The U. B. nurcnti of Education, which Is a branch of tho Interior dopnrtment, Is mndo up of approximately 200 em ploycfa. Of tills number 130 appaur on tlio official roll oh drawing a nnlnry of t per yoar. Tho Kotirco from -which thesn men aro paid Is unknown. It Is known In general, however, that norno of tnCui get their Biilurles from tho ltockefellor Oonor al Education board and so mo from the Hugo Foundation or other bIiiiI lnr ondowments of private capital. Tho roporiH made by tlicse cinployeeH go out as govornmeut publications with the full preMlgo of official en dorHpiuent upon them. Ileprcsentntlvo Hagsdalo of South Carolina promised a month ago to look Into this matter and find offi cially for tho benefit of congrecs who jinys tho salnrles of those employees in tho bureau of educntloti. lie was rhallrnged to do so by Kdward .1. Ward, who appeared boforo tho com jnltteo In favor of a school forum bill for tlio District of Columbia and who told Itugsdulo that "he who pnyn tha piper ealln tliu tune." Ward ban been anxious to get tho mntter Inves tigated. Itagsdalo hits not yet mov ed. 1'iKcon Hand Writes Another authority for an Investi gation Into this matter Is Frank I. Walsh, chairman of tho commltteo on Industrial relations. Tho lnttcr'B attention was first called to tho sit uation in tho bureau of education by (ho circulation a short tlmo ago of n pamphlot on "Industrial Kducn tlon," propnrcd by tho National Ah noclatlon of Manufacturers, and dis tributed under government authori ty by tho bureau of education. In a letter to V. V, Claxton, commissioner of education, Mr. Walsh denounces this pamphlet In unmeasured terms, calling attention to tho fact that tho National Association of Manufactur ers, tho author of tha pamphlet, Is the namo body 'exposed In tho so-called Mulhall oxposo, when It appearod that wholcsalo bribery was used by ths organization In Influencing elec tions and attempting to Influenco legislation. Mr. Walsh wrote to Com missioner Claxten: "1 cannot too strongly protest against tho action of a government official, appointed and paid to pro moto tbo education ot tho nation's youth, In thus giving recognition, sanction and approval to an organ isation which has been discredited In tho minds of alt docont cltUena who aro familiar with Its record as a cor rupting agency In publlo life and n champion of the grossest and most vhamoful forms of exploitation. OppoMl Child IjiIk.i- lllll "At tbo very tlmo when you woro engaged In spreading the propagan da of this organization, its official legislative representatives, tho no torious J. A. Kmery. was appearing boforo commit toeij of congress In op position to tho Keating child labor Mil, and ho thero Mated that, In at tempting to block legislation to keep children under fonrtcon out of south ern rotton mills, he was acting for the board of directors of tho associa tion whoso literature you aro dlstrlb utlng. "A report on tho Industrial educa tion of our children, published 1) uch an organization, would, to those familiar with Its records, entry as much wolght and no nvoro than a re port on tho moral welfare of Ameri can girls If lwjuod by a notorious lnnd of procurers. "Yot. by lending tho government stamp of approval to this document, you hnvo placed It In the bands of thousands of men uud women who may bo deceived by this misuse of Kovorumcut authority, and whoso vloup on tho greatest educational Is sti ir tho thno may thus be uncou pclnusly perverted. Itenort I ficlecled "Without giving the pamphlet an intrant's consideration, it yhould bYit been enouRh for you that It was ytuhllKknti by the National Assocla ttftit of Manufacturers, an organiza tion that has earned tho contempt of tko American people." Xr. Walsh charged that Commls loer Claxton had deliberately bo leitMt the report of tho N. A. M. for Attribution, and UQted parages In which child labor was defended and ndvocated.
