BOOKS AND JOBS
A problem that crie for settling cornea to attention
in a report of a recent talk on education and industry
made by Homer P. Ramsey, staff director of the American
Youth Commission.
The problem is simply the determination of where
the occupational training of young men and women prop-
erly belongs. Is it the responsibility of industry, or of the
public school system?
The American Youth Commission, sponsored by the
American Council on Education, has been studying the
youth problem on a national scale for the last three years.
Director Ramsey reported in his recent talk that at
the present time the country's high schools are rapidly
being relieved of the necessity of vocational training by
new training programs of industry itself. Such training
activities are already an integral part of 50 per cent of
America's large industries, Ramsey reported.
It seems as if the echoes of loud demands fT increased
vocational training in the schools have hardly died down
yet. Those demands were a depression product. Schools
have responded to them and curricula have been changed.
If the intentions of public education are not to be revised
with every change in the economic barometer, the respon-
sibilities for vocational training must be definitely placed.
IT WON'T DO HERE, MR. HITLER
Mr. Hitler's puff-mouthed oratory, exemplified by the
recent Sports Palace orgy, and his last lunge at Mr.
Churchill of England transforms his listeners into fanatics.
The former Austrian paper-hanger and house paint-
er is no master of diction—not by a long ways. His Ger-
man is gramatically unpolished. Nor does he burden his
speeches with logic. But his rank as a mob psychologist
is established by performance. No circus ringmaster ever
cracked a whip more sharply ^t toothless tigers than does
Der Fuehi-er snap his words over a cowering audience.
An unequalléd propagandist? In his own country,
among his own people, peril a ps so. But the wdrk of his
representatives in the United States blotches the record.
The German "goodwill" emissaries—call them agents,
spies, propagandists, or what have you—must have for-
gotten their training, if any. Or perhaps Mr. Hitler un-
derstand* only German mob psychology.
At any rate, his disciples in this country have fared
badly. They are a little too obvious; they forget
the tule of subtle suggestion that underlies all successful
propaganda. This may be due in part to their unfamiliar-
ity with the right of free speech. They overdo the job, by
leaving little doubt as to their purpose. The bold, direct
approach may succeed with a people already won by force
of steel bayonets, but we like our minds to be made up
for us a little more discreetly.
If Mr. Hitler would read his history, an unbiased his-
tory, he might see that this same sort of blundering was
a force in searing American public opinion away from the
side of his country during the World War. The English
camouflaged their propaganda; the Germans dressed
theirs iu bright red, blazoned by the amazingly stupid
sinking of the Lusitania and it fell into disrepute.
Thus does hiptory whisper its lesson-—if only Mr. Hit-
ler would close his mouth long enough to hear.
