Boarding Schools
There is also the possibility
that the student may be taken
out of school and placed in a
Boarding School. The boarding
school is common in the Soviet
Union, and is becoming more
popular all the time. We were
told that there were going to be
fourteen times as many board
ing schools built in 1860 as there
were in 1859. When we asked
why the boarding school was so
popular, we were told that it
was because of parent pres
sure" Boarding schools take the
place of orphanages for children
whose parents are dead or sepa-
rated. They serve as homes for
illegitimate children. Pare nj s
who, for some reason, are un-
able to properly raise their
children may place them in a
boarding school. Parents some
times pay part of the cost of the
boarding school. We were only
able to visit one boarding school
while we were in the Soviet Un-
ion, and it was impossible to
tell whether this boarding school
was typical of other boarding
schools. The curriculum appear
ed to be the same as in the US
ual Soviet Ten-Year School. The
students worked at many chores
such as cleaning, cooking, serv-
ing meals, etc. The students
were fed the usual four meals
and were provided with a place
to sleep. The boarding school we
visited was clean and very at
tractive, although very crowded.
Discipline seemed excellent.
Just as we, as Americans, can
not understand how Soviet citiz-
ems seem so willing to comics"
to their 'misdeeds," as B. L.
Pasternak, writer of DR.. Zhiva-
go has done, we cannot really
understand the discipline meth
ods of the Soviets. Like much
else in the Soviet system, we
must agree that it seems well
for them; we doubt that Ameri-
cans would want to copy much
from it, however.

Rehearsals will start this week
for local talent under the direc-
ton of w. Henry Ennis. Tickets
will be on sale with all Lions
Clubs in the state. 1t is suggest
ed that tickets be bought early
as the Clayton School auditori-
um will accommodate only 500
people each night. The proceeds
derived from the minstrel will
be used to carry on the many
worthy projects which the Lions
conduct in the community of
Clayton. They include the sup
port and upkeep of 6 hospital
beds, A wheel chairs, and 2 pairs
of crutches. This equipment is
loaned free to any person in
need of the articles. Also, food
orders to needy families; pur-
chase of glasses for children
who cannot afford them; pur-
chase of clothing for needy
children, a project with the as
sistance of the nurse at the

EDUCATION IN THE SOVIET UNION"
Russians Employ Social Pressures"
As School Disciplinary Measures
BY DIR. GEORGE v. KIRK
ject, 1927 Commerce ST.,
Smyrna, Delaware.

ject, 25-27 Commerce ST.,
Smyrna, Delaware.
Many people in the United
States assume that the schools
in the United States are poorly
disciplined. This reaction seems
to come about in part from the
publicity given to incidents in
large school systems in cities
such as New York. This type of
situation in its very worst form
has been publicized by such
movies as Blackboard Jungle"
We also hear great deal about
the strict discipline occurring in
the schools in Europe and, of
course, we would assume that
the same strict discipline occurs
in the schools of the Soviet Un-
ion.
1t was therefore of consider
able interest to the group visit
ing the Soviet Union to observe
the discipline in the Soviet
schools, and the methods which
the Soviet instructors used to
discipline the students.
We found, both in discussions
with the teachers, students, and
by general observations, that
physical discipline is not used to
any extent in the Soviet schools.
The Soviet teacher must not
strike a pupil under any circum-
stances.
When we asked Soviet teach
ers what they did in order to
discipline unruly students we
were told, first that there were
not many unruly students and
second, that the usual discipline
was "social pressure. If stu
dent misbehaves in class for ex-
ample-talks when he should
not) he is asked to stand, and
then after a minute or two is
told to be seated again. This
apparently has more effect on
the Soviet student than it would
have on the student in the U. S.
The second thing that occurs is
that the students name would
be placed on the bulletin board
and in several classes we OBJ
served these lists of students
who had misbehaved. Having
ones name placed on the bulle-
tin board is evidently serious
punishment.
Parents Disciplined, Too
The ultimate in punishment,
however, for a student who is
misbehaving does not stop with
the student. If student contin-
ues to misbehave the teacher
calls upon the parents and ex7
plains the situation. This usual
ly is sufficient to bring the stu
dent into line. If this does not
work, there are parents" or
"citizens" committees. Th e S
committees ask the parents OF
the student who is misbehaving
to appear at school or some 9TH
er central place. This committee
then explains the problem and
the parents are told that it is
about time they correct the sit
uation. 1t is not unusual for a
factory to post on it's bulletin
board the following type of no.

been misbehaving in school, .

Finally, Mr.. Walker attacked
Mr.. Owen for the latter'S

to prospective members which
declared that the NFFE was
not a union. Such statements
are harming the NFFE, Mr.
Walker declared.

ton, Mr.. Walker declared: !.

Of the union label, the title

II do not share in the view
that the day Of the union is

unions m m bership has
dropped 1900 during the last
four years "and the end isn't
in sight until we get new lead
ership." The NFFE reported
its present membership al
81, 900.
Mr.. Walsh also contended
that Mr.. Owen "flagrantly" dis
regarded the prerogatives o1
other NFFE officials and Exec
utive Council members in mat
ters on which they should be
consulted.
Meanwhile, the convention
was rocked yesterday when Mr.
Walker, the secretary-treas-
urer, in an emotion filled
speech charged Mr.. Owen with
dictatorial tactics and lack oi
good judgment. Mr.. Walker also
accused the NFFE chief of try
ing to start fist lights with him
on several occasions.
Remarks Expunged
After Mr.. Walkers report,
there was sharp debate among
the delegates on whether his
report should be eXpunged from
the ofiicial record. BY the mar
row vote Of 100 to 103, the con-
vention voted to expunge the
remarks from the off1cial pro-
ceedings.
However, by an overwhelm-
ing voice vote it set up an
investigating committee to 60
into the merits Of Mr.. Walkers
charges.

Another said it was the largest

homecoming for Fleet Admiral
Chester w. Nimitz after World
War II.
oil Depletion Stand
In appealing for the votes OF
Texas, where there are nearly
three to one more registered
Democrats than Republicans,
Mr.. Nixon placed himself on
record as favoring the 2712 per
cent oil depletion allowance
dear to the hearts of many in
that oil-producing State.
People who argue against it,
the Vice President said, don't
understand our individual en-
terprise system" and added:
"The oil depletion allowance
may make some Texans and
Californians rich in the oil
business, but it also makes the
American people rich in oil
that is produced as a result Of
the incentive that is given by
that allowance"
In his second visit to Cali
fornia, where 80 electoral votes
are at stake, since getting the
nomination, Mr.. Nixon was
welcomed by an airport crowd
of 1000 at San Francisco's air
port and by a throng at >the
rally in Union square esti-
mated by Police Chief Tom
Cahill at 10000.
He charged the Democrats
we're suffering considerable
strain" in determining how to
attack the administration by
saying it was at fault for an
uneasy" peace, then saying
the United States was a second
rate power without friends and
influence in the world, and are
now saying that while I'VE are
at peace and are the strongest
nation in the world /. that
we are losing strength and
prestige" That, the Vice Pres
ident said, is "just as wrong" d"
But it is important to rec
ognize," Mr.. Nixon added, that
If our policies are right-and
I believe they are-we must
pursue them with confidence.
Our leadership must continue
to provide the kind of national
security which President Eisen-
hover has provided for the last
seven years."

owen so he could file a special
report containing his charges,
Mr.. owen, however, refused to
recognize him, declaring he was
out of order at the time.
Mr.. Walsh then told news
men he will try again today to
file his special report. If he
fails to be recognized, Mr.,
Walsh said. he will submit the
report to the special investiga-
tions committee named to study
the charges made against Mr..
Owen by the unions secretary
treasurer, Leland Walker.
Hanrahan May Run
The convention of the here
tofore conservative NFFE seems
split down the middle on the
issue of whether Mr.. owen has
been a capable leader and
whether he has uSurped the
powers of some OF the unions
other officials.
Formal opposition to Mr..
owen was announced by Leo
Hanrahan, who will run against
Mr.. owen for the presidency
as a leader of the anti Owen
forces. 's-
Mr.. Hanrahan said he ex-
pected to give Mr.. Owen a close
race and that his chances Of
winning are pretty good"

Milwaukee, where he is an off,

Service. He has been active
in NFFE affairs for many years.
