students in education The problems involved
situations of conflict between such principles as
honesty and loyalty, truthfulness and courtesy,
and so on, and the purpose of the study was to
determine the extent to which American educa-
tors agree with one another in situations in
volving conflicting social ideals. DR.. Mailer
sought to obtain the opinion of educators to
the correct solutions in those confusing and
sometimes embarrassing situations
These problems, according to DR.. Mailer, are
often similar to the legal cases which are
ported in the Dissenting Opinions of Justice
Holmes"
Each problem was so framed that it called for
one Of four solutions; answer of truthful
ness; one based on consideration for other
peoples feelings; one involving no particular
conflict: the fourth a white lie. And, judging
from the results Of the study or survey. Diog
enes, the Greek cynic, could throw away his
lantern if he were growing about looking for an
honest man these days The woods appear to
be full of them. In fact. judging from the
sponses, it would seem that most men are, at
least theoretically, honest Women are the glib
liars, even on principle.
THIS is sample of the kind Of problem
] which was presented to the young educa-
tors of Teachers College, the frontier think
ers," as Dr.. Mailer terms them:

HONE interesting feature brought to light
~ in the study was the fact that marked
difference in extent Of agreement was revealed
when the SIT Judges were classified into S
groups according to their major interests: Edu.
cational psychology school administration,
teachers Of special subject matter, teachers OF
religious education and philosophy Of educa-
ton. The percentages of agreement within
each Of these groups were philosophy 81
per cent; psychology, Sc per cent; religious
education "a per cent; teachers 50 per cent:
administration 73 per cent. Thus it appears
that among school administrators and among
teachers there Is greater extent of agreement
as to what constitutes right and wrong than
among psychologists and philosophers
"The percentage OF agreement was computed
separately for the men and women The 306
women who answered the problems showed a
slightly greater agreement among themselves
as to the correct solutions than the 211 men,"
DR.. Mailer. when discussing conflicting social
ideals and their bearing upon character edu-
cation, matters which inspired his recent sur
vey said:
"One Of the outstanding characteristics OF
modern educational theory is that it considers
the concepts Of right and wrong as dynamic
rather than static. principle may be valid
under one set Of circumstances and meaning
less under changed conditions There was q
time when the teaching of ideals and prin-
ciples differed little from the teaching Of any
other subject Of instruction. Moral concepts

1.-THE tendency on the part Of the women
! to prefer the response to which the truth
Is either partly or wholly withheld revealed
itself frequently. Take, for example, this sit
uation: Mhton's mother bought him o book
for So and todd him to tell his father it cost 81.
His father asked him later how much his book
cost Here IRE the answers asked: Milton
told him 1t cost 81 Milton told him it
cost $3. Milton refused to tell Milton told
him it cost 90, but that mother had said to
tell him it cost 81
Milton refused to tell was preferred among
women more frequently than among men. This
inclination Of men to prefer the response Of
truth telling was evident in problems where
such a statement might be considered brutally
frank.
Zone of the major aims in this recent study
was to determine the consensus of opinion
among graduate students in education al to
what constitutes right and wrong in these prob
lens of conflict. Now, if all educators agreed
as to the correct solution to each problem the
extent Of agreement would have been 100 per
cent. But, in reality, the extent of agreement
was on an average cnly 60 per cent, indicating
a great diversity of opinion. The agreement
differed for the different problems depending
upon the complexity of the conflict but there
was not a single problem concerning which
there was 100 per cent agreement among the
educators as to what constitutes right and
wrong.
However, here Is example Of the few
items which showed at least, high agreement:
Philip dropped and broke phonograph record
that was his fathers favorite. He knew his
father would feel badly about it, He told his
father what had happened He hid the rec
ord and didn't say anything about it. He told
his father that he had found the record broken
He told his father he had been looking for
that record himself, but couldn't find it,
There was in this problem SO per cent
agreement that the best answer is: He told his
father what had happened Apparently the
factor Of sparing the fathers feelings was not
considered sufficient reason for Withholding the
truth.

brutaily frank. Men truthful at any cost,
even at the price of nicking the other fellows
tender sensibilities.
DR.. j. B. Mailer, research associate OF Teach
