fight
ing the bureau, but advocating an
even stronger organization, while
working in Hoover's behalf.
Browns department members and
field men were his guests at q
"jubiliation luncheon" at the Clay
pool Thursday. Discussion Cf the
farm bureau problem made the af~
fair an all-day meeting.
"Indiana's overwhelming support
Of Hoover In the recent election
should prove to the farm bureau
federation that it owes an apology
to the Hoosier farmer" Brown said
Hope for Peace
No definite plan Of action was de-
vised at the session, but it was the
sentiment OF the twenty-five at
tending that every effort should be
made to strengthen and perpetuate
The work of the farm organization,
while insuring that there should be
no repetition of mistakes it made
in the campaign"
Politicians have been keeping an
eye on the situation, wondering
how reconciliation can be effected.
They believe the bureaus manage
ment finds itself in an embarrassing
position, although fully able to re-
tain the reins.
The Republican members who
polted the ranks to support Hoover,
they assert. hold the advantage so
far as political victory carries any
reward, and at the same time find
themselves IN no position to dictate
what the bureaus policy shall be.
Several hundred bureau members,
loyal TO Settle. stormed a recent
directors meeting to voice their in
dorsement of his policies. OCCASION

When Humes discovered the car
was stolen, Sussman said, he turned
it over to the officers.

'MISFIT' MOBS
WITH DIPLOMAS
vEX EDUCATORS
who to Educate and How
Long Problem, College
Deans Agree.
BY FOSTER EATON
United Press Staff Correspondent

ST. LOUIS, Nov. 16. - Probably
the outstanding educational prob
lem of the country is "who and
how long to educate" spokesmen of
five great American universities
said here today
They were the deans of Harvard,
Chicago, California, Virginia and
Toronto universities, attending the
annual convention Of the Associa-
ton of American Universities.
Mass education OF the American
type, they indicated in interviews
with the United Press, is producing
crop of "misflts" who better might
enter business.
Tie solution, they said, lies in
sterner qualifications for advance
ment beyond the sophomore year
in college. Students who enter
"solely for athletics and the life"
should be weeded out at that point.
ut unquestionably is the out
standing problem" said Dean George
H. Chase of Harvard.
"We think, of course. there is
much to be said for the university
aas we know it, but no doubt prac-
tical, technical schools into which
such students could be guided should
be developed"
Dean Gordon j. Laing of Chicago
Graduate School of Arts and Let
ters believes the junior college may
be the solution.
Under such a plan," he said,
"the university proper would con-
sist only of the last two years of
college work. Before that point is
reached a comprehensive test should
be given othat only those students
would survive"
Junior colleges already are maxi
ing themselves felt in this direction,
according to Dean A. o. Leuschner
of the University of California.
