No one was able to indicate a suitable landing placc-almost no one on the island had even seen an airplane before. Nearly all the flat ter places in the district are danger ous and unsafe for landing of an air plane as they are strewn with rocks and boulders and pittcd with holes.

education was given by Sec. Wilbur who informed the
annual meeting Of the American council on education
that an adequate position for education Within a de-
partment and with sufficient financial support was
all that was needed" reads a Washington dispatch.
secy. Wilbur is an educator. having made il his
life work and having resigned as president Of STAN
ford university to enter the cabinet. He was very
emphatic speaking Of this proposed federal depart
ment Of education with a cabinet official as its head.
This is what he said;
There Is a distinct place for this sort Of thing

istrative position with large funds at its disposal. A
department Of education similar TO the other depart
ments Of the government is not required"
Fair enough. A federal department controlling the
