BLAMES TEACHERS
President James of University
of Illinois Says Poorest
Ones Are Here.
OTHER NATIONS AHEAD
Nowhere Else Is There So Little
Training as in Rural Districts
and Villages.

st. Paul, Nov. 4.-Denouncing the
condition of American education as
national reproach, President E. ].
James of the University of Illinois,
startled the members of the Minnesota
teachers association, in session here
yesterday.
In no civilized country" declared
the Illinois educator with emphasis,
are the teachers in the rural districts
of the nation as a whole. and for that
matter in many villages and towns, SO
unframed and unskilled, with so little
experience or fitness for the work, as
| is the case in the United States of
America
Has n Remedy.
I And President James has remedy
1t is to make education national
function, with a secretary of education
as a member of the cabinet and with
/ vast federal appropriations of money.
The following would be the result ac-
cOrding to President James predic
ton:
''If the nation would give its atten-
ton earnestly to the matter of estab
fishing such a school system as should
in every section of the country find
out the natural abilities of its children
and then assist in developing them TO
the highest possible degree of trained
efficiency, an era of national expan-
sion, national development, national
/ influence, of the increase of national
wealth would dawn upon us such as
the world has not thus far dreamed
Of"
Other Indictments.
Two other leading points in the in
dictment drawn by President James
are:
In no other nation claiming to he
civilized is there so large a population
in such educational degradation as the
American negro.
In no other great civilized nation
are there so many worthy members of
the community in such ignorance and
with such meager educational advan-
tages as the poor whites" of the
mountainous districts of the south and
the inhabitants of similar regions at
the north
