SUbNORMAL CHILD
SCHOOLING URGED
Training Held Responsibility
of Virginia Education
Department.
~ the Associated Press.

~ the Associated Press.
MARION, Va, July 15.-State
Welfare Commissioner Arthur w.
James blamed the lack Of specialized
training OF the mentally subnormal
or feeble-rninded child in Virginia
today as q factor which contributed
Every greatly to the States prob
lens of crime, delinquency and public
dependency.
The responsibility for training these
children, James said moreover, Is
not that Of the charities and correc-
ton function OF government but that
Of the State Education Department.
James, who spoke before the Public
Welfare Institute, pointed out that
only when feeble minded child is
also dependent. delinquent or other
wise defective does he become a pub
lie welfare responsibility.
Even then" he said, this welfare
responsibility is a supplementary one
intended to provide such relief or
discipline as is necessary to facilitate
the educational processes wherever
applicable or Indicated"
Pointing to the lack Of educational
facilities for the mentally subnormal
child, James said:
Because this child hasn't enough
memory to get by in history or poetry
Is no reason why the public schools
shouldn't adapt the curriculum to
his other abilities in order to prepare
him for society as 4 self-supporting,
respectable laborer, or artisan, which
Is often possible in such cases."

Pledges Her Loyalty.
Justice Jennings Bailey presided
while Deputy Clerk Robert L. Gof ad-
rninistered the oath of allegiance by
which she pledged her loyalty to the

zenship in the French republic.
Mrs. Thaw was born in Lucerne

BY virtue Of her fathers citizenship
and official position she was born an
American, despite the place of her ma
tivity.

ried Jean Marie Emmanuel de Mau-
pats, and became French citizen. She
and De Maupas were divorced on NO.

can, Banjamin Thaw, jr., in Brussels,

riage, Mrs. Thaw would have become
an American citizen automatically by
virtue of that union.
Returned to u. s.
The Thaws moved to Oslo, Norway,
where Thaw was counselor of the
United States Legation. He died and
Mrs. Thaw returned to the United
States, establishing her home here.
The Gable act-the law which had
barred Mrs. Thaw from citizenship
when she married an American-was
amended June 25. 1896, to provide
that an American woman who lost
her citizenship by marrying a for
eigner might be repatriated after the
death or divorce Of the foreign spouse.
Mrs. Thaw was restored to citizen
ship today under this provision.
