National University at Washington Proposed by Fess
Representative Simeon D. Fess proposes a national university in Washington to cultivate unknown discoveries. It would supplement existing colleges, admit only degree holders on skill recommendations, and attract European students while using national libraries and government bureaus. He aims to push the plan through this session. A second Fess proposal envisions rehabilitating injured workers through vocational retraining in cooperation with state industrial commissions.
