Over-Crowding In
Schools Is Poor
Business Venture
BY OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON
Sometimes iy is possible to sug
gest panaceasjfor things that need
righting. Agaln not. One of the
Jatter concerns the over-crowding
of schools.
The chairman of the committee
on education of community council
of New York, Mr. George D. Frieu,
makes the following statement:
“rhe crowded schools will pro
duce tens of thousands, of pupils,
with anti-social complexes and re
tarded emotion development; who,
with absolute certainty, will gra
quate into erime and various forms
of insanity and emotional instabi
lity. During the next 20 yeéars a
large percentage will be public‘
charges in criminal institutions and
h(),\pit‘dls. for the insane.”
(onditions .of over-crowding are‘
more acute in some places, of cour
se, than others, but it is true thatl
in hundreds of cities large and
«mall over the country theére has|
peen no money to care for naturall
expansion.
Classes are Overcrowded
In some cases where whole build
ings have been closed and the pup
ils transferred to distant schools,
teachers have had to do the best‘
they could with classes mnearer a
hundred than the average of fifty,
which is apout the limit of anyone’s
capacity to direct and teach.
When this condition exists two
things naturally follow. First ofl
all, a_certain type of group or mob
psychology takes hold. ~Children
are quick to see when matters are
out of centrol.
The other is thav children, act
ing as individuals ‘in classes of
limited numbers, lose incentive to
study in mass formation. To say
nothing about the driven teacher
herself who, under such circum-!
stances, must feel hopelessly beat
en and discouraged.
In schools where pupils can at
tend only half-sessions, to make
room for the over-flow the other
half of the day, conditions -are still
worse. They are running loose on
the streets. This is the actual
cause of the crime tendency men
tioned by Mr. Frieu.
Not Practical In Cities 1
I offer no panacea for the situa—‘
tion, and what I héwve in mind would
not affect the large city school in
the least. But this little sugges-\
tion, a hang-over from the fresh-l
air-fiend days, may be workable in!
a suburban or country community:
to a certain extent, now that springi
is here, ‘
Abroad the outof-door school is'
more popular than here in the
United States, especially in coun
tries where weather »ermits them}
much of the year. At that there
have been established certain
therapeutic schools from time to
time in latitudes so cold the sma]l}
patients had to sit out under the
sky in “sleeping bags.” Which goes‘
to show that an idea is often work«
able under the most adverse con=
ditions. ¥
What is learned in the open air
is retained 90 per cent, so it has
been proved. The lift to morale is
remarkable also. Sometimes I won
der why we are so wedded to walls
and windows when there is so much
free space going to waste outside.
Teachers Still a Problem
Of course, this method does not
help with the problem of more
teachers. And there would be days
when weather would not permit any
al fresco study. But here and there
the idea may be usable just be
cause it looks se very impossible.
Things sometimes work out that!
As for crowded city schools, per
haps the dire results predicted by
Mr. Frieu may be milder than he
thinks. My own reaction is that
lowered home standards are a still
more likely menace to child welfare
and mental stability. ILet us hope
with prayer that conditions improve
mightily enough in* the next few
vears to reclaim those little un
derprivileged ones already damage
ed.

due to governmental borrowing to
pay expenses of war and that
higher taves will prevent price
inflation.
Infilation, he said, “is at the out
set produced by shortages and
panicky . counter-bidding for the
supply. No better proof of this'
could be given than Mr. Flynn's
own able showing that our vast‘
war-time price inflation was very
largely produced before we got into'

usual governmental borrowing,

the Flynn plan is that it proceeds

WALLACE FLAYED }
ATLANTA, Ga— (&) —Cotton
farmers from CGeorgia and nearby |
states went about their tasks to
day with the assurance from Secs
retary Wallace that the cottoh
processing tax will be cominued‘
but an expression of resentment‘
at the secretary's speech here
came from the textile industry.
Invading the state of Governor
Eugene Talmadge, one of the
most outspoken opponents of the |
AAA, and a frequent critic of the
secretary himself, Wallace Satur-l
day afternoon told several hun-l
dred farmers and farm leaders’
that continued opposition to the |
processing tax might bring down
on the textile industry ‘“‘something
more extreme” if they destroy the
Agreiultural Adjustment program.
In asserting that the coiton pro
cessing tax will remain in effect,
Wallace said “the effort of cer
tain textile manufacturers to get
rid of the processing tax is the’
spearhead of the movement”
against the cotton program.
Dorr Hits Wallace
In New York yesterday, G. H.
Dorr, preisdent of the Cotton Tex
tile Institute, issued a statement
accusing Secretary ‘Wallace of
missgtating the attitude of textile
manufacturers toward the pro
cessing tax.
“We in the textile industry re
gret, and 1 may say resent, the
statements reported . . . made by
the Secretary of Agriculture to
the cotton farmers of the state of
Georgia,” Dorr said.
“He misunderstands and conse
quently misstates the attitude of
the cotton textild manufacurers
toward the cotton program. They
have not attacked the payments
to cotton farmers necessary to
enable them to receive what con
gress has determined to be a fair
price for their product. They
have attacked, and will centinue
to attack, the method used to
raise the money for this purpose,
They will ultimately succeed in
this attack for the processing tax
is unsound and sooner or later
bound to go.”
Wallace's afternoon audience
adopted a resolution endorsing
the program and praising the ad
ministration for waising the cot
ton proucer “from a state of
bankruptcy to a state of hope.”
