GUT
DEPLORED

The danger that the carefully
laid out program of education
throughout the nation will come
tumbling down in sweeping
economy programs was expressed
today by Mrs. Katherine M. Cook
of the United States Office of
Education, at a conference of
the District Congress of Parents
and Teachers in the Interior De.
partment Building.
Asserting that economy meas.
ures are essential at this time,
Mrs. Cook stated, however, that
the shortening of school days,
the curtailment of activities and
studies, carefully drawn up after
years of research, will leave an
indelible mark of destruction on
education.
The wave of economy has gone
so far in some communities, omit
ting studies in vocational educa-
tion, art, music and other pro-
grams.
All these economy moves,
brought about by false economy
she said, will prove a serious
detriment to the program of edu-
cation and will obliterate the
careful structure of educational
programs.

Parade and Ball

Prospects that there will be
a big parade and an old-fash-

communication with Albany re-
garding the inaugural program,
an informed Democratic source
here was responsible for the pre-
diction that the Roosevelt inaugu-
ration will be one Of simplicity
and economy.
It was said, with some fore
sight and authority, that there
doubtless will be a small parade
from the Capitol Building to the
White House with several bands
and groups of exultant Democrats
in the line of march. The bands
will play martial airs and citi-
zens in automobiles and on foot
will swing up the Avenue. But
that was about all in sight.
There has been a suggestion
that the old Pension Office be
refitted for a magnificent ball in
the evening. One Government Of
ficial already has proposed it, ac-
cording to Democratic inform
ant.
Meanwhile, there came clear
intimation that neither the Presi-
d 5-elect nor Mrs. Roosevelt is
likely to o. K. a big ball.

said the artificial larynx could
have been removed for hours be-
