Clark, chancellor, has been widely congratu- | lated on his recommendation for the | $100,000 structure, which will be the | first’ of four units comprising the eventual dormitory for men. It will be constructed on the south side of the campus, forming the south bound- ary of the large campus quadrangle. Of much interest was the appointment of Harry H. Flemming, attorney, of Kingston, N. Y., to be a member of the board of trustees, as Mr. Flemm:ng is father of Arthur S. Flemming, in- structor of political science at the col- lege, coach of debating. and one of the popular younger members of the facuity.

INDIAN PROBLEM - STUDY CONTINUED Question of Government’s Policy Is Occupying Con- ference Herje. & i The Interior Department is at grips | with the problem invelving th> Indians | | and_the question of the future policy Uncle Sem will pursue in their behalf. | | Experts, who have been in session since last Monday, arranged yesterday to continue their conferences all through ! thas week. Paramount on the pro- | g@m is the question: “Should the pol- | icy of the American Government be to | keep the Indian on the reservations after educating them in the varfous | | schools or provide ways and means for | their assimilation by the white man, so they can become part of ‘the prevailing civilization?’ " The survey of the Indian problem. ! ‘made by the Institute for Government Research, with headquarters at 26 Jack- | son place, and released last May, is be- | ing made the basis for the series of | ! conferences at the Interior ~Depart- | ment. This survey, made at the re-| quest of former Secretary Huben; Work, was submitted by Dr. W. F. Wil- | loughby, director of the institute, late | in February, and the Secretary author- ized the institute to print it in full. | The survey recommended increased appropriations by Congress to make | possible employment of a more compe- | tent personnel and an increased atten- tion to social and economic problems as | -ontrasted with those that are admin- | istrative. The survey pictured the In- dian as being in a desperate plight, with | poverty, low vitality, a high death rate. living conditions conducive to disease and non-adjustment to the dominant white civilization as his lot. Summing up the present condition | of the Indians. the survey report spoke of “their lack of adjustment to the so- | | cial and economic conditions of the pre- vailing civilization which confronts them.” The Interior Department experts are | going through the survey and endeavor- ing to ascertain which suggested im- | provements are practicable under the | present scheme of things and those that i are not. | Particinating in the conference ere | Calvin H.

By Cable to The Star and New York World. preoccupation of all governmecnts con- cerned in reparations is the problem of enlisting an American to join the committee of experts to make final se tlement, it is graduzally becoming clear. A reply to the German suggestion to have independent experts has not been made pending an inquiry relative to sentiments at Washington. Owen D. Young is prominently mentioned as the man to sit on the commiitee. The proposal of Francis Coty, mil- lionaire perfume manufacturer who publishes four newspapers in Paris, that France should ratify the war debt agreements immediately and then enter into negotiations with Germany with two ratifications in hand, with a view to securing the Gorman agreement to pay, is muddling the situation. Gen- erally the policy of Premier Polncare is favored as subtler and as efficient. He has hinted strongly that the Cha ber of Deputies is to put off ratifying the dcbt agreements until he can say that the French debt to England and America is covered by Germany's pay- ments to France.
