(WASHING TON BUREAU OF THE JOURNAL.) The following statement of his posi tion on the prohibition question Is made by Senator McNary: On every occasion, as a member or the United States senate, I shall sup port and voto for national prohibition. My views ,n the necessity of food control are well known, and I am em ploying every effort that I possess to assist In the speedy enactment Of a drastic food measure. 'It was my intention to support the house food bill, which prohibits the use of foodstuffs for beverage pur poses, until President Wilson made an appeal to congress to make an excep tion In the ense of llaht beverages at the present time.- At the time I was appointed to the office of United States senator, I publicly stated that I would follow the president in every legitimate effort successfully to prose cute the war, to the end that an early and honorable peace may be declared among the warring nations. There fore, in connection with a number of the leading prohibition senators. I believe It becomes my patriotic duty to yield to the president's desire and permit his Judgment to control at this time. This the president thinks is necessary as a present war emergency. and inasmuch as I have supported him in his crisis in the belief that In a centralization of authority resoonsl billty can be located, I think this the proper course for me to pursue. "Should the president's judgment prove faulty, then I shall vote to oro- hibit the use of food products In the manufacture of all beverages. "I hope that this action upon my part will meet with approval, but In any event it is based upon thoughtful consideration of the principles Involved and what I believe to be mv nrMitnt duty to the commander in chief of our army, Mr. Wilson." education, State normal and industrial school for women.

The intention is to select elinilnatlvoly the site ror me rrain elevator and freight terminal authorised by the people at the last election. The commission secure a options on a number of possible sites before the election and witnoui leiung the publio know that the publio might want the properties. This was done to prevent having to pay extortionate prices. Th dock commission will meet again next Monday, with- the Intention of making final selection of the site and of authorizing the engineer to go ahead with the work, as He urgea in his report this morning should be done. . The recommendations of the engi neer concerning the commission's con struction policy were as rouows: The work of design and construc tion, of the elevator to be so-arranged that the rounaation pians oe com pleted at as early a date as practical in order that contract for its construc tion may be let this fall, when river low water conditions are favorable for such construction, for if this is not done, it is more than likely that this work would have to go over until an other year. "In connection with the elevator construction if Its completion is de- ntrid for next year, contract should at once be entered into for the rein- ' forcing steel, to insure delivery. "Regardless of the elevator con struction, that the commission pro ceed as rapidly as possible with the design and construction of the pro posed waterfront facilities, such as pier, slip, open dock, trackage and cargo handling equipment, to such an extent as may be approved by the com- f mission. "While It is not possible to state what the labor and material market and conditions will be this year or next year, It seems to be the general belief that construction cost will not become less during these years. A tentative call was Issued for the meeting of the Pacific Coast Aaaocla tion of Port Authorities, to be held In Portland. September . 4 and 5, If the dates are generally satisfactory. Charles B.

Also Declares Federal Officials Should Supervise, No man should be permitted to teach In a vocational school who has not had special training and practical experi ence in teaching. The educational system of, the Unit ed States should be administered and' supervised, by the national govern ment. These were two outstanding points in an address before the department of by H. Shepherd, associate pro- feasor of Industrial education of the state agricultural college at Corvallls, this afternoon at the First Methodist church. The teacher In a vocational school should have broad education as well as trade skill or technic, said the umcr. manor now sKiiiea a workman may be, he should not be eligible to teach until he has also bad preparation in the trade of teach ing.

"Upon closer ac quaintance, and with clearer vision the two armies will find culture and technic fully compatible.' Mrs. Anna T.. Reed of Seattle dis cussed vocational guidance, and prob lems in connection with organisation and administration. - Her analysis of the various forms of vocational guidance in vogue and the problems of each was based on her three years of research in Seattle and her present year of travel through other cities. The theme of her address, which was delivered this afternoon also, was the relation of vocational guidance to voca tional education as provided for by the Smith-Hughes bill Between Two Tire The serious difficulties of organis ing vocational guidance under school systems can all be traced to one fact the character of public education contrasted with the character of busi ness Ufa Vocational directors are be tween two. fires. The forces of tradition pull on way, the forces "of progress the other. Business men think and act quickly and they expect voca tional directors to do the same.
