TO STUDY HISTORY BOOKS
FOR BRITISH PROPAGANDA
Dr. Conwell Declares Many Present
Writers Are Prejudiced
History textbooks should be carefully
gene ever by experts before presented
te school students te guard against these
that are pre-Hritish or prejudiced in
ether directions. ,
That Is the belief of Dr. RuBsell II.
Conwell, president of Temple Univer
sity nud pastor of the Baptist Temple.
He is preparing te make a study of
recent history books, e he can select
ones he thinks leHst prejudiced for use
in the university.
"I believe at this time there Is a
tendency te be pre-British among his
torians. It is net a premeditated
scheme. It is simply that historians
try truthfully te btnte their own con
victions nnd many of them today are
exceedingly prejudiced. It Is net well
te present such books for study In pub
lic schools or colleges. That 's why I
intend te make a study of history text
books. I believe sucn a study or Inves
tigatien will be inude by faculties or
hidteiy specialists ull ever the 'ceuu-
IFV ."
Educators, as well as the Friends of
Irish Freedom, claim there have been
two distinct nttemptu te Inject British
propaganda Inte American history text
books within the last twenty yeais. The
first was in 1000, but the move was
nrmnntlv nut down. The second was
in 1017. as a result of the popular ap-J
preval of the association of the United 1
States and England In the world war.

P. Oarber At IU annual meeting today.
Although the Committee en superin
tendence appointed te find the best edu
cator in the country available for th,i
pest has found the man whom it will
recommend, it Is sold that Simen Grets
and a number of ether members of the
beard will vote against him, unless the
committee names Dr. Chcesmen A. Her-
rick, president of Ulrard College.
'Alie decision et tne committee ha
been made, but will net be known until
the beard meets. While the choice le
sold te lie between Dr. Derrick. Dr.
Payson Smith, commissiener1 of educa
tion In Massachusetts, and Dr. narry
Hruce Wilsen, superintendent of schools
in Berkeley. Calif., it is believed thnt
the latter will be the man named by the

meeting, some members of the beard
taking the ground that as a matter of
civic pride e Phlladelphlan should hevs
the pest. The scorch of the commit
tee for the best man in the country
seems te lead outside the city. It U
sold that this is the sole Issue.
All three men have made enviable
records in their respective fields. Dr.
Herrlck hes been president of Girard
College, for a number of years, an edu
cator in the public school system of the
city in various capacities, nnd has had
much experience eh n lecturer and
writer.
Dr. Smith Is new state commissioner
of cducatldn in Massachusetts, has been
en instructor and superintendent of
schools in various cities. He also has
written extensively.
Dr. Wilsen has had an extensive and
particularly successful experience as au-.
perlntendcnt of schools In a number et
cities in the West and as a writer. Hit
