Siddons to Teach Subjects—Graduate School Enroliment High. | The National University School of momics and Government plans this ar 10 offer a series of courses in | fundamental cconomic problems, among them being studies of such problems and banking and finance. The course in banking and money will be given by Frederick P. H. Sid- dops, secretary of the American Se- curity and Trust Co., and is designed primarily for students who have not taken the theoretical courses in funda- | mental finances. Last year, Mr. Sid- dons gave a practical course on bank- ing practices and trust company man- agement, which he will follow this year with studies of money and cpedits. The teaching of theoretical and practical banking by an active banker is more or less of a new development in, financial efrcles, as well as in aca- demic training, according to Dean Charles Pergler of the school of eco- . | nomics and government, who is direct- ing the courses. Subject Long Taught. “The teaching of the subject is not new,” Dean Pergler sald yesterday, “as the theoretical side has been the poramount study in schools of this nature throughout the country. It is only new, however, that bankers are beginning to enter the educational fleld to give instruction both in theory and practice.” “It is obvious that there is a great opportunity for those engaged in the SHORT, INTENSIVE BUSINESS COURSES SECRETARIAL STENOGRAPHIC BOOKKEEPING TYPEWRITING CIVIL SERVICE More than 200 high school gradu- ates enrolled.

Mr. Siddons is a graduate of the Washington public schools and West- ern High School and received his bachelor of arts degree at the Uni- versity of Wisconsin in 1920 and his bachelor of laws degree from the National University Law School in 1923. He also has finished courses offered by the Washington Chapter of the American Institute of Banking. During the World War Mr. Siddons was commisgioned as a second lieu- tenant and was graduated from the School of Fire at Fort Silj, Okla. Law Courses Popular. The officials of the law school have expressed gratification because of the interest shown by Washington stu- dents of jurisprudence in the gradu- ate department of the school. The courses offered in Roman law, the evolution of modern civil law and canon law, which will be taught by Judge Lobingier and Dr. Sherman, have not only brought many inquiries but a large number of students have registered for these courses as a ,-—JdIN NOWe—_ ‘W CLASSES FORMING IN ALL LANGUAGES MORNING, AFTERNOON AND EVE- NING, BEND FOR SCHEDULE.
