HISTORY AS IT is TAUGHT.
Plea For Really Neutral Textbooks
In Every Country.

Plea For Really Neutral Textbooks
In Every Country.
History In every country is SO taught
as to magnify that country. Children
learn to believe that their own country
has been always In the right and al
most always victorious, that it has pro
duced almost all the great men and
that It Is In all respects superior TO
all other countries. Since these be-
hefs are fattering they are easily abb
sorbed and hardly ever dislodged from
Instinct by later knowledge.
To take simple and almost trivial
example: The facts about the battle of
Waterloo are known in great detail
and with minute accuracy. but the
facts as taught In elementary schools
win be widely different in England.
France and Germany. The ordinary
English boy imagines that the Prus-
slams played hardly any part; the or1i-
nary German boy imagines that Wei
hngton was practically defeated when
the day was retrieved by Blucher's gal
lantry. IL the facts were taught ac-
curately In both countries national
pride would not be fostered to the
same extent, neither nation would feel
50 certain Of victory in the event of
war and the willingness to fight would
be diminished.
1t Is this result which has to be pre-
vented. Every state wishes to foster
national pride and is conscious that
this cannot be done by unbiased his
tory.
The defenseless children are taught
by distortions and suppressions and
suggestions The false ideas as to the
history Of the world which are taught
In the various countries are of kind
which fosters strife and serves to keep
alive bigoted nationalism.
IL good relations between states were
desired one Of the first steps ought 70
be to submit all teaching Of history q
nan international commission which
should produce neutral textbooks free
Nfrom the patriotic bias which is now
demanded everywhere Bertrand Rus
