of tho Interior a department of the
government Itself, with administrative
functions and a secretary the same
as any other department.
The bureau of education gathers
Information showing the condition
and progress of education and has
been of great help In giving advice
to state, county and municipal oill-
cials respecting tho administration
and Improvement of schools. It can
not Interfere directly with state operations, nor could a national department
If created. But the bureau lias not hesitated to call public attention to un
satisfactory conditions whenever criticism was desirable in the Interest of the
children, and thus It possesses a power of grent value for the public good.
It has direct charge of the education of the native children of Alaska, and
promotes home gardening under school direction and Increased food produc
tion. But becnuso It Is n bureau, one of many of n great department, the women
assert that It has not the lntluoiice which the Importance of Its work justifies.
It Is looked upon ns a minor branch of the government, whereas, because of
tho value of education to the people as n whole, It is claimed it should be on un
equality with other nlTiilrs of not greater moment to the nation.
To It could he transferred the educutlonal activities which exist to som
extent In both the army and navy, nnd especially the children's bureau, which
now functions under the department of labor.
Incidentally, if a woman Is ever to have a seat In the cabinet, a depart

government. It arose from a frame-up. The story In a rather distressing
one, and I hesitate very much to tell It. The military Intelligence department
of the war department realized the error thnt had been made, and the depart
ment of Justice also realized It; and both departments, together with the sur
geon general, tho head of the whole medical service, joined in an urgent re
quest that this relief be granted to Miss Lustig. She has been restored to
service, and sho Is now a member of the army nurse corps. I may say to the
senators that the government has done Its best to locate the blnme for this
thing. The persons Involved lu It have utterly disappeared."
This Is practically nil that Was said In the senate conernlng tho facts In
tho case. Senator King of Utah said: "I feel that the war department
should determine who committed this crime against tho nurse nnd prosecute
them criminally, and compel them to refund the amount. After waiting" a
reasonable tlnio I shall ask an Investigation of the entire mntter."
Vacancies in United States Diplomatic Service
ASIDE from the enemy countries and nations with which the United States
. has severed diplomatic relations there are eight vacancies in the American
diplomatic list. The United Stiues has no minister at the capitals of China,
Denmark, Costa Ulcu, Greece. The
Netherlands, Salvador, Slain and
fiuiUerlnnd. While Finland has n
minister here, no American envoy hns
vet been sent to tins new Finnish re
public. As ninny shifts usually occur fol
lowing a change of administration,
fear Is expressed that It will be dilli
cult to find men willing to accept
some of these appointments who are
well suited to tho work. Many men
would welconio an appointment for
one year as ambnssador or minister, hut experience seems to show tlmt tho
first year has been merely a training period for most dlplomnts.
Successful diplomatic achievement, as a rule, depends largely upon con
tinuity of service. Consequently, it Is snld. the men best qualified to till tho
existing vacanlos would not care to undertake the duties of envoy for so short
n period.
Furthermore, most of the secretarial positions held by diplomatic secre
taries lire now protected by civil service, and diplomatic secretaries who ac
cepted positions as chiefs of missions would risk the danger of removal In tho
event of a change of administration.
