TEACHERS VOTE FOR CABINET OF EDU TION AMERICA IS ONLY DEMOCRACY WITHOUT MINISTER OF EDUCATION Chicago, Feb. 26.-"Unequal dis- tribution of wealth presents true dem- ocratic education," Dr. George D. Strayer, president of the National Education association, said today in addressing the Department of Super- intendency, with 44 other auxiliary bodies in session. He supported the proposal for a fed- eral department of education with a cabinet secretary at its head. "We are the only nation in the world among those associated with the overthrow of autocracy and for the es- tablishment of democracy, who have not yet a minister of education, he said. Education Needs Equalization "The realization of the promise of democracy will come to pass when we accept the facts that the equalization of educational opportunities can be provided only when the wealth of the nationis put back of the children of the nation. "No equality of educational oppor- tunity existed in this country," he said, and cited the child taught in a home without a fully trained teacher, and a pupil attending the most mod- ern school, finely equipped and with well paid, splendidly educated and professionally trained teachers. WILEY LAW DASHES RUMRUNNERS HOPES When the Supreme court gave out its decision that the Damon law giv- ing right of search and seizure for liquor was unconstitutional, it was also stated that the liquor question was fully covered by the Wiley amend- ment. This statement according to Prose- cutor Jacob F. Fahrner of Washte- naw county gives the authorities the right to arrest rum runners and to confiscate all contraband wet goods. The Wiley act states that liquors comig into Michigan must be labeled with the name of the consignee, the name of the carrier and the name of the sender as well as a complete de- scription of the contents and the use to which it is to be put. The whiskey toters never comply with the law and therefore are carrying the liuor ille- gally. This law may also be construed to cover a case of having the contra- brand in one's possession. With this law Ann Arbor authori- ties are combating the rumrunners through this district. Several have been arrested here under this law since the Damon law was made void and each received a fine. The fines have been reduced from $200 to $25 as Judge Sample believes in playing safe since other cities have not ac- cepted the court's statement as to the Wiley law. Judge Sample believes that the sit- uation will berelieved shortly, in fact he says he pis expectin a new law covering bootlegging hourly. Until then Prosecutor Fahrner says it is his duty to use the Wiley act. PROMISING FUTURE FOR CITY IS PREDICTED BY CITIZENS (Continued from page one) sake of the cause in which they be- lieved. And each story of action and success "over there" was made part of an illustration to show what Amer- ican men can do when they put their heart in the cause for which they are striving. "Cities have souls, atmosphere, and that indefinable something that you always feel, just like human beings. Work to develope that soul, strive for united action, and play the game as a member of a great team," were the rousing words which made the audience applaud to the echo. "The dinner last night accomplish- ed even more than we had hoped for," was the remark of Secretary Roscoe C. Bonisteel at the close of the eve- ning's program. Hopes to he Realized "We have been building the founda- tion for this new organization for years and now our fondest hopes are going to be realized. The needs of Ann Arbor, however small they may be, will be the first and foremost mat- ter that will be considered by our commerce body. Civic improvements, such as water works, sewerage, street paving, road building, and city gov- ernment in general shall be the prime objects of immediate adjustment."
