MORALE DAVE]

Wells One of 21 National Educators Developing + School Co-operation. Times Special - WASHINGTON, Nov. .~ Presl-

dent Herman B Wells of Indiana University is one of 21 national

educational leaders aiding the Office

of Education in developing school and college co-operation in civilian morale for defense. Federal Security Administrator Paul V. McNutt, whose agency includes the Office of Education, explained that the plan will enlist hundreds of thousands of teachers, educational leaders and citizens volunteers.

McNutt Stresses Morale

Copies of a manual on “How to Participate” are being mailed to intendents of ‘schools, 26,000 high 1700 college presidents, 18,000 superschool principals, 9000 librarians and numerous civic groups he said. “Good morale,” Mr. McNutt writes in the manual,” defense as guns and planes. Morale in a democracy is unity of purpose based on common: understanding. That kind of morale thrives on free and full discussion.. The respon=sibility of promoting discussion falls on our traditional institutions which we have set up for enlightment— our schools and colleges.” More Forums Advocated

John ‘W. Studebaker, U. S. Commissioner of Education, expects to extend his open forums to all communities as part of the morale building program “Let’s call these meetings ‘Freedom’s Forums,’ ” he suggested. “Let them be assemblies where . free Americans get to the roots of their problems with respect for facts and without hysteria. “Freedom’s Forums will be conducted: in schools, colleges, ‘union halls, churches, women's and service clubs, libraries and at farm organization meetings.” ‘

Dr. Carroll D. W. Hildebrand, Greencastle, in an address before the America First Committee here. last night, declared that America’s entry into the war would “end de-| 7

security in this counfry at this time and with the staggering debt which war would bring, our democracy would not survive,” he said.

“The true issues of the European |/

conflict have never heen placed before. the: American people. . the issue today is mo |more ‘that of democracy than it was in 1917.”
