Educating the Indian If Willard W. Beatty, new director of Indian education throughout the United States, has his way the Indian child of tomorrow will feel that he belongs to a superior race. That is his announced intention and a fruition devoutly to be wished, for lack of pride—at least from the white man’s standpoint— has been one of the prevailing handicaps to the advancement of our red brothers. If the Indian doesn’t care—and very often he has seemed not to—it is difficult to do anything with him. If he has no in- centive of his own it is almost impossible to supply the spark. But Beatty hopes to apply to the Indian child the same system which won him fame as superintendent of schools at Bronxville, N. Y. There the elementary schools have no grades and no monthly marks. Each child progresses according to his ability in any subject. Education by the memorizing process has been largely eliminated but the memorizing which remains is emphasized as a means to an end, not an end in itself. not otherwise credited in this} Behind the Scenes McGroarty Sees Third Party as Peril to Townsend Plan . . . Coughlin Groups Stick to District System ...» There's Still Life in Technoc- racy ... U, S. Army Seeks In- crease in Efficiency. By RODNEY DUTCHER (Tribune Washington Cortespondent) Washington, Feb. 14.—Just when the Townsend groups had gotten fairly started on their district-by-dis- trict campaign to elect Townsenders to congress, somebody decoyed them down the Third Party alley, at least long enough to create some atmos- phere of uncertainty. Representative McGroarty, of Cali- fornia, sponsor of Townsend legisla- tion in the House, was one of the first and most vigorous objectors to the third party idea. He saw that, district by district, an organization like Townsend’s can make great prog- baad The Anti-Saloon league proved that. But McGroarty saw that a national ticket might well snow the movement under so badly that it would never recover. With Dr. Townsend recuper- ating from a light illness in a western hospital, this question seems to await @ definite answer. In the meantime, Father Coughlin’s National Union for Social Justice is not making the same mistake of a third party flirtation. It is operating on the district-by-district plan, and is bringing into activity the local clubs that can “turn the heat” on con- gressional candidates. Several large Ohio cities report 150 units of from 100 to 250 members each, already operating. Orders from Royal Oak to state di- rectors have led to tightening up and increasing the size of what had here- tofore been rather loose local organ- izations.

ALE LANDON HANDED OU SOME AWFUL HERE, UPON THE CONSTITUTION, COME AND AL smitH may THROW AWAY HIS DERBY The divorce from party politics has The thing has worked and the proof lies in the fact that the number of Bronxville school graduates who flunk in college is somewhat less than from the average school. That the new psychology will work out when applied in an Indian school remains to be proved, but there certainly is nothing against trying it. The old systems have been signally unsuc- cessful in the major task assigned them which has been that of making educated Indians think and act more like white men think they should. Maybe if we change the objective, make them proud of their own culture and help them to adapt it to our times, the economic and spiritual benefits will be very real indeed. Everyone in the west knows the necessity for improvement. Chance to Cooperate If people are to live in North Dakota cities and towns they must have water and the manner of getting it is a matter of in- creasing concern to both the state and local communities. In i recent years wells have gone dry or been rendered useless by other developments and in many areas the situation has, at times, been critical. Only those places which can draw a supply from the Mis- souri river are immune to this consideration. In view of this fact there is every reason why city officials everywhere should cooperate with the geological survey at the state university which is making a survey of the water situation with a view to locating more satisfactory water supplies for cities which now must depend on bad wells, and there are more than 20 such communities. By ascertaining the facts regarding all well water supplies, the geologists hope to find a way for these hard-pressed com- munities to solve their problems and with this in view they sent out questionnaires last December. As of Feb. 6, they report, only 122 towns had reported while 213 had ignored the request for information. Suggestion that these towns also report seems well founded. In solving public as well as private affairs knowledge is a means of avoiding costly mistakes. Poultry Watchdogs Do not be surprised if guinea hen soon becomes a common article of diet on North Dakota menus, for the agricultural ex- perts are advocating that we raise more of these querulous birds. The idea is not that they will prove profitable in them- selves but that they will stimulate profits from turkeys, which Jast year brought us almost as much money as our wheat. For the turkey, according to men who have studied him, is chucklehead, holding much the same position among domes- ticated fowl as the Chinese pheasant does among game birds. Frequently he doesn’t even know enough to find the feed hop- per or the warm spots under the brooder. The guinea chick has no such trouble. He is a bright fellow and takes easily to the processes of living. When turkeys and guineas range together it is the latter who always sound the first alarm when danger looms. The result is to protect the turkey against his own natural incompetence and so poultry- men are trying out the system of putting a few guinea eggs in with their turkey hatchings, since the period of incubation is the same. The result is to provide the poultry yard with a combined nursemaid and watchdog which the turkeys can appreciate. Propaganda in Reverse No more stirring indictment of the Nazi regime in Ger- many has come to light than that contained in a little pamphlet recently issued by the Non-Sectarian Anti-Nazi League to Champion Human Rights, Inc., a New York organization. Under the heading “Visit Germany This Year and See——” it details the organization of concentration camps in which are placed all who disagree with the government on any sub- ject whatever. It notes the attitude of the Nazi govern- ment toward all churches except those espousing the neopagan- ism of the Nazis, of how the Nazi government has crushed all Masonic lodges, suppressed trade unions, expelled women from the professions and industry and sent them to work in the fields. How it has harassed its racial minorities and destroyed its an- cient culture and, last but not least, how its desire for peace is “proved” by the intensive activity around its munitions plants. In this year when thousands of Americans will consider going to Germany to see the Olympic Games, it may have the effect of reducing the profits which Germany hopes to obtain from that spectacle, for it does bring home in a blood-chilling {way the differences between dictatorship as it exists in Ger- fmany and the liberty which every American accepts as his een birthright. been emphasized by Coughlin himself in barring congressmen or “politic- jans” from holding key positions in the local organizations. All this adds to perplexity of con- greasional candidates.

STAND BESIDE FRANK KNOX. another, to say nothing of Techno- crats, patriotic societies, organized ex- soldiers, farm groups, labor groups— all shouting at once and all shouting something different. In 1936 the life of @ candidate will not be a happy one. xe k Teochnocracy Still Lives Speaking of Technocracy, it’s not as dead as you might think. From a na- tional headquarters in New York, at least one organizer, A. I. Margolis, is touring the country actively, and Howard Scott, the founding father, is also due for a lecture tour this pring. Here, too, the movement is based on local and state organizations, all seeking to bring about “The.

Malin Craig has been U. 8. army chief of staff for only about four months, but in that time 27 gen- eral officer appointments have been made. Maybe that’s to get ready for the large-scale army maneuvers scheduled for the coming summer, Bix sets of “war games” are to be played, two of them involving large units, to get that experience in hand- ling large bodies which the American army has always conspicuously lacked. Last year’s maneuvers in the east showed that there was room for im- provement in this field. The winter air maneuvers just concluded in New England are only the first of a series.

Senator Pittman opened the drive for enlightenment on Monday when he biasted away at Japan. He is being ably abetted in the house where # $500,000,000 army appropriation bill is now being de- bated. And if that is not enough, the next ten days have been set aside by the Reserve Officers’ association for nationwide campaign for an adequate national defense. ‘The army bill asks $388,782,328 for actual military expenditures and $168,000,000 for non-military expendi- tures on rivers and harbors. This represents something of a record for peace time aj tions for mili- to the “troublous times” which now lafflict the world. With an equally If the American people are laboring | under any misapprehension about the | large amount likely to be appropri- ated for the navy department, the jnational defense budget will undoubt- edly be larger than it has ever been in @ time of peace. Just what constitutes an “adequate” national defense is something of a moot point. In the last analysis it must depend upon the type of for- eign policy we propose to maintain, and against what we are expecting to defend ourselves. On these two vital Points congress, as well as the coun- try, is far from having reached a def- inite decision. As a consequence we are proceeding to appropriate money to expand our army and our navy without having a clear idea of just why we are doing it, Perhaps the fact that everybody else seems to be doing the same thing exerts some influence on us, although tary purposes, and it is justified by the army high command as an answer {So They Say _| eee ‘The only way to remain out of Eu- Tope is to remain out of Europe.—Sen- ator Borah. ee * ‘We seek peace because we love it.
