must be cut out if we are truly
interested in national security and
world peace.
We must not only make physical
endurance a great aim, but we
must raise good stock to start
with. To avoid being attacked by
foreign nations, or to police the
world, as Mr.. Wallace talks about,
we must frankly ''raise my boy
to be soldier. This surely
means that the 'fittest'' h ou

marry into good fit stock.

that the weak babies should die

America has led the world in
public education. Much of our sue
cess today is due to our native
intelligence anu freedom. But 9TH
er nations are fast catching up
with us. Even Japan has a less
percentage of illiteracy than we
have.
This means that to hold our pres
ent relative intellectual position in
the world, we must quickly get
our public schools out of politics.
This requires teaching high-school
students ''chores in e d of

entire change in secondary educa-

is not enough for us to speed up
