OL.YMPIA, "Wash., May 22. (Spe
cial ) Ten thousand teachers, school
superintendents and school board
members, as well as school patrons,
will gather at Salt Lake City July
4 to spend six days looking at the
schools of the nation from a national
viewpoint. Ten thousand educators
-will take a retrospective inventory of
the nation's greatest institution, xn
public school, and take part in the
far-reaching programme which has
been prepared by the president for
the National Education association in
Salt Lake City, July 4-10. This meet
ing will bring educators from the
four corners of the nation together.
Mrs. Josephine Corliss Preston,
"Washington state superintendent of
public instruction and president of
the National Kducation - association,
has announced the programme for the
convention. The general heme is,
"Kducation in the Making of a Great
er America." Civic education. Indus
trial education, health PaucatliWa and
the national congress of school boards,
superintendents and classroom teach
ers are the topics f or . four different
days of the convention. Speaking of
the programme, Mrs. Preston says:
Better I ndentlandinff Sought.
"The plan to have school boards,
classroom teachers and superintend
ents together for one day was in
spired by the great need of a better
and broader understanding of the in
herent rights of the children of this
country, the homes of the country
and the community life of the nation.
"The growing unrest of the teach
ers needs earnest consideration. Te
school boards and superintendents of
our country must face this problem
and in conference with classroom
teachers work out a safe and sane
adjustment of public school policies."
Mrs. Preston says that a'large dele
gation of teachers from Washington
will attend the convention. On Sun
day, July 4, the opening day of the
convention, Salt Lake City will give
a musical festival.. On Friday, July

When wee little Buster Har
rison, not yet 3 years old,
reaches man'sstate he can say
that as a child actor his abil
ities were recognized to that ex-,
tent that a stock company in
Tacoma sent to Portland for
his services in "Daddy Long
Legs." Busters mother and
father are Mr. and Mrs. C. M.
Harrison of 444 East Forty
eighth street North. His mother
left with him for Tacoma on
Thursday, so that he could re
hearse with the Tacoma little
boys and girls who are to ap

"Daddy Long Legs" was put

legislature apparently did not take
into consideration that this is a
presidential year. However, conven
tions were necessary to elect dele
gates to the republican and demo
cratic national conventions.
The republican convention was held
in A.pril at Cotter d"Alene. At least
60 of the delegates at that conven
tion have filed their claims with the
state auditor. The total approxi
mates $4000;
The democrats are to hold their
convention next month at Lewiston,
and delegates to that convention will
also file their claims, which will call
for the 'balance of the appropriation.
Delegates to the state nominating
conventions will therefore have to
travel at their own expense, it is the
present opinion of state officials.
Situation la Pecvlfar.
The situation is somewhat peculiar.
The republicans adopted the appor
tionment worked out by the secretary
of state for representation in the
nominating convention. 146 delegates.
The democrats will seat but 106 dele
gates in their state convention. The
representation is based on the number
of votes cast at the last general elec
tion. The republican party cast the
greater number of votes.
The democratic state committee,
however, did not accept the secretary
of state's basis of representation for
it apportioned some 300 delegates
among the various counties to the
convention to be held at Lewiston
June 15. Only 106 of this number
will be entitled to file claims on the
legislative appropriation. State of
ficials .point out that there will not
be enough money anyway for the 300
delegates and it is doubtful if there
will .be enough for 106. Who is to
say which 106 will receive their ex
penses they are unprepared to state.
The claims filed by the repu-bllcan
delegates average about $45 each. If
all the 146 delegates file claims prac
tically the entire apropriation will be
wiped out. i Apparently all are not
going to rile, wmcn will leave some
money to be apportioned among
democrats.
Primary Law Ag-aiit "Wanted.
This situation, coupled with the
criticism heard over the Couer d'Alene
convention, where considerable antl
Borah sentiment' came to the surface,
has brought out an agitaUon for re
instatement of the direct primary
law. It Is likely this will be intensi
fied at the two state conventions, for
those who fail of nomination will not
-be satisfied by the manner in which
thev will be side-tracked.
The last legislature repealed the
direct primary, insofar as it relates
to the nomination of congressional
and state candidates, and Introduced
after a lapse of 12 years the 6tate
convention system which came into
disrepute in 1908 when Burton L.
French, now congressman from the
First Idaho district, was beaten out
of the nomination by Thomas R.
Hamer whose friends managed to
stampede the convention although
two-thirds -of the delegates in that
body were pledged to French and
were in honor-bound to nominate him.
This week leaders in both political
parties were given somewhat of
jolt by an editorial in the Evening
Capital -News, published at Boise, declaring-
that the return of the direct
primary law to the statute books will
be an issue in the state campaign.
