CRIME BLAME PUT
ON NATNE-bORN
Children Born in U. S. of
Foreign Parents Held
Greatest Offenders.

Native-born children Of foreign
parents, rather than the aliens them
selves, are responsible for most of the
crimes of violence in this country,
James A. Meyer, Massachusetts, State
director Of university extension, told
the National Education Association's
board of directors at a meeting early
this afternoon.
Basing his statements on recent
study of criminal delinquency OF
young people. he said that more than
half the reported crimes OF violence
have been committed by youths be-
tween the ages of IT and % years who
are born children of foreign
born parents.
In Massachusetts,, for example, Of
all crimes accompanied by violence
for which arrests were made in recent
years. native born children committed
40 per cent, while their forign-born
parents committed only Is per cent,
he said In another typical State
the native born children comprise
only 25 per cent Of the native-born
population, but they committed so
per cent of the crimes punishable by
Imprisonment in State institutions In
the same State 10 per cent of the
delinquent youths were natives, but of
foreign-born parentage."
He said most of the delinquency
among second-generation Americans
is due to the unsuccessful adaptation
of the native-born child to the con-
flicting differences between Old World
and New World culture, a conflict
between an American environment in
the school and on the playground and
a foreign environment in the home"

It took four separate attempts to
provide the National Educational As
sociation convention with a loud
speaker system that would permit the
delegates to hear the speakers. The
first three attempts were such fall
ures that hundreds walked out. Lead
ers of the convention. when asked
what the specific trouble was, said

nal attendance was left. Heat was
terrific in many of the smaller as
Sembly rooms.
Otis w. Caldwell, director of the
Institute Of School Experimentation
Columbia University, has a simple
formula for improving education in
high schools. Reduced to its simplest
terms it is think more, talk less. "
From the standpoint of the teacher

thinking subjects and less time %
languages; then make thought teach

"Fcolishness is bound up in the
heart of a child. but the rod of the
corrector will drive it from him"
Such was the apt admonition which
met the eye of the American school,
boy of 1900 when he opened his New
England Primer" for a studious day.
1t was one of his reading exercises,
and right next to it he was informed
that liars will have their part in the
lake which burneth with fire and
birthstone"

Preparation for Death
Considered First.
It was a lugubrious book. From
every page grim reminders of coming
death and everlasting hell fire stared
up at the pupil. Schooling in those
days was for the character as well as
the mind. and preparation for death
was considered more essential than
preparation for life.
Thus preceding one of the earlier
lessons is a charming old lithograph
depicting a young woman. her long
hair streaming down her back. who
stands beneath a cypress tree ana
leans on a marble gravestone The
reading lesson consists of the follow
ing verses
