 COURSES NOT MANUAL TRAINING

Washington, Sept I5.-The general popular discussion of vocational edu- cation has been uninformed and su- perfcial, says William T. Bawden of the bureau of education in a pam phlet issued by the bureau.
 The real estate promoter" said MT. Bawden, may be excused for referring to a junior high school man. ual arts department as trade school and to handiwork in the ele- mentary grades as vocational courses and for listing them as such among the assets of community, but the magazine writer or newspaper ed itor who essays this basis shows clearly his incompetence of the task"
 It is stated that the function of vo- cational education "is, obviously, to train skilled workers in a definite oc- cupation. This should parallel the general education, so that while the student is receiving a degree of gen era1 education for the business of 1iv- ing with his fellows, he is also acquir- ing the skills, speeds and habits of thought needed for success in the trade or occupation studied.
 "The functions of manual training are more general in character. It should give some skill in the use of tools, and should include such infor- nation, experience and skills as are applicable to home needs, but partic- ularly it should aim-to give a wide view of the industrial world, to de- velop social adaptiveness to point the way to different vacations, and to as sist in the intelligent choice of life work
 "It is idle to criticise vocational education as being narrowly special ized in outlook, materialistic and ne glectful of the finer things of life. The great problem is vocational edu- cation today and the immediate future is the training of those who have al ready gone to work"

 Killing Workers
Outrages in Homeland Bring Action
 Here to Stop Them.

Finnish citizens of Connecticut are aroused over the way in which the new government of Finland Is treat ing the workers of that country, espe- cially the organized workers. Per secutions worse than ever before heard of in the country have been placed by the "Bourgeioise," women and children have been shot down, or ganized workers imprisoned by thou sands and general imposition inflicted on the workers until finally they have appealed to their friends and fellow countrymen in this country to pro- test

Children Not Guarded

Washington, Sept. 15.-But eight states have improved their child la bor laws since the federal child labor law was annulled by the United States supreme court, says the children's bu- reau in a Labor Day review of the situation.
 In the meantime, IA state -legis- latures have met, the statement said, adding that in none of the g of these states which have child labor laws have their standards "been brought up to those of the federal law in ev- cry particular"
 Failure of state legislation to check child labor" officials declared, "make 1t evident that this is national problem, national in it's effects and national in it's importance"

Governors Lose Nerve
(Continued from Page One.)

ed, are widely protesting the commit tees plan, which has been approved by the governors, the chamber of commerce of New England and vari- OuS other organizations.
 They particuarly resent the sugges- ton that they retire from control in exchange for financial assistance. These managers had been hopeful that the committee would recommend an elaborate scheme of state financing and urged this idea at hearings held during the early part of the year. Now Up to the Railroads. The accompanying condition that | the states take hold of the roads, how ever, came from the Starrow commit tee. It does not believe that New England taxpayers would sanction treasury disbursements for the bene- fit of the carriers unless their expendi- tureture were carefully supervised by the state, which is only possible, the committee declares, through the trus- tee scheme 1t has recommended.
 If the railroads should finally ac- cept the plan, the state legislatures of New England will be called into session in October to give 1t effect. If the railroads are not amenable, however it is not believed that any of the states have power to compel them to adopt the committees recom- mendation
 In that event, however, the roads will not get financial help, and this will mean, according to the Starrow investigators and the conference of governors, that New England will not get the relief for which it has been clamoring since the termination of federal control of the railroads

l. Lawmakers Own Stock
 In Southern Textiles

1 New York, Sept. In his report from North Carolina to officers of the
 United Textile Workers, Organizer Eatough quotes from the Charlotte News that lawmakers and their friends hold stock in the textile mills of this state, and this is why labor laws are tempered with.
 We have learned the lesson not to put much confidence in these legisla- ! lures throughout the country" says
 the trade unionist "In regard to
 North Carolina, the Charlotte News, in it's editorial columns of July 26, 1923, says the following in regard to the legislature tampering with exist ing laws on the subject of hours, which are favorable to employers: "One reason for this lies in the widespread distribution of stock in the cotton mills in the state, Tn the cot
 ton milling counties of North Caro- lina-and they are numerous-it Is very difficult to find candidate for
 the legislature who does not own
 stock in a cotton mill, or whose
 friends and relatives are not stock holders"
 This put the whole case in a nut shell" says Organizer Eatough, who declares that even though a 48-hour
 law is proposed in the state legis1a-
 ture this does not mean that the tex tile workers will abandon their econ
 homie activity to secure short work
 day.
