SUGGEST YOUTH
BE TRAINED TO
FACE new DEAL
Social Study Educators Say
Success Depends on
Such Teaching.
BIZ United Press

BIZ United Press
NEW YORK, May 14.-Educa-
tional training TO adjust children to
the new social order of collectiv-
ism" in the United States was urged
today in the second installment of
the report released by the social
studies commission after a five-year
survey.
The report warned that success
of the new order, a system sharply
different from the individualistic
era. hinged upon. proper education
OF youth for the transition.
Bureaucratic tyranny" and
downfall of liberty and democracy
may occur if youth are trained in
the economics of the old era, the
report declared. The supreme pur-
pose of education" the report said,
"is the preparation of the rising
generation to enter the society now
coming into being through thought,
ideal and knowledge rather than
through coercion, regimenCation and
ignorance and to shape and form
that society with American ideals of
democracy and personal liberty and
dignity"
Changed Conditions Noted
The report took note of the shift
ing economic picture in these words:
The merging economy will in
volve the placing of restraints upon
individual enterprise, propensities
and acquisitive egoism in agricul-
ture, industry and labor. and gener-
ally on the conception, ownership,
management and use of property, as
the changing policies of government
already indicate
In view Of this, the report con-
tinued:
The efficient functioning OF the
emergency economy and the full
utilization of its potentialities re-
quire profound changes in the at
titudes and outlook of the Ameri-
can people, especially the rising
generation-a complete and frank
recognition that the old order is
passing. that the new order is
emerging. Rational use of the
new leisure requires a cultural
equipment which will give strength
and harmony to society instead Of
weakness and discord. Continued
emphasis in education of the ira
ditionaI ideas and values of eco
nomic individualism and acquis-
itiveness will intensity the con-
flicts and Embellishments and per-
lis of the transition"
New Orders Ideals Listed
AS the ideals of the new order the
report set up the following;
The recognition of the moral
equality of all men; abolition of
class distinctions and special priv
ileges; the extension to every indi-
vidual the opportunity of develop
ment of his creative capacities, his
spiritual quality and his individ-
uality: the encouragement of his
social inquiry inventivenesS and
tolerance: protection of all liberties
essential to defense against brute
power; development Of resistance to
racial and religious passions and
prejudiceS."
Today'S report will be followed by
others each day this week.

The school system of Ohio stands
in need Of aid. The passage of the
ten mill limitation amendment
which affords a much needed relief
to property owners, the depression
with it's lowered evaluations. and
delinquent taxes have decreased the
revenue until our educational sys-
TEN is seriously threatened.
It is my contention that the state
should replace these funds, which
would assure a decent minimum of
education to every child in the state
of Ohio. and decent compensation
to those faithfully engaged in CIV
ing aid and directing this educa-
ton.
A proper education is not only
a highly profitable investment in
the state and society of tomorrow,
but it is further, solemn obliga-
tion to the children of today. 1t is
my intent, If elected, to carry on
this investment to reasonable
measure which does not place an
exorbitant, permanent, tax burden
upon the people of this county.

familiar with the problems con-
fronting the farmers, and will do
everything within common reason
to right them. Pol. Adv.)
