arEDFORD MAIL TRTBTTN"E, rEDFORD. OBEGOX, THURSDAY, SEPTEfBER 17, 19311 PA'flE THREE RENEWS BATTLE Advocates Claim Practice Results in Self-Reliance Opponents Say Reliance in Others Is Fostered Bjr Eddie Gilmore Associated, Press StaXI Writer WASHINGTON, Sept. 17. (JP) The raising of the curtain for the 1936 school season finds that perennial villain home work still cast in a controversial rola. "Home study," said J. P- Rogers, specialist for the United States of fice of education. "Is cussed and dis cussed. They even have laws against It. ' Within the last 25 years the take-your-book-home advocates have ar gued that it results In: Self-reliance. Obedience. A better cultural level In the home. Honesty. Just as passionately, Mr. Rogers points out, its opponents have con tended that home study results In: Relionce on others. Worry for parents. . Loss of sleep. Deceit. "Home work was forbidden by law, for children under 15, In California In 1901," the specialist said. "This act was recoked in 1916, but Los An geleB has recently abolished home work In the first eight grades and In the remaining grades over the week end." There is a definite trend toward the no home work goal, yet many teach ers and parents swear by home study. Rogers has made a study of both Ides and has thrown his weight witn the objectors. "One must except," he said, "either Injury to health or the exhibition of self protective traits If home work la either excessive or unsuitable, and there goes along with these results a waste of time which might be spent more educationally." aMariretr Livestock PORTLAND.

Bone United States senator from Washington told Veterans of Foreign Wars in annual encampment today. Major General Smedley D. Butler, retired, of the United States marina corps, another speaker, indicated his extemporaneous address would ampli fy his earlier remarks at the conven tion that "I'll never fight in a for eign land again," and "let the inter national bankers collect their own ww debts." Butler's speech was postponed from yesterday to give him time to re cover from "a hell of a sore throat." Kuropft Preparing "America must choose between war profits and peace.' asserted Senator Bone. "As I speak to you today that mad house known as Europe is feverishly preparing for this very insanity of war," he said.
