College Plans to Drop Courses Pres. Goodnow Proposes That Only Graduate Students Be Accepted in Future. ■Baltimore, Md., March 14.—Another forward step In the advancement of American education is under way at Johns Hopklhs university. Coincident with the starting of the first school of “International rela tions" In the world, comes the an nouncement that university heads plan another radical departure from the present American system of higher education. The proposed plan, as outlined by Pr. Frank J. Goodnow, president of the university, briefly Is this: That Johns Itopktns eliminate from its courses the first two years of undergraduates, or college work, and combine tho last two with what Is known as graduate work. Eliminate Degrees. This would mean the elimination automatically of the “Bachelor's De gree" and tho substitution of a higher degree upon completion of the new course. While tho proposal for the change has not been considered as yet by the board of trustees, It is believed the plan as suggested ^n- Dr. Good now has found a great deal of sym pathy among the officials of the school. The chief reason for the establish ment of the new scholastic level Is the fact that Hopkins then would be on a par with the more noted univer sities of Europe to which so many American youths arc attracted for the completion of their graduate work. I To Many Pupils. It would also. Dr. Goodnow points out. solve that other problem now : vexing Johns Hopkins along with ! other American schools—the problem of an ever-increasing enrollment. Un less some radical change is made in courses or standards, he contends. Hopkins may justly be taunted with tho phrase "mass instruction” at some time in the near future. Should the Goodnow plan merit the approval of the university trus tees, however, It will not he placed In full operation until 1929, the year the present freshman class will b© grad uated. In the meantime entering classes might be made to conform with the new regulations nnd stand ards. Another stumbling block to be overcome before tho new curriculum Is definitely established is the Mary land legislature. At present state aid is voted the university but con tingent upon the maintenance of cer • talri courses and classes. Because of this the solons would have to be convinced before the change could be made.

Sen ator Howell will be a member of the following committees: Interstate com fnerce, library, civil service and Claims. , Senator Norris retains his Chairmanship of the agriculture and forestry committee and has hecn as gigncd to committees on Judiciary and patents. There has been a number of renuesis for seeds. Appropriation for (he dlstributldn of seeds was taken off at the 67th congress and has never been reinstate!?, so the free distribu tion of seeds is no longer possible. The Department of Agriculture Issues eome valuable pamphlets on home gardening which can be had for the asking.

Vienna, March 14.'—Austria. wltN its currency again apparently safe, is growing restive under economio strlctlons which have been laid down for it, High Austrian dignitaries h&vt re cently visited Geneva, and it is un deistood that they are asking for greater economic freedom for their country. Austria is still hemmed in hv strin gent restrictions of its budget and the high rate of » xchange. while the pro hibitive custom* system of neighbor ing state* still hampers its trad#*. With 160,000 unemployed, with some 350,001) civil servant* in a popu lation of 6.500,000, constantly increas ing price* and a big deficit in the trade balance, the outlook la Hut sromi.dng. In some quarter* great stress is laid on the theory that Austria can only s*i \ e itself by economic fusion with Germany, but nn attempt in this direction might lead to political com plications which would be disastrous. The situation is not improved by internal strife between opposing parties, conflict between Vienna *n,l the provinces and over taxation by tnunicipalities. Revival seems still a long way off, and the depression of the population is intense—it may he measured by 143 cases nf suicide in one month.
