He pointed out that one out of four persons in the nation attend some kind of school ‘at the moment—in other words, between 35 and 40 million students, “Thus,” he commented, “educa- tion is not merely a family, city or state probl but a national one.” He em zed that conditions even in distant schools are related to Alaska, as future business and other leaders will come from many of them. As to education in Alaska, where the Territorial Legislature has the chief responsibility, Dr. Ryan said that 13,000 children now attend public schools in elementary and secondary institutions, and 5,000 in ANS, private and parochial schoo! and the University of Alaska. Salvation Army Major Eric Newbould spoke for the first luncheon group, saying their talk had been of the importance of vo- cational training as rough mental development. BUILDING SITE NEEDED Mayor Waino Hendrickson spoke next, reporting that his table was, | concerned with physical needs for the Juneau school system, and that| they had once more gone over the | problem of a desirable site for a| new building, preferably in a| center of population. | For his tatle, Attorney Howard| D. bler pointed out the need for educating parents to teach | children to help themselves, and for teachers to give their students valu to counteract “love and| m movies and the influence| of certain so-called comic books. | THREE-WAY SERVICE ice Powers, Chief Executive he Boy Scouts here, used his| minutes for a well-organized | which related Education Week Rotary ideals of service: indi- a S ESENRER FARES 27 EEEERENRESEIE.
