Speaking "on Some aspects of adolescent education" at a Workers' Educational Association conference at the Stockport Secondary School the
well-known historian and sociologist, Mr. R. H. Tawney, dealt with several fentures of the Hadow report and said the pro- pesals it contained were the climax of a long period of discussion and
represented experiment, and policy in the direction in which enlightened authorities. had been maving for some time.

It would be a misfortune if the interest taken at the present time in the older children caused them to forget the foundation of the whole educational process in con nection with the early stages of Life. They wanted not only more for the adolescent, but more, nur- sery schools, better elementary schools, better buildings, better equipment, and better staffs.
But social causes had combined to turn attention to the adolescent at the moment. Every year brought fresh evidence of the social wastage and individual demoralisation which" was caused by the failure to provide for the needs of these young people at one of the most crucial periods of their lives,

The change could be made it. there was a sufficient volume of public opinion behind it, but there would be very powerful opposition; there was the apprehension on the part of some employers that British INDIAN EDITOR SENTENCED. industry would be ruined if these children of 14 years were not avail- ible for employment, and there, was the financial argument that the cost would be a crushing burden upon the community. Anyone who re membered the situation in 1900 and 1908, or even the agitation of 1915, was familiar with considerations of

was that the bifth-rate in 1021 was abnormally high, which would re- sult in the number of children in the school of the ages of fifteen to sixteen being abnormally inflated from 1934-33, and that after that period the number would fall, and, there would be a large number of school places which could not be used, and, further, that it would create greater unemployment, There Was acute unemployment now among adults, and quite a consider
