SUICIDE STATISTICS ; AID EDUCATION BILL Need of Better School Seen, in ‘| Suicide Facts Discloied By Save a Life League ‘Washington, March 16.—(Capital News_ Service) — Friends of the Towner-Sterling bill, now_before congress, which creates a Depart- ment of Education, point to the,re- ‘port of the Save a Life League,' just made public, which shows suicides of more thna 20,000 persons in 1921, as indicative of the failure of modern educational processes. Education which does not fit those who obtain it for living, it is pointed out, is of no value either to the in- dividual or to the state. That 10 editors, 10 well known writers, 40 college students, 51 school teachers, 21 clergymen, 57 judges and law- yers, 7 mayors, 93 bankers and 88 presidents of large business concerns were numbered amdng the 1921 sui- cides is sufficient evidence that there ig a field for national aid in educa- tion which conserves to the state the lives of valuable men by putting.em- phasis upon trud rather than ficti- 'tious educational values. Attention is also drawn to the re- cent move of the American Federa- tion of Labor by which that organi- zation proposes.to help wrokingmen obtain tbe benefits of university training, s a further indication of the widespread demand for more and better educational facilities. Labor spokesmen have characterized the plan as the most far-reaching ever devised for increasing educational facilities to workingmen. But it is not from labor, it is point- ed out at the capitol, but from edu- cational sources that the greatest de- mand for government paricipaion in educaion comes, and not from pri- vate gift, even when in such magnifi- cent sums-as the recent six million . benefaction from the Rockefel%ers to Johng Hopkins, but from public in- terest, that the United States educa- tional system will be brought to a really high state of efficiency. KIWANIANS AND LADIES ENJOY SOCIAL EVENING Bemidji Kiwanians and their la- dies spent a very enjoyable evening| at the second of a series of Ladies’ Nights-held "Wednesday evening. The social time opened with a dinner at the Markham hotel at 7:30. Rev. Wil- liam_Elliott, pastor of St. Bartholo- mew’s Episcopal church, was the prin- cipal speaker and he gave a very fine address. Solos by Mrs. Paul Yaple and Dr. E. R. Two were especially enjoyable as were also a number of Scotch songs sung by little Kenneth Elliott dressed in Scotch costume. Dot Van's orchestra gave a number of well-re- ceived selections during the dinner hour. Following the dinner, an informal dancing party given by the Bemidji lodge of Elks was enjoyed by the Kiwanians and their ladies. ~Alto- gether, a most enjoyable evening was spent, with a large attendance. CANDIDACY. OF LEACH IS BEING DISCOURAGED Efiorl; Are Being Made to Have Hennepin Delegates Drop Leach Idea - News Bureau to Bemidji Daily Pioneer Minneapolis, March 16.—Although the election of delegates Tuesday to the county convention Saturday re- sulted in a majority of persons fa- vorable to the candidacy of Mayor George E. Leach being elected in Hennepin county, efforts are said to be under way, to. influence the Henne- pin delegates to drox the idea of vot- ing for Leach. rguments being used on the delegates include the as<|- gertion that the money to carry on the Leach campaign was supplied by the “wets” as part of a drive to re- Fstore’ the use of light wines and beer. It is an assertion that has not been publicly proved. . Then there is the argument that if Colonel Leach resigng as mayor of Minneapolis a special election must be called and that this would cause added and neediéss expense to the taxpayers and that, therefére, Mayor Leach should be kept where he is. This argument is expected to “stick” with some of the delegates. Complete returns show that the delegates elected are on the Leach ticket by a large majority. F. W.
