Our Public Schools
BIZ James T. Williams, Jr.

lcompelled to deny themselves
many of the comforts of life, that
they refused to jeopardize the fu.
ture Of their children by permit
ing snipers and sapperS and a
horde Of political parasites to
cripple the public school system.
1t was in these very depression
years that State after State en-
acted compulsory school attend.
ance legislation and extended rec
ognition to public high schools as
"the logical and legal educational
link between the elementary
schools and the higher institu.
tions."
So, it was in the depression
years that followed the panic of
1893. In spite of the hard times
that then prevailed the records
for those years reflect the great
est credit upon the character and
sense of values Of the American
people.
Public school attendance, public
school expenditures, the value Of
public school property and the
length of the public school term
showed encouraging increases.
Many public normal schools
were established, better provisions
were made for public school teach
erS and there was a tremendous
increase in the number of public
high schools.
Again in the depression year Of
1907 Public Education did not go
backward. 1t went forward as is
shown by the fact that the public
school term was again increased,
as were also public school attend
ance and public school expendi-
lures.
OUT OF PROPORTION
How different is the story for
the depression years that followed
the economic collapse of 1929.
In these years Public Education
has been among the worst suffer
| erS.
Instead Of advancing as it did
in previous economic crises Pub
lie Education has gone backward
in large majority of the States
of the Union. And in many Of
these States public expenditures
for other purposes have been out
of all proportion to those made
for the support of public schools.
The lesson of this melancholy
record for all true americans is
plain upon its face.
The time has come to drive out
Of the public service all pork
barrel politicians and other enc.
mics of Public Education who are
squandering upon the frills and
follieS of government the taxes
of the people that ought to go for
the support of Public Education.
If the American system of gov
ernment is to be saved Public Edu.
cation must be restored to a firm
foundation in every State in the
Union and public servants elected
pledged to its support and extern
sion North, East. South and West.
The Washington times., 1935-11-19

One of the most insidiouS as
saults now being made upon the
American system Of Government
is aimed at Public Education.
The enemies Of Public Educa-
ton are taking advantage Of the
depression to starve the Public
Schools by inadequate appropria-
tions for their support, to pol
lutte the public schools by at
tempting to use them as factories
of anti-American propaganda,
and to make the public school
system a target for attack by
snipers who challenge its ef-
fectiveness and sappers who seek
Ito undermine what cannot be
directly overthrown" in the
American system Of public educa-
ton.
One of the most disgraceful
chapters in the economic depreSs
sion from which the country is
emerging, in spite Of it's politi-
cal exploiters, is the fact that
never before during an economic
crisis have the American people
permitted the opportunity for
public education to be restricted.
During the past century the
United States has had dozen
or more well-marked economic
crises" writes DR.. Edgar w.
Knight, Professor of Education
at the University Of North Caro-
lima, in a most useful and in
forming handbook on "Our Pub
lie Schools" recently published by
the National Congress of Parents
and Teachers.
OTHER CRISES
Each one was accompanied
by conditions of lowered produc-
ton, Shringage in capital, bank
ruptcies, falling prices, reduced
earnings, wage cuts, unemploy-
ment, unrest and distress. The
crises of 1887, 1873, 1893 and
1907 are reported as the most
serious and as being followed
by the longest period Of depres-
sion."
But Public Education did not
suffer during the depression years
that followed the crisis of 1887
in spite of the fact that it was
one Of the worst economic panics
this country ever experienced.
On the contrary during those
trying years, as DR.. Knight points
out, "every phase of the economic
life of the country was retarded
but a most conspicuous educa.
tional awakening occurred all
over the country.
During the depression years
that followed the economic crisis
of 1873 public school ATTENDANCE,
public school expenditures, the
value of public school property
and the public school term in
creased and many changes for the
better were made in the admin
istration of the public school
system.
It was in these depression years,
when the American people were

Attorney General Homer S. Cum
mings in the event the chief Of
the Governments legal depart
ment is moved to other quarters.
That Cummings would be
moved. is considered a remote
possibility.
Some credence is given to the
report that Barkley would be in
line for the next vacancy on the
Supreme Court bench. In that
event he would be after the
same coveted post that is re.
ported sought by Majority
Leader Joseph T. Robinson,
Democrat of Arkansas.
Barkley and Robinson have
worked together for years to lead
the Democratic members of the
Senate to the fold. Robinson
has been aided materially on
more than one occasion by the
slow-moving but thorough Sena-
tor from Kentucky.
In the recent Kentucky elec-
tion-the one which the Admin
istration sought so earnestly to
win-Barkley is said to have
earned a sizeable vote for his
party.
The Administration was anxi-
Gus to win the election and
Barkley helped in that fight as
he has in others.
Now comes the question Of re-
ward.
The Washington times., 1935-11-19
ECCENTRIC METEORS

Periodically, the question arises,
will the Leonids fool us again."
These deceitful cosmic sparks
have a way Of tricking expert star
gazers, as well as ordinary celestial
kibitzers.
Just a year ago, you may re-
member, the astronomers were
telling us that if we wanted real
good, free-of-charge, out-of-door
spectacle, all we had to do was
to hike to a hilltop or take the
elevator to the roof and cast our
gaze over the heavens.
We were promised one Of the
most gorgeous Roman candle dis
plays imaginable. But, somehow.
it didn't come off. The Leonids
walked out on us. We were left
staring at a tranquil sky, illum-
mated, as usual, only by the super
nal glory Of the stars. But the
astronomic folk put the blame on
the planet Jupiter. They accuse 1
old Jupiter of jealousy directing
his gravitational pull to draw the
swarming Leonid meteors from
their earthly path to trails which
led in his own direction.
If the show comes off at all,
it should take place a few days
before this piece is printed. Far
out in space, from the great con-
stellation of Leo, may have come
a torrential rain Of flaming par
ticles. The early morning sky may
have been criss-crossed with these
fiery darts. AS I say, the Leonids,
these blazing meteors, appear to
originate in the contellation OF
Leo above the Eastern horizon.
SHOOTING STARS
Years ago, the display could
always be counted upon annually,
and once every 80 years there was
q stupendouS exhibition Of these
celestial fireworks. The most thrill
ing display of shooting stars on
record took place in November,
1888. There was another breath
taker in 1866. The Leonids gave
us the go-by in 1899, and have
been extremely erratic troopers
ever since.
Every such meteor which at
tracts the eye goes on a journey
of 33 years. 1t takes that long for
the white hot spark to speed from
the figure of the Sickle in the
constellation Of Leo to away out
beyond the planet Uranus and
back again.
MeteoriteS are countless. Their
numbers are beyond human imag'
ination. Astronomers can no more
reckon their amount than they
could count the grains of sand on
a Seashore. They are part OF the
great tremendous drama of the
solar system. They explode from
a vast elliptical ring, three billion
mile long, fifty million miles wide
Like an eternal whirlpool the
great stream whirls around the
heavens.

They had to admit the obvious

dismissed as tricks-easily learned

their fundamental ability to use
their enormous new privilege, they
had not the slightest doubt.
TRAGIC ERROR
And they were fiercely eager to
use that privilege. They were SO
sick of the old tasks, so irked by
the old discipline. They did not
know that life must always be
composed of tasks; be bounded by
discipline. Liberty, to them, meant
license. They thought they mao

there would be no laws, no ooll

"A large and inspiring title-but
just what does it buy us?
In the last so years we have
achieved educational, political
and industrial equality. But what
does that do for us? Given books,
we make brilliant records. Better
records, frequently, than male stu
dents. A far more articulate show
ing than our husbands. But does
that mean anything? Or Is 1t
merely the facile chattering Of
parrots?
Given the vote, we use our poll
! tical power ruthlessly. But, again,
does that mean anything? Does
our use of the vote prove that we
have real power in ourselves
real balance, control, Judgment?
Or are we monkeys smashing
things with tack hammers?
We feel-by countless devices
we have been made to feel-that
we are "too good" for the stupid
old task of bearing babies, cooking,
sewing, scrubbing. making homes.
We demand more brilliant des-
stinies - scorn men who do not
provide them. But what are these
more brilliant destinies? And what
preparation have we made Tor
them?
BEWILDERED
With all our privilege and
power, just how do we stack UP,
we modern women? What strength
and wisdom do we possess within
ourselveS-of our own creation?
How reliable, how valuable are
we, not by legal franchise, but in

important than the cradles We

built? Do they secure for us a
more honorable position in the
Status Quo-or pay us, personally,
larger dividends in peace and
pride?
I'm a woman and glad to be one.
