THE BEE: UMAHA, t'JUUAX, AULrUST iy-'l. Federal Board Urges Training For Vocations Mrs. McClure-Patterson Will Write Bulletin Explaining Success, of Work in Europe. By HOLLAND. The federal board for vocational education was persuaded late in the winter or early spring that the work which it has in hand could be facili tated if accurate information respect ing vocational trai ing In the lead ing countries of Europe and in Great Britain could be secured. Having knowledge of the relation of Edith McClure-Patterson to the successful agitation in Ohio which has resulted in the enactment of a law which will make part time continuance at the puhlic schools possible, sent word to her in the hope that she might be persuaded to undertake the Eu ropean investigation journey. Privately Financial. Mr. MrClurs-Patterson waa mlitt appalled In view of the responsibility which a minion of that kind would n. tall. She, however, consented to so and waa assured that she would ba qualified aa a representative of tha United State! government. Sha waa told, however, that unfortunately the federal board did not have in hand at tha moment needed fund with which to pay the expeneea of inia jodrnay, John II. Patterson or Dayton, ()., who la one of the earliest to advocate Industrial vocational educa tion, having learned that the federal board waa without funds, offered to lurnian the money which wa needed. Shs has just returned to the United States, having been away a little over tnreo) months. In that time she visited England, Scotland. France, Belgium, tha area or the army of occupation at Co blents. Switiertand. Uermanv. Sweden. Denmark, Holland, but did not go to Italy because she met at London Dr. Maria Montlaorfl who was able to give ail trie information about Italian school method that waa needed. Th lnfn.rn.tlni. .,hf,.fe .... - 1 n 4 V la way contained, la now In tha hands of tha federal board at washlncton. It la vo uminous and la presumed to cover all the points respecting which tha board waa anj.lc.ua to secure information. It will be made uae of In the preparation of a national bulletin which is to be ssued by tne board In tha hope that it will be In f I nan 1 1. 1 In -ni,a(..B hn nnnnln n l.n fm portance of vocational training In tha sonoois. Already la tl States, Already 51 states have adopted the part time continuance plan which is the basis of the Ohio law. The federal board hopes that speedily every one of the 48 states will nave adopted this law and that the people of the country wilt be aroused to the necessity of establishing vocational training1. Mr a, McClure-Fatterson learned thai In almost all of the countries, If not all, the Interest in vocational training and in In structions to school children la based first upon health1 Instruction, second uoon forming of the habit of deep and correct thinking and third training In the use of the hands or eyes so that a scholar In the schools may learn a vocation upon which reliance can be placed for the earning of a living-. Scotland and Switzerland furnished the beat example of the advance which.' has been, made along new lines in the in struction of children. In Switserland the children In the achools are now highly trained In the manufacture of Jewelry, IS wise watches and kindred articles aa well as lace designing. Some of the little ones have gained great skill in fresco work and this training has been carried on aide by side with the custom ary teaching which, is given In the schools. ' Our ambassador to Belgium. Brand Whit look, took a special Interest In thla mission. He made it possible for Mrs. McClure-Patterson to be brought Into close touch with the Belgium authorities who' are directing the schools. She spent a half day with the minister of educa tion. - Kansas City IJve Stock. Kansas City, A UK. 25. (U. ti. Bureau head; beef steers dull, steady to tSo ,u i.

Chicago, Aug. 25. Considerable strength featured the late trade in wheat. Short covering was largely responsible for the advance. The an nouncement issued earlier in the day by the war finance corporation failed to encourage any big buying, but later when it was noticed that cot ton prices advanced sharply owing to the passage ot the rural credits bill, more attention was paid to the activity of the corporation, and shorts found it difficult to cover be cause of limited offerings in the pit Wheat finished with gains of 2 23-4c, corn was up l-4S-8c and i oats l-83-8c. l ,L . t .u. uunng ine tore pari ui uic acs sion, the wheat market exhibited lit tie activity and prices moved with in a nafrow range. The start was a shade higher on buying by Updike and locals, but the former sold later and there also was selling credited to northwestern interests. Values Forced Down. The combined selling forced values to below tho previous finish. Locals were of a bullish disposition, but tney expressed disappointment in the failure of the mar ket to advance on the receipt or news from Washington that the war finance corporation announced negotiations for fi nancing the movement of 14,500,000 bush els of wheat were approachlntn com pletton. Exporters were again after wheat here and they bid to over September prices, c. i f.. Buffalo or Georgian bay. but sellers were asking Uo better rate and no early buatness was worked at either basis. Corn prices failed to fluctuate' much In either direction. Like wheat, trade was of minor importance. Early in the day there was selling of September against purchoaes of December by a cash Interest sad this served to place the two months on an even basis. Oats trade was dull and narrow, with prices ruling lower after opening fraction. ally higher. Trade did not broaden as much aa expected and little selling pres sure was exerted due to the possibility that the operation of new reduced freight rates will be unfavorable to holders of the grain In store. Cash rye closed unchanged. '.No 2 sold at $1; No. 3 at 97097c Pit Notes. Omaha Grain No. Av.

By ALEXANDER DANA NOYES Chicago Tribune-Omaha Bee Leased Wire. New York, Aug. 25. After a good many days with little movement of consequence on any markets, today witnessed several interesting occur rences. JJemand loans on the stock exchange went to S per cent, the lowest rate since August 2, the day after the 4 1-2 per cent rate was touched. Sterling exchange again re covered vigorously to a rate fully 15 cents above the low figure reach ed at the end of July, when transfer of reparations money from London to New York was forcing the market down. The larger commodity markets moved upward, wheat advancing 2c a bushel and cotton going to a price which represented a rise since the month began of $15 per bale, or nearly Z5 per cent. The weekly reserve reports were some what noteworthy, although only through continuing the familiar rise In gold re serves and reduction of liabilities. For the whole system, the ratio of reserves went from 66 per cent to 66 per cent; rediscounts were down to the. small est total since March, 1918, and note circulation almost to the smallest total since the armistice. At the New York bank, a rise of 2 per cent brought the reserve percentage to a figure much the highest atnee 1917 and more than dou ble that of last February. Little Response Shown. Not much response waa made on the stock . exchange to these various Incidents. Prices moved very irregularly on a some what larger business. True to Its recent mental habit, the market was chiefly In terested in and mostly influenced by a stupid piece of misinformation regarding action by a Mexican oil producing com pany on its dividend. This performance demoralized the Industrial shares at mid day but the action of prices was un certain and confused from start to fin ish, only the railway stocks holding to a consistent movement. Two Interesting facts were presented In the weekly statements of the large Eu ropean banks one that the ratio of the Bank ot England's reserve to deposits reached the highest percentage of the year and the other that the note circu lation of the Bank of France, being cut down - 200 000.000 francs further, marked the lowest point since October of 1919 . The French caper currency now out standing Is less by 2,050.000,000 francs than this year's top level of May and Is smaller by 2.840.000.000. or 7 oer cent than the highest recorded figure.
