PEACE AWAR
Emporia, ,Kansas, Jan. 11.-(By A.
P.)-"Judges of the American Peace
Award were charged to select a plan
to help America to cooperate with
the world in maintaining peace," Wil-
liam Allen White, a. member of the
Bokjury, told students at the Kansas
State Teachers college today. "The
object was to learn, not how to keep
America out of the world, but. in the
world and at peace with the world,"
The jury felt cooperation could best
be secured in some relationship to the
present machinery of world coopera-!
tion and favored that sort of plan.
The one numbered 1469 seemed best
to carry oi4 the provisions of the
donor's gift.

CONSIDER FEASABILITY OF a
INTERNATIONAL UNIVERSITY
San Diego, Calif., Jan. 11.-Raphael
Herman, retired manufacturer of De-
troit is the donor of the $25,000,
award for the best world-wide edu-
cational program looking toward the
development of international peace,
which was announced in San Francis-
co- last fall by the World Wide Feder-
ation of Educational Associations.
Mr. Herman's name was made pub-
lic here Thursday by Milton A. McRae,.
publisher.
Resembles lIok Plan
Under the terms of the contest, the
award is to bepaid to the authors or
authors of the best' plan submitted to
a rommittee of 15 judges, both men
and women. Included in this com-
mittee are Mr. McRae and Alfred
Ducking, Detroit attorney. One half,
the award will be paid when the de-j
cision is made; the other half, when
the plan is put into effect.
It is said that Mr. Herman has off-
ered to be one of several who will
donate $1000,000 for a plan which will
bring about actual world peace. One
of the most prominent projects under
discussion for this award is the es-
tablishment of an international uni-
Iversity, where students picked from'
all the countries of the world would
study the fundamental bases of world
brotherhood. A part of the curri-
culum might consist in travel and
supplementary study in various coun-
tries, with later work at the seat of
the university. Several cities have
been mentioned as possible seats for
such a university among them San,
Diego, The Hague, Barcelona and
Brussels.
Dr. Augustus O. Thomas, president
of the World Federation of Educat-
ional Associations, and commissioner
of education for the state of Maine,
has appointed a committee to look
into the matter of the international
university.
The peace plan award differs from
that of Edward W. Bok in that it con-
templates a plan for world peace,
while the Bok award asks merely for
a plan for America's participation in
an attemn pt for world peace.
The Herman award is open to the
competition of all the world. It calls
for education and not legislation,.ex-
I cept in so far as legislation is needed
to back up the education. The rules
of the contest provide for the sub-.
mission of but one plan by any per-
son or group and the limitation of
each entry to 2,500 words. The con-4
I test closes July 1, 1924.

Washington, Jan. . 11.-(By AP)-
Realizing that modifications probably
must be made in the Mellon tax bill
if it is to command a majority in the
House, Republican members of the
ways and means committee discussed.
the question todayr with Represent-
ative Nicholas Longworth of Ohio,
party leader.
The conference lasted several hours
but those who participated declined
to disclose what had transpired other
than to say that the discussion had
been general and related solely to
procedure. The several changes in
tax rates, it was said, were not dis-
cussed and no decisions were reached.
Rep. Carner of Texas, ranking Demo-
crat on the committee,. who has a
substitutetfor the delhon plande-
! lared lie was convinced the Repub-
licans were alarmed and were seek-
ing to determine whether "they will
take a licking in the committee or on
the floor."
Mr. Longworth who lead the fight
to have the ways and means com-
mittee report a tax bill by Feb. 11,.
has expressed that there must be a
compromise to meet the demands of
the various elements of the Republi-
can party. Some ;of the party lead-
ers, among them a number of com-
mittee members are of the same be-
lief although some have"I taken the

SLondon, Jan 1.-As Labor govern.
ment in Great Britain draws nearer,.
the question of government repre-
sentation in the House of Lords i
arousing more discussion.
In the event the Labor party epmes
into power, kith J. Ramsay MacDon-
aid as Prime Minister, it will have
only one avowed representative in
the second house, the Earl of Lym-
berley, a Socialist.
One spokesman, Labor leaders
agree, would not be nearly enough
and they are casting about for a plan
ito sti ?ngthen the party's power among
the peers.
It Is thought possible Lord Bl ck-
master. Lord Parmour and possibly
Viscount Haldane might accept cab-
,inet posts in a Labor govermennt if
they were tendered them.
The rank and file of the Laborites
oppose creation of Labor peers, caus-
ing leaders to discuss legislation for
amending the present procedure so a
to permit members of the cabinet tc
address either house, or answer ques-
tions in either body.
Such legislation probably would not
provoke serious opposition, since both
the Conservative and Liberal parties
frequently feel handicapped at tb
present necessity of having a propor-
tion of their ministers from the peers

Portland, England, Jan. 11.-(By A.

located in 30 fathoms of water is the
British submarine L-24 which sank
yesterday after a colision with the
Dreanaught "Resolution." Toinght
there was nothing to give hope that
there would be any survivors among
the members of the crew.
Weymouth, England, Jan. 11.-(By
A. P.)-The British submarine L-24
was sent to the bottom of the sea
yesterday by the dreadnought Resolu-
tion in a collision. The disaster off.
Portland, was similar to one two years
ago, when the K-5.was sunk.
So far as known, all on board the
L-24, 43 in number, perished,
There is a bare possibility, naval
men say, that there may be some sur-
vivors, that is, if the submarine can
be brought to the surface. Depending
upon how the vessel was struck, the
crew may have been able to close the
water-tight compartments. In which
case they might survive for 48 hours.
A court of inquiry will be held
aboard the Resolution today. Salvage
efforts, interrupted by darkness yes-
I terday, were resumed at daybreak.

IMMIGRATION BlLL
TO REDUCE QUOTAS
House Commission Drafts Measure On
Basis Of Two Percent
In 1890
ANNUAL MINI)MUM INFLUX
PER NATION SET AT 200
Washington, Jan. 11.-(By AP)--
Restriction of immigration into this
country on a basis of two percent of_
the foreign citizens of each country
here in 1890 with an annual minimum
quota of 200 for each nation, was
voted today by the House immigration
commission in drafting a new bill.
The provision in the Johnson bill
providing for admission also of two
percent of the blood relatives of cit-
izens now here was stricken out. A
provision was agreed upon allowing
unrestricted entry of the wives orj
husbands of citizens, their children
under 18 years of age and their moth-
ers and fathers over 65 years of age.
The present law, which expires
June 30, restricts immigration to three
percent of the foreign born of each
nation in 1910. The restriction voted
today would cut by more than half
the present quotas of many countries
affecting most severely the southern
and eastern (countries.
Chairman Johnson indicated the
House would report the bill by next
week.
Representatives of fraternities
and other. campus groups wish-

room of the Union. Each group
wishing to do so may have
charge of a booth at the Fair.
Charles Livingston, '25, will
meet with the representatives at
this time to outline the work
that is to be underaken through
the booths. Livingston has been
made head of this section of the
Fair committee of which John
D. Briscoe, '24E, is general
chairman. Cups will be awarded
after the Fair to the group turn-

FORD'S SOLOFFR
'BEST Y $42000,000
Washington, Jan. 11.-(By A. P.)-
Henry Ford's offer for Muscle Shoals,
the American Farm bureau Federa-
tion declared today, would net the
government $42,000,000 more than the
new offer recently tendered by the
nine principal associated power com-
panies of the southern states.
The statement declared that exam-
ination of the two offers disclooed that
Ford would pay a total of $130,626,0001
over a 50-year period whereas the
power companies would pay but $87,-
'800,000.
"This so called offered of $100,000,-
000 becomes, upon investigation,
neither a bona fide- offer nor is it a
payment of $100,000,000," said Ray Sil-
ver, Washington representative. "It.
is merely.a suggestion that, these al-
lied power companies may subscribe
enough to pay 4 per centinterest on
the cost of the Wilson dam."
