Officials View

Gravely concerned over the rul-
ing yesterday of Justice Jennings
Bailey of the United States District
Court that school officials may not
exclude children of nearby Mary
land and Virginia whose parents
are employed in the District, school
heads today discussed situation
that threatens to become critical.
Justice Bailey's decision was
made in the case of John S. Kemp,
Works Progress Administration
official, who asked that DR.. Frank
w. Ballou, superintendent Of
schools, be compelled to admit his
11-year-old daughter, Lois, to Cor
don High School. Lois had been
attending school here until her
parents moved to Clarendon, Va,
last summer.
Figures show that 93,781 child
rem are attending the District pub
| lie schools now and that the peak
will not be reached until NoVem-
Der !.
Many Nonresident
Last years maximum, including
turnovers, was 100000 students,
and out of that number 1907 were
non-reSidentS.
Out-of-toWn pupils whose parents
were not employed in the District
paid tuition fees amounting to
$632.02, the actual educational
cost to the District.
The graveSt danger, school au-
thoritieS today agreed, is not what
the new ruling will do to the pres
ent semester, but what it will do
to the February term. They re-
fused even to contemplate what
will happen next September if
Maryland and Virginia residents
working in the District decide to
take advantage of Justice Bailey's
ruling.
Schools in the outlying sections
will get the brunt of the enroll.
ment, officials said. They include
Gordon, Alice Deal, Paul and
Taft Junior High.
These schools are nearest to
Chevy Chase, Takoma Park and
Hyattsville.
Maryla n DIS elementary and
junior high schools include seven
years while the District has eight.
This, an official pointed out,
would influence parents in send.
ing their children to the District
schools, especially if they were
preparing for college.
Practically every junior high
school in Washington is over
crowded. Teachers who should
be instructing classes of 80 or 80
children are handling from 80 to
Al pupils, officials said. In AGA
demic subjects, such as mathe-
mates, English, social studies and
foreign languages the ratio runs
as high as 10.

An Omission In Write-upof
 4th Of July

In reporting the literary pro- gram of the Fourth of July cele- bration, the name of Chas. F. Martin, editor of the North Attle- boro, Mass, Evening Chronicle, who is spending a few weeks in Nome, was overlooked in the writeup following the exercises.
 However, we take this oppor- tunity to say that although MT. Martins talk was an impromptu speech, it nevertheless was very interesting to Nomeites. He told his audience that he was born and raised almost within a stones throw of where the Pill grim fathers landed, and many other famous bits of American history, which happened near his surroundings, and was glad that he had an opportunity of taking part in the celebration at Nome. He also stated that when he left Nome he would endeavor to be of some help in solving our prob lens for more development of Alaska. At the conclusion of his remarks he received the applause of those present.

The following review of J. A. Hellenthal's new book, The AL askan Melodrama," was written by Judge James Wickersham, pic neer student of Alaska history and owner of the largest library in the north on Alaska affairs:
 "A colorful and well written book about Alaska, by an Alas ka author, is not offered to Al aska readers every day,and when such a happy event occurs such a one deserves a fair review.
 John A. Hellenthal-Jack' to all his numerous and intimate friends-is one of the most ac- complished scholars and success full lawyers in Alaska, where he has been prominent in public af- fairs for more than a third of a century. His long residence in the Territory, his wide acquaint- anceship with it's public men and public affairs, it's mining and fish cries and all its varied and val uable national resources, and his wide command of good English and brilliant ideas, marks his book as a real contribution of value to the Territory. It is wide ly descriptive of the scenic beau ty of his homeland, gives the in quiring reader a careful study ot its past historical growth and a hopeful promise of its future de velopment. His wise philosophi- cal criticisms of its legislative structure will encourage and as sist our public officials in the many problems to be met in ere ating a great new American state out of the rough but rich Terri tory of Alaska.

FATALITY OF DISEASES

Ii you were told that you mu,t nave
one of the well recognized diseases and
take your chances on recovery, which
would you choose? According to two
eminent physicians who have studied the
percentage of fatalities from various mala-
dies, your best bet would be to choose hav-
ing measlea.
For they have found that only four
tenths of one per cent of cases of measles
prove fatal. On the other hand, the most
deadly of acute diseases is lockiaw, which
is also one of the most horrible.
Yet lOckjaw is not necessarily fatal
as many may believe. In fact, it is now
adays fatal in only Al per cent of cases,
considerably less than one-nalf
Among the more common diseases,
pneumonia IS the most deadly Still, even
in this most serious malady the mortality
rate is only IL per cent
These figures, we assume, are based
upon the as. umptiOn that no other com
plicatiOnS are present. As a matter OF
practical experience, very great number
of deaths are due not merely to the acute
disease which may be the prepOnderant
factor, but to a combination of causes.

CONFEDERATE CABINET

While the Confederate government
under President jefferson Davis was in
existence only little more than four
years, only one cabiret officer-Stephen
r. Mallory, secretary of the navy-served
throughout the whole period.
During the same time there were
three secretaries of state. Toombs, Hun
ter and Benjamin; three secretaries of the
treasury, Memminger. Trenholm and
Reagin; six secretaries of war, Walker.
Benjamin, Randolph, Smith, Seldom and
Breckenridge; two acknowledgement
Ellet and Reagan, and four attorneys-geE-
eral, Benjamin. Bragg, Watts and Davis.
judah F. Benjamin of Louisiana went
into the cabinet in 1861 as attorney-gen-
eral, was secretary of war for short time
in 1862, and was made secretary of state
later in the same year, serving as such to
the end. John H. Reagan of Texas served
as postmaster-general from 1861 until
1865, when he became the COnfederacy's
last secretary of the treasury.
President Davis, who had been secre-
tary of war of the United States from 1853
to 1857, appears to have had difficulties
with his own secretaries of war, of whom,
as noted above, he had six.

THE NATIONS ARM TO FIGHT

The nations of the world continue to
arm themselves at feverish rate This is
true of each one of the seven leading
powers, including the United States.
Some idea of what is going on can be
secured by comparing armed plane
strength in 1885 with expected strength
by the first OF next year The seven lead
year but will increase this total to p, 400
by next January. Moreover, further gains
are planned for the following years. For
example, in the total given for next year
the United States is credited with 2,2OO
planes, whereas there is talk in Congress
Of providing the Army alone with 1000
over five-year period.
Peace-lOving citizeni OF Key West
might as we'll understand that increasing
armies, navies, and air corps indicates war
ahead. The world situation is dangerous
because of uncertainty regarding the in
tentiOns of several powerful nations The
threat cannot be met by passing resOlu-
tions, organizing peace parades, and stag
ing strike: against war; nor can it be
avoided, i'll our opinion, by the surrender
of national or international rights.
The prospect for peace is not ell
couraging. While majority of the peo-
pie of the world are against war, il may
be taken for granted that natiOnaIistic
feeling will cause them to support their
government in International attitudes, and.
if the test comes in warfare.
The Citizen is convinced the United
States, with its peace-loving people, can
effectively safeguard itself from the world
peril. Whether the nations of the world.
acting i'll concert, are able to cope with the
menace remains to be tested. The League
of Nations, as now operated and without
the support of powerful nations, has not
been successful but its failure does not pre-
clude the :uccess of stronger organiza
ton in the future.

Employment Pickup Coming
By ERNEST MINOR PATTERSON
President, American Academy of Political
and Social Science -.

see if we cannot find ways to use ali
of the machines and tools that can
make life easier and standardS of liv-
ing higher and at. theSame time make
sure that the benefits are better dis
tributed. Millions Of unemployed and
billions spent to care for them are
certainly n! { the best way.
No one yet has an ideal answer
Unemployment exchanges help dis
placed workers find new jobs, but
they are far from adequate and in the
United States have been much abused
Public unemployment assistance has
grown and will certainly be used
more in the future. We may hope that
any serious defects in our present
legislation Will be corrected at an
early date.
While we are deeply and properly
concerned and are feeling our way
toward better methods of prevention
and of relief for the future. we should
not overlook some of the facts about
present trends. II is said that for
number of years and especially dur
ing the depression many industries
have improved their organization and
processes so much that they can now
return to their old level Of produc-
ton. or perhaps a higher one, with
fewer workers than before.
1t does not follow that this means
permanent unemployment. The en-
ployment pickup is distressingly slow
but there is every reason TO believe If
is coming. Some industries will soon
find so great a demand for their out
put that they will need even more
workers than before. New industries
will spring up as they always have in
the past. absorbing hundreds of
thousands. Perhaps most important
of all. Service" occupations viii
grow. using many thousands more.
To those out of work it is discuur-
agingly slow. But il is the way our
economic system works. Every effort
should be tried to make il work bet
ter in the future. but in the mean
time it is a mistake to overlook the
cOrrectives that are already getting
under way. AS business improves en-
ployment will rise. The difficulty IS
with the ups and downs of the bust
ness cycle" and with the slow action
of the forces of recovery.

however. many quite intelligent eSti-
mates OF course they do not agree
but even the most conservative place
the numbers now unemployed at
100000 or 100000. while others go
as high as 100000. The situation is
still very bad and it is not easy TO
be optimistic even when we read
that business is better.
That raises what at first sight seems
to be fiat contradiction. Business is
improving. Net earnings are growing.
larger dividends are being paid to
stockholders. Yet unemployment is
still serious. How can it be explained?
Perhaps a complete explanation is
not possible. Many observers argue
that machines are diSplacing men
and that we shall always have this
huge body Of unemployed workers
and their dependents TO be supported
in some way. either by charity or by
public relief. They call this tech
biological unemployment" Some
people even urge that we should try
to stop the increasing use of ma
chimes. Mahatna Gandhi of India
wants his people to return 10 the

past.

GUS one but IT would be folly to aban-
