MAY E BANK'S GOLD. Caillaux Triumphs In Battle Over Financial Policy. BY GERVILLE REACH. By Radio to The Star. PARIS —The cabinet crisis just resolved by the formation of a Briand-Caillaux ministry, was caused by the refusal of the Bank of France—despite its previous prom- ises—to permit use of the $100,000,000 Morgan loan for supporting the franc. Raoul Peret, the former finance min- ister, found himself in a blind alley as a result, and resigned, dragging the whole cabinet down. During the crisis, the .Bank of France pushed forward men on whom it could count—first, Raymond Poincare, a triend of Gov. Robineau; next, Edouard Herriot, whose hands were tied by his bad balance sheets for 1925, and finally Paul Doume: who promised to eliminate the ex perts’ commission. But the Bank of France lost the battle. None of its men could ge: the finance portfolio, and Premier Briand finally rst_enemies, Jo- <eph Caillaux, M. Pietri and M. No- garo, all tavoring free exchange of national notes against bank notes and stabilizing the franc by using metallic veserve if necessary. State Has Appointments. The governor of the Bank of France and his assistants are appoint- ed by the state. If the directorate which is elected by 200 of the bigge: stockholde should resign in protes ugainst dismissal of the present man- agement, the state would designate provistonal successors. Americ be startled by such apparent restrictions of the bank’s in- dependenc ly it will re- main neither more nor less inde- pendent than before. Cone in gold res worth while to mention were acquired. During the war, since forced circu- Jation was decreed on August 5. 1914, Frenchmen were called upon patriot- jeally to exchange their gold against bank notes. A total of $500,000,600 in gold was thus accumulated, and was used to support the exchange market. Indeed, nearly all this gold, which private citizens brougkt volun- tarlly to the bank, was sent to Eng- land as pledges for loans. Bank's Claim on Gold. The bank’s claim on this gold, there- fore, is small and indeed the bank only asks that it be repaid by the state in bank notes at a nominal val- ue, while the state would rean the benefit of the difference between the “ominal and the exchange value. As for tho $800,000,000 in gold and sllver remaining in Paris, this was amassed through the bank's note-s- suing privilege, accorded by the state. Is the state, therefore, warranted in demanding that it be used to de- fend the franc? That is the question which now arises. Chancello: uer Winston to M. Peret try in the world which does not use its gold reserves And, indeed, what is the use of France having reserves more than sufficient to guarantee the franc its present value—a considerabl larger ratio than the Bank of En land's reserves—if it does them? Is it not the secret wis the Bank of France that the nces by almost it with its re- serves intact to become the mistress of France’s finances” It looks so, dging from the bank's policy since the war. Must Aid - Stabilization. In any case, the bank—with new managers—will be summoned to con- tribute to the stabilization of the franc by discount measures appropri- ate to check the exodus of capital and to facilitatc capital's repatriation. The experts commission as well the government will take that posi- tion. It remains to be determined whether such stabilization shall be effected by France's own sources alone, or whether to fall back on foreign cred- its, as the experts probably will rec- ommend. This decision cannot be reached untjl the.svvernmen.rfuke“ it s these rves, how Excheq- Churchill recentl This communique ! ury an unexpended toward pa { property. | 1 Wetmore Report.

As a large part of this area is without any improvement whatever, it would seem. from an economical standpoint, that the Con zress should act promptly and before the value of the land contemplated becomes greatly enhanced in value. “The people of the country have heretofore approved. and will not Senator ofhi for in th the Gove { sibility of ed not i the cha favorably, the expenditure of money upon the surroundings of the Capitol Building, though involving large lines and in sidered plans “The Union Station is t the Nation through unce with weil con- he gatews of which the 1 [ | i | | the N sion of the Capital City o tion.

It now awaits only an agreement by this Plaza Commis- sion on an equitable price—or failing tion proceedings. There s little doubt that the land will be acquired through agreement on price. Following that. the unsightly. so- palled vernment Hotels,” thrown up during war days to house war- workers, will be torn down. This area will be developed as formal gardens and parkway. An avenue 160 feet wide, the same width as Pennsylvania avenue, will be constructed from Union Station to the Peace Monu- ment. “Boulevard of Herd 2. Linked in with this enlarge. | ment and development of the Cay grounds, there has already been thorized, as part of the Arlingion Memorial Bridge project, the straight- ening and widening of B street north- west, which will be run as a broad avenue from the north side of the Capitol to Lincoln Memorial. This is designed to be a ‘Boulevard of Heroes'” along which corteges for the hero dead of the Natlon will pass, over Arlington Memorial Bridge to the Nation's Valhalla on the green hillside across the river. The straightening of B street will leave a park space between Penn- sylvania avenue and B street, to the northwest of Peace Monument, which will add to the attractive setting of the Capitol, matching up with the Mall on the south side of the avenne, a section of which is now occunied by the Natlonal Botanic Garden. It is expected that within the next few days, under suspension of the rules, favorable action will be tak:n on the bill for removal and enlarge- ment of the Botanic Garden. These plans call for a relocation of the gar- den on the south side of Maryland avenue, with a big conservatory erected on land now occupied by a gasoline station, a bakery, a colored church, a stone yard, an old school- house and some ramshackle houses. Early action on this measure is urged 80 that, with the new site determined, preparations may be made for moving the famous Bartholdi Fountain, which is now in the Botanic Garden, out of the Mall and onto the new site, so that work may progress unimpeded upon the Meade Memorial and the general cleaning up of the Mall, to give an unsurpassed vista from the Capitol to Washington Monumen: &nd the Lincoln Memorial.

Departmental Buildings. Sites have also been definitely set for two monumental departmental buildings in the same triangle. A new Department of Just'-~ building is to be erected later on the site of the old Poli Theater nd the Oxford Hotel. facing Dennsylvania avenue. Directly south of the new Justice Building. on land already owned by the Govern ment, facing Fifteenth street and run- ning back to B street, will be erected & new building for the Department of Labor. This site was originally intend ed for the new Commerce Building “Three other large bulldings are to be started this Summer south of B street—two of which will be of monu- mental architecture. These are (@) the new Commerce Department Building fo contain 1,000,000 square feet, net, of work space, with a limit of cost of $10,000,000, to be located between Twelfth and Fourteenth streets, fac- ing the south side of B street, lining up with the new National Museum, and (b) the pavilion building for the Department of Agriculture, connecting the present two marble wings. This is to cost $2,000,000 and contain 90,000 square feet of office space. This will be the headquarters building of the Department of Agriculture. The old red brick building now being used for the purpose will be torn down, greatly improving the appearance of the Mall. Then there will be a new office build ing of brick construction erected for the Department of Agriculture on an extensible plan. Three city squares couth of the present Agriculture Build ings are to be purchased for this new { office building and another to be erect- ed later. For this land and building an authorization of $5,750,000 is carried in the deficiency bill. Tn this same general area the Lib- erty Loan Building, just south of the Bureau of Engraving and Printing, is to have two additional stories erected at a limit cost of $375,000. It will readily be seen that these new buildings will give an impetus to a general improvement of the section of the city south of the Mall. The deficiency appropriation bill also carrles provision for purchasing the Economics Building, now rented by the Department of Commerce, ut C street and Linworth place, at a limit 8t cost of $325,000. The only other Federal building project authorized under the $50,000.- 000 public building program is an ad- dition to the Government Printing Of- fice, directly west of the big print shop, at a limit of cost of $1,250,000.

This is approxi mately only 70 per cent, but high school teachers declare that an addi tional 10 per cent easily will be drawn from a group who are “taking the Summer to think it over” and irom a small percentage who annually de- cide to waft and enter college a vear or two after they h heon rad- uated from the high school. 1 in_the college group are those who will take specialized courses better to fit them for their life work. 1s Going Into Teaching. Teaching school, the statistics show, is the most popular vocation among the girls, with one out of every three of the girls graduating electing to enter normal scheol. The Wilson wal School will recewve 100 from nong the five white high schools, while the Miner Normal School will receive 13% girls from Dunbar and 37 from Armstrong. Central High School, In sending 48 girls to the Wil Norma! School, supplied practi- v half of the 100 entrant Despite the lure of “going a 00l,”" the statistics show ay to that a er education in local universities amid unrivaled surroundings, which destine the National Capital to be the coun- try's educational center. Out of Cen- tral High School's college group 65 will enter George Washington and 28 the University of Maryland, while Dunbar High School will send 36 of her 95 normal school and college eligibles to Howard University. The second most popular vocation among the graduates, according to the officlal recording of their plans, is that of stenography and typewriting. Twent of the 44 girls in the Busi- ness High School graduating class of 74 intend to make thelr livelihood as stenographers, while a dozen at East- ern High School boast the same ambi- tion. But two of the 30 boys at Business intend to seek employment as stenographers, the balance pre ferring to use this knowledge as a stepping stone to success in some other line of work. Have Other Ambitions. Other ambitions which the canvas proved to be entertained by graduates at each of the high schools included the following: Lawyers, doctors, en- gineers, army and naval officers and the Consular Service. One young girl at Central High School is ambitious to become a mo- tion picture star and she proudly re- lated that she already had been en- gaged by a prominent producer.. A — e parkway between Rock Creek and Potomac Parks is a big step in the parkway development plan which will make important changes along the valley in that part of the city. (7) House leaders have pledged themselves to pass the bill, which has already passed the Senate, authoriz- ing the purchase of the Mount Hamil- ton tract at the eastern entrance to Washington as a national arboretum. The authorized appropriation s $300,000. and as soon as the .bill is passed by the House. the appropria- tion will be added to the deficiency bill in the Senate. This means an im- proved entrance to the Capital from the east, besides affording the arbore- tum long sought by the horticultural and floricultural and botanical and forestry associations of the country. This arboretum will have a beautiful park effect. (8) When Congress reassembles in the next session, Representative Charles L. Underhill, Republican, of Massachusetts, will push his bill for authorization to expend $17,000,000 in acquiring all the property the Gov- ernment needs to clean out the un- sightly ramshackle structures along the south side of Pennsylvania avenue and to square up the Mall develop- 1,395 GRADUATES) TO STUDY MORE ormal School. voung Western graduate states he will become a bacteriologist. while a | Business High graduate will not be content unless he is a criminologist It is shown that of all the grad uates, but one was found who will | take up the ministry, a single pro spective banker, a lone architect.

Few Have Jobs. The survey discl that high school graduates, as a rule, do not step right into jobs after they leave school. Including both temporary and permanent positions, but 192 out of 1,395 graduates said they were as- sured of jobs. Scores said they were looking for situations, especially for the Summer. It was shown that at Central but 61 out of 548 had jobs; at Western, 19 out of 176; at Eastern, 44 out of 176; at McKinley Manual Training School, 20 out of 140: at Business, 27 out of 74; at Armstrong. 3 out of 98, and at Dunbar, 18 out of 183. In the count of graduates who had definite plans for the future it was found that 342 of the 548 Central graduates had; 92 of the 176 Western graduates; 90 of the 176 Eastern graduates; 80 of the 140 Tech gradu- ates; 64 of the 74 Business graduates: all of the Armstrong and Dunbar graduates. The standing of the high schools in the count on the number of gradu- ates golng to college follows: Central, 352 going to college out of 548; West- ern, 103 out of 176; Eastern, 150 out of 176; McKinley, 120 out of 140; Bus- iness, 16 out of 74; Armstrong, 95 out of 98, and Dunbar, 183 out of 183. 80 Per Cent Go to College. Commenting on The Star's canvass, Assistant_Superintendent of Schools Stephen E. Kramer, in charge of the high schools, last night said that it had found that practically 80 per cent of Washington four-year graduates go on to college. “I belleve I could be safe in saying that 90 per cent of the graduates out- side of Business High School either go to college or take specialized in: struction before they seek positions,” he said. “The high school graduate of today is becoming convinced that ‘he who knows has a job, but he who knows why is his boss,’ and they are anxious to be able to more than hold their own after they buckle down to earn a live- lihood. “Washington is distinctly a college city in that its major population is made up of parents who well know the importance of higher education and are either well able financially to see their children through a univer- sity or perfectity content to make necessary sacrifices toward that end.” —_— Olympic Park Bill Offered.
