JUDGE PBENBERGHAoT, Of Chicago
in an extensive review Of the recent ed
vocational laws Of Wisconsin and Illinois
as published in Tuesdays HERALD says:
II venture to say that the opposition to
the sO-called Bennett law Of Wisconsin
IS directed against what that law is be-
lieved to be rather than against what it
is, and the Bennett Law is replete
with provisions recognizing and guard
ing parental rights, and at the same
time it accords to the state recognition
Of its proper function Where a iurist
Of recognized ability residing ID another
state, and writing on the educational
laws Of that state. pays such homage to
oar, in some instance despised, Bennett
Law. what can be said of the man Of
letters who deliberately opposes it on
the ground that it violater parental
rights and exceeds state iurisdic-
tom The reference to the Bennett
law was simply through their being
enacted almost simultaneously with
those Of Illinois, and to show the defects
oh the Illinois statutes.
