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."

DENVER. Sept. 17 Another
World war will bring "world chaos
and the probable end of our present
civilization." Homer T. 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.
"Back of tho unseen forces of hat
red and despair are the great private
munition rings of the world piling
up vast fortunes out of the muck and
misery of people maddened by un
natural fears, generated In no small
part by these same private munition
racketeers whoso fortunes drip with

He said "freedom of the seas" was
nothing more than the theory that
patriotic youths of the United States
should play with their lives to pro

"The rackets of men like Al Capone
are socially dangerous and should be

The choice of the convention site
next year, apparently lay between
