MEXICAN SCHOOL NEEDS EXPLAINED Dr. Frank Tannenbaum Tells Indian Bureau of Year’s Study. At a staff meeting of the Indian Bureau of the Department of Com- merce yesterday Dr. Frank Tannen- baum discussed rurai .education in Mexico, illustrating his .lecture with motion pictures taken in the mountains of that country. Dr. Tannenbaum _explained that his study of Mexican Indian schocls was undertaken et the invitation of the Mexican government, but not under its n\upu:es He spent one year in the work. “Mexico is & country not of indi- duals, but of communities,” he said, “s country of little towns inhabited by family. groups, widely separated. There are 64,000 such communitles and about 60,000 rural schools will be needed to serve them.” Farming and Hunting. Some of these communities are free and some are on plantations. Farming and hunting are the principal occupa- tions. “A group of this type,” Dr. Tannen- baum explained, “thinks and acts as a unit. ere is no individual opinicn; there is only community opinton. We cannot understand Mexico unless we realize this essential difference between the Mexican mind and the American mind. The United States is a Nation of individuals; Mexico is a nation of communities. - With us what .he in- dividual thinks is important; with them only what the community thinks ‘is of any consequence.” Tribal Gods Prevail. The Indians of Mexico, Dr. Tannen- baum believes, have never really been Christianized. They still have their ok tribal gods in the mountains, and Chfl&- tianity has been a matter of pret rather than a psychological Lw. 1n !he lives of the people. He exhibit:d mo- tion pictures of tribal dances represent- ing the struggle between Montezuma and the Spaniards. Dr. Tannenbaum spoke wllh admira- tion of the native system for distribut- ing news. “We always Im.nd thay we were expacted when we arrivad at a new village. The word that we were on the way had spread through the country. Every panh:le of important news is dis- seminated in the same way and with a ‘marvelous tpeed. ‘The moment a thing happens it is reported far and wide. Every man is a reporter; every woman is'a newspaper.” CUNNINGHAM TO FACE COURT HERE FRIDAY Former Philadelphia Sheriff, Ac- cused of Senate Contempt, to Be Arraigned. issued a mandate requiring the appear- ance of Cunningham before the local court for trial.

President Hoover mace public today Samuel R. McKelvie's letter of resig- nation from the the Federal Farm Board in which McKelvie expressed his conviction of the “soundness of the agricultural marketing act.” The retiring Farm Board member, & Nebraskan, said the board had made substantial progress in two directions, first, by assisting the farmers to estab- lish an enduring marketing system owned and controlled by them, and second, in applying emergency measures to prevent "preclplnte declines in farm commodity prices. McKelvie said more had been ac- complished in the development of co- operative marketing during the board's existence than could have been achieved in 10 years without it. He added that by meeting emergenices through stabili- zation, the board had “given to agri- culture and the country at large & relief of immeasurable value.” “Stabilization activities in wheat and cotton,” he said, “stayed the shock of precipitate declines that otherwise would have taken place and gave the farmer time to market his crops while ldh;:fln‘ himself to changing economic con B “Price declines that were inevitable have come about gradually instead of at once. This has saved untold millions to farmers and has prevented numerous unwarranted farm failures. “From my two-year service on the Federal Farm Board I am firmly con- vinced of the soundness of the agricul- ture marketing act. I am sure it will do all that was claimed for it by you and its other advocates.” President Hoover, in his reply, told McKelvie he had “contributed a real public service to American agriculture which I know will be recognized by the farmers of the country.” MEXICAN SLAYER TO DIE ‘The Mexican embassy was advised by sttem'gt: to save the doomed man, noti- embassy the fight had failed.
