SCHOOLS
WILSON URGES
Build Them Now, Secretary of
Labor Says, Rather
Than Later
BY WILLIAM B. WILSON.
United States Secretary of labor

Education is the bulwark of Amer
lean liberty.
The public school is the fortress of
education.
Surveys made by the United States
department of Labor, through its di-
vision of public work and %construc-
ton development, show hat this
country is far behind its needs in
modern school buildings. The educa-
ton of u children is not a plaything
to be k UP one moment and cast
aside the next.
Effective instruction of children
must be regular and systematic. Any
other kind is next to useless. Regular
attendance at school is as necessary
to education as regular meals are to
life, and prope sanitary conditions in
the schoolhouse are absolutely essen
tial to training the young mind
Fresh air, light, heat, Fairgrounds
are companions OF textbooks in i'm
parting knowledge to the young.
Modern science demands that children
be given modern care to develop their
intelects. School buildings which do
not embrace these necessaries to
proper training should be abandoned.
School buildings should be the chief
object Of civic pride. Tax rates, bond
issues, financial bugaboos of every
kin should be thrust aside when the
building of a new school Is VI for dis
cussion. None of these can outweigh
in importance the value of education
to the child mi to the country.
Many of the old school buildings
are useless for their purposes. The
iced of the times is for more new
school buildings everywhere. Reports
say that in many places the children
are crowded and herded so that effec-
tive education is almost impossible,
because the thoughts Of the pupils
are constantly distracted from their
work. The result Of such a system
will surely be half-baked intellects
and inefficient men and And
that, in turn. will mean national de-
cadence.
The working people are vitality con-
cerned in this school building ques-
ton. IL is their children who are the
pupils of the public schools. 1t is
their children who will suffer through
the neglect of u system of educa-
ton. 1t is their children who will not
be properly equipped for the battle
of life. Then the slogan OF the work.
ing people should be:
"Build new schools"
II we DOM build them now we
shall have to pay heavily for our fail
ure to do so in the future.

They propose the establishment of
a permanent labor bureau within the
league of nations. with inspectors and
courts to expose, and perhaps penalize
through the league every violation of
the conventions.
The plan presupposes the RESPONSE

British laborites are emphasizing
the permanent bureau idea and are

NEW YORK.-The greatest holiday
crowd in the history of New York
packed Fifth avenue from dawn I'M
til evening yesterday bent on see
ing. or at least getting within cheer
ing distance of the 9th division S
home coming parade.
The historic avenue, as we'll as all
cross streets, was one surging mass
of struggling humanity - jostling,
struggling, crushing and on occasions
trampling fallen members in a wild
scramble to get nearer their heroes.
Three persons were killed, nearly 100
were taken to hospitals or homes to
recuperate and hundreds more nursed
bruises.
10000 Policemen Baffled.
Although the crowds were good
natured, they absolutely refused to
obey the 10000 struggling policemen.
Flying wedges of police automobiles
and mounted patrolmen charged the
masses, blowing narrow paths which
frequently were closed as soon as
the wedges had passed. More than
100 women and children were caught
in brushes and more or less seriously
injured.
The scenes OF confusion which at
tended the parade from start to fin
ish first became serious at Madison
square, where the entire street was
blocked. The parade was compelled
to halt for a time while the police
bored narrow passageway through
which the troops passed. Other seri-
Gus breaks occurred in the police lines
at 34th, 42nd and 59th streets, but !
perhaps the widest scenes of confu-
sion occurred at Parkway circle, 10th |
street, where the line of march ter
