Strayer of Columbia uni- versity said in presenting to the na- tlonal educational association the re- port of its legislative commission “The federal government should as- sist the states in remedying existing defects in our educational system. Buch aid from the federal govern- ment is justified by the very nature ©f our democracy. “If we are to be fair to those who come from other lands and if we are to preserve American institutions it is of the utmost importance that a program of education which will pro- vide for the Americanization of the foreign born be developed through- out the nation. “A large percentage of teachers in | American public schools have neither the education nor the professional training necessary for efficient serv- fce. It is estimated shat there are 30,000 teachers in the United States who have no education beyond that furnished in a one-teacher rural ele- mentary school. “For the whole of the United States not more than 25 per cent of the teachers hold licenses which require two years professional training beyond High school education, a standard which has been acknowled2zd as proper minimum preparation for teaching in the elementary schools.” Newspaper Reading. Courses in newspaper reading in the schools of the country are advo- | eated by O. S. Rice, supervisor of school libraries in Madison, Wis.,, He advanced his theory in an address prepared for today's meeting. 1570 20 MILLION ISL0SS IN DUBLIN Warfare Costly-Many People . Forced Out of Work Dublin, July 6.—Casualties in yes- terday’s fighting so far as city hospi- tals show were, one killed and 16 ‘wounded. ‘'For the eight days of the fighting in Dublin, the casualties are given as 61 dead and 259 wounded, not includ- -ing four snipers shot dead and the\ wounded taken prisoners. The material loss to Dublin is very| heavy. The value of the buildings de- | stroyed is estimated at between 3,000,, | 000 and 4,000,000 pounds, while the .destruction means loss of large sums in rentals and considerable unem. ployment. According to the Irish Independent, | ‘ Richard Barton, afterwards arrested in the Childers home, was a partici- pant In the Sackville street fighting and escaped from. the stronghold with | Mr. De Valera. .. Describing yesterday's surrender, this - newspaper notes remarkable scenes that followed, when prisoners, fncluding two women were marched to armored cars. Enormous crowds eollected and there were some dem- | enstrations especially on the part of .the youthful element. Some of the | male prisoners were dressed only in shirts and trousers and looked battle ‘worn. Commenting on the outcome of the fighting the Irish Times today says “The country has spoken twice through its army. If the leaders of the lost cause will accept that two- fold verdict now they will not find any temper of vindictiveness in the men who were their brothers yester- day. The submission, however, must be unqualified and complete.” LOCAL GIRL FORGER Rose Abrahamson, Who Claims That She is a Native of This City, Awaits Sentence in New York Tombs.
