The Pending Harbor Bill

Proponents of the pending river and hsrbor bill
reported b. the house COMMITTEES just prior 70 the close
Of the last session, are making a lest strenuous effort
10 secure action during the present session. despite the
announced opposition Of President Coolidge. However.
il is very apparent that administration leaders. who
have no ambition to enter into a controversy with the
president during the closing days Of his ineumbency,
will oppose any action 1t this time.
The announcement Of Speaker Longvorth that farm
relief and tariff will be the only subjects to be taken
up al the special session, the opening date Of which
has tentatively been set at April 10. would indicate that
action a. the special session will depend upon the
ability Of sponsors Of the measure TO attach II TO the
farm relief bill.
Approximately thirty states and two territories,
Hawaii and Alaska, are interested in the river and hsr-
Dor bill. the pending measure carrying appropriations
for several waterway systems as well as harbor i'm
provement. That considerable pressure will be brought
to secure early action 10 apparent, this pressure coming
form states which will receive indirect benefits as well
as those which will be directly benefited.
II Is interesting to note that the midwest senators
and congressman, who a few years ago we're in the
habit Of referring to the river and hsrbor bill as thu
'pork barrel" are among the most earnest advocates Of
prompt action in making the appropriations available.
They realize that agricultural prosperity depends upon
world markets and lower transportation rates. and that
the one avenue through which these can be secured is
in development Of tie country's ports and waterways.
In event the administration leaders remain obdurste
and refuse to submit the river and harbor bill at the
present session, there is no logical reason why Il should
not be passed in connection with farm relief at the
special session. Development Of water transportation
Is fully a. important 70 the agricultural interests Of
the United States as is the tariff, equalization fee or
any form Of farm relief In feet, If adequate trans
portation is provided, practically any form Of farm
relief will accomplish the desired end Of bringing pros
rerity to the agricultural interests.
Leaders Of both majority and minority parties state
frankly that if President Coolidge had not singled out
the river and harbor bill In his annual message to con-
gress and sought to impress upon both houses his idea
Of what constitutes economy, passage Of the measure
would have been secured during the opening days Of
the session. That Mr.. Hoover will not agree with the
Coolidge policy in this respect IS generally believed,
and farm leaders Of both parties express confidence
that he will be willing TO submit the measure as sup
Elementary 70 any farm relief program that may be
decided upon.

~rePugnant to the ideslism which still snimates the
newer f,n Of the electorate.
The board of directors of the General Federation
expressed the feeling rightly:
Unless a woman under consideration for appoint
msnt 20 a position Of Federal trust is rs well fitted or
better fitted for the position than any man TO whom It
might be offered, in justice to all womsnhood we feel
that the appointment should be passed to the person
most efficient for the definite position
A similar feeling was expressed by the women
county leaders Of the New York state republican or
ganization at their annual conference. although these
were the workers who had been active in last falls cam
paign, and might have been expected 70 feel more
keenly than the club women that their efforts deserved
some gesture Of gratitude.
The fact Is that women think very little about po-
litical gratitude. They would vigorously resent the
imratation that they made their political decisions
with any sense OF fsvors 20 come, and they would re
sent equally the suspicion that they would ccurtensnce
an appointment which would put the country in the
hands Of a person Of inferior ability, merely because
that person was q woman-just as they would resent 4
failure to deprive the country OF a weli-qualified per-
sons services. just becaus. of sex %preiudie..

Junior and Senior Colleges

DEVELOPMENT Of junior colleges throughout the
Southwest is responsible for the present tendency to-
ward consolidation or senior colleges, according 70 en-
inent educators who assert that consolidation is an
economic necessity.
The movement toward consolidation il particularly
noticeable in connection with UNCONVENTIONAL institu-
tions. Though no definite announcements have been
made, there Is an undercurrent in the various religious
bodies of the state to dispense with the regional in
situations in favor az the centralized college, an in
stitution which would not compete with the rapidly de-
veloping junior colleges.
Efforts are being made to secure through the me-
dunn Of the present session Of the legislature a more
solid legal basis for the junior colleges Of the state
and also 70 permit better distribution Of the cost Of
operation. But it is apparent that regardless of what
action may he taken hy the legislature. development Of
these institutions. which are now generally recognized
as a necessary adjunct to any complete educational
program for the major cities. will proceed rapidly.
Legislation such as is now sought will accelerate this
development. hut failure 10 secure its passage will in
no way interfere with the steady, consistent growth of
these institutions.
Those senior institutions now planning consclida.
tion are merely preparing for the future. They real
iss that within a few years practically all high school
graduates will be enabled 70 secure the first two years
cf college work either IN their home schools or in adj
toining cities. They also realize that in face Of this
fest Capitalization of senior Institutions eventually will
Be an economic necessity. and that any expansion al
this time, especially Of those divisios or departments
which can be handled in junior colleges, would be folly.
The Texas legislature should take eognizanee 81
this situation in connection with the state educational
institutions. The record or the past three years i
sufficient 10 prove that the present trend is toward
development of junior colleges. and Il should he the
objective 81 Texas legislators to extend all possible
cooperation in that movement.

| call them stsreologists for lack of a better or more
