State Leaders Fail
To Find Red Teachers
(contgnued from first page)

(cont'nued from first page)
ty and self-sacrihcing devotion to
duty of the preponderant bulk of
Americas teachers" the senators
said, there are yet many hundreds
I of teachers who are Communists
These subversive elements in the
educational system, the report
went on, spread their influence
widely in the community. Then it
added:
"A Communist is not a fit per-
son to be placed or retained in a
position to influence the minds Of
the youth of America"
STATE PrObers Urged
The Senate group proposed that
state legislatures probe the situa-
tiOn as was done in New York in
i 1940-42, and urged that boards of
education take steps to remove
( teachers whose loyalty is proved to
be questionable.
Commenting on the u. S. Senate
groups report, State Senator Err
nest B. Benger (R-WestOver Hills)
4 the majority leader of the Delaware
I Senate. said:
II don't think the legislature is
the proper place for any investiga-
tion Of this sort. We've got law en-
ifOrcement authorities and / assume
that if evidence were brought to
our attention of Communist infiu-
ence in the schools, we could re-
quest the attorney generals Office
for an investigation"
DR.. Benger said that in his ex-
perience no interim committee,
which would be required in a mat
ter Of this sort, had been appoint
ed. He said that to discover evil
dences of Communist influence in
the schools would require ''real de-
tective methods" and the use Of
personnel and equipment which the
legislature does not have. AS far
as we know, there is no evidence
of Red influence" in the public
schools system.
Speaker of the House z. Albert
Jones (R-Claynlont) said there has
been no evidence of Eed influence
in the schools in Delaware, and he
is confident there is no such in
fluence.
Awaits Evidence
/ 81 personally feel that there are
no Communists among our teach
ers in our public schools" he said.
He added that in the event any
evidence were turned up, 81 think
the legislature should then take
the bull by the horns, find out what
is wrong, and correct it."
