‘CHAMBER IN DRIVE ONDIPLOMA MILLS' Commerce Body Urges Leg- islation Aimed at Unnamed Institutions in D. C. . The Washington Chamber of Com- merce at its regular meeting in the Willard Hotel last night called upon Congress for legislation to regulate loeal “‘universiti and priv schools with a view to putting diploma mills out of business. Attention was directed the amber in its resolution o unnamed institutions legal r ed this city which n mas and degrees “entirely misleading in character” and authorizing the practise of some schools of medicine without proper training The resolintion was adopted follow- ing the report of Willlam O. Tufts, chairman of the universities and pri vate schools co tee, on the results of a survey of the educational insti tutions of the Ditrict. “Untold Damage” Alleged. Mr. Tufts found that low-grade “universiti Wl colleges™ are doing untold « to th putable insti- tutions of higher learning here, are bringing American educational stand ards into disrepute abroad. and are underm: z the value of all real de- grees fssued here The report of Mr. Tufts, which was adopted by the chamber, asks for leg. islation drast!c enough to accomplish the following results: Require a reasonable financial back ing or endowment for any college or university authorized to grant de- grees Require adequate library and labo- ratory facilities for such institutfons. Require not less than six full-time professors of appropriate depart. ments before degree-granting power is conferred. Supervisory Board Suggested. Establish an official supervisory board familiar with educational stand ards which will be made responsible for the granting of charters, Give such supervisory body the right to revoke charters for cause. Prohibit granting of degrees ex- cept under such charters and author- ity as provided alove. Mr. Tufts pointed out that the pres- ent corporation laws of the District relating to the establishment of insti- tutions of learning are inadequate to protect the public. He said a bill in- troduced in 1925, shortly after the successful prosecution of Oriental Uni- versity, seemed to cover the require. ment Bill Before Senate Committee. This bill now is in the hands of the Senate committee on education and la- bor. He called attention to the estab- lishment of the “University of the United States” by certain members of the staff of The Evening Star asan ex- ample of what could be done here and Draised the exposure of conditions which followed this action. Dr. Frank W. Ballou, superintendent of schools, said there is great need of regulatory legislation to govern the private school situation here.

The session last night was devoted in large measure to the question of in dustrial development of Washington Mr. Rathbone declared that there is a great and legitimate fleld for ex pansion of the industrial life of this city and that with proper safeguard for the esthetic side of the District’s development, he would lend his sup port whole-heartedly to the move- ment Leaders Back Movement. Addresses advocating the industrial movement aiso were made by Martir A. Leese, Gen Merchants and Manufacturers' Asso- ciation, and Frank P. Leach, repre-| senting the Washington Board of Trade, all of which organizations have joined 1n.the movement. A survey of present commerce and turing here, to be used as the ba of a later advertising appeal Washington, now is under way three trade body representativ pledged their support to continuation of the movement. In his brief but forceful addres: Rathbone, who is a native of Wash-| ington, though now Representativeat | large from Illinois, declared this city | to be admirably situated for develop- ment as a commercial center. He pointed to the possibilities of using air, water, rail and bus transportation facilities available here. | Other Capitals Great Centers. “At the outset,” said Mr. Rathbone, “I realize that you will be told that ‘Washington shouldn't have busine: that it should have a distinctive & mosphere of a capital city. 4 “I never would favor anything that | would in anywise blight,” hinder or| lessen the beauty and the esthetic | nature of our Capital, but consider other great capitals of the world. They are great commercial and busi- ness centers of their countries, and vet their commerce does not detract from their beauty as capital cities. Is London any less a capital beca it 1s teeming with industries that | have made it the largest city in the | world? Is Paris with all its amazing | beauty any less a capital city because | of its commerce? | “Business is the foundation of every city and ithout it it cannot prop- | erly gro Urges “Reasonable Limi Describing the definite character of different cities that developed with types of commercial growth, point- ing to New York as a financial cen- ter, Detroit as the home of automobile manufacturing and Chicago, the pack- ing center, Mr. Rathbone declared Washington, too, has its distinctive atmosphere—that of political life and public service. he said, “but “Let us keep it s0," within reasonable limits, I hope to see this city expand its industrial ac- | tivities. 1f 1 thought for a-minute this would mean that smoking chim-| neys would crowd against our beauti. tul public buildings I would oppose it. But with proper zoning, proper selec- tion of the manufacturing plants to be invited here, there is no need for such fears.” Alr Facilities Held Humiliating. Declaring Washington should have a great airport, Mr. Rathbone con- trasted the present limited airplane service of this country to the great commercial passenger and freight lines of European countries. “It is humiliating,” he said, “to see the United States, that produced the ‘Wright brothers, inventors of the first practical flying machine; to see the Nation that taught the world to fly and that has led the world in demon- stration of the potentialities or the air- ship, in flying first across the Atlantic, over the Pole and around the globe— now to be lagging behind other and smaller nations. “It is time we of the United States wake up and learn What this infant of the air may grow to be. It is time this Nation developed great air lines of transportation, and the place to put the beginning of it is right here in ‘Washington.” Backs State Buildings. Referring to the movement by the Chamber of Commerce for the estab- lishment of 48 State buildings in ‘Washington as exposition buildings and convention halls for State func- tions, the speaker said such a develop- ment would help make Washington the center of the sovereign States of the United States. Digressing for a moment to an- other feature of the development of the Capital, Mr. Rathbone paid a tribute to Capt. Osborn Oldroyd, col- lector of the Lincoln collection which the Government recently acquired, lauding the patriotic spirit of Capt. Oldroyd in refusing an offer of $50,000 for the collection from a private in- dividual, while hoping the Govern- ment would take over and preserve the collection for public use. Mr. Rathbone also discussed his two bills now pending in Congress which call for the purchase of the old Peter- son house on Tenth street, where Lin- coln died, and the old Ford Theater, now used as a warehouse, where the great emancipator was assassinated. Emphasizes Employment Needs. Mr. Leese, following Mr. Rathbone in the discussion of the industrial de- velopment movement, emphasized the need for greater employment oppor- tunities here. With the ever-increas- ing population of Washington on one hand and the policy of economy on the part of the Government on the other, he said, Washington could not depend on Government departments for employment. Illustrating the sit- uation, he said last year there was a red on of 3,000 in the number of Government employes here from the 1925 total. “Washington has a half million population,” he declared, “and we can't all work for the Government; new flelds for employment must be i provided.” PIir, Leese also spoke of the indus- trial exposition to be staged at the Washington Auditorium in March by the Chamber of Commerce, pointing to it as a demonstration of the pres- ent industrial life here, which he said is much greater than most people { imagine. He told of the many print- ing establishments here and urged the possibility of their expansion. Outlines Expansion Survey. Mr. Leach, in speaking for Edwin C. Graham, president of the Washing- ton Board of Trade, outlined the sur- vey which has been started by the local trade assoclations to ascertain the character and proportions of the present industrial activities here and as a guide to the possible future ex- pansion. o city can properly be developed that does not provide adequate em- loyment for its growing population,” gn sald. He pledged s‘mport of th for resident of the chamber: | ephan, president of the | ‘manufac- | ¢ | ruary f Industrial Facili- ties of Nation's Capital. trade body in furthering the move ment Gen. Stephan, speaking briefly for the Merchants and Manufacturers’ Association, suggested the need of an industrial bureau to carry on the in dustrial-expansion movement when the preliminary steps have been taken. He, too, stressed the need of gr employment for Washington residents and of greater income. Refe present commercial growth here, he ald there are now industries in Washington which ship their products to all quarters of the globe. Urges Widening Project. Harry M. Bedell of tho committee on police and fire protection and pub lic safety propo was adopted, calling on the Senate tc | restore items for the widening | Connecticut avenue from M street to Dupont Circle and from Dupont Circle rida avenue, which he declared ry" ‘to greater freedom movement and to reduce ard of automobile accidents. in widening these streets also would push again into the futura the placing of better street lights along the streets named, it was as- serted.

NEWSPAPERS CHIEF ADVERTISING MEDIA Director Ohio Retail Mer- chants’ Council Says Other Forms Supplementary. By the Associated Prees CHICAGO, February 16.—Daily newspapers are and must always con- tinue to be the chief media for retail advertising, in the opinfon of George B. Sheridan, Columbus, Ohio, execu- tive director of the Ohlo State Coun cil of Retail Merchants. This was the view expressed in a paper read today at the fortieth an- nual meeting here of the Inland Daily Press Association. Mr. Sheridan was prevented by illness from attending and his paper was presented by C. E. Dittmer, his associate. “Other forms of advertising are merely supplementary to newspaper adVertising,” said Mr. Sheridan's paper. “Alone they would be inade- quate. Many of them are only tem- porary. The radio is an example of supplementary advertising which may prove to be only temporary. No merchant could trust to the Inac- curaries and inadequacies of a mes- sage presented by the spoken word to carry a major part of his advertising program “Advertising is news, and its proper place is in the newspaper. Intelligent women today study the advertise- ments of department stores and keep tab on the prices in the same way that the stock broker follows the mar- ket news and price fluctuations, and the farmer the conditions in the mar- kets for his produce.” In paper on “Freedom of the by United States Senator Harry B. Hawes of Missouri, Senator Hawes said: “Primitive society recognized three ways in which an injured person might obtaln redress: First, by self- help; second, by the help of his gods and ministers, and third, by the help of the State or political organization. To these I would add a fourth—pub- lelty. Let us hope the press, in using this power, will not be found coldly calcu- lating, too nicely exact, but will per- mit display of charity and sym- pathy with the shortcomings of men, just as does the kind-hearted and charitable individual.” Senator Hawes’ paper was read by ‘Willlam Southern, jr., of Independ- ence, Mo., president of the associa- tion.
