ANDEDUCATIONAL CRISIS Inadequate school Housing and scarcity of teachers throughout the land make an "educational crisis," in the opinion of President Harding. There will be no general disagreement with his judgment, though a good many localities will point with pride to the ample provision which they make for schooling their youth. But the president is not dismayed by the situation as a whole. In his address at the College of William and -Mary he stated a fact that it were well for those who deplore a fancied American -retrogression In matters educational to consider The president finds no reason for misgiving or pessimism In the situation, grave as it, Is. Though we are not providing adequately, we are not going backward. Though we do not keep up with the demand, vre are going ahead. The "more generously we provide today, the greater Is the deficiency tomorrow," the president asserted. For this he is glad, because "so long as the eagerness for education outruns our most generous prevision of facilities there will be assurance that we are going ahead, not backward." The eagernets for education is the significant thing- With double the facilities which the country has, educational progress could not go beyond the wlllngness cf the people to avail themselves of it. With the popular demand for education Increasing there Is no question that efforts to meet H w-IU be unremltlng. At the momer disparity between demand and supply Is extraordinary, due to causes with which everybodx is familiar. Proper increase of school facilities has been impossible for a number of years, save In most pressing instances. But there is no disposlticn to neglect the need. Teaching staffs, sadly disrupted during the war period, are being restored to normalFar more money than ever before is being expended on education. But the eagerness for learning to which

WTIICH NOVEL TO.BEAD. With the definite object of learning what he could from such a perilous undertaking, someone has just read 1,000 novels. Contrary to what might be expected from this adventure, our voracious reader apparently came through the ordeal In good health. It wlli make us somewhat more charitable toward what this individual has to say In the matter of current Action if we remember that when placed side by elde as they are arranged am book shelves, 1,000 nove!3 will take up nearly 120 feet of shelf. This amount of leading matter, particularly In modrn fiction, could easily prove the undoing of the best of us. "Only about 100 of these books," says the devourer of literature, "deserved publication; the remaining 90 per cent were valueless." It might be remarked that some of us who read only ten books a year have come to the same con-, elusion, and that we thus spared ourselves the task of reading the other 990. The quandary remains, how

ever, that we are net all agreed on just what sort of book is worth reading. Until there Is more agreement than there is today on what books are worth reading, it is rash to say, an this critic did. that only ten out of 100 books are good reading. Perhaps If he bad not read so many he might have had mure fun out of a few.

LIFE SAVING STRICKEN RUSSIA

Col. William Haskell, head of the United States relief administration In Russia, has placed the situation in the stricken country and elsewhere upon an arithmetical basis which informs Interested and indifferent just what the cash cost of defeating the famine and saving millions of lives will beColonel Haskell has just completed a survey of the famine territory and reports that, discounting possible exaggerations in numbers, not more than 15,000,000 persons are included In the area of suffering. Not all these are foodless and starving, he explains, but all are short cf adequate supplies. He estimates that if full and prompt relief 'is furnished for 5,000,000 persons for six months all the lives at present menaced by starvation will be saved and the emergency tided over. Going somewhat into detail. Colonel Haskell estimates that $5 per head during the full famine period of six months, or a total of $50,000,000, will relieve the starvation threat and carrj: the menaced population over Into the next self-supporting season. Colonel Haskell's Idea is that if an adequate food supply la furnished for 5,000,000 of the famine territory from outside sources there will be enough to feed all the people, as only a portion are totally without

rations of any kind. As is the case of the famlnest ieken Chinese, however, Colonel Haskell says that while corn could be supplied in abundance to feed all the sufferers, they would need to be educated to Its use.

Instead of the rye, to which Russians are accustomed, or

wheat which will be difficult or impossible to ship in sufficient quantities- The relief administrator's arithmetic showing that $5 per head will save 15,000.000 lives rather Invites the world sympathetic to action.
