OUTSIDE HELP NOT ABLE Development or Farm Communities Better Handled by Those Who a Are Interested. SPOKANE. Hash., March 31. (Spe cial.) Educators of "Washington, Ore gon, Idaho and Montana tonight par ticipated in the annual banquet of the Inland Km pire Teachers' associa tion, whose 22d annual convention was opened here today. Later they were guests of the Spokane chamber of commerce a& a reception and dance. The afternoon session today was devoted to a dozen sectional meetings at which speakers discussed subjects of particular interest in their par ticular lines. Dr. B. A. Bryan, state commissioner of education of Idaho, and O. M. Plummer, chairman of the board of education at Portland, were speakers before the school board sec tion. The sessions will continue tomor row and Friday, with the annual' elec tion of officers Friday afternoon. In the development of, leaders in agricultural vocational work among the residents of rural and agricultural communities lies the hope for the per manent betterment of living condi tions in those communities, according to W. T. McCall of Boise, Idaho, chair man of the northwest club leaders, who held today the first of their three-days' meeting in conjunction with the convention of the Inland Kmpire State Teachers' association. People Should Lead. "Too much dependence has been placed upon procuring salaried lead ers such as the county agricultural agents," said Mr. McCall. "It is be coming more and more recognized that one of the big objects of the agricultural extension work is to de velop leadership among the people of the communities. "I contend that we should not have to continue to have paid agents in each county. The primary object of the work that we must do is to find and develop people with broad vision to take charge of the work without salary people who realize that the boys and girls are their boys and girls and that the welfare of those boys and girls is the welfare of the community." Expression of the leal object of extension service work was given by Dr. S. B. Nelson, director of extension at Washington State college, as "A higher rural life ideal based on a greater rural prosperity and bringing better returns in its expenditure through a knowledge of the economic and social principles underlying the higher rural life." "The development of leaders in agricultural and rural extension work years ago was impossible because of the lack of ideals." said Dr. Nelson, "and because of the lack of material to develop into leaders. Both of these lacks have been filled by the progress of the extension programme." Rural School Imitators. That the rural schools, on follow ing too closely the courses of study in city schools, have overlooked their possibilities as for rural betterment, was pointed out by Dean E. C. John son of Washington State college. "That the real solution of the prob lems of leadership in the country and in farm life will' be found in organ ized work by all the agricultural in stitutions is not doubted," said Dean Johnson. "The response on the part of the farming people has been so rapid as to surprise not only city dwellers, but the agricultural people themselves." O. M. Plummer, chairman of the board of education of Portland, de clared for a greater spirit of democ racy in the public schools. The question of salaries, tenure and qualifications of teachers was to be discussed under the leadership of F P. Austin, school superintendent of Pendleton.

County Clerk Beveridge Opposed to Plan Because of Poor Work of Deputies. Organized labor's first move in its announced programme of attempting to defeat C. N. McArthur for repre sentative in congress from this dis trict was taken yesterday, when a committee from the Central Labor Council appeared before County Clerk Beveridge and asked that outside reg istration booths be placed in the in dustrial districts of the city as an added inducement to get working men and women to register and ex ercise the right of franchise at the impending primary election. The labor committee stated frankly its purpose was to bring about the defeat of Representative McArthur if possible, and for that purpose they announced everything possible would be done to induce labor union people to register for the primaries. Mr. Beveridge told the committee he was opposed to the plan, but would submit it to the county commission ers. The county board received the petition yesterday morning, but took no decisive action. It probably will be considered at the meeting Friday morning. The commission is under stood to be divided. The labor delegates asked that 20 outside registration booths be placed in various parts of the city within close proximity of industrial plants 1 hey also asked that they be allowed to name the deputies who would have charge of these booths. In opposing the plan. County Clerk Beveridge called .attention to a sim ilar step which was taken during the war as a means of inducing the ship yard workers, who were new resi dents of the city, to register. These booths were established, but proved unsatisfactory. People who registered in the outside booths also registered at the regular office in the court house and the duplication in registra tions and mistakes of inexperienced deputies more than offset the In creased number of voters thus pro cured, said Mr. Beveridge. In view of the pronounced senti ment of Mr. Beveridge against the plan, it is not believed the county commissioners v will authorize the maintenance of these outside bootha the grand chief to organize the order here. The sisters started with a charter membership of 118. of which 68 are women and 50 are men. Twenty-two members from Wauna temple at Hood River arrived here to assist with the installation and organiza tion ceremonials. A banquet was served after the ceremony.
