Washington -(CNS)- The recen,
National Conference on Fundament.

groes meeting here last week was told
by President Roosevelt that: "As
yet all too small a percentage of the
Negro children of our country. especi-
ally IN its rural sections. enjoys ade-
quate or equitable facilitie for the
education which is Americas goal
for every child" And that eve have
neither schools enough properly to
accommodate the children who should
be in attendance, nor educational offe~
ngs of the quality and variety adapted
to their needs"
AT the same time DR.. George ].
Ryan, president of the Board Of Ed
ucation, in New Yory City, told a
group Of educators that: "Unless the
school system is capable Of preparing
young people for the leisure of tomor-
row, as well as for the vocation, the
country will pay for the neglect ten
fold and over in crime, debility and
HUMAN waste"
The educators met to begin a move
ment to prepre the damage of the de-
preston in schools in the United State
DR.. Ryan said:
You can patiently wait TO- nation
a. most every field, but you dare not
in lmost every field, but you dare not
permit millions of school children to
grow up either physically o. mentally
starved"
Nothing offered in later years a
fill the void caused by malnutrition
of mind or body during the tender
formative years of the growing child
For the best interests of humanity
the backward march of education must
be halted. Our Nation can survive
only so long as we are true to the basic
ideals of education. We can not be
loyal to u nation if we suffer our
schools to be detroyed any further"
DR.. Harold G. Campbell, superin-
tendent of schools, said educators
have been shocked to witness the
enormous toll that education has had
to pay on the battle fields of the pre-
sent economic depression"
"The heroism of the American
teacher in their efforts to save ed
ucation from tho horrors of this &C.
onomic war can never be fully record

Addresses 500 at Union Service
The new world trend toward ma
tionalism is the most pernicious and
insidious propaganda ever fotered
against the teachings of Jesus Chrisa,
DR.. Jeltz declared before an audience
of 300 persons at a union service at
the Broadway Methodist Church.
1.-THE religion of Jesus is not the
religion Of lynch@mad America, Nazi
Germany, soviet Russia or facist
Italy," he declared For dress it up
as you may, national class ard race
prejudice are left over forms of an
old world isolation which is only de-
stuctive and has no place in the new
wrld of increasing proximities-"
He said that wars for the most part
have been started by people living on
a purely physical plane, abetted by
persons living on a mental plane. He
declared that the task Of the Christian
church is tol lift men to the highest
the spiritual plane.
A chorus directed by Mrs. Jeltz
sang spirituals. The meeting was
opened with an invocation by Rev. E..
. Berg Of the Seventh Avenue Baptist
church. DR.. A. A. Heath of Broadway

CALIIFoRTNHfASs LESSON
From he Omaha World Hearld-Monday, May IA, 1880
Wednesday night near Los Angelts two masked men
kidnapped from his estate William F. Gettle, a wealthy
oil man.As they carried him off they answered a friends
remonsrance with the snarl: mo soft stuff. We're here
here for business. This is kidnapping"
This incident reminds us of invetably of the kidnap-
ing in California last wear of Brooke Hart, of his murder.
gether with Governor Rolphs comment: "This is the best
lesson that California has ever given the country. We
show the nation that this state is not going to tolerate
kidnapping"
Governor Rolph thus had condoned one of the great
est crimes against society, a crime greater even than kid
~napping-lynch law. The truth is now brought home to
him that any concession to violence, no matter by what
oretext, breeds more violence. The war upon kidnappers
was hurt, rather than helped, by the San Jose lynching.
California now gives that lesson to the nation. One hopes
Governor ROlph has learned it at last.
