Pre; London, Sept. 25.—The surpri revelation that at least one-: sing of ixth England’s six million school children are “so physically or mentally defec- \d as to be incapable of benefit from the | tive or diseas | deriving | cducation which the state provides’ | is made in a report just issued by the chief medical officer of the board of education. The report has est and has come as a shock to the public generally. The Manchester Guardian that the report ‘“‘should awalken fe s to the nation’s future as sharply as would news of a reascnable ou: d great inter- trous defeat of our arms.” It makes the point that the waste referred to is preventable and that while it is being lessened by better housing, bet- | ter labor conditions and purer and cheaper food, together with ampler medical facilities and sounder ideas | in education and hygiene, that “the nation moves with incredible slow- ness.” Sir George Newman, the chief med- ical officer, at the conclusion of his report, indicates that a complete scheme is now practically ready that will enable the state to take entire che e of the child, menially, phy | | cally and morally, with a view to pre- | re- venting in fature a repetition of ports disappointing as that issued. The transformation is to compished through the aid of sev- agencies. The local education ties, through their school med- have cstablished a s tion. nur: as i eral autho; ical service tem of remedy and amelior ucotion committees, docto and thousands of voluntary es workers compose a co-perative system designed to save the child. The system is to ex- tend from schools for mothers to the home and from welfare centers to ju- | venile employment. In his report Sir George Newman “Eight years work has brought light a large mass of physical defect { and disease, varied in character and widespread, most of it preventible. Tn not less than a quarter of a million children are seriously crippled, inval- ided, or disabled; not less than a mil- lion school children are so physically or mentally defective or diseased as to be unable to derive reasonable bene- fit from the education which the state provides. If this figure be considered, cuffering and premature death en- tailed, it will be seen tha the state i not getting adequate returns, on phy sical unds alone, for a substantial part of its expenditure on elementary education.” “Consideration of the situation seems to indicate that the physical welfare, and in part the education, of the childof school age is dependent up- on ante-school conditions; and de- pendent also upon post-school condi- tions.
