the deliberate purpose to interfere with

How misguided some of our people
are. Recognizing that reimbursement must
be made, they believe that they will fare
better If they cast their fortunes with
those with whom they dealt on the
base of campaign contributions in days
gone by. They do not sense the dangers
that threaten. The sort of readJustment
which will appeal to our self-respect and
ultimately to our general prosperity, IS
the honest reimbursement. Any unfair adj
justment simply delays the ultimate

Judgment, under oath. in the performance
OF those duties.
There must be an awakened interest
IN education. The assumption that
things are all right is an error There
is more or less of a general idea that
because our school system generally is
satisfactory, and ia most instances ex-
celent, that sufficient progress IS being
made.
The plain fact reveals two startling
things, one, growing defamation In the
ranks Of teachers and the other, the ex-
istence of five and half million iIlit-
crates. IL Ia true that 100000 of these
are foreign born. The army of insfruc-
tors has been more or less demoralized
through financial temptation from other
activities which pay much better. We
owe too much 10 the next generation to
be remiss In this matter. Very satisfac-
tory progress Is being made In several
states in the teaching of native born
illiterates. The moonlight school In Ken
lucky has, In fact become a historic In
stitntton. The practice has spread into
other commemorative. and bands Of
noble men and women are rendering
great service. There should he no en-
croachment by the federal government
