SCHOOL PLIGHT ROUSES IRE OF U. S, PARENTS Huge Protest Meeting Set for April 5 and 6 at Ohio U. By United Press COLUMBUS. 0., April 3 —School reports that tell stories of distress and decay, of closed schools, of bankrupt school districts, of falling revenues and increasing enrollments, are on the desks of state directors of educations almost from coast to coast in the United States. Concern of professional educators has grown into alarm. Calls for help have been met only in part or have been unheard of in the general economic turmoil. In desperation, an effort will be made to bring the tell-tale facts to wider attention of laymen, of parents and of citizens in a conference at Ohio university April 5 and 6. The citizens' conference on the crisis in education” is a laymen's conference to seek means to ‘‘give at least as effective educatonal advantages as present-day adults have had” to children now deprived of schooling. Figures Tell Sad Story Statistics gathered by educational leaders show— Five thousand or more schools are closed. More than 3,000,000 children of public schools are entirely without educational opportunity or have only limited school terms. Enrollments have increased 960,000 in three years and revenues have dropped more than $100,000,000. New and improved school methods can not be instituted, old and tattered books are used, buildings are falling in disrepair, school debts are mounting. European schools excel those of America, Governor George White will open the conference, sponsors of which have remained virtually anonymous so that the clear-cut issues involved may not be obscured by thoughts of personal credit. Governor Paul V. McNutt of Indiana will discuss the obligation of the state. George F. Zook, federal education commissioner, will present the picture from a national viewpoint. Glenn Frank to Speak Dr. Glenn Frank, president University of Wisconsin, will decry the slogan of “balanced budgets” which threaten this generation's children with “unbalanced lives” through educational starvation. “It is a shameful situation,” said Judge Walter C. Lindley of the federal district court. Danville, who will attend. "Our duty is to the future. The first essential step to any progress is more thorough education. To allow the opportunities for education to become less, rather than more, destructive.” L. J. Taber, master of the National Grange, will picture the ill effect of the closed rural school and United States Senator Royal S Copeland, New York, will discuss education and crime. Mrs. Franklin D. Rooosevelt will speak from the viewpoint of persons of broad social ideals. A paper on the government’s duty by Alfred E. Smith, former New York Governor, who has said that “the one single year that education Is neglected is lost forever,’’ will be read. ‘Dorothy Canfield Fisher of Arlington, Va., will appeal to parents to perform their duties. NEW BOOKS RECEIVED AT BRANCH LIBRARY Biography of Stillmans Among Volumes on Hand. Anew biography, "The First Billion: The Stillmans and the National City Bank,” was received today at the business branch library at Meridian and Ohio streets. One financier says of his former business associate. "Strange, twisted, distorted. James Stillman, in fiction, would be utterly unbelievable.” In his latest book. “The Future: A Study of the New Deal,” Charles A. Beard terms the Roosevelt administration “a phase of a movement which will occupy the coming years and centuries.” It was received at the library today. Other new books received are “Popular Financial Delusions," by Smithley: “Handbook of Applied Mathematics." by Jansson; “Business Letters," by Smart and MeKelvey. and 'Outline of the New Deal Legislation." by Piquet.

Governor’s State Police Policy Hit by Beveridge

Indiana Has Been Disgraced by Dillinger Episode, Says Candidate. ‘•lndiana has been disgraced by the Dillinger episode and Governor Paul V. McNutt is to blame because he refused to back A1 Feeney in building an adequate state police force," j Albert J. Beveridge Jr. told members of the Irvington Republican ‘ Club last night. Asa member of a group of eleven | Republican seeking nomination to: the legislature from Marion county, j Mr. Beveridge outlined a plan for a nonpolitical state police as one of the platform planks which they are J pledged to support. ••Through his beer setup and added tax powers. Governor McNutt has been able to find money to expend by numerous queer and mys- f terious channels. Yet he couldn’t j find money to build a decent police | force equipped with state-wide ra-1 dio and other things needed to cope , with modern crime,” Mr. Beveridge j said. Attorney Laurens L. Henderson, j one of the leaders in formation of j the legislative group, gave a gen- 1 eral outline of the platform upon which they are to stand. "We are not coming out with the' mere slogan of ‘lower taxes.' ” Mr. Henderson declared. "We are offering a program which will bring about lower taxes.” Other candidates who addressed! the meeting included Ralph Spaan, i who is seeking nomination for iudge j of the Marion county criminal 1
