Industry in the Netherlands is largely an exporting one, he pointed out, but it has been severely hit by the lack of buying capacity in many countries which were formerly its customers and by competition from countries in which the exchange is going down. “This difficult situation for the ex- porting trade is still augmented by the obstacles which are put in their way by measures which are taken by ernmental expemsés.

The transport group of the conference was another one to which he pointed as doing ef- fective work. ¢ Solution of the problem of the| world's economic reconstruction has ! not yet been seriously undertaken, he stated, and then reviewed the present political situation in Europe, adding that “to business men such a situa- tion spells unstability and uncer- tainty.” He told how the violent fluc- tuations of the exchanges has had a bad effect on international commerce. “If,” he said, “the internal purchas- | ing power of money in the countries | where the goods are to be sold varie: from day o day, and If there is no stability’ in the relationship to the militaristic country, he pointed out, the heavy taxes on the people. Speaking from the standpoint of a Netherlander in regard to the recon- struction of Europe, he said that the first wish is to have the taxes cut down. May it be, he said, that the cutting down of government ex- penses all over the world would help a great deal toward reconstruction. “With regard to foreign competi- ' he told the convention, “there are two currents in our country, one wishes the government to take meas- ures to restrict ifportation and the other one is opposed to that, being convinced that, showld cven restric- tion of importation foster the sale of prices which only could be obtained for exported products should make impossible amelioration of the gen- eral gonditions of the country. Return to Normal Indicated. Indications of a return to normal con- ditions were pointed out by Francis H. Sisson, vice president of the Guaranty Trust Company of New York. After de- tailing them to the delegates, he said that it may be well to reiterate for the sake of emphasis that this country is ready to proceed gradually toward gen- eral prosperity. However, he added taat this country cannot enjoy prosperity in its full measure “until the situation abroad is vastly more favorable on the whole than it is today. Pointing_out that the economic situ- ation in Europe is improving. he said that considering the colossal disruption of economic conditions in Europe as a result of the war, the progress made there during the 'last three vears is nothing sort of amazing. However, he sald that the economic rehabilitation of Europe can be accelerated. Discussing numerous plans set out to bring this about, he said that they have been largely checked in their develop- ment by the political and credit obsta- cles which lie in tae path of any action on the scale required by the necessities of the situation. Until the world sees that these influences are of a kind to from Representative Free of Califor- nia and the District Congress of Mothers and Parent-Teachers' Asso- clations, the board of education yes- terday afternoon went on record as favoring the 8 o'clock opening in the public schools. The board also modi- fled the course of study in the high schools and adopted several new text books made necessary by this change. The letter from Representative Free protesting the early opening of the schools was directed to Supt. Frank W. Ballou. It declared that the 8 o'clock opening was ‘nothing short HOUR, DESPITE PROTESTS Educators Take Stand on Daylight Saving.

G. Byler, representing the District Congress of Mothers and Parent-Teachers’ Associations, pre- sented to the board a resolution adopted by that organization at its meeting Tuesday., which demanded an immediate return to the 9 o'clock opening of the schools. After the board had adopted a reso- lution presented by Edwin C. Gra- ham favoring the & o'clock opening, which urged the erection of a new school in the Woodley Park section; the Stanton Park Citizens' Associa- tion, asking that the principles of economic law be added to the high school curriculum; the Northeast Washington Citizens' Association, re- questing that vacant property east of the Ludlow School be purchased and used as a playground; the Federation of Citizens’ Associations, which urged that the secret sessions of the board be discontigued; the District Congress of Mothers and Parent-Teacher Asso- ciations, asking that the kindergar- tens be better equipped, and the Chevy Chase Citizens' Association, in- dorsing the Capper teachers’ salary and school reorganization bill which is now before Congress. The Commissioners notified the board that 2,160 square feet of prop- erty adjacent to fhe Armstrong Magual Training School had been purchased, and that a contract had been let for the erection of an eight- room addition to the Bell School. The Commissioners also stated that a parcel of ground adjoining the Webb fichool had been acquired. R S —— HOUSEBOAT IS RAIDED.

Ballou emphasized that it was the duty of the school officials To open the school at an hour that would be most convenient to the largest number of persons. Mr. Graham also supported the early opening. In modifying the course of study in the high schools the board made sev- |eral changes in the requirements for graduation from -the senior institu- tions. These changes make compul- sory following courses of stud English, four years; foreign lan- guage, two years; mathematics. one vear; science, which includes physics, | chemistry or ‘biology. one year: Amer- {ican history, one year; ph which ' includes’ m four years; music. four year: drawing, {wo . years. Compulsory physical training, music and drawing are the subjects added to the high school course of study. Supt. Ballou, in recommending the adoption of the changes in the course of study, declared that there Is a growing onviction that too much attenticn is being given to ancient and medieval his- tory and too little attention to modern European and American_ history. Under a reorganized program of courses of study, the superintendont made it clear that special emphasis will be laid on the study of American his- tory. ing, Budget to Be Planned.
