CAN SEGREGATE NEGRO
PUPILS. DIRECTORS LEARN
Member of State Education Board
Makes Statement at Meting.

mdheS statement at netting.
YOUNGSTOWN, Oct. 29.-The question
| of sesregating Negro children in public
schools was brought up today at the 51st
session of the School Directors Associa-
ton of Montgomery County when dIrec-
tor asked whether Negro children could
be separately taught.
The question was answered by James
NJ Coughlin. superintendent of the
Wilkes-Barre schools and a member of
the State Board of Education. He said
there was nothing in the school code to
prevent the building of a school for the
instruction of Negro children or their
being taught separately, providing they
were given the same surroundings and
the identical teaching as the white chill
dren.
A discussion on "Is the Trend of Public
School Work, Looking to the Future. Cor
rect?" was opened by the Rev. George
Lutz, Pennsburg. ]. Vincent Policy. of
Royersford. objected to the introduction
of fads in the school. He said there were
no royal roads to learning and no short
cuts to knowledge. When a director from
Hatboro asked how to run a school which
required sll,OO0 on $9OO0 William Byrnes
of Lower Merton. replied that the only
way to do that was to increase the tax
rate. Too many directors are afraid to
do this for fear OF defeat" said Mr.
Byrnes This you need not be afraid of
If you give the taxpayers value for the
money"
Resolutions were adopted on the death
Of j. Arthur Mcfarland, of Gulf Mills,
killed in an automobile accident a few
weeks ago. He was vice president of the
association. His place was filled by the
Rev S. L. Messenger, Trappe. j. Howard
Ervien was reelected president. the Rev.
N B. Schmidt. secretary, and Frank S.
Brant, treasurer.

Elder Wood and | went to London,
Tuesday, but the war has closed the
museums and but few places of
amusements were open. The historic
Tower of London is being used as a
recruiting station. While there
thought It best to get a passport, but
when we went to the American Con-
sol, there were hundreds of Ameri-
cans ahead of us awaiting their turns.
Some Of them had paper money which
cannot be used here.
Some rich Americans dubbed to-
gether and bought ship. They had
few more berths than they need
