Changes Worldwide
Speaking on Education and the
New World Order" DIR. william
Chandler Bagley, professor of edu-
cation, at Columbia University, says
chat an educational renaissance is
now appearing in America. Eng
land and France have recently pass
ed laws radically changing their
educational laws, and the effects of
these are now being felt in this
country. While our great public
school system has been operating
more or less under a national pro-
gram during the continuance of
the war, we must remember that 1t
is not national system, DIR. Bag
ley warns, sounding the alarm that
we must have a national program
of education or without 1t we will
not be consistent with what we have
done during the war.
At the evening session, DR.. 8. e.
Weber. of Scranton, president of the
state association spoke on Some
Aspects of Americanism. Not, by
any MEANS" he declared, 1.-The least
| important result of the great war
is the clarity it has brought to our
definition of -Americanism. Before
America was put to the test in the
crucible of war, our notion of Amer
icanism was very similar to our no
ton of a large valise filled with a
! multiplicity of articles. unrelated,
unclassified, undetermined" All this
has been changed, he declared.
Lack of the knowledge Of the
English language was serious han
dicap in securing the highest grade
of industrial efficiency during the
war, President Weber told. Should
not, he questioned, the English Ian
guage be the language of instruction
in all schools and be the chosen
medium of expression of the entire
country.
But that is only an essential ve-
neer, Mr.. Weber asserted. Things
more fundamental must be uncover
ed. In addition to the education OF
the youths in the school, the adults
must be eoucationed in the Eng
lish language and all Of the foreign
born must be taught of their duties
and responsibilities.
