JOSEPHUS DANIELS SAYS USE
HICKORY AND TRAIN YOUTHS
Former Secretary of Navy Tell Ken
tucky Teachers World Has De
parted Too Far From Solomon’s
Advice of “Spare the Rod and
Spoil the Child ”
Louisville, Ky-. April 23.—A plea
for the inculcation of respect lor
authority aud for discipline in the
school child of today was voiced
here tonight by Josephus Daniels,
secretary of the navy under Wilson,
in address before the Kentucky
Teachers' association
Just as the military service in
-America needs the ‘'broadening
spirit, pf, the schools, so -there is a
crying need at this hour for the
spirit of discipline in the schools and
colleges,’’ declared Mr. Daniels, who
believes that the pendulum Has
swung too for from the practice of
the “Solomonic precept, 'spare the
rod and spoil the child.’ ”
"The breaking down of discipline
and the lowering of standards is not
debatable. The only debatable ques
tion is how to secure adherence to
high standards and respect tor au
thority. I submit that, as the mili
tary service needs-the ameliorating
influence of the school rooih, so the
school room stands in need of the
principles inculcated iu military
men. They are:
"1. Respect for authority.
"2- Acceptance of discipline.
“3 Love of the flag.”
"The goal,” the speaker asserted,
“is self discipline, but youth must be
taught the everlasting truth that
obedience to constituted authority is
the first lesson of life, and that
without such respect there cannot
be developed the sturdy qualities es
sential to noble character.” -
The speaker told of his experi
ences. while secretary of the navy
in putting into effect in. the navy a
syfltera of compulsory education. He
predicted that “the day is not far
distant when compulsory education
wijl be as fixed in the military ser-)
vice as in the public schools.” Broad
eduction of military sbrviCO as in the
public to “outlaw” war, the speaker
declared.
In concluding his address, Mr.
Daniels paid tribute to Woodrow
Wilson, and predicted that the day
will come when this country will ac
cept the “essential peace making
provisions of Wilson’s league.”
Approves McLean’s plan I’or Sur
vey.
Charlotte, April 23.—“ The opin
ion of the executive committee of
the North- Carolina Cotton Manu
facturers' Association is that any
survey conducted by a properly con
stituted agency of the State is pro
per,” was the statement ot Hunter
Marshall, Jr., of Charlotte, secretary
of the association, when interviewed
Wednesday regarding the action of
Governor McLean in ordering a sur
vey by the Child Welfare Bureau of
working conditions of women in in
dustry within the State. Mr. Mar
shall declined to comment further
on the matter, declaring that the
Governor’s action was open to no
criticism, so far as be tvas con
cerned.
Winston D. Adams, of Charlotte,
secretary of the American Cotton
Manufacturers’ Association, declined
to make any .statement regarding
tnc matter.
Continued Activity in Southern Tex
tile Stocks But Friers Decline.
Gastonia, N. C., April 24. —Ac-
cording to R- 9. Dickson & Company,
Gastinia. N. C., the average of
twenty five Southern Mill Stocks de
clined $1.56 per share last week,

for certain stocks Which sold off im
