- GREEN SEES RAISE INTAX NEXT YEAR Declares Responsibility for Reduction Must Rest With the Senate. Warning that the reduction bill, on which 1s expected early this wes an increase in taxes nece: year, and that ‘‘the respon: rest with the Senate,” was gi 7,000,000 tax tinal action k. will make 'y next Lility mus ven in a statement today by Chairman en of the House vs and means com: mittee and of the House conferees who brought the Senate munagers to terms. He figures that the compromise with the Senate reduces the revenues of the Government some 08,000,000 in 19 )d that the Nation must square u ounts later He will bring the retroactive reduction in the in- heritance levy up on the Hoor of the House, to be fought out there. Mr. Green fought strenuously against the Senate retroactive provision, to which the other House confe s agreed in order that they might get restored to the bill the House inheritance tax which the Senate had voted to repeal. Revised Treasury calcuatons, su Green said, show that the bill will result in an estimated loss of revenue of $309.000,000 in the fiscal year 192 which begins next July 1. and will cut receipts in the remainder of the current fiscal vear ending June 30 by $109,000,000 “The estimated surplus for the fiscal year 1927. when the budget es timate was m: was $§330.307.000." Mr. Green continued. “but this do not take into consideration large addi-j tions which will probably be made to the expenditures listed in the budget. “It may, therefore, be nedessary to increase taxation after the expiration of a year, when it can be determined more accurately what our revenues will be. We will not only need all that the estate tax will bring, but may be obliged to raise the amount now provided for by it and to obtain additional _revenues from other sources. For this condition the respopsibility must rest upon the Senate. The case is similar to that of Harold S. Marsh, 18, charged with setting fire two weeks ago to the Victoria Apart- ments on Fourteenth street. Marsh confessed, the police say, to firing the Victoria and a number of other places. He was held under $10.000 for action of the grand jury and investigati s sanity. The destructive rtment fire occurred on Sunday morning. and Marsh, who lived at the apartment, was arrested on the scene, as in the case in Capitol Height The Capitol Heights son of Robert W. Ca Franklin street, that place. PRACTICE SCHOOLS’ BENEFITS PRAISED Are of Inestimable Value in Train- ing Student Teachers, Ex- pert Declares. outh is the living on There 1s perhaps no other one ele- ment in the training of prospective teachers so important and vital as the actual laboratory or teaching work done In the practice schools, Robert MacMillan, principal of School of Ob- servation and Practice, Philadelphia, told the city teacher training section meeting of the National Education Association, at a meeting this after- noon in the New National Museum. Training in the practice schools, Mr. MacMillan explained, serves a twofold purpose “in that it not only furnishes a basls for determini whether the {ndividual is a worth- while prospect as a teacher, but also glves to the student teachers an ex- perience In the real teaching which is of inestimable value in developing a poise and confidence fn themselves which will be a dominating influence in deciding the degree of their success later.” Other speakers on laboratory ex- rience were: ‘arren B&w, dean, etroit Teachers' College, Detroit, Mich.; E. J. Bonner, principal, Rochester City Normal School, Roch- ester, N. Y.; J. Jones Hudson, Cleve- land Junior Teachers' College, Cleve- land, Ohlo, and Ambrose L. Suhrie, ew York University, New York City. President Charles W. Hunt, dean, Cleveland School of Education, Cleve- land, Ohlo, presided, and Secretary Frank Webster Smith. Paterson, N.

A. |Declares Invasion of Culture Is Inevitable; Woman Scores Fathers’ Lack of Interest in Education; Lowden Warns of Rural Teaching Decline. (Continued_from most men were slaves, ouly partial rights of c | ucation was a luxury for a small Igroup. This view was intensified in | Burope with the renaissance of Greek jand Roman culture, but when, after | the dark ages, the Roman Church {assumed the role of bringing order or enjoyed izenship, ed- out of chaos as both a temporal and | religious power, education became pe- culiarly the task of the church and ibe prerogative of the priesthood. This idea persisted in America. Wit- ness. for example, how largely the colleges of our country were religious in origin and purpose. “With the growth of the Democratic 1 iceas, education has become ar, and not only the privilege of the many, but, in the case of elemen- y education, a necessity which the Staie attempts to enforce upon all. We have wisely separated the func- tions of church and state, but, in avoid- ing the Seylla of political interferen we have steered u of State education without religion. It is doubtful if we | i introduce religious instruction in school without interference s freedom, but we must uce character ef- how we are to solve It to suggest. We t the present time. he publ! 1st m is diffi ing studies There are the various plans whereby Lildren are dismissed from the school for religious instruction in the church of their choice. such as are in use at iary.

Then. too, we are making con- derubie progress with moral instru The Characte Education In stitution has done u great deal to {stimulate research in this field of character training, and its efforts have resulted in the Iowa plan. Moral in- struction_has been tried on a large scale in France and reports are that results are gratifying. The methods can be successfully evolved and le outside the scope of this discussion, but we are stressing the obvious need of character as a_primary purpose of the elementary school. Suggests Objections. I believe that we have sufficient empirical knowledge today that en- ables us to point out certain objectives of elementary education that should be stressed at this time, without walit- ing until the posaibilities of natural law and human experience are ex- hausted. If any of these paths lead us astray, or others must be added, experience and increasing scientific analysis should enable us to detect them. And just as each of the varlous openings and gambits in the chess game attempts to bring about a char- acteristic relation of pleces and pawns from which an attack is made to checkmate the king. and thus a num- ber of tenative objectives converge upon a single grand purpose, so it may be that we may venture to sug- gest that the several general objec- tives of education at this time are driving toward some supreme end of highest siznificance in the age in which we live. . “If the objectives of elementary education could be established in this way, even tentatively, we would have a working basis upon which to con- struct a curriculum. All curriculum content could be tested in relation to these objectives, and those materials which were found to be most effective in promoting the ends desired could be included. Materfals unrelated to our objectives, or duplicating other materials more effective and already sufficient for the purpose. would then be eliminated from the curriculum. i some such practical device for testing curriculum methods is not soon adopt- ed. pending the completion of a scien- tifically constructed curriculum which will require a long period of years. I fear that the public, the over-burdened taxpayer or some one else, will rise up and take the matter in hand. Health Is Fundamental. «]1 believe that there is general nz\':emanl that health is a funda- mental objective in the elementary I am aware that e sclen- culam makers will say: ‘D sofldcyc:;:lws what health is or how it should be taught.” _Strictly speaking. that may be true, but in our present understanding of social problems, health and health-teaching, do we not know enough to say that better health is something devoutly to be wished for, that it depends in large measure upon proper eating, drinking, sleeping, exer- cising, cleansing, breathing, protection from disease, correction of remedlable defects and certain other things upon which we are reasonably well agreed? Do we not know enough about health- teaching at the present time to say that it is useless to attempt to teach the philosophy or principles of hygiene to children in the elementary schools, but that successful health teaching depends very largely upon the forma- tion of proper health habits among children of this age, and good health habits can be formed if we have sys- tematic physical examination, periodic weighing and measuring, daily inspec- tions, regular and careful supervision of exercise and play, complete records, and so on through the program that our present experience suggests? “Furthermore, when we know that mental phenomena are somehow cor- related with and organically condi- tioned upon health and bodily vigor, when we have reasonably accurate data with reference to the existence of physical defects among school chil- dren, when we know that one-third of the men examined in the late war were found to be physically unfit for any kind of military service and one- half unfit for unlimited service, and when we know that our Nation suffers an annual economic loss due to pre- ventable disease and death among wage earners that is greater than our entire annual expenditure for all kinds of education, and when we have other information equally as signifi- cant with reference to social condi- tions, are we not safe in saying that our present knowledge of the condi- tions in the country, of health and methods of teaching, justify us in as- serting that health should be made & fundamental objective in the philos- ophy ‘of elementary education? I be- lieve that we can answer all these questions very emphatically in the affirmative. Can Proceed Practically. “We can then proceed practically in the light of present knowledge and needs, while the scientific analysis of health, methods of teaching, relation of mind and body, hurhan experience and other related matters may con- tinue from time to time to shed mew light upon the problems involved.” “Agaiff; I think that there will be general agreement that we have suf- ficent knowledge of the problems in- volved to say that elementary educa- tion should aim very definitely to im- plant the fundamentals upon which depends the use of written and spoken language and numbers, and to instill the rudiments which are essential to efficient functioning, in a modern society, and which are likewise the basis upon which a broad superstrue- ture of culture may be erected In later years. By all this, I have in mind the mastery of the vehicles of expression and intercommunication, a general grasp aof the history, customs, and habits of the peoples who have created our civilization, including a beginning of discrimination with re- gard to contributions of art, music, -dene-mmdmry.é!u-mwfl | | implication that, due to the multipli- city of purposes now in vogue in the school program or for some other rga- son, we are not now thoroughly teach- ing the fundamentals. I am convinc- ed that we shall do better if we strive for @ few things and do them well than if we attempt much and master little or ncthing. i “I am aware that thé cmrriculum- makers sometimes allude with pity or Scorn to those so naive as to suggest such general purposes as I mentlon here. “Possibly, of all the terms de- scriptive of the goal of education which have been weighed and found wanting by the purveyors of scientific knowledge in the field of educational alms, the term ‘culture’ - has been banned with the greatest finality. Real Culture Needed. I make bold to ussert that we have sufficient general agrecement as to what culture means, sufficient knowl- edge about how culture is imparted and more than sufficient knowledge of the dearth of culture In this country at the present time to justify us in aying that it is a fundiumental pur- pose in tne scheme of the elementary school. The fact that o many people prefer “Jazz” to music; the books of the hour, with their sordid appeal to S2x and vulgarity, to literature: the rashy and salacios and similar predilections, ind: we need a real invasion of literacy 1s such a ate that iture. 11- ovne hesitates to sug have any possible vi; pling of some of the popul pabulum that is now being swallowed by the A, ican people would lead one o surmi U ilice may have some compensation and at least serves as a literary vaccination which ren- ders one Immune to mental pollution. It is recorded that the American peo- ple rejected as a free gift and our art galleries would not provide wall space for Whistler's portrait of his mother, which now hangs in Luxembourg Gal- lery, in Paris, and is said to be valued at more than a million dollars. It is not pleasant or provocative of patriot- ism to dwell upon these things, but they certainly point clearly to the need of & thorou injection of a broad and deep groundwork of culture in the elementary school “A third general purpose of the elementary school should be efficiency {n both personal and soelal mat T realize that the halr a8 belng almost as indefinite and vague as culture. But the mighty em- phasis which has been developed in recent years upon learning by doing Is indicative that we sense the fact, however indistinct the concept may be at the present time, that we need to glve the boy or girl of the elementary | school a better preparation fo meet practical situations. We see the need of more hard work and the sl ills of action. Is Foundation Period. Of course, there Is nothing ; voca- tional implied and, while the major effort toward vocational diagnosis should be postponed to the junior hi school period, stil, I believe that 1 elementary school has a distinct ob. ligation in discovering and developing aptitudes and interests of o non.vo cational character. It should at least begin to lay a foundation upon which vocational training may be later built. Likewise, economic efficiency (which § more than thrift), pérseverance, in. dustry and the joy of effort belong here. Education” is not simply the emancipation of the intellect, but it implies the liberation of the will, skill and satisfaction in successful achieve. ?l\::z.m;g?:equ:nu,-.duur third objec- ments and correla e TR correlates our e have offered four fundame objectives as the end of elempm"afrn,! education—health, mastery of the fundamentals as a basis of culture, personal and social effciency, and character. These objectives are not exhaustive, nor mutually exclusive, Any statement of aims i3 essentlall overlapping, and. to some extent, tificial. Such terms as recreation. worthy home membership, proper use of lefsure time, and other current phrases, all intermix as ends of edu- cation. Further, we do not pretend to set down these four objectives in the order of importance. It may be that diffusion of knowl- edge is not casually related with di- minished exercise of dutles of citl- zenship, but, whatever the cause, the problem can be solved only by atten. tion to citizenship training in the school. It is at least pertinent to in- quire why the percentage of edu. cated persons who interest them. selves In clvic matters fs often very emall. It was recently reported that among seven professors in a great university, not one could call the name of the Representative who rep- resented that district. Progress Encouraging. ““We are all encouraged at the rapid progress we have made toward better methods of teaching citizenship in the school, and there is little doubt that the educational program of today will meet the situation adequately. We are decidedly optimistic about the school of today and the future. It has shown remarkable aptitude in adapting it- self to the need of the hour. It prob ably i8 the most flexible institution that we have and has made more progress in the past decade than at any other time in history. 7] “I began this discourse with a jic- ture of the ark of education lab¢ fing on the surface of the deluge. . did this because I remembered the words of God to Noah: ‘Whenever I shall bring a cloud on the earth, the bow shall be upon the cloud.’ “It requires no educational Noah to see spread above the ark of education a resplendent railbow, which is the reflection of the glorious triumph that our present plans for training citizenship shall eventually achieve, I think we can readily detect amid the brilllantly colored bands of that rainbow of worthy citizenship the un- mistakable hues of good health, broad culture, economic prosperity and no- ble character.” Sees Great Change. Continuing his dark picture of edu- cational conditions in the rural com- munities of the United States, which be emphasized deserve the utmost consideration of all educators, ex- Gov. Lowden continued: *“A healthy rural community life is essential to any continuing civilization. Is the rural community breaking down in the United States? Many think so. I recall the country school of my early days. It was the Center of a genuine community life. The schoolhouse was a_ simple structure, plain and un- adorned. But the country school it- self was a different thing from what it is today. There were pupils enough in each district to make the school a vital thing. It was large enough to stimulate the group spirit. The school could feel a pride in its numbers and i its achievements. There were pres- ent all the elements required for the growth of & fine spirit of sportsman- ship, both in the classes and upon the playground. And this spirit has been found indispensable to success among self-governing peoples. The school- house, too, was something more t a mere educational center. Spelling classes, arithmetic classes and debat- societies drew from the country- for miles around not only. -the but the adults as well, I s shows to drama, | splitting | analysts may condemn this ohjectiva | How changed the country school of today! Population Declines. “The population in the school dis- trict, due largely to improved farm machinery, has steadily declined. A few years ago, the State of Iowa en- acted & law by which when the num- ber of pupils in any school district was reduced to five the school should be closed and provision made for carrying those puplls to another school. Under that law 500 schools in the State of Iowa alone have been closed. The country school, therefore, has Jost its old vitality and its old im- portance in the life of the people. It is hard to make the school directors themselves believe that they need give much _attention to so small a group. For the most part, the little school house, which was once so dynamic a thing in the life of the community, has fallen into neglect. It remains upon the Hilltop as of yore. It too often, though, has an appearance of decrepitude and is usually a melan- choly memorial of better days. “At the same time that the rural school has been undergoing this evo- lutfon the schools in the towns and citles constantly have improved. Hand- some and stately bulldings have taken- the place of -the ruder struc- tures of earlier years; the course of instruction has been greatly broad- ened; sanitation and recreation have {been provided for. In other words, for « half century at least the rural schools have been going backward, while town and city schools have been moving forward. Isolation Broken Down. “The old isolation of the farm in a sense has been broken down by the telephone, the automobile and the radio. Communication and Inter- change of visits between those who live in the country and those who live in the city are hecoming more fre- quent all the time. The farmer knows how the city man lives. The farmer’s wife knows the conveniences that the housewife in the city enjoys. The farmer and his wife and children know of the superiority of the city school over the country school. The time, therefore, hus come when we must strive to equalize conditions of living upon the farm and in the towns and cities. We shall be unable much lohger to maintain a double standard of living in the United States, as we have in recent years. If the inequall- ties which now exist shall continue we shall not much longer be able to keep the normal boy and girl upon the farm. The trek cityward is already under way. If it shall go on as rap- idly as it has in the last five years, the next generation will witness a farm population largely composed of lly and mentally unfit. lucators have not been blind to this disustrous contrast. In some sec- tions of hte country consolidated coun try schools have been established. These schools have marked a vast im- provement in the life of the com- | munity. For farmers are as eager to give their children a good education |as those who live in the cities and ‘ns. They have found. though, the consolidated school, to be at |all adequate, means a heavier tax bur- den than they can bear. | Warns of Farm Neglect. “The progress and security of a nation depends largely upon the kind of people who live in the country. The cities may be more splendid and { brilliant. They are likely to attract the | notice of visitors more from far lands. | They may have a more conspicuous place in the histories which men | write He, however. who would; measure the soundness of a nation and predict its future will go out into the open country to learn what manner of men he there will find. A city mayv burn to ashes and a more splendid one arise upon its ruins. | But when the soil from out of which the greatness of the city springs is | once impoverished or the peopie liv- = upon it reduced to penury, the | city will vanish from the map of the world. History records a long line of great. splendid, metropolitan cen- ters that enjoved their brief day— brief as history measures time—and |then disappeared forever because | thes neglected the countryside which | has nourished them. This may have come about by the exhaustion of the soil. It may have been by the grad- ual Impoverishment of those who till the soil. It does not matter. For the maintenance of the soll and the well being of those who cultivate it are equally vital to any nation that would endure.” Having unburdened herself of her, serfous indictment against America's fatherhood, Miss McSkimmon contin- ued: “The school principal knows that his real service to his school world con- sists in being an interpreter. It is onl a matter of careful study under weill equipped authorities to find out how to give mental tests that shall meas- ure the child's native ability to learn, but how to profit by the knowledge that he gains is not so simple a mat- ‘He muét know how to interpret the facts so as to make the right ad- justments for the child.

Demands Teacher Reward. “The ulv:filn( of the gifted child is not a difficult task in this land where opportunity springs up over night. There is always promotion possible, always opportunity for en- riching his course by the materials giving new experience and awakening that greatest reward for work, the Jjoy of achievement. But it is just as fine an achlevement to discover the gifted teacher, and one that has long walted accomplishment. The price that the really gifted genius among teachers pays for advancement s pro- motion to a position of adminlistration where the children are robbed of her power to awaken, of enlarging their horizon.” As Emerson says of such, “By sim- ple living, by an illimitable soul, you inspire, you correct, you instruct, you raise, you embellish all. By your own act you teach the beholder how to do the " practicable. According to the depth from which you draw your own life, such is the depth, not only of vour strenuous effort, but of your manners and presence.” You are all recalling at this moment just such a rarely gifted teacher that you have once known. Cannot this honorable group find some way to reward such service, and keep it for the healing of the world through its blessing to little children?; some means of real recog- nition that will epable the gifted teacher to grow In power till her achievement {s as known and ac- claimed as that of a great musician. “The efiicient elementarv principal gets his real power through his touch with his community. He is a member of the church of his choice, men's clubs for social and political interests, the Board of Trade or Chamber of Confnerce will welcome him if he is the real producer of human values that he should be, Anything that will get him and keep him in touch with men, real, live ones, will be his salva- tion, for at times it seems as if his l{Hnd has broken from its moorings, fathers are teacher no more. organization is one of his profession, but after a few years he begins to wonder if the entire pop- ulation of his school are the children of widows.
