of the National Education association
and Affiliated societies' came to a close.
Dr. Joseph Swain, pr-wloent-elect. spoko
briefly upon tne program ror the en
suing year.
Thomas Jesse Jones, of the United
States Bureau of Education, pleaded for
more democracy in education. "While
we have prbclalmed our belief In the
education of alt the people with almost
boastful pride," ho said, Vwe have been
clinging with blind tenacity to a form
of education that is both traditional and
aristocratic.' His theme Was one upon
which special emphasis was laid by
speakers at department meetings today.
Bpeaklnc on tho subject of morality
and wages, Irene K. McDermott of
Pittsburgh declared that education must
bo looked to In order to Increase effi
ciency so much that employers would
raise wages voluntarily. Education also,
she said, w6uld prevent .immorality
among girls where a minimum wage
would not.
Tho secondary department elected the
following offlcerst Oliver S. Wcstcott,
Chicago, president I I, M. Allen, Wichita,
Kirn., vice presidents B, C. lioberts,
Everett, Wash., secretary. The muelo
department elected Agnes Benson, Chl-
cngo, president: Lucy K, Cole, Seattle,
vice president; Glen IL Woods, St Lobla.
secretary.
The department of special education
elected the following officers:
Dr. M. P. Grtfssmann, Plalnsvllte, N
J president John B. Curtis, Chicago,
Vice president; W. E. Taylor, Gooding,
Idaho, sceretnry. The physical dpart
ment elected Baroness Itoso Posse, Bos
ton, president; W. J. Montlan. Univer
sity of Chicago, vice president; Orson
Ryan, MIdvale, Utah, secretary.
It was learned tonight that a poll of the
board of directors, which meets tomor
row morning to select the convention
cltfes for tho next two years, indicated
that St Paul had a, majority ot three
over Atlantic City for tho next meeting
place. Oakland will bo tho unanimous
choice for 1915.
A new department, the classroom
teachers' department was organised to
day and tho following officers elected:
Mary Bosser, Salt Lake City, president:
Mary O'Connor, Buffalo, vice president
and Miss Adklsson, Denver, secretary.

and now a senator from Now Jersey,
"Were you sent to help beat Hughes
by tho National Association of. Manu
facturers?" asked- Mr. Iteed.
"Yes, sir."
"Why did they want to beat Hughesr'
"On account, of his holding a Union
card, being affiliated with the American
Federation of Labor and his activity on
the floor of the houso andi with the labor
leaders In Washington." '
Kurten was given credentials. Mulhall
sold, so he could get .Into union labor
meetings to oppose Hughes.
"The work of this kind was always
secret" said Mulhall. "It was done un
der cover.".
"Did you pose as a, friend ot the labor
organisation;) and thus work against
these organizations from the insider"
asked Senator Cummins.
"Not at that time."
Chairman Overman of the senate com
mittee sent a formal notice to chairman
of the hquso committee at 10:$Q o'clock
that the senate committee would Insist
pn keeping Mulhall as a witness until
they had finished with him.
Chairman Overman , assured the bouse
committee that the senate Investigators
would release Mulhall later, subject to
a house subpoena, and make available
to the house committee's order "any and
alt papers now or which may corns Into
our possession in connection with tola

Testifying further about the campaign

"You have all the vacation you need
