He referred a number of times to
school 52 In Indianapolis, wbefre he said
the problem of giving Industrial train
ing along with the three R's and the
culture studies was being solved bet
ter than anywhere in Indiana. This school he said is located in factory
neighborhood, and while not a . single
pupil in thirty years had gone to col
lege. Mill the boys and girls there
leave school have more than the aver
age boy or girl. They have learned the
fundamentals of some trade which makes tlyem valuable as soon as they leave schiool. As a matter of fact Hammond already has a very good beginning along these lines. Manual training is taught in the grades as far as it Is permissible under the law, and In the Wallace school, especially, where many of the children of the foreigners attend, the Idea is put Into practice. Elastic Tax Law Needed. The needs of the children are anticipated In giving them cooking and sewing lessons. There are two girls in the Wallace school in the second
grade, who have to do the cooking at home, and the Instructions they receive atschool are a material help to them. Hammond also has two. Industrial centers, one In Central school and the other in the Franklin school, where the boys are taught the use of carpenter and other.ioolsV The greatest difficulty, as it was pointed out to the commission yesterday, lies in the lnelastically of the law with reference to a city's bonded Indebtedness. Fnder the present law a city cannot go into debt for more than 2 per cent of its assessed valuation. It was pointed out that the cities up here grow so fast that It Is all that they can-do to provide schools sufficient for the teaching of the ordinary branches. Were a greater latitude allowed a city to Increase Its bonded In
debtedness, Industrial education could
be added, It was urged- The re-valua
tion of property in Indiana every four
years was also said to be out of keep-wf

that if property were re-valued every
two years Instead of every four years that The growing communities would be
benefited while the others would not suffer. j

Fitr.gibbons, superintendent of schools at Columbus, spoke of the advantages of Industrial training. Short talks were also made by Judge Becker, Carl Bauer and Barney Carter. Judge Becker said that in his estimation the results attained from the high schools as they are now conducted, did not warrant the great expense with which they are kept up, and that Introducing industrial training In the schools would result in a benefit to a greater number of people. Mr. Bauer Indorsed industrial education, saying that he had had the advantage of it In Germany. Mr. Carter expressed himself very strongly in favor of industrial training. Speaking as the president of the ake County Trades and abor Council, he said the union men indorsed It, Personally he advocated that the girls be given the same advantages that the
