NEW CENTURY CLUB
HEARTILY ENDORSES
STATE SCHOOL CODE
Pierre S. du Pont and DIR. Samuel
Chiles Mitchell Address a
Large Audience.
WILLIAM M. CONNELLY
ASKS FEW QUESTIONS

Approval OF the School Code was ex-
pressed by an audience that throngcd the
auditorium of the New Century Club last
night The assembly was composed OF
persons who attended q meeting held by
the clubs educational committee. MIS-.
Robert b. Rayncr, president OF the ciuo,
presided and Pierre >. du font, vice
president of the State Board oi Education,
and DR.. Samuel Chiles Mitchell, presi-
dent of Delaware College, made addresses
Both speakers were enthusiastically ap-
plauded.
MIR. du Pont said the code is not good as
a whole. nor bad as whole, and should
be considered in detail. 1t was in pro $
of formation for two years. Its provisions
are not entirely new, being identical in
MANY respects 20 law drafted by the
University of California. 4 few obiec-
tions have been made after eight months
ANALYSIS. 1t should not be rejected, but
may be amended
Outlining the chief objections. Mr.. iu
Pont referred to the iStl-dav school term,
which he said is not undulv oncrous
The term formerly was l40 days. but
unfortunately the Law was not strictly
enforced. In recent years the average
term has been S. days for white children
and SO DAYS for colored children The
lO-laY Term Il SuDlecJ 10 exceptions,
the State Board of Education excusing
children in eases Of necessity. Eighty
fivc per cont of the children IN Kent
county attended school during September
and - per cent during October: So per
cent OF the children in sussex county were
At school both months. This showed
that not more than 3 per cent Of the
children had 10 stay home
Mir du pont cited objection concerning
school committees Under the old law
rhe 100 school districts had POO commit
tecmen and $50 teachers. lie said the
committeeman had nothing to do under
the old system except 70 meet twice year
FOR the purpose Of collecting taxes and
planning for reelection The old State
Board OF Education possessed four powers,
but formulated few rules. Confusion
Is prevented by the code The new State
Board Of Education does its work like
the directors OF q private corporation.
