TEACHER DIPLOMA
STANDARD MAPPED
Approval Expected for Plan to
Require Degrees by Night
Staff in 1910.

The Board of Education's Per-
sonnel Committee yesterday closed a
controversy between partisans of
higher teaching standards for the
District public schools and friends of
night school teachers who lack the
qualifications demanded of the day
school teachers.
The committee voted to require a
college degree of all teachers begin
ming next September, with the proviso
that night school teachers with ex-
perience might be reappointed to their
jobs each year until September. 1910,
when all teachers, either of day or
Of night classes, must show college
diplomas
The committee action will be pre-
sented to the board at its meeting
tomorrow, when approval is expected
to be unanimous.
Teachers who have met the day
school teaching requirements still will
be given preference for the night
school jobs, but Supt of Schools
Ballou made it clear that a certain
proportion of night school teachers
will be chosen from a list of teachers
with experience in night schools and
with v. G. ranking but without
diplomas.
The controversy was opened in
September when an attempt was
made to require all teachers in all
divisions to have college degrees. The
question of what to do about teachers
with experience but without diplomas
caused the requirement to be held in
allegiance.

President Fails
To Receive Word
Congress Is Here
Capitol Drops Practice of
Notifying White House
of Session.
BY the Associated Press.


That solemn ceremony-Co Congress
notifying the President that 1t is In
session-turned out today to be q
piece of national make-believe.
"Since you've asked" said Sergeant
at Arms Kenneth Romney of the
House. you might as we'll know the
facts-they stopped actually sending
word to him long time ago"
Why go through the motions?
oh" said the S. A. A., they have
to. 1t wouldn't be legal without it."
The ceremony is as pompous as
it's ancient Here's the way they did
it yesterday:
While the gallery crowds listened
intently, Vice President Garner ap-
pointed Senator Barkley, Democrat,
of Kentucky, and McNary. Repun-
lican, of Oregon, as the Mercuries of
the Senate.
Over in the House Speaker Bank
head designated Representative Ray
burn, Democrat. of Texas; Smell. Re-
publican, of New York, and Dough-
speed the news to President Roosevelt.
The five legislators walked up the
aisles of their respective Houses, dis
appeared in the cloakrooms The
Senate recessed for lunch, but after
few minutes, Rayburn reappeared in
the House and said:
THE President of the United States
has been advised that the House of
Representatives is in session."
Visitors, startled by the speed,
gasped.
That's all there is to it.
But back to the sergeant at arms.
Don't they even telephone him?"
he was asked.
NO" he replied. little sadly. they
don't even do that any more
Time was when the committee used
to gallop to the White House and back

KING ARRANGES
AIRPORT FARLEY
Commission Members May
Hold Meeting Today to
Chart Course.
By J. A. O'LEARY,

Chairman King of the Senate Dis
trict Committee made a definite move
today to revive Congressional interest
in the local airport problem by ar
ranging for an informal conference
of members of the Airport Commis.
sion, probably this afternoon, to con.
slider the best course for the House
and Senate to follow on the subject
this winter.
The Utah Senator believes the Air
port Commission of which he also
was chairman, expired officially when
1t made its report to the last session,
recommending development of large
air terminal for the National Capital
at Camp Springs in Southern Mary
land, but he feels it would help clarity
the situation if the members get to-
gether unofhcially and exchange views
on developments since Congress ad-
Journed.
The Camp Springs measure passed
the Senate, but did not reach a vote
in the House and is pending there
Both branches passed the May
Copeland bill in August to enlarge the
existing Washington Airport at the
south end of Highway Bridge. but
President Roosevelt vetoed that meas
ure, indicating he favored development
of Gravelly Point.
Regardless of whether it is chosen
eventually as the airport site, Gravelly
Point on the Potomac is being filled
gradually into land area by the
normal dredging program of the Army
engineers. If it should be selected for
the airport, however, the filling in OF
the river area probably would be
pushed more rapidly.
The President said in his veto state
ment that Gravelly Point would be
within 10 minutes of the center of the
city, and could be used by big planes
on probably 80 per cent of the fly
ing days each year.
He also suggested that because of
the Importance of air traffic here the
Government could afford two fields.
In this connection, it was suggested
that the second field could be on
high ground, such as Camp Springs
or some similar location, for use on
days when fog or other weather con-
d!tions made Gravelly Point opera
tions unfavorable.
Senator King offered a suggestion
last night that either the House Dis
trict Committee or the Senate Dis
trict Committee could hold a brief
public hearing to obtain an express
sion of sentiment as between the
Camp Springs bill, still pending in
the House, and the Gravelly Point
proposal. Bills favoring Gravelly
Point have been before Congress for
a number of years, and have had
strong Endorsement from local organ
izations. The Senator said such a
hearing need not go over all of the
detailed technical data gathered at
past hearings, but be confined to what
has developed in the situation in re-
cent months.
Commenting on the suggestion that
two air feds be developed. the SEN
ate District chairman said he would
prefer to seek one at a time.
With regard to other new legisla-
ton in process of being drafted at
the District Building, Chairman King
was informed yesterday by Corpora
tlon Counsel Seal that city officials
want to consult with the Citizens
Committee appointed to study the
District government before submitting
the bills to Congress.
