POLITICAL ACTIVITIES

TWO SORTS OF SERVICE
SPEAKER DECLARES I
ATKINSON MAKES SPEECH
Many County Institutions Dubbed
Inadequate During Course
of Lecturing
Continuing the Citizenship school
series of lectures on county gov-
ernment, the speakers of the ses-
son yesterday afternoon presented
discussions upon the three leading
activities of the county-welfare,
education, and election.
Mr. Raymond Atkinson, of Ohio
Institute, Columbus, discussed the
problem of county welfare work.
Mr. Atkinson, basing his informa-
tion upon the experence which he
has obtained from his work in the
countiesofeOhio, observed that the
problems of welfare administration
may be limited to three classes-
the delinquent, the dependent, and
the defective.
Two classes of service, institution-
and non-institutional, are involved,
the speaker explained. While the'
majority of the problems of institu-
tional administration fall to the lot
of the state, the county still con-'
trols its poor-house and its jail.
Practically all the responsibilities
of outdoor relief ar left to its care,
those of poor relief and the care of
children holding an important posi-
tion.
"County institutions," said Mr.
Atkinson, "are a byword of today."
Stressing the inadequacy of the
county jail and the county in-
firmary, he continued to point out
the scarcity of the model institu-
tion.
The beginning that is yet to be
made must be an investigation of
the facts," concluded Mr. Atkinson.
"After that, constructive adminis-
tration, rather than the immediate
and temporary type of relief now
provided, must be supplied. This
can only be done through the em-
ployment of trained, full-time offi-
cials."
Miss Nelly Becker, whose work lies
in the field of educational adminis-
tration, next presented the discus-
sion of the county and the school.
The one outstanding problem of
education today, she asserts, is that
of providing equal opportunities for
all children living within the con-
fines of the state. "The county,"
she added, "can aid in the promo-
tion of its solution, since the larger
unit of administration which it
would provide would evenly dis-
tribute the burden of taxation."
"Though the state as a whole
should be responsible, if the county
unit is not the taxing agency, the
problem of unequal opportunity is
not solved," Miss Becker concluded.

PHYSICISTS MAKE
NEW SPARK PLUG
When the Ft. Worth made its
aeroplane endurance record of 172
hours at Ft. Worth, Texas, on May
29, under the guidance of PilotsI
Robbins and Kelly, one of the prin-
cipal elements in the successful,
performance was the perfect func-
tioning of the spark-plugs in the
huge Wright plane-and the per-
fecting of those spark plugs was
made possible through research
work in the scientific laboratories
of the University of Michigan.
Long before the record-breaking,
flight of the plane was planned, the
manufacturers of the particular
spark plug which was used in the
Ft. Worth asked the department of
engineering research of the Uni-
versity of Michigan to make forl
them a study of the variations inI
the voltage required to produce an
efficient electric spark in a spark
plug. This study in charge of Prof.1
O. S. Duffendack of the department
of physics, was carried out in the
physics laboratory of the Univer-
sity.

otherwise empty college buildings

workers.
Washington, D. C.-Thirty wo-
