60 YEARS OF LEARNING

William Cullen Bryant Kemp died
in New York the other day. If col
lege degrees per Sc could be turned
into money he would have been one
of the richest men alive. DIR. Kemp
spent 60 years in obtaining the
following degrees: A. NJ, NJ. D..
LIN, LIB. Ph.D., c. f.,
Il. f.. Mech. E.. Phar. Chem. and
three degrees of y. s
When a younSst.r an uncle left
him $500 a year las long as he re-
NAMED in school, Kemp remained
in school the remainder of his life
and died at the age of IS with the
well-earned title Of being the per
petual student" of Columbia Univer-
sity. His main worry toward the end
of his remarkable career was that
there might be nothing left for him
to learn. no more degrees to get, and
he would lose his annual stipend un-
der the uncle's will.
The returns for such prodigious
scholastic endeavor is termed
slender" by the New York World.
Yet If learning for its own sake" is
predicated on reason DIR. Kemp was
a glowing example of mental
achievement. inner satisfaction and
ideal living. HIS mental endowments
TO begin with perhaps were average:
but he proved to the world. at least.
what 60 years Of university training
can do for man. IL he attained the
reductio ad absur1um he at least
showed how it could be done.

CENSORING TIL. "TAI.kJEs"

How high decision of the courts
of Pennsylvania stands in the estima-
ton of other states we do not know.
Once upon time. years ago, Penn
sylvania decisions frequently We're
the subjects of ridiculc. Times may
have changed. and today we find
that the Supreme court of that state
has decided that the state board of
censors has the right to censor the
talking portions of a 'talkie" as well
as the film scenes proper.
That this decision. if enforced by
the censors of the state. will create
confusion is scarcely to be doubted.
Dialog in film is continuity. and
to eliminate phrases and sentences is
far more intricate process Il IN
when the films were truly sileH,.
The same difficult problem pre-
sents itself in the case of censorng
film scenes which are accompanied
by canned music hich is part of
the film. In the two chief methods
generally used. one is to have disks
operated in the rear Of the screen.
and the other has a contrivance that
runs along with the film. For censors
to make cuts in film means to
create a break in the music-not al
ways provocative of happy results.
Film interests have been dreading
court decision such as that in
Pennsylvania If generally applied in
states where censQrs exist inter
minable trouble is likely. especially
as no two boards Of censors seem to
agree as to what should or should
not go into a film prcsentatin.
( BE it said in addition that in the
states having such ccnsors he main
object is to proli dc political jobs in
the name Of public welfare. Now, n
the ccnsors would only take their
, duties in conformity with this polifi-
cal ideal and fail 10 work any hard

COWBOYS AND THE PRESIDENT

COWBOYS AND THE PRESIDENT
The President Of the United States
is the only man in the country who
can make the secretary Of state and
other high government omcials cool
their heels on a railroad station
platform while he finishes watching
a western movie thriller set up in n
Pullman car. This happened when
the President arrived from the
South in Union station. Washington.
The picture was not over 50 the
President remained In his seat until
the last cowboy rode home on his
trusty pony. f'..
Which let's all OF Vi understand
that President Coolidge allows no
movie critics to influence his tastes.
He knows what he likes in the flick
erinK drama and cowboys. Indians
and daring rescue or two suit his
taste exactly. II the movie sophisti-
sites demand dra wing room scenes
and subtleties let them have It; the
President takes his movie drama in
the rough.
Perhaps he also reads detective
! stories or mystery tales.

ENGINEERING PROJECTS
UNDER HOOVER

1t is scarcely surprising to learn
that President elect Hoover has
more than practicing economy in
mind after he takes his seat in the
White House on March I. BY profess
sion an engineer. he doubtless be-
lieves there remains much construc-
ton work to be done in this vast
country--inland waterways. flood
control. electric power development.
irrigation and SO on. Although these
will cost millions-if not more than
a billion-of dollars. they ultimate
iy add to the national wealth and
tine nations prosperity. If they are
worth doing. why wait? If this is to
be the Hoover watchword his ad-
ministration is likely to be one Of
vast constructive achievements.
. In addition, there is the st. Law
renee waterway and the Nicaraguan
canal. These probably will appeal to
his engineering mind. There has been
a plethora of talk about the need
for these achievements and much
disagreement as to ways and means
The engineering profession as a
hole believes that dollar spent in
such an improvement ultimately
brings back two; and regardless OF
whether this consistently cventuates.
Mr.. Hoover must share the beliefs
Of his colleagues.
Certain it is that at few times in
the history of the nation have there
been SO many projects" under con-
Esideration. The Boulder Dam plan.
already disposed OF SO far as Con-
gress is concerned and awaiting a
unification Of purpose between the
seven states involved, will be the first
to gain a start. Muscle Shoals must
still be permanently settled, after the
presidential pocket veto. Comes also
the Columbia river project in the
Northwest and the umatillo project
Yin the same region--two which are
receiving the unstinted approval Of
that entire section of the nation. New
| England seems TO be the only diyi-
sion Of the country without pet
project for the government to finish.
II economy means a refusal to
engage in Constructive enterprises"
then MIR. Hoover will have none of
1t. If economy means Constructive
prosperity" regardless Of the initial
OUTLAWS that might be needed. then
Mr.. Hoover will adopt it. Taxpayers
everywhere will join in paying for
the kind Of. construction Mr.. Hoov-
er believes in: and though there may
be grumbling it is undeniabie. in
theory as well as in fact. that what
builds UP one part of the country re-
bounds 10 the prosperity of all
other parts.
