Whitney firsc entered on a criticism of the educational policy of the Government. He said we had in this country a magnificent system of Universities and schools and he denied any beetility to the existence "UUILx --___ v .. ....., of High Schools. He contended,l however, that for a number of years: we needed no further advance as far as Hich Schools were concerned. They were complete and filled all- needs and would not require any more of the people's money. There were the Public Schools, however, and as 95 per cent. of the people at- tended these and began and complet- ed their education in ‘ them, a. systematic eflort should be made from I year to year to raise their standard. He said that the Education Depart- ment was improperly managed. He condemned the Czar-like policy of Mr. Ross. The Minister was abso- lute master of the whole system and} no one shared with him the respons-i ibitity. There was an atxnoSphere of? suSpicion about the department and? every man was afraid of his position! This was not as it should be, it was l wrong. This power which was held‘ by the Minister should be shared by a consultative body representing all; the branches of the system. ML? Whitney then contended that the? University should be separated from all political control. No professor or oficer of the institution could be ap- pointed without the consent of the Minister. If the institution were taken out of the sphere of politics, Mr. Whitney said. it would soon reap the result in bequests from old graduates. who would not now, while it was controlled as it was, give money to it; â€".p A ‘quu‘vw.
