The Walker Anti-Klan law

According to the N. Y. World,

WHAT DO OUR CHILDREN
KNOW
BY Daniel w. Chase

Associated Negro Press A
The study of current topics
the graded schools and the hsA,
schools is the most neglected
and yet one of the most import
ant subjects in the school cours-
es, according to a statement
made by W. C. Blakely of the
New York Institute of Public
Service. Inasmuch as the stu
dent of today is the citizen of to-
morrow, Mr.. Blakely insisted, it
is vitally necessary that he know
the people, places and the prob
lens that the Government deals
with in its activities.
As proof of the need Of more

in the eighth grade 80 per cent
and in the high school only 81
per cent passed. In the neigh
borhood of Senator Lodges own

could tell who he is. Truly, a
great man is without honor in
his own home town. Questions
that should be of interest to the
pupils: sports, movies. That the
ignorance of children is great,
the speaker continued, is shown
by the fact that 80 per cent of
high school pupils did not know
the winner of the last worlds
series about eight out of ten did
not know who Charles G. Dawes
is. When asked to name two
living ex-Presidents, one boy
named Taft and Byron, and an

NEUTRAL STATES
HIDE REAL intent
IN EARLY VOTING
No Indication Given of Which
Way Large Delegations
Will Swing Later.
BY N. O. MESSENGER.
Staff Correspondent of The Star.

NEW YORK, June 30.-The first
ballot ran true to predicted form.
The favorite-son candidates were
tro..ed out by their respective states
and given an honorary vote. The
states which had no favorite sons
disguised their choice.
Illinois led off in this camouf1age
parade.
The foxy Mr.. Brennan gravely
split the delegation's vote among
Smith, McAdoo, Cox, Silzer. Davis,
Harrison and Gov. Bryan.
Massachusetts, played possum by di-
viding with Gov. Brown, Senator
Harrison, McAdoo and Gov. Smith.
Minnesota divided it's vote widely.
Neutrnls Look Around.
Thus. it was shown that neutral
states were holding out from show
ing their bands and were looking
over events as they might develop.
On the second ballot the same pol
icy was pursued by the favorite-so
states. Smith began to pick up votes
a few at time, gaining total of
10 votes, while McAdoo lost half a
vote. The Smith policy is to ask
friends in other delegations to feed
Smith votes gradually. and not rush
the mourners": that the convention
was still feeling it's way carefully.
On the second ballot Massachusetts,
still played possum, and Pennsylvania
was still hiding in the brush.
The third ballot showed but slight
change, McAdoo gaining and Smith
gaining 4. There were no indica tions
Of break in any direction.
