PHYSICAL TRAINING
NEEDED FOR YEARS
BY PETER p. CARNEY


We may be Just a wee bit ahead OF
the times when we shout from house
tops that in the course Of a few more
years there will be a Director OF Ply
steal Education in the Cabinet OF the
President OF The United states.
There has been need for such a csbi-
net officer for years The late un-
pleasantries with the Huns showed
wherein this country was lacking This
saes Of a National Department OF
Physical Education Is not new one.
We heard James f. sullivan talk about
n 10 years ago. 70 was one OF the
things that Sullivan hoped 10 put over
and II ne had lived you could have
wagered your last cent that there
would be such department on the
United states payrols today.
A Department Of Physical Training
IS Just as necessary as a Department
of Agriculture. Labor. Mines. etc. Red
bl0oded boys and girls cannot be de-
veloped 40 pink teas. They must be
developed I'm the open. The body must
be developed at the same time a. the
brain. All children should receive the
for the work that is in front q them.
and this physical education should be
National, hence a National Department.
The work OF the National Depart
ment on Physical work would In a
great measure be for the schools and
colleges but there IS no reason what
soever that it shouldn't-end would be
followed by clubs and individuals.
The National Director should be re-
sponsible for the building up Of our
citlzenary-for the better we ar.
equipped 70 nght our way through life
The happier will be our homes and
families.
Outdoor sports will take care Of
themselves IN the long run because
more people are taking TO them an the
time. With a National Department 10
direct The work II would be much
easier and better. 70 is the sportlike
irapshOolng and golf-that have no
beacher that are gaining so much
these days.
At the recent meeting OF the Physi-
cal Research Society. Or. r. \. storey
Of the College Of the City OF New
York and State Inspector OF Physical
Training had that body go on record
ss approving a National Department
OF PHYSICAL Education. and word was
sent TO Congress and the President OF
the action Of the body.
10 would be well for all organlza-
tions interested I'm the development OF
The United States TO take the same ac-
tion ss did the research society and
keep the matter before Congress.

clared to be Chairman Frear's effort to
testify for him. II never knew of a

ing"
Frear, in the form of a question as
to facts, had suggested that West, while
in Washington, d., G., had secured the
removal of George S. Long from the

Grear said that che was secretary of

be like taking candy from & baby"
West, assured by Congressman Magee
that he would be allowed to present his

had advised the secretary of wal not
only against the appointment of Long,
but against the retention of Russell
Hawkins as lumber adviser to Bfiee P.

pany, which had timber to sell to the
