Friendly Acquisition Of

WASHINGTON, May 20. -GP-
Admiral William D. Leahy, COVER.
nor of Puerto Rico, said in an inter-
view today that friendly acquisition
by the United States of Bermuda,
Trinidad, and Jamaica from Great
Britain would bolster North and
South American defense come what
may in Europe"
The admiral, former chief Of naval
operations, will be president Roose-
velt's luncheon guest at the White
House tomorrow. He has been gov.
ernor of Puerto Rico since the
United States undertook to make the
island a formidable defense outpost
in the Caribbean.
Negotiations for the acquisition Of
the three islands, he said, could
settle Britain's war debt and allow
considerable credit to that country
for additional war supplies If the
present financial strain on the en-
pire should become too severe.

CHICAGO GRAIN

CHICAGO, May % -(R- The
wheat market tried today to extend
its recovery of the week but when
securities prices weakened grain
slumped.
Wheat was up as much as a cent
in the first hour but this was lost
quickly. Thereafter, t e market
was extremely nervous and at
times quotations were as much as
l IL cents below yesterdays close.
Final figures were IL to l 1-8 lower
than yesterday, with July at 80 1-8
to 3-8 and September 80 3-8 to 1-2,
or around 4 cents above the fixed
minimums.
War news continued to dominate
the trade and for a cue as to how
things were going abroad most
grain traders watched the action
Of securities prices. The confused
battle situation tended to keep
many dealers to the sidelines
awaiting developments.
Corn closed 1912 lower, July 81,
September 81 1-8-1-4; Oats 1-4-3-8
off; rye l 1-8-1 IA lower; coy beans
1-8 off to IA up and lard 1920 lower.
The domestic situation in wheat
included reports of spreading black
rust in the domestic southwest but
apparently the crop situation has
been so much over Swallowed by
war that traders are disregarding
it. In fact, wheat prices now are
only about 5 cents higher than a
year ago even though the crop out.

College Station. Raleigh. March
lG-North Carolina farm families
apparently are taking the advice Of
Dr.. I. O. Schaub, director of the
State College Extension Service, lit
orally this year.
For long time. now, Dr.. Schaub
has slipped Into his talks before
farmer groups these words: Grow
something to eat this year" ESpeci-
ally have these words been heard in
the last two or three years when the
major cash crops, cotton and to-
bacco, have seemed to be slipping.
Especially, he was urging bal
anced live-at-home program. which
includes food for the family and
feed for the livestock.
One of the first requirements I'M
der such program is home gard
en-, in which each member Of the
family has at least one-tenth acre
of vegetables.
This year reports from farm
agents Of the Extension Service in
dictate that home gardens will be
more numerous and of wider Va
riety than in many years. Constant
promotion on the part of the agents
apparently has done the trick.
Also contributing to larger gard
en- acreage has been the payment OF
1.50 by the AAA for home gardens.
Any family can earn this payment
by planting at least one-tenth acre
of vegetables for each person, al
though not more than one acre is
required.
To aid in planning and planting
these gardens, the Extension Serv-
ice has issued $4,000 pamphlets
describing approved varieties and
cultivation practices necessary for
earning the AAA payment. In adj
dition, another 5000 copies OF the

New Theories To
Be Demonstrated

Chapel Hill, March 1G.-Elemen-
tary teachers and principals who
will! be enrolled in the University Of
North Carolina summer sessions at
Chapel Hill will have an opportunity
to see in practical operation some Of
the progressive theories of elemen-
tary teachers in a demonstration
school, Dr. Harl r. Douglass, head
of the University Department of Ed
ucation, announced here today.
The instruction in this school,
which will be limited to children Of
ages six through twelve, will not be
a duplication of the conventional
grade school work, he said, but will
demonstrate the application Of the
more modern theories of the teaching
of reading, language, arithmetic,
social studies, nature study, art and
music.
Prof. James E. Tippett, elementary
education specialist, will be in charge
of the demonstration school, He is
a nationally known writer and lee
turer in this field and until last year
was educational consultant to the
famous Parker School in Greenville,
IS. C.
Working with Professor Tippett,
DR.. Douglass said, twill be three
teachers from progressive school
systems which have been outstand-
ing for their successful application
of the more modern elementary
school philosophy and instruction.
They are: Miss Eleanor Kornegay,
'Goldsboro; Mrs. W. L. Harris, Ca
barrus county, and Miss Lucia VIM,
Parker School District, Greenville,
