Talking With Children.

Adults who work with children must
find it a matter of considerable dim
Guilty to develop an effective technique
of expression. The mature mind ana
the immature mind are different
mechanisms. and it is not easy to
communicate ideas from one to the
other Hence the common complaint,
my children do not understand me-
and Grown ups cannot understand
However, there probably Is far more
general comprehension than either
group would suppose. Fathers and
mothers have themselves been chill
dren and have not entirely forgotten
the fact-they are familiar with at
least few of the problems of youth.
And children reflect their environ
ment, are controlled to a certain fx-
tent by their surroundings, think in
consonance with the psychological
atmosphere in which they live. The
gap between parents and their sons
and daughters, it would seem. Is not
nearly so wide as a superficial exami-
nation might suggest.
But the medium of language is not
perfect. Many father, attempting
serious conversation with his boy,
must discover that he simply cannot
get across" the thought to which he
desires to give utterance, and the lad
also stumbles and shutters in his own
endesvor to respond, but the failure

look upon the outcome as anything
except a happy one. Whether Mr..
Mellon was a good Secretary of the
Treasury because the country was so
prosperous during his incumbency
that he couldn't help himself, or
whether he really was the financial
genius which in his time he was
thought to be, the fact remains that
he was once an officialsalmost revered.
The return of an indictment against
him and the subsequent criminal trial
would have added another TO the dis

owe 1t to their own self-respect and
regard for fair play to take a mans
honor into consideration before they
thus besmirch him without well
grounded cause. The Treasury would
be derelict If it did not file claims
against any whom it has a reason to
believe have escaped with less than
their share Of contributions to the
Government. But only after civil
action has developed proof to justify
1t has 1t the right to make criminal
charges that leave a blot on a mans
character that never can be removed"

Story of Boy Reared
Gin Wilds" Called Hoax
Ca the Editor Of The Star:

To the Editor of The Star:
On April 8 there appeared In your
newspaper a story of q youth, reared
In Canada and visiting In California.
who had been reared "in the wilds"
and who did not find civilization to
be q thing desirable from his point
of view. After reading this story,
specially on account of its round
table connection, wrote to q. good
friend and a gentleman of promi-
nence in San Jose where the major
part of the scene was laid asking him
to verify the facts. This friend an
swered me as follows:
The boy of II who never saw q
girl, turned out to be all hooey' The
peculiar thing about that was that
one of our Knights which it was my
pleasure to introduce to San Jose
Round Table, was Mr.. Mcclellan,
who took this young fellow into his
bosom-a most attractive, smart, keen
and q fine specimen of young man
hood-but the story Of his WANDER
ings, ETC., was proven to be false by
brother who saw his picture in the
daily paper and read the story and
he Immediately set the people right
in San Jose. His hallucination was
real to him only. He hailed from
Sacramento, having lived in Canada
when he was just mere boy; but the
whole story as reported in the press
vas nothing but = myth concocted
wholly out OF whole CLOTH"
This Ia brought to your attention
on account of my fondness for The
Evening StH, one Newspaper which

concluded his remarks, one who was
opposed to 1t sought to gain recoeni.
ton for the purpose of making a re-
ply. He tried to catch the eye OF the
occupant of the chair. He failed.
There was an awkward pause. The
Chair" had gone to sleep. Was it
the somniferous effect of the preced-
ing speech? Was it fatigue due
to arduous attention to senatorial
duties? None can tell. The drowsy
ofiicial ''recognizer" has not revealed
the cause Of his lapse. Nudged by q
clerk. he finally aroused, recognized
the claimant for the floor and the
Senate continued In its role of the
greatest deliberative body in the
world, much amused, and the Chair"
much embarrassed.
The Congressional Record does not
mention the incident. 1t often hap
pens that such lacunae occur, gaps
dictated by propriety or considera tion
But the fact stands that one of the
speakers actually put the presiding
officer Of the Senate to sleep. Gen.
Dawes did not have that excuse. He
simply awoke too late In the morning
to get to the Senate In time to effect
the appointment Of an Attorney Gen
eral. 1t Is clear that there must be
some sort of reform in the Senate
routine, some means of insuring con-
tinuous attention on the part of the
wielder Of the gavel, whether the
members OF the Senate on the floor
listen or not Perhaps a robot can
be devised with an electric ear to
catch the last words Of the speaker,
and an automatic voice to grant rec
ognition to the claimant for succeed
ing attention.
The incident demonstrates at least
that not even the lack OF immediate
recognition can prevent q member OF
that august body from getting the
floor when he wants to make q
speech.

with the Senate tied, has the matter
of somnolence disturbed the routine
of Senatorial proceedings until yes
terday, when the presiding ofiicer,
pinch hitting for the Vice President,

sion was proposed amendment to

father goes on with the conviction
that Il guess Junior Is a pretty
decent kid" and the youngster tells
his friends, my dad really is a good
old egg" Something intangible.
something that cannot be described in
speech, binds the one generation to
the other.
Obviously. the bond may be in
jured by mishandling. Children
share with adults the same resent
ment against being preached at" and
against being "bossed around" and
they hate being patronized. The
great teachers of modern times have
been those who have had the genius
or the good fortune to hit upon the
right method of approach, the most
natural manner OF inviting interest
and maintaining attention. Dan
Beard and Ernest Thompson Seton
appear to have been born with the
needed talent: Luther Halsey Gulick
had 1t and so did Robert Kennedy
Duncan.
But competent teachers are made"
as we'll as born, and the normal
schools. the colleges and the univer-
stiles deserve credit for the advances
they have made along the line of
preparation. No rigid rule can be
laid down; variation in method is
dictated by variation in human ma
terial. but in the long run 1t prob
ably will be decided that the indi-
vidual who is the most popular and
influential among friends of his own
age will be likewise the most success
full among children.
The problem Is worthy of study
Civilization depends upon the en-
dowment of the young by the old,
the transfer from one generation to
another OF the elemental values of
accumulated knowledge and expe-
rience.

More Deportation Powers
To Labor Head Held UnWise

To the Editor OF The Star:
The sympathy of every person is
always touched by the rigidity of
laws. Out cf 137,OS7 undesirable
aliens deported since July I. 1924, as
stated in an article in The SUNDAY
Star, 1t appears that Secretary OF
Labor Perkins immigration Commit
tee has after long and careful study
found 465 aliens who in the opinion
Of the committee should not be de-
ported Although these aliens are here
in violation of our immigration laws,
the Perkins committee feels that
these aliens should not be deported.
because their families would be sep
arated. 1t is urged therefore that our
deportation laws be amended so as to
give Secretary Perkins the option to
deport or not to deport as she may
believe will be in the public interest.
If this recommendation Is adopted
by Congress our Government, In so
far as our deportation proceedings are
concerned, will become one of persons
rather than one of laws. Whether
aliens were actually deported would
depend on the view which the Sec
retary of Labor should take of each
case. II she were opposed to cur re-
strictive immigration policy she would
PROBABLY discharge the alien and al
low him to remain.
Our Secretary Of Labor has given
evidence of being opposed to immi-
grafton restriction. One of the first
acts of her administration was to
cancel an order made by her predeces-
sor requiring all aliens hereafter
entering the country to be finger
printed. Since this order would not
harm any alien except the alien un-
lawfully entering the country. one
cannot explain the cancellation ex-
cep5 on the supposition that Miss
Perkins is not heartily in favor of
innnigration restriction.

Bulgarian Convicts'

bul. The work, 1t is added, will be

convicts.. &C.,.
While, on the whole, this informa-
ticn is correct, wish to state that
the troudovaks referred to are not
''convicts," but members of a special
labor corps instituted after the war
as q substitute for military service,
which is no longer compulsory In Bull
earia. This corps. which bears some
analogy with the C. C. C. in America,
has performed some very valuable
works. one of which. undoubtedly,
will be the completion of the Interna-
tional Highway. Calais -Istanbul.

Benefit of Parking
Prohibition Denied
To the Editor OF The Star:

To the Editor OF The Star:
In this evenings Star read two
letters In favor of abolishing all-night
parking.
In one OF these articles It was said
any one who has a car and can't
afford to pay twenty-five cents a day
for garage and q few pennies for
insurance on the car is a menace to
the city" And many owners Of cars
which are practically junk would be
forced to get rid of them"
In other words, II understand the
gentleman. only a person earning a
good salary should own q car. The
man with q small salary, already
overburdened with taxes, will have the
choice OF building a garage, paying
seven dollars a month for one, If he
can get one for that, or doing with
out q car. Take Ibis car" of the
street, he Is assessed for that street,
in front Of the house for which he
pays taxes, so that some property
owner" that has q garage to rent may
make money.
In the downtown section, where
parking all night may be a hazard II
certainly cannot see what hazard
there is ever downtown after II
o'clock, except that of intoxicated and
reckless driyerD, abolition of park
ing might do some good; but I wish
some OF the advocates OF this idea
would explain the benefits to be in
the outer sections of our city. The
only one that I can find is that the
garage owners will receive a direct
benefit. OF course, it will make the
city beautiful, but the people who GO
sightseeing after midnight would not
appreciate this beauty, am afraid.
I might say in closing that am
very much in favor of insurance. In
surance does good for more than one
group Of persons. JOHN CONBOYE.
