Waycross (Monday) Herald.
The Georgia Educational As
sociation, at its last meeting pass
ed unanimously a resolution in
troduced by jerre M. Pound that
recommends several most radical
changes in the laws of Georgia
governing schools, and school
books. The resolution follows :
{ “Be it resolved, first, That we
unsparingly condemn the present
method of electing county school
superintendents, as defeating the
very purpose of its creation, and
as bad in theory and worse in
practice, since we have had cause
‘to know by a fair, unprejudiced
but painful trial, that this official
for the sake of the children and
in justice to the people, who pay
the taxes, ought to be highly
trained and unusually skilled in
all school administration ; that to
secure such men all laws requir
ing that they should be citizens
of the county in which they serve
ought to be annulled; and that
the selection of these officials
should be placed in the hands of
competent boards, who shall be
required ‘?bove all things to se
cure-mert of special training for
their work, wherever they may be
found, as encumbent of these
most vital offices. !
“Resolved, secondly, That we
believe the schools of the state
ought to be kept in close touch
with the people, that to this end
the authorities who directly con
trol them should be responsible to
the people, and that‘ therefore,
the members of the board of edu
cation, and not the superinten
dent, who, in the last analysis, is
‘hut their executive officer, should
be elected by popular vote.
\ “Resolved, thirdly, That we re
iitcratc with absolute unanimity,
our belief that the curse of illiter
acy can never be banished from
this state nor every child receive
his right to a fair chance in life
until it shall be as unlawful, as
is immoral and unmoral, for any
child in sound body and mind to
be deprived hy any preventable
cause of reasbnable amount of
schooling; and that we demand
with no uncertain voice, the early
passage of some effective laws
concerning compulsory school at
tendance. 1
“Resolved, fourthly, That if, to
secure syich laws and make them
ceffective, it is necessary to fur
nish tree books to the child, in
the minds of any considerable
portion of our people, the thought
that some children being poor,
will find it difficult or impossible
to procure the required books and
it, therefore, will be tyranny to
compel such children to attend
school, constitutes an insparabale
obstacle to such laws, we recom
mend thar the state provide,
through organization, for such
children, or if need be, for all its
children, free, but good and suit
able hooks to be bought in open
market and from the fairest bid
der.
“Resolved, fifthly, That we be
lieve the siate ought to provide
a reasonable and certain revenue
for all its schools, whether high
or low, and that to this end, defi
nite portions of its income ought
te: Le assigned them by constitu
tional provisions so as to prevent
the Eiennial—sometimes annual
uncertainties embarassments and
paralysis in <chool administration
as well as the unseemly and al
most disgraceful scrambles for
school appr epriations incident to
every session «f the legislature.
“Resolved, sixthly, That the ex
isting mc:ned of disbursing pub
lic moneys among the counties
for schoo! purprses on the basis
of school populavon alone, is
wasteful, and unscientific in the
extreme, conducive to many of
the ills that =fict our contmon
school system, and ought to be
replaced 1+ seme more equitable
system, whichi will stimulate
greater educational dctivity in all
our counties, :
"Resolved, seventhly, That we.
Dbelieve the state has gone far
snough in the matter of legisla
tive appropriations for the com
mon schools; that these schools
can never be more efficient than
they now are until they shall be
organized with the county as the
administrative unit, and™ the
county be required to supplement
what it receives from the state
with local taxes of not less than
1 prescribed mileage.
“Resolved, finally, That inas
much as the constitution of 1877
has already outlived the genera
tion that wrote it, as it was writ
ten to defend our people from
conditions that do not any longer
DIXIE SHORT ROUTE
i MINSTRELS TO TRAVEL
'Will Play All Principal Cities On
the Dixie Short Route.
Rhe Dixie Short Route Mins
trels, which met with such bril
liant success here, is planning a
tour, in which they will play all
the principal cities and towns on
the Dixie Short Route.
Although mostly amateurs,
these boys have shown most unus
ual talent in several productions
and with the expert training they
are now receiving in preparation,
will undoubtedly make a big hit
on the road. Managers Barfield
& Saunders are arranging to bill
the show at all the theaters on the
Central Route Highway for some
time in the early fall or late sum
mer.
We should all be with these
boys, figuratively speaking, as
they are all home boys and on the
trip will advertise the city. Itis a
good crowd with a good show in
a good cause and should have
good support.
SOUTHERN MILLS CON
SUME MORE COTTON
Wshington, D..C.,, June 5.
“The Statistics of cotton con
sumption issued by the United
States Census office from month
to month show the continued
growth of the cotton textile in
dustry of the South,” said Presi
dent Harrison, of the Southern
Railway Comany, today.
“The latest report issued shows
that in the month of April, 1916,
Southern cotton mills consumed
298.186 bales, an increase over
last year of 21,268 bales, or 7.68
per cent, while mills in all other
states consumed only 276918
bales, a decrease of 3,561 bales,
or 1.5 per cent, as compared with
last year. For the nine months
ended April 30, consumption in
Southern mills incerased 17.42
per cent over last year, while in
all other States the increase was
only 15.06 per cent.”
