A great Scottish church leader once said that the great need of our age is good controversy. Controversy has its place. It is a means of establishing better mutual understandings and larger conceptions of truth where men pursue it in the right spirit; but controversy defeats its purpose where it is blind and bigoted and contentious. The peaceful quest of truth represents far more truly the part of the Christian.

Claims Laws Overrated
“Everywhere the world is turning to government to do its chores,” Mur. | Thorpe told the teachers. “We are | assuming that if the country grew, | developed and became great in 10 decades with few laws, that it can be revolutionized completely in one a decade by many laws.” The editor declared that | dom and in folly, we adults are en- | deavoring to achieve the more abundant life for those who desire it and to confer it upon others whether they like it or not. He declared that criticism has been made of business | nessmen too often on opinion rather “For sake of our charges and for the sake of the American institu | tions which have provided our $40.- { 000,000 teaching plant, we should | teach a few simple fundamentals of | our business life,” he said.

Soil Conservation Praised
He explained that one of these fundamentals is that business is not a personal entity, but the sum total | of the activities of 2,500,000 men | and women engaged in trade. Dr. Durant, in an earlier speech before Indiana University alumni, ranked the Government's soil conservation program as “the finest | statesmanship” of the present Ad- | ministration. He said that the gravest danger to the United States is the declining | birthrate among the more substantial classes of people and the | increasing rate among what he termed inferior classes. | The educators voted against a pro=- | posal to hold next year's convention in five cities, rather than another centralized meeting in Indianapolis. The opposition to the district plan was led by Miss Hilda Maehling, Terre Haute, who the day before re=tired as association president,

The convention deferred action until next year on a proposal to | employ a full-time field representa= | tive at an annual salary of $3000. { In resolutions the teachers afe firmed their stand to preserve gov=- | ernment as established by the Con- | stitution; favored child health pro- ! grams; continuance of NYA and supported proposed Federal aid for education, with administration of | the funds to be vested in local au=thorities. Miss Rose E. Boggs, Richmond, | elected president, is to take office | at the beginning of the 1938 ses=sion, Dr. Wendell W.
