REPORT ON VARE DUE DECEMBER 3 Senate Will Pass on Pennsyl- vanian’s Eligibility Three Years After Election. BY FREDERIC WILLIAM WILE. Three years, one month and a day from the time he was elected, on the face of the returns, a United States Senator from Pennsylvania, the Senate will pass upon the eligibility of Willlam 8. Vare to take a seat in that body. On December 3, next, Senator Waterman of Colorado, Republican, chairman of the subcommittee of the committee on privileges and elections, will submit a Teport on the contest filed by Mr. Vare's Democratic senatorial opponent, former Secretary of Labor William B. Wilson Presumably the report will declare that Vare was “duly elected,” and the majority of the committee will corre- spondingly recommend his admission to the Senate. Prospectively, also, there will be a minority report, urging Vare's rejection on the ground both of jrregu- larities in the “gold dust” Pennsylvania primary of 1926 and of frauds in the ensuing State-wide election. Two Courses Are Open. Two courses of action will then be open to the Senate. One course will be to adopt the majority report, declaring Vare admissible and entitled to takc the oath of office, or to pass the minor- ity report pronouncing him inadmissi- ble. It would juire only a majority of the Senate to defeat the vote to ad- mit Vare and administer the oath to him. Therefore, it is expected, the Democrats and Republican Progressives who oppose the Pennsylvanian's entry on any ground will seek to bring the matter to a decision forthwith. The oth- er course is the one espoused by support- ers of Vare, who include for the most part the Republican regulars in the Senate, They will do their utmost to thwart any movement to deny him the oath. If they can once swear him in and give him a seat, a motion to expel on the grounds of fraudulent nomina- tion and election would n a two- thirds vote. On all hands it is doubted whether so large a majority against Vare could be mustered, once he was in the Senate. The Republican Progressives, who will fight Vare’s admission to the last diteh, are captained by Senator Norris of Ne. braska. _ Norris "m"'w"u".'of-. openly against Vare and for in the 1926 Pennsylvania election campaign. It was he who introduced one of the ‘various resolutions to bar and boit the Senate door against the Philadelphian. Borah Also Is Opponent. ‘Borah of Idaho is another senatorial Progressive opposed to letting Vare stay in the Senate, but on constitutional unds, for which the Idahoan is so 'amous a stickler, he thinks the Penn- sylvania Senator-elect, because his cre- dentials are in formally good order, should be sworn and seated. After that Borah has no objection to the Senate's exercising its_right to 1 a seaxd member on the ground it his scat was obtained under irregular conditions. ‘The Vare case involves deep-seated constitutional questions.

Survey Will Collect Data to Be Used by Congressional Committees. ‘The historic little Virgin Islands, basking almost unnoticed in the tropi- cal breeses of the Caribbean, peacefully going about their business of producing sugar and bay rum for American mar- kets, are to be subjected to the most comprehensive reconnaissance since Columbus first set foot on the virgin soll in 1492. Coincident with the departure today of a group of special investigators of the United States Bureau of Efficiency, bound for the small insular possessions, | Herbert D. Brown, director of the bu- reau, revealed for the first time plans to put the islands under the Govern-| ment’s microscope of investigation with & view to improving conditions and making the islanders happler and more All Phases to Be Studled. of the financial, econom- and industrial life of the is- to be studied at first hand by ese Government experts, who will be joined in two weeks by Mr. Brown, who ' will Eve Bureau and Carl R.

Wil- son, Democrat, has lasted three yea It has been a colossal transaction, cause of the fact that, roundly, 3,000, 000 voting papers had to be individu ly scrutinized. They were for the most art votes cast in Philadelphia and ttsburgh, although ballots cast in sevs eral upstate counties aiso were exam- ined. The counting and other contest proceedings were held before the Wat- erman _subcommittee, which includes Senators Moses, New Hampshire, and Steiwer, Oregon, Republicans, and Car- away, “Arkansas, and Bratton, New Mexico, Democrats. In announcing that the subcommittee would report Decem- ber 3, Chairman Waterman said Wil. son’s contest had in all respects been bona fide” one. Wilson's friends say they proved to the hilt that his election was _accomplished “under conditions which smell to heaven.” Former Secretary Wilson, for eight Tears at the head of Woodrow Wilson’s Department of Labor, is now employed as referee jointly by the miners and operators of the Tiinois bituminous field. He is in his sixty-eigrth year, but physically and mental { vigorous.

(/°)—The governor has suspended the independent newspaper Las Noticlas for an indefinite period. The police seized all coples of the paper. It is believed that the suspension is due to the paper’s having prominently printed the an- nouncement that former Premier - chez Guerra had been acquitted of the charge of plotting against the - ::m. munp the government m sessions, of which Senator Bingham of t is dcl'a'?'llemmn. ‘The {N:;y ent an vernor of the mfim himself an rican naval officer, will co-operate in this important indertak u ing. ‘The foundation for the survey already as a resylt of a study by Mr. Brown -and his tants ef the financial, economic, industrial and so- elal conditions of the islands from data fed by sundry Federal encies it concerned with these individual problems. Report to Be Made. A report on the result of the investi- gation will be submitted to the con- essional committees at whose instance t is being made, soon after the Christ- mas holiday recess of the regular ses- sion of Congress, to convene next month. ‘The report, it was indicated, will contain & number of important recommendations, all designed, accord- ing to Mr. Brown, “to help the Virgin Islanders help themselves.” “A great deal of valuable material collected by various agencies in and out of Congress already has been studied.” said Mr. Brown. “Each of these agencles, however, worked on some par- tloular phase of conditions in the islands, " Our aim is to correlate this material, fortify and supplement it with our own investigation. and thus present o Congress & complete and unified pic- ture of thes ituation in the islands, with ns for improvemergs.” natives of the islands are under- stood to be looking forward to the by reau’s investigation to bring about marked improvement in their welfare— s hogc which they have cherished since the United States pald Denmark $25,- 000,000 for the islands in 1917 and as- sumed the role of guardian and pro- tector. The day when the American flag was first raised over old Fort Christian, on the St. Thomas waterfront, the 1sland- ers, it was said, felt that the millennium was close at hand. What happened since, however, is an old story. Islands ‘Are “Neglected.” Pirst there came the World War and the complete immersion of the United mofi in &mbmm in which the islands had little 10 do. Next came prohibition, | the post-war deflation, a lo_:l.g drought and finally & hurricane. e people found they received everything but the millennium they had expected. The things which happened to them between 1917 and 1922—with the exception of rruhlbmon—md happened before. But he sequences on this occasion were swift and harrowing, and they came, moreover, just when their expectation was at its height. Lacking in rare discernment, the na- tives, it was explained, did not under- stand that the United States. was not responsible for the war, for the defla- tion or for the hurricane. ¥et in their plight they blamed Uncle Sam. In the last few years, however, there has been material improvement, the peo- jperous and batterments , public health e have done much to make them more satisfied. But they still have a recolletion of the mil- lennium that falled to arrive and are -ug’ ‘l.nllned to blame the United States ) ‘The Efficiency Bureau's survey in a large measure, it is believed, com- pletely eradicate any misapprehension which may exist, although the main objective is to encourage industry and reduce the expenses of government if possible.

The total population is placed at slightly in excess of 21,000—a sub- stantial reduction since 1835, when the pulation reached its peak of 43,000. g'ohe decline, however, the exodus being to the Umit chiefly. g < : dinctically all Negroes a ve been rule for many yedrs. Even when ‘the United States took possession, the form of government Wwas modified only slightly. The money in ecirculation, oulside of the American currency, is of purely domestic value and is issued by the National Bank of the West Indles, which had been given sole right by the Danish government to establish a cur- rency system in the islands. The bank operates under a grant which expires 35. in 1935. ‘The bureau investigators, it was said, have no intention of recommending any change in the present form of govern- ment, their study of the government be- ing solely tor the purpose of cutting down expenses if that can be done without jeopardizing efficiency and the welfare of tne people. Two Councils Govern Island. At the head of the Virgin Islands gov- ernment is a governor appointed by the President of the United States and re- onsible to him. The legislative body (’3 the islands consists of two councils— ome which governs St. Croix, and the other governing St. Thomas and St. John. The St. Croix council is composed of 18 members, 13 of whom are elected by the people, the remaining five being appointed by the governor. The council for St. Thomas and St. John is smaller, having 15 members, 11 of whom are elected and the other 4 appointed. The overnor hes representation in the coun= cil personally and is authorized to in- troduce legislation. He also has veto power over the legislature, although the President of the United States has final authority on all matters. Since the United States acquired the islands it has been the custom of the President to appoint a naval officer as governor, chiefly because the islands were purchased as a naval base, Sit- uated as they are just east of Porto Rico, an outpost of the Panama Canal, the islands have an important strategic value, both naval and commercial, though the intrinsic value is not re- garded as great as the price paid for them by the United States. ‘The major resources of the islands are sugar, bay oil and bay rum. Cattle raising also is engaged in on a sizable scale, and mainly as a result of th activities of the Department of Agr! culture which has an experimental sta- tion on the islands, vegetables now are being cultivated on an extensive scale for the New York markets.

W. U. Head Says. It is impossible for a university, “no jmatter héw great nor how powerful it may be, to graft a $50,000 education onto a 50 cent boy or girl,” Dr. Cloyd Heck Marvin, president of George. Washington University, said today at Mother’s day exercises at the university, A large number of mothers of girls of the freshman class visited the uni- versity and accompanied their daugh~ ters to their classes. After hearing speeches by Dr. Marvin, Mrs. Jochua | Evans, jr., a member of the board of trustee: nd. Miss Catherine Eckhart, dent, they were taken on an in- spection trip of the institution's points of interest. They also were guests at a buffet luncheon. “Boys and girls are representative of what mothers and fathers are,” Dr. Marvin declared. “The time to raise a child is 20 years before it is born,” he asserted. “The life stream is con- stant, and if your lives are true and faithful, so will your sons' and daugh- ters’ lives be true. We cannot train sons, and daughters apart from mothers and fathers. You are a part of us, of the great scheme of education. The thing that is all important is that you carry |in -your hearts the true idea of the | meaning of edueation.” There are several types of parents, | who come to the university, Dr. Marvin “There is the ambitious parent, the one who somewhat misses the point of education,. This parent says, ‘I want Johnnie to come to the university and learn so that he won't have to work as hard as I have had to werk in life’ To this parent my only answer is that the university is not the place for him. Unless a boy or girl can come here and learn to work harder and to greater soctal purpose than he eould learn else- where during the four years he would spend in college, he has no place here. Coallege is the place where one prepares one'’s self for superior effort. “There is the type of parent who wants to use the university as a stop- ,ap in life, a sort of nui school or sons and daughters pending tha time when they can take their places in the economic and social life of the world. To this parent I say: ‘You do not want a college, you want.a ecountry club. Your son or daughter would have much more fun there and would come out better in the end, for at least he :gll;l,d learn to play golf and tennis “But there is another kind of i who gives me courage.
