Congress Heights Body
Supports School Board
After listening to addresses by A. J.
Ward and Krnest H. Daniels, of the
Board of Education, members of tho
Public Improvement Association of Con
gress Heights last night voted unani
mously In favor of tho present system.
It was suggested that If a change were
desired the Board of Education be
J given even more power than It now has.
The commissioners were invuea to De
present or send n representative to do
fend their proposal, but no one was
present.
AGAINST PEACE
TALKS, IN SCHOOLS
Asks If Board of Eduoation Has
Sanctioned Such Lectures
By Advocates.
Protesting against "neacc talks" given
In tho Washington schools, a nromlnent
professional man of Washington, who
askod thnt his name' bo withheld, wrote
The Times asking If tho lectures nro
sanctioned by tho Board of Educatlbn.
Tho particular lecture ho oblected to.
he stated, was that given by Mrs. Lucia
Ames Mead, at Western High School.
Text of Letter.
Tho letter follows:
"It would bo Interesting to know
whether the so-called 'peace' taliw
that ure being made before our
Washington public school children,
particularly at tho Western High
School tho past wook. have the sanc
tion of tho local educational board.
"Is It the sort of patriotism that
wc wish to Inculcate In our children,
that adequate preparation for na
tional defense Is foolish nnd unnoces
sarv7 As woll teach them that It Is
follv to Insure the home before tho
building Is In names, or thnt learning
to swim or even the handllnr of a.
boat Is waste of time until you see
your friend drowning In the tresm
beforo your eves. PARENT."
No general permission has been given
any peace organization to present propa
ganda In Washington schools, nor wilt
any be granted, according to Henry P.
Blnlr. president of tho Board of Elu
mtlon. . - t .
During the convention of the Woman s
Peace Party In' Washington, he x
plalncd, nermlsslon wns asked for MIM
Jnno Addams and others to talk In in
uchools. Other names. Mr. nialr snld,
probably included Mrs. Mtud.
"filno the request .primarily was for
Miss Addams," he stnted. "I believed
It would be a god thing for pupils to
henr a woman of her standing, know
ing that she would fully observe tho
proprieties.
Questions of Day.
"No organization, as such, has been
granted permission to glv peacn lec
tures In tho schools, and wc do not
purpoao to have them used for any
tort of propgonda. We oio anxious
that questions of the day, Including suf
lragc, preparedness, nnd ethers, should
bo discussed no lung as tho discussion
Is educational and not controversial."
Dr. Elmer S. tfewtup. principal of
Western High School, said ho did not
regard Mrs. Mead's lecturo as one
which violated tho proprle!es In any
degree.
' Sho confined herself to o presenta
tion of reasons why sho believed 1
would be Impossible for a foreign na
tion to mako f successful attack on
this country, nnd to Riving figures con
cerning the high coat of the prcuut
war.
"While nil may not hovo rgrecd with
her, I believe there wns no harm In
listening to her presentation of her
tiide or tho discussion of national defense."
