Special to The World


PHILADELPHIA, July 4-The
great Fourth OF July splash of Amer
lean ships which Charles NJ. Schwab,
director general Of the emergency
fleeto corporation, said would re-
echo in thGsears of the German EN-
peror. took place today as planned
by the shipbuilders of the United
States. From one minute after 12
o'clock last night until late today
cargo carriers and other type of
vessels were sent overheard in every
part of the country to help build
the ocean bridge for the allied
fighting forces in Europe.
Incomplete reports gave the num-
ber of vessels sent overheard as 52,
OF which 33 were steel and the
other 10 wood.
These figures do not include the
launching of naval vessels which are
being built directly under the su-
pervision OF the navy department
The exact number of launchings
probably will not be known until to-
morrow. The union plant OF the
Bethlehem Steel corporation made
worlds record by launching A.
500 deadweight tons, represented by
four ships in one yard in one day.
A second record was broken by this
plant by building one of the ships,
the Defiance, a 1900 ton boat in
3S days. lmm ediately after the
launching six keels were laid, max
ing third record
The largest boat launched was the
Indianapolis, 1860 tons, at the
Pusey and Jones yard, Gloucester.

PRESIDENT WILSON
FOR WARTIME SCHOOLS

President Wilson urges generous
support for schools of all grades dur
ing war time. In letter to Secretary
Lane approving the Bureau of Educa-
tion's plan for an educational cam
paign this summer and fall he says:
Il am pleased to know that despite
the unusual burdens imposed upon our
people by the war they have main
tanned their schools and other agencies
of education so nearly at their nor
NAL efficiency. That this should be
continued throughout the war and
that, in so far as the draft law will
permit, there should be no falling off
in attendance in elementary schools,
high schools or colleges is a matter of
the very greatest Importance, affecting
both our strength in war and our ma
tional welfare and efficiency when the
war is over. So long as the war con-
tinues there will be constant need Of
very large numbers of men and women
of the highest and most thorough
training for war service in many lines.
After the war there will be urgent need
not only for trained leadership in all
lines of industrial. commercial and
civic life, but for a very high average
of intelligence and preparation on the
part of all the people. / would there
fore urge that the people continue to
give generous support TO their schools
of all grades and that the schools adj
Just themselves as wisely as possible
to the new conditions to the end that
no boy or girl shall have less oppor-
tunity for education because of the
war and that the Nation may be
strengthened as it can only be through
I the right education Of its people. l
approve most heartily your plans for
making through the Bureau of Educa-
tion a comprehensive campaign for
the support of the schools and for the
maintenance of attendance upon them,
and truse that you may have the CO.
operation in this work Of the American
Council of Education"

MARRIED TEACHERS
ARE CALLED BACK
Commissioner OF Education Appeals
For Their Return To
Schools

Repeal the married teacher regu-
lation." says Dr. p p Claxton, U. S.
Commissioner of Education
Reports from some cities indicate
that few school boards have not vet
taken action to abolish the rule bar
ring married women from teaching.
This rule never did have much to rec
ommend it. and the war has made it
impossible to enforcement Every
woman who is a good teacher is need
ed, and marriage is no bar"
One teacher writes to the Bureau
of Education: Il wish to~call your
attention to situation which prevails
throughout the Middle West and urge
your influence to remedy this injus-
tice. AS you know, most of the large
cities will not employ married women
as teachers in the high schools. AS
you also know, the War Department
has placed in Glass | all men whose
wives are educated to earn a living
Many of these women were teachers
in the larger high schools. These po-
sitions are now closed 10 us and we
must teach in a small town-several
subjects in which we are indifferently
prepared-at a small wage-all be-
cause we have husbands who are Civ
ing themselves in answer to their
country's call. Is this exactly fair?
Kansas City, Mo, Kansas City. Kans.,
Topeka, Kans., and many other cities
have courtesously returned all appli-
cations saying they employ no mar
ried women"
For the information of school boards
that may not have seen Commissioner
Claxton's statement of March s, 1918,
appealing to married teachers to re-
turn to schools, the Bureau is asking
that the following paragraph be re-
printed: There are in the country
scores of thousands of persons, most
ly women, of good scholarship and
professional training, who have had
successful experience as teachers, but
who have retired from active service.
Many of these might render valuable
service again in the school AS a
means of relief in the present crisis,
l recommend that they be called again
into active service and that laws, or
dinances, and regulations of school
boards prohibiting married women
from teaching in the public schools be
suspended or repealed"

WORLD BROTHERHOOD
FOR HUMANITY SAKE

Baltimore may feel a righteous
amount of pride in the organization Of
a local Committee of the American
Humane Education Society, says the
Baltimore Star. The propaganda
sent out by this organization is far
reaching. Its successful extension
goes far to show that the neglect and
maltreatment of dumb brutes are TO
be assigned not TO mate cruelty but
TO apathy and ignorance. Once man
kind is aroused 10 the possibilities for
suffering which exist in every senti-
ment organism, a higher and finer
spirit of protection and kindliness viii
be involved. A World Brotherhood"
is one OF the ideals which it is hoped
will be made effectual when the werld
fermentation has subsidized. To include
dumb creatures in this brotherhood
would make the scheme of things not
complex but far more harmonious. 1t
is to such an end that the American
Human Society is sending it's message
TO every corner of the globe. II makes
practical suggestions to the individual
who wishes to cooperate, suggestions
which come within the power even of
those who have te least leisure. To
join a society which pledges its pro
lection of animals from cruelty which
comes within ones notice; TO refuse
to witness trained animal perfor-
mances," and to explain without hest
tation ones motives for such an atti-
tude: to discourage all blood sports
and rigidly abstain from taking any
part in them-such are a few Of the
means by which marked increase of
self-respect indicate to his less
thoughtful companions his adherence
of all that is brutal and barbaric.
The education of children in the
fundamentals of humanity is, of
course, one of the most constructive
measures which can possibly be taken,
not merely for the protection of ami
mails but for the development of those
finer qualities which have lain dor
mant for too long time in western
civilization
Much, incidentally, might be learn
ed OF world brotherhood" from our
oriental neighbors. India has popu-
lation of over three millions-and it is
a well-known fact that these people
have consistently refused to become
meateaters on the ground that such
practice would encroach upon the har-
monious relations which has always
existed in India between man and
beast. Science in these later times is
coming to confirm, by careful dag
nosis, many beliefs which these sim
pier folks evolved instinctiyely. La
boratory experiments have shown time
and again that the fear and anger
aroused in animals prepared for
slaughter create poisons which make
many of the meats unfit for human
consumption. Each individual must
of course arrive at his own conclus-
ions on these subjects.
1t might be well to realize, how
ever, that while in the beginning of
things man was given dominion over
the lesser creations, his misuse of the
power given him is rather frightful
commentary upon his dictatorship.
