It is the intention of the gov '.
eminent to preserve ire ap oa,'n
ance of the famed English cou"-
trvside as far as possible.
Said Sir Kingsley: Il nave ~ IL,

One reason for the heritage Oh
,,ral cottages for farm workers
is the tendency of industry TO,
ward country DISTRICTS WIN a,i
influx of industrial workers. An
other considerable factors Is tne
taEing of cottages by city people
Sar Weekend use, thus oustlng
former occupants. A.
An interesting sidellght on inc
rural housing situation IS the IN
crcasing disappearance OF big
landed estates. Heavy death
duties are perhaps the most pow
srful influence in this direction,
but also playing a part is the de-
mand for land for cottage nous,
ing estates and a general trend
toward smaller estates.
Most recent example was the
sale by the Duke Of Richmond
and Gordon of 10000 acres in
Morayshire and Banffshire to the
government for S3,75O,0OO.
The largest such sale in recent
wears was when the Duke of
Sutherland disposed of his north
crn estates comprising 1926, 1853
acres, for breaking up into small
holdings.
There is no sign of slackening
in the estate market and real cs-
tate experts foresee no danger Of
fall in the value of land.

Students Urged

Beloit Head Warns Against

BELOlT, Wis, Jan. "a. CUP
A bakery salesman who specialize

probably will sell more pies and
cookies than one who spent his
college days learning the tech
niquc Of pastry selling, believes
Dr.. Irving Maurer, president OF
BelOit college.
"The idea that college educa-
ton should teach one the tricks
of technique is unsound," DR..
Maurcr said. college should give
the student chance to contem-
plate life and acquire a knowl-
edge of ancient languages, his
tory and social science"
DR.. Maurer said he knew a
bakery sales manager, who ma
jored in Sanskrit "and he has
five times as many ideas for SELL
ing pies as his competitors"
WARNS AGAINST
SPECIALIZING
The college student should be
free from outside distractions, Dr..
Maurer said. Instead Of taking
technical courses, such as how to
drive a car, they should Special
ize in the great field of knowl-
edge"
at is impossible to train stu
dents for life in the world" DR.;
Maurer said, because the world
changes too fast. The students
who devote college years to learn
ing to drive an automobile may
find in 10 years all of US are pi-
loting airplanes. Thus their edu-
cation will be useless.
Whereas, if they had learned
history, science and the social
sciences, they would have their
knowledge and understanding"
CALM ATMOSPHERE
FAVORED
College should provide a re-
treat from life, DR.. Maurer said,
where the student can cultivate a
calm, philosophic poise.
"Too many people are learning
how to do things" he explained,
without understanding what they
do. We know how to run machln-

BRlTONS SEEK

RURAL EXODUS
Housing Program Shaped
to Hold Young People
in Country
BY DAN ROGERS
limited Press Staff Correspondent

LONDON, Jan. "a. (UP).-Re-
housing in Britain is changing
the countryside, and is affecting
the movement of population be-
tween country and city.
The rural housing program,
aside from it's social bettermen'
aspect, is designed to keep young
country folk on the farm and TO
check the migration of youth TO
already overcrowded cities.
Speaking of the rural housing
policy of the government, Sit
kingsley Wood, minister OF
health, said the crux of the PROB
lem was the drift of young ,peo-
pie away from the countryside
There are villages in many
parts of the country" he SAID
where there are few young mar
ried couples today. 1t became
clear in the course of inVestlga-
ton that all competent observers
were united in attributing TINS
flight of, the young from the
places in which they were born,
very largely to the lack of good
housing accommodation.
MODERN HOMES DEMANDED
"If we wish our young people
to remain in the country, to en-
rich it by their labor and enter
prise; we must provide them with
housing conditions in which they
can settle down to a happy
healthy and comfortable domestic
life. We must, above all, make
sure we have in our villages q
sufficient supply of houses suit
able for bringing up youno fe'
males in accordance with modern
ideas of hygiene and convent
ence."
The government expects to ac'
complish this end by three means

REFORM MOVE
IS LIKELY FOR
WORLDLEACUE
Waning Power, ltaly's
Withdrawal, World Up
heaval All Factors
BY WALLACE CARROLL
United Press Staff Correspondent

GENEVA, Jan. 24. (UP).-
The League of Nations, with it's
strength cbbing, members slipping
AWAY and the covenant falling m
to disuse, may be expected to
make deliberate effort to mStl-
tute reforms during the year, ac-
cording to opinion here.
The reform movement, which
started in the summer of 1886,
was designed to bring the cOven-
ant into line with existing polite
al conditions. The leagues fail
ure in the Italo- ethiopian war
brought forward plans for some
changes. Little progress was
made to that end in 1887, how
ever.
The committee of 30, which
dealt with the reform problem,
met during the September, 1887,
assembly, Augustin Edwards
fought hard for the cause of re-
form and insisted that nOn-mem-
bers should be consulted regard
ing the kind of league they would
be willing to enter. His efforts,
however, failed to overcome the
inertia of most league members.
The assembly merely authorized
the council to consult non-mem-
bers in regard TO reform when
ever ii thought fit. Nevertheless,
the departure of Italy seemed
likely to stimulate the campaign
TO reform the covenant in 1888.
u. S. COOPERATED
In the past, whenever the
league encountered setbacks in
tn political field, it sought to re-
cover prestige in the non-political
domain, especially in the eco
nomic field. Here it had the CO.
operation of the United States,
Japan and Brazil. But even in
its non-political work it encoun-
tered the hostility of Italy and
Germany in 1887.
When the league launched an
inquiry into the raw material
problem, Germany and Italy, the
nations primarily concerned, re-
fused to participate. Their atti-
tude toward the league induced
Britain and France to entrust to
Premier Paul Van ZeeIand of
Belgium an economic inquiry
which normally would have been
confided to the league.
Despite all its difficulties, how
ever, the league in 1887 did sue
coed in accomplishing much use
full work of a non-political nature.
It continued to look after refu-
gees in Europe and Asia. 1t pur-
sued its campaign against the
drug traffic. 1t fought the traffic
in women and children. It's health
organization conducted anti-epi-
demic work throughout the world,
studied measures to improve the
nutrition of the masses, and
drafted recommendations for bet
ter housing conditions. The COM
municationS and transit Organiza-
ton dealt with such problems as
road traffic signals, pollution of
the sea by oil and a uniform sys-
tenn of maritime buoyage.

Italy will legally remain a men,
Der until December IL, 1889, but
cooperation between Geneva and
Rome apparently has ended.
Several other changes occurred
in league membership during
1887. Paraguay's membership ex-
pired in February. Salvador gave
notice of withdrawal in July.
These losses were partly offset by
the entr yof Egypt in May.

SAYS FISH THINK

LONDON. (UP) - Something
akin to memory and emotion, and
therefore to thought, goes on in
the brains of fish, Prof. J. Gray,
who delivered a lecture on 1.-The
Mentality of Fishes" at Cam
bridge, declared.

continue this year and new at
tempts to alter the covenant by
removing apparently obsolete ar
ticles undoubtedly will be made.
If the British plan for European
reconstruction were to succeed,
the league most likely would be
given a new character conSonant
with the new Europe. If, how
ever, the disunity among great
powers continues, the league
probably will continue to act as a
consultative body. Nevertheless,
as long as Articles 10 and 16 &C
tually remain in the covenant,
the league will constitute a po-
tential alliance which Britain and
France will undoubtedly seek to
put in motion in an emergency.
The leagues only political sue
ces sin 1887 was the settlement of
the Alexandretta dispute which
threatened at the end of 1886 to
cause trouble between France,
Turkey and Syria.
FRANCE STANDS FIRM
With the French inundated ter
ritorieS of Syria and Lebanon be-
coming independent in 1889. Tur-
key wanted Alexandretta, a prov
ince in Syria to attain independ-
ence, too, instead of remaining
part of Syria. AleXandretta con-
tanned a large Turkish population
and the Turkish government did
not want the AleXandretta Turks
to beunder the tutleage of Syrian
Arabs. France replied that the
mandate did not permit her to
dismember Syria by making Alex
andretta independent.
The council finally approved a
settlement which granted Alex
andretta large measure of au-
tonomy in the new Syrian state.
Turkish was to be one of the Of
ficial languages in the province.
The league, which was made
guardian of the province, was
preparing to conduct elections in
Alexandretta as the year closed.
The Alexandretta settlement
probably STAYED off trouble in the
near east but the criticism was
made in Europe that it establish
cd a new Danzig." Turkey and
Syria were also dissatisfied with
it.
HALLE SELASSIE SHREWD
During the summer Italy ncgO-
tiatcd secretly with certain league
powers to obtain the exclusion Of
Ethiopia when the assembly met
in September. That would have
prepared the way for Italy's re-
turn to Geneva and the ultimate
recognition Of the Italian empire
by league members. Emperor
Halle Selassie, however, foiled
purported plot to exclude Ethio-
pia by not sending a delegation to
the assembly. The question of
Ethiopia'S status therefore did
not arise and she remained on the
list of league members.
With it's return to Geneva thus
blocked, Italy announced with
drawal from the league and in

December. Under league rules
