Tho chief obstacles to tho progress Of
education in England are party spirit
and religious intolerance. Proposals for
educational reform are discussed and
decided, not in philosophical spirit,
but with all the acrimony Of partisans.
! Yet it is admitted that the case in u
very urgent one; that England il en-
gagged in "a struggle with her foreign
competitors not only for the supremacy
but even for the very existence of her
industries; that her workers are worse
instructed than their rivals and are on
that account going to the wall, and that
better education, both elementary and
technical, is vital to tho continuance of
her prosperity. It Is tho fact that in
both town and country elementary in
Btruction is so backward that, even if
adequate technical schools were provid-
cd, tho mass Of the people are untitled
To take full advantage of them. Yet, not
withstanding all this. English statesmen
will postpone reform indefinitely il they
can see their way to secure a party ad-
vantage thereby. The only hope is that
public opinion may appreciate before it
is too late the position Of education,
both elementary and technical, may be-
come agreed as to the direction in which
development ought to take place and
may force parliament and the govern
ment to grapplo with the difficulties
which have to be overcome. Right
