! In bliStering terms, the profes-
sor accused professional educators
of undermining democracy in the
manner of their teaching. His
charges came in an address and a
resolution, presented yesterday at
the associations council meeting
at the Mayflower Hotel.
| Basically, he asserted that true
intellectual training-aimed at
developing the capacity to think
and to understands being
shelved in favor of stress on un-
Irelated skills and isolated facts.
Vocational Emphasis Hit.
In addition to scattering shots
on many subjects which should
be handled by other agencies, he
blasted the so-called "life-adjust-
ment" program in schools, which
puts emphasis on vocational
training.
Public high schools teaching
programs are so important their
control Ought not be vested ex-
clusively in a narrow group of
secondary school administrators
and professional educators" the
resolution said. Scholars, scien-
lists and other professional men
must assume responsibility for
advising the public clearly and
continuously concerning the scien-
tific and scholarly soundness of
proposed changes in the curricula
of the public schools"
Schools concentrate on isolated
facts" and use them merely
as Illustrations the scholars
charged. so students get no idea
of a developing theme in the SUBJ
ject.
They said teachers are able to
advance themselves professionally
without knowing enough about
what they're supposed to teach.
Prof. Bestor was even more out
spoken in his talk which intro
duced the resolution.
THE real charge that I would
press this afternoon is the charge
that professional educators, in
their policy-making role. have
lowered the aims of the public
schools" he said.
He said a conference Of educa-
tors in 1945 adopted a resolution
fatty saying three out of every
five United States citizens "are in
capable of being benefited by in
tellectual training or even training
for skilled and desirable occupa-
tions."
Finding Challenged.
If that finding is true, he said,
"it is fact of the most shattering
significance, for it declares invalid
most of the assumptions that have
1underlain American democracy.
"It enthrones once again the an
cient doctrine that the majority of
the people are destined from birth
to be hewers of wood and drawers
of water to a select few who, by

The war interrupted the
young baritone's studies. For
three years he was a member

with his feet, wave his arms,

Sugar Workers Pass
Resolution
Backing Beet Price

In convention at Salt Lake
City, Utah, April %, "a and Is,
delegates of the International
Council of Sugar Workers and
Allied Industries Unions passed
a resolution asking for a price
for sugar beetS equal to at
least parity. ri
Those attending from the
Hardin factory union local were
E. j.. WISER and Fred Cation.
The resolution stated that
the group request the Secre-
tary of Agriculture to issue a
statement at once reaSSuring
the sugar beet growers in the
United States of a price for
sugar that will provide a price
for sugar beets equal to at
least parity, which will provide
an incentive for them to plant
and grow a crop of sugar beets
that will more nearly produce
the domestic sugar quota of L.
800, 1000 tons of sugar for con-
sumner consumption which will
prevent the further closing of
presently operating beet sugar
factories now operating in the
states of Ohio, Michigan, Wis
consin, Minnesota, Iowa, Kan
saS, Nebraska, Colorado, Wyo-
oming, Montana, Utah, Idaho,
Oregon, Washington, California
and South Dakota" q"
The resolution stated the
closing down of sugar factories
not only threatens the contin-
ued operation of the beet sugar
industry but also is a severe
detriment to the livestock and
feeding industry which is very
dependent on sugar beet by
products for cattle feeding.
}"It is necessary to have a
stabilized price for sugar at a
level high enough to assure
beet growers a price equal to
at least parity in order that
the beet sugar companies may
have an operation that will
prevent the laying off. of large
numbers of permanent sugar
factory employees, the resolu-
ton stated.
The heavy reduction in the
growing of sugar beetS in past
several years in the states
where sugar beets are grown
has resulted in the closing
down of beet sugar factories as
well as very short aIrlpaigns,
with the result of a financial
loss. to all interests concerned
in the communities where sug-
ar factories are located and to
the respective states in general,
it was stated. q
