new HISTORY
WILL PUT SOFT
PEDAL ON WAR
Supt. Chadsey Tells of Work to
be Issued by American School
Peace League
DECISION REACHED IN
MEETING IN NEW YORK
Emphasis Will Be Placed On the
Portrayal Of Socitl and Indus
trial Development

Supt. OF Schools Charles e. Chad
sey. who returned this week from at
tending a meeting of the historical
committee Of the American School
Peace league, New York city, says
that a new school history of the Uni
ted States Is soon to be issued under
the auspices of that committee, OF
which he is a member. The aim Of
the new work, he said, Is to put the
soft pedal" on war; to get away from
the study of history from purely po-
litical viewpoint, and the arbitrary
division OF II into administrations.
Instead, the emphasis will be placed
upon the life OF the people as a
whole, as portrayed in the social and
industrial development of the country.
Following the revolution, the history
will be treated in six periods. The
first, to be known az the Critical
period" will cover the years from
1883 to 1889; the second, or Era of
economic independence" from 1889
to 1920; third, "The period of indus
trial expansion" from 1920 to 1850;
fourth, Slavery and the Civil war,
1890 to 1865; NTH, The rec0nstruc-
ton period" from 1866 to 1878, and
sixth. "The struggle for social and
economic Justice" from 1875 to the
present time.
Such a plan of study, asserts Mr..
Chadsey. will give school children a
much clearer insight into the real de.
velopment Of this country and a bet.
ter basis for the understanding of
present-day conditions and problems.

Continue Fight Against the
Proposed Extension

Aid. Reid. of the Fifteenth ward,
of the vote by which the resolution au-
thorizing the extension of the Michi-
gan-ave. car line to the new Michigan
Central depot, was voted down In the
council last Tuesday evening. The
resolution was defeated, after a
lengthy debate, by vote Of Is to IA.
Aid. Reid, in explaining his reason for
fling a reconsideration, said that he
did not thoroughly understand the sit
patiSn.
The west side aldermen, who are op-
posed TO any depot extension plan
that does not include the Fourteenth
line, will continue their fight when
the matter again comes up.
Il, for one, will fight the ID. u. X.
scheme to make even-for-a-quarter
line out of the Fourteenth line by re-
fusing to lay few blocks OF track, .
said Aid. Littlefield. IF the Four
teenth line is not extended to the
depot on the old Pingree fare basis,
1t will mean that people living along
some 60 miles OF three-cent tracks
will have 10 pay the higher rate of
fare to reach the depot. This howl.
ing about the city being up against
IL and unable to continue the fight In
this matter, makes me sick. Recent
ly the city officials have given the l.
preston that they are willing 10 back
down from any old stand, That's
not my idea of dealing with matters
of such vital interest to the general
public. The Michigan Central does
not need that extension so badly that
the city is compelled to give away
the peoples rights. II Aid. Reid's re
consideration carries, will be great
