About June 14 there was delivered at Sheffield, at a meeting of the Church Managers' and Teachers' As seciation, a speech by Lord Haldane indicating the lines on which he re commended dealing with national education. I ask leave to make a few criticisms on the policy which he recommends.

this is not the case in a Council school, where, there are no tests for teachers, where the religious teaching, if any, may fall short of the fullness some parents may desire but is not antagonistic to such fuller teaching, and where experience has shown that the schools give satisfaction to the community as a whole, except to the Roman Catholics, and their opposi tion is mainly kept up by the The two dominant propositions influence, not to say the dictation of which he lays down are, first, that in the priesthood.

I have seen this demand for "atmosphere" in connection with economics on the part of the Socia lists. it broke out at Ruskin Collexe and led to the secession of groups who founded Socialist centres of teaching where economics were to be taught from the Socialist point of view. In South Wales it has opposed the growth of tutorial classes and Uni versity Extension because these pro- blems were approached in an impartial spirit and not as a means of Socialist propaganda, and rival classes have been set up which now inspire many of the younger and active members of the South Wales trade unions.

Fortunately tor our elementary schools, the working men care more for their economic gospel than for the "atmosphere of distinctive teach- ing taught, as Lord Haldane admits imperfectly," through Images leading to abstractions and built infosystems" --a scheme which makes the ultimate result what Plato would call three removes from truth.
