ROLE OF RURAL SCHOOLS

The function of rural education is
at last beginning to receive tie at
tention which has long been its due.
For many years it was held that the
little red schol house" with it's three
RS was all that was necessary.
However, with the changes of the
years bringing hard-surfaced roads,
altos, and buses, it became evident
that there could be a central school
building to which the pupils could be
easily transported and economics
could be effected in administration
and teaching.
The aim now is, as pointed out in
the November issue of the Journal OF
tie Montana Education Association,
to bring the rural schools up to the
level of the best city schools. To
achieve this aim several factors are
involved One is to attract better
trained teachers and to do this two
things are necessary-higher salar-
les and satisfactory living quarters.
This leads to consideration of tie
question as to where the money is
coming from to do these admittedly
desirable things. Two methods are
under consideration. One is to obtain
the money from sources outside the
rural community, either the State or
Federal Government or both (both
wrong). The otker is for the commu-
mites themselves to strive toward
and ultimately demand better schools
and, by taxing themselves sufficiently,
to provide them. Fear OF control OF
the schools from Washington has
ruled out consideration of federal aid
IN many localities. Also, some COM
munities do not want domination
from their own state capitol. The par
ent-teacher associations have it in
ter power to develop powerful
public opinion in support of policy
IF locally paid-for and locally-con-
tlolled public schools. In democracy
tnese are questions which rest with
the people of the local communities.
There are those who hold that many
states would go bankrupt were they
TO be as Indifferent and careless about
tkeir financial resources as some OF
them are about their human resour-
ces. The Montana Journal closes an
editorial discussion of this subject
with the apt observation: "If rural
people can get new vision of what
their schools might accomplish, and
can become aware of their own abil-
ity to improve conditions, the rural
schools can become centers of service
in building individual lives. enrich
ing community living, and vitalizing
the American way of life"

mo NEW TAXES" SAYS o'CoNOR

With assurances from Governor
Herbert r. O'Conor that no new taxes
would be asked for during the ses-
sion, and that the policy of gradual
elimination of the real estate tax
would be pressed, the 1945 session
of the General Assembly of Maryland
got underway in the State House, at
Annapolis, Jan. 3rd.
Financially, Governor OConor
pointed out, the State has never been
in a sounder position, it's credit rank
ing with the highest among the States
of the Country The present bonded
debt of the State, of $27, $50, 200, re-
fleets a total reduction under his
administration of more than $21,-
100000 AT the same time, he point
ed out that the present real estat 2
and property tax rate is the lowest
it has been since the Civil War and
that tke State has been operating on
balanced budget throughout the
six years of the administration.
With healthy surplus assured FOR
the end of the fiscal year on June 80,
Governor O'Conor indicated that he
will ask TIE Legislature to va.
mark" a substantial portion OF the
unencumbered funds for postwar
construction purposes, to add to the
approximately $2,500,000 already al
lotted for this purpose and to which
the balance of the War and Peace
time Emergency Funds will be added
at the close of the fiscal year.
Expansion of public education,
health and conservation programs
will be high on the administration
list for the session. Betterment of the
Public School System, with increased
pay for the States white and color
ed teachers, and program of Medi-
cal care for the INDECENT and madi-
cally INDECENT persons of the counties
have been announced and will be
supplemented with tie necessary ap-
preparations.

Paper Most Widely Used
Of American Commodities

The per capita consumption of pa
per in the United States is greater
than that of any other commodity,
with the exception of water and
milk, and is more than twice that
of meat, DR.. Martin Williams of
the University of Alabama says in
survey of Economics of the Kraft
Paper Industry
In 1941, when the per capita con-
sumption of paper was 300 pounds,
the consumption by classes was as
follows: paperboard, 1913 pounds;
newsprint, SO; wrapping paper, 40;
book paper, 30; fine paper, IL; It's
sue paper, IA; and all other
kinds, %.
'"This annual consumption is ex-
pected to increase for several years
with the largest expected increase
in boards, wrapping and bag pa
pers, for which large part of the
present kraft production is now
used" according to DR.. Williams.
1.-THE use of kraft pulp in the
manufacture, of all other types of
paper is also expected to increase
and it is possible that the total
annual kraft pulp capacity in the
United States will reach 100000
tons by 1850, a SO per cent increase
over 1943."

The task of absorbing into civilian

The task of absorbing into civilian
activities some 100000 service
men and women will tax all the re-
sources of this nation" says the Rev.
DR.. John Sutherland Bonnell, of New
York, who recently interviewed many
men in military hospitals. mo matter
how adequate may be the Govern
ment's provision for the social, voca-
tional, and educational needs of re-
turned service men, the distinctive
opportunities of the Church will still
remain. :. The most difficult problem
will be the large group of men who
will return with evident symptoms of
emotional maladjustment. Some of
these symptoms will be depression
and apathy; irritability, belligerency,
bitterness; deep anxiety, sometimes
expressed in symptoms of simulated
yhysical illness; tenseness, restless
less, insomnia; attitude of withdraw
Il, daydreaming, seclusiveness; feel
ngs of guilt because they believe that
hey have failed buddy or their unit
)r because of some moral Delinquent
y. We must be prepared for mark
I'd increase in the use of drink,
chain smoking, and profanity. :. +.
t is important that there be rapid
increase in the number of trained
counsellors in the ministry many re-
turning men will first come to their
pastors for help. Tie serviceman
must be shown at peace, with cru
SADIE against poverty, intolerance,
prejudices, and social iniquities, will
call for all and more than the ideal
ism he expressed in war. Particularly
may these servicemen, in common
with all of us, be challenged to en-
sure that their comrades who Fave
laid down their lives in the hope of
a better world will not have died in
vain"

STRIKES AND STATISTICS

A favorite statistical myth promot-
cd by government spokesman, is that
since Pearl Harbor, only one-tenth of
enc per cent of man hours have been
lost by strikes in war plants.
AS the New York Times declares
of this statistical myth: "It cannot
be too often pointed out that such
statistics are essentially meaningless,
not only because they fail to take
into consideration the amount of in
direct idleness that strike involves,
but because they ignore how vital the
particular production may beb that
is brought to halt.
1.-THE value of the productc of the
entire soft coal industry of the Uni
ted States, to cite but one example,
amounts to only one per cent of the
national income. If strike stopped
it for an entire year, the statistics
might show that there were no
strikes in 80 per cent of industry.
But everyone knows that such u
strike would bring practically our en-
tire war production to halt in few
months"

THE HIGHWAYS

The best highways of the United
States are not nearly as good as they
were four or five years ago, despite
all the restrictions on the use of sew
eral million automobiles. Heavy We
hicles carrying great loads of supplies
for the war, and for civilian purposes
have left their deep scars on surfaced
roads everywhere.
Before the war there was good pro-
gress made in the direction of build
ing excellent farm-to-market roads,
but that class of road work was also
suspended.
At the present time there is a
growing interest in Congress in a
new Federal Aid Road works pro-
gram.
In looking around for practical OBJ
jectives through which the Federal
Government can do it's share in fur
nishing employment to returning sol
diers most of our Representatives
on Capitol Hill are in favor of stimu-
lating, in very large way, public
works program which will help cush-
ion the shocks, occasioned by tie
transition of war time economy to
a peace time economy. Certainly mon
ey spent on American highways is
for very necessary and worthy pur-
poses.

New Mechanical Brain
Directs Pilots Gunhre

A new mechanical brain" gum
sight which directs the machine
gun fire of combat planes is giving
Allied pilots greatly increased shoot
ing efficiency in the European the
atre. The pilot "dials" the type of
plane his enemy is flying, the range,
and other factors, and the gunsight
electrically directs his accurate,
hard-hitting fire from there on.
The instrument is an electrical
gyro computing mechanism consist
ing principally of sighting head
through which the pilot sees the
target. Superimposed on the target,
he sees circle of illuminated dots
produced by the sight mechanism.
The pilots task is to keep the enemy
target within the gyro-controlled
circle.
AS he goes in to attack, the pilot
makes few simple adjustments.
He turns lever to Uniform"
the sight of the wing span of the
plane he is attacking by another de-
vice. He adjusts the circle of dots
to circumscribe the varying size of
the plane as it approaches or re-
cedes. This combination of adjust
ments on the pilots part furnishes
the necessary information so the
sight can compute the targets
range. The pilot also adjusts other
controls that provide the sight with
air-speed and altitude data.

AS result of recent developments
in chemical methods for the deter
nination of vitamins in foods and
pharmaceutical products, the use of
test animals such as rats, guinea
pigs, etc., for estimating these nu-
trients, has decreased markedly.
The chemical methods are far more
precise and rapid than the biological
technics and less costly. However,
the chemical procedures for liberat-
ing the vitamins from the materials
to be tested are not exactly dupli-
Gated in the human digestive sys-
tenn. Thus all of the vitamin found
in product by chemical analysis
may not be completely available to
the body, the unavailable portion be-
ing of no nutritional value.

Dried Foods

Drying is one of the many ways
to save surplus foods. Though it
should not take the place of freez-
ing, canning, or storing, drying can
supplement the stores of preserved
foods and add variety to winter eat
ing. For years, corn and apples
have been dried satisfactorily. A
wide variety of other fruits and
vegetables may be dried, but be-
fore starting an, extensive program,
one should know whether the family
likes dried foods, which foods are
suitable for drying, and whether
good procedures can be followed. In
winter the dried foods need to be
supplemented with fresh ones to as
sure the family of a palatable and
nutritious diet.

Britain turned eXperim entally to
iron in shipbuilding largely because
her supply of shipbuilding timber
had become very scarce and expen-
sive. Canal boats of iron were used
as early as 1888. AS time passed,
larger ships were constructed and
one, "Ironsides," a sailing vessel,
actually sailed across the Atlantic
in 1889. A few iron steamers were
built, and showed interesting posi-
bilities. The ironmasters of Eng
land shreWdly sensed industry pos
sibilities in the trend, formed trade
association for the sole purpose OF
promoting the use of iron for ship
building and to cooperate in the solu-
ton of the engineering problems.

There are some 5000 foreign stu
dents enrolled in the colleges and
universities of the United States this
year, despite the descriptions and
changes in student life made by the
war, according to the Committee on
Friendly Relations Among Foreign
Students, an organization maintained
by the Protestant churches and mis-
sion agencies of this country. Because
of the war, there has been a falling
off in students from all Oriental
countries, but the number las been
about compensated for by the influx
of students from South and Central
America.
