Importance shouldn't be overesti-

DR.. Field had good news for the
youngsters in school drilling in
arithmetic. Such work begun in
many schools in kindergarten and

postponed to third grade. She de-
clares:
Facts and are not important

lations among the nations shall be

President Speaks Extemporaneously.

Dor" he emphasized.
Armed forces" he added, "can be
no permanent substitute for the Sc
curity that rests upon trust and OBJ
servance of international rules of
peace and good order. The resort to
ever - increasing ornaments cannot
bring ultimate security; their very
accumulation constantly breeds terror
and anxiety rather than a sense OF
safety. It wastes productive energies
by which ordinary life could be i'm
proved. It leaves the small or I'M
armed states at the mercy of the reck-
less and the powerful. Since these
things are so, all the greater is the
significance of the determination of
the American republics to look to the
rules of international law and trust
for safety and avoid the perilous ex-
tremes of competitive armament. It
is inconceivable that civilized nations
of the world everywhere will long de-
lay action of the same kind"
"At the same time, the troubled state
Of the world today, the unpredictable
nature of the new forces at work, would
make complacency both inappropriate
and dangerous. Whether we like it or
not, We live in an age Of political and
social turmoil. Ominous storm clouds
overhang many parts of the world

remittingly use the full strength OF
our continental solidarity to advance
the cause of peace and to improve the
