SPEAKERS DISCUSS
 EDUCATIONAL TOPICS
Harneny Prevails d Conference Of
 National Education Association.

St. Paul, Minn., July 8.-With har- mony in the ranks of the National Educational association assured as a result of the withdrawal from the presidential race last night of Dr. David B. Johnson of Rock Hill, s. C., and l.. R. Alderman of Portland, Ore, in favor of Dr. David Starr Jordan, the convention today put aside politi- cal activity and held thirty-two meet ings for the discussion of educational topics.
 Committees reported and speakers discussed salaries, mental tests for children, school gardens, use of nov ing pictures in schools, sex hygiene and other problems.
 Segregation Is Recommended.
 Segregation of mentally defective children was recommended in a pa- per read by pr. Franklin w. Barrows of Buffalo, N. Y., state medical in- spector of schools, before the depart ment of special education.
 Children who are teachable-ah those above the stage of idiocy- should be gathered into special classes under expert teachers" Dr. Barrows said. Children not in schools should be inspected regularly by experts. The home life of subnormal and ab- normal children often suppresses the little mentality that they possess.
 Occupies Strategic Position.
 'The school occupies a strategic position, with every facility for the discovery of these unfortunate cases. No other agency can do what tho school can tic for tkc prevention of the evil results tha. flow from dn- recogn'zed and un.reatei mental de- linquency."
 That moving pictures are destined to revolutionize the present method of teaching was the contention Of speakers at a meeting devoted to the discussion of their use. They said that motion pictures give visuality and quicken the imagination of the child to far greater degree in few minutes time than the text book would in days of study.
 Disapprove Several Organizations.
 Representatives of smaller schools are behind a resolution which is be- fore the committee on resolutions, disappearing of the Sage Foundation, the Carnegie Foundation, the various Rockefeller boards and similar organ- izations and the board for the pen sioning of teachers in the big educa- tional institutions.
