ASSERTS BILL
 IS ATTACK ON STATE'SPOWER

The Smith-Towner bill as an in strument to secure federal power over state plans for education was described and discussed by Miss Vic toria Iarmour, secretary of the Cath ollie Charitable bureau, at a meeting of the Bridgeport Teachers Associa- tIon held yesterday afternoon in the
 In beginning the talk Miss I.armour said that whenever a bill is intro duced supposedly for the betterment and welfare of the children of the country the public in general but more especially the women are thor ough1y in favor of it and believe that only wicked politicians could question or oppose it. on the contrary the purpose is meeting with somewhat unfayoraib1e comment even from the women.

The Smith-Towner bill would establish practically an autocratic control over states and community for all plans made by these units would have to be submitted to the depart ment for criticism and would have to be revised, probably completely changed if the federal body so wished it said Miss I&arn1Our.
 She cited federal control of educa- ton and it's failure in Germany and France. and said: "We read the edu- cational history of these countries only to find that history inevitably re- heats itself and wherever a federal body controls the schooling the latter is used as a useful tool of the gov ernnnent so handicapping it's free and snontaneous development and bring ing about its failure. The great glory of the democracy of the United States will continue to shine only so long as we keep a local control on matters which the individuals and not the government must decide and of which education is the best and foremost Dle.''
