SCHOOL DAYS EDEN
is PROMISED DANES
In EXPERTS PLAN

COPENHAGEN, June ia
school boys paradise IN the al
mosphere of advanced learning Is
proposed by a Danish government
committee appointed three years
ago to study the reorganization OF
public schools.
Text books would be abolished
for the last three years Of mid

rem over u, under the committees
plan.
Instead OF assigning a daily les-
son, the teacher would select a
topic on which he would lead the
students for investigation outside
the classroom
The old frames of education
would be broken down in favor
of a "free" method with object
lesson excursions into the field o.
chemistry. physics science geo
graphy, history, economics and
so on.
The report recommends also
that more stress be laid on azndi-
craft and gymnastics School kit
chens and gardens are suggested
Athletic training and instruction
in hygiene would be given wider
scope.

Stranded French Ship
Inks Danish Customs
(By Associated Press)

COPENHAGEN, June 13.-For
more than six months the French
steamer Adrar, 5000 tons, has
rested on dry land, with full
crew on board, awaiting a spring
flood to take it out to sea again.
Thrown ashore at the island of
Sylt by a heavy gale last October,
the ship has now sunk deep into
the sands.
A long ladder permits the crew
to "go ashore" for water.
Provisions are sent regularly
from France raising the question
with the customs authorities
whether the craft is part of the
island or is foreign ship territory

Danzig's Jobless List
Cut AS Germany Arms
tBy Associated Press,

DANZIG, June 13.-Germany's
rearmament has had a good effect
upon the Free City's unemploy-
ment problem. But Polish officials
here are worried.
The unemployed number sank
by 5000 in March. The big factor
in this was said to be volunteer
enlistments of Germans, who are
citizens of the Free City, in Hit
ler's army and labor service.
This is what worries the poles.
They fear that Danzig will be-
come closer to the reign through
the training received by Danzigers
in Germany.

Stetson Company, hat manufacturers,
said to involve $500 workers, was
called here, when company officials
are alleged to have refused union rec
ognition, twenty-five per cent wage
increase and improved working con-
ditions. Instead of dealing with the
union, it is stated the president of the
company caused notice to be posted
granting five per cent wage increase,
effectiv in January, plus an extra
weeks salary as Christmas bonus.
But this proffered sop, it was said,
did not alter the union in insisting on
recognition and collective bargaining

A FEW ITEMS OF FOREIGN
NEWS

Nazi German troops, fighting in the
Spanish rebel army and known tx
Spanish loyalists as white Moors,
are reported to have increased ir
numbers from 5000 to 10000 in the
last two weeks.
Tri-motored junker planes, of Nazi
German manufacture, killed 100 civil
ians in a recent Madrid air raid.
Six thousand Fascist Italian troops
are reported to be in frances rebel
army
The latest dispatches say that
Franco has arranged for secret
meeting in Paris with Nazi and Fas-
cist officials to draft plans for fur
ther Nazi and Fascist help to the
Spanish insurgents. One account says
that Hitler will be asked to send 20,-
600 volunteers" to Spain, via Portu-
gal.
These efforts are being made to
help rebellion against a Spanish
government installed by an over
whelming vote of the Spanish people.
And all the time, Nazi Germany and
Fascist Italy are pretending to neu-
trality.
It is about time for the liberal world
to realize that no Fascist or Nazi
dictatorship can be trusted in any form
or manner. Not one has any vestige
of what democratic folk call honor
All claim to rule by a right indis-
tinguishable in practice from the
divine right claimed by the kaiser;
and all of them are willing to resort
to all crimes, from forgery to whole
sale murder, to maintain their pres
tige and keep their unlawfully seiz-
ed power.
If the Spanish war overfows and
becomes a world war, Hitler and Mus
solini and their co-workers in devil
ment will be responsible.
