No hypocritical begging of the question can obscure the plain fact that the influence of such a teacher at this, of all times, has been and would continue to be pernicious, g Unless the Teachers" Union desires to arouso suspicion and mistrust as to its own motives it will stop its defiant prating about teachers’ rights and consider the rights of the citizen taxpayers of New York, who"do not provide millions of dollars for its public schools with the understanding that the patriotism of the city’s children shall have no stronger stimulus than the sneering silence of some half-American instructor with secret alien leanings.
