"The Parent Teachers associations conduct the lunch room service in the elementary schools and periorm a number of other IndnpenssDle services. "It is not too much to say Mat very child In the city la either di rectly or Indirectly helped by tne work these associations do, and for that reason I believe that every parent of a school child In this city should b a supporter of these asso ciations." O. B. Bowman, county superlntena of Jackson county, says: , "I believe In parent-teacher cir cles because when the love ana natural concorn of a parent lor nia child can be combined with tne sincere eltorts of the trained teacher In the service rendered by out schooli, we have a partnership com bination that can accomplish wnat neither partner could alone." . According to H. W. Guetln, prin cipal of Jackson school, "The most potent factor in American education Is the homo. When this lector is geared with teacher power we move a greater education load." A few of t. jjoutstandlng activities of the local parent-teacher organi zations have been tabulated as fol lows: ' Jackson and Washington P.-T. A sponsor the lunch room In their schools; cub pscks for boys, from to 12 years of age; furnish equip- 'ment for basketball; contribute books to the library; have' an active com mittee working with the weliare ana health organizations of the city.

"My work with the Boy Bcouts ' haa convlnoed me of the benellts our children derive from organlaa- . tions of this type. The P.-T. A. de rotes Itself not only to Improving ducatonal methods In the schools, but to raising the training standards ' In the home. "It provides an open forum where ' parents and teachers may discuss their mutual problema and work out new and better educational methods In keeping with twentieth century conditions. "1 am whole-heartedly In acoora with the P.-T. A. objectives. During ' tt 40 years of existence, It hse grown to be one of the really fine educational organizations which, ope rating In harmony with our school systems, has Improved the chances for boys and girla to grow up Into useful and intelligent citizens."

Chairman O'Connor (D.-N.Y.) of the house rules committee, which blocked the wage-hour bill In the last session, forecast It would be brought to the house floor awlitly. The crop control bill, however, will have the right-of-way under a reso lution adopted In August. There were Indications that two other Issues might create time-consuming debate during the session the former Ku Klux Klan connections of Supreme Court Justice Hugo L. Black and the president's foreign policy. Peace Alms Defined. Mr. Roosevelt apparently aougnt In his speech to allay criticism of his newly aggressive policy toward Jap anese Invasion of China. He empha sized that American participation In the nine-power treaty conference would be to seek by agreement a solution of the conflict. "And the kind of peace we want," he said, "is the sound and perma nent kind, which Is built on the co operative search for peace by all the nations which want peace." Discussing his call for the special session, the president said It would enable congress to avoid a lengthy session next year during the pre election campaign. Ordinarily con gress would not meet until January 3. 'I know," he added, "that many enemies of democracy will say that It Is bad for business, bad for the tranquility of the country, to have a special session even one beginning only six weeks before the regular session. ' "But I have ' never had sympathy with the point of view that a session of the congress Is an unfortunate intrusion. Those who do not like democracy want to keep legislators at home." The president sat at a desk In an oval-shaped room In the White House. After the 80-mlnute speech, In which he spoke much more rapidly than usual, ha received congratula tions from two or three dozen guests.

In his White House speech, which reviewed his trip to the west coast, the president said that "for most of the country this has been a good year," but that "we have not yet done all that must be done to make this prosperity stable." The people "out through the coun try," he said, "want the financial budgot balanced, but they want the, human budget balanced as well." APPEAR AT W.H.M.S. Rev.

Foley quoted Dal hover as explaining the gang thought It could obtain am? munition easier In Maine than In nearby states, When the Brady gangsters fled from an Indiana jail one year ago, they had but $12 among them, Foley said Oal hover told the federal agents.
