propaganda which has been por-
trayed az seeking control of the

Crabtree, secretary OF the National
Education Association. I'VE have
held the view all along that the
large-mlnded business men who hold
the stock in power companies also

of this kind, and that they would
disapprove of this crime against
youth"
Secretary Crabtree says that there
have been other pests even worse"
