BRITISH EDUCATION BILL
TO SMOOTH THE ROAD TO THE UNIVERSITY. By Telegraph-Press Association—Copyright London, July 23. In the House of Commons, Mr. Pease, President of the Board 'of Education, in introducing tho one-clauso Education Bill, outlined the Government's intentions for 1914. A complete Education Bill would prove costly, but this Bill would do for secondary education what Mr. Forster's Bill did for elementary education. Tho new nieasnre would not affect the elementary system or the voluntary schools, but provide a broad, smooth road from the elomcntary school to tho University, and remove tho grievances of Nonconformists with regard to the singlo 6chools area. It would compel the local authorities to provide nursery, technical, and secondary schools, baths, playing fields, meals for poor children, and holidays. It would rcmovo tho ration limitation that had been placed on local authorities. The Government, added Mr. Pease, would grant a substantial subsidy to carry out the scheme.
