Met. 2132 Discovers New Logic Invents Technic for Training People to Think Dr. Louis W. Rapeer. After 25 years of experi- mental research, President Rapeer of Research University, 1607 I St., has invented a method of training people to think effectively on their in- escapable problems of life. A new book and series of book- lets on the method have been printed at the University Press and are available at the above address or book stores. How to solve well the prob- lems of life is not taught us by homes, schools, colleges, or church They teach facts, minor skills, and attitudes, but fail lamentably to teach the Nation to think reflectively. Now, by home study or in class, adults may learn for the first time how they think, how they should think, and how they can best train children and others to think on real problems. President Rapeer has devel- oped this method in many schools and universities by home study. People outline | their serious problems of life by an 8-step technic and apply three methods devised for judg- ing the soundness of ways di: covered for solving their per- plexities. These are submitted for criticism and advice. While only through the course can one best gain this most val- uable of all abilities and the one most needed by a people in depression, the cloth - bound book (at $2.50) and the series of 5 manila-bound booklets (at 50 cents each) are now avail- able to the public and help to make life more rational and roblems less a nightmare. ‘eachers and parents desiring to use the method for their children are given special help by the University. The volume gives the meth- ogds for solving, also, collective or group problems such as those ing Congress and the Ad- ministration — problems which the Nation is “muddling through” instead of solving well by the rules made neces- sary in the Rapeer discovery. FEOERATONTOAC OND.C.VDTEISIE Resolution Will Be Offered Women’s Convention in Detroit, The General Federation of Women's Clubs will be asked to adopt a reso- lution at its triennial meeting, to be held in Detroit from June 3 to 13, which would empower the federation | to ask Congress to call for a con- stitutional amendment election, giv- ing residents of the District of Co- lumbia the vote, it was announced here yesterday by Mrs. Horace J. Phelps, chairman of the department of legislation of the District Federa- tion of Women's Clubs. District’s Position Cited. The resolution, which was prepared by the local federation, follows: ‘Whereas, 1. The Government of the United States of America is a representative form of government, with its very foundations deeply rooted in the principle that governments derive their just powers from the consent of the governed. 2. The people of the District of Co- lumbia are the only citizens in all the expanse of continental United States who are without representa- tion in the National Government. 3. The half million Americans of | the District of Columbia pay national | taxes, obey national laws, go to war | |in the national defense and are as patriotically interested in the national | welfare as the other citizens of these | United States. 4. There is pending in the Congress {of the United States S. J. Res. 12, | proposing amendment to the Consti- | tution of the United States to give the Congress power to admit to the | status of citizens of a State the resi- dents of the District for the purpose of representation in the Congress and among the electors of President and | Vice President and for the purposes | of suing and being sued in the courts | of the United States. i Indorsements Recalled. | | 5. This proposed amendment does | | not disturb the power of Congress to exercise exclusive legislation in all | cases whatsoever over the seat of Government of the United States, but | empowers Congress to give to the residents of this District the same | voice in their National Government that is granted the citizens of the States. 6. This is a national question and is so recognized by some 35 national and State organizations which have indorsed this proposed amendment. Thersfore, be it resolved, | That the District of Columbia | Federation of Women's Clubs recom- {mends to the General Federation of Women's Clubs that a study be made | of the proposed amendment to the | Constitution of the United States em- | powering the Congress to grant to | the residents of the District of Co- ;lumbln voting representation in the enate and House of Representatives d among the electors of President and Vice President and the same ac- | cess to the courts of the United States as is enjoyed by the citizens of a State. S BILLINGS PAROLE DENIED BY BOARD “Application” He Never Made Came Automatically Before Body Last Night. By the Associated Press. SACRAMENTO, Calif., April 6— The parole which Warren K. Billings | never sought has been denied again. | The “application” of Billings, con- | victed along with Thomas J. Mooney for the 1916 Preparedness day parade | bombing in San Francisco, came auto- matically before the State Beard of Prison Terms and Paroles last night | and was turned down without com- ment. | And the only comment Billings had | to make when asked for a statement | was: | ‘'The application is denied. The in-1 terview is denied.” | Prison officials explained that when | & man has served his minimum term | | his name is listed among the applica- tions for parole, whether he asks for it or not, and the convict is given a form to fill out. Prison board mem- bers said the aging radical labor leader never asked for a parole application. Billings and Mooney, both serving life sentences, have insisted they should | have pardons or nothing. Pardons | have been consistently denied Mooney | by successive Governors of California. R STATUS OF D.
