D. AiRi MAKES PLEA TOASSIST SCHOOLS Sociefy Says System Is Fac- ing “Greatest Crisis in History” of U. S. Declaring the public schools are “facing the greatest crisis in their his- tory,” because of the serious economic condition of the country, the Contin- ental Congress of the D. A. R. today reaffirmed its faith in “complete edu- cational opportunities as the birthright of every American child” and urged more adequate teaching of history and government in high schools. ‘The two resolutions were in full ac- eord with a patriotic educational pro- gram advocated by the present admin- istration of the D. A. R., which Mrs. Russell William Magna, president gen- eral, is stressing above all other issues. The first resolution urged upon the entire citizenry of the Nation the “continuance of public support, which is essential to the effective mainte- nance of our public schools.” It pointed out that one of the objects of the so- clety was to carry out the injunction of ‘Washington in his farewell address “to promote, as an object of primary im- portance, institutions, for the general diffusion of knowledge.” Committee Authorized. Pointing out that no people can en- dure without knowledge of and inter- est in their government, the congress went on record favoring the appoint- ment of a fact-finding committee to suggest necessary plans at the next an- nual congress for improvment in the courses of high schools and preparatory schools, whereby more stress might placed on American history and govern- ment. ‘These subjects are given inadequate sttention in the schools today, it was pointed out, for the chief reason that they are not obligatory in college en- grance board examinations. As one phase of this patriotic educa- WMon program, the congress indorsed tions for broadening the citizen ing developed in Florida by Ruth Owen, newly appointed Minister #o Denmark, who has brought school ohildren to Washington each year for their educational experience. A resolution also was adopted com- g the State Department “for continuance of its prompt and ly action in bringing about, through administration actions under existing law, the emergency exclusion of immigrants whose entry might ag- gravate existing conditions in this country.” 500,000 Aliens Turned Back. As a result of this prompt action, iover 500,000 aliens who normally would have immigrated into the United States to add complications in the face of 12,000,000 unemployed citizens, were refused immigration visas, the resolu- tion pointed out. Delgflgnes were balloting today on the seven candidates for vice president general placed in nomination by their respective State delegations lest night. With the withdrawal of the name of Mrs. Hoover H. Hanger of Washington, who is affiliated with the Benjamin Franklin Chapter of Paris, Prance, the single contest in the election was elimi- nated. This leaves a clear fleld for the election of Miss Helen Harman, former State regent of the District of Celumbia, as cne of the vice presidents general Mrs. Hanger, who is_in France, was removed by a technicality, in view of the fact she was sponsore bv a chapter and not by a State dele- tion, Im'l'he other candidates for the office, who will be elected today are: Mrs. James F. Trottman, Wisconsin; Mrs. Moward Bailey, Missouri; Mrs. John Carrol Coulter, South Carolina; Mrs. John W. Kirkpatrick, Kansas, and Mrs. Lue R. Spencer, Nebraska. “The delegates also were going through the formality of electing Mrs. John Laidlaw Buel, Connecticut, and Mrs. James T. Morris, Minnesota, to fill the two existing vacancies in the office of honorary vice presidents general. Loan Funds Extended. The Maryland Daughters have in- creased and extended the use of their student loan funds, Mrs. Henry Zoller, jr., State regent for Maryland, told in her Teport last evening. A total of 1,609 trees and shrubs have been planted by the Maryland members of the D. A. R. in the last year and $4,000 has been expended for 10 marl placed on highways, buildings and historic spots. ‘The indexing of "03‘;,‘}5 of 300 b{eua of Maryland _history soon com- leted under the direction of the State mermn, $6,000 having been spent for this purpose.
