VXGE FOUR BEDFORD MAIL TRIBTJXE, MEDFORD, OEEGOX. TUESDAY. JULY 2. 1933. FOUR BILLION FOR BEFORE TEACHERS Government Should Assume Half of Cost Says Colum bia University Professor at Convention of N. E. A DENVER. July a. UP) Amerlca'a minion teaehera were tow in a diw tllng address by Prof. Jesse H. Newlon of Columbia university, that they should number two million and their two billion dollar snnuai ouagei should be doubled. Prof. Newlon. director since 1927 of the Unooln School of Teschers col lege at Columbia, spoke to the Na tional Education association conven tion. A third of U.000 delegates sought seat In the municipal auditorium for the first general session while three score allied study and discussion groups spread over this mlle-hlgh city for five days of Intensive activity. Need Enlightened Curriculum. "Build a socially enlightened cur riculum." admonished Prof. Newlon, saying, "Education should be delib erately employed for the preservation .nd for the resllmtlon of democracy " . 'The United atatea," he said, 'Is amply able to provide, even In these depression years, four billion dollars annually for school and can anoru nothing less. The national govern' ment should Immediately assume one-half of the total cost of public elementary, secondary and higher education. The contribution of the national government should be Im mediately fixed at not less than one billion dollars and Increased over a relatively brief period of years to two billions." Individualism Fading. Prof. Newlon asserted "the age of lslsses falre Individualism 1 oloalng although the National (so-called Lib. erty league and the so-called 'grass. rooters' may not know It. " Democracy demands thst humsn wel fare be put bov. profits. The great task of the school Is no longer preparing the Individual to oompete for pecuniary success In a highly com petltlve society, for we no longer Irve In a highly competitive society. "Its prlmitry task." he said, "Is to give the Individual a realistic under atandlng of society." "Lest someone raise the bogey of Indoctrination, let me emphasize that this does not mean that a detailed blueprint of a new social order should be taught In the school, nor that the school should be employed aa an In strument of propaganda. On the other hand, the school cannot, should not, and will not, be neutral In the struggle of social forces now going on In this country." Later the educator said, "Let no one tell you It la unpatrlotie to ad Tocste amendment to the constitu tion." Teachers Have Klgllt. "The teachers of this country hare aa much right to be heard and as great n obligation to participate In the making of vital political, eco nomic and social decisions as have the organized farmers, or organized labor, or the United suites chamber of commerce," Prof. Newlon asserted, "but our llance must always be on the processes of democracy and edu cation, on the good -will and good sense of the American people. Meanwhile the association's legisla tive committee drafted a report re questing congress to snact a perma nent federal aid plan expending 800 million dollars annually. The federal aid figure represents 10 annually for each of sn estimated 30 million American public school children. This expenditure, Hull pointed out, Is In addition to another 300 million dollar request for public works funds for construction of schools. That would serve as an emergency program Tne permanent fund, he explained, would be used In operating elemen tary and high schools snd would be distributed among the states accord ing to their wealth and numerical requirement.
