Such, tn substance, is the state- ment contained in a lengthy report submitted by the citizens’ investigut- ing committes appointed recently to probe alleged immorality in the schools of Spokane, “We believe it in the first duty of every parent having a child in school to reqtire the child to report at its home immediately at the close of school,” says the report, “and that the parent should be there when the/ child reports, or tf It cannot be there, | should arrange for some responsible Person to represent the parent, so that the child will realize that before it can enter upon its play after school has closed its first imperative duty ts to go tmmegiately bome and report to the parent.” Summarized, the recommendations of the investigating committee are as follows: Finds no credible evidence of im- morality in Spokane high or grade schools, but the attention of the com- mittee has been directed to a number of cases of indiscretions and delin- quenctes outsides of school hours and away from school property in which school pupils were concerned.
