135,000 STUDENTS LISTED IN CAPITAL Col. W. 0. Tufts Declaresl 610 Schools Have Made Rapid Growth. More than 135,000 students pursued educational courses ranging from kin- | dergarten through college in 600 upl-l rate schools in the District of Colum- bia, Col. Willlam O. Tufts, chairman of the Universities, Colleges and Pri- vate Schools Committee of the Wash- ington Chamber of Commerce, asserted in a radio address last night, over Station WMAL here. Growth Not Realized. “The growth of Washington as one of America’s leading educational cen- ter,” Col. Tufts declared, “has come mbout so recently it is not generally realized that our National Capital now possesses some 300 schools, colleges and universities with a total enroliment in excess of 50,000 students. These insti- tutions, mostly private, are in addi- tion to the publlc school system, which takes care of over 76,000 pupils, nor are private denominational schools in- cluded.” Continuing, Col. Tufts said that about 25,000 students are pursuing courses in the higher institutions of learning. Another 25,000, he said, are divided , among proh‘ss}onfll schools, boys and, girls schools, business schools, music | and art schools, religious colleges and other specialized institutions. 76,000 in Public System. “There are 76,000 pupils in our pub- Yic schools and 16 parochial schools re- port about 5500 pupils,” Col Tufts declared. “On this basis it would ap- pear that over 135,000 students of all ages are now enrolled in the educa- tional system of Washington. These students are accommodated in & vast mnumber of school buildings. The pub- lic school system has some 280 school buildings; there are over 30 elementary parochial schools, and the list of uni- wersities, colleges and private schools approximates 300. In other words, there are more than 600 educationai | institutions in Wnshmgwn and its metropolitan area.” . WHITE SLAVERS QUIT URUGUAY FOR EUROPE | _ | Members of Gang Interned on| Island Find Routine Hard and Accept Invitation to Leave. By Cable to The Star. MONTEVIDEO, Uruguay, July 25.— ‘The last of 84 white slavers interned on Flores Island has departed for Europe. ‘They were members of the Zwi Migdal, an international gang operating as a mutual ald society in Argentina, and were deported to Uruguay. They fought Uruguay's efforts to de- rt them, whereupon President Gabriel ‘erra halted court proceedings and sent them to the quarantine station on Flores Island, telling them they could stay there as long as they desired. They found the island cold and inhospitable and objected to arising with the bugle before daylight and eating sailors’ ra- tions. One by one they asked permis- slon to board steamers bound for Eu- Tope. (Copyright, 1931.)
