New School Law Sponsored By Harris Explained By Superintendent.

ITIMES BUREAU AT STATE CAPITAL) INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., March 1 1 The impression has gone out over the state that, the Harris lull provium for compulsory education was parsed! by tlie assembly in its original form. This is m't the case. A number "t j educators from various parts of Inii ana called at tivj office of the state j 1 superintendent of public instruction! i today to learn the exact provisions of j j the measui e. ' I lfde velnpes that an amendment was j made to the bill whereby children who have completed the eighth grade ant are fourteen years of age may disc uitinue their schoo'-ing and se k employment. In fact, so far as compusory education is concerned the Harris law does not change the present statute except tiiat it compels chtldrtn to complete the elen entary course. The attendance law now requires children to remain in school until they have reached the age .-f 14 and have completed the fifth .tad". As most children complete the. eighth grade ttulies by the time they are fourteen years old the change- i:i the law will not materially change the standing of compulsory education. The "teeth" of the new' law are not contained in this provision. It is the new system of attenddi ce officers provided tor in the law tn.xt the "'teeth'' app?or. It is a notorious fact that the at endance laws of Indiana arc shamefully disregarded. This is more or lesj true over the entiie. state according to the state educational department. This department has been cornpeiled to wink, at the violations of the law- because it has had no authority to enforce it. In the larger cities, of course, the compulsory attendance law has been fairly well observed because employers are loath t. Incur the penalties that attach for h'l ing children that d j not have a certificate to leave school before they attain the age of lfl years. In the rural di.vricts and the smaller towns. It is said, the. children are in many instances taken out of school (before, they Si eve, coniplf ted tin. ir gruJo work. The attendance officers on the other hand have not ft!r as if they should be called upon to work very hard at their jobs because their salary was lim.ted to $2 a day. And then they he'd their jobs largely because of the suffer.iccc of the moro or less prominent person-) of the community. This condition made them loath to initiate prosecutions for violations of the attendance laws, What the Harris bill does do it doe? in an indirect way. It provides for a sta'e attendance officer who may hsrdeputies. This dtpariment has th? power to go intj any part of the stat and bring prosecutions for the violation of the attendance law. It will also have power to ej"ct any local tendance officer who fails in his duty. In other words the enforcing of the attendance laws is indirectly lodged n th to :i state body which is not Po likely be influence 1 by local conditions. l'he original Harris bill pro v i Te 1 I une original Harris coil pre that all child .-en must complete the j eighth grade and that after 10 23 a" children must remain in school (evfnj if they have completed the eighth grade) until they are 13 ytars .d.l.l and after ,S;iO'i-',hor, 1025, the ucej limit would oe raised to 16 years eld GARY POLITICS ' IS PICKIfIG UP I'olit Ic.-il -ampaien hea-irpiarters are springing up iu Mary today like mushrooms in damp weather.
