be considered.

with the situation in Washington and

Graduates.
R. 0. T. C. Situation Hopeful;
May Obtain Better
Organization.
Two things struck President P. L.
Campbell with particular emphasis on
his just-completed trip to Washington,
I). C., and other eastern cities, he said
Wednesday, in his talk on “Washington
in War Times,” given at the student
assembly. The first was the enormous
resources of the United States as they
nre revealed in a trip across the con
tinent at this time; the other the similar
ity of the national capital to a huge col
lege campus because of the laTge num
ber of young people who are employed
in the various departments there. Most
of these appear to be college graduates,:
he said, and are the same type of men
and women—alert, full of vigor, and
with a pleasant smile and friendly man
ner.
“Washington is,” continued President
Campbell, “a city in which every inter
est in the world, both political and
financial, is represented at the present
time.” lie spoke particularly of the
New Willard and Raleigh hotels, say
ing that the former has probably more
men of world prominence going in and
out its doors each day than any other
in the world.
Is Economic Confer.
“The Raleigh,” he said, “is the eco
nomic center, where the typical men of
business with a capital ‘B’ are to be
found. They are the men there to put
through the great contracts, many of
them running as high as 100,000,(KX),
which have to do with the carrying out
of the government’s war measures. Side
by side with the political and business
powers nre to be found the beauty,
fashion and wit of all countries of the
globe.”
Fuel and weather conditions he found
'to be very bad, and the president told
an amusing story of how the Washing
ton resident is often interrupted by his
neighbor from the British embassy, come
to borrow a scuttle full of coal. Thou
sands of homes are without fuel, and
conditions are serious, President Camp
bell declares.
“The same shortage applies to hotel
accommodations; it is necessary to wire
a week ahead for rooms,” said Presi
dent Caiupbel, “and then upon arrival
one is apt to be told that he can have
a room in a week. The next best thing
to do is to seek the park benches, unless
one is gifted with unusual persuasive
ness, in which ease he may be allowed
the privilege of paying .$5 for the boon
of a cot.”
Sees Soldiers Everywhere.
“There nre soldiars everywhere,” said
the speaker. “They are without a touch
of dissipation, and it makes one proud
of a United States soldier or sailor any
where; it is not only a crime to buy
a drink for a man in the service, but
a crime to drink with him. Uni’ed
States officers’ uniforms are in evidence
everywhere.” President Campbell vis
ited in the course of his trip. Camp
Fuuston, where 40.0(X> troops are sta
tioned.
In Boston he saw P. W. Morton, for
mer dean of the University school of
commerce, who is now on a leave of
absence; at New York he attended a
meeting of tin* National Security chib,
which lias for its purpose plaus for re
nt that time, however, that a war de
war; and an educational meeting in
Chicago.
Attends Education Meet|ng.
The latter meeting was called for the
purpose of discussing the problem of
reorganization of the educational forces
of the country, with a view to having
trained men in reserve in case of a
prolonged war. After some debate on
the best means of accomplishing the de
sired end. the meeting recommended that
a secretary of education be appointed
to give the educational forces of the
country n more prominent place in gov
ernment. The eight larger educational
associations were to form an advisory
council to formulate plans. It was found
at that tiem, however, that a war de
partment council h?nl been appointed
consisting of three war department of
ficers and five civilians, with a large
financial backing.
“They are making of it a long-sighted
proposition.” said President Campbell,
I “and expect a steady supply of trained
men for carrying on the war as a re
sult of the scheme. A bill has been
introduced in the senate by Senator
Owen, of Oklahoma, providing that a
department of education be created, the
head of the department to be a mem
ber of the president’s cabinet.

President Campbell. “America has to
lead in the educational recoustructvon
of the world—it must be either Germany
or America for Russia. The whole re
construction period will demand edu- j
cated men and women. The opportunity
to become lenders in this great work is ,
coming to every college student; it will ;
come to all of you here.”
In regard to the R. O. T. C. authorize- j
tion which is pending, the president said ^
that some definite announcement will ,
be made within a few days. All that is !
necessary to bring the good news is a
wire to Washington, but it is possible j
that some more satisfactory form of;
organization may be found. The splen- j
did work being accomplished on the '
campus under Colonel Leader is recog
nized and was highly eommeuded, he
said.
A talk by Dr. F. Morgan, religious
and educational director of Camp Kear
ney, Cal., in the interests of Bible study
classes, preceded the address, with four
songs by the women's glee club. The
song, “Knit, Knit, Knit,” from “Jack o’
Lantern,” scored especially high with
the crowd which filled Villard.
