Wise Parent Should
, Watch Child's School
Progress Carefully

AS report card time nears, your
child is excited, tense-wondering
and perhaps worrying about what it
will tell. How would you feel if you
knew you, too, were going to be
marked on that card?
If the teachers opinion as to the
kind of parent you are were record
ed, would you rate an "a" or would
you funk?
Here are a few simple rules for
happier parents, teachers and chill
dren, from Better Homes and Gar
dens magazine:
l. Uphold the teacher in whatever
she does until you know absolutely
that she is wrong. Investigate if
necessary. Do not discuss the teach
er's questionable actions in front of
the children.
2. Occasionally visit to school is a
necessity, but don't barge in when
ever the mood strikes you. In
stead, send teacher note or tele-
phone her (not during school hours)
to find out the best time to come.
If she expects you, she will be
prepared and perhaps have sample
papers of the child's work to show
you, and you will both gain more
from the conference.
Tell Teacher About 1t.
3. If through your children, you
learn of incidents going on in school
that you feel should be curbed, con-
tact the teacher. She may be ig-
norant of the situation, but willing
and able to control it when informed,
4. Study your child's. report card,
particularly the comments by the
teacher. The parent who is on the
job attends the next PIT. A. meet
ing or plans to see the teacher at
school to discuss the situation. Com
bined home and school effort can
usually bring Sally's wandering
mind back to the job or convince Joe
that getting along with others is a
necessary part of living.
S. When Nancy comes home with
a tall tale, listen to her, but don't
fly into action before you know the
whole story. Any teacher is glad to
explain the incident if you don't go
to school with chip on your Shout
der.
Remember, children tend to en-
broider events, but when faced di-
rectly with gross elaboration are
likely to grin sheepishly and admit
their wrong. That puts you in a
very silly position if you have rant
ed and raved. Better go easy.
Be All Dressed Up.
6. When there is school visiting
day, be there, and 60 looking like
a million dollars so your child will
be proud to say, That's my Dad
and Nom" 1t boosts his value in
the eyes of his classmates no end.
Visiting days do serve a good pur-
pose in that you see your child
in relation to others. You see the
children with whom he spends many
hours day and the environment in
which he lives during those hours.
You will learn some of the newer
teaching methods and you'll be able
to size up the teacher fairly well,
allowing for her nervousness in be-
ing watched by a circle of critical
parents.
Your child's teacher needs your
help but not your interference. She
wants to be his friend and yours and
to see him progress according to his
ability. You may be sure she
will do all in her power to further
that progress. Help her!

Spaniel have never met. Until few
weeks ago, they had never even
heard of each other. But today there
is bond of friendship between them
that comes of mutual appreciation.
Four years ago, after the auto
mobile accident that broke his back,
Julius Flowers saw nothing ahead
of him but misery and bleakness.
He knew that he would never walk
again, and there was nothing to in
terrupt the monotony of endless
days and nights in the hospital
ward. ''It kind of got me down for
awhile" he explains.
One day volunteer worker gave
him some clay to work with, and
taught him some elementary lessons
in sculpture That was the begin
ming of a new life for Junius. In a
few weeks he had learned all that
his helpful friend could teach him,

Sculptor Frederick V. Guinzburg
for help. Mr.. Guinzburg, who served

Threaten TO Leave
WAR JOBS IF
NEGROES EMPLOYED

ALTON, ILL.,, Mar. l (ANP).-If
Negroes are hired to work in the
East Alton plant of the Western
Cartridge Co., the whites will quit
their jobs and return to their
farms, heiy told FEPC officials at
a special hearing in which % wit
nesses testified. The committee has
not yet announced a decision.
Trouble in East Alton began long
ago when the company was accused
of discriminating against the hiring
of Negro workers. Any interference
with production at the company's
East Alton cartridge plant and the
St. Louis Ordnance plant will af-
feet the overall war effort, Maj.
William P. Galley, of the St. Louis
regional office, charged.
Such an interruption, he said,
would stop production in the two
cartridge plants. The brass mill at
East Alton makes strip metal for
both cartridge plants.
Explaining how deep-seated the
feeling in the community is against
Negroes, Mayor Charles Vanpreter
of East Alton said that colored are
not allowed to work or live there. If
Negroes are permitted to move in
under government order, he further
stated, it might not be possible to
maintain order with the towns

But his second greatest wish has
been granted. His statue, cast in
bronze, will hang in the halls of
Tuskegee Institute, a tribute to
a great American scientist and also

many hours of volunteer service in
the operating room and blood bank
at Grasslands, went to see Junius.
He spent a short time explaining
some basic principles of sculpturing
to him. When Mr.. Guinzburg re-
turned few weeks later, every sim
gle word of advice had been trans
lated into Junius' work. Now Mr..
Guinzburg is continuing the lessons
twice weekly, encouraging Junius,
criticizing him, urging him on to
the finest standards of his art.
Junius Flowers never knew it be-
fore, but he has a real talent for
sculpture. Everything he has done,
painstakingly, flat on his back with
his head slightly raised on his pill
low, has received the unstinting
praise of men who know talent when
they see it.
Flowers recently completed low
relief head of George Washington
Carver, which artists consider a
masterpiece. Working from pic
lures, and from the many stories
about Carver which he has read,
he managed to put into his sculp-
ture the character and stature Of
that great man. The one thing Jun
ius wanted almost as much as he
wants to walk again, was to have
that head cast in bonze so that
he could present it to Tuskegee
Institute where he thinks it be-
longs. He confided that dream to
a New York reporter who printed
it in his paper.
At his home in Princeton, N. j.,
Mr.. Spaniel read the story of Jun
ius Flowers, and that same after
noon notified the sculptor that he
would like to pay for casting the

Washington Carver was one of the
really great Americans" he ex-
plains. "He made monumental con-
tribution to the life of the country
as whole, and particularly to the
industrial South. That in itself
would be sufficient to make one
want to see that he is given a
monument Then here comes this
fellow, Flowers, a fine artist in
his own right, with a monument to
this great man."

County School Head
Urges Public 10 Open
Homes 10 Teachers

Before the standards of Mont
gomery County public schools can
be raised, residents must learn that
teachers are human beings who re-
quire food, shelter and clothing, DR..
Edwin w. Broome, county superin-
tendent of schools, told an education
forum of the County League of
Women Voters yesterday in the Be-
thesda Womens Club.
Forty county teachers at the
present time are without homes" he
said. Residents complain about
the type of education their children
get, but are too selfish to open their
homes so teachers will have a place
to live"
Five teachers lost their homes last
week, he said, because the apart
ments in which they had temporary
quarters don't allow renters with
children.
A panel of four speakers including
DR.. Broome, F. K. Metzger, presi-
dent of the Board of Education:
Mrs. Richard Saunders of the
league and Irwin Wensink of the
Postwar Planning Committees Sub
committee on School Survey de-
scribed the objectives OF the county
school system and alayzed the means
by which these objectives might be
obtained.
The County Board OF Education
has no Embarrassing powers, Mr..
Metzger said. 1t can only draw a
plan for school development and ask
the county commissioners for money
with which to carry out this plan.
The Board of Education is usually
about five years ahead of the public
demands for school improvement,
Mr.. Metzger said. He added the
board should be given Embarrassing
powers to enable it to carry out its
own program.
Mr.. Wensink pointed out several
objective studies have proved the
current expenditure per pupil is the
most significant single factor in the
effectiveness of education. Mary
land is 10 per cent below the nation
al average in current expenditure,
and ranks 26th among the States.
Montgomery County runs only 5 per
cent above the States as whole.

piled by the Community War
Fund
@. Can't UNRRA take care of all
relief needs in devastated coun-
tries instead of raising funds for
foreign relief through the Commun-
ity War Fund?
A. UNRRA says no. 1t was set
up by agreement of all the United
Nations to meet the basic needs of
food, clothing and shelter in in
vaded countries which do not have
the foreign exchange to supply their
own needs. 1t never attempted to
provide all essential services, but
only the fundamentals necessary to
keep the people alive.
@. If more help is needed. why
don't we provide for it all through
UNRRA?
A. The Foreign Economic Admin
istration reported that the liberated
nations of Europe alone need $l0,-
100000 worth of aid from the
outside. The money UNRRA has is
all the member nations felt justified
in giving. If the uninyaded nations
