Society Lacking in Duties Toward

Youth, P.-T. A. Congress Hears

By United Press

RICHMOND, Va., May 5 Society's program for inducting its youth into citizenship, employment and marriage is inadequate and has failed,

Dr. Homer P. Rainey,

director of the American Youth Commission, told

the National Congress of Parents and Teachers today. Dr. Rainey delivered the principal agoress at the third day's session,

which also included discussions of influence of movies on children, P.-T. A. health work, and parental | education. “A large percentage of some 2,000,000 youths reaching the age of em-

| ployment each year cannot find em-

ployment,” Dr. Rainey said. “Seventy-five per cent get no guidance worthy of the name. There is a steadily widening [gap between the completion of the [school experience and the Re of employment. “They are facing a werld of more leisure, without adequate preparation for an effective use of their leisure time. They live in communities almost wholly: unequipped to provide adequate recreational facilities ‘and leadership. Parents are confused and in most -instances are helpless to deal with the problems confronting their own youth.” : Dr. Lillian R. Smith, Lansing, Mich., reported that.P. T. A's summer roundup program last year resulted in examination of 98,610 children entering school. discovery of a total of 128,854 defects and correction of 44,113 of them. Dr. Edgar Dale, of University, led the conference on Ada Hart Arlitt, child psychology professor at the University _ of Cincinnati, led the adult ‘education discussion.

Playing with her will be Mr. Weer, Charles Rockwood, Clarence Efroymson, Mrs. Herbert Foltz and Hiram Wasson McKee. The set will be a simple country kitchen, Mrs. Cox said.
