persuaded into accepting the
proposition that the public school
is the true American school, and
that, therefore, it is the only one
de- rving of attention, the Prelate
told more than 1000 men attend
Ing a Communion breakfast here.
He called this utterly false
and misleading" and said it is a
clear indication" of socialist
thinking.
The Bishop added that his
remarks did not constitute an
attack upon the public schools.
but rather unon "a strong pop
ular impression" He stated that
his attitude toward public
schools was q "eompoUnd of
admiration and entire good
will"
The idea that schools other
than public schools are "back-
waters or eddieS IN the main
current OF American thought has
been implanted in the vast un-
informed mind of the American
public" by great organizations
of wealth and power" he said.
These organizations, he con-
tinued, are working to convince
America that private or church
related schools "are suspect and
counter to the best interests of
the nation, that they are diyisiye
and that no good can possibly
com. from them
As for socialist thinking, the
Bishop said it was quite clear
in my own mind that it is being
manifested right now in Ameri-
can ublic education He said the
socialism is that tendency in So
cial thinking and action that de-
stroys the delicate balance be-
tween the individual and the So
ciety of which he is part"

Plans For Better
Bands AT London
Schools Underway

A campaign is under way in the
Music Department of the London
Public Schools to recruit students
for the school band. Students from
the fifth through the ninth grades
are needed to start instruction on
a band instrument to maintain a
well-balanced band in the future,
according to Director Ray Creigh-
ton.
Parents generally desire that
their children play some musical
instruments, and the schools offer
the opportunity for them to do so.
Unfortunately, every child is not
naturally adapted to playing a mu-
sical instrument.
In order to determine those best
suited to participate. scientific
tests have been given to determine
the inherent musical ability of the
children. Arrangements will be
made whereby instruments may be
rented for three months to make
sure the children will succeed be-
fore further investment is made.
Parents whose children successful
ly pass the test will be notified.

American Legion members of
Madison Post los heard the De-
partment Commander at their an
nual Veterans Day program
Monday evening at the Methodist
Church. And they heard him tell
them that the Legion wanted to
remember three wars, and no
more that the plans of the
Legion were for peace and care
for the veterans of the wars which
nave already been fought, and a
ready reserve for emergencies.
In the address by Commander
Fred w. Thacker of the Depart
ment of Ohio, veterans were told
that they, have big responsibility

great sacrifices during World War

War II and Korean Veterans the
many benefits after their separa-

Thacker also emphasized the
need for strong reserve, and told
the group that the Legion is still
lighting for compulsory military
training program He pointed out
that the amended Legion plan for
the program, which made the
training voluntary, was a failure.
He said Legion forces will ask for
compulsory training at the coming
session of Congress.
He emphasized that if the Unit
ed States should be drawn into a
war, it would be necessary for the
World War II and the Korean Vet
Grams to be called to duty. He said
that the veterans would not be suf-
hclent, because they have not kept
pace with military Developments.
and are not as well prepared as
would be well trained reserves He
said that this country must be pre-
pared with we'll trained emergency
troops, and these must come from
compulsory training.
He also noted that the Legion is
seeking pensions for disabled
World War veterans who reach
the age of SIS and have insufficient
income to live comfortably. He
stressed that the veterans should
be paid the moral debts due them
for their part in protecting the
right of all.
In his closing remarks Thacker
asked for local support for the
measures the Legion will have in
troduced to Congress in the next
session.
