DENVER, July 1.-America needs
2,o00,0 900 teachers and a $4,000, 000, 900
education budget, Prof. Jesse H. New
lon of Columbia University told the
convention Of the National Education
Association here today His recon-
mendations would be double the pres
ent figures.
approximately third of the $4,000
delegates gathered in the convention
hall to near Prof. Newton while the
others scattered to conference rooms
for allied study and discussion meet
tnes
The United States" the speaker
said, lis amply able TO provide, even
In these depression years, $4,000, 0O0.-
900 annually for schools and can af-
ford nothing less. The National Gov
eminent should Immediately assume
one-half of the total cost of public
elementary, secondary and higher ed
Ccation.
"Laissez Faire" Held Fading.
"The age of 1aissez faire individ-
ualism is closing, although the Ma
tional (so-called) Liberty League and
the so-called 'grass-rooters' may not
know it."
The schools of the Nation were de-
scribed by Bishop Francis j. Nc
Connell last night as doing more
for real freedom of the land than
the scores of blazing patriots who in
fest legislative halls calling for oaths
of devotion to the Constitution-or
to whatever the patrioteer thinks sa-
cred" The Methodist churchman from
New York spoke at vesper services
opening the convention.
If the Nation Is to allow criticism
of anything, it must allow criticism Of
ITSELF" the clergyman admonished the
educators. "All sorts of vested inter-
ests today are telling us that we
should not rely on any agencies of
change except the slow and gradual.
OF course educational processes are
slow and gradual. But their aim is to
train minds to act quickly. The edu-
oational system should make possible
this quick thinking and quick acting"

to q minimum. II II persists this
year, there will be no reserves Of
corn left. From surplus induced by
excess production in our own and
other countries, we are in danger Of
passing to scarcity due to drouth
and dust.
Records Of drouth are readily
traced In the rings Of trees. There
are records Of other drouths In the
plains as bad as or worse than the
present drouth. This IL not, how.
ever, an assurance to science that
we may now be witnessing the be-
ginnings Of one Of those deserts In
which nature delights. II was when
the Southwest became a desert that
the Indians moved into Mexico. Life
follows the moisture-bearing air cur.
rents. When they passed from the
region south of the Mediterranean to
the region north Of the Mediter-
ranean, life followed them. The Ash
atics have long been accustomed to
packing up and following the mois-
ture-bearing winds.
Science would not care to assert
its entire apprehensions Of the dust
storms In the western plains. They
may be the consequences Of just an
other drouth. Or they may be the
beginning Of the end for all that
region where the buffalo grazed- Sci-
ence knows what has happened.
What is to happen Is on the knees OF
the gods.-St. Louis Post-Dispatch.
Montgomery County sentinel., 1935-04-25

No one who has not been In one OF
the dust storms which have swept
the western plains for more than a
year can appreciate their devasta-
tion and the apprehensions Of the
people in the region extending from
the Gulf Of Mexico to the Great
Slave lake.
Science knows full well the po-
tentialides Of this terrible phenome-
non. Il has innumerable records Of
other soil transformations brought
about by the wind. Much Of the rich
er soil over vast areas in the United
States was carried there by dust
storms. An analysis Of dust falling
In Missouri year ago revealed the
characteristics OF soil In the Da-
kotas. All soils are easily identified
By their mineral content. The Da-
kotas had been exposed to drouth
for q number Of years. The soil was
deprived Of its protective vegetation.
Thus, when the wind blew, the soil
was carried away to be deposited
In other states.
To most Of us who live where
moisture is sufficient for human
needs, 1t Is difficult to realize that
the dust storms have been raging
al winter. Neither snow nor rain has
been sufficient TO keep the dust down
eTen In mountainous states Ike Col
orado. Heavy rains have flooded the
lower Mississippi valley, but the
shortage OF moisture has gone right
On in the plains. Whether in Texas
or Saskatchewan, the wind has only
to rise and the dust is blown. If any
thing, the dust storms have been
worse than ever in the last two
months. They have actually buried
fences, piled dust high around houses
and barns, covered up crops. They
are destructive alike TO man and
beast No form Of life can Withstand
them day after day very long
Needless to say, the dust phenome-
non has greatly altered the food sit
uation In the United States. 1t az
fects meats and grains. II Is In part
responsible for the increased cost of
living. The AAA plan to limit the
production Of spring wheat has been

more than $1,000 Chinese characters.
The primary student tolls over his
own language seven hours q week in
class, seven hours a week at home, a
total Of fourteen hours a week for six
years At the end Of that time he
has mastered only about 5000 Of the
Chinese ideographs leach having five
or six different meanings). He can
