POWER PLAN 7
VOTED DOWN

DANVILLE, Va, Feb. 28.-Dan-
vile voters have rejected the Fed.
eral Governments offer Of a loan
of 100000 and a free grant Of
30 per cent of that amount for
constructing a hydroelectric plant
at The Pinnacles, in Patrick
county.
Wading through several inches
OF snow and sleet, they registered
their will at the polls, defeating
the proposal by q majority of 1874.
The election climaxed a month
OF vigorous campaigning by fac
tons favoring and opposed to
building the new plant with Pub
lie Works Administration funds.
The Public Works Administration
several months ago approved the
city councils application for the
loan and offered the 80 per cent
grant to be used for the hire Of
local labor.
The new plant would have re-
placed the city-owned electric sta
ton in furnishing power for the
city, and the present plant was to
have been retained as a standby
station.
Government and private engi-
neers had expressed the opinion
that the plant would have enabled
the city to produce it's power at q
fraction of the present cost.

Roosevelt and Congress for their
efforts to abolish child labor and
to safeguard child health, the
5000 members of the Department

tional Education Association to-
day adopted a five point program
for American Education, demand
ing that the control of schools be
completely removed from political
and class influence.
These policies were contained in
the official resolutions of the
body adopted at the annual con-
Tention here. The resolutions
were presented by DR.. E. E. Ober-
hotter who, tomorrow, will be
come the new president Of the de-
partment of superintendent,
comprising city and State public
school officials and college ad-
ministrators from all parts Of the
country.
Program Summarized
The five-point program, desig-
mated as the new American edu-
cational program, is summarized
as follows:
/. An opportunity for every
child to receive educational train
ing in school from early child
hood to the age at which en-
nloyment sis socially desirable"
and for continued adult educa-
tion as social conditions require
2. For every ella SSroom a
competent teacher who shall be
maintained on an economic level
sufficient to render broad pro,
3esSional service.
Would Avoid Politics
3. For every school system a
school board that is independent
of political and class control,
responsive to the will of the
people, with freedom to develop
efficiently, economically, and i'm
partially all policies in support
OF an adequate school program. 7"
4. Adequate revenues from a
properly adjusted tax system,
sufficient to support the school
program without restricting ade-
Quate opportunities for all chill
dren.
5. State support of schools,
supplemented by noncontrol Fed
eral aid sufficient to permit
every district to maintain an &C
ceptable minimum program of
education, yet safeguarding local
initiative and autonomy in every
local district which can function
effectively in the conduct of its
schools.

Back on State Highway No. 2 the

A Good Place to Fish.
Perhaps by this time the tourist
would be interested in fishing. If so,
he's very near one of the most pop

just miles below Rawlings Tavern

the traveller may stay if he elects.
If you have a liking for paddle-wheel
stands, flying horses and such board
walk amusements, you'll find them
there.
But the road continues south and
38 miles below Annapolis the town
of Prince Frederick is reached. There,
in the center of a thriving agricul-
tural region, is a typical Southern
Maryland inland town. There's the
usual court house with its traditional
doorstep barristers. there's the Gus
tomary general store and the ever
present group Of gasoline filling sta
tions. Really, it is an interesting
novelty for the large city dweller
to pass a night at Prince Frederick.
The Evans Hotel with it's gaily- lighted
walkway and its out-of doors statu-
ary, including a life-like colored boy
who beckons you from the roadside,
affords comfortable lodging for as
little as a dollar a night. And the
meals are excellent; you may have
to wait few minutes longer for them,
but they are well cooked.
Middleham Chapel.
Out of Prince Frederick the course
continues on State highway No. 2.
The next point of interest is old Mid
