G. u, G. w. S&% -
and C. u, per- Harry Costello
haps, are certain constitutional
changes which will be proposed
and acted upon at this annual
meeting.
One of these proposals for con-
stitutional changes, offered by
Clemson College, South Carolina,
would exclude the District of Co.
lumbia from conference territory,
thus paying the way for football
games between Southern Confer
ence elevens and Georgetown,
George Washington and Catholic
University on the basis of respec-
tive institutional requirements.
Clemson, a few years ago, met
G. w. in Griffith Stadium and
wanted to book another game
with G. w. North Carolina State
also wanted to meet G w. in
Washington. However, since Glenn
son and North Carolina State were
told by the conference that they
could not meet G.. w. under re.
spective institutional require.
ments, the second G. w. Clemson
contest was not booked, while the
one with North Carolina, origi-
nally slated to be played last
Thanksgiving Day, was cancelled
by State on the ground that State
could not meet G. WIS scholastic
requirements.
Ban Blacklist"
If and when the change offered
by Clemson becomes part of the
conference constitution, the So
called "blacklist' of the confer.
ence, insofar as it affects the three
District Golleges, all of whom are
now on that list, will be elimi.
mated.
Another constitutional change,
proposed V. P. l., would increase
membership of the conference
from 10 to 16.
The present member institutions
are Maryland, University of Vir-
ginia, V. M. l., V. P. l., Washing.
ton and Lee, University of North
Carolina, North Carolina State,
Duke, University of South Caro-.
lima and Clemson.
1t is understood that South
Carolina will try to effect the entry
of her sister institutions, Furman
and the Citadel. If successful,
this move would bring the confer.
ence membership to II. It has
been known for some time that
William and Mary wants to enter
the conference. If the Indians
come in, which appears likely, that
would make it 13. Among others
who have been mentioned for
membership are Richmond Uni.
versity, Emory-Henry and Roanoke.
If these three were admitted it
would complete the Is.
So far as is known, none of the
three D. C. colleges desires to enter
the conference.
Transfer Students
Another constitutional change
proposed by Clemson would permit
transfer students who are grad
uates of accredited junior colleges,
normal schools, or other inStitu.
tions not offering standard four.
year course to participate in inter-
collegiate athletic contests imme-
diately upon entry into a confer
ence school. Others not graduated
from accredited junior colleges
may be admitted, under Clemson'S
proposal, as freshman.
This brings the conference
schools more or less on a footing
with G. w., which has this same
rule as proposed by Clemson.
If and when Clemson's terri.
torial rule goes into effect, the
outstanding grievance between
members and certain non-mem-
bers of the conference will be
eliminated. Further, Washington
would Immediately be available to
the conference as another center
of population in which to stage
football games.

 Accordingly, I have begun to confer with some of our neighbors in regard to the use of both silver and gold, prefer ably on a coordinated basis, as a standard of monetary value.

Over Third Of Gold
 Standard Ye ars
 Ye ars of Distress

Supplementing numerous oth- CT overwhelming evidences that the single gold standard has been one of the greatest evils ever inflicted on human ity as a whole, a recent writer points out that of the 60 years of the fixed gold standard 24, ,or more than one-third lof them, were years of extreme econom- ic distress, that business fail ures exceeded those of all oth- CT like periods, and commodity prices fluctuated over a wider range than in any other similar period.
 As during this period, 1873 to 1883, the world has pro- duced three-quarters of all the gold of all times, it was cer- tainly a period in which to test the workings of the fixed gold standard most favorable to that standard.

Alaska Eligible for Public
 Works Road Allotments

During the recent considera- tion of Ehe $460,00O,000 road bill in the House, Alaska Dele gate A. J. Dimond obtained the definite statement that failure to include Alaska specifically in the bill does not preclude the Territory from obtaining grants from the Public Works Administration appropriation which is expected to be made shortly. The statement was made by the spokesman for the committee on roads, during a series of parliamentary moves on the floor, in which the Dele gate offered an amendment which would have added not more than $1O,000,000 to the bin for expenditure in. Alaska, the Canal Zone, the Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico.
 In view of certain appropria- tions provided for the Alaska Road Commission, there was committee objection tlo the amendment, which was with drawn by the Delegate after the indicated assurance was given.
 The effect was to remove possibility of congressional ob- jeotion to further P.W.A. al- lotments for roads in Alaska.
 The Territory is eligible to receive part of the $50,000,- 900 set aside in the bill for roads in national forests and parks. ta

TEXT OF PRESIDENTS
 MESSAGE ON SILVER

The full text Iof President Roosevelt's silver prog r m message follows:
 ''To the Congress of the Unit ed S.ates:
 "On January II, 1884, l recommended to the congress legislation which was promptly enacted under the title, the gold reserve act of 1884 This act vested in the United States government the custody and control of our stocks of gold as a reserve for our paper cur rency and as a medium of sett- ling international balances. It set up stabilization fund for the control of foreign exchange in the interests of our people, and certain amendments were added to facilitate the acquisi- ton of silver.
 "As stated in my message to the congress, this legislation was recommended as a step in improving our financial and monetary system. Its enact ment has laid a foundation on which we are organizing q currency system that will be both sound and adequate. It is a long step forward, but only step.
 "As part of the larger ob- jed,ive, some things have been clear. One is that we should move forward as rapidly as conditions permit in broaden ing the metallic base of our monetary system and in stabil- izing the purchasing and debt paying power of our money on a more equitable level. An other is. that we should not neglect the value of an in- creased use of silver in i'm proving our monetary system. Since 1929 Ehat has been ob- vious.
 Some measures for making a greater use of silver in the public interest are appropriate for independent action by us. On others, international CO., operation should be sought.
 "Of the former class is that cf increasing the proportion of silver in the abundant metal lie reserves back of our paper currency. This policy was in- ltiated by the proclamation of December 21, 1888, bringing our recent domestic production

 first to carry out the agree ment on silver which we sought and secured at the Lon don conference. We have since acquired other silver in the interest of stabilization for foreign exchange and the de- velopment of a broader metal lie base for our currency. We seek to remedy a maladjust- ment of cur currency.
 ''In further aid of this policy, it would be helpful to have legislation broadening the au- khority for the further acquisi- ton and monetary use of silver.
 T, therefore, recommend legislation at the present ses- sion declaring it to be the pol icy of the United States to in- crease the amount of silver in our monetary stocks with the ultimate object of having and maintaining one-fourth of their monetary value in silver and three-fourths in gold.
 "The executive authority should be authorized and di- rected ito make the purchases Of silver necessary to attain this ultimate objective.
 "The authority to purchase present accumulations of sil- yer in this country should be limited to purchases at not in excess of 50 cents per ounce.
 "The executive authority should be enabled, should cir cumstances require, to take over present surpluses of sill yer in this country not required for industrial uses on payment of just compensation and to regulate imports, exports and other dealings in monetary silver.
 "There should be a tax of at least 50 per cent on the profits accruing from dealing in silver.
 "We can proceed with this program of increasing our store of silver for use as a part of the metallic reserves for our paper currency without seriously dis turbing adjustments in world trade. However, because of the great world supply of sill yer and its use in varying forms by the worlds popula- ton, concerted action by al nations, or at least a large group of nations is necessary if a permanent measure oI val ue, including both gold and silver, is eventually to be made a world standard. To arrive at that point, we must seek every possibility for world agreement, although it may turn out that this nation will have to take such independent action on this phase of the mat ter as it's interests require.
