HFARING ON EDUCATION BILL SEEMS FAVORABLE Whashington, June 6. (Capital News Sesvice.)---The friends of the movement to have created a Depart- ment, with the head a member of machnery of the federal govern- ment, with the head a members of the President’s cabinet, are express- ing satisfaction with: the results of the hearing granted them by the senate ccmmittee on education and labor ‘and the house committee on education, sitting jointly, to consider the propesed Department of Public Welfare. The joint committee courteously gave the friends of the education measure an entire session in which to present reasons why edu- cation ;should not be made a bureau of the proposed department and, therefore, naturally, subordinate in- stead: of primary in importance. In addition to arguments submiit- ted by leaders in the educational world and in other vital activities, telegrams by the score were submit- ted to the joint committee urging that education be made first or not at all. As suggesting the atd.tude of states on the subject, the action taken by Illinc¥s in creating an in- dependent department of education, under the constitution, while welfare | was taken caré of under a statute, was pointed out.

COLOMBIAN TREATY IS _FIRST Reorganization of ‘Government Depart- ments Seems “a’ Certainty—Dilling. bam Immigration Bill, Which Wilson Killed, Probably ‘Will -Pass' Again. By EDWARD B. CLARK. Washington,—Congress once more 1is in session, and it is hard to find a man here who is optimistic enough to set the day of adjournment prior to some happy hour well within the keeping of the autumn months. The legislative program still is in a state of “mix.” Barring the fact that the army and navy supply bills which failed .at the last sessiou must be given consideration, and that an attempt must be made to securé the sanction . by the’ senate of the Colom- bian treaty, no “one yet knu\v“sy defi nitely what matters of legislation will take precedence, in the active consid- eration of the law makers, Some of the ‘things to be done are known, but just when they will be done is unknown,” There will be a re organization, of "the government’ de- partnients, but when this matter will be taken up it is impossible toddy to say. A bill has been introduéed by Senator Medill McCormfck of Tliinols to accomplish the depar{ment Te ization, and it is possible that Cormick ‘measure may prevail, but it will be the basis of the legislation. The. McCormick measure abolishes the Interior depgrtment and creates In its place two new departments of govermmnent, to be known 'a§ the Departinent of Public' Works “and’ the other as the Départment of ‘Public Welfare, If ‘this measure dhill- go through, the Department of Public Works will include all the engineering’ and building services which are now, parts of various departments of gov- ‘omment. The- Department of Public | Welfare will include all welfare agen- cles, like the public health service, war. risk insurance, pensions, vocational training, and the chilrden’s bureau. seems more likely today that l’fi simiy’ ANON SCHINDT BOUGHY: ' FIND ONE QUICKER WHEN Py - ‘ LAR BUTTONS LASY RVGHY- "W - GOING (O SCATYER -TMEM UNDER W' BED AND - BUREAL * SEZ HE “SO\ €AW O0zZEN XX AS A oRe e lajf, “and with Tittle or no ‘changé from. Tt may not generally be known, but the form in which it passed congress at the last session. It is said, how- ever, that some of the Senate leaders now wish to amend the bill to elim- Inate some of the features which marked it when it was foreseen that President Wilson intended to veto it. There will be an attempt to grant free passage through the Panama canal to vessels engaged in’coastwise trade, and in fact to all vessels of the United States merchant marine. Sena- tor Jones of Washington. and. some other members of the senate committee, on ‘commerce insist: that- the: exemp- tion which once ‘was allowed should be put into force again’'by means of new legislation. ’ There are possibilities of protracted debate in 2l of the greater subjects which congress will take up for cone siceration within the next few months; { Soldier Relief a Certainty. Now that President Harding, on the strength of the report of the commission on soldier rellef, has asked congress - to place the- re' habilitation work under one respopsis’ ble executive head, it probably can be taken for granted that some method quickly will be evolved by which ev-; ery needy sick or wounded soldier can be speedily reached, and that the. hardships of the pasc will not be re-! peated. : il On the commission which made its recommendations to = President Har- ding were several former-service men,’ wmong them ‘being Brig. Gen. Charles G. Dawes of Chicage, chairman; Col. F. W. Galbraith, commander of l'}l; American Legion; Col. Thomas . Miller, alien praperty custodian, and Theodore “Roosevelt, assistant secre: tary of the navy. ‘ Everyone of these men saw service in the great war. It was. Genetal Dawes who said so many picturesque« ly strong things'to a committee of " |congress ‘on. the general subject of soldier. relief. . ' Dawes. swore some- what after'the manner of the army in Flanders, and if swearing ever pro- {[duced tesults it was so in this case.

Miller is here in Washington tor day doing the work once done hq A Mitchell ‘Palmer. Miller Was Determined. Prior to the day when the United States entered the war, Colonel Miller attended the Plattsburg training camp. Early in 1917 he was. rgtused admit- tance to the training camp for officers in the great war because of a physical .|defect. Refusing to be down-hearted there ‘are nearly 1,000,000 soldiers of the great American ‘army who never bave asked for the $60 bonus which [congress voted to all discharged sol- dlers. Taking this as a basis, it seems possible: that about the same number of men may not ask for the additional bonus which congress may authorize. = ; Col. B.-W.- Atkinson,- U, 8.

STARS| (By United. Press) Gileneagles, Scotland, June 6.---The| first appearance of the full team of | American professional golfers on a; British golf course, attracted tremen- | dous interest, when the tournament for the “Glasgow Herald's” 1,000 mound pifize cpened here today. The| tournament was open to amateurs | and professionals, but with a dozen Americans and the British “Big Sev- en,” in the fleld, the amateurs were | not expected to stand much chance. It is probuble that before-cohgress |adjourns good roads legislation will be’ |enacted. ~Fhére are two groups of opinfon-in the matter of good roads. The members ofone group insist that federal aid for good roads shall. be- continued by matching federal dollars; against state dollars in equal numbers; in the general plans for improyement. The other group desires a national sys- tem of highways to be constructed and maintained wholly by federal money and authority.
