SPLIT AMONG EDUCATORS
OVER TRADE TRAINING OR
CULTURE FOR CHILDREN

Overshadowing everything else in con-
nection with the meeting here this week
% the department Of superintendent
Of the National Education Association
is the war that Is being waged between
the two schools of thought on the ques-
ton of Industrial education. This is
the great problem before the school
superintendent. II has cropped out in
most Of the discussions. 1t is nowhere
near a settlement, nor is there any pros
pect that IL win be settled for two OF
three years. perhaps not for much long
er.
On the one hand stand those that
insist the child should be trained to
become proficient IN some trade, TO
learn the use of his hands, TO go out
into the world and MAKE mis- living. The
advocates of such training place effl-
Cieut Industrial education foremost.
They do not subscroe TO the theory
that the essential element in education
for the ordinary child Is culture. On
the other hand stands the school of
educators. who believe that at the basis
of the education Of every child stands
the idea Of culture, that every child
should receive a certain degree OF cul-
tAA d tAAAalAll6s anu LllHAt lkl4unlElal lIhlu-
ing properly can and should follow upon
this foundation.
Roosevelt Caught in MaelstTom.
Ever since the meeting assembled
here the first OF the week the air has
been buzzing with discussion OF this
subject. President Roosevelt himself
was drawn into it when he spoke TO the
teachers Wednesday afternoon He
gravitatsd to the side of those that are
pushing to force the idea OF Industrial
training TO the exclusion OF culture. BY
so doing he drew on himself sharp dis
approval from those who are op-
posed 10 going, as they regard it. TO
extremes in Industrial training.
The President told the supcrintendents
in substance that every boy should be
taught TO make a living and every girl
should be taught TO make a home He
placed the hobo at one end OF the scale
and the idle rich IN the same category
and said he had no more respect for
the one than for the other

TANNEY VICTORIOUS
IN COMMITTEE TILT
Ways and Means Body Must
Move to New
Quarters.
Clash Result of Request of
Representative Who AS
signs Offices.

James NJ Tawney Of Minnesota stands
before the country today as chairman
OF the most powerful and influential
committee in the House OF Represent
atives, for the Committee on Appropria-
lions is now recognized as the head
Of the list, while the Committee on
Ways and Means has lost the prestige
il so long enjoyed.
This change is the direct result of
the defeat Of the Committee on Ways
and Means yesterday when It tried 10
get through the House a resolution that
its quarters should not be changed from
the Capitol 20 the new House onice
building.
Decides Committee Must Move.
Mann of Illinois, who has charge Of
the allotment of space in the rear
rangement Of offices and committee
rooms, has decided that Ways and
Means must move. Supporting him in
This, the members of the Appropriations
Committee made a hot fight on the floor
Of the House.
The result was that the Committee on
Appropriations and Mr.. Mann won by
a vote OF three 10 one, and Ways and
quarters next to the House chamber
while the Committee on Appropriations
retains its rooms next 10 the chamber.
But, while the defeat OF Ways and
Means yesterday was the final blow,
IL is q fact that for the last ten years
the prestige and Importance of Ways
and Means has been on the wane. while
the authority and weight of Appropria-
tons has been on the upward trend.

For instance. it was originally the
privilege and duty OF the chairman of

at the beginning Of every session the
statement Of the estimated revenues for
the ensuing fiscal year and to make a
forecast Of what policy must be pursued
TO meet the revenues and keep the ex-
penditures OF the Government within
its resources. Now, however, the man
who makes this statement is Chairman
Tawney, of Appropriations.
Since the Dingley tariff law was
framed, Ways and Means has been on
the decline, partly because il would not
exercise all its prerogatives, and partly
because the members Of the House
scrambled for places on Appropriations.

asserted its powers az every opportunity.
