Research in Schools
Urged by D. c. Heads

Legislation authorizing the Board
of Education to appoint research
assistants in the District public
schools was urged by the Commis-
sioners yesterday in a letter to
Speaker Bankhead.
The Commissioners explained the
Teachers Salary Act of 1924 does
not provide a salary schedule for
psychologists or research assistants
and that research work now is car
ried on by teachers withdrawn from
classrooms.
The proposed plan, according to
the Commissioners, would not add
to the present cost of operating the
public school system.
The Commissioners submitted a
similar bill to Senator King of Utah,
chairman of the Senate District
Committee, Saturday.

1t is upon the North Sea trawler
fleet that Britain calls for her re-
serves of mine sweepers, the peace
time experience of these hardy fish
ermen and their seaworthy little
craft being precisely adapted to
mine-sweeping operations.
The closing of the port of Lon
don, even temporarily, is, however,
an ominous portent. Through this
port close to one-half of the peo-
pie of England receive their food
and vast proportion of British in
dustry its supply of raw materials.
Even temporary stoppages of this
traffic can have serious results if
often enough repeated.
Reports concerning a new mag
netic mine alleged to be in use by
the Germans seem somewhat doubt
full. Probably this new mine is
merely one which has a more high
ly sensitized firing device. 1t is
hardly probable, as reported in some
imaginative dispatches, that the
Germans have mine that lies on
the bottom of the sea until a ship
passes over it and then jumps up
by magnetic attraction and hits the
bottom of the ship. The greater part
OF the sea bottom is covered with
ooZe and mud, which would seem
to make any such device of little
practical value aside from the tech
nical improbabilities. A develop
ment, however, of the antennae
mine, which can be exploded by
ship striking not necessarily the
mine itself but the long copper
antennae attached to it, might very
we'll increase the effectiveness of
mine warfare.
Supply Important Factor.
The results which the Germans
may hope to obtain from mining
operations depend on the number
OF vessels they have available which
are or can be fitted for mine lay
ing, the number of trained officers
and men to carry out this highly
specialized type of work and above
all on the supply of mines. This
latter is the most important fac
tor. Even the very great resources
of the allies did not make it posi-
ole to divert enough material to
mine construction in the last war
to permit the laying of the northern
barrage until the United States en-
tered the war.
Whether Germanys rather limit
ed resources will hold out under the
strain of intensified mining opera
tlonS or not remains to be seen
The time factor is here, as in so
many other instances in this war,
OF the greatest Importance. Mine
warfare in the North Sea may be-
come a race between the date at
which German material resources
will be exhausted and the date at
which British shipping losses will
rise to an unsupportable level
one thing is increasingly clear
and that is that the Germans are
concentrating their attack on Great
Britain at her most vulnerable point
her sea communications. They
have used very little of their naval
resources in building huge battle
ships. type in which they could
not hope to equal Great Britain,
Instead they are concentrating on
submarines, airplaneS and mines,
with few fast surface raiders for
more distant operations. This is but
another example of the care with
which the lessons of 1914-19l8 have

that until we do 1t is exceedingly
dificult to draw accurate conclu-
sions as to what the future may
hold.
There can, Of course, be no doubt
that the British Navy will make
every effort to deal adequately with
the German mine attack but to do
so will add tremendously to the
drain on its resources. This will be
especially true while the defensive
attitude which has so far controlled

Upon the result of these expert
ments, as weighed and studied by
the German staffs, will depend the
type and nature of their future
operations. They may determine
that it will be better to concentrate
on one type of attack, such as min
ing. making other forms of attack
subsidiary thereto; or they may de-

methods offers the best chance for

1t should, however, be emphasized
