PHONE 9-985 — W E DELIVER "WHERE QUALITY AND ACCURACY PREVAIL"

The men who aie tunning the schools in the Bethlehem Cetitial Dis-tiict subjected themselves to two hows of cioss e\annnation by patents Mondav night at the hifjh school in Delmai and when it was ovei - the id\ocates ot th$ "piogiessive" system of education had won a piomise that die swing baNr to the 'ionnal" system

mild be jetaided, .Right now, the educatois explained,

the schools in the Elsmeie Delmai Slmgeilands distnct aie pnisuing a ' middle of-the-ioad" progiam undei a teaching time table instituted by Ham­ilton H Bookhotit, supeivising pnnci ual So many minutes of the school da^ aie appoitioned foi foimal dull in specified subjects and theie is leeway tor a teachei to use extia. time foi the ictnit> piogiam, taking full advant age, as Bookhout explained, "ot the t)s\chological moment toi teaching the thing the pupils aie most inteiest^ ed im"

The time table is not a ngid s.chod tile, Bookhout said in leply to a ciueiy 'rom a paient Theie is no intention he explained, to have the school prip-2'pal doing a certain thing at a ceitain time

'If the class is singing when the schedule calls E01 leading," said Book hout, "the puftcipal isn't going to stop the singing and tell the teachei to stick to the timetable "

Emphasis of the new piogiam is on the goal to be attained, said Ham­mond Robeitson, president of the Boaid of Education, and to this end the boaid will resmvey the timetable system at the beginning of the new school term

One mother biolte in with the re maik "W*e don't care what system you use, just as long as we have good teachei s "

Another complimented the piesent system and said she Was opposed to too much of the "piogresmve" type of schoolioom tiaining because the pupil is "nevei conscious of having worked foi anything " ."When he gets out into the woild, she said, the pupil wants to do only the things in which he is interested f

Mr. Jiohertson leplied that is why the boaid wanted to leveit to the old, more formal sjstem of education, be heving the tiend to the "progressive" methods had gone far enough m the Bethlehsm district schools.

'"•But we certainly don't want toi go "back to the kind of education we ha,d," intenupted a mothei "I mean the kind that leaves us all aquiyer when w-e speak in public."

A male member of the audience sum med up what he thought was the gioup's reaction to the fortimr That the change back to the formal methods had gone fai enough This won loud applause from many of the 130 persons at the meeting,

Mi Robeitson piomised a thorougn Stud} would be made to appiaise the new system. He had the last word:

"If piogressive education neans that Johnny can knock, his head against—the —teachei *s—desk-justr be cause he wants to expiess himself that way at the moment, then we're not going to have any of that kind of education in our schools That may be self e\pi ession foi Johnnj but it mtei feres with the education of all the othet childien "

'AUBAINiY, May 20—Uaiemplojment msmance benefits of $4,620,019 in the tonm ot 3G9,5fc individual checks weie distributed to unemployed men and women m New Ydilt state dunng April, it was -announced today by In dustnal Commissions! Fneda S. Mill­er This figure lepresents annum ease of 5 6 per c»nt ovei Man oh

The mcieased payments are account­ed tor by amendments to the Unem­ployment Insuiance Law. One ot these amendments' changed the beginning ot the benefit year liom Apnl 1 to June 1 and specked that, toi the benetit year endjfng Mfry i3l ot thus yeai, claimants totally unemployed dunng Apnl and May might lece-iye as much as three -additional weeks ot benetit in these two months

At the eml of Mai oh 2-50,000 claim ants nad diawn the maximum 13 weeks of benefits Moie than 28,000 of these wei-e paid benefits tor ithiee weeks* in April. In addition, neaily 5,000 claimants had diawn. 16 weeks ol beneiiits by Apul 30 These 33,000 claimants, thereto!e, cannot diaw any additional ibenefits until June, when benefits will be based on 1941's earn mgs.

January payments foi the Albany employment office amounted to $35, 492 for the 19411942 benefit yeai, in the form of 2,854 sopaiate checks The aveiage benetit payment foi a single week of unemployment i n the Albany area was $12 12 foi the month

Payments towoikeis outside of New Yoik city weie neaily 15 per cent lowe-i than, in Mai eh This is largely accounted for <by 1 eductions in pay­ments of 50 iper cent to consti uction woikeis and 20 pet cent to w'oikeis engaged m tnade These 1 eductions more than offset the imci eased pay ments to wo*lceisan mantifaotui ing in dustr-ies and iiansportation, com mumeation, and public utilities.

At the end of Apnl, the Unemplo> ment Insurance Fund totaled $317 mil­lion Only a. small portion of emplov eis ' contributions, due on Apnl 30, for the first quaiter ot 1942 weie de posited as the* month ended -^ Buy War Sayings Bonds
