WICKED TEACHINGS ASSESSED
PUPILS FATHER HAS HARD
FIGHT FOR JUSTICE.
Instructor Gives Utterance to Anti
Religious, Anti-Patriotic and
Immoral Views.

Special Cable2ram 10 The Star.
PARIS. January 1S-rhe Dion court of
appeals has just given its decision in a
case which has created extraordinary in
terest in the district.
\ teacher of the local communal school.
named Morizot. was proceeded against by
NJ Girodet. father of one OF his pupils, for
having in mixed class of children, given
utterance to anti-religious, anti-patriotic
and grossly immoral teaching.
The defendant, in addressing his pupils
during school hours, is said to have de-
scribed the French army as band of ruff
fans: TO have contended that the Germans
were right In killing off during the war
in 1870 French infants in their cradles,
and to have characterized those who be-
lieved in God as being little better than
fools, adding that the only true God was
well filled purse. Morzot's doctrine on
the moral question is unfit for publication
The injured father first thought to have
this amazing teacher of the young pun
ished by administrative chiafs. The au-
deaf ear to his demand for redress. He
thereupon decided to take legal proceed
ings. NJ Girodet accordingly entered an
action. claiming 800 by way OF moral
and intellectual damages for the wrong
done to his son. lad OF tender years, by
this pernicious teaching.
The tribunal which heard the Gaze
showed itself unsympathetic. In an efo-
quent speech the advocate, replying to
the minister of justice, warned the court
Of the danger which might result If what
he termed "reactionary parents" were al
lowed to interfere with the teaching given
In French schools
The court decided it WAS incompetent
to hear the action. and said that the de-
PENDANTS utterances were. after all, mere
~ a matter of opinion, and that the case
was one for the educational authorities
themselves to settle. The project of the
department also interviewed and took these
views.
An appeal was lodged and again the
father was beaten. At last, in despera-
ton, he took his case before the tribunal
des conflicts. This body. after ordering
an inquiry with a view to ascertaining
If the charges were we'll founded, sent
the case back to the court of appeal with
order to adjudicate upon it.
Here the whole case was heard from the
beginning The court found the charges
proved, but reduced the damages to $40
and costs.
The president refused to order the in
sertion of the judgment in the newspa-
pers on the ground that it would be CIV
ing to the offense a penal aspect which
it did not deserve.
