Dr. Meredith took as his subject: Some Contemporary Educational Movements" His development of the subject was characterized by Dr. Frank E. Spaulding of Yale uni vcrsity, who followed Dr. Meredith, as Dr. Meredith's most outstanding discourse on educational matters"
 The speaker opened his lecture by saying that his talk would be rcla- | tive to a certain few enterprises looking toward a better type of edu- cational movements.
 The first he outlined as the stand Lof the federal government OH mat tcrs of education saying that the government, through it's department of the interior, sought to act as d service agency. rather than an ad- ministratiye organization. He de- vcloped this phase of the subject by pointing out that the various acts concerning education, and the nu- merous researches adapted to its needs were for the purpose of uni I y the subject. He further stated that the federal government alone had within short time spent more than 5S million dollars on educational enterprises although it had no na- tional policy on education, but ra- thcr a summation of the 4S policies of the states.
 The entire interest of the govern ment was characterized as a move ment whose sole business was the development of a more intelligent and more entcrprisng citizenry.
 The second great movement for the advancement of education was said by Dr. Meredith to be embodied in the governmental policy of study. ing the secondary educational or post in view congress has appropriated So95, 1000 which is to be used at the rate of $75,000 a year in seeking through research, information or matters pertaining to secondary edu. cation.

OAKLANDRU
SETS RECORD
Fire Chef and "S" Set
High Mark in 1609-mile
Run to Miami

The driving skill Of a fire depart
ment chief and the speed Of an
Oakland Eight recently were COM
bined to decreases the elapsed time
on the 1609-mile road route between
North AdanN, Mass. and Miami, Fla.
to IS hours and IS minutes, an We
rage Of AS miles per hour.
The record time was established
despite careful observance of speed
and traffic laws, a punctured tire,
regular stops for meals and gaso-
line and the fact that the driver
became lost in a tangle Of roads
somewhere north Of Washington"
The fire chief motorist was John
E. Saulneir Of North Adams. He
was accompanied by Nelson s. Nc
Graw and Valmore Monette, also
Of North Adams, who served as re-
lief drivers. That the relief pilots
maintained a smart pace may be
Judged ftom McGraw'S time on one
stretch Of 800 miles which he made
in five hours flat. The Oakland
was on the road during SO hours
OF the tot% elapsed time which in
creases the actual speed to an ave-
rage Of nearly 40 miles per hour.
After visiting friends in and near
Miami, Chit Saulnier and his com
panions practically duplicated their
schedule on the return trip to North
Adams. The total mileage, includ-
ing short trips out Of Miami, was
1925. The car required no service
attention either during or after the
long round trip.

TRAIL BLAzED
In CHEVROLET
Brothers Cover Thousands of
Miles Over Jungles And
Desert Country

After triumphing over fever, ban
dts adverse weather conditions
and having blazed their own trail
over thousands Of miles Of noun
tain, jungle touring desert country
two courageous Argentines, driving
a Chevrolet touring car, arrived IN
New York recently the first
TO pilot an automobile from Bue-
nos Aires to the United States.
Adam Stoessel, SO, and his bro
ther Andrew %, left Buenos Aires
in their Chevrolet April IS, 1928.
Their arrival in this country a few
weeks ago climaxed a two year
battle. covering $4,000 miles, against
terrific odds that had caused the
failure Of every expedition that had
previously attempted the journey.
Enthusiastic welcomes greeted
the daring South American pair
In New York, Washington and De-
trcit. At the formal ending Of
their hazardous trip at the bat
terry In New York, within view Of
the Statue OF Liberty. they were
warmly greeted by the Argentine
Consul General, Alexandra Bollini
and his staff.
Owned 5 Cars
Having previously owned five
Chevrolets at various times. the
selection Of a car was easy. They
picked the open touring model as
the best adapted to the needs.
The holes at the intake Of
the carburetor were en-
larged to make possible more eff
Gent operation in very high alti-
tudes. Extra tanks Of gasoline. oil
and water were taken on. A shovel.
an axe and plenty OF towrope wde
put aboard.
Their following a dinner given
by the Autombile Club OF Buenos
Aires, which sponsored the tour,
they set out on the adventure that
was to add new laurels to the
achievement of the automobile.
Surmounting seemingly uncon-
Querable obstacles that beset them
almost at every turn in South and
Central America, they fought their
way over rocky mountain passes, a
cross arid desert and through jun
gle thicknesses in many never be-
fore traversed by a wheeled vehicle.
Except for an 80 mile stretch be-
tween Carthegena, Colombia and
Colon, Panama, they covered the
entire distance by automobile. The
short boat trip was made necessary
because Of the impenetrable coun-
try between these two places. It Is
said that this territory has never
been traveresed by mar or beast.
No Time Set
In view OF the fact that they
were moved to undertake the trip
partially as a result Of a desire TO
gain information that would be
helpful in the future development
Of the Pan American highway and
partially as a result Of an adven-
turous desire to see the world, they
made no effort to set a time re-
cord.
Although Chevrolet dealers all
the way from BuenoS Aires to Nav
York ~cooperated in providing what
ever service was necessary, The trip
was neither inspired nor sponsored
BY the Chevrolet Motor Company.
The Stoessels started out on their
own initiative with a fairly addi-
tional expenses ny taking motion
pictures and showing them in var
ious cities where by agreement with
the arrangements Of theatres they
divided admission receipts with the
house.

FRENCH FAVOR GOING SLOW.
Opposing United Retaliation Measures
will Take Direct Action.
BY CAMILLE LEMERCIER,

BY Radio to The Star and the Chicago
Daily News Copyright, 1880.
PARIS, France, June 23.-Although
a few other European countries already
have approached the French govern
ment in order to study the possibility
OF common action viS-a-vis the Ameri-
can tariff, France will not favor con-
certed retaliation measures, but first
will try to obtain through normal and
direct negotiations with the American
government alleviation of the allegedly
excessive duties on certain French
goods.
The French ministry of commerce Is
now studying the intricate clauses of
the Hawley-Smoot tariff and is trying
to value possible effects on French ex-
ports to the United States, but being
fully aware Of the vital Importance Of
her imports of American raw materials
like cotton, oil. gasoline and copper
for French industry, the French gov
ernment will handle the whole matter
with the greatest care and in a spirit
OF friendly collaboration with the United
States.
AS soon as the necessary survey is
completed the French government will
transmit to the American Government
a general memorandum fully explain
ing the French point of view and ask
ing for modification of some items on
the new tariff. There is SO far no sug-
gestion in responsible circles of de-
nounctng the most clause
granted by France to the United States
in 1920.
