The tax would yield about $300 per unit and would support normal administration expenses of the larger districts, according to the survey staff. The value of the local contribution, says the report, "lies mainly in arousing a healthy local interest in the schools." 4. Local taxes in excess of the one mill rate would be retained by the district, as is currently the practice in the large districts of the state, to supplement the foundation program. The commission says the plan would not freeze the state's contribution, but that expansion would follow demand.

On the building of new schools, the commission advises that buildings should not be erected, except in case of emergency, until the matter of creating a few adequate districts as suggested in the report, is thoroughly explored.

Dutton of Newark spoke on collection of information BOTH PARTIES IN SENATE BACK AID TO EDUCATION WASHINGTON, Jan. 6 publican and Democratic senators joined today in reoffering a federal aid to education bill which was passed by the Senate in the last Congress but was pigeonholed in the House.

The bill, which would provide $300,000,000 a year to "equalize educational opportunities" in the states, was presented by Senator Elbert D. Thomas D-UtahK, chair man of the Senate Labor and Edu cation Committee. Senator Taft of Ohio, the Re publican policy leader, also was among the sponsors. He said he the Senate will pass it without "prolonged discussion." And that it will receive "a more favorable reaction in the House than it did last time." President Truman renewed his request for federal aid to education in his message yesterday. GEORGIAN OFFERS BILL TO HALT IMMIGRATION WASHINGTON, Jan.

6 (). Representative Pace (D-Ga) today introduced a bill to halt immigration "while the number of unemployed persons in the United States is 100 or more."

The temporary salary increase item is left blank and will be an added expense during the biennium if the legislature agrees to continue the boost which the last General Assembly granted. In his message to the joint ses sion Governor Bacon pointed out that the increase of $200 to all employes receiving between $500 and $5,000 a year will lapse unless it is renewed and recommended that it be continued. Discussing finances he said "that "judicious administration of the state's fiscal affairs is one of the most important matters for consideration by the chief executive.

He pointed out that during his two terms "financial conditions have changed rapidly." Expenditures compared with those eight years ago "have Increased by alarming proportions." Decreased Purchasing Power Governor Bacon attributed a "large percentage of this increase" to the "decreased purchasing power of currency The Governor also emphasized that the total budget for the biennium might well reach $40,000,000. This would Include, in addition to the items listed above, the usual supplemental appropriations for county highway bond interest and redemptions, grants to hospitals, fire companies, Woods Haven School, the state's continuing appropriations and allotments from the emergency fund. But, added the Governor, "It appears now that there should be sufficient funds to adequately meet the above recommendations for the biennium." Members of the House of Representatives spent little time in their seats yesterday. After the session opened at 12:31 Speaker Harvey H. Lawson, noting that former Rep.

Wilfreda J. Lytle, of Carrcroft, was in the audience, called her to his side and invited her to address the representatives. Mrs. Lytle congratulated the House for its swift and so far smooth organization, saying that "this had been watched with pleasure by all of the people of the state." Messages Received After the joint session the representatives received several messages from Governor Bacon and one from Secretary of State William J. Storey who made his first official appearance of the session in the House.

The messages included a copy of the School Survey Commission report which was turned over to Rep. Ernest Cool (R-Camden), chairman of the Education Committee. Mr. Lawson said that copies of the report will be available later to all of the members. Colonel Storey reported on the advertising of amendments, passed by the last session, which will be presented for final action during this session.

They include salary increases for members" of both houses, lengthening of the terms of the state treasurer and state auditor from the present two to four years, and creating the constitutional office of vice-chancellor. One of Governor Bacon's messages contained a report on commutations and pardons issued to prisoners since the last General Assembly adjourned on April 2, 1947. Another contained a preliminary report of the Personnel Classification Commission, headed by former State Treasurer Jesse S. Cooper who disclosed later that the full report will be presented about Feb. 1.

Adjourn Until Monday Before adjourning until Monday, on the motion of the floor leader. Rep. Noble S. Warren, of Dover, the House adopted a Senate concurrent resolution providing for the appointment- of a joint committee to make suitable arrangements for the inauguration of El bert N. Carvel and for attendance at the Inauguration of Presidentelect Harry S.

Truman. The resolution called for the appointment of the speaker as a member of the committee from the House and empowered him to appoint four more members. Mr. Lawson then announced the selection of Rep. John P.

Sinclair (R-Newark), Rep. Henry W. Bryan fR-Wilmingt on), Rep. Martin J. Walsh (D-Wilmington), and Rep.

Nutter D. Marvel (D-Georgetown). 'MARSHALLIZATION' AIM OF TRUMAN, REDS BARK LONDON. Jan. 6 (INS) fosrnw Radio tonight attacked President: Truman's State of the Union message as one "promising to continue the policy of Marshallizatlon and imposing the United States will on other nations." The broadcast recorded in Ten don, summarized the message tn Congress! It said while the Presi dent praised the capitalist system he was "compelled to admit that tt.

S. production, wages, and health and educational services are poor." It added the President proclaimed "an allegedly peaceful policy" but the President actually is "concerned with armaments and military training." basis should provide a high platform under the entire educational system of the state, the districts should raise local funds of a more than nominal amount for additional education in those districts over and above the general state supported level. The exact sum to be raised locally should be left to local determination, and might vary widely from one district to another, since the educational needs and desires vary considerably from one part of the state to another. "Since the power to tax, therefore. becomes involved, the members of district boards should be elected at large from the residents of the dis trict, and the 'laws governing the election should be such as to dis courage partisan politics in the elections.

"Unless these basic suggestions are adopted," the commission warned. the cost of Delaware schools will be relatively high for the education provided, and additional funds expended to obtain steadily better education will not achieve results commensurate with increased costs." Adequate Financial Resources In a first chapter comment on the financial resources of the state, the commission said: "Considering its small area and the comparatively small number of children to be educated, Delaware has adequate resources to finance a better program of public education than is at present maintained. In the personal income of its inhabitants the state stands in the class of the richer states. The very high federal income tax, however, materially lessens Delaware's ability to meet its local governmental obligations. The report reveals that a public opinion poll was conducted by the survey staff to determine what the people of Delaware want from their educational system.

The poll showed that the people consulted want Kindergartens, physical examina tions and health services, guidance programs in high school, special op portunities for handicapped chu dren. junior college offerings for youth, more scholarships for col lege for economically handicapped youth, and classes and activities for adults. The poll showed 72 per cent of those questioned favoring consolidation of one and two-room schools with larger schools. Only 40 per cent of those interviewed knew about what it costs to educate a child, said the report and "people generally desire to know more of what the schools are doing." Willingness to Pay Cited "The returns of the poll show that those who pay the most taxes are more willing to pay more taxes for better schools than those who pay the least taxes, and that the higher education of the individual the more willing he is to pay more taxes for better schools. "The general conclusions of the poll indicate a general desire for better schools, and a willingness to pay more taxes to make better schools The report contains a discussion of the basic aims of education in a democracy are to teach the child: "1.

To grow into a well-balanced human being; "2. To live in a community; "3. To prepare for and earn a living "4. To get along with people. "It is certain that these aims have not been completely accomplished by Delaware schools," says the commission.

Needed Improvement The commission lists 15 points on which the Delaware schools system "could be improved." First, "pre-school and kindergarten education is not generally provided, except In Wilmington. There is need throughout the. state for education for children below the age of six." Second, the commission 4ndicated that in some special districts the program of elementary education does not approach the "well-planned" program of the Wilmington and state board units. Third, "improvements in instruction in the elementary schools can be achieved best through the helpful guidance to teachers provided by local and state supervisory and advisory agencies whose function should be professional assistance and leadership rather than inspection." Fourth, "local administrators and teachers should plan an appropriate evaluation program as an aid in classification, instruction and guidance Fifth, "Elementary teachers should be aided in utilizing community resources, audio-visual materials, and pupil activities, rather than be made to depend almost exclusively upon textbooks." Junior Highs Lack Unity Sixth, "the Junior high school program lacks unity, in that too frequently grades 7 and 8 are treated as a unit (often an extension of the elementary school) and grade 9 is an introduction to the senior high school. "A sound solution to this program would be the six-year school unit, except perhaps In Wilmington where the three-year junior high school and three-year high school might be more desirable." Seventh, "Differentiated curricu-lums as now provided in Delaware high schools might well be reduced to three types: (1) college preparatory; (2) specialized (vocational) and f3) general.

Effective guidance service should be provided to assist the pupil in planning his curriculum in terras of his life career needs. Eighth, "Public high schools should study the needs and abilities of their pupils in order to assist them and their parents in mak ing wise choices of their educational opportunities Ninth, "Since most high schools are too small to afford a satisfactory program 'of secondary education for all of the youth of the community, it would be desirable to increase the size of the local districts, outside of Wilmington, in order that a larger high school unit might be secured. In the case of high schools for Negroes, it would be educationally desirable and economical to provide regional high schools of a comprehensive type to take care of Negro youth in Kent and Sussex counties." Ten th, "Special consideration should be given to the development; of better provisions for vocational education for both white and Negro youth throughout the state where! suitable provisions are lacking. Eleventh, In order that all WASHINGTON, Jan. 6 (IP).

The Agriculture Department wants to experiment on a food stamp program for (1) improving diets of low income groups and (2) using food surpluses. Officials disclosed today the department has asked the Budget Bureau to approve a request for congressional authority to experiment. They expected bureau approval, because the stamp program is in line with White House recommendations. In his message to Congress yesterday, President Truman said measures were needed for increasing food consumption by low income persons as one way of providing farmers with bigger markets. Officials said the department has not worked out details of an experimental program.

But they said it would be patterned after the stamp plan in effect before the war. Under that plan, low income families were issued government stamps which could be used at grocery stores for purchase of surplus foods. The government redeemed the tarn pes from grocers. day. are Taft: Millikin: Young lea(Jer and galtonstall wmp.

Congress can get down to business only after these organizational problems are ironed out. Congress Continued From First Pago proposals and other southerners were prepared to back them to the hilt. Hill said he could go along on most of Mr.

Truman's proposals "but I can't go along with him on the civil rights issue." Senator Elbert Thomas (D-Utah), chairman of the Senate Labor Committee, led off the Senate attack on the Taft-Hartley labor law. introducing a repealer bill and proposing restoration of the old Wagner Labor Relations Act. Would Keep One Feature Thomas told the Senate his meas ure would retain only one ieaiure of the Taft-Hartley law the section increasing the National Labor Relations Board from three members to five. But he said other new labor legislation will be and noted that Mr. Truman yesterday suggested that certain strike-curbing measures are required to safeguard the nation's economy.

In this connection. Mr. Truman urged a ban on jurisdictional strikes and "unjustifiable" secondary boycotts, along with methods to settle or prevent strikes in vital industries. A sequel to the bitter 1948' battle over housing was also in the offing, with Senator Taft (R-O) and Senator Flanders 'R-Vt) declaring that Mr. Truman's program for 1,000,000 government financed 1 dwellings in feven years is "too big." However, seven Democratic senators put their names on a bill designed to give Mr.

Truman just what he wants. Deaths Elsewhere COTTONWOOD. Jan. (IP). Movie Director Victor Fleming.

6 (JF). President Truman asked Congress today for speedy increases in the salaries of Cabinet members and other top flight government officials. He didn't say anything about a raise for himself, although a drive is on to award him one. In identical letters to Senator McKellar (D-Tenn), President pro tempore of the Senate, and to House Speaker Rayburn, the President said: "Inadequate salaries have long made it difficult to obtain and hold able men for positions of greatest responsibility in the government service. For most of these positions.

there have been no pay increases in many years. "In the meantime, other salaries, both in government and industry, have risen sharply, and opportunities for larger compensation in private industry have been greatly expanded. He asked a salary scale of from $17,500 to $25,000 for heads and assistant heads of government de partments, and other government officials of comparable rank. Cabi net omcers now get a year, and the heads of most independent agencies from $10,000 to $12,000. Some Republican support was evident in the Senate for a bill intro duced yesterday which would raise the President's pay from $75,000 a year to $100,000, and give him a tax-free $50,000 expense allowance.

To be of any help to Mr. Truman in the next four years, the raise would have to be legalized before Jan. 20, date of his inauguration. The Constitution forbids raising a President's salary during his term of office. OBITUARIES Mr.

Phone 4-5351. consideration be given to an expanded" program of education at and beyond the level of secondary edu cation as now provided.

Where needed, junior colleges might be established and financed by local funds." A short cnapter outlines the need for a program of guidance. "Guid ance encourages the development of the individual as well as group capacities. The elementary school must be the first center where teachers become aware of the student's individual problems and where various steps must be taken to make proper adjustments." Continuous Guidance Service A comprehensive and continuous general guidance service, the report declares is "one of the imperative needs of public education in Delaware," and that service, it says, should be available to all pupils, "of every social and racial background and students with low as well as high abilities." The guidance plans should be "sold" to school officials, the commissions recommends. The chapter on "Offerings in Secondary Schools" declared that "the basic justification for the existence of the public school is the development of good citizenship. The prime purpose is not, as so many people think, instruction in such funda mental tools of learning as the three R's and their derivatives, although these attainments are beyond question of paramount importance in modern society.

They are not an end, but a means to an end, namely, the development of such habits, abilities and attitudes as will enable a person to live a 'good life' in a complex society. Proficiency in mathematics, the languages, sciences, and the like without a sense of civic responsibility is no guaranty of a peaceful world in which children may grow into men and women free from the holocaust of war." Only 62 Pet. Graduate While the state provides means for teaching the essentials of citizenship, "how can that opportunity be fully realized" when only 62 per cent of the pupils who enter high school remain to graduate," the report asks. "This means," says the commission, "that the present program of the secondary schools is not meeting the needs and desires of many of our young people. "It is manifestly impossible to do all that needs to be done without radically changing the present curriculum, particularly in English and social studies." Commenting on instruction in science in Delaware schools, the report states: "One half of the general science classes axe held in rooms not equipped with water, gas, electrical outlets or proper tables." It adds that the use of visual aids is being neglected except in Wilmington.

Smaller Classes Urred Smaller classes and additional teachers are recommended. The report suggested that one year of required science is inadequate. On athletics, the commission said that emphasis upon "varsity" sports limits the recreational program of the majority of pupils who do not take part. "In some schools, com-j bined washroom, shower room, and: locker room facilities are a threat to health and sanitation." The section on vocational educa-J tion says the vocational trade and; industrial program in Wilmington should be commended, but that more opportunities for the slow learner should be provided. In the chapter on Negro education, the commission states that "educational procedures should be designed to preparing the Negro child, not for a subordinate role in society, but for a status limited only by his individual talents.

The basic needs of all children are the same." The report says that while a 12-year program of education theoretically is provided for all Delaware children, actually that is only true in Wilmington for Negro children. Negro Education Kent County schools go only to the tenth grade and Sussex to the eleventh for Negroes, the report states. Eleven specific recommendations are made for improving Negro education. Succeeding chapters contain -recommendations on special education, adult education, testing, and the school plant. The commission points out in its chapter on financing the program! that the "foundation program" of education which it holds should be! supported by the state "is not a wide departure in organization, methods or subject-matter from present state educational standards." The report says: In view of rising school costs and some disparity among districts in ability to pay for education, the state should continue to bear the same large proportion oi costs wnich it has borne for the past 25 years.

This commission cannot recommeni any reduction In the fund3 furnished from state revenues. The people of the state have accepted this responsibility and should not depart from it." 4-Point Fund Program The commission suggests that funds for current operations, as dis tinguished from funds for capital! improvements, be obtained and distributed in accordance with a four point program: 1. State funds should be allotted the consolidated districts on. the basis of units of 25 pupils in average daily attendance. The Legislature would set the rate per unit.

2. The State Board of Education should be allotted funds for specific' auxiliary services to be furnished the districts for vocational education for adults and the handicapped, libraries, transportation, and for its own expenses. 3. Local taxation should be used, and the district should be required to send the state an amount equal to one mill on the assessed value Ioxa.
