URBACH’S
ARMY TRAINING
HIGH SCHOOLS
IS OPPOSED
MILITARY TRAINING IS NOT CON.
STRUCTIVE CITIZENSHIP TENDS
TO IMPART JINGOISTIC NO
TIONS.
WASHINGTON, D. C., Dec. 14. (/P)
, —The present tendency toward mili
I tary training in educational institu
tions was assailed here tonight in a
joint statement bearng the signa
tures of a distinguished group of
ohurchmen, educators, public officials
and laymen.
"Military training should not be
permitted in any high ' school,” the
statement said, and "it never should
be made compulsory in colleges and
universities.” It was declared "the ■
American people were unaware to (
what extent the War department is :
fostering the military spirit in i
schools, in contravention to Ameni- ;
can ideals.” <
The statement appeared in the :
form of a foreword to a pamphlet on i
Militarism written by Winthrop D. :
Lane of New York. ;
"It would he tragedy,” said the
statement, "if at the very moment ;
when such enemies as Prance and ,
Germany are outlawing war against :
each other, the military spirit should <
assert itself in the United States.
"At the very least military training 1
should be rigidly excluded from the ,
high schools.1 It does not provide :
the best form of physical training, -
it does not teach constructive citi
zenship; if successful it tends to <
impart aggressive, even jingoistic no
tions.
“We are convinced that it is alien ,
to the best interests of our univer- :
sities and to the highest ideals of <
learning that the war department
should be given so much power, and j
military training so much plcae ,
as it now has, in our college (world.” ]
