The blessing of Democracy will flow only "insofar as it represents the rule of an intelligent and clutured people," Secretary Hughes declared In a paper on the "aims in American education," rea dhere tonight before the National Education association. "The American ideal," the secretary said, "and it must be maintained if we are to rnigitate disapointment and unrest is the ideal of equal educational opportunity, not merely for the purpose of enabling one to know how to earn a living, and to fit into an economic status more or less fixed, but of giving ply to talent and aspiration and to the development of mental and spiritual powers." The increased demand for educa tional opportunities and the extraor dinary efforts to supply new facilities for high education were encouraging, Mr. Hughes said, but he added that there was apparent "much confusion with respect to the standards and aims" of education. Vocational train ing the teaching of the means to earn a livihood, he said, would be taken care of, but he added: "Democracy cannot live on bread alone, it is not enough that one shall be able to earn a living, or a good living. This is the foundation, but not the structure.

What is needed is to have life more abundantly." It was important, Mr. Hughes contended that "the door of hope be kept open," by maintaining opportunities and standards of general education, "thus giving to those who start amid the direst necessities and with slender advantages, the chance to rise." Speaks to Labor. "This Is of especial importance to our working poople," he continued, "who are not to be viewed as mere economic units, but as our co-laborers in the great enterprises of human progress. As to educational standards, he said: "it is impossible to provide a system of general education and ignore the need of discipline. The sentimentalists are just as dangerous as the materialists.

Life is not a pastime and democracy Is not a holiday excursion. It needs men trained to think. "The sentimentalists must not be allowed to ruin us by dissipating the energy that should be harnessed for our varied needs." The true Object of education was to give training "which will enable one to make the most that is, the best of one's self," Mr. Hughes said, adding: "We must realize that the foundation should be laid in a few studies of the highest value. In self-discipline.

This means self-denial, hard work, the inspiration of teachers with vision and an appreciation of the privileges and obligations of citizenship in Democracy." Must Be Accurate. In elementary bchuola this means training "which insists, at whatever cost." the secretary said, "on the mastery by the student of the subject before him on accuracy, the lack of which, I regret to say. Is now conspicuous in students of all grades. "1 am one of those who believe in1 the classical and mathematical training, and i do not think taut we have found any satisfactory substitute for it. Put the important point is the insistence upon consciousness and thor oughness." Mr.

Hughes held that too much had been done in college to encourage "intellectual vagrancy," so th.il a "college education, outside technical schools may mean little nothing." We liHve given tix start attention to the demands of training for citizenship" he said "that implies adequate knowledge -f our institutions, of their development and working. It means more thun this in a world of new intimacies and complexities. It means adequate knowie.igf of wlher lples and for this purpose there is I nothing to take the place of thj hu- 1 inanities, of the -studv of tit lure 'and hisory."
