Co.operation for the Schools.

The plan of the Commissioners tc
have the superintendent Of schools ano

them formally over preparation of the
school estimates for the next budget
1s evidence OF that spirit of co-opera-
ton which must be exercised If the best
snterests of the schools are to be served.
Unless there is special legislation con-
ferring power upon the school authori-
ties to draft and defend their budget
INDEPENDENTLY, the needs Of the schools
must continue to be treated as a part
of the District budget. In the absence
of such legislation the Commissioners

ton of 1882, 900 which Auditor
Donovan recommended be made avail
able for education in the 1881 appro-

classification included the appropriation
for the Public Library system with that
for the school system, the difference
between his estimates and the Board

It is obvious that either the school

Virginia's Democratic Row.

The rift in the Democratic party
&hich was started at the Madison
Square Garden convention back in 1924,
which was widened at Houston last
Sune and which became a veritable
breach in November, still continues.
Bishop James Cannon, ir., ardent dry
Virginia Democrat, who led the fight
Against Alfred e. Smith, the Demo-
cratic nominee for President last year,
las Just issued q call to Virginia Demo-
crzts to remain independent" until
every vestige of the Smith-Raskob
dominance OF the party leadership has
been erased.
Bishop Cannon's pronunciamento is
directed against those leaders of the
Democratic party in Virginia who con-
Sanued to give their support to the
Democratic national ticket last Fall.
He demands that the anti-Smith Demo-
erats nominate for governor and for
other State Offices Democrats who OPP
bose Smith. His recommendations to
his fellow workers who last year made
It possible for Herbert Hoover to carry
Virginia, If they are carried out, prom
ase to split the party wide open in the
elections next Fall. The bishop is urg-
ing that the Roanoke convention of
gnti-Smith Democrats, set for June 10,
nominate one of their own number for
governor. He promises his own hearty
support to such a candidate support
which has by no means proved inef-
eectual in the past.
Should the regular Democratic or
kanization nominate a candidate for
Governor of Virginia. as it doubtless
will, the anti-Srnith Democrats put a
candidate in the field and the Repub-
ficans enter their own man, a "triangu-
lar duel is likely to ensue with all
three shooting at n another. Out of
such a situation almost anything might
happen. Bishop Cannon's plain purpose

Nebraska Passes Most
Drastic Narcotic Law
From the Great Falls Tribune.

From the Great Falls Tribune.
A narcotic law, said to be the most
drastic State statute in America, has
been signed by the Governor of Me-
braska. This follows the very m%eritori-
u legislation recently passed by New
York and California.
Gov. Weaver sent a special message
to the State Legislature, recommending
that the drastic narcotic Measure that
had previously passed the Senate be
resurrected and passed. This was done
to the exclusion of about go measures
that were killed by indefinite postpone
ment. The Governor states hat such
legislation should be enacted by every
State in the Union: that all narcotic
laws should have teeth in order not only
to curtail but destroy the traffic.
The International Narcotic Education
Association heartily Endorses avs such
as those passed by New York. California
and Nebraska. and recently sent for
consideration and possible adoption a
copy of a suggested uniform State mar
cotic law to the Legislature of every
State.
Capt. Richmond P. Hobson, president
of the International Narcotic Educa-
ton Association, states that the power
of law will be applied with increasing
effect, and that their special objective
is the police power Of the States and
the foreign commereezand treaty-mak-
ing power Of the Federal Government.

Kindliness.
To sympathy my heart was stirred
BY n who gave a kindly word.
T listened for most half an hour
And felt the magic Of his pow'r.
When he had gone upon his way,
I figured what I'd have to pay;
He sold me things I've needed long.
Till now the need seemed not so strong
He sold devices that are new.
He sold me some insurance, too.
More genial tones I never heard.
I pay for Just a kindly word.

ASKS BAN ON WAR
BLOCKADE OF FOOD

solely with food supplies on the same
footing as hospital ships" President
Hoover declared. THE time has
come when we should remove
starvation Of women and children
from the weapons of warfare"
The suggestion strikes to the core
of the age-old problem OF the free
dom Of the seas, for 1t would alb
rogate the right of any power to en-
force a sea blockade against the
civilian population Of an enemy ma
ton.
The blockade has been tradition
ally sustained by British foreign
and naval policy since Drake car
ried the Union Jack to domination
of the seas by his victory over the
Spanish armada in 1888.
The President specifically dis
avowed any intention of injecting
the question into the forthcoming
London naval conference. This fol-
lowed a like statement by Prime
Minister Ramsay Macdonald in
London Saturday. However, diplo-
matte observers inclined to the view
today that the Presidents proposal
must lead soon to at least informal
exchanges between the principal
powers on the whole subject Of the
wartime law of the sea.

SUIT IS ATTACK
ON BANK LEASE
Wild Building Contract Is
Alleged Illegal.

Suit attacking legality of the
twenty-year lease of the State Saw
ing and Trust Company on the
first and second floors of the J. F..
Wild bank building was filed today
in circuit court by Edgar M. Bless
ing. j. F. Wild Realty Company re-
ceiver. The action seeks to have the

The Wild Realty Company is sub
sidiary of the Wild bank and was
the financing company in leasing
OF ground and construction of the
Wild tWelve-story building. The
State Savings Company, according
to the lease, was to have the use
OF two floors for twenty years at
sum not mentioned.
The complaint alleged that Low
Their as Wild bank receiver, execu-
tor of the lease, had no authority
to lease a portion of the Wild build
ing, and that Lowther has failed to
pay the Wild Realty Company GER
tain sums involved In the lease man
agement.
