day afternoon on tour of Western

Of the local board.
Presidents of Garrett county should
consult the price panel more than they
do." Mr.. Mccormick said while here.
"This panel has a most important
job to do, and is doing it courage
ously without discrimination. The
people should use the panel as they
would a piece of the fire equipment

certainly initiation is. Women say they

for fear merchants will cut them off,
However, no merchant will dare cut
them off because there will be a day

"No criticism is intended, but the
public has stood off and taken the
attitude that the OPA should do it all
alone In many instances the people
have failed in their job of backing
the OPA and their boards. The pub
lie should know the prices, check COM

COLLEGE faculties complain that
~ too many high school graduates

fundamental facts and attitudes that
constitute Americanism.
In other words, ignorant of their

Ignorant oft the impulses and

democracy founded on freedom.
Ignorant of the currents that

Case for American History

DUBLIC approval of the Los
4 Angeles Examiners disclosure
that the study of American history
in the Los Angeles schools is being
belittled and neglected, has been
spontaneous and immediate.
Strongly worded resolutions by
the Los Angeles City Council, the
Board of Supervisors and the Ameri-
can Legion; emphatic commendation
by educators in institutions of higher
learning, by officials of school sys-
TENS and even by high school stu.
dents themselves, confirm and affirm
the stand taken by the Los Angeles
Examiner after a careful objective
survey.
This was to be expected.
One need be no philosopher, peda-
gogue or erudite social observer to
realize that the study of our coun-
try's history is an ESSENTIAL OF
EDUCATION.
The most cursory glance at the
syllabi of our high schools, or a
casual chat with a high school
youngster, or neighborly exchange
with a parent, will bring out that
American history is perfunctory,
or "cineh" course, ebseufed during
one semester by multitude of other
topics and activities.
The result is inevitable.
