AID
SEEN FOR
]. PAY

Government employees and
members of Congress inter-
ested in the Government s
personnel problems expect a
more liberal attitude and a
"new deal" all around in per-
sonnel administration from
President Hoover.
The new President, they believe, Is
more interested in the personnel
situation than any President for
many years. As Secretar3, IT Com
merce, they say, Hoover showed
strong desire to increase the pay of
his employees and devoted attention to
improving their morale. in other
ways.
Leadership Expected
One OF the biggest changes ex.
pected from the new administration
Is the display of more leadership in
the matter of personnel legislation
pending before Congress. During the
past administration the President
made no attempt to direct legislation
along these lines except for econo.
my's sake.
President Hoover Is primarily en-
organizer and executive and 1t Is
therefore believed that he will as.
sert himself on these questions and
assume the leadership in reforms
of the classification system.
People who hold this view of
President Hoover and his future at
titude toward Government employees
explain their point as follows:
Details Ignored
When Congress was passing the
welch salary act President Coolidge
did not concern himself with the
details of the proposed salary In
creases outside of demanding that
they be kept within certain financial
bounds.
AS a result. Congress enacted
very unscientific bin which badly
iumbled the classified service OF
the Government. Hoover will never
put himself into such a position,
they say.
Hoover, in such a case az that,
will make definite recommendations
as to which groups of employees
should be raised and how much
their salaries should be increased
He will not be so much concerned
with the total cost of the bill as
he will be to see that proper
raises are given where they arc
deserved and that the balance of
the classified system is not de-
stroyed.

Two Navy blimps-the J-3::

at Boiling Field today as the:

The loss of helium gas involved in

an official statement of what the gas

the collapse of the IA at 1915

In the struggle to- save the
blimps. 700 soldiers. sailors and
marines, summoned from the Ma
rine Barracks, Fort Myer and other
points, put up a dogged fight at the
control cables through the long
hours of the night.
The field was q bog. with the
men working knee-deep in mud.
Sleet Causes Struggle
As the mercury dropped sleet and
snow mixed with the rain and made
the fight with the elements the hard
est that has ever been seen by air
men in this section. Veterans Of the
World War said it was their worst
experience since the days at the
front.
Scores were soaked to the skin and
kept pulling at the ropes until all but
exhausted. AS reinforcements ar
rived the men were relieved in details
of 10 and given chance to get hot
food and dry clothing.
Boiling Field is not equipped with
mooring masts or hangers for
lighter-than-air craft, and the fight
in the open was directed chiefly to
keeping the noses Of the blimps In
the wind, preventing the gale from
catching any Of them with broad
side blast.
Eddies and gusts swung the bal

management of the government, it is obvious that all must be sufficiently educated to under stand the problems confronting the government. Since we have universal adult suffrage, we must have educational oppor- Junity for everyone.
 The second question as to who should control the schools has been debated. Some main tain that education should be private enterprise; others be- ieve that the state alone should control the educational system. There never has been any seri- GUS attempt in the United States

Radio Address Over KOMO By
 William John Cooper

Seattle, Wash, July 19, 1929
 There has been general agree ment among both real philoSO- pherS and all serious thinkers in any period of the worlds history to the effect that education is absolutely essential to civiliza- tion and to what we ordinarily call progress. There has been no such agreement, however, up- o,a two important questions con- ccrned with education. In fact, there has been serious disagree rlent on these issues. First who shall be educated? Second under whose control and di- rection shall the educational system be?
 In Europe, especially in the years prior to the Great War, each nation had it's own peculiar educational policy. In some of the southeastern countries fully half of the people or more were actually illiterate, and the gov e]'nments appeared to be not seriously concerned with this condition. In other European countries the percentage of il- literacy was almost nothing; in fact, they put the United States to shame in this respect. But, in most of these nations where all people were educated, virtu- ally two systems of shools were provided: A small group of people-in all, about ten per cent were trained to be lead CTS in one system. The great majority of the people were trained in another school sys- tenn to be followers. The system If schools in the Kingdom of Prussia, which was based upon this plan, turned out to be one of the most efficient the world has ever known. It was ideally adapted to the form of Govern

ment existing in the German Empire prior to 1918. In this country, we have been proceed ing for many years on the the ory that all persons are entitled to an education. The founders ot the Republic called attention to the fact that general educa- tion was necessary to the suc- cess of a Democracy. Jefferson, author of the Declaration of h. dependence, wrote that any na- tion which expected to be both free and uneducated expected what never had been and never would be. Yet in the face of this principle recognized by our leaders, there are people in the United States to-day who think that too many persons are edu- Cated. The answer to these peo- pie is the voting list. If all people are to participate in the

Instead he filled his lungs with air before the huge
