Exuphasis. Upon Home Life |Is Set as P.-T.A. Goal i By National Congress Head
Re-emphasis on training young people for their part in making good homes was called for this morning by Mrs. William A. Hastings, Madison, Wis, in an address before the Indiana Congress of Parents
and Teachers.
Mrs. Hastings, president of the National Congress of Parents and Teachers, spoke on “Homes in Wartime—and After”
session of .the state organization's 33d annual convention in the Claypool hotel, “The cause of this war,” she stated, “is the conflict between the idea of the state and the idea of the home as basic units of life. “It is from the home that other institutions of society have grown. « + « Our way of life, the democratic way, is based on the importance of the individual, and if we do not train our young people for their part in making good homes, we are failing them. We blame them for the broken homes and the undisciplined children that we see as a result of lack of training. “As an organization our first purpose was the improvement of home life with better education for parents regarding child develppment. We heed to stress again this primary purpose,” she added. “We must try to eradicate forces destructive to good home life— parental ignorance, incompatability, ill-health, insufficient income, transient and shifting life, strains between adolescents and adults and lack of spiritual faith.”
President Speaks
Representatives of more than 700 P.-T. A. groups, with membership exceeding 87,000, registered this morning preceding the convention’s formal opening at 10 o'clock in the hotel's assembly room. Sessions will continue until Thursday noon.
Mayor Robert H. Tyndall extended greetings and Mrs. Frederick A. Conkle, Noblesville, state president, presented the convention theme, “Return to the Home." Greetings from the national congress were given by Mrs. L. W. Hughes, Arlington, Tenn, first vice president. In her talk Mrs. Conkle said, “The great need today is that we must be re-educated to the value of the homes and their great importance to our children and youth. “We must revive the lost spirit of the home and bring to life the interest and pride in the home that always has been the cornerstone of American democracy. . . . We must have constructive programs to reduce and prevent juvenile delinquency.
Conferences Held
“We, as parents and teachers, are banded together for better homes, better schools and finer communities. These things are our responsibilities.” Following * Mrs. Hastings’ talk, committee reports were presented by the following chairmen: Mrs. Frank Rieman, rules; Mrs. Donald L. Henry, program; Mrs. O. H. Umbaugh, nominations; Mrs. L. Ohaver, election; Mrs. Irvin Morris, press; Mrs. G. H. Jacobson, pub-
