Readjusting Education

George D. Strayer, professor of educational
administration at Columbia University, speak
ing before the National Educational association,
said he believed that the teachers of the nation
must bring about new educational program that
will harmonic with the new spirit OF the age
An abstract of his address follows:
We have long been committed in the United
States to the principle of universal free public
education. That we have not yet realized the
ideal embodied in this principle is matter of
common knowledge. But few Americans realize
how far short we have fallen. The army tests
indicated twenty per cent of illiteracy among our
adult population. One man out of every three
was found to be physically unfit for general mill
tary service. Hundreds of thousands of foreign
ers who live among us have had no opportunity
for that kind of education which would enable
them to understand government nor have
they had provided for them the instruction which
might lead to understanding of our ideals.
Only those children who live in the more favored
communities have any adequate educational OPP
portunity.
,, Millions of Americans, boys and girls, are
being taught during six months school term by
boy and girl teachers who have less than high
school education The great majority of our
children receive education beyond fourteen
years of age. It is matter of common knowledge
that ideals and purpose which govern in life are
commonly developed after fourteen and we know
that the intellectual maturity required to under
stand the principles underlying republican
| form of government is not developed before that
age.
The future of our American democracy de-
ponds upon recognition of the necessity of de-
veloping the United States a system of public
education: % which will remove illiteracy
| CO which will provide for the Americanizaton of
every foreigner who would continue to live among
u.s. 90 which will include program of physical
education and health service, providing for every
boy and girl an opportunity for normal physical
growth and development, (4 which will guaran-
! tee sufficient support for public education to
make possible we'll equipped school in which
properly trained and adequately paid teacher will
teach for minimum of one hundred and eighty
days in the year. (5) which will make compulsory
! education to eighteen years of age on full time,
for boys and girls until sixteen years of age, and
on part time, in daylight hours, on the employ
ers time for those who work between sixteen and
: eighteen years of age.
The responsibility for educating fellow
citizens with respect to the shortcomings of our
: school system and Of enlisting their support in
the development of program of education which
l will make good the promises Of our democracy,
, rests upon profession.
r We may not hope to meet responsibility
} except as organize our profession in such a
7 way as to make effective in our states and in
!, public school system.
